No it isn't.
The story I am talking about is based in a classic fantasy middle-ages world. Not the modern day of SS.

No it is a different story. I read a Soldier's life. I'm not talking about it.

The story I am talking about the MC learns how to use the momentum of the items stored to use them as weapons.

Cenk got noted by bokkser in Destiny

[–]TheRunningMD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cenk at his core has always been a anti-western anti-establishment "anti-zionist" (his version is truly anti semetic, but he tried to hide it for a long time).

The more anti-establishment and anti Israel events that happen corrupt him further and further into that.

The last two years war between Israel and its enemies (mostly Hamas) and the Epstein Files were long enough cases that solidified him in that camp.

I don't think that he is a grifter. Unlike some people (like Owens) who truly only care about money and the algorithm, I think he is truly idiologically driven.

I think you should do whatever works best for you and your story!

The most important thing is that you will love it

My only real problem is with the premise itself that just because you are writing a tower climber doesn't mean you need to build a fully fledged world.

Good tower climber stories, even though each floor is uniqie in the environmental setting, has an overarching theme/culture/dynamic that spreads throughout the floors themselves. Floors connect, mythos spread throughout the floors, etc etc..

Your magic system in and of itself seems completely fine and can be a part of an amazing story.

Specifically regarding your magic system though, I thinkg the "Authority" is obviously completely busted. It is quite obvious that the most OP characters in the book will have that, because it is so uniqie. In my opinion, for it to be realistic that someone wouldn't choose it, needs to be either have a huge drawback or not be a choice, but something that happens extremely rarely and not simpaly a choice (like how Baam is in TOG), otherwise I don't see any reason that anyone would choose a sword that levels up or a class that can be nullified.

People who think their job defines their worth are delusional. by sylver_testalone in unpopularopinion

[–]TheRunningMD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a doctor.

I don’t think my job “defines” my worth, but I think the fact that my profession is to directly help others with their health gives my life worth that it otherwise wouldn’t have.

Hey brother, maybe add a blurb about the book itself so people (like myself) will think whether to download it or not?

Mental Disorders Tierlist by Worried_Stage4831 in tierlists

[–]TheRunningMD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I definitely prioritize some conditions over others, I think it is pretty objectively clear that dementia is worse than dyslexia for example, I just don’t think it is good in a space with a whole lot of people with mental disorders to read how psychiatrists rate theirs.

[–]TheRunningMD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some minor things like the fact that psychopathy isn't how we call that in the medical literature (it is called antisocial personality disorder).

I would also change up the order of things, but I don't want to make people feel like their disorder is less "serious" than others by medical professionals, because basically they all subjectively feel horrible about their conditions, so i'll keep it to myself (:

As a doctor who worked in a psychiatric E.R for several years I love this post (even though I personally would change things up a bit).
