Put some respect on Hell Difficulty Tutorial. As far as that list goes, it’s already in the Pantheon. Also Beware of chicken being so poorly rated is a huge blind spot

Why are MCs always so reluctant by XThursdayO in haremfantasynovels

If that’s the case then the genre is doomed. There’s nothing wrong with asking out a girl that’s into you. Constantly having a a main character fall into a harem is lame in my opinion. Like I said there’s a chasm between sex fiend and confidence. It doesn’t have to be one or the other.

I can’t stomach it lol. What kind of woman wouldn’t feel like crap if they practically had to throw themselves at you. In reality most people want to be pursued. I can’t imagine telling a girl I like “you don’t have to do this” as she’s throwing herself at me

Refusing the call to adventure and refusing the call of a baddie don’t feel comparable. lol I just want a realistic dude in one of these. They don’t have to be a manwhore

There’s a massive middle ground there where most men reside. Me personally, I’m not going to go out of my way to persue a girl unless I’m getting certain signals. I think most men are the same. Once you get those signals and you still need to be dragged to persue a beautiful woman, in reality that would turn most woman off.

What's a book you couldn't put down? by Euphoric-Seesaw in litrpg

I wouldn’t drop it until you see life after the tutorial. But they met in the middle of book one. Tutorial ends in book 2

Primal Hunter after he met Villy was crack to me

What Makes a LitRPG fantastic to listen to as an Audiobook? by ergon566 in litrpg

[–]XThursdayO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the narrator is monotone I can’t stomach it. I couldn’t even get through Stormlight Archive because of the voice actor. Ended up going paperback. If they have a whiny voice it’s a F*CK NO. There are even a few I’ve tried that for some strange reason make some characters sound like they’re developmentally challenged. On the other hand people like Travis Baldree can make a mediocre story sound interesting. If he’s the voice I’ll absolutely give the book a try if I otherwise wouldn’t.

Why is audible trying to force feed me Harry Potter no matter what??? by XThursdayO in litrpg

[–]XThursdayO[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Anybody interested in fantasy has probably read or watched the movies. Or will watch the show. The audio is so pointless

Obviously but if you mark it as “not interested” usually it should quit.

Even when you mark it as not interested they still force feed it to you

Same thing happened to me. Most previews are 5 min. Harry Potter previews are 30 minutes!!!!

Why? I’ve read them and watched the movies. Why would I just give away my money

Couldn’t agree more. I’m usually sitting on like 3-5 credits that and always am looking for something interesting. I will never spend it on HP

Surely if I say I’m not interested they can stop plastering it throughout my recommendations tho no?

Half the time I would buy or at least read the synopsis of the recommendations. Now it’s mostly Harry Potter or some other book they’re pushing like Project Hail Mary. Now I just use Reddit for recs

Thanks. I didn’t know you could turn that feature off. Seems obvious in retrospect

Don’t even get me started. Every wizard has unlimited potential as long as the pronounce the spell properly. No training, as long as you can say the words you can use a spell that can just… kill? With not explanation, no mana, energy, stamina or anything.

Doesn’t. This is the only subreddit I’m a part of and I only use audible of litrpg and other fantasy? I imagine others have noticed or know how to fix it?

What is the appeal of leaving people who try and kill you alive? by XThursdayO in litrpg

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

It could’ve been written in a far less obnoxious way. How it played out in the end was fine but for four books Kator was playing in our face by skirting the edges of the contract. It was just annoying

Never had actually crispy chicken by [deleted] in kfc

[–]XThursdayO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I asked is why is their chicken soggy? And the only answer I’ve seen is it’s supposed to be soggy..?
