The Fourth Calamity: You Say Humanity Is Weak in the Interstellar Age?

I've read quite a few male-oriented novels, and to be honest, most of them are really hard for a female reader to finish. This novel is a breath of fresh air in the male-oriented genre. Whether it's the plot, the characters, or even the word choice, it's all remarkably clean. There are no close-ups of female body parts, no suggestive language, and no lewd plot twists. It's a pleasant read, and the author's writing is smooth, making the story unfold like a scroll painting. It's very enjoyable to read, and I want more! Please update more, author!

So far, everything seems good, and it's a rare find. It's a fourth-generation space-themed disaster novel; most are post-apocalyptic or low-tech worlds. This one is truly exceptional. I hope you continue writing.

You can clearly feel that the author's writing skills are slowly improving. The writing and plot were a bit weak in the early stages, and I originally wanted to give it four stars. But as I read on, the author's writing got better and better. The pacing is not slow but it is not mindless fun either. It is very exciting. The player's actions are also very funny and humorous. As a female reader, I found it very enjoyable to read. Unlike some low-quality wish-fulfillment novels that disrespect women and make vulgar, suggestive jokes about female characters, this author's female characters, such as the strategic and visionary Jiang Xue'er and the cold and powerful Xingchen, are not the stereotypical beautiful but brainless type. The characters are much more realistic than those in low-quality novels where powerful female characters must be in love with the male lead, or else they are either weak, evil, stupid, or dead.

So far, this is the only interstellar novel that Tomato has found that suits his taste. The supporting characters are very interesting and there's a lot of fun. The protagonist's character is a bit underdeveloped. There aren't too many mindless face-slapping moments, and many people complain about the protagonist's plot. Author, keep it up! Maintain this style, and please follow, support, and send gifts!

The plot and character design are both good; it's enjoyable. However, there's too much profanity. I prefer listening to audiobooks, and the constant swearing makes it unpleasant to watch. There are also many offensive lines, and the female characters' attitudes towards these lines... If it could be reduced, I would give it 5 stars. I saw in the reviews that many of the readers, who identified themselves as female, thought it was good... I don't really understand how you guys managed to watch it despite all the profanity and some of the nonsensical plot points (for example, it felt worse after Alice appeared, many people's comments were disturbing, and the actress who plays a strong, independent woman in real life had a baffling attitude towards inappropriate jokes in the game). Everything else was fine, the plot was good.

This novel, "The Fourth Calamity," is the first one I liked after "The Only Spark." I've now found two game novels I like. Keep it up! I'll give you a reward when I have some money! 😳

It's really good so far. No need to overthink it. The plot is also good. I hope the author continues to write well, avoids plot holes, doesn't introduce romantic pairings, doesn't have inconsistent power levels, and doesn't suddenly make the plot go awry. It's not easy to find a good book!

This is incredibly good!!! I've read it for over 300 hours, and it's the first novel I've ever paid for—you can't imagine how valuable that is. First of all, the protagonist is very strong; he's not the kind of pathetic, weak-willed character who just grows through brute force. The male lead is incredibly handsome and has a system, but the system works because the male lead is strong enough to be believable. My obsession with strong characters in novels was truly satisfied! Secondly, as a novel about the fourth natural disaster, the players have a high degree of autonomy. They don't just rely on the tasks given by the male lead to complete them. Many of the players are intelligent! They have their own logic and ways of thinking; they're not just mindless tools. It's incredibly entertaining because many of the choices I made were things I never even considered, haha, it's really funny. For example, when encountering a powerful enemy, the protagonist asks the commander among the players, "What do you think I should do?"—"I suggest you surrender."

It's really good; I think it's comparable to the legendary game "The Mechanic." It's basically high-energy from beginning to end, non-stop action. From the initial tree-chopping to the goblins (who are more like the dwarves I remember), it jumps straight into interstellar warfare without any unnecessary dragging. It's not really a war, more like a faction war. It's very well-written. Actually, considering the player base, it would be great to include some arena-like elements like in "The Mechanic," player leagues, and fun daily activities like opening loot boxes. As someone who enjoys fun, seeing the background story the author wrote, I'd really love to see a three-way battle like Zerg vs. All races vs. Terran! 😏

This is a really good novel. I'm especially looking forward to the appearance of the human race later on; will there be a major plot twist? I usually can't keep reading these kinds of novels after thirty or forty chapters. To be fair, the premise of this novel is quite novel. I'm really looking forward to the appearance of the human race later on.
