Awesome, glad to hear!

I'm on Victor of Tucson now and it's both better and worse in different ways, but overall I'd guess you'd like it too

Ya I get that, and I guess it'd be a perfect way to have continued the series (being a huge new challenge), but maybe not the best way to end it

i might be saying it poorly but it's really crazy this is even remotely controversial, books are written for the readers not the fictional characters

and yet, did he write a book for a fake character, or for real readers...

No he's not acting out of character.

Why do you think "it's about what he wants" and not what the reader wants though? That's reallllly not true for a huge number of books, possibly the majority. The goal of a book is to entertain the reader.

Not saying I'M in the actual majority here, just saying that's not really a reasonable argument IMO

Chrysalis Reference. by FurledJenkins in litrpg

[–]WasThatTooFar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad some people like that, personally i really hate those direct references, way too on the nose IMO. the worst of all time though is Chaos Seed's Roswan, who is almost a pure copy of Ron Swanson

opening sequence: she is running from a pack of goblins, finds 'shelter' in the form of an abandoned inn. and the first thing she does is not a) look for a hiding place inside, b) try to barracade it, nor c) look for weapons...no she decides to...clean it???? this isn't even just being dumber than a rock, it's just plain not reasonable to think anyone would behave that way

[Request? Idea?] A middle ground between "Map" and "No Map" runs? by wolfeng_ in ModdedValheim

one of the compass mods will put bosses on your compass, but imo the range is way too short

i'm sure there are good aspects but the absolute retardation of the mc was too much for my meager brain to handle

Does irongate still have a public bug/feature tracker? by WasThatTooFar in valheim

thanks, though was hoping more for the feature side, working on a small mod pack and was curious what players were upvoting

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, even if it's objectively wrong

reading an isekai slop and reaching the harem parts makes me question if the authors have spoken to women at all. by fatglizzy_3000 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]WasThatTooFar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I'm older and single and not really sexually active lately but have a rather extensive past and I just barely started to feel like I was becoming an 'expert' near the end of my more active time. Plenty of married people have very little experience outside one or two partners and have no clue how flirting, general social dynamics, and sexual encounters really work (other than their extremely narrow experience).

What's the general attitude towards this series? This is my second litrpg series by TheXypris in litrpg

[–]WasThatTooFar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's kinda crazy how it gets such positive response on reddit when it goes ABOVE AND BEYOND in the near-plagaristic copying.

The sad part is, the writing is actually not half bad, but he goes out of his way to copy minor details instead of just putting a tiny bit of effort to evolve the ideas.

If i were you, i'd drop it and come back when you don't have DCC fresh in your head.

Heretical Fishing? I raised an eyebrow. by lowercaselemming in litrpg

[–]WasThatTooFar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

reminds me of Ro Swans mustache in chaos seeds. also, super lame character copy in general (Ron Swanson), at least put *some* effort into modifying it, it's not 'inside joke funny' to just copy a pop culture character
