Heads Up... (Not A Chap, But Must read)
Hey everyone, I've been getting some feedback about the story, of how things are actually rushed recently. This is my bad if it came off that way. I apologize, and I'll try and improve my way of writing *without making chapters unnecessarily descriptive*
However, I kinda wanted to tell you guys that I don't like stories that has a bunch of useless characters and dialogued events. I kinda of wanted to stray away from that sort of thing to focus only on the mc and not give side characters half the of well, the story.
Thirdly, I don't think my viewers are looking at this story in the way it should be viewed. The mc as I've said has NO META KNOWLEDGE ON THE MARVEL UNIVERSE (He only knows few characters in the universe). I've said this to others before, and I want to make it clear here. So when others say mc should have done this, or that, they mostly run scenarios with my mc that isn't really logical when people are in a situation like his.
People read too much of older marvel stories and have gotten used to their formula, and I want to break said predictable formula. (Hence no one has actually predicted the events in my story). Good luck for those who tried, but it ain't gonna work here, I'll tell you that much.
No matter how intelligent you are, humans wont adapt to things so quickly, sure, they can be calm, but that doesn't inherently mean that have adapted to said situation. Think of trained bomb specialists when they try to defuse literal bomb, they CLEARLY fear death, yet they remain collected enough to make decisions and sometimes mistakes that cost them their lives...
Another thing that I've noticed is that people here are (from what I gather) want a somewhat cold Mc (they won't admit it and if so, this story isn't for you either). And BECAUSE He has the super genius ability, they think that said Intellect will make him ruthless, and know everything, but contrary to popular belief, it doesn't make you a colder person, it makes you warmer or better person instead (shockingly).
Others straight up think the Mc is becoming a hero, which is... Idk what to say about that one...
The mc isn't a hero, he is empathetic however, people think this is a unrealistic trait because he felt sorry for his bully ONCE (mind you the mc is a 30+ year old man), sure it is uncommon, but not to such a massive degree. I'll also tell you from the get go, the mc wont ever be a hero, in this story, his approach is to survive and just because he wants to, doesn't mean he has to be ruthless and cold blooded about it, but this doesn't mean he's a push over either, the mc will change over time, as he will be colder than he is now (no shit).
So think of his alignment being that of an anti-hero (kind off), he won't go out of his way to save lives really, and will help if he is in the vicinity to (like a block away). He will not be afraid to kill either...
Additionally, I wanted to talk about my decision of making the Mc stick with the X-men, which he isn't really doing, in fact he's using them to his advantage by learning about them and using their facilities to train himself. People look at this decision from a meta perspective, but the mc is looking at it from a person who got into contact with heroes, it seems to be a worse decision to not be on their good side and knowing them. He had a month to do so and train.
People also question that the mc never needed to knock out wolverine, which is true. But the battle wouldn't have changed even if wolverine was up, he would just get slapped around. Plus, the mc realizes how he grows in power as well, near death exp and hard fights, as well as his pride in fighting. He doesn't like team battles, hence the knockout too, which is from his Hanma side kicking in.
Lastly, I want to go back on how his intellect works here. For one, I don't know why people think that he has actually have a lapse in his decisions (I really need to hear this one). And how he (coincidentally) Has meta knowledge. Which even I'm confused about lol. Mc remembers some characters, that's all) so guys, please don't bring this up (his apparent random meta knowledge IQ amps).
As of rn, his IQ is that of academic knowledge mostly, he still has to adapt to people in this world, so his conversation wont make sense for a little bit since the story is slow paced, but they wont be dumb either. When the story progresses, you will have the perfect mc you all want, and a smart mc that barely makes mistakes, who is a survivor and isn't a push over either, be patient, if you can't. This story isn't for you.
