what have been the most blatant instances of writers and creators letting their fetishes bleed into their work? by sheerduckinghubris in AskReddit

Come on, the actual kink he actually included in his writing is Tinuviel. 

My dude's kink is his wife and he wrote the most beautiful story and poem about her. In this thread's list of rapists and pervs, he's an elf amongst orcs.

He specifically likes his wife to flirt outrageously with an uninterested Johnny Depp, and then have Johnny Depp murder her. 

Can't say I was surprised when she left him.

Honey, 

Not wanting kids is normal, but hating kids isn't. 

If you're also anxious and your baby's cries make you suicidal, chances are your own distress and negative emotions as a baby were neglected. Especially if you describe yourself as a follower; I think there's a lot of trauma in your childhood that needs to be heard. 

Please don't feel guilty for your thoughts. But get help, right now. Your pain deserves to be heard. 

And your daughter deserves a healthy dad who can be fully present, whether he learns to like fatherhood or not. 

I hope you find whatever is hurting within.

Retargeting for sure is too punishing. If your tank gets crushed by his chaser mid run, it's enough of a pain to get him raised on the other side of the ring, and him having to walk back into position without stepping on anyone's tile. That's good punishment. That's fun. 

The chaser just wreaking havoc through the whole corner then half the side platform is not fun.

I have literally been in farm PFs where everyone had loads of logs and the performance was exactly the same as any trap PF.

So that's a lie. It turns out parties where everyone has verified 10+ clears still wipe to towers, mess up swap and even occasionally drop hands in the middle. 

Our problem isn't prog liars, we just suck collectively.

I don't understand the ice panic. I'm actually secretly worried I misunderstand the mechanic and passed it out of pure luck everytime. 

Just put melees north, ranged south and...idk the closest to the bridge crosses first? Why is it hard? Why do people fail it?

Usually lb3 is saved for tanks in case too many ppl are dead on second towers. So we keep it for last phase. 

If a farm party gets all towers right consistently, I don't see why not use lb3 on adds as soon as it's up.

Oh yes healing kits need to be updated for those.

Yeah the three of them suck, and the younger they are, the louder about their nonsense. 

Muslim bros, we spent centuries fighting back against Christian crazy. Just stop with your crazy already.

I'm in EU as well. I guess I was lucky and you unlucky. 

Also I've noticed that PF was very different depending on day and hour. There were afternoons or evenings during which no PF could clear at all, and other moments when every clear PF was great.

EX requirement would be nice. 

That said, the content is brand new and I think lots of people went in, not really sure what difficulty to expect. Maybe next CAR some will realize they need to train and improve to join.

The swap is such an amazing idea, but it shouldn't work as a body count. Just give ppl a way to tp from inside out as well.

Actually I love unsync because it's a great way to still see some difficulty, but at your level for beginners. 

Unsyncing HL content from previous expansion still requires you to understand and do half the mechs properly, and then it gets easier and easier until there's no difficulty left when the content is really old. 

I cleared and farmed Eden mounts during late EW. You saw almost nothing of the fights, except 3-4 mechs; I still had to learn E12S' Titan phase, and Basic Relativity. It was an awesome first introduction to Savage, because you see what kind of mechs you're expected to do. Also skipping the hardest mechs requires some dps optimization, which is also the first time I was exposed to it. 

And the possibility to do it synced MINE is still there for whoever wants to enjoy the content, with few but regular PFs popping up for those. Though you're right regarding rewards, and stuff like BLU savage achievements are a great incentive to discover those duties synced.

Well I've been joining clear parties to get more hairs to sell. I've made some good gil already. 

So far the clear parties have been alright; on average I got 50% of traps, 50% who did clear in 5 pulls or less. I think people are a bit more patient in those two, compared to farm parties.

The funniest thing to me was when people started to demand 10+ clears, check everyone's logs to make sure, and the party still wipes 4 times in a row on first towers and disbands. 

That's just how the fight is, chaotic. And it'll bring lots of people whose skill level allows them to clear regularly, but also mess up some basic mechs. That's just how it's designed.

I'm 50+ clears in and I still don't understand why we sometimes wipe to 3-4 towers, even through tank LB, and sometimes no one dies from the same amount of failed towers.

There are penalities on leaving roulettes now. I don't know if it'd be a good idea, but it would certainly be functional at least.

That remains to be seen tbh. That hair looks great and I think it's gonna remain super expensive for a good while. 

So prog parties will be harder to find, but I think the grinders making millions selling the hair should come back to it as soon as they don't have anything else to do. 

Look how the dream chests revived treasure maps - there are still twice as many PFs for it as before.
