THE ABANDONED TAMER’S RETURN: MASTER OF BEASTS AND STEEL

Not my cup of tea ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Literally they are making you pay for a story that has been finished since almost 4 years ago and they didn’t even do the translations, just copy and paste.

Well if you can get past the initial confusion and somewhat rushed beginning, it's not a terrible read. I've found it to be interesting so far anyway. MC is ruthless and the plot takes a minor twist. I'll keep reading once it's released fully.

Initial Impressions~ The novel starts off with a short flashback in the form of a dream where he was once a professional "CSGO" player in the finals of a major competition. The noteworthy point of the flashback is the "black-mask" he wears during the competition with his identity hidden from others similar to the actions of a professional Hearthstone player/streamer named "DisguiseToast". The "black-mask" can be seen from the cover art of the novel. The world is made to be as realistic as possible although not sure if that is going to change in the later chapters.The main character is equipped with a higher level of gaming skills (maybe overpowered) where he acquired but have to quit from a game in the past due to some reason. I do get a "King's Avatar" Vibe from this starting point. However, the MC personality wise is more of a lesser-jerk who have a sister-complex and may potentially be interested in little girls. Basically, his relationship with his younger stepsister turn sour when he mistreated her early on so he tries to mend the relationship in an invasive manner. The author probably wrote a flawed MC so that he can be corrected in future development and the MC is not all that terrible in attitude to make you despise him. The character development in the novel is well done because we can fully imagine how the appearance of the MC looks like and his traits. Moreover, the side characters does have a brief colorful description of themselves so their interactions with the MC will be more realistic. The author really focuses his attention on the character development.The author would throw-in frequent Japanese terms/culture in the story such as loli, anime and oni-chan as well as plenty of swearing in the MC's monologue. The novel do not use the "stuck in virtual game" or the "I have a problem so I need the game to earn money solo" trope so there would be a heavy mix of real lifestyle and gaming on PC with other real players commenting from the sidelines instead. The novel is highly immersive in the world of "PUBG" and it is advisable you know the game mechanics beforehand like the type of guns and landing phase to fully enjoy the action. The author have written in the way that stay true to how a "PUBG" match is played and the novel would likely be the 'truest' gaming novel here in QIDIAN. Translators does have a good reputation of providing high quality reads while conveying the wordplay/quotes/references the author utilize.Overall, I recommend you give the novel a try unless you dislike novels that focus on one match for too long or the slower story development due to heavy emphasis on the character.
