Honestly my new favorite and to be clear, while I am no critic and will probably read just about anything, my standards have just been raised dramatically. I started this read a long time ago (stopped right around chapter 5) and only recently picked it up again, thank God I did, because this is the first time I've seen this many genre's and tags, all of which I love, so perfectly blended together. I don't want to start writing to much, both due to this being my first review and me not trusting myself not to spoil anything, so I'll leave it at this. Read a little past chapter 5, if you are like me, you will most certainly understand just the kind of gold mine you've stumbled upon. Have a wonderful read.

Reveal spoiler

I read until chap 23 with high expectations considering that one of my first novels was Reaper of the Martial World, that sadly I dropped at around 400 chaps for overly complicating things. I was like, the author must have accumulated his fair share of experience all this considered. While this novel is good, the MC's character and drive or better said lack of make it hard to read. many would say character development, I would say the author over complicating things, you either man up or die, oh he is alive because of his really good ability aka Plot Armor not because he is tough. If you ask me for this kind of world an anti-hero is the best, him? Well he has 0 plans just going along following the female lead that, incredibly is more manly than he is, like a dog in love. Idk why I hoped for something worth reading, I mean the more you hope the bigger the dissapointment.

In all my time, I’ve never quite read a book like this. So many books overpromise and flood there stories with far too many genres and tags that character or world developement ends up severely lacking. Not here. This is the only book I have ever read to be able to seamlessly and cohesively string together apocalypse, dungeons, clans, abilities, and steady developement etc and still have an amazingly gripping storyline. The MC is lovestricken but still has the readers rooting for him, and still presents a highly admirable and powerful persona. The ideas the author presents ARE NOT GENERIC. I feel like I speak for everyone when I say we see far too many dungeon and apacolypse stories that all seem poorly thought out and borderline plagiarism on this app. Its like a breath of fresh air to see romance and apocalypse and dungeons presented in a way that I have yet to see anywhere else at such a high level. Author all I can say is thank you and keep up the incredible work. ;) P.S. the only reason for not having a full 5 star review is that we are still discovering the world and therefore not all has been revealed. I also feel like if I’m more honest and realistic the book will gain more traction than with shameless and reasonless 5 star reviews.

Started with a different work of the author's. Subtle recommendation for RMW. Jumped to DD. Binged the whole story within a few hours. Was it worth it? Yes. Would I recommend someone else to do the same? Also, yes. Will you enjoy reading an author bemoan the consequences of his success? I did. Will contribute to his suff- *cough* *cough* success? Yes. Story has a great MC. World slowing being built, and is leaving very realistic, yet fantastic situations to take place. Supporting cast is having foundation slowly being set, but not a whole lot is being told or described about them besides a little about his best friend and the female lead. Author has an awesome portfolio to show his character writing, so if nothing else, the interactions between characters will draw you in. Not a lot of story written so far, but I look forward to his continued success. Give it about 5 chapters if you aren't feeling sure after the first. Respect the Game. Persist to the End.

Dimensional Descent is a story about Leonel Morals and him trying to become as strong as possible as his world starts evolving to the next dimension. Originally, I gave this novel a better score, maybe it's just because I'm burnt out, but looking back on the novel it really isn't as good as I previously stated. Writing quality is great, there isn't many mistakes if you aren't specifically looking for them. (5/5 stars) Story development is where I'm most conflicted. You see, I really can't call it bad when I've read to nearly a thousand chapters. However, I feel like I just walked a thousand steps only to realize theres an innumerable amount of steps more. I have read to chapter one thousand, only to realize the story has gone a little everywhere, while at the same time nowhere. The only difference from the start of the novel and now is that the main character is stronger, and has more connections. It is chapter 1000, and there is still no direction for the novel. The main character has fought so many different organizations, strong enemies, etc, but looking back on it they were all pointless as it feels like none of this helped the main character's non-existent goal. How many more chapters will it take for the story to gain direction? I'm kind of tired of reading about so many "unique" characters only for all of them to be later deemed irrelevant. Aside from all this, I've long lost track of how people "progress". The main character has already done five hundred different ways to get stronger, and they all feel super exaggerated until the main character fights someone. Listen, even if you constantly say "it's a miracle for someone like the main character to fight x." I don't buy it. The main character has such a ridiculously overpowered ability that I feel is super underplayed and overplayed at the same time. His ability does everything, just not that well compared to something else. This story is the definition of the phrase "Jack of all Trades, Master of None." (2/5 stars) As for character design, I can't give an honest answer at this point. All the characters are logical, and do actions that make sense of their character. This might be due to the story rather than the characters, but theres nothing unpredictable about these characters. In one thousand chapters there is not a single character that has surprised me with their actions. Rather disappointing. Aside from that, the main character has such ridiculously slow character development it's stupid. The main character has had a "lot" of character development if you want to play with semantics, but absolutely nothing has changed. His character is the exact same, except he thinks a bit differently on a few things. It's annoying. These characters aren't substantial at all, they all feel hollow with the outline of logic. Also, I will never understand the relationship between Aina and Leonel, it feels like it changes every chapter. Aside from the first portion of the novel, it's basically just Leonel chasing after Aina constantly, and Aina constantly leaving to do something else whilst saying shes in love with Leonel. It's annoying. This is still happening at chapter 1000, and I feel like this whole relationship is too tedious to make sense. (2/5 stars) World background is a mess. They have introduced so many things and none of them conflict with each other. It feels like a world with no standard, no rules. It genuinely feels like the author is just making things up as they go along. This is doubly so for the power scaling/development, theres so many ways to progress, the "best" path for the main character changes whenever the author feels like he didn't praise the main character's overwhelming might enough. Politics are a mess to be honest. I never really understood half of what the author was ranting about. This is a world of dimensions, where the higher the dimensions the stronger the people and planets are. According to the author, a 4th dimensional existence is a god to a 3rd dimensional existence. In theory. The problem with this is it's basically irrelevant the entire story as the main character fights so many people stronger than him it's ridiculous. Aside from that, world background has the same problem that lies with character design and story development. There is a LOT of world background, but nothing really substantial. It feels like they are just padding it out instead of making sure the base is solid. (2/5 stars) Overall, this is a fairly good story superficially. Once you dig deeper you'll realize theres nothing really there, and it gets hard to read. Don't get me wrong, the characters are great, and the fights are thrilling. However I almost immediately got burnt out realizing it was chapter 1000 and realized the story basically hadn't progressed from stage 1. The author is great at writing, but the author made the story go in the wrong direction. I give this novel 3.2 stars out of 5.

This story could be so good but the author refuses to not focus on the character Aina. The entirety of the main characters will and desires is focused on her regardless of what she does. There's been no explanation in 600 chapters of reading as to why he does this. It just becomes unbearable and its to an unreasonable degree.

Hello! If you want to see what a novel that manages to perfectly fuse dungeons/systems/the apocolypse/ and zombies in a completely new and novel way looks like, you've come to the right place! Exaggerated praise aside, I think this is one of my best works yet. I've learned a lot over my years as a web novelist and I've poured everything I have into Dimension Descent. I hope you'll come out loving the characters, world and story as much as I did while writing it.

Simp MC with a savior complex. Female lead is a higher status and I’m willing to bet probably a higher talent than him. Brilliantly written, I just personally don’t think I can read the typically good-two-shoes simp chasing after Mary Sue nonsense.
