Yes, thank you, my thoughts exactly. Also, the worldbuilding was severely lacking
Truly, every time they entered a dungeon, I would always physically prepare myself for absolute peak, but it was always really disappointing. They didn't explore different powers, levels, and the sort properly, I thought it was like that to give way for the romance but given the romance was also so underdeveloped, I truly dont understand. It was just amateurish, but I guess it would be "soo good" for people who are either not familiar with the trope or just dont read a lot of very fleshed out romance books.
Yeah as I was reading it I thought "Wow they are just getting right into this romance and skipping so many steps, someone's impatient". The romance stands on as shaky of a ground as the whole world it happens in lol
The reason the romance didn't work for me is because it had absolutely no progression up until MCs suicide attempt.
Every time seme started having an ounce of character development, he instantly backpedaled again. He showed zero signs of falling for MC throughout the entire story.
He only caught feelings in the very last five minutes, I can totally see the novel doing a way better job at showing the reader the seme falling for MC, but the manhwa did such a bad job there imo, and it kinda ruined the whole story for me because I couldn't take their romance seriously at all
And other aspects of the story haven't really been explored enough to distract you from the lack of romantic development, either
It was OK, but the ending really was what made me go "well that was underwhelming" in the end
As someone who has read quite a few of these "superpower, dungeon, tower" type manhwas, this was severely underwhelming and kinda boring. The couple also does nothing for me, the mc feels so one-dimensional and doesn't have any personality except being scared, or blushing with his mouth open. They clearly tried to make the ml like sociopathic or whatever but I was just cringing the entire time. I finally dragged myself to finish it after the 4th time of coming back, cause people recommended it. Well. At least I've gotten it out of the way
