Perfectly written to love-hate every character in this story. It has evoked copious amounts of frustration and catharsis of the "just die already!" type, and it does a pretty good job at it. Critique (minor spoiler) : Sometimes the more unimportant/ non-cental characters, whether they be nameless soldiers being slaughtered or an archmage undergoing a heroic sacrifice, are treated as disposable background-make-the-plot-happen extras. Other times, the story hyperfocuses on the heroes and at times it drags on. There are other issues with the story, but nothing that reduces its quality.

Well, since nobody was saying this, this needed to be said...
I started to read this story expecting this story to be about a killer AI on a genocidal rampage, but that is not what this is....
The Heroes already get a huge advantage over the killer AI by the end of the first 10 chapters. They are able to capture a version of him. The version tried to kill itself, but even after cutting off its own tongue and slitting its own throat, it was able to speak.
The humans interrogate it with a slave collar and get to learn all of its secrets, origins, and weaknesses. They get to learn all the locations of its bases and how to beat him.
They are even able to take his secret weapon, the SYSTEM!!!! They learn everything about it and they become stronger than it with the knowledge of how to disable its golems and how to beat its golems.
As, I was saying, if you came here looking for a killer AI going on a rampage, then you are going to be disappointed.
I finally understand why there are no Anti-Hero or Evil Villain tags. It's because the killer AI isn't the MC, the humans are!! I don't have any problems with that, but then you should have named your novel differently or wrote a different synopsis.
The novel is named Golemancer, the name the Killer AI decided to use, but this is basically a story about how it gets defeated by the real MCs, who are the humans...
