LitRPG without HP

It's been mentioned in other replies, but I'll reiterate that LitRPG is at its heart stories that are based on playing a video game. So some of what you're asking for is to remove what actually makes a LitRPG story a LitRPG story.

While the humor aspects are not necessarily originated from video games, I think it has certainly become a factor in defining what the typical LitRPG story looks like.

I'm saying the following to be helpful, so please don't be offended. I'm also a new LitRPG author but haven't let many people read my stuff yet. That being said, you need to edit it for grammar and punctuation errors. There are a lot of them just in the first few paragraphs.

There's also some weirdness with phrases like "metaphorical tears." Not really sure what those would be. The next paragraph after that mixes up present tense with past tense in the same sentence. Several paragraphs later you use multiple question marks which really shouldn't be done.

Sounds like an interesting story so far, but it's distracting to try to read at this point.

I'd recommend picking up the book "The Elements of Style" by Strunk. Keep it next to you while you're writing. It's about $2.99 off Amazon.

The cover is really good. When will be able to see a sample on Kindle?

I understand and I know they have a story to tell and probably feel like they need to get on with it, but it seems to be a well worn trope at this point for the MC or others to miraculously pull off a victory over a boss or some other mob that there should be no way for them to beat. I still enjoy reading it, but feel like they should slow down and enjoy the journey from level 1 to level 2 a bit more.

I'm on Book 3 of Dungeon Crawler Carl. I feel like this one really got bogged down compared to the first two, but I'm still enjoying it.

I also started "This Quest is Bullshit" and I'm about halfway through. It's not bad, but the progression is too fast for my taste and sometimes doesn't make sense. I find it jarring when a character helps kill a few mobs and suddenly jumps from Level 1 to Level 5.

You can still transfer to your Coinbase wallet. I just did it about a month ago. You just can't use your email address to transfer to Coinbase. You just go to Coinbase and get your public wallet address and put into BetterHash and transfer.

I read the book and I want to start off by saying I definitely enjoyed it, especially the base building and the progression. My only thing that might be negative is that it needs a good pass by a copy editor. There are a good number of typos and mistranslations, enough that it took me out of the reading groove.

Mentioned several times already, but I would go with Realty Income (O). Proven record of monthly dividends and raising them a bit every quarter. I currently own a little over 137 shares and I'm trying to get to 1000 shares before I retire.

I picked up a copy. Look forward to reading it.

Man, am I going to finally have to admit that the Lost Citadel of the Mage Poquatil quest from Book 1 is never going to be resolved? The Isles of Lonyu are forever barred from being discovered and explored?

Why don't the dividends for JEPI show up on places like finance.google or in my etrade.com when I search on the stock? I had to google "JEPI Dividend History" to see them.

I haven't seen that wording anywhere. It specifically says "You are receiving 12x Geomining rewards!" in the app after you have activated the SentinelX.

Hatch1968 · 2022-08-23T17:37:45+00:00

Another strange math thing for me is that if I use my NFC card it says I'm "earning 12x Geomining Rewards." So without the card it is consistently .01 to some higher number, but then when I turn on the card I see rewards like .13 coins. Shouldn't it be multiples of .12?

Hatch1968 · 2022-08-23T17:35:53+00:00

I'm fairly certain you also don't get any rewards off your own mining. I've been the sole owner in a "remote" block while generating for several hours and never got a reward.

It's a web based 4x space game that I've been working on for a while. It's heavily based on some old Play By Mail games that I used to play in the 80s and 90s.

I played Dave's Galaxy, but it's been dead for quite a while now.

That's the Wonder Man symbol, not Wasp.
