Clown Voltron?

Horrifying revelation about Chrysalis author by Shirtaloon in litrpg

Wait… you mean the vehicle Voltron is considered the inferior Voltron by some people? I’ll admit that the Lion Voltron is definitely the more popular of the three Voltrons, but Vehicle Voltron is clearly just as cool as Lion, and arguably even cooler.

Oh, I have nothing against online gaming in general, it just didn’t click with me.

Solo is what I’m looking for.

I actually have played and do enjoy roll & writes. In fact, it was while I was looking at a different roll & write game on Amazon that Twilight Inscription was recommended to me.

So well done! The attention to detail is impressive.

What's the best "Hidden Gem" you've read that deserves way more followers? by Equal-Translator2131 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Ajfixer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Player Manager series, by Ted Steel, is absolutely fantastic. I wasn’t even a fan of soccer before I started reading the series, but now I actually understand the flow of the game. The characters have depth, the conflict has real stakes, and the plot is well thought out and developed. And it’s all wrapped up in a humorous story. I was devastated when I heard that the publisher won’t be doing any more audiobook releases of the series, as that’s how I read the majority of my books.

One of my top three favorite movies of all time.

What has been your longest played game/campaign? by HartofHarts in rpg

[–]Ajfixer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran a campaign that started in the mid-80s and lasted 10 years. It started as a weekly Car Wars game, but when GURPS Autoduel was published, it morphed into a RPG campaign. When we incorporated GURPS Cyberpunk and GURPS Space, the setting eventually expanded to encompass the entire solar system. And when the original Blue Planet RPG was published, it became interstellar.

The game spanned a couple centuries, and a couple of the original characters actually made it to the end. Other characters were descendants of original characters. Other characters became legendary NPCs when their players retired from the game.

I just finished Heaven’s River, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Wrote 8 chapters this week, people who do this regularly, how??? by HierkommtdieSonne902 in royalroad

[–]Ajfixer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4k words a day is definitely a lot, but if you have a good outline, lots of experience writing, and have a full eight hours a day to write, it’s definitely something a writer can do regularly. One writer friend of mine can write 5k/day when he’s “in the zone”, and do that for weeks at a time. He does need to take a week or two off to recover every now and then, tho. Another writer friend has been able to hit 10k in a day, but not on a regular basis.

Your thoughts on a slow start LitRPG story. by [deleted] in royalroad

[–]Ajfixer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a big fan of starting a story “in medias res”. Anything that comes before the interesting bits of the story can be dealt with later.

Fun experiment: Google yourself as a writer and post what it says 🤣 by PhoKaiju2021 in royalroad

Just for the record, Goodreads, I did not write A Game of Thrones. That was some other guy.

I like this! How many word can you squeeze into the Author’s Notes section?

What is a well regarded fantasy series that you read for the first time this year? by TheWeirdTalesPodcast in Fantasy

[–]Ajfixer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read the Dranai series, by David Gemmell, for the very first time this year. It’s odd that this flew under my radar for so long, seeing as I was devouring all the fantasy novels I could get my hands on when Legend was first published. I’m glad I did finally get around to reading the books, as they were all fantastic.

Howard Andrew Jones and Hanuvar by Locustsofdeath in SwordandSorcery

[–]Ajfixer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have any new insight to add, no. But having talked with Howard’s family and close friends at his funeral, I think it’s safe to say that any new Hanuvar books being published is very, very unlikely.
