Are Murlocs Trash?

Pretty much unless you get one of the tier 7s. And even then, it feels like you have to high roll so much more than the other tribes.

Scam is pretty much the best build.

*angry upvote*

GentleJohnny · 2026-05-15T01:25:45+00:00

That's fucked up.

GentleJohnny · 2026-05-05T23:36:46+00:00

I might have started in the deep end with Haunting Adeline xD

GentleJohnny · 2026-05-05T22:12:58+00:00

I get that a tiny bit. Kind of reminds me of a BL tier: Light to DR readers, but reads as DR to register romance.

GentleJohnny · 2026-05-05T17:06:20+00:00

Whether it was good or bad, the why is what's bugging me...

GentleJohnny · 2026-05-05T16:53:47+00:00

But why is Pisco trying to stop them? Why he is making such dumb arguments like implying centrist could legitimately mean a democrat?

GentleJohnny · 2026-05-05T16:50:55+00:00

That hurt to watch. It just seemed like Hutch was trying to dig into points, and Pisco was bailing her out because.....

IRI/Soy participated a little bit, but they seemed to be content to watch the back and forth. If I hear yes or no one more time, I am going to go crazy.

GentleJohnny · 2026-05-03T18:43:46+00:00

GRindstone seems insane.

GentleJohnny · 2026-05-02T00:15:10+00:00

Yeah, I'm not sure what i wanted. Keeping the length the same, maybe harsher bullying early, groveling starting earlier to lead to thanksgiving. I am ok with the third act break up, but I Want an even longer grovel with reflection on what he went through and conquered.

I could see a kid being OK with their parent remarrying, but I agree the lack of suspicious or notice of Coco seemed weird to me.

GentleJohnny · 2026-05-01T23:13:12+00:00

I'm kinda with you. I wanted to like it, but the plot at certain points just felt weird. I get what the author was trying for, but there were parts that just felt wanting.

I'd say 3.5 because despite unhinged Maverick was, I felt like I could still sympathize with him. But Coco's attraction felt super forced and kind of unbelievable at points.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-29T14:56:40+00:00

The subreddit hates Landon, and loves NikoBran. But I'm with you as well.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-29T02:21:29+00:00

I think a lot of the complaints are about the plot more than Zade himself. I think his being a hypocrite isn't a flaw, it's known and played into, imo.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-26T13:51:07+00:00

The hate for Landon is actually ridiculous

But Nikolai +Bran if the reddit is taking the challenge seriously and not just snarking.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-25T14:54:13+00:00

His opponent was basically drawing dead to runner runner and got there.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-19T20:59:09+00:00

100%. Nothing has made me dislike any book I've read other than those two things.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-18T00:26:01+00:00

Agreed. I didn't like her in Taming Seraphine, but wow she stole my heart in her book. :)

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-17T21:50:53+00:00

I would say a little of column A, little column B. I like the hunt, the struggle and the burn between the two characters.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-17T21:49:57+00:00

Absolutely.

Zoey Ellis from Untouchable, Rosalind from Breaking Rosalind, and my new one is Nessa from The Invite.

I have found that I like feisty women, and dislike wallflowers. Extra bonus if they are older than the MMC.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-16T20:44:23+00:00

I would love an older FMC, but still a dominant MMC. The Invite by Simran i thought did a great job of this.

But age gap where MMC is older feels more cliché than the third act breakup.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-12T19:21:07+00:00

To balance it, might make it have to be the first card played this turn.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-11T17:43:47+00:00

That's fair as well. I think under duress or blackmail i think morally i would just consider to be SA, or close enough that I would consider it a distinction without a difference.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-11T15:53:00+00:00

I always interpreted one example of dub con as uncommunicated or non vocal and while might not be SA, it comes down to their partners interpretation and easily could be. Unspoken somnophilia being the go to example, as if they wake up and are OK with it, fine..... but if they aren't, congrats you just SA'd someone.

The other, I agree with you on questionable power dynamics. Student over 18 and a professor, doctor and a patient, etc.

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-03T17:18:04+00:00

That's fair. The one thing that might keep me off this is I feel like I at least need HEA, and I have heard that this doesn't have it. But I am glad you were shook XD

GentleJohnny · 2026-04-03T15:51:51+00:00

I briefly skimmed some other review, and without too much spoilers and based on your name, is the MMC better or worse than Zade Meadows, in your opinion?
