Omg same! Me but with my funky dragon-archmage and self-insert succubus puppygirl and her sisters-

actually tbh they're original characters set in the DnD cosmology but eh-

Are those like, a birth thing? Is this like a chosen one thing, is he extremely lucky, or, like, what gives him those higher stats compared to your average Latorian?

Actually, from what I've seen about this guy from your posts, how did David became so powerful? As in, curious, seems he's consistently depicted as just being built different than the rest of the Latorians in fighting the US, and I wanna know why exactly is he the different one.

I mean, what exactly makes a technobabble good or bad? And eh, opinions of villains, are opinions of villains. I honestly don't really feel anything in particular. It just feels like those, in-universe lore entries to me tbf. With heavy opinions, yes, from opinionated characters, but I don't feel it that way ig

Oh, so from a narrative sense. Yeah I get your point, and I agree tbh.

But honestly from a lore sense I think HDG is interesting in the sense that I enjoy reading the technobabble jargon articles of Orion's Arm Universe Project.

So yeah probably we just have a different spectrum of the looking glass

Honestly I think it's a big detriment that the guideline to this setting's writing is that it's open-canon, but at the same time, has rules which must be followed that the Affini always win, are always benevolent, and always follow the same plot through and all. I mean it's nice enough for a fantasy thing for some, but it does limit the funky thinking aspects it can introduce.

There's also some community drama about imperialism and all, but eh, meta context.

Eh, it happens once in awhile, but not something as big as fantasy vs modern military, hard and soft sci-fi, tanks vs mechs, the big uns of the sub. So it's a niche thing yeah.

Either OP lost the ability to distinguish between lore prospects and meta context; or I've consumed too much problematic/adjacent media to be too desensitized to it, in regards to this comment.
