Review Detail of NikTitanik866 in The Legendary Junkmaster

Since I have reached chap 97 I think it is time to give this a lengthy review. First I'll do it according to webnovel and then I shall rant. DO NOT read the rant if you don't want spoilers. WRITING QUALITY I really have no criticism here. The grammar is good, the story is fluid. Dialogues are put well and you can easily follow who says what. Overall, a pleasant surprise here. STORY DEVELOPMENT Very nice honestly. The world is alive and functions without the protagonist. There is an element of mystery surrounding the plot which enhances the stakes and makes progression all the more enjoyable. I do have a few things here that I dislike but that will come in the rant part. CHARACTER DESIGN The characters are alive! They actually think and aren't just your cardboard cutouts of stereotypes. The MC shows his intelligence and doesn't just pull it out of nowhere like many other "genius" protagonists. The side cast could do with a bit more work but nothing major. WORLD BACKGROUND I've already said that the world is alive. There is an actual economy in the background. There are shops and vendors and whatnot, not just your typical black market auctions. The apocalypse is also relevant in the way people of this novel think and act. The world is consistent. RANTING I hate when tech type MCs don't explore their creative abilities beyond just making armoured suits and weapons. I want an MC that will make a car/plane/ship or any other vehicle. There is more to machines than just mechs and such. He made a powered armour that can run for more than an hour and also take a beating, but his knowledge and tools are still extremely rudimentary? How is he not making just your general appliances, eg a fridge would probably be a revolution. Running water has also been identified as a problem, why not solve that? Making a buggy to explore the ruins of the old world would probably also be a pretty high-priority goal. Speaking of vehicles, there is a critical lack of them in here. The logistics of the Lord's territory puzzle me. How are materials transported between cities? Is it only Rust doing the transport? If so why has there been no mention of the transport mess that was certainly happening during the tournament? Are there other ways of transport? Trains or zeppelins? Are there are no zeppelins because of idk birds, why not mention that? I hope the world expands because it really holds a lot of potential.
