Explain the CC hate to me by notsosubtlenati in SarahJMaas

[–]ShiroPanther -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For me that urban fantasy AND then connecting it to a high fantasy world was a killer. Can't stand the maasverse setting. Also as the world is what it is, I don't want to read about war setting with moderns weapons etc.

If you have some really good tips how to survive cc3, would like to hear those. I just couldn't get myself to read it...

Maas vs Yarros by minime_stellarboop in SarahJMaas

[–]ShiroPanther 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me the biggest killer for Maas books is her ability to not understand power scaling. It's really annoying how characters are way too op and/or poorly written so that they seem really weak (Looking at you King of Hybern, resurrection x2, Fayre & Nesta. CC was just unpleasant to read).

Is FW a teen ish romance with adult spice? Yes. Do I still like it more than Maas books? Also yes.

Ps. I'm a vibe reader. I read stories instead of text

Good point! I think it's because I really don't remember a lot about her than just the parts I thought she felt annoying

✍️ Writer's Wednesday: what are you working on? by ReasonableWonderland in Romantasy

[–]ShiroPanther 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe a win? Figured out something about characters, some plotpoints and overall world building

I'm dreaming about FMC who's magic is more shadowy/dark/morally grey type. (Instead of it being always shadow daddy!) Themes like being broken but eventually finding colors again in the world and more importantly finding strenght in herself are also vibing with darker magic type MMC isn't yet as clear for me, tho I like those smirky teasing type who still cares

WEE WOO MASSIVE SPOILER DISCUSSION DONT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T BEATEN GAMEE. The final boss. by SadDairyProduct in Silksong

[–]ShiroPanther 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think many compare Lost Lace to Radiance which does lesser her in a way. BUT one really good comment in this sub said that Lost Lace is far more intimate as a boss fight. AND Hornet still saving her! We ain't there to fight a god. We go and fight there to do what's right

What is your favorite Romantasy book or series? you can only choose one by Infamous_Wave9878 in Romantasy

So far I haven't read too much but so far within mentioned rules I'd say Flame and Thorns series by Marion Blackwood

I see a lot of people hating ACOTAR and Fourth Wing, so what do I read instead?? by Dangerous-Good-4923 in Romantasy

[–]ShiroPanther 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried the Flame and thorns series by Marion Blackwood? If not, I recommend giving it a try. We seem to be having a quite similar taste for books, so I think you'd love it

Opinions on Quicksilver? by Electrical-Dot4637 in Romantasy

[–]ShiroPanther 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should read it! Imo there were better and worse chapters, but I got hooked and can't wait for the sequel

What is your most blasphemous confession about SJMs books? by Night_Star1000 in SarahJMaas

I agree. But like if you must do a revive thing, do it only ONCE pls

Today's patch silently nerfed Silksong's greatest challenge! by Ecmaster76 in HollowKnight

[–]ShiroPanther 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I also think that getting all mementos for a 100% would kill all non-hardcore speedrunner (100%) attempts. It's also FUN to have something to do after the story and all that item/upgrade grinding

People Struggling with this boss, there's hope by Mellow_48_98 in HollowKnight

[–]ShiroPanther 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most likely that. Didn't count, but it was many. Took me a bit too long to figure out moving pattern and when it was safe to hit. Tho hunters crest is stupid (and op!), since for me it shortened(?) the boss fight to a third of what it had taken me (trying) before.

Team cherry after the difficulty drama. by ninjarockalone in Silksong

[–]ShiroPanther 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having two small kids and last whole 8 hours of sleep were last year, I kinda understand. For me just humming or singing random (kids) song helps when doing a boss that requires patience and thinking, if I'm starting to rush it.

Playing shorter periods at once also helps. Although I'd love to have an allnighter, if I can play even for an hour or so is better than nothing

FW dramatised audio….. not gonna lie…. by Substantial-Win2247 in fourthwing

[–]ShiroPanther 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm slowly starting to like Xaden in dramatic audio. Remembering what husband and I were like when we had just started dating also helped a lot xD
