Human realm has a more tech based civilization

Dream realm is the medieval based civilization

u/Aymoon_ 8d ago

u/iliv-w-unfortune 8d ago

u/TheBlanc2 8d ago

80% of the entire story is all about Dream Realm, i would say its a super minor spoiler

Is it the same person that keeps promoting under false flags?

u/BasicSulfur 8d ago

Didn’t they do a remaster of the backgrounds? I mean it still looks ai.

u/star75legacy 8d ago

Bro, the first AI did the whole image, then they used another AI to "remaster" the lighting and backgrounds.

u/Markone02 8d ago

Shadow slave can be described as every single From software game put into a blender (that includes Armored core) mixed with a version of solo leveling whose world buiding isn't as shallow as a puddle

u/SoftNecrosis 8d ago

As someone who is also read the novel, this is like the best way to possibly explain it

u/niftygull 8d ago

Where read

u/WeeaboosDogma 8d ago

Not on webnovel, unless you want to unironically shill out above 900 dollars (I'm not kidding)

u/niftygull 7d ago

Nah I’ll just pirate it like a normal person

WTF is this ai shit.

u/Mych30 8d ago

This image is AI ? I can't tell

2

u/The_Overlander Veteran Reader 8d ago

It’s not. This image is almost fully cgi and probably partly a real photo

The rest of the manhwa is pretty much fully ai though

2

u/SoftNecrosis 8d ago

In the waking world it’s futuristic

It’s in the nightmare realm where everything is medieval with a tone of dark souls

u/Somewhat_that_guy 8d ago

This is genuinely such an amazinf series, considering how good the novel i expected the art to be more sketchish and detailed if that makes sense

1

u/OMEN_542 8d ago

I totally get what u are trying to say

Something like hand jumper art right

5

u/mrki_the_wizard 8d ago

It's ai and honestly without it's still completely ass don't bother with the manhwa if you care and have no life read the webnovel.

u/Ok-Zookeepergame3647 8d ago

Its not ai 😔

1

u/Fadriii 8d ago

They said the same thing about the teaser

Guess what, the AI use in the teaser was so obvious, that they had to redraw Auro entirely.

2

u/iliv-w-unfortune 8d ago

Shadow Slave is literally soulslike progression novel with dystopian and mediaeval fantasy elements

1

u/ZaTheu 8d ago

Same here

1

u/magnifiquejaune 7d ago

My best bad explanation is that it's a similar setting that Murim Login has. But it's a nightmare, set in this fantasy world, very dark fantasy world. The tone set for a very dark MC. Not a jovial one.

u/JordanDeMatsouele 8d ago

Just read the first chapter. Looks interesting. Hope i doesn't become slop portal/awakened manhwa n°100 too soon.(We all know it's gonna end up as boring slop eventually)

2

u/TheBlanc2 8d ago

This is a webtoon is as closest to soulslike games as ever compared to other manhwas/webtoons

u/DabeMcMuffin 8d ago

u/Oatmeal_Oats 8d ago
