tldr: used to be entertaining, now MC is just collecting stuff without making much progress.
It's a bit like a dungeon core story, especially considering that the MC is basically stuck in one place. He's pretty much just amassing resources and people but there's not much of an idea of what's next. There doesn't seem to be an end because enemies just spawn infinitely and every time there seems to be progress, it turns out he's only made a tiny step in a giant marathon. It's like mid to late game in a gacha game where you've already beaten the story and the only things left are dailies, arena, and waiting for the devs to release new content that'll probably just be another side story adventure with the same old gameplay and a slightly stronger boss, though you might switch it up by sending in one of the hundreds of heroes you haven't bothered to use before *cough* Epic 7 *cough*.

This is a great novel about the variety of possibilities, with the added creativity of external settings.
The character's relationships are quite close, but it feels a bit lacking but it fits the perspective of a tree-main character.

It's a cool concept and story, but the characters are all cardboard and only for plot. The MC is way too stupid and all the characters are annoying and really ungrateful towards him. Everything is just stale, this is a story that will strive off your hunger for a little while longer for the time you find an actual good story.

Mediocre.
The MC is a braindead tree, his time perspective is weird. He seems obsessed in doing things a certain way. Doesn't use his abilities to change things as much as he can, it seems like he actually forgets most of his abilities sometimes
He is selfish. He is very trusting of some people for no reason and very paranoid of others. He's just grabbed hold of the first people who stayed with him for a time and seems obsessed with focusing on them.

My biggest complaint for the story itself is that there's just no way the population would survive a 10 year demon king cycle. Consider this;
So... that's a 10 year cycle... and it would simply not be sustainable. There would be no one left after 20 years.
My most prominent other criticism deals with the child soldiers. I really don't think this author has ever been around a 6 year old, however, I have children myself and I'm here to tell you, you would simply not be able to train 6-10 year olds how to fight demons with martial weapons.
It would have been much better for the story and the Mc's morality if he increased their potential/endurance/passive skills (all of which would be possible given the rules of this world) instead the author went with the child soldier route.. idk why.

This definitely is overrated.
The story itself is fine. Same for the concept. The problem is with the execution. The writing comes off as amateurish. The characters don't really feel distinct except for maybe the MC.

This story has some major points that you need to be aware of before reading there is some spoilers but I wouldn't care if I was you, these points were enough for me to drop after 27 chapters, basically as thats when the bulk of the stupidity of all the characters shows through the most, although its present from the very beginning.
1) the MC is an idiot, he has zero ability to think ahead and constantly makes stupid decisions for example when three groups of refugees arrive in his Forrest at the end of autumn/ start of winter he expects them to survive in the cold of winter without allowing them to cut down any trees for firewood even though he can grow over 100 trees a month with his abilities, later when he trusts them a bit more he lets them cut down a tree per YEAR, ONE TREE!!!
2) the grammar and spelling is pretty bad and the author makes no effort to improve or edit.
3) the characters around the MC constantly call him wise and mighty after he makes a stupid decision when all that does is not only point out how stupid the MC is but also how stupid the supporting characters are.
4) the MC name is treetree, I mean honestly, in the story a little girl calls the MC treetree because that's what 2 year old children do, BUT after that the MC decided that he was going to name himself treetree like wtf, my nephew could call me poopy face but I'm not gonna change my name to it!! All it does is emphasise the mc's stupidity like he's trying to have a proper adult discussion about refugees and allocating land but he introduces himself as "treetree the guardian tree spirit" I'm honestly surprised the refugees didn't just burst out laughing cos that's what I did when I read it (not because of comedic premise but just pure stupidity)
Overall not worth the time it takes to read I want my hours back, I actually think some of my brain cells died while reading this.

tl;dr - definitely give the first 3 or 4 chapters a try, I think you'll get hooked!
I'm not going to lie. Given the title, synopsis, and a seriously OTT story I previously found on RR with a similar premise, I really was not expecting a lot from this. I am quite happy that I still decided to give it a go. The first chapter starts off a bit rough, but with each chapter the author quickly gets into the setting and the story really grabs you. The characters could do with a little more development, maybe, but at the same time the story is told from the perspective of a tree who doesn't care too much for most people and has an increasingly different perception of time, so I guess it makes sense in a way. The chapters are nice and long, too, which I very much appreciate - too many authors seem to focus on quantity and update frequency over length, these days, which hampers immersion and enjoyment IMO even if the quality is still high.

About the only criticism I have is that the title doesn’t follow the same naming conventions as the chapter titles.
There are a lot of interesting tree puns when naming, and tons of timeskips especially recently, but the worst part is that it’s called an ‘isekai’ instead of a ‘treesekai’.

The main character is a tree. 999 out of 5. Oh it doesn't go that high? I'll settle for 5 then.
