Tulis ulasanI rather enjoy this story. Its more of a slow burn in terms of pacing, which can understandably be a bit frustrating. I'm actually not a super big fan of the actiony bits where Ves gets personally involved, but I understand their importance within the context of the story. I started reading this story because I was looking for something a bit more relaxed compared to the normal fare that I read. The MC often has many conflicting goals so it often feels like he's dragging his feet a bit, but I don't necessarily think that's a bad thing. I don't believe its ever been stated that Ves is a super driven person, so bouts of procrastination aren't uncommon and serve to make him seem more realistic. I don't think said dragging of feet has ever been particularly egregious, but at the same time I binged 350+ of the chapters at once so my perspective may be a bit skewed as a result. Since I've caught up to the most recent chapters, the story's been updating at a pace of two per day, so I think the updating pace is pretty stable. I think the supporting cast is fine, but the story is definitely very focused on Ves himself. We know the names of other characters and a bit of their backstories/motivations, but we don't go super in depth about them. I would say this is an area that could be improved upon, but not something that really detracts from the overall quality of the story itself. As for the World Background, we've been given glimpses into the universe as a whole outside of the small bubble the story's been primarily focused on. As a result, we know there is a greater universe with other planets/characters/aliens out there waiting to be explored. From my recollection, I don't believe there's been too many lore dumps. As things become relevant, Ves (and we as readers) learn more about them, but never really to a truly overwhelming extent. All in all, I think this is a fun story that's trying to be a bit different from the normal fare on this site. From that context, I believe the story I've given is fair. There's room for improvement, but nothing that detracts significantly from its overall quality. I think if you enjoy Superstars of Tomorrow this will be something you might enjoy as well.
*I have read every single chapter up to 1736, skipping and skimming nothing* Slight inclusion of very mild spoilers that mean nothing out of context )) First, I have to say that the critics of the Vandal arc aren’t wrong. When I first read about the conscription, I assumed a time skip would be employed at some point. When they arrived at the Aeon corona system, I assumed time would be sped up on the planet rather than slowing down- this seemed like a great chance to accelerate the war ark. Nevertheless, the MC grew a lot during the arc. It is a bit of a stretch, but this is shaping up to be a 5000 chapter story at this rate. Dedicating 600+ chapters to preliminarily shape the MCs character from a timid indoctrinated weakling into a prototype of a business leader able to survive in a cutthroat world has at least some merit. Before you discount me completely- yes, I agree, there was some ‘false advertisement’. Being disconnected from the system for so long was counter to what most system novels do and many fellow readers will be justifiably annoyed at that. Me? I have no issue. Whilst I love your standard system trope chewing gum novels as much as the next guy sometimes, this isn’t that. In one of the recent chapters, the author described serving in the army as a means, not an end. That is the same thing I have to say for my perspective on his usage of the system. Whilst I cannot speak for the author, what I see from his work is an amalgamation. In mech touch speak, the design seed of the novel has taken fractured spiritual pieces from many different genres and used them to craft its own unique identity. Many people comment about the novel not conforming to expectations from various genres. Well... why should it? In webnovel speak, why continue to define a story by the same tags it started with if the story has come to a point where they are no longer the best choice? What if Ves loses the Metal Scroll for good? I’m sure the readers will riot(I’m sure the thought of introducing this plot element gives the author a headache for this reason) , but my point is that what if it makes the story better for it? Unlike so many people saying how the story has deteriorated, I have actually read the whole thing word for word. Whilst I agree that there were times where I was weary with parts of the story, I have never been disappointed. When ves returns from war, the Story picks up and becomes so much more phenomenal. The start of the new mech generation and his new mechs with their expanding repertoire of abilities are increasingly interesting to read about Tbh,I really tip my hat to the author. Perhaps the difference between phase tech mechs and mastercraft mechs are a subtle jibe at the non conformity of this story to cookie cutter ideologies. I’m sure any mildly intelligent person can think up 100 arguments against anything they wish. ‘Mech designers are unstable, hence justifying the MC making retarded decisions that help the plot’ I’ll take that excuse at face value. Why not? It makes for an interesting plot point. ‘the novel is so much about business but the business aspect isn’t realistic’ I’m entertained reading about it. I’m not a business magnate myself, nor do I expect the author to be too perfect? ‘What’s with cultivation? Why doesn’t it work like this or like that?’ Spirituality is obscure. Can the author make it more obvious? Does a massive pirate ship full of spirituality users not hammer home the point that only the strongest organisations really use it? Whilst Ves always calls it his unique advantage, there have been many hints in the story that he is well aware that he is not unique. He is aware that he is reinventing the wheel in some areas. He chooses not to think about that because it is not helpful to him. Many things are inherently open to debate. The author is building a universe. Where’s the fun if it’s perfect? I encourage fellow readers to read everything. This story is worth it. Enjoy!!
