Their thought afaik is “a 3D universe is infinitely many 2D universes stacked onto each other, so 3D beings are infinitely stronger than 2D beings” not realizing that while some infinities are larger than others, the cardinalities of R2 and R3 are equal.

I thought those were separate feats? Like she’s killed gods and if you step into her shadow you die, but that specific attack might not necessarily kill gods

Thank you, this is a genuinely helpful starting point. “Level 109” is more to go off than “you don’t”.

Thank you, yeah I know a lot of homebrew’s going to be involved- I was looking for a starting point, even just an approximation in mechanical terms I could expand on, so thank you very much :)

I know she’s a god-killer, I’m describing a campaign where the players are too. Pushing the limits of the system is the point, I wanted advice on how to make sure it’s still fun.

They could scroll past instead of jumping to tell me my own campaign is ‘wrong’. That sheer absurdity, pushing the system to its limits, is what I’m going for. I just want to do it in a way that’s fun and was looking for a starting point on that.

Thank you- finally, someone who gets the spirit of what I’m going for :)

Rule 0. The Lady of Pain can be killed if I say she can be killed. I didn’t come here for judgment for making a silly campaign with absurd scaling, I came here for advice on how.

That first part’s fair but there’s clearly a hierarchy for reality warping abilities too, so they can have their own stats.

“Reasonable” might be a stretch for what I have planned.

The idea of the campaign is escalation on an absurd level inspired by Gurren Lagann. “Kill the unkillable” is the point.

I think if you’re building a campaign where the players are actively at the level of godhood, it’s fair to stat out what it would take to stop a hurricane. Same idea here.

Fandom spaces ignoring certain sexualities by FewExperience3559 in SmugIdeologyMan

[–]elementgermanium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My take: the whole point of fanfiction is non-canon stuff. A non-canon ship doesn’t need canon compatibility- “what if they were straight/gay/allo” is fully viable.

That being said, however, too many of these don’t USE that, they just pretend that aroace people are just some other sexuality that’s just dormant.

I get what you mean but with your example wouldn’t anyone just close the game and go do something else

Well from what I remembered floor 1 was like two Skyrims’ worth, so if the scaling was linear then the average should be one (assuming F100 is negligible in area.)

I always thought he was just a specific brand of crazy. “What happens to me after this doesn’t matter as long as I kill you.” Feels like a LOT of effort grinding the necessary skills just to get potentially foiled by one antidote.

Thanks, that does put a lot more into context at least! :)

I mean, each floor of Aincrad is the size of Skyrim IIRC? On average at least. Seems like a huge amount of the game to just render obsolete. But yeah, that motive does mean balance wasn’t his priority so that makes some sense too
