Although it's similar to JJ's story where I rely on gacha pulls to create my character, the content is different. It's caught up; the content is great, and there aren't any major issues so far. The later parts got a bit padded; aside from other things, a single NPC who was just there to introduce the background took up almost two chapters.
Brief introduction to "Illusion: I Rely on Gacha Games to Create My Character": I watched it several times before but couldn't find anything similar, and here it is! 👀
It's great! I've read similar books before, and I searched for ages for a replacement, but now I finally have one! Please don't stop updating, author!!! It's so good! 💕💕💕
The theme is very novel and refreshing, especially the part where the mother fiercely protects her son and draws the system. Although it's a transmigration novel, I find the semi-coercive way of making the host do tasks and the cold, businesslike system quite annoying. Also, the races in that space seem so pitiful; they can't get out, and the protagonist can't draw them.
It's good, interesting, a satisfying read with beautiful visuals, and the protagonist is very powerful. I like it. It was great at the beginning, but it got terrible and ended badly around chapter 130.
This is the first time I've encountered this kind of genre. The author writes very well, with a slow and steady pace, and I was immediately captivated. It's just a bit short. I hope the author continues to update! 💕💕💕
It looks great. The theme is quite novel, and the romance is written quite well so far. It seems to be a 1v1 relationship, and it's quite sweet. The character development is decent, each with their own unique traits, and the writing is alright. I hope the author will update more often, and of course, take a good rest.
Author, keep it up! It's truly, truly, truly amazing! The imagination is so rich. I really hope you can reach the milestone of 3 million words. Wishing you lots of likes and praise. Please write more!
So beautiful! I love the white hair so much, it's just amazing! (♡´∀`♡) It's so cute! Boss, you update so frequently! Who knows how many chapters you can update in one day? You're such a workaholic! I love you to death! (≖‿≖)✧ Keep it up, I'll always support you, boss! (◍•ᴗ•◍)♡♬
The rating might be a bit low, but I really enjoyed this genre. The story is quite original, and the writing is excellent, especially the short stories which are particularly interesting! There might be a few duplicate gacha pulls (though I don't mind, I don't think it's a big deal). Kelly's tsundere personality really resonated with me, and the main character is well-developed.
