Mangahero18 chapter 3 . 7/22
Again, the math is wrong...Hadvar should have ended up with 48 Rep at the beginning of the chapter. Also, I don't like ID Create as a concept...grinding is boring to do in a game let alone read about. Having the MC gain levels through adventures and interactions with characters is way more organic and fun to read.

Hold on. Your math is a bit wack here. Hadvar went from 16 rep to 20 with plus 5. It should have been 21. Then he went from 20 to 37 with plus 11? Did I miss something?

Lame. Everyone always choses mage and fucking elementalist. Why not Bard or Druid? Or a Rogue? No one ever chooses rogue in these gamer fics cause they just wanna blow shit up in real life.

really enjoyed this story so far. its written well. i like that he can get super powerful in a realistic way via work ethic without the usual wank fest or Deus ex machina a lot of fanfiction out there gives us.
As he moves from reality to reality, is he going to keep some previous powers and skill at max, and the rest nerfed to keep the appearance of “fair play” if so i think thats the recipe for a well done story.
in saying all that i do like wank fest stories if it’s not super overboard.(n0 h0m0)

Really hate when this happens. Author gets bored of the storyline and scraps the whole thing with no warning. All the build up from the story just evaporates from one chapter to the other. I get that this is just a hobby to most people, but it's still disappointing as fuck.

This story is amazing but summons in gamer fics are always a massive turn off for me ima keep reading but I hope it doesn’t do this often

I was about to rage at you for how stupid and out of character the MC was being before you showed it as a memory.

Would he know about the no maj term if he hadn't seen the movie?

So he's going to lose his no sleep bonus to dreams now?

Another problem with bringing companions along is that you have to spend an annoying amount of time bringing them up to speed in whatever world you're in. A useless info dump. At this point you just have me wishing death on Victoria.

Your plans were dashed because you don't think quickly on your feet. Stop blaming the difficulty spike.

lol. You actually made him a Malfoy? Good stuff.

If I recall correctly he didn't start with the instant dungeon skill last time either. He got it as a mission reward. Props for doing it that way. ID create isn't actually a gamer skill. It's a unique magic of the world the gamer takes place in. So it's great that you actually made him earn it as opposed to naturally having it. Anyway that's why his punk self should have taken it as his choice instead of a companion who's probably been turned into a wizard.

What gamer rules are the NPCs bound to? Logically I'm not sure giving them a ton of mastered classes would necessarily make them them have a lot of health or MP. I also don't think they would be bound to only starting a class once you mastered another.

Seemed like a pretty stupid way to die. I suppose that's what happens when the MC is retarded. He should have been launching the fireballs and oil after seeing that lightning chain didn't work the first time. He should have tried to use ID to escape. Had he been properly grinding his challenges this probably wouldn't have happened. Instead he whines about not being given enough time when he seemed that all he needed to win was a narrow hallway and 2-3 spells. Maybe he should have spent more time training instead of trying to maintain relationships.

Anyway the summary is a spoiler. Telling us that he's currently in the Harry Potter world let me know that something was about to happen.

He chooses to take Victoria. It's stupid things like that which got him killed in the first place. He should have taken the ID create skill. He picks a low tier companion over any number of useful things. We have no indication that just because they're a companion means they'll be buffed for the world in question. Put her in DBZ and she'd likely have to train for decades just to be fodder. Not to mention that it's said that you're only allowed one thing from your previous world. There's no way he's not going to find someone stronger eventually or some very valuable skill. This just seems like a reason to not throw away a character you spent so much time developing. Based entirely off of those two speculations I'm predicting that you'll force a romantic relationship between them to explain why he keeps lugging her around to world after world when there are obviously better things available. If anything his focus on having a companion is partly what led to his death. Otherwise he would have been free to grind zombies as much as possible and wouldn't have lost XP trying to keep up appearances. Hope you prove me wrong.

Don't really know why he fought the spider like that. I'd have launched the stone spikes at it to attempt to pin it to the wall or floor.

And he couldn't use his wind pulling spell on the chain? Or try to pull it down with earth spikes?
vincent1875 chapter 11 . 6/21
I see you finally remembered about the spell challenges. There's no way he went through the zombie wave a dozen times without completing them though.

I'm surprised he's letting her get so many kills. He seems to care about XP enough to not want her to be stealing so much. I'd have been chain lightning-ing every group I found. Though I guess the zombie dungeon can up that challenge easily enough.

Who cares about your backstory? Being the sociopath he is he'll probably just murder whoever it is to cover his tracks.

The name of the horse riding skill is different from the knight class and archer class.

Your thoughts have already been changed by Gamer's Mind. No use complaining about it now. Well, if you're going to hate anything unreasonably then undead are a good thing to focus on.
vincent1875 chapter 8 . 6/20
At least his merchant occupation is finally showing some worth.

No ring of nighteye? I had one of those things in my kit for the majority of Oblivion.
