Writing this review after finishing the first volume (100 chapters).
Positives:
- Dark and gritty, with a mature writing style
- Unpredictable - things don't always go the MC's way, or the way you're expecting
- Refreshing - in a very oversaturated "system" genre, the author manages something very different
- There is a decent balance of significant plot events and slice of life sections
- The world grows with the MC, there aren't any overwhelming knowledge dumps
- I personally enjoy the insight in the authors comments, demonstrating their thoughts, opinions and growth as an author
Negatives:
- Can be confusing at times
- As a weak MC, he spends a distressing amount of time injured
- MC seems to lack any motivation outside of staying alive so far, spending most of his time following the whims of those stronger than him - hoping this will change at some point
