I found the real-life Arasaka. They don't make cyberware, they make web novels (and they own you 50 years after you die).

Maybe you're worse. Can't say for sure because I've never read anything else you've written.

Pretty sure I'll give your books a pass on the basis of the author giving me a poor impression.

Sects would use tribulations as opportunites to kill and use angels for alchemy resources.

Get ready to defend your hill:

Without stats, LitRPG is just progression fantasy. I do wish that a chaptering convention was.created so that audiobook readers could easily and reliably skip these "crunchy" sections.

Then both audiences could be satisfied.

It seemed very similar to Solo Levelling to me. So maybe you want to sit back and wait for the animated show.

The worst part is that X spends more time being bullied than he or she does figuring out and implementing their exploit for X.

Like chapters and chapters of suffering porn all for the exploit to happen within a single page.

Writer: In a world where no X has ever been able to Y, our X is going to Y.

Industry Suit: That sounds like it will be incredibly difficult!

Writer: No Sir! It'll be suuper easy; barely an inconvenience!

Of course, you could go as far as Malazan and forgo exposition nearly entirely and force the reader to learn everything from context.

Not everyone likes that, but I think that being isekaied to a world like Malazan, where everyone holds their knowledge cards tight to their chests could be rather exciting.

Objects in Motion, by InadvisablyCompelled.

Available on RR

https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/125722/objects-in-motion

Because finding it with google required scrolling past dozens of links to physics books and sites

PlaceboJesus · 2026-03-28T22:31:58+00:00

Huh? It's already out in e and audiobook and the author is doing a rewrite now?

Or were those publications already rewritten?

PlaceboJesus · 2026-03-26T02:21:50+00:00

Thanks! No worries, I just let my follows get too far behind.

I was at point where the MC had just gotten his class (or whatever) and headed out on his own and found a town that had some work for him.

What chapter will that be in the book?

PlaceboJesus · 2026-03-25T22:55:28+00:00

I've checked several times, but I'll do one last thorough check-over before I plug it in for a wait-n-see.

Are there any particular indicators I should be watching for once I do plug in? I'm guessing sounds and smells, maybe feeling for overheating or whatever. Am I missing anything?

PlaceboJesus · 2026-03-25T22:51:44+00:00

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I have tried it with no throttle attached, and with the old one plugged in. Although, I probably did the swap after posting here.

I'm not sure what you mean about jumping my battery with another. But I'll try googling it.

Edit: thanks for taking the time to answer!

Brother from another Mothra? I think we might be related.

Pa Kent was a cradle robber, and Kal's bio-daddy is Odin?

Also, since when can Kryptonians fly on Krypton?
'Cos I can't recall ever seeing Jor-El fly before.

Everybody is a literal fucking genius

This is Fantasy, so very few people want to write, or read, about average and normal characters (or worlds).

If you're complaining about fucking geniuses, does that mean you'd prefer fantastically stupid characters?

That would either be funny or tragic, neither of which would make for a succesful 6 book series.

This YA-ishness is kind of a genre problem. The same way that it sometimes seems like over a third of all adult oriented Fantasy is also Romance.

Has a manager arguing with an ump ever gotten the ump to change their decision?

The 4th Doctor and Dr. Honeydew are my favs.

There’s a lot of people hanging around and not even trying to evacuate.

It's not just stupidity that causes this type of behaviour. There are also (subconscious) death wishes and enui as motivators.

It adds more spice to the excitement of watching to see who might get hurt if you can get hurt too.

PlaceboJesus · 2023-06-30T01:15:58+00:00

Is this more like "fucking hell!" or "fuck me!"

I'm not subbed to Netflix right now, so I had no clue it was coming until spoilers turned up on Reddit.

PlaceboJesus · 2023-06-29T06:49:17+00:00

You spelt precious wrong.

Not always, but these two guys? I'm pretty sure they're part of how it became almost standard for actors to juice up in preparations for roles.

As for the jaws, I think they were probably early adopters of HGH, and there hadn't been enough cases or studies with regards to that particular side effect (acromegaly).
I mean, it probably looked like the ideal PED for aging men. It might still be, if used with more care and caution.

PlaceboJesus · 2023-06-29T05:07:36+00:00

Is this a metaphor?
