Citadel for All: The Only Unit Angel at the Start of the Game

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Billions of humans have descended on the Boundless Continent to become the Lord of the Citadel and participate in a fair and equitable race for supremacy.

At the beginning of the landing, each Citadel Lord would randomly receive an Initial Barrack.

The first thing to do was to recruit soldiers, plunder resources, build a dynasty and compete for supremacy over all races!

Lin Yi was surprised to find out.

The one he received at random was the unique Military Barrack – the [Angel Reincarnation Pool]!

Angels could be bred!

“Haha, mine is an Advanced Troop Type building that can summon Forest Elves!”

“Mine is a Top Tier Troop Building, capable of summoning Dark Dragons with ultimate potential to reach the Holy Rank!!!”

“I can summon Golden Behemoths ……”

Looking at these self-bragging messages, Lin Yi couldn’t help but fall into contemplation.

His angels, holy beings, unique soldiers!

The weakest of the twin-winged Angel, in its full form, was also of demigod level.

The most powerful of all, the eighteen-winged Archangel, was even a terrifying existence of the Lord God level!

As soon as the Angel Legion comes out, who can compete with them?

Believe in the Lord, and you shall have eternal life!

Ok, So I was browsing and hilariously found a literal carbon copy of this series before I started reading either of them. They are both terrible even as wish fullfillment fantasies so comparing them side by side is their only real worth, here a small excerpt each

Citadel for All: The Only Unit Angel at the Start of the Game;
Chapter 36: Advanced architectural drawings – Sacred Temple!

"The amount of divine power the God of Faith possessed naturally increased!
As the Lord of Angels, Lin Yi was the most suitable person... more>> to become a Deity.
After all, Angels were high-ranked creatures.
Furthermore, they were loyal and fervent believers.
Lin Yi could gather more power of belief from the angels.
He could become the Deity of the Endless Continent in the future."

Era of Castles: Starting with 99 Dragon Eggs; Ch 31
Chapter 31: Advanced Building Blueprint -- Holy Dragon Palace!

"The god of belief naturally had more divine power!
As the lord of the dragon's faith, Mike was the most suitable to become a god through faith.
After all, the dragon was a high-level creature.
They were loyal and fanatical in their faith.
He could collect more power of faith from dragons.
It was not impossible to become the supreme god of the Otherworld Continent through the faith of these dragons in the future." <<less

Reading this novel is an exercise in patience. It is repetitive, the main character is one dimensional, and the "world chat" interactions serve no real purpose than to show-off how everyone in the whole world respects and fears the MC (OH... and to increase the word count and make it "feel" like you had read a chapter).

After a hundred chapters, the novel advanced seven days. MC's soldiers are way too overpowered to even matter, and there is no tension at all.

So, as I usually do, here come the good, the... more>> bad and the ugly:

The good

  • The novel's premise was interesting.
The bad

  • The premise is thrown away right at the start, when the MC is the only one who gets a divine being as soldier type. From then on, it is smooth sailing for his world conquest.
The ugly

  • Everything else...
  • Underage girl becomes MC's underling? Check;
  • "Player's Female Goddess" becomes interested in MC? Check;
  • Other players envious of MC, but praise him anyway? Check;
  • Battles have no tension? Check;
  • Plot develops at a snail's pace? Check, check and check.
I'm not fond of spoilers, but this title's potential readers deserve a warning. So, I'll summarize the first 100 chapters:

Spoiler
  • Humans are brought to a fantasy world to battle for supremacy in a game-like way;
  • Every player is given a random type of creature to command, from useless slimes to the supreme creatures like dragons;
  • MC gets the only divine creature: angels;
  • Players are warned that in seven days the beginner's protection will end and a beast tide will happen;
  • MC develops his castle and summons more and more of his overpowered minions;
  • Nightly raids by monsters kills other players, but poses no threat to MC;
  • Seven days passes and MC's angels kill more monsters than any other force in the world. Chockers.
  • MC chooses a prize for being the first placed in the monster tide.

Well, the game "balance" is complete shit.

