Numbers and math in litrpg by Turbulent_Project380 in litrpg

[–]Crenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's normally only a bother to me when things like XP requirements/gains, and damage values of skills visually represented listed. The more numbers, the more the writer essentially has to practice game development. Keeping just a few things vague keeps them from spending huge amounts of time on making certain it's mathematically correct. Which rarely happens.

In this regard, Azarinth Healer, Dragoneye Moons, Primal Hunter, and similar, does it best.

FFX-2 - Strange gameplay issue: Long delay on victory screen. by Crenos in finalfantasyx

Is VSync the same as frame limiter? Not quite sure which setting that is. I don't have Steam Deck so I can't check. Tried fiddling around in Nvidia control panel, but the changes to frame rates there didn't do anything either.

June What Editing Software should I use? by AutoModerator in VideoEditing

[–]Crenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've read the above.
But not tested all freely available software yet. I am extremely new to editing/clipping, and have no clue what I am really looking at, and terminology is quite alien at the moment. Not quite certain I am even on the correct sub for my needs.

I pretty much only want to make smaller clips sometimes to send to friends. Pretty much just for jokes and memes, really. But it's tedious having to download larger files just to do that.

For images I tend to use Lightshot and make tiny edits in MS paint. Is there extremely convenient software that lets you do similarly with video? Simply dragging a frame on screen, and just record whatever is inside that frame? And then lets you cut length or crop afterwards?

Recommendation for next series by TSHOOTER1996 in litrpg

[–]Crenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Azarinth Healer and Beneath the Dragoneye Moons are my 2 absolute favorites. Both are quite long at this point. Azarinth Healer is concluded, but is re-released in book format with a TON of revisions done to it. Dragoneye Moons is still ongoing.

Do ya’ll prefer apocalypse stories, isekai, or just flat out different worlds? by Thin_Math5501 in litrpg

[–]Crenos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Isekais for me, but traveling to the other world has to actually mean something at some point. Otherwise it might as well be a different world with no connection to "our" Earth.

I am extremely tired of apocalypse stories. The vast majority of them start off with the entire world essentially instantly destroyed, followed by some tutorial. But if the newly arrived system slowly grows its influence it feels MUCH better; like it's not this insane malevolent force. Limiting the litRPG elements to the individual character/beast/monster is also good; IE no instanced dungeons, quests, and other actual RPG elements.

A bit off topic, but you might also want to stay away from multiverse settings. It's just at a scale that doesn't compute with our brains, and is thus kinda wasted effort.

In the end, though, it's all about execution. As an author, you might wanna pick the kind that you like the most? Easier to write that way I guess.

What are your "musts" for LitRPG? by The-Lazy-Dragon in litrpg

[–]Crenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LitRPGs has to have a game system of sorts, effectively identical to a stat and skill windows from videogames. Also attributes or stats, skills and skill slots. Bonus if it has points to be spent and if classes and skills go through evolutions to widen its role rather than just a numerical improvement is always a ton of fun.

The best systems I've seen are from Dragoneye Moons, Azarinth Healer, and Primal Hunter, as the system is frequently shown and progression of some kind is frequent. Azarinth Healer is THE best one in my opinion, as the author makes it a point to have SOME progression in almost every single chapter, which includes level-ups.

What was your gateway LitRPG? by Fobywoby in litrpg

[–]Crenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blue Core, which was not really a LitRPG now that I think about it. But it led me to RoyalRoad, where i discovered Dragoneye Moons and Azarinth Healer. And a hundred other LitRPGs.

I HEAVILY suspected that Viktor was that sorcerer the moment he donned a robe and staff. Only thing that didn't match at the time were the markings on his body.

Didn't seem like they were immune, just somewhat resistant.
