My Thoughts on Nightmare’s Call
"Nightmare's Call" is quite the ride, a web novel that pulls you in with its intriguing premise but might leave you a bit dizzy by the end. With a blend of action, fantasy, and even a touch of sci-fi, it aims for a broad appeal. After diving into the available chapters, here's my take.
First Impressions
Initially, I was hooked. The idea of a protagonist gaining power through nightmares, the "Dark Souls" vibe some readers mentioned, definitely piqued my interest. The early chapters promised a blend of horror and rational decision-making, similar to novels like "My House of Horrors," which set a high bar. But as I progressed, I found myself questioning whether the story could maintain that initial spark.
What Works Well
The author excels at world-building, crafting dark and violent settings that stand out from typical xuanhuan fare. The concept of the nightmare realms is genuinely fascinating, and the acquisition of skills from defeated foes in these dreams is a compelling mechanic. Some appreciate the MC's ruthless nature and clear goals, drawing comparisons to protagonists from "Way of the Devil" and "Warlock of the Magus World." The early arcs, particularly, were well-received for their engaging premise. The subordinates are also generally viewed as well-written and their interactions with the MC are a highlight.
Areas of Concern
However, the story's execution seems to be divisive. A recurring criticism is the MC's character development, with some feeling he devolves into an inconsistent and even unlikeable figure. Others argue that his lack of empathy and descent into a "psychopathic" state detracts from the overall narrative. The plot can feel disjointed at times, with forgotten plot points and a shift in focus away from the core nightmare premise. Additionally, the translation quality has been flagged as inconsistent, with errors and inconsistencies detracting from the reading experience.

Final Verdict
"Nightmare's Call" is a flawed but potentially entertaining web novel. While the initial premise and world-building are strong, inconsistencies in character development, plot execution, and translation quality hold it back. If you enjoy dark fantasy with a ruthless protagonist and are willing to overlook some of the story's shortcomings, it might be worth a try. Otherwise, proceed with caution. It's a solid 3/5 for me.
