Another leaving reader due to paywall
People often forget to consider the fact you get 24-38 free spirit stones day, depending on your luck.
I'll start by saying that there is nothing PREMIUM about QI's premium: there are more mistakes in the so called premium chapters than in the previous regular ones.
When QI introduced PREMIUM it actually did me a favour. I have around 30 novels in the library and PREMIUM had me take a second look at them. Critically, this time. I concluded that only several of them (3-4) really deserve to be read. I can manage them with what Ss I had and with what I get every day.
The second favour is that I slowly but surely managed to distance myself from the genre. The genre is addictive but like most things that are addictive - it's very bad. Let's face it, most of these are TRASH when compared with proper books, fantasy or not. Maybe a lot of things are lost in translation but there is no comparison between them apart from the action. The constant action (almost every chapter) and upgrades keep you glued to your reading device and it's sometimes hard to return to a more slow and normal read. So, another thank you from me to QI and PREMIUM.
As for paying. I'm up for buying proper translated and edited good books. As they are right now and at the price they ask for it? The answer is ... LOL... NO WAY. The price vs. quality vs. what you get is just wrong. At several hundred bucks for an overly verbose 1000 to 2000 (or more) chapter story I expect an ebook version and a leather bound book version signed by the author, translator and the QI CEO :). And don't start with the: Yeah, but it's long, it's like 10-20 standard book, etc. Look, I pay for a single story, it's not my fault that the author couldn't finish his story in 100 or 200 chapters. I shouldn't be punished to pay for his fillers and stupid harem or supremacist fantasies.
There's also good in the genre. It made me discover a tiny bit of the fabulous Chinese history and civilization. Their heritage, their myths and beliefs are beyond interesting. The DAO, KARMA, reincarnation, all of these make you think and enrich your way of seeing and perceiving the world. Overall, I consider that I've won more than I've lost by reading these novels. So, not leaving but not paying either. Not with this system and not for this quality.
wanna leave just leave don't whine about it
at least premium helped me drop some shitty novels (immortal mortal)
Yeah before I read like 20 novels now I only read "Tales of herding gods".If ı wanted to read too much ı can go amazon why pay 150$-200$ for a shitty novel which full of fillers and translated with mtl.
I hope that the premium is based on watching ads and not paying ss .
REALITY:
SS

natto it is not charity if the premium are watching ads option instead of paying ss.
