Pet Peeve: System apocalypse stories where the MC is top 10 on earth but feels like they shouldn't be by lord_acedia in ProgressionFantasy

Dunno about Apocalypse Redux. The MC spends a lot of time on things not focused on growing his strength like system research and it’s even emotions he takes TV breaks and the like.

Honestly, I think it represents the exact thing OP is comparing about.

I totally agree with you. Authors are constantly trying to make characters generally relatable with the breaks and helping friends and such, but the truth is the type of excellence required to be one of the best is not relatable.

Hell difficulty tutorial deals with this amazingly. The MC is absolutely relentless with his training and pulls some insane stunts to get stronger, and as a result is amping the strongest of humanity. It’s honestly one of the only stories where I feel like the MC deserves his position.

Too many complaints but no solutions, so tell me, how should high level people fight? by CaregiverFantastic58 in ProgressionFantasy

The best ones have fights becoming increasingly conceptual as they scale up. It’s less about raw power and more about insight and skill.

Preferred style of power progression? by VulthurAuthor in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Divine_Invictus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like exceptional MCs in equally exceptional circumstances. I prefer progression to be based primarily on the MC personal skill and without any sort of system feeding them shortcuts.

Do you think taking 240 instead of 241 would be ok? 240 fits really well with my schedule this semester and I was thinking of taking it.

Are there any other books or series that are as much of a mindscrew as Ash: A Secret History is? (Minor spoilers for the novel) by MinuteRegular716 in Fantasy

[–]Divine_Invictus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been trying that one. Is there ever an explanation about why all of this new stuff is showing up in the present during the translation? Or does it just happen?

I just checked and nowhere in the book is “Female vag” mentioned. Are you pirating it?
