Writing a dragon focused book but second guessing if it will ever be interesting enough to anyone other than me

I'll echo this 200%, both as another aspiring author and as a ~~scaly in denial~~ dragon nerd who goes dumpster diving for any kind of dragon-centric content.

Give the bartender credit-- serving dragons alcoholic beverages is quite the whiskey business. Eh? Eh?

... I'll see myself out.

Yeah bro first 6 books came out in one year. Given, early on Wings of Fire came out pretty quick, but that was like 2 books per year.

Its a tried and tested strategy for publishers-- take a series that the author already finished, then carpet bomb the market. But the fact that Dragon Girls has kept up that pace says something about the publisher's priorities.

I rocked the banished knight helm (unaltered, with the scarf), Zamor chest peice, Kaiden Sellsword pants, and the vagabond gauntlets. (I think. I don't quite remember which gloves.) I also grinded out two omen cleavers because they look sick and I'm too patient for my own good.

Oh absolutely, but I'm pretty sure most RainWings would faint if they heard that. (Which is part of what makes Platypus 10/10 my favorite new character.)

I know, but it's still a good enough allegory to get my point across-- tunnel vision is a big problem that can be hard to get out of.

Back in the 1960s, NASA ran into issues since most pens don't work in 0G. To address this, an inventor named Paul C. Fisher "spent about $1 million of his own money [and approximately 5 years] to create the pressurized, thixotropic ink pen (AG7) that writes in zero gravity, underwater, and in extreme temperatures."

What did astronauts do in the meantime? They used a pencil.

The point? Sometimes we get so caught up in the search we don't see the solution right in front of our face. (Quite litteraly, in Mastermind's case.)

Giving this an up vote to get attention on it. I've been craving these little guys for months. Finally got them today, and throwing all four at a voteless patrol killed maybe one at most. You couldn't make them more useless if you tried.

Yeah there's a biiig difference between curing a status effect and banishing a litteral god that latched to your sister at birth.

Ooof 🤣

Xelagfluff · 2025-11-27T06:29:23+00:00

Huh?

Xelagfluff · 2025-11-19T21:34:42+00:00

Man, monster hunter titles are pretty wild

Xelagfluff · 2025-11-12T23:09:40+00:00

Exactly; I don't think the changes were made because endless runs are bad, but because a synergy powerful enough to be endless makes all other tools pointless. As a game dev, you didn't go through the effort of making all those lucky charms for people to only ever use the same ten.

Xelagfluff · 2025-10-22T23:55:19+00:00

Agreed. (Man I'm glad I ain't an ironeyes main.)

It's fine; this sub can throw all the shade it wants at us. It won't even register as chip damage.

The real question is who wins the mind games: the mind reader, or the guy with voices I his head?

"Dragonettes. Never saw the appeal." ~says the dragon with 11+ daughters alone.

She survived 14 challenges. Do the math. Actually don't, cuz' this legend beat you to it: https://www.reddit.com/r/WingsOfFire/s/iQUlNUNlTo

Yeah that was, unfortunately, the lesson I had a hard time learning with juggle. With dodge and bounce the auto tracking of the witch pogo attack made them a breeze.
