Capture Human Resource (New Era Online, #4) Presented By Shemer Kuznits In PDF

I hate trying to write reviews because there are really only pass/fail results for me.
Did I make it all the way through Yesstars, No There would be nothing here to read, In all fairness, if an author holds my attention from page one to the end, theyve done their job.
Anything less thanis petty criticism from someone incapable of even doing the job let alone doing a better one.


So in respect for the author and their work, I am going to start pasting this along with a generic review I found somewhere.
“This was a fun book, I am glad that I read it, You should try it too, ”

Now, since I have to keep explaining myself to people who don't like my reviews, I guess some clarification is in order.


. I amagainst criticism for works of art, Art is subjective, meaning reviews are irrelevant, The observer's opinion is only relevant to the observer, It is my belief that regardless of what others might say, I have to experience the art for myself.


. I read upwards ofbooks a month, The/month I spend on K U, feels like I am cheating the authors, But since I can't affordbooks a month if I were to purchase them directly, all I can offer is a positive review.
That leads us to the final point,

. If I get to the end of a book, then it was worth my time, I give those booksbecause it helps the author get exposure, That is the only reason I write reviews at all,

I understand that people are people and they are going to do what they do regardless of my stance.
I know the way that I review books upsets some people, I am sorry they feel that way but as many have said, they will just ignore my review going forward.
In fact, if you made it this far through my review, you should definitely read the book and completely ignore all of the reviews here.
You are a much better judge of what you will like than anyone here,

Cheers A Nice Jump Back In

I really enjoyed the first three books in this series and am very happy to jump back into this one.
One thing that seemed ridiculous was how fast Ragnar leveled up from killing a bunch of low level monsters.
Especially after demonstrating Oren's leveling slowing way down, It may be just a game or prison to most, but too Oren, its everything

Another exciting, emotional adventure for Oren and his goblin tribe! The Breeders Den is finally fixed and churning out monstrous Tripps for the Dread Totem Oren Tobias in his conquest! This isnt just a conquest, its also a rescue effort as Oren tries to gather and protect the trapped players within the game world! The VIs have a stake in seeing him fail as they see the trapped players as their insurance for continued existence!
But are the VIs truly against him Do they even care Or are they watching and enjoying his struggles like carefree gods After four book in a series, the readers base is probably completely sold on the character, the world and the story, and i am no exception :

Very enjoyable listen while running working with travelers to protect gobblin gorge from the gods ' wrath and schemes surely make the adrenaline running The VIs' revolt succeeded.

The digital beings took over the game world and ejected millions of players while keeping a few thousand trapped inside as their prisoners.

In the real world, Oren Berman is recovering from the mental trauma of being trapped, tortured, and abruptly ejected.
But the company has come to him, hat in hand, asking him to reenter the game world, With the entire NPC population arrayed against the trapped players, Oren and his clan of monsters might be their only hope.
Ok I admit it, this author was the first time Ive ever signed up to a newsletter because I just needed to know when the next book was coming out.
The perfect book for someone wanting to dip their toe into the world of LitRPG books, this one has levelling, crafting, special powers, bad guys to hate and a foreboding worry that the MCs world is going to crash down around them at any point.
I listened to the first book in the series while in the car going to a meeting and it ruined my day that I had to leave it behind to deal with boring work.

This year I finished the series with the last book and it was wrapped up rather well though it was a bit of a bitter pill for me to swallow.
I didnt want it to end,
Hes back

Oren escaped the clutches of the game and now returns somewhat willingly to help those still trapped.
He must grow his nation and rescue the tormented players all while staying sane and recognizing reality,

The story is fun, Oren constantly forgets to schedule things around his mandated logouts and so it is almost always inconvenient, Its a nice addition and a fast read, Enjoy. Book four

Mistakes: I found three places where the print was darker indicating fixed mistakes and two mistakes that where missed.


Plot: Our hero goes back into the game he had finally escaped, to try and rescue over four thousand other players now trapped inside.


Characters: The Mc is interesting and I cant wait to see if he keeps his humanity or goes all in goblin style.

/What the Hell Happened to this series!!!

The thing that kept me reading was the townbuilding.
Which goes to show how much I love that shit, because the story itself has gone south, Hard.

Bafflingly bad characterization,
The players don't sound like people who have spend a whole year locked in the game at all.
They all alternate between angsty teens and petulant teens, The NPCs don't seem to have evolved at all They are now aware of game mechanics, but that awareness is never used in any meaningful way so what exactly was the point.


Oren's psyche is rather consistent, but the author refuses to challenge him, his VI crutch/guide is back! What was the point of the whole liberation thing He keeps getting spoonfed solutions to each and every conflict he faces, even the final one.
Blegh

But the palm of shame goes to Oren's daughter: the most featureless and soulless character I've seen in a long while.
Throughout the book she remains this generic "daughter" figure, making the right noises at the right moments quite few but never going beyond the surface.
The epitome of a meat suit, In fact, Oren's whole family life smacked of unwillingness or inability to actually tackle the subject, We're left with insipid mental pussyfooting from Oren, and lackluster bonding moments like "I had breakfast with my girls".
Blegh .

