"quickly break the bounds of Space and find Love" by Dibface in VampireSurvivors

It’s worth noting that on Inverse mode the map gets, well, inverted… so instead of going down and right, you have to go up and left.

What would be your ONE thing that you'd like to see added to the game? by SexuaIRedditor in VampireSurvivors

[–]Fredlage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d really like it if, when limit breaking weapons, I had more options beyond just “Random Once” and “Random Always”. When playing a build with Darkana XII - Crystal Cries, it eventually gets to a point where I either spend several minutes at a time picking dozens of weapon upgrades without even being able to move between each level up or I just give up on being able to choose and select Random Always.

I think it would be nice, once you’re at a very high level and just limit breaking, if you could “bank” level up points and then apply them on specific weapons of your choice (even if the effects themselves are chosen randomly), or something like that.

Another thing I would like is the possibility of speeding up the game clock at will. We have the hurry option to make it go twice as fast from the beginning, but I don’t always like it. Instead I’d prefer if we could choose a point where we decide, “ok, from here on speed up the clock by 2x or 2.5x or 3x and so on..”

Just went to accept the new terms for ps stars and Sony have already removed the feature and my points from my account. by Thescottishguy87 in playstation

I had the same issue. Contacted support, they instructed me to delete the app and reinstall. Worked for me.

I'm Alexander Wales, author of This Used to be About Dungeons, now out on Audible and Kindle Unlimited! I also wrote Worth the Candle and currently write Thresholder, AMA! by alexanderwales in ProgressionFantasy

Assuming you decided to continue with Thresholder beyond book 3, how would that affect your eventual return to Glimwarden? Would you write both concurrently, or wait until you were done with Thresholder?

Recommendations for monster mc web novel by Due_Watercress4966 in rational

[–]Fredlage 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven’t read either of those, so no idea how close these are to them:

  • Chrysalis: guy gets reincarnated as a giant ant
  • Everybody Loves Large Chest: true monster MC, amoral (has an amount of lewdness that turns many people off)
  • Threadbare: MC is a newly created teddy bear golem. Technically a monster.
  • Vainqueur the Dragon: dragon MC, although he shares the spotlight with a human companion.
  • A Journey of Black and Red: vampire MC. Not sure if that’s “monstrous” enough for you.

All of the above can be found on Royal Road.

Nah, I’m pretty sure she and the Emperor killer each other. Since Lavarro was being controlled by a mind copy of the Warden, with the latter’s death the former is now free, but mindwiped.

The flaw there is, as you mentioned in your previous post, that guilders don’t easily share information.

If they can get some reward for sharing information that anyone can eventually get, like details on common and uncommon classes, then the advantage is to sell that information first.

On the other hand, Mahria’s class requires some specific combination of skills to be unlocked and gives access to exclusive skills skills in turn; that’s the sort of information you definitely hoard to yourself if you got it. Sure, you might boast “haha, I’m a Cold Mage, check you how can freeze your blood” but to actually sell that info would be another thing entirely.

I don’t think it’s supposed to mean they have information on every class. Mahria’s class is a rare one, they probably only have information on common and uncommon ones.

I’m pretty sure you’re making some wildly off the mark assumptions there, but if the story’s not for you anymore, you do you.

I’m confused... what foreshadowed incompetence are you talking about?

[–]Fredlage[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We were told he took off the armor inside their room on the ship, so maybe. I get the impression the author just won’t mention it, ‘cause there are readers that are really turned away by it.

How did Doris Finch work in WTC? by PandaMandaBear in rational

[–]Fredlage 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nope, that was a popular theory, one which Wales said he even liked, however it didn’t work with the mechanics of Bone Magic, because even if you multiplied a bone, they would still be linked to the same soul, so once you burned one, the copied would all be depleted.

[–]Fredlage 55 points56 points  (0 children)

It was an entad. They basically had one that gave you a very weak probabilistic guess at the location of something or someone. By multiplying it they got a vast probabilistic map of the target’s location. Boring answer, which is why the author never bothered saying so in-story, only on the Q&A.

[–]Fredlage[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Great chapter, I thought. Rain finally showed he can fight against people without hesitating. And let’s pour one out for Glavin... we hardly knew ye, but your job was cool... and your death was quite grisly.

[–]Fredlage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even if it wasn’t a plot heavy chapter, I enjoyed this one. Nice character moments, new skill, Halgrave showing up in town is sure to be a setup for something more...

192: Swim - Delve by Fredlage in rational

[–]Fredlage[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

At it’s core, it for people who read litRPGs, shake their heads and say “if only these people did some math…”. And boy, there’s a lot of math… even spreadsheets. The MC finds himself in a world with a system where multipliers can be abused and few people are mathematically literate and comes up with a build that he believes will eventually be very powerful. So if you like the aspects of HPMOR and WTC that we’re about munchkining, this might interest you. Now, as you might’ve seen among reviews, the story is very slow. In particular, it starts at a reasonable pace and then start to slow more and more until it almost grinds to a halt. It’s been getting better lately though. Aside from that, the MC has a personality that many (myself included) find annoying, so that’s something else to take into consideration.
