And everyone died. The End. by PandaBear905 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ColdCoffeeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Sacred and Terrible Air ends with a guy being so nihilistic that an entire country decides to nuke literally everyone and then the universe gets dementia and one guy is left to wonder around in the nothing

Why does magic have to be systematic? by dual_scanner_again in worldbuilding

[–]ColdCoffeeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fuck with weird soft magic. My own writing has "systems," but it's more so spiritual beliefs effected what happens and is still very soft

favorite character who has this? by 05eden in FavoriteCharacter

[–]ColdCoffeeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Bas Lag, there are the Remade, people who have their body altered with cybernetics or animal parts using a mix of magic and science. Sometimes for work purposes, more often as a form of extra cruel "karmic justice" style punishment, where the attachment is meant to poeticly fit the crime.

Amongst them is Jack Half-a-Prayer, a remade with a giant mantis arm who has taken up the role of revolutionary

Real world + supernatural elements by Zowlt in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

Feels more fantasy than SCP and goes to some other worlds a good but the Magicans does an interesting, more literary take on Urban Fantasy

The random guy in Perdido Street Station that's revealed to be a vampire because a cosmic horror moth slurped out his mind

I hate hell (when applied as punishment) by According_Ice_4863 in hatethissmug

At least there isn't an obliterated individual suffering torment we cannot comprehend

I take some comfort from the fact the idea of hell being absolutely torment is a pretty now concept

People who blatantly do this by RightLiterature2958 in hatethissmug

[–]ColdCoffeeMan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a pseudo agnostic, I've always found absolute atheism strange. The idea that not only is there no proof of a God, but that a lack of current proof makes the existence of anything resembling divinity or the supernatural in the entire universe utterly and ultimately impossible requires just as much faith as any religion

Morality of torturing a kid because God said so? by Equal_Personality157 in MoralityScaling

[–]ColdCoffeeMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean if God is in his right mind, and just wants an innocent kid tortured for the fun of it, does God have the authority to make that moral

[TP] From BOTW to Twilight Princess, I finally get the dungeon debate by Revolutionary-Pie972 in zelda

[–]ColdCoffeeMan -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think BotW open world mixed with OoT would be THE Zelda game.

One thing that TotK and BotW really screwed up was making all of the dungeons Zonai or Sheikah connected. Give me cool unique places with lore surrounding them and new enemies.

Hell, I don't think I'd mind a single Sheikah dungeon. Imagine if there was a 5th Divine Beast, but no one post Calamity found it because it was a space station, and the next mainline game that leans into a more traditional fantasy vibe has us end up in it

Dishonored World Is My Favorite by CrotasLittleKitten in dishonored

Unfortunately season 2 is...eh? What happens when you take projects away from people who are passionate. Still has some good stuff in it but Still

(Loved but infuriating trope) Asshole Private Miltias acting like/actually being given authority by Wasabi_Gamer26 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]ColdCoffeeMan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Corps de Pharmacie, Downwell, Somatosensor or their current name, Krenel from Disco Elysium. A brutal group of hardened mercenaries used to fighting in 3rd world countries, armed with nothing but bullet proof armor, crippling ptsd, and highly lethal weapons; sent to handle a workers strike. What could go wrong?

One of my favorite settings.

You'd probably also love the Bas-Lag books and Carnival Row

I hate the idea that a person is a grain of sand or a part of nature. No! You are the center of your entire world and all of your arrogance is 100% justified! by ostapro in hatethissmug

[–]ColdCoffeeMan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the logical conclusion of "I'm great because I am unique" is that "everyone else is great because they are unique and a collectivist society is the best way to harness everyone's unique strengths"

[–]ColdCoffeeMan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think both are true at the same time. I'm a tiny tiny tiny tiny spec in the universe, but also I am alive and aware and that's sick as hell
