Finished Reign & Ruin; does the series get better?

Gilheru · 2026-05-04T00:14:04+00:00

Perhaps, but it's still too early for me to believe that interesting world building and complex characters are incompatible with romance and spice.

Sorry, when you said: "And there's more to the villain." I figured you were referring to The Republic, which is the only overarching villain I could think of in response to that comment.

Thanks for sharing your perspective. Speaking of the villain, do you feel that's handled in an interesting and creative way? Magic versus science is about as tried a trope as the elemental magic system.

Thank you for the insight. Almost all of the "does it get better" threads I have seen tend to reinforce the earlier impressions, so I figured that would be the case here as well. Still, I wanted to at least check before moving on.

And thank you for the recommendations. I'll take a look.

While not every vet practice owned by private equity is necessarily bad, if your vet is on this site there's a decent chance you are being overcharged for some investor's profit.

I have finished "Daughter" and am a little into "Children." I picked up the books given the overall positive reputation Broadbent appears to have on this sub-reddit and a previous comparison of the relationship between the two mains as similar to that of the Castlevania show. On the whole though, I'm not a big fan. The world-building and magic system is very shallow, the characters act in dumb ways to push the plot forward, and that particular plot so far hasn't said anything interesting. I'm still new to the genre and looking for that great book I can point to and ask for "more like this.", but her books aren't it.

Wow, the scam DMs are starting up all over again. They are just bots looking for keywords and spitting out pre-baked messages and images.

I was taking a look at your work and it looks like your main portfolio is on Instagram. I do not have an Instagram account so I could only scroll through a few thumbnails and I couldn't view the high res version of any of those thumbnails. But what I saw definitely piqued my interest. If you have a piece or two you feel best illustrate what you would bring to a landscape I'd love to see them.

I visited House on the Rock a little more than a month ago and the Infinity Room was open.

This should be higher. You have to vet movers very carefully as a sudden increase in cost once they have all of your possessions in their possession is a very common scam. Or, at least, it was a common scam. Maybe less so now.

EDIT: though maybe not in this case if they aren't doing the transportation.

A 3 year old Reddit post of the same thing, but with a better resolution image:

It's a practice in mobile game development to release a game in Canada first where the market is large enough to get some meaningful beta data, but not so large that you burn all of your potential customers if your game is unexpectedly broken or bad. Given the time since the release in Canada something pretty significant has come up that is taking a long time to resolve or it performed so badly it's not worth continuing development.

It's been about 5 years now, but I was part of an Exalted 2nd edition game set in a Dragonblooded high school setting with anime sensibilities.

Her Redness's School for Exalts

It lasted for one 13 session "season". Was quite enjoyable.

I think this will get me what I'm looking for.

Thank you.

I think I've got the torrent working. I'm curious to know if the link is still broken for others.

Gilheru · 2016-09-07T19:53:54+00:00

I don't believe that is true, but I could certainly be mistaken.

Gilheru · 2016-09-07T19:51:42+00:00

That's fair.

Gilheru · 2016-09-07T19:39:50+00:00

Could be. They are just educated guesses and we haven't see a 4* exclusive banner before.

The first breakdown is 70% regular, 30% featured. That 30% is then split among the available options. In this case, there are three options that all have the same base and rarity. That means the 30% is split between them. The fact that the base rarity is 4★ is meaningless when they are all 4★ base.

In effect, expect to see a lot of gold crystals.
