Another author I supported on Patreon. I like the series a lot, mostly due to the main protagonist and the friendship in it. One thing I enjoyed from the very beginning was how the class he got was so cool and strong when used with creativity :)
Well said! Another thing I enjoyed about Ruwen's progress is how his powers seemed to grow in a "logical" way with the way the themes were handled :)@@FantasyInk
@@FantasyInk Gladly :) One I saw mentioned in another comment section is the series The perfect Run. The main reason to read it is the MC, who reminds me of Nick's (Super Powereds) and Jason's (HWFWM) irreverence. It is a world with super powers and the MC has a time related skill. He seems wacky and silly, maybe a little bit like a Nolan Joker, crazy but with planning. However, where it wins over some other character archetype of this nature is the reason for his insanity because the series really looks into the way certain super powers actually would work and what they mean for a human being. Overall a funny series with surprising depth. 1 or 2 other recommendations will follow ^^
@@FantasyInk Talking about time powers... I am reading the new fourth book of Reborn: Apocalypse. I used to think of it as a time travel story, although it fits into regression fantasy, which I didn't know back then. It is not written as tightly as some other books you have done videos about, but it is enyoable and does the whole regression type well. The MC is not overpowered but does very well due to his knowledge. Many things get improved compared to the first time line thanks to that knowledge, but the story works well with two aspects: Things he learned about initially, which were actually different (background motivations of other people for actions, reasons for events in the other time line), can mean he actually acts "incorrectly" so to speak and the fact he changes things has repercussions to the way things progress, which sometimes invalidates his knowledge of what's to come. If you don't know this one you might wanna read the blurb and some reviews to figure out whether it is something for you, though! It is not as clear cut a recommendation as The perfect Run for example.
@@FantasyInk Last one for right now. By the way, if you like recommendations outside of litRPG or GameLit, let me know of course, I would be happy to share more. The Divine Dungeon series is pretty fascinating. I have learned not to trust Krout, the author blindly, since he, quite honestly, wrote some rather awful books by now. And even this series has a little slump in the middle. But the concept, great beginning and good end to the series still makes me recommend it. As with most of my recommendations, concept and characters are two of my main points. This series is a dungeon core story, the first I have ever read, but I still think it might be the best I have read despite diving into the subgenre later on. The way the MC thinks is so pleasantly non-human and how it handles the fact that the MC needs human beings to die in order to grow is done so well, the reader is rooting for the character that usually (outside the genre) is the villain. Well written story, even if you might have all enjoyment you need with the first two or three books too, to be honest. Still, finishing the series is still a time spent well in my eyes.
Can't get enough of this series
It is getting better and better as the MC gets more OP. Looking forward to how it is gnna wrap up!

Which is why Ruin's intelligence is his highest base stat! He needs to be creative. he is given the tools, but not the blueprints!
