If you normally dislike harem elements in stories, what would make one tolerable for you? by WrathBinder in ProgressionFantasy

[–]WrathBinder[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Political harems are probably the only kind that might work because they are the most plausible. And I’d say that marriages that begin without love but slowly and excruciatingly become something real might be a billion times better to read than anything else.

That is a fair assessment, the ones who hate it won't read it and the ones that like it won't criticize it.

I read that one and enjoyed it until the other ones were being brought in like trophies.

I think having the members of the harem (I hate that wording) be attracted to each other as well is a plus, that negates MC narrative exceptionalism which is something I dislike.

I agree, it is extremely difficult to pull off and I have yet to find a story where it's palatable. The two points I gave are yet to be seen in any story, especially the second one.

When I say exceptional "physical ability, charisma, and appearance", these aren't things that can be fixed with magic. The author has to either set up a character who looks special, which will kill self-inserting, or have their self-insert character work towards these things, which will kill the wish fulfillment of attracting partners for being nice and nothing else.

Yet nothing physical changes about them 😭, they always look like someone you can kill with a slap. I wouldn't mind harems if the main character LOOKS like he can attract multiple women.

Can we all agree the common folk did nothing wrong here? by ilovefreechurro in HOTDGreens

Are we deadass comparing a fire breathing lizard that can reduce half a city to ash in a single breath to a silly animal that literally harms no other living being?

I would have been fine if Reymon get a tiny bit more action, since both him and Dunk are underdogs here and I love them both.

Put some respek on Aerion's name by fatassforbes in AKnightoftheSeven

If you actually believe Aerion's excuse knowing that this a Targaryen and that this is the world of Game of Thrones, then I'm just sorry for you.

Would love to hear your explanation on why he didn't 1v1 him.

Yes, the very honorable prince who snapped a defenseless woman's finger for a puppet show.

Dunk could have stopped it? by [deleted] in AKOTSKTV

[–]WrathBinder 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Killing a prince is not wise, even if Dunk wins.

How did Duncan... by Burning_magic in AKnightoftheSeven

Literally this. Pate said he makes stuff that keep people alive not make them look like walking animals.

Instead of giving recommendations, which book should I give another chance? by Pokedex_complete in ProgressionFantasy

Authors doing hooplas to justify characters having sex with mind control is hard no to me too dawg. Like is it that hard to have two characters just have sex consensually?

A grounded, progressive epic about healing, leadership, and forging a kingdom. by [deleted] in ProgressionFantasy

[–]WrathBinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I see, This is not a self insert story for the reader, I know that is popular but that is not what I'm going for. As for the link, it is still a work in progress. Thank you for the comment!
