explains a lot. I was wondering why this looked so much better written than 90% of the new novels

so basically a fantasy simulator copy right

I loved 'The legendary Mechanic' and till chapter 20 this novel seems promising, i just hope this novel is as much good as previous one or maybe better in later chapters, hope this gets picked up.

For the novels i do (and probably to my team), we try to take things 1 step further to not just simply translate but to also make it easier to read. Our rates might not justify the efforts put in but I rather not submit a substandard piece of work and destroy a perfectly good book.

man... i see everyone comparing this to FS, is it that similar? I've never picked it up since it's still ongoing, but maybe I should... 🤔

Sin_of_GREEDLv14

actually considering what i read so far till ch 30 i can definitely say fantasy simulator is much better than this one thou this one is quite good but definitely not deserving the hype of TLM

I wonder what the novel will look like in the future. all I expect is cool special abilities like the legendary mechanic and cool mechanisms and systems that the story is based on that gives a good novel depth and some background stuff to think on.

Fantasy Simulator or Way of the Devil copy. There were a couple more i think. As for legendary mechanic, sure it was pretty good novel, but lately i read almost 2k chapters of "i have bunch of players on earth", and this one was much better reading experience, so many characters with personalities, many person of views, almost each of them so likeable, one of the best written world backgrounds in this setting. It had its shortcomings but at least they were unique to other novels' ;)

"I have bunch of players on earth" is the only one out of its kind, at least i can't recall anything similar as a whole out of ~1200 novels I've seen. The whole picture is alive. The author setted up a very grand stage with lifelike characters to participate in it. It almost feels like a real world just that there's that lack of realism. It does have some things resembling stuff from Legendary Mechanic, Gamers of the Underworld, Shepherding Humanity, Way of the Devil, Fantasy Simulator, that academy mecha novel and and many more but it creates a vastness out of them and can contain much much more. Just the power system alone is very elaborate, e.g. MC's earthlings can choose to develop their own civilization, from elf civilization, mechanical civilization, developer civilization to a cultivator civilization. All of them have their own strengths and weaknesses. At early chapters action mostly takes place on "modern" Earth (or rather alternative Earth - since there's sects, a hidden world secret, void sealed, and a cultivator who already resonates with Earth's will which is already a level that a native shouldn't be able to reach). The novel didn't feel boring, really had fun everyday, but the author set the bar so high up (much much higher than Lord of the Mysteries and the like) that he failed, as a human, to tie things up satisfingly especially towards the end where he speeds up arcs, makes characters meet unnaturally, skips developments i wanted to witness etc. Because the vastness he created is impossible to be contained in one novel. Basically each of these character's perspective could be made into a separate novel e.g. they could be placed in academy, on some native world, in abyss, in void, undead realms and just progress like it did with New Territory world arc but with just 1 main character instead of dozens of them on same world. Because each native world is enough to contain a whole novel if the author wanted to. And he wrote about billions of such worlds with galaxy forces still expanding outward.. To compare, for example, in other novels it's usually 1 MC, an enemy he has to beat during an arc, and sometimes a neutral force or a mastermind that benefits from their conflicts. But here? The first high-level battle arc included 10 or more different sides: 2 full lord forces from galaxy and 2 commander-level guys from even a stronger lord force (they came there from outside, coordinates). Then from those that were in the world already, there's MC's side, Lich's side, the ancient somewhat neutral side living in the hidden realm of the native world, another fairy ancestral woman with sealed memories that was taking over bodies, an undead that made symbiosis with host. Also the native forces in the background (human side that was divided into islands-various kingdoms, with knights and mages- and mainland, where they built one kingdom and war with orc side). Also the parasite mechanical race lone force. Other than that, there were also hired mercenaries or "allies" with unclear motives, their own goals, thoughts, considerations. So... yeah, the arc which opened up the galaxy for MC's "players" took almost 1k chapters alone;p Legendary Mechanic's Gondor arc was like a child play. And around 1.7k chapter there's another big battle arc where about 8 lord forces contend against each other while trying to colonize the world where they fight native world's "gods" and "evil gods" (they already did since early chapters as the process of deciding a winner the world apparently takes at least thousands of years which is somewhat of a plot hole - without long timeskips the main characters would have to join such battlefields that take place in many parts of galaxy towards the end, have a super quick way of solving it, or otherwise they can only join the fun actively for short breaths while the boring moments or cleanups would have to be left in background, progressing passively).

