About 10 hours into 'I Am NOT the Hero'. It's pretty good so far. Don't care for the "admin" voice for class names and skills but other than that. Pretty enjoyable so far.

On book 17 of Defiance of the Fall, my skimming over the cultivation skills has leveled up!

Holy stat inflation. When this series started he was really trying to get his strength up. Hitting 20 was a big deal and as he got close to 100 I was thinking, he'll probably just shift to other stats. He did, but that didn't stop inflation. His strength is now 495, 413 with 256% efficiency. This means he'll likely be over a million pretty soon. They did mention that he's up there with most gods so maybe that means we are towards the end of inflation...naw. Other than that it hasn't been a bad read, probably my only other huge complaint is that nothing happens without it taking several chapter. I mean nothing. Like he has to travel for a day to get somewhere..he's going to run into a time dilation that takes 80 years. He decides to stop and consolidate his gains (that means think about them) it'll take a week. Ill be glad to move on at this point

My biggest problem with it is that there's just too much for him to upgrade.

He has his three daos, his heart, his soul, his body cultivation, his weapon, his pet vines, his core, his bloodline, his nodes, his hidden nodes... and I'm sure I've forgotten several things.

he duplicates it all with a second body meaning he has to do it all twice

It drags the story itself to a screeching halt repeatedly.

Plus he's responsible for his team, not to mention the whole sector.

Been going down Chrysalis, on book 3. The commie aligned ant is uhh, I guess fitting but a bit off putting at first. Book 1 was kinda hard to get into. But I've found myself enjoying it more in book 2 and 3. I like the tidbits with the human characters more than the main story, but the main story isn't bad either.

Finished book 1 of "I'm NOT the hero" and rather enjoyed it. Just now starting book 2.

Both friends mesh well and the pacing is pretty decent. I really like the fact that though they have advantages they don't level insanely fast and the power vs. Level isn't skewed too bad.
