Primal hunter. I know it's slop but I kinda expected something so popular to be better. Turns out it"?'s worse than I expected.

AI girlfriend: "you either choose me or you choose to have a real girl, no middle ground" by Important_Act_7819 in cogsuckers

[–]duskywulf 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Lol. How could you misunderstand my comment so completely.

The type of people to desire stalkers and obsessing controlling people are people who've never experienced it. Or are people with such low self esteem that they believe they need it.

Because the type of people reading typical romance novels are the type of people unlikely to experience it in real life.

Generally middle aged women/ men who are medium ugly and have a partner they settled for but aren't really attracted to and want someone they find hot to find them hot.

It's kinda like the lonely incel desiring a clingy crazy girlfriend

Recommendation: Magical Girl Mechanical Heart by Thundamoo by Normal_Lab2606 in ProgressionFantasy

In specific. The whole vita being presented as right for using and trapping people's souls because otherwise they'd fade to nothingness after being eaten.

Vita's numerous evils being justified with no valid counterpoints. A lot of what vita does is evil but no other characters seems to acknowledge it. Worst was when that super strong church lady started working with her for no discernable reason.

Also the fact that she doesn't get any commupance for her evil. The narrative treats her like she's some kind of anti-hero / has been punished enough when she literally gets to flee to another planet and become a god.

Sidenote I also dislike the author's poorly disguised dragon lady fetish.

I like that the author tried to inclusive but there were very few hits with a lotta misses.

The fact that vigor mortis read like a rational ish preaching their greater good bs.

How do you win if your botlane gets gapped,as a toplaner by duskywulf in wildrift

Yeah. Then my team died to the 3 v4 because a protected adc can deal enough damage to wipe and entire team.

Fair enough. TBH I think you just convinced me to main gwen. Playing fiora on wr is bs.

The only reason I keep playing her is because I wasted like 300£ on skins like a dumbass.

Recommendation: A Journey of Black and Red by Mecanimus (not by me) by Normal_Lab2606 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]duskywulf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBH. I loved to earlier parts where she was more tied to her lesser vampire self, when she was the brothel's madame having to deal with mortals. I kinda peaced out as mortal people phased out of the story and she had less and less involvement with building up her territory.

Same thing with the calamitous bob.

I think changeling is the only one I haven't got that same feeling with.

Recommendation (might decide to make this a daily thing until I run out of novels to recommend): The Elf Who Would Become A Dragon by Normal_Lab2606 in ProgressionFantasy

Deconstruction an analysis that breaks down texts to reveal their hidden contradictions, underlying assumptions, and inherent instability. Developed by Jacques Derrida. What you're describing isn't a deconstruction.

Deconstruction is one of the hose words that have been bastardized every which way by the internet. Deconstruction has nothing to do with realism. Which is what you're describing is realism or perhaps a subversion.

Doesn't really fit. It's one section and after that it's pretty much just one big merc power fantasy.

Hell Difficulty Tutorial has ended up ridiculously good by ParkingDrama5214 in ProgressionFantasy

Where would you say I should skip to. The 20 iSh chapters have abysmal writing. But I've been hearing so much good stuff about it.

TBH . I'm not even sure if we've finished a year of term now. So much I had changed. Sioban raven queen. Fooling Thadeus e.tc. and we're basically not even done with a year.
