After Being Reborn as a Villain, I Accidentally Stole the Hero's Girlfriend

There seem to be quite a few bugs... The author is still a newcomer and has a lot of room for improvement, so I'll just say keep it up! 1. The protagonist plays galgames (visual novels), and boys who play these games usually have harem aspirations to some extent. After seeing the protagonist's actions, I can only say he's a role model for us (single people). 2. Is the protagonist's view on money a bit problematic (regarding the cake)? 3. The affection level system is inexplicable. Saving someone only adds 10 points of affection? And then he's still indifferent? What's the point of adding 1 or 2 points casually? I don't understand. 4. Judging from the protagonist's actions, he's only 14 years old (the following opinions are based on this). He says he wants to do it himself...

The comment section is first and foremost a place for comments; everyone has the right to express their opinions, so don't act like a defensive person. Secondly, everyone has the right to express their views. Opinions are multifaceted and not something only you can think of. As for the issue of people starting to criticize the formulaic plots in pre-existing novels, it's not just here that people are expressing their opinions (other platforms are doing so too). I hope you'll pay attention. These formulas may not be common for some readers; they may be new to them and may grow to dislike them in the future, but not now. It's common to get so angry because a book you like gets a bad review; I don't know why you can't be more amicable... But if you're using this book for free, you can't give it a bad review? Fine, then...

First of all, I don't deny that this book is very good. But I really want to ask the author, did you seriously write the outline and design the characters? I initially thought the protagonist was an ambitious person who could change the plot, but aside from saving Hill, you only wanted to follow the original storyline? You even had to arrange for the original protagonist's harem to be formed? Then why did you write so many ambiguous relationships between the protagonist and other characters? NTR? (This should be a harem forum member's comment) Honestly, I don't know what the highlights of this protagonist are. He has cheat codes, he has slaves (wives), I can understand that you don't want to die, but what are you trying to do by being so cowardly? Pretend to be weak to deceive others? Forcibly giving the protagonist an NTR original...

Regarding these novels, I just want to say that you can read them if you like, and don't read them if you don't. Don't deliberately say things that will disgust others and affect their viewing experience. You can raise any questions, but please don't use offensive language.

Keep it up, author! Don't let the negative reviews affect you. Those readers who advocate for niche, high-brow literature aren't your target audience anyway. There are some people who like to find literary merit in commercial novels and entertainment in classics. Just ignore them. They're always shouting about high-brow literature, but they haven't actually read all 300 ancient poems. They act like they're so great by putting others down, but they probably struggle to write even an 800-word essay. Just write what you want. I'm a very simple person; if you make me happy, I'll give you monthly tickets and money.

The more I read, the more confused I became. The power levels were baffling, there were too many clichéd plot points, and why couldn't they just kill someone completely? There were too many bizarre magical buffs, and strangely, the villains didn't seem to need to pay a price for any of them. They could use scene-control magic at will. Did the author even plan out the power levels? The various factions were also confusing. Jia Er's side was clearly too strong; there was no possibility of balance on this continent. Strangely, the kingdom hadn't been destroyed. And some of the villains shouldn't be given a whitewash before they die; that's not touching, that's polluting…

Walk the protagonist's path, leaving the protagonist with nowhere to go.

Why is this novel less popular than 99% of other works?

There are many flaws, let's address them one by one! First, the number of magic potions used for each level up is different, right? Each time it increases, which means the magic value per level is different. But light and dark magic potions at levels 16 or 15 can be combined to reach level 25? Is the author's math flawed? Did he use his original 60% conversion rate? Later levels have significantly more magic, so how could they be combined? Second, at the beginning, simply changing into black clothes and finding a small alley is enough? That's too perfunctory! A level 15 nobody selling so much magic potion for gold coins...

Personally, I feel some character development has fallen apart. Firstly, there's Lance. The protagonist didn't do much at the beginning, and he even said he didn't want to be the head of the family. I can understand Lance not believing me. But then, he's shown kindness to the people at the old shop in the black market. I really don't understand this. He treats outsiders better than family, and then tries to kill the protagonist. He's your brother, after all. Even if he has a bad reputation, it should be directed at outsiders, and the protagonist is family too. I really don't understand. If he had this kind of personality, he wouldn't have thought of assassinating the protagonist. It's like a tree that starts out growing well, and then you bend it halfway through. Your character development is the same; you deliberately changed it halfway through...