The protagonist is whiney, complaining about his sole ally being lucky when he's the single luckiest person in the billion or so participating in this.

There's no goal other than "survive", but he knew since day 1 he'd have no problem with that, so it really just looks like he's a NEET doing nothing but playing a single mobile game all day while chatting about it and feeling good about doing well because he was lucky to draw the best gacha character on day 1.

There... more>> are aspects that had potential: interaction with the locals, the potential for weak but cheap teams to work well, the potential for a difference between game and reality (including using the terrain to make traps and such, or training units to use military strategies), even the interaction between the protagonist and his angel subordinates could have been expanded upon. The author just kind of saw those potentials and went "What if I almost did any of that, but then faked out the readers and gave the protagonist anything he needed to make it easy for him?" <<less

The novel has potential but the MC just feels like a robot. Just assume he behaves like a person who is playing a rts games based on prompt given by tutorial, you will generally skip all the cut scenes and just follow the game.

MC feels extremely passive and makes no sense why is he the MC. The scary part is he always seems like a potential villain. Some examples are he just doesn’t care about his followers and his followers are hypnotised at birth to follow him.

Overall if you like... more>> the concept of kingdom building it suits to read but note that it will not be engaging novel. <<less

I read the raws.

Pretty much MC is OP type of novel. Honestly, it's a good reading. The MC is forced to be/or needs to be the "Almighty Lord" to the angels and other races that follow him. He also gets way too many opportunities to get stronger despite the game being designated to be "mostly fair", but overall the novel is good.

an interessting novel but not perfect

althought the game balance is not fair and the MC is arrogant it is no wonder who would not be

if you have the most powerfull race as starting mob

also it is quite sad that the translation group is splitting one chapter into many chapters like one into 3-5 chapters and not even marking it as part 1 2 3

Honestly, I really like stories like this and I love the idea of the guy basically being a god before he actually becomes one. But to be completely honest I'm not a fan of how spoiled the MC is, he complains about his ally getting all this stuff when she basically gives the majority of it to him and complains about there not being rewards for doing this or that when the endgame reward is literally god tier. He should just be happy the system was giving him pats on... more>> the head and gave him rewards for events

I don't know why people are complaining about game balance, it seems fairly balanced to me blueprints seem rather rare and the other competitors seem to get cucked regularly. He doesn't seem to get blueprints often purely due to his luck and unit, I imagine it probably has something to do with his ally's unit is why she gets blueprints regularly. His Unit is literally Angels one of if not the strongest unit in the game, of course the blueprints for them are going to be difficult to get and frankly he would've done just fine without them too. In My opinion The only thing that's 'unbalanced' is his angels themselves which he basically had a 1/10, 000, 000, 000 chance of getting. In any other match, he would've probably of have gotten cucked a long time ago. I think they should've gone the 99 Dragon Eggs route with his acquisition of Angels though then that would probably fix the balancing issue slightly. And it would give his summoned named angels a bit more uniqueness aside from their 'mutations'. <<less

This is one of those brain-turn-off-ey wish fulfillment novels that you need to shut down your brain's higher functions to enjoy, with a s*upidly overpowered protagonist that is "so much stronger and cooler than everyone else, and everyone likes him except for bad people who he beats up and he doesn't have any friends because he's too cool for friends not because he's an antisocial prick, but everyone still wants to be his friend anyway because he's just too cool and strong."

The premise seems to be that the entire population... more>> of earth was suddenly transported to another world for some as-of-yet unexplained reason, to each serve as "castle lords" whose job it is to raise an army, conquer the native forces and their rival castle lords and eventually ascend to godhood. Uh-huh. There are a few problems with the basic premise here such as, "wow, this world must be s*upidly huge to be able to give an entire castle to each of earth's several billion population with at least several kilometers of land separating each castle, not to mention taking into account the countless native intelligent races that each have their own villages, towns, cities, and such" or, "What's the cutoff age for this alternate world godhood program? The youngest character we've been introduced to so far is literally a 13yo child, that's already pretty damn young for someone tossed into an actual death game by themselves. Is that the lower limit, or does it go all the way down to newborn babies? If we do have baby army commanders, what would that look like? If not, what happened to the kids left on earth? Won't someone think of the children!?"

