szlekane chapter 33 . 7/22
where are the updates?

I don't mind the lemons but damn I wished he'd go and steal those 3 dreadnoughts and use it to wipe out grim and level up by using lures!

Also you can make Remnant the post apocalyptic earth after a catastrophe that shattered the moon and wiped out most of the humans forcing them to interbreed and to add uniqueness in the gene's bam Faunus and Magic experimentation using the new resources produced by Remnants of the catastrophe "DUST" and accidentally creating GRIM.

Wow. I hadn’t read this story since the Maiden thing. Reread the whole thing since it had been so long, and I’m reminded just why this is so high on the favorites list. Looking forward to your next piece.
Vansmoke chapter 9 . 7/20
it goes harem-dark? kinda boring and easy to predict when harem tag is on. no picking side when plucking flowers. i guess end quest would be dominating salem and make her his bitch slave, then rule the world.

the plot is good; gamer fic. but with "dating mode" thingy? it just killed it. no sense of going on romance building, kind of just wish fullfilment.

and when his harem becomes massive, then smut dominate the genre. every chapter or perhaps per what paragraphs, there would be smut scene.

but i just started, hopefully I'm proven wrong here and it's not just "the sims" or like any other harem novel on the other webnovel site (ehem *chinese* ehem)

i really hate when romance is just; meet once, spoke little, add some bf superpower charm boost, then spend the night, girl get over him like she just got drugged or brainwashed, then another girl pops up, then repeat. no work done there, almost bland..

ugh sorry for my stupid ranting, need to work out my pent up feeling about harem genre.

so far i enjoyed the story overall, just that one thing that keep repeating itself almost makes me want to just gave up reading.
Guest chapter 8 . 7/16
I’ve loved this story so far. Couple small inconsistencies in numbers (you originally list Jun as lvl 8, then later as lvl 7). Any chance of Jaune developing a “mana storm” skill? Like a wide area bombardment?
A Simple Library chapter 14 . 7/15
God damn it, I hate the party system. How the hell are they even getting points and shit? None of them have Gamers Body and shouldn't even be able to level up like Jaune... If they're able to get skills like him, this will be a drop from me...
Bullshit101 chapter 27 . 7/12
Him being too weak despite the ultimate cheat he has bothers me.

He uses a lot of technical knowledge and probability but he misses the simple things cause he's too hung up with video game reference powers.

He is using too many skills to add buffs even though there's an option to make less. It's like a rubiks cube, 27 cubes to make a bigger cube and you have to level every small cube just to achieve what a big cube could do. Why not make a big cube at the start? A skill that encompasses all enhancements. If he did that, he'd only need to level up one skill instead of many.

He already made genjutsu for fuck's sake! Why not make the 3 hakis. Observation haki for sense and predictive combat skill, armament haki to strengthen everything (strength, speed, weapon sharpening/ strengthening, ability to attack things you normally unable to attack) and conquerors haki to basically using the sheer power of your will to make someone faint or die.

And the author is obviously nerfing his level. One moment it's difficult for him to level up even though he is killing powerful grimms and the next he level ups for weak mobs. Actually, I feel like this fanfic was abandoned cause the levels don't make sense anymore, the author made some characters too powerful but can be matched easily with bullshit skills unless he/she's going to bullshit the laws of physics.

Basically, he made the main characters into krillins and the high level ones as frieza. The disparity is too big. Even if the orig jaune did not die, they wouldn't have survived which defeats the reason why ozpin organized them to be nurtured this late.

And the aura detect bullshit was the most infuriating one! A skill the author made for the high level ones like raven, qrow...etc. cause he/she realized how tight the mc's cover is. If they don't have that bullshit skill, they wouldn't the ability to uncover his secret but that bullshit skill just made a stupid plothole where they could easily know what the fuck cinder was planning by detecting roman before he got sabotaged.

Ugh! The premise and construct was great but you fucked it up by using too many terminologies and details that it made too many plotholes to plug up.
What a shame
Xandrom chapter 22 . 7/11

LizardTongue chapter 33 . 7/10
I hope the work stuff settles down so you can come back to this.
GoMagikarp chapter 3 . 7/10
There's a lot of potential here and I could see myself liking the story a ton. That is, if it didn't check a lot of my pet peeves when it comes to Gamer stories.

First there's just way too many skills already. When the MC gets like 25 skills over the course of like 10 hours, it just becomes too much. It's my personal preference, but I like it more when the Gamer gets a few core skills that they then focus on. The trope of getting skill for literally everything just leads to a sloppy character that doesn't feel like it fits the setting since they end up being good at everything with a million powers.

Next, the fact that Jaune can simply will skills into existence makes the situation even worse. it would be one thing if he worked for them, but having zero hurdle to creating any skill (besides arbitrary stat limits) removes all tension and weight to the story. I get that you have your own explanation (high intelligence lets him do so), but that fact that he inherited high intelligence from his last life makes the "restriction" useless and unnecessary since it's given to him from the very start.

Again, just my personal preference, but Gamer stories often get out of hand very quickly when the author lets it. Where the MC is incredibly fast, strong, intelligent, charismatic, can craft masterworks, heal, fight with master level skill, and has 350 different magical powers by the end of the week.
Smartyul chapter 33 . 6/29
Well that was a long read. I love how he goes from having a rant about monogamy to being dragged along with half of the girls he knows.
Janwen chapter 1 . 6/25
Do I need to watch rwby to understand this?
Sesshomaru0215 chapter 6 . 6/24
there is an entire rant about him wanting only 1 women. first thing he did? get twins.
Sesshomaru0215 chapter 5 . 6/24
is chapter 5 too soon to kill an mc off? because the whole I'm not going to deny myself speech followed by him immediately denying him shit is just a little more irritating than when he was just being a bitch about it.
