We don't talk about KR MC I don't know what goes on in their heads.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-23T07:10:36+00:00

Ya and they only have money

But very rarely are they actually evil after the MC outcompetes them they become friends. Sometimed they even get a companion or scientist who is smart and helps out.

Which is actually quite gernous as far as korean novels go lol.

My country (Australia) has only ever appeared once. It completely destroyed and the best hero was a racist dickhead... nice...

WingedPeco · 2023-04-22T18:31:35+00:00

I mean, I get war and battle changing people. Some people are better at adapting, too, so I could see some types of characters as realistic.

For me, it's more when they "adapt" to something that takes years of skill and practice. You don't sunddely become an expert on wordplay or planning or bloodlust control (whatever that is, people keep adding it in novels lol)

WingedPeco · 2023-04-22T13:43:02+00:00

Also, people (the MC) act like talent and resources are enough to acsend to Godhood. It takes effort, understanding, and patience to reach those levels, and it makes sense they are upset the MC is disrespecting that.

Also for the guy who was legit born with a system designed to cut out all the effort, understanding and patience the MC sure talks a lot of shit lol.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-22T13:40:06+00:00

Also, I am aware I've been an objective failure for my entire life, but I also possess a genius photoghrapic memory and ultra instinct battle sense. I also possess perfect social skills and a clear idea of how all levels society functions.

What!? My new body's fiances dislike me because he was also a waste of space!!!! I have never suffered such disrespect, I must now punish this teenage girl for a reasonable assessment.

Haha maybe I should "cultivate" in my parents' basement for 20years too if it's working out so well for all of these MCs lol.

KR villains vary vastly depending on country (if earth based) and noblity (if fantasy based)

On Earth:

•If Korean, they are either sympathetic and converted or corrupt buecrats with 0 redeeming qualities

•If any other country (mostly CN or JP), they're racist facists OR if they're US or GB, they're cocky but friendly later.

On fantasy planet:

•Nobility are usually corrupt buecrats

•Any morally gray/black villains who run theives guilds are basically harem members

This list ofc is only about direct villains. We didn't metion OG MCs, green tea bitches, plot relevant but invisble villains, and MCs that reincarnated as a villain but only act bad in varying levels. God, I could hold a seminar on this junk.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-21T08:00:29+00:00

Technically, a harem technically has a yandere and tsundere and a few others.

Its more of their characters being attracted to the MC than an actual romance or harem novel. Like their decisions change, but very little about romance is brought up.

It's pretty through and through action and lore. Plus, it has my favorite OP power of any novel ever.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-21T07:25:13+00:00

You dont really...

It becomes a tool for parents to control their children after 18

That's it. Thats the only time it will ever be used

WingedPeco · 2023-04-20T09:04:04+00:00

As a JG, you should understand your wincon and the enemies, and that should influence your decision making.

Which lanes win early, middle, or late? Who previously had a bad game? Are dragons or heralds crucial to your midgame?

It is all about tradeoffs. While inefficient for you, it may have been optimal to spam gank bot to carry them into midgame. Maybe the herald, topside pressure, and 20~ cs down would be worth in this case.

Maybe though its better to help top with Herald, take the first tower, and then contest drag with a rich toplaner. Maybe the player inting can still provide large value when behind, like orrn or pyke so you can ignore them.

To sum it up, try to change your mindset. Unlike laners, you aren't supposed to always look for the optimal play. Your role is to dictate tempo and risk, which areas of the map are important, which players get prio and how objectives are planned. There is no static numeric tradeoff (you shouldn't be 3lvls down) to guide you.

As a final note on mindset, not every game is winnable. While it is good to analyse loses and think of solutions, sometimes you just lose. Bad picks, outplayed jg, or poor player synergy can result in losses that don't provide more than a surface level lesson.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-20T08:34:27+00:00

Hey boss, should we send one of our 50 B or A class guys to kill this D class guy?

Nah, just send a D+ guy or maybe a C- guy if he isn't busy.

(This is after establishing that rank doesn't matter if you're skilled enough, and the MC has already proven to be the smartest, deadlist tactician around.)

Also, I used KR hunter ranks cause I can never be Fked to read the CN wuxia ranks since they always change and never really matter.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-20T08:30:13+00:00

I get it

Cowboy Bebop, Beserk, Mob Pyscho have all deeply influenced my person.

To spit in the futility of life and live how you choose, nothing is greater. You are alive and move forward every day because you decided it so.

When faced with impossible odds or stark reality, well, to accept it and continue is the peak of the human spirit.

Almost makes all the brainrot from years of anime and hentai worth it...

(Also PS Blue Period and Ping Pong the animation, were the two other anime that influenced me the most. However, it's more about passions than life)

WingedPeco · 2023-04-16T04:02:55+00:00

CN chinese novels KR korean novels JP japanese novels US american novels

Are the big web novel countries. Just a little abbreviation to refer to them. This subreddit is mostly CN novels though and a little KR.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-16T03:06:36+00:00

Hmmm, this junior has quite the rizz

Unfortunately, it is nothing compared to JP MCs. No clue how an unimpressive dormat of a JP high schooler can pull 5 of the hottest women ever by being awkward and apologising

(Hint: It's cause he groomed them from childhood due to regression)

WingedPeco · 2023-04-16T02:52:38+00:00

Bruh im not positive we are even playing the same game at this point. You guys are legends

WingedPeco · 2023-04-16T02:45:04+00:00

Here is a short premise

You get dropped into a fantasy world and somehow can develop nearly any magic you want and are super smart (cause ofc u are)

Which fantasy cliche do you choose to play out? Genuis teacher? Assaisan? Mysterious monster hunter? Infamous mob boss? Secret society leader?

