The title is skill maker so logically he should abuse his powers and so he did when the skill was D rank and when the ability ranked up he doesn't any more. Like wtf if he actually ran some experiments and understood just a bit of the mechanism of his powers he wouldn't have to join a guild he could solo high tier dungeons by himself.

Not a bad story.

It is frustrating at times, and there is far too much inner monologue that just repeats lines over and over (in the same monologue; it is like a 5-year old telling a story), but overall it is a light and enjoyable read so far.

As of chapter 109, 3/5 rating for me - ok, not bad and not 'good'.

I like the story, tho it's still kind of a 'so-so' story. I like how the story start and goes but the one thing that kinda irks me is the mc's slow realization of his skill despite of many events that happened to him. There's also some situation wherein it becomes repetitive with just a little bit of difference from other events that cause to look like a filler for the story. Despite that it's still a good story.

The idea of it all was good... That's it. That's the only good point.

I find the MC extremely lacking intellect-wise; to the point that I'd get frustraded while reading.

It also doesn't help how the translator handled it like some type of side job that they just wanted to get over and done with.

All in all, it was a very frustrating read.

  1. He has an incredible ability which would grant him almost unlimited power if he figures it out which he doesn't. mind-numbingly painful he doesn't abuse his ability when he needs to.
  2. He doesn't understand something he should know. The main issue character has at the beginning is caused by him butting in, when given how he did training to be a hunter he should already know the issues and subtext rules underlying whats happening.
  3. He gets stronger too fast and has unbelievable plot-power,
    Spoiler

    the premise is there are many different ranks of a hunter, by hunting they gain xp and move up a rank increasing the strength of their special abilities and also improving the power of their body. To move from f to e rank is easy however to move from c rank to b rank is significantly harder and so on, he a c rank can somewhat hold his ground against an a rank who isn't using abilities...... bare in mind this c rank has only been awakened (e rank to c rank) for a few months while the a rank is part of a group of the best a ranks in the world who are really powerful and most likely been a ranks for years, the elite of the elite.

Good to idle away some time but definetly not a gem in my bookshelf. Very basic storyline, with some slowass protagonist that gets op powers through sheer luck and is too dumb to use the full potential, but considers himself the most clever person, while laughing about 'petty people that have too big an ego'

Thing I disliked the most: this portal-apocalypse never been properly explained and how portals work; the MC decides 100 times to create some skill and ends up having other things to do or its... more>> results being omitted and never was spoken about again; when one thing just been the most important to the MC its just being dropped some time later <<less

It's called The Skill Maker, but the MC only creates skills at the beginning. He didn't make anything new for about 50-60 chapters so far.

For now the plot is moving along and it doesn't feel like reading a filler, which saves it from a lower rating.

Translation is mostly fine with occasional minor issues, for example "Strengthen Visibility" sounds like something that makes you easier to be noticed, as opposed to something that improves your vision (Strengthen Vision or Improve Sight would in my opinion be a better translation in this... more>> example). <<less

I think this novel has an interesting concept (Creating skills and etc). Saddly it was extremely baddly written so If you want to read it I recommend reading until chapter 28 or 30 and then skipping to chapter 72. I'll tell you why in the spoiler below.

For some reason the author decided to write 40 chapters that won't add anything to the history. He barely used his SS rank skill and he didn't use Skill maker not even once!. I got depply frustated reading those chapters and I bet it'll be the same for the next readers because they sincerely suck.

Well the novel seems to be getting back on track now but I need to read a bit more to be able to tell for sure if this novel is worth reading or not. Despite the 40 filler chapters I for some reason really enjoyed the normal ones. <<less

I like this novel a lot. That probably has something to do with the slightly introverted MC coming into his stride and becoming OP. It seems to be a feature in a lot of novels I read. The Koreans in general, do that well, balanced between the megalomaniac Chinese and the loosey-goosey Japanese types in novels. But often, Korean MCs turn into these paranoid dark loners with few actual connections and too many secrets. It's depressing.

So, obviously, this novel is not like those. It's about a guy who awakens his... more>> hidden talents, finds people he can trust, endures hardships, works hard and isn't a complete dick. <<less

Great Story. Likable Characters for the most part. Interesting ability that seems and is OP but has enough of a learning curve that it doesn't ruin the power balance. MC feels and reacts like a normal person.
