From a novel reader

As a reader of the novel, I'm going to say this might be the closest novel to drama adaptation ever. It kept almost all of the parts in the novel and added storylines to the main and side characters the original novel was pretty quick and simple but the drama added more depth to it. I'm kind of disappointed that because of budget and time the drama had to end on such a 'cliffhanger-y' note but the extra episode at the end of everything(ep37) gave us a good simple explanation of things as long as you look closer into the scenes and details. Watch it, the costumes, effects, music(omg the music in this drama was ALMOST just as good as The Untamed) I recommend going online to find the ost of Word Of Honor after or before watching it because the songs were beautiful. Stop reading reviews and just go watch it gogogo!

Douluo Continent?? This drama has nothing to do with the novel.

This might literally be the worst review I've ever given to anything. As a reader of the original novel, I would like to ask...What's the point in using the title of the novel, characters, and names from it when you're changing the entire plotline? The casting in this drama is horrible -I'm sorry- I love all of the actors and I support every one of them but they really shouldn't be used in this show. First of all, they don't fit the roles of their characters, and... you're having XiaoZhan play a 10yearold->adult role all throughout the drama when you also hired a child actor to play tangsan as a child. The writing of this drama and the whole design of the plot and type of drama is by far the worst. If you are going to change the backstory, time period, character design, and their personalities then please...just call it a different title, you're already changing the whole story why don't you just change the names with it. This drama is just using famous idols and a famous story title to grab viewers. The only reason I'm still watching is to support the actors...Almost everyone in China who has read the novel has a bad review of the drama. The only reason why I'm giving it a bad review is the fact that they are using a perfectly good novel and storyline, but end up changing everything in it. Last note...what in the world are the spirit animals...titan ape became a white gorilla and the man-faced spider became an enlarged tarantula???