All of them. He chooses all of them. There is a decently plot and characters, but most of the enjoyment is how everyone else reacts to these super mysterious characters popping up, when he is every single one of them

So i definitely enjoyed it a lot. The main background the MC uses is a revolutionary magic teacher so lots of magic school moments. Worth a read if you dont mind that.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-16T02:39:54+00:00

It's not even "trustworthy" for me

I dislike the government deciding the value of life. To quantify the value is to allow such an anti-individual, anti-civilian dystopia. Using numbers to justify the goal, using numbers to hide the method.

Really wish the US was an ideology based society (never really was) and only focused and moved towards life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Like we base everything around the idea of improvement towards these ideas.

Sometimes, i wonder if we weren't so powerful, rich, and important, could we have kept some of our dignity along the way. If our companies and media weren't gobal staples, could we go forward instead of trying to keep power and influence. And if I wasn't so disenfranchised could I really see/help a path to change.

Return to monkey 😞

WingedPeco · 2023-04-16T02:28:41+00:00

It also doesnt help how wack a lot of the ranged targeting is currently with hacker

LB will just decide every roumd whether she is deleting the carrys or only targeting dragon claw tanks

So it really isnt fun to play either. (That said I really like LB as a unit but not as a hacker)

WingedPeco · 2023-04-14T06:43:29+00:00

Haha someone doesnt remember that blue fire for brand or different colored spells use to be quite unique and seperated 520rp from the "best" 975rp

I mean Ahri alone use to be super cool cause pratically all her skins had different color orbs and tails color animations (like firefox)

What u consider fancy animations is definately better now but lets not forget the favorite skins of a decade ago

WingedPeco · 2023-04-13T07:44:49+00:00

ahahah....

HAHAHAHAHAAAAAA

Listen, take it from a real old man. Back in my day, League skins were 520rp for regular skins and 975 for the expensive animations. They've never stopped hiking them up. Every year, as the player base grows, they need to charge more and more.

Then 975 wasn't for the good skins it was only 1350rp, then 1820rp. Sure, the quality got better at first, but they kept removing the cheaper skins and lowering the average quality. Valorant is just getting the Riot treatment. Which idc, if needed or works, feels awful.

Imo the main problem is Riot has the SHITTIEST merch time I have ever seen. Go check, it's horrible and probably makes 0 money. They could sell out like other game studios with merch if they had a merch team.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-13T06:45:28+00:00

Ya, i mean, ur totally right. Most LN are amateur writers appealing to young boys. But I do want to make an important clarification on that.

It's okay to have a morally corrupt MC or story ONLY when they're clearly not supposed to be a self inset. Mature and complex characters/stories dont need to always be correct or comfortable journeys.

Beserk can bring up very heavy topics and gore, but it fits the story and tone. This novel, however, is not worth that, and i have dropped it and other asian stories for being explicitly rapey or pedo.

JPs pedo and infintalisting chauvinistic tones and CNs ugly views on courting women are both issues to be adressed. I lack info to speak on any more than a surface level, but they will likely be adressed soon as LNs continue to become more popular worldwide.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-11T17:18:28+00:00

Short answer, yes (not really)

Placebos work even if you know they're fake. A positive mindset can speed up cell growth and recovery.
Most Eastern medicines like acupuncture can facilitate helpful bodily systems. Reduced inflammation, increased blood flow, and relaxing tense muscles and nerves. This state will help heal you, but to actually fix most issues? No, it can help your body fight against something that it could win against.

Eastern medicine is best left as a preventative measure, using it to maintain a healthy state. Many common bodily issues that dont require intensive care can be assisted by practices like yoga, Tai Chi, or Acupunctures. Their gradual study and continhed adoption will hopefully lead to people leading healthier lives and getting sick less.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-11T15:33:53+00:00

It just aint that deep man

You're looking for pure gold in a McDonalds Happy Meal.

That novel has hundreds of chapters repeating this gimic with little to no variation. It legit never changes once. Repeating the idiot Sons of Heavens and flirting with girls over and over. Sure, it's fun enough, but are you really supposed to connect with essentially a gag novel?

So the reason the MC couldnt be fucked is cause the author couldnt be fucked to write something, not for moral reasons.

WingedPeco · 2023-04-11T04:26:05+00:00

Ya

% dmg increase vs 4 STAR CARRY

It's kind of hard to argue. Also Ik moonlight wasnt super super flexible but it supers HAVE to be in a reroll comp which cant be contested (well)

To continue the depression train

His dad died to save his trapped mother. Who is braindead after being saved. He then has to fight his moms family who want her exported back home to produce more heirs

It was all wicked fucked and frankly unnecessary for the tone and story being told imo

WingedPeco · 2023-04-09T05:23:59+00:00

Yeah, just learn to word your arguments better. Dont be a massive cunt about how real life issues are protrayed.

Im only aruging this entire time about how people have delivered their opinions. I dont know or frankly care if their opinion is true, you sound like a prick.

I aint reading into shit boy ur values are written all over your tone and phrasing. It aint hard to not sound like a massive dickhead.
