It’s not a mistake, it’s called plot and not having an MC with OP plot armour like dozens of cliche stories have.

It’s called balance in my opinion. It’s fine to fail and learn from it but ur “forcing”ur mc to fail for the sake of plot and that is irritating to read. Hes a kryptonian and has the ego of a planet and he loses in nearly every fight u put him in. He doesn’t think with his head and doesn’t look for new ways for power. He also hasn’t acknowledged all the ridiculously op beings in the marvel/ dc verse and he claims the universe as his. Id like for him to think a bit more, plan a bit more, and actually win in a situation for once bc we’re getting knowledge in this story except for ambush’s and betrayal.

I feel they are kinda correct what's cool about your stories is that the mc doesn't win every time that's refreshing but what you did here kinda sucks cut the mc failed just like zod did you know and he is supposed to be the smartest I see what you want to do there but how about make the mc meet with People above his level where he is forced to retreat will be a better application

This whole novel is a mistake

Thank you for that helpful piece of advice, really helps me to understand what I can do better. Thank you.

No, I read those when they came out and while I understand where they're coming from, I'm not going to change the direction the story went. They had a criticism, yes, but due to the direction of the story and the decisions I have made based on my depiction of powers, there was nothing I could do with that criticism except try and avoid it in the future, which I am trying to do. That reply I read in the notification tab so it lacked content and I was drunk when I replied.

i agree with this review. read until your mc get ENSLAVED lol. doesnt want your mc have strong plot armor but you make mc act stupid, he is not strong and cant be strong with many universe, DC, Marvel, Invicible, etc etc.. he is not strong but want kingdom building ? basic of survival: Became Strong, Not became king. king without stenght is shìt. but with strenght you can became anything. his priority is not became strong but became slave. aahh, dont have to reply this author. you dont have to read my comment, im stupid so my rambling is poor, my english also broken.

If that's what you believe, then you must not be reading what you write

I know exactly what I'm writing and whether you believe that's a mistake or not, is your opinion. I'm not making my character beyond reproach or without fault. He got overconfident and arrogant and that cost him dearly, just like it would anyone. While I have taken on board the criticism people have offered and intend to not repeat it in a similar fashion that causes a backlash like this, he is not perfect. He will make mistakes that backfire upon him, so while I respect your opinion, I don't respect how you put it.

It's not about the character being perfect or not. The way you display the character's actions and write how events transpire makes it bad.

Right, well I will try to avoid doing that in the future. The way I wanted to originally portray it was as the character making a serious mistake and oversight that cost him dearly. I see now that was not clearly explained and will try to make sure that is the case in the future.