I don't like how the story was development ves mother is the very bad and god pilot is also not doing any good working ves has to do something to stop this madness or this story is going to in worst way.
I absolutely love this webnovel, though there are some glaring issues with it. Pacing is slower than a snail. Often the author repeats the same information multiple times and just slightly rewords it. This happens for the entirety of the 6500 chapters that are currently out. I find myself skimming through many parts as it is literally filler bs. I'm assuming this is done to pad out word count and stretch this novel for more than it already has been going on. It's great already, cut out the fluff. It's unnecessary and gives off the impression that the author thinks we have the memory of a goldfish.

dude, damn, 6000 episodes and you're still writing? considering you write an episode every day..... have you been writing for 6000 days?!!!!! how do you do that? what kind of imagination do you have?
this could have been such a great novel but author ruins it by stretching out events for hundreds of chapters for side quests that are easily forgotten and add nothing to the overall story. the direction of the story is also all over the place as he the author can't seem to follow through on an idea.
This novel is good. But I am not here for this novel today I am here to recommend you all a very interesting,funny and fulfilling novel with a toooooo OP MC. And that is 'You cannot afford to offend my woman'. I think it is very underrated cause many people don't know about this novel. So please go give it a try. I can guarantee you all that you will be very happy to read it.
An adictive story, I have enjoyed it, the authors tendency to repeat the design concept constantly does become tiresome, and it becomes quite expensive when you realise you have just spent some coins on a whole chapter of nonsense ramblings. But I have enjoyed it mostly, not sure I will read all of it as there is quite alot of it,and like I said it's quite expensive.
The beginning is good. But the writer kept dragging the plot for so long. I stopped reading because my cousin told me that the writer left and it was taken over by AI.
I dropped this novel around chapter 1900, right before chapter 2000. I could write a detailed review discussing the countless issues plaguing this novel, such as the abysmal pacing, poor character development, and chapters that feel disconnected and don’t help progress the story. Many reviews have already covered these points, though, so instead, I’m going to focus on the main reasons I stopped reading. First, I want to give credit to the author: the first couple of hundred chapters of this novel are truly great. They mix the unique idea of mech designing with the elusive “X-factor” extremely well. Watching Ves work through his issues by trial and error as he creates his own science to figure out the X-factor is highly enjoyable. The political intrigue and Ves's struggles to build his business while navigating the complexities of politics and improving his mechs are excellent. If the novel had ended there, I would gladly give it a 5-star rating and consider it one of my favorites. However, it doesn't, as the famous “War Arc” begins soon after those great chapters. I can narrow down my reasons for stopping reading to three main points: two minor reasons and one major reason. The first reason is that, as the story progressed, it shifted its focus from mechs to spirituality. This frustrated me, as the primary reason I was reading the novel was the mechs. Instead of Ves concentrating on designing new mechs and variants, he now spends his time contemplating how to better harness his spirituality. The second reason concerns Ves as a character. In my opinion, he serves as a masterclass in how not to write a character. In the early chapters, he was a young man with little knowledge of the mech business and no power or backing. However, by chapter 1900, he is no longer a nobody who has never made a mech; he has become a journeyman designer with a successful business. Yet, he still acts and thinks the same way. He continues to make extremely poor decisions that someone with his experience shouldn’t be making. My biggest issue with Ves is how the author has transformed him into a complete psychopath. In the early chapters, he had morals and ideas that made him interesting. However, by chapter 2000, Ves is, by all definitions, completely psychotic. From what I’ve heard from others who have read further, this doesn’t change. The third and most significant issue that led me to drop "The Mech Touch" revolves around two characters: Gloriana and Ves’s mom. They might just be the worst characters I’ve encountered across all types of entertainment. Even when I consider manga, movies, anime, books, novels, and games, I struggle to think of characters I despise more. I could write several paragraphs on how the author single-handedly ruined his novel by introducing them, but I can’t be bothered. This is the second review I’ve ever written, and I’m writing it because of how much I enjoyed this novel and how sad I am about its downfall. If you're thinking of reading this novel, I would recommend reading it at least until the war arc starts; from there, it’s up to you.
The characters are full and lively the storys good a little too dragged out great story I'm probably over $100 in tho so there's that never bought a books series for over $300

I have spent a lifetime reading and writing countless stoic management reports, design briefs, equipment analysis reviews, and business presentations. None of which I would ever describe as witty, insightful, or entertaining until I read by chance The Mech Touch by Exlor. His LMC company designs and builds machines of war from the ground up. This novel will leave your nerd senses tingling for more, and if you think flicking a wall switch to light up a room is magic you will find this book magical from chapter to chapter. Toss away your paperbacks, embrace technical devices and immerse yourself in 'The Age of Mechs'!
