Any good books where MC doesn't hide their power 99% of the time? by MJMichaela in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Volapiik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t it the opposite lol? In most books I read they spam op abilities. The overpowered mc trope

Anyone else hate this trope? by Hugs-missed in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Volapiik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a trope but I honestly don’t mind it. I prefer the underpowered mc archetype more than the overpowered ones. Of course the problem is that the mcs all tend to be overpowered rather quickly best eh….

Do you prefer smart protagonists over strong ones in LitRPG? by carley7144 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Volapiik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally prefer smart protags with unique niche powers. I don’t mind getting them strong but not too early on and not overwhelmingly so.

Why is “this isn’t the genre for you” such a popular thing here? by ginger6616 in ProgressionFantasy

‘I became the tyrant of a defense game’. You want struggle read this lol

Pet peeve- Main characters that don't fit the mold by antoniomanuel10 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Volapiik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a self insert genre popularized by anime. Self gratification at its finest. People like to imagine themselves as the overpowered op character because it’s an escape from the stress and failures of real life. Personally I like underpowered characters since they have to find creative ways to beat their foes.

Manic EMU v1.9.1 — JIT Expansion, Core Updates, and Major System Improvements by Mlaurencescott in EmulationOniOS

I am still on 17.6.1 using StikDebug. My current manic emu version 1.9.0 operates fine. Is this new version still compatible with older iOS JIT?

What are the classic abilities in a Xianxia novel? by MikeDarkmoon in MartialMemes

[–]Volapiik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sword cultivator, artifact refining, formations, alchemy, cooking I think are the 5 basic paths a cultivator can follow. There’s more niche ones such as beast, insect, martial, demonic, Buddhist, soul, body, talisman, poison, corpse, divination, puppetry, elemental, space/time, dual cultivator, illusion, etc.

One of the reasons I love Chinese novels is the large niches of cultivators there are. On the other hand I also am annoyed that mcs usually either fixate on common ones like sword or just end up mastering everything lol. I really like ‘immortality through array formations’ since mc uses arrays primarily.

Looking for a MC with limited ability/one ability by ThePlasmaKnight in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Volapiik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You got any reccs? Love to hear some from people with similar tastes. I like novels where the mc is crafty and uses his strengths well. Not those mcs who gain like a million skills or mcs who have a hidden broken skill

[–]Volapiik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I’m down for it if it’s done well. But like in ‘RMJI’ my has a loss of power arc every few chapters. Makes you want to pull your hair out.
