The Oracle Paths - Reviews

i want a review for this don't mind spoiler

No because the upload schedule is abysmal.

Anyone knows why this is not updating?

It's because the author is on a long hiatus. This hiatus is always random and he only comes back to post one chapter whenever privilege chapters are about to run out on webnovel.

Idek he blames it on family problems, which is most likely the case.

Hello, shameless review from the Author. I can't give myself full marks as my english is far from perfect. However, i hope you will be able to enjoy this story despite its shortcomings.

Here are a few more informations about this novel.

I read many webnovels, from eastern/ western fantasy, to apocalypse stories, with System and Video-games sub-genre from time to time. After reading so much, i have developed a vision quite precise of what i'm seeking for in a story.

The start of this story is slow, with maybe too many info blocks in the first few chapters, but it will only improve after.

Survival, System and Apocalypse are the dominant themes. However, you will find at some point similarities (but very different in the facts) with other webnovels like Devil's Cage, Terror infinity and Ultimate evolution. The difference is that it will only be one aspect of the story.

There is one central Romance, no Harem. There will potentially be several love interests in the story, but as in real life we meet people and things happen or not.

As a Survival story, there is a Game of Throne/ Walking Dead feel that can't be avoided. Not everyone can survive but the deaths are not distributed like candies either.

At last, i attach a lot of importance to coherence. If you notice any incoherences, don't hesitate to point it out. It will be quickly fixed.

Never before has a book made me feel the need to write a review, however this one is different. The writing quality is excellent, surpassing the best Qidian has to offer and is up at the top with the likes of Supreme Magus and The Lord of the Mysteries (it’s been a long time since I’ve had to look up the definition of a word and it is an exciting prospect with this book). The story/world building is intriguing, reminiscent of Terror Infinity in premise but with its own uniqueness which makes it captivating to read. The characters are interesting as the author does his/her best to replicate all the human intricacies. I hope that this review will serve  as encouragement for the author and other readers to persevere with this story; the only reason it is not in the top 15 is because not many know of it (surpasses plenty of the garbage up there like My Vampire System for example). I hope you continue to write this book author, for my sake lol.

Action ✔️
Plot ✔️
Great Characters ✔️

This story has every element to get you hooked. Set in a dystopian world where the inhabitants of earth are transferred to, everyone is left to fend for themselves. Not only do the people have to worry about monsters, the fight for power and survival  amongst humans and alien cohabitants requires everyone to watch their backs. However, everyone is equipped with a powerful AI system called the Oracle and it up to the individual how to make the best use of it.

The story is very well-written and the plot is quite compact. The start is a bit slow but once the action starts the novel becomes unputdownable. The progression of the character is quite slow if you compare it to other novels of the same genre but that doesn't make it even a tad uninteresting. Each setting is vivid and enjoyable and the story is never a drag.

The characters each have a distinct personality. The growth of the characters' personalities border real world people making them lifelike. The chapter length is quite good, and although there is a single release daily, the chapter is a big one.

All in all, I really like this novel and would suggest everyone to give it a read. The only complaint that I have to author-san is that he should release more chapters as I cannot have enough of this novel.

Not a fan of writing reviews, but since I feel that this novel doesn't have the exposure and support it deserves and the author is sooo nice I decided to share my short humble opinion.
First of all the world building is very well made, it has similarities with the ultimate evolution. Nevertheless it's original, has a lot of potential and it's slowly but steadily presented.
There's a long introduction delving a lot into the mc's personality and worldview. For some people maybe that's a reason not to read it. For me it wasn't boring at all. I could even empathise with him occasionally. The explanations and building of his personality maybe were were a bit rough and forced in some cases, but it didn't make it unpleasant and the author said he would improve his first chapters so maybe this will not me the case in some weeks.
I am not a native speaker, I found some small and not important mistakes, but not many and they didn't make my reading experience bad.
All in all I would definitely recommend it! Let's just hope that the author keeps this high release rate and quality :)

This is a great story and is a solid 5/5 till now for me .....also this is my first time writing a serious review that goes to show how much I like  this book.....I have tried to break down and review the story elements by myself and here I go—
1)Plot—>Firstly the plot is well thought out and well paced and it is also mostly realistic.The author has tried his best for accommodating the sci-fi aspects of the story which is believable (if you want to believe cuz that is as far as it goes in fictions).
2)Characters—>The characters are mostly likeable and there is heavy character development that is necessary and believable because the genre is ‘apocalypse’.Most people change when their survival is threatened but it cannot be abrupt and has to have a trigger and a period of change, this is something that the author has shown.Not all characters are supposed to be black and white and they have to be dynamic and changing which happens in this story and this is a plus for me.
3) System——>Finally the major tag that is very popular and common nowadays,’system’ is done right here .It does not spoon feed neither is it very vague,also people dont awaken skills out of thin air (at least it hasn’t happened yet).

All I have are praises for the book and small things in some chapter that I feel can be improved or I don’t understand are mostly in the comments so I think this book is only going to get better..

It is an amazing book from where I am at Chapter 32, but I will guarantee you that this book will take thousands of chapters to finish unless author picks up the pace. It is a good book but for how I can see it develop is not for me when it is taking a long time to progress.

Firstly I have to mention that this is a great novel with an intresting concept. The mc is not cliche and has a real personality and furthermore he is not flawless.
He is an introvert but in reality he wants to socialise with others.

_Writing Quality_
The writing quality is pretty good and there are very few mistakes (I am not an englsih native speaker so you probably will find more than I though).

_Stability of Updating_
The author posts a day, but sometimes he misses a day but makes up for it in the later days.

_Story Developpment_
It has to be said that this is a slow story but as soon as he
~Spoiler~
enters the new world the progress is normal.
It is clear that the author has an idea for the plot and the story follows a clear "path"

_Character Design_
The characters are all interesting and have their own flaws.
Even though you can guess the personality of a character, there are some plot twists which seem understandebal but unexpected.
~Spoiler~
Additionally you can see how the MC fights his asocial personality and socalises more and more

-World Backround_
The world has a clear structure and there is nothing that happens, that seems totally random. The wolrd is furthermore intresting and you want to know more abou it.

All in all it is a fun read and you should give it a try.
[At this point the story reached 73 chapters so far and things can change and this review would be inaccurate]

I have to remind you that this is my first review so please do not blame me to much if you dont like it
