I'll not drop it, but start accumulating free chapters.
I really don't like this premium system and LOHP is not the only novel I read, so I cannot afford it anyway. I could create an account for each novel to exploit this damned system, but I'm too lazy. I'll instead pick up another novel, just like I did when RTW became premium.

I immediately read the comments of the latest chapters and I think there are still many who don't know how premium novels work. They are all cheering for more releases coming 😂

    Oxy What the heck is wrong with you. He said he dislikes this premium system and that's not just his opinion, but shared by alot of informed readers here... Yes the TLs also have to earn something, but this premium system isn't really worth my money imho

      Yakumo How much more attractive do you want it to get? This is already way cheaper than the current patreon system. In fact, some translators are complaining that they are not earning as much on the premium system right now because of the cheaper per chapter price!

          II will look for a site to read for free or ask for one at NU fóruns. LOHP is the 1st novel that I read here on QI that got shited by premium.

          Oxy shut you mouth, damed animal. There are dozens of sites that translate for free with fan support by patreon. This fortune that Qidian will charge for you to read is unjustifiable.

              Oxy i heard that it's not cheaper per chapter price but the translators are bound to a contract that they are to sell their translation to qi and it is not up to them to set the price. Btw, they had to put down their patreon links too for the premium system, so, it's pretty harsh on them too.

                  Cytric Unjustified? There are no fundamental difference between premium and patreon. The only difference is that premium is pay per chapter, is cheaper, and you can see how many chapters premium is ahead from free readers.

                      Oxy Nope, once the premium chapter start they have to shutdown their patreon as you can see Immortal Mortal patreon already got shutdown.

                        Seems like I gotta drop this one. Not worth the SS for this one, RTW premium is worth the SS, but this? nope.

                        Oxy In fact, some translators are complaining that they are not earning as much on the premium system right now

                        If it's true, then technically it's qidian's fault that make the translator earning go down. The one who forces the contract is not the reader, it's QI. The one who forces to bring all the novel to single platform are they, it's business, they knew the risk they are taking, and they still got other plan just in case. How the market respond is up to the reader.

                          Oxy What a loud of bullshit.
                          With patreon translators receive the money directly. With premium the money goes first to Qidian, and Qidian will decide what they will give to the translators.
                          With patreon I can read 1 ~ 2 chapters peer days, with premium I can read one chapter per week.

                          About premium being cheap, did you at least do the math? Or do you shit gold?
