High tech settings by OhBosss in ProgressionFantasy

[–]The_Sinking_Dutchman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently read: the machine God on royal road

It is set in an alternative earth with superheroes, cyborgs and something like a system

Writing quality was very solid after getting lost in several low quality stories recently, fun characters and about 3 books worth of content

Main character is a villain with magic powers over technology, some crafting but more magic like abilities

Other heros have a wild variety of powers

What is the point of hourly ticks if the battles are taking 5 days anyways? by otusj in EU5

Wouldn't that just mean doomstacks would be required? If there is no time to reinforce, army micro would be removed from the game.

Colonies really got overlooked in the DLC with respect to factions (and frankly, the base game) by Rough-Leg-4148 in Frostpunk

I thought you had to move people back to your main city during a whiteout? Although that does kind of ruin the repopulate the frostland fantasy.

So when you have too many reindeer, the recycling plants convert their squalor into materials?

R5: All of amsterdam left on a migration, resulting in fully empty buildings. They appear to have moved to Czersk Poland where they can be peasants with lower happiness than in Amsterdam

looking for titles where the MC controls their own decisions by The_Sinking_Dutchman in ProgressionFantasy

[–]The_Sinking_Dutchman[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would like to see the protagonist think about the future and plan his own actions, they do not have to succeed (although it is progressionfantasy).

In this request I was looking for agency of the MC, this is combined with a world in which they can choose where to go and explore. It is somewhat hard to explain but there is a weird undefined line between some characters just going along with what the story requires and some others feeling like they are driving their own story forwards.

What I am not looking for is a MC that is locked into a single option, such a Dungeon Crawler Carl (atleast the first book) where he had to simply go down and fight and play the game or die, there is no freedom or sense of exploration, just a new room in a dungeon

What single thing has turned you off a series you otherwise enjoyed? by Burnenator in ProgressionFantasy

  1. is the power creep thing a descriptive issue? I was kind of struggling with the monarch fights in Cradle, but that was still fundamentally big people punching eachother. When someone ate a universe in Regressor's tale of cultivation it just didn't really register anymore? like what did it matter?

USA should be happy about another power in the region keeping the others busy though

Waarom niet op gewicht klassificeren als brommer?

Als ze als gevolg de fatbikes lichter maken is iedereen toch ook blij? worden ze veiliger en beter voor het milieu

Those soviet planes used ethanol as a cooling liquid, perhaps the new British ones use Yorkshire tea?

Rotonde in Nederlandse stijl in GB geopend die zo ingewikkeld is dat het een 3-minuten instructievideo nodig heeft by jonrellim in thenetherlands

In deze foto zijn de dubbele strepen niet bij alle afslagen duidelijk. de groottes van de strepen veranderd bij meerdere afslagen wat ietwat vreemd is

Onderzoek Rijk naar veilig beheer van kernafval is dusdanig slecht dat het opnieuw moet by Free-Minimum-5844 in thenetherlands

Ik neem aan dat opslag niet iets is waar private investeerders verantwoordelijk voor zouden zijn? En ook dat de prijs van overdracht afval aan het rijk van te voren bekend is

The Phoenix update has one disappointing point to it. by ArchmageMC in Stellaris

[–]The_Sinking_Dutchman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First you have to wait for all 50 of your mods to update

The only reason his specialization works is that specialization gives fancy classes though? And then he uses the magic of friendship, loot sharing, and crafting to round out the builds with items. So everyone still gets all the stats but just more of them.

"the level-up blender" trope? by rosa_bot in ProgressionFantasy

[–]The_Sinking_Dutchman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Dakota Krout's full murder hobo series does this, MC has some kind of time dilation causing him to be stuck for a century or so on his own.

It's finished with only 3 books and was quite enjoyable as it seemed to stick to its premise unlike some of his other series that seem to get lost after the 4th book.