Also, the MC is a douche. You can have an as*hole protagonist and still have a good novel, but his douchebaggery is presented as the "right" thing to do and I'm less down with that. Examples of the protag's douchedom include, but are not limited to:

  • doubling the price of the food that he sells in the early game because other people have no choice but to buy it to avoid starvation
  • flat-out refusing to even interact with anyone that doesn't bring him benefits
  • after refusing to divulge the race of his soldiers to the global community, getting pissed and holding a grudge against a random guy that attacked one of his soldiers thinking it was a random wild mob, even though they didn't manage to deal any damage to MC's troop, to the point that as soon as the global Noob Invincibility expired, he went out of his way to go find and mu*der this dude who was a totally non-threatening weakling, ignoring this dude's pleas to let him surrender.
Also also, it seems that anyone on the Eternal Comtinent can cultivate to immortality, and the gods once abandoned the people of this world, forcing them to face a strong interdimensional enemy on their own, making the local races all hate gods and religion, and determined to attain strength on their own. So when MC's angel troops swoop in telling everyone that MC is God and if they worship him they can attain immortality, the locals are understandably none too thrilled. So what does our MC do? He has his goons slaughter anyone with a high enough cultivation base to resist his angel's brainwashing magic, and then his angel casts f*cking BRAINWASHING MAGIC on the weaklings to force them to worship him as a god... Hans... are we the baddies? <<less

The premise is unique, at least for me.

Humans arrives in another world to 'compete' and ascend godhood.

The MC is op from the start getting the Angel troops template.

Harem

Spoiler

The angel Harem is shit.

Because they are MC's troops, it feels like they are 'hypnotized' from the start and just waiting for the MC to pick them up.

No romantic development or whatsoever.

I did not rate this because this series makes it clear from the very start what kind of series it is... and I can respect that. There is absolutely an audience for pure self-insert wish fulfillment type novels, and I think the writing itself is fine (for that genre, which I'm not fond of).

Edit: Except for the line in the summary going "fair and equitable race for supremacy". It's fair only in that that MC believes anyone could have lucked out with the angel faction at start. Whoever gets that... more>> is clearly the designated victor.

The initial arc has a moment where all the other players are scrambling like their lives depend on it (because it does) while the MC is relaxing at his castle trying to figure out how to relieve his BOREDOM. Honestly, the novel does a fine job of setting the reader's expectations (unending effortless triumph) and then meeting those expectations. The MC doesn't have to lead his angels - just tell them to go forth and kill/conquer/etc and they make it happen. Upkeep? His faction doesn't have it. Loyalty? His faction 100% loyal forever. Gear? They have magic and can also summon weapons. This pattern continues - the perils of leadership are for *other* players, not the MC! The MC is the #1 castle lord in the first arc (effortlessly), and that's clearly never going to change. The rest of the setting is the underdog, and it is surely doomed. The reviewer that noted the MC feels like he's playing a mobile game is quite apt - that's basically the amount of effort the MC is putting into this.

I'm only following this series because the setting is quite interesting, and there can be some fun gleaned by imagining what the story would be like if it focused on literally any other player than the MC. I have long since started skipping/skimming any section focusing on the Angel faction - a brief look now and then confirms that, yep, it's still just describing how the MC is effortlessly coming out on top and how any new difficulties are auto-resolved by his extreme OP-ness.

Spoiler

The Angel of Love resolving the possible issue of the MC not concerning himself with long-term alliance planning (via what's basically mass [and surely irreversible] brainwashing of the native races) is really something I should have seen coming. Of course he's going to effortlessly be the best at recruiting natives.

[collapse]

I mostly wanted to see how the beast tide mechanics worked / how the players with lower-tier units fared, tbh, so I'll likely be shifting to a more periodic check-in to see if the author's come up with any other interesting game mechanics. Those mechanics, of course, will either help the MC, be neutral to the MC, or be challenges to *other* players but not the angels. <<less