Fantasy Simulator really is better compared to the first 30 chapters, but I still like this book better, simply because you wrote the plot better. Thanks for that, chuchutrain (and the team) 😁 I simply couldn't keep reading Fantasy Simulator after he gets this OP clone for no reason. Or rather, it's because I stopped reading for a while and then came back and couldn't continue. But I still think that FS is translated pretty well, it's just that the translator is no overachiever.

The chapters are split up. Chapter 40(1) on webnovel is actually chapter 19 MTL/RAW. The site smuggled in a new business opportunity - splitting the chapters. In this case, they gave us less than 19 full chapters. Used to be 60.. 40.. What a magic! Of deception. The first chapters.. are unpolished by the author in my opinion. But if it improves later on then it's fine. There's some bland, stiff dialogue, unnatural behaviour, forced plot. The high rating's reason? Author's name does the job, for example. Besides, there's potential, just that the execution so far is average. The MC got [Agility] talent, then after using it he calls himself talented while being serious. Ha ha ha.. :D It's one of these novels where the one that takes MC role is decided by system (or well, apparently it's his Super ability). The author doesn't bother to write about the process of e.g. overcoming a language barrier. Just use system and... done, problem solved. For convenience... Grown men shown so far have somewhat flawed, unsuitable mentality for the roles they play (apparently they are experienced hunters but I wonder how they grew up and how they survived till now in such a dangerous world). The MC himself is alright, a bit dumb, a sheltered flower, no survival skills, so whatever logic or reasoning he comes up with is fine:) Hopefully he'll grow up as his adventures continue, or else be prepared for masterminds to have less IQ than he does. The author chose to write a novel with system and copied a popular idea. What was his motivation for this, one could wonder. In the same batch of trials, the author of "Protect our Patriarch(Chief)" actually roasted this kind of system novels. My comment is based only on the 19 (split into 40) chapters translated right now, because I have not touched MTL. If I read more chapters in future I'll either re-write my comment or add a fresh one with proper rating. 19 is not much after all and the subsequent might have a higher quality, I don't know. There are novels like World's Best Martial Artist, Museum of Deadly Beasts, A Sorcerer's Journey, Black Iron's Glory and many more that had even more boring, or cliche, or flawed initial chapters yet turned out to be much much better as I continued to read. It might also be the case with Astral Apostle.

Kingdom Building Game: Starting Out With A Million Upgrade Points!

"World conquest was never part of the plan." Yu Chen was just an ordinary programmer, slaving away at his desk, fixing bugs for a popular kingdom-building game. His life was a cycle of endless work, sleepless nights, and little appreciation. One fateful night, while struggling to fix a game-breaking bug that granted players an absurd amount of upgrade points, his exhausted heart gave out. But death wasn't the end for Yu Chen. He awoke in a world strangly familiar... he had transmigrated into the very game he had been working on, now inhabiting the body of a notorious tyrant emperor, Arkanos Bloodbane, whose empire was on the brink of destruction. Surrounded by enemies, with rebellions simmering within and war on every front, Yu Chen, now Arkanos, quickly realizes the gravity of his situation. But to his shock, he discovers that he still has access to the game's system interface—complete with the million upgrade points from the bug he had tried to fix! With his knowledge of game mechanics, strategic mind, and a wealth of upgrade points, Arkanos sets out to turn the crumbling empire into an unstoppable force. He begins by summoning legendary heroes, deploying advanced technologies never before seen in this world, and revolutionizing his military and infrastructure. As he pushes his empire to greatness, Arkanos must navigate the treacherous politics of the imperial court, fend off treacherous factions, and outmaneuver the rival nations that seek to destroy him. But with each victory, he realizes that this world is not just a game—it's his new reality. The stakes are higher, the dangers more real, and the consequences of failure more dire than ever.
