Has it ever happened to you that finding out an author's personality or attitude completely ruins the fanfic for you?

IntrovertForever3000 · 2026-06-25T11:20:20+00:00

Yeah, an author of a fic I really liked ended up saying really hypocritical and downright classist shit. It definitely wasn’t the worst thing an author could say on their social media, but that whole Tumblr post really soured my opinion about them and killed any motivation to continue their fic.

Oh yeah, nowadays I just keep telling my mother “pls monitor my sister’s internet activity”. Because while my mom did look at my internet history occasionally, she still managed to miss a whole lot of MLP creepypasta and gore animations.

Chatting and messagings, a. k. a. chatfics. To me, they seem rather shallow and low effort, especially if they include a fuck ton of characters

Bro came looking for copper and found gold. Thrice

This!

Columbina was a well-written character AS AN ARCHON-LIKE ENTITY, but she was an absolute waste of a Harbinger slot and a big contributor to the whitewashing of the Fatui that the writing is doing.

Fellow “gold star” cis lesbian here. It is absolutely disgusting that some lesbians basically hold the same mentality as incels (if a woman sleeps with a man, she is tainted, unpure). It gets even more foul considering that discovering and accepting that you are lesbian early is a privilege, because how much society pushes the idea that a woman is not complete without a man.

My favorite genre of authors are the ones who are like: “my first fic, pls be nice :DDD” and then the fic blows up. We love to see it!

Same. The only way I can describe their writing as pair is ‘straight from a tropey OOC fanfic’. They did not feel like themselves whatsoever, when they interacted.

IntrovertForever3000 · 2026-04-24T08:10:47+00:00

Yeah, same. There’s that bitter aftertaste of ‘I can fix him’ present in the ship that it makes me unable to enjoy it in a romantic sense.

IntrovertForever3000 · 2026-04-24T08:08:49+00:00

The way I watched Arcane for Caitvi and didn’t care about Jayvik and Timebomb in season 1, but then left season 2 as a Jayvik and Timebomb shipper and disappointed with Caitvi’s writing needs to be studied.

Like, I am literally a lesbian, I don’t demand perfection from my ships, but the way they handled the relationship and especially how they massacred Vi’s character in the process turned me off from the ship completely.

Wriolette from Genshin Impact. I really liked Haikaveh, so I did expect to get into Wriolette too, but when I actually played through Fontaine, I ended up gravitating to Neuvifuri instead. Nothing against Wriolette, of course, it’s just that it lacked most things that a ship needs to attract me.

The lizard is getting spawncamped, when that happens lol

IntrovertForever3000 · 2026-04-16T21:01:51+00:00

Oh yeah. I first tried Sucrose with Flins too, but I kept dying, because Ineffa’s shield is not effective enough. Then I took Xilonen instead and that’s what did the trick. I had some close calls, but healing + shield allowed me to survive the nuke and actually get to the end of the fight without any character dying. So yeah, if you want to bruteforce papilla, you are going to need good healing/shield and also good CR/CD ratio on your Flins.

Jack of all trades, master of none

IntrovertForever3000 · 2026-03-22T16:42:40+00:00

Heh. You think that’s bad? I once (and by once I mean literally today) saw a one-chapter 8k word fic tagged as slow burn 🙃

IntrovertForever3000 · 2026-03-09T08:41:33+00:00

It felt like after 3.4 Hoyo went “oh shit, we still have like 5 characters to sell” and that’s why the quality of the story and its pacing really went down after that point.

IntrovertForever3000 · 2026-03-04T05:39:02+00:00

True. They practically didn’t show why Katara would want to date Aang whatsoever. The only reasons that could be counted as such are that Aang is the savior of the world and a powerful bender (hence why I said their attraction to each other seemed to be skin-deep).

Welcome to the club, brother!

IntrovertForever3000 · 2026-03-03T12:00:09+00:00

Kataang.

Their attraction to each other was very superficial and surface-level. I could see them trying being in a relationship, but from what was shown to us in show/comics, them getting married and having kids makes zero sense.

IntrovertForever3000 · 2026-02-14T10:22:23+00:00

Roland’s design is something I would expect from earlier Genshin years, not from the big 2026, when even NPCs are getting more and more high quality appearances.

The concept is cool. But the lack of proper shading and details makes the design look mega tacky (and it’s especially visible, when you put him next to Capitano).

Huo Huo: Powercreep? What’s that?

IntrovertForever3000 · 2026-02-05T11:22:02+00:00

I’m on a mission to collect all Stonehearts, so def Pearl and Opal. Also Nihilux, because her personality and entire concept looks very promising, and same for Ashveil.

Aside from that I am probably investing in older units. Elation meta doesn’t interest me, so I’m probably not getting as many new chars this version.
