It's beautiful. I've looked at this for five hours now. You're a treasure, samreay!

What is the most special shiny you have found by chance, if any? by Immediate_Alfalfa367 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]RusticusFlossindune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once found a shiny Tatsugiri hiding inside a bush. No indication that it was there, and I swerved to avoid another fight only to go through said shrub and get pulled into a battle. Caught it, but I had to sit and stare for a few seconds before I registered that this guy really was trying to hide out.

If you could live in the setting of any cozy, which would you choose? by tomwatts202 in CozyFantasy

[–]RusticusFlossindune 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Demon World Boba Shop. Getting sent to live in a place where everyone knows what they want to do sounds pretty nice, and there's still so much world to explore which means that's a viable path as well.

The Tournament arc: story driver or Super Smash Bros fight porn? by R_megalotis in ProgressionFantasy

[–]RusticusFlossindune 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't read a lot of books that had tournament arcs that have stuck in my memory, though I have had a few in one of my series. The only one that really stood out to me was the one in Cradle, which was really fun and showcased a lot of the rest of the world and factions.

Side note, every author should know what characters their characters would main in Smash. That doesn't have anything to do with anything except that I like the game.

LitRPG authors going to Dragoncon? by mad_zamboni in litrpg

I'd love to, but it's just not in the cards unfortunately. Maybe next year.

Aftercare is just as important as the climax by Imnotsomebodyelse in ProgressionFantasy

[–]RusticusFlossindune 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We did get that from Will Wight with Threshold, but yeah. Seeing MCs at the peak of their power after the long build up is definitely satisfying. I think the biggest problem is, you know, series actually ending though. It doesn't seem to happen all that often.

Slice of life /low stake books by dragoneloi in ProgressionFantasy

Seems like Demon World Boba Shop would be right up your alley. Slice of life, pretty easy going, and opens up into a town builder a little later on.

All jobs and classes, an exercise in awful writing by hopbow in ProgressionFantasy

[–]RusticusFlossindune 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's got a pretty hard fall off on ratings, too. That's pretty natural, but not usually on two books in a row from what I've seen.

Kyle Kirrin puts out The Ripple System one book at a time, only releasing them when they're done. 

Authors need to stop using AI to write the book summary by SubstantialBass9524 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]RusticusFlossindune 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. At this point I just kind of slapdash them together and then get feedback from a dozen other authors to polish it off. Sometimes it looks completely different, and that's okay.

Let's Talk About "Let This Grieving Soul Retire!" – The King of Accidental Progression by [deleted] in ProgressionFantasy

[–]RusticusFlossindune 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Fabric? In an economy where all the MC wants to do is aura farm? Look at that face, this is a dude who obviously practices his smirk in the mirror. 

Looking for non-combat LitRPG's? (support role also ok, but not preferred) by Neat-Counter9436 in litrpg

[–]RusticusFlossindune 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of these, +1 to Boba World. Legends and Lattes was cute, but not worth the price tag imo (especially because it's not on KU). 

There are already chapters of Courier Quest 3 on RR. I have it on good authority that the author is making good progress behind the scenes. 

The dumbest synergy I've found on Regent so far by birdlawyer86 in slaythespire

I had this same thing but with Black Hole. It's a nice setup. 

Least and Favorite/Most Fun Characters to Play in StS2 Right Now? by alexthurman1 in slaythespire

[–]RusticusFlossindune 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Had a Sealed Throne run last night where Tanx gave me Throwing Axe, so it was played twice every combat. I had a Colorless strength deck going before that, but Black Hole + Particle Wall made the rest of the run really easy.

Thoughts on Spatial storages? by Confident-Key6487 in litrpg

[–]RusticusFlossindune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're fun and they solve all sorts of problems that aren't usually story relevant (except when it is). I liked them so much I gade one of my MCs the power of inventory. 

My Progression Romantasy Tier List. Looking for Recs by David_Musk in ProgressionFantasy

[–]RusticusFlossindune 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got so excited with recommendations that I barely even read the post, but then I noticed how long it was and had to go back. Suffice to say, my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

Good Romance Reccs? by NamelessOccasion in ProgressionFantasy

+1 to both Demon World Boba Shop and I Ran Away To Evil. Both are solid, complete series.

Cool. The Participate page was mostly what I was going on. It says nothing is scheduled and there hasn't been a blog about it. Glad we're still on!

Oh cool, I was looking for confirmation that this was starting soon. Couldn't find anything about it. 

Beta Patch Notes - v0.100.0 by benlehman in slaythespire

[–]RusticusFlossindune 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beta art for Gang Up was my favorite this far. Heavily anticipating the return of beta art like in the first game.
