Description
One day, a group of 300 people woke up in a completely unknown space and heard a mysterious voice saying, “Choose three Skill Seeds.” The time limit was 10 minutes, and it was a race to grab the seemingly cheat-like Skill Seeds of “Appraisal,” “Synthesis,” “Transmutation,” and “Healing.” Amidst the frenzy, Takumi couldn’t shake off his discomfort with the Skill Seeds, and at the last second, he chose a leftover one based on a certain idea. Afterwards, Takumi reincarnated into another world with the “leftover” Skill Seed, and he proceeded to change the laws of the world with his bold ideas. People were amazed at his audacious thinking, and he eventually altered the power balance between humans, elves, dwarves, and demons. What kind of Skill Seed did this man choose to use? The only thing for sure is that Takumi’s chosen Skill Seed had the power to change the world.

First Impressions
Okay, that title is definitely a mouthful! Diving into this novel, I was prepared for a fairly standard isekai experience, and in some ways, that's exactly what I got. The premise, involving a protagonist transported to another world with a unique skill system, isn't groundbreaking. However, there's something about the way the author approaches the familiar tropes that kept me reading.
What Works Well
The skill system itself is a definite highlight. The idea of combining "skill seeds" to create unique abilities, especially when coupled with the protagonist's choice of "Hacker" as a job, opens up some interesting possibilities. I appreciated that the author seems willing to experiment with the system rather than immediately making the MC overpowered. This focus on theory-crafting and skill experimentation is a welcome change of pace. The story is easy to read, even if the chapters are short, and it’s a good way to pass the time.
Areas of Concern
While the core concept is intriguing, the execution seems to be a bit uneven. The pacing can feel jarring at times, with plot points lacking sufficient build-up or closure. I also found the characters to be somewhat underdeveloped. The MC, in particular, comes across as bland and inconsistent, lacking a strong personality. The world-building, while functional, is pretty bare-bones, leaving many questions unanswered. The motivations and actions of certain races feel poorly explained, which detracts from the overall immersion.

Final Verdict
I Was Told To Choose 3 Ingredients for the Skill… is a flawed but ultimately enjoyable read. It’s not going to win any awards for originality or masterful storytelling, but it offers a fun, if somewhat generic, isekai experience with a unique skill system at its core. If you're looking for a light, easy read with some creative potential, this might be worth checking out. Just be prepared for some inconsistencies and underdeveloped characters along the way.