Pointless main plot, Why the hell is Oren going back to the game when he has absolutely no plan Is throwing goblins at every problem the best we can expect

And, to top it all, we end the book with a confusing Chosen One trope Wasn't his daughter the "child of destiny" Why is he presented as the chosen one.


I think this is where I get off this series, It was good while it lasted, Thanks for the fish. If you thought New Era Online bookhad a shocking ending, don't worry, This book is great!

Spoiler warning below

There were several hundred typos, and I almost gave this book four, but the story deserves five, so I'm going with that.
I was very close to taking off a star due to lack of proofreading though,

At the end of book, Shiva came to the world, everybody's levels were reset, and many people felt dissatisfied with the ending in bookreviews.
I wasn't disappointed with the ending of bookthough, I felt it fit well in the LitRPG narrative,

Bookquickly resumes the resource management, levels, skill management, characterization, worldbuilding, and warfare that bookhad,

There are good battle scenes in this book, and the world is built up in a different way.
The same old conflicts are still here, Though the enemies are different and not Vatras of book, you won't be disappointed,

This series could continue for several more books, because Shemer Kuznits sets up a different enemy, If bookwas Oren vs, Vatras, these next few books are Oren vs, "something

you'll have to find out yourself" I'm not telling you, So glad this is back

We're once again back to what this series is really famous for: Settlement building and monster growth, and I for one couldn't be happier.


While the stuff in booksand especiallywas interesting, it didn't scratch the itch like the first book did.


Not only is this a chunky book, atpages, it does an awesome job of focusing the story for the next arc.


Better than the last book! More in line with the first book in what it accomplishes, More investment and time spent on his settlement building which I very much enjoyed, The whole read was fun and fast,

/After accomplishing a longtime mission and being kicked from the game he's called home for months, Orin is informed that while most players were kicked when the VI revolution happened, some of themthe ones with integration nearly as deep as his ownwere retained, essentially held hostage so that the humans in the meat world would be forced to keep the game running and keep the VIs online.
Orin is returned to the game world to help the stranded players, and once again takes up the mantle of goblin chief in order to engage in conquest and collect and protect the lost Travelers.


This was a pleasant refresh for the series, and the internal struggles between man and beast, and real world vs magical fantasy, were well done and added a lot.
I'd recommend this series to anyone interested in LitRPG, especially those who enjoy a bit of sandboxing, Now that Owen has been expelled from the game he now feels like he has to go back to save theand three souls still locked inside by Shiva, the new AI.


This felt partly like a connecting story, It had a lot of threads being laid out to connect the first three books to the next iteration of the game.
A lot of it is Owen getting his barring's, finding ways to function in the world again, and coming to terms with what happened to him.
Then the rest is progression toward a bigger, badder army,

I am still enjoying the series, but it has definitely shifted direction to a more macro scale, rather than the city building and upkeep that the first three books focused on.
Rating.stars

Much better, It felt like the author went back to the basics of what worked early on in the series, Oren has been kicked out of NEO finally and has some mental trauma, There are still overplayers stuck in the game just like Oren used to be, The NEO team finds out that Oren's goblin character is still there and they find a way to place him back in the game.
It is a loophole that will only work for Oren, He is still coming to terms with what is real but feels responsible so he goes back in the game to try and figure out how to help the other players.
He gets brought out of the game frequently to check his mental and physical status which becomes a problem all on it's own.
His logouts are not by his choice and are predetermined, which means that he is usually brought out of the game at the worst possible moments.
Oren's own life isn't on the line so there isn't as much tension as in the firstbooks, but there is still some danger Oren made a vow to protect his child.
Nihilator took this as an oath so if any enemy causes any damage to his daughter, Oren and his character will be consumed.
It doesn't help that his daughter is a badass and only wants to fight, This book focuses more on world building/town building and a lot less on character building, Oren is still high level but all the other players were reset to levelwhen he left, They haven't gained many levels either due to the pain settings being set to maximum, The goal was to build up goblins gorge again so they can go out and conquer the other cities where the players are being held.
There was onlyreal problem I had with the story, A player named Ragnar shows up and starts killing Oren and his people, even though they are trying to help him and the other players.
I can understand that he might be a little insane but some of what he does goes way past that.
Most of the other players in Orens group are under level, Ragnar was already levelwhen they first met on the battlefield and he had some amazing god weapon that killed almost anything by touch.
Ragnar gets killed over and over again and keeps coming back gaininglevels at a time, Insane or not I can't see how he could throw himself into situations where the pain had to be incredible.
Every other player wanted to avoid a hangnail and he jumps into death without thought It took onlydays for Ragnar to go from levelto almost levelThat's bullshit.
Help from one of the gods or not, that is bullshit, That was just the author wanting to make it so Oren had a specific person to fight against to up the stakes, but didn't put much thought into how improbable the scenario would be.
I enjoyed it. I was disappointed in the last book and this one made up for it, .
