Read more After losing his parents in a car accident, Ryan immediately caught his fiancee cheating on him with his best friend. In just a few days, he lost everything he loved, so Ryan decided to buy a house in the mountains to process all those events. However, something happened before he could even enter his new home: the end of the world.Monsters began to appear out of nowhere, and dragons began to dominate the skies. After losing everything, Ryan, who had lost his sense of reality, found new goals with the world in that state: survive and get stronger. Dungeons, classes, monsters, skills, the chance to obtain the DNA of other monsters... Ryan was decided to use them all because he no longer would become a spectator in his own life. Maybe with power, he won’t lose anything anymore. Collapse System, Dragon, Modern Day, Skill Books, Skill Assimilation, LitRPG, Male Protagonist Alright. So I read the entire novel, all 1006 chapters and here is my review. I'm going to tell what was bad and then what was good followed by my rating.CONSThe pacing felt inconsistent. Sometimes it felt like a snooze fest where he is clearing dungeons and saying "Oh man I need to get stronger" for like 100 chapters and others it feels like he is getting stronger exponentially and killing gods/god level beings in just a couple hits.The MC's personality and character development. Throughout most of the story Ryan is a complete asshole to everyone for no good reason other than to be "The cool and edgy lone wolf protagonist" and throughout the story he hardly gets better.The length of the novel. Now this one is kinda obvious as I imagine it is incredibly difficult to make an interesting narrative for 1000 chapters and even then rush the ending slightly.Okay now I'm going too move onto the good stuff.PROSThe fight seems. Oooh the fight seems. Now it might seem hard to imagine but the fight seems throughout the whole novel are amazing and at the least very good. They somehow manage to stay fresh for 1000 chapters even with so many different characters and unique abilities.Side characters. Some of the major side characters in this book are amazing like Femradiel, Merlin, Isis, and Loki. Good god they are so entertaining and they actually feel like real characters rather than just plot devices and some of them like Femradiel even have character development.The story and plot. Now let me explain. The first like 200 chapters are amazing and exciting and keep you on the edge of your seat and then the quality suddenly drops. Now let me tell you that from chapters 300 to about 650 moderately boring and repetitive but still contains some fun so If you can make it through that it picks up again and starts to get really good. And at the end Ryan's character gets so much better.Now let me talk about the elephant in the room. The whole being cucked by his best friend thing. In the story it is a relatively large plot point and the motivation for a lot of Ryan's actions, it doesn't really affect the main story all too much. All I'm going to tell you about it is that there are explanations for actions, regret for those actions from the members involved, forgiveness at some point, and no cliche revenge plot besides some casual antagonizing because it becomes so much of a non-issue compared to everything else.So here is my out of ten review.8/10It's pretty good Ok, this is where I drop. No one can have every single one of their weaknesses exposed both physically and mentally and not change a bit, the mc is inflexible and a hypocrite. He's shown growth only in stats and skills with no room for improvement elsewhere, this was his chance to grow in some form aside from a new bow and arrow. I can't sit through 200 more chapters just for the mc to say "I was an asshole" and kumbaya with everyone he has treated like shit, I mean for f#cks sake, he who is one of the few minuscule people that knows the power they hold is but a mere speck This captivating story features game system, leveling up, system rewards and delivers an unforgettable reading experience.
