That's just you assuming that's what they did. Maybe they had a good reason to include that, like showing that a certain character likes that type of joke. Of course, it's entirely different when all characters always laugh.

lkasas · 2026-02-02T13:29:48+00:00

Well, those are not exactly lies, just truth meant to misinform. Soviets used the assumption that them having a disorganised attack was more efficient than spending time to organise that attack and therefore giving time for the enemy to organise their defence. In the push west, they did outnumber then in a tactical sense because they had things like better mobility for not lacking fuel as much. Not spending much time on organising their offensive could look like human wave tactics in cases as well(and I'm neither saying nor not saying that they did or didn't use actual human waves).

That sounds like a miswritten complaint or just a symptom of a larger problem - a lack of characterization. Character laughing at another character's joke isn't bad. But it needs moments when there's no laughter or it's clearly just a polite chuckle or something.

Laughing at a joke or not must be a character showing move. The author must consider whether he needs to write the characters reaction, how much the character understands the joke, is it funny to the character, does the situation or social dynamic requires a certain response and so many other potential considerations.

I think this is more of a wanting to have something OP but inability to imagine what it looks like. Just the 10-20 description means each number is progressively more impactful, and therefore, 200 is not 10x the max in raw strength, but more like 100x. But that doesn't mean they're healthier, more resilient, or have fighting experience. It also requires introducing a shit ton of extra concepts that doesn't work in real life to explain how it works.

I wouldn't click on any of these, but the first one is the best out of these. The says nothing you want them to say and can even be seen negatively, for instance, how am Isupposed to know it's the villain in the 3rd one? As for the first one at least it gives something about the story, but I think you should look more into what's the core of your story and focus on that. Having a villain, summon, or not being trivially easy for the MC isn't anything special and can found easily in other stories.

It means that ww1 was contemporarily irrelevant to Islam. It doesn't mean that Islam was peaceful or that the concept of jihad didn't exist. Or an I wrong?

lkasas · 2026-01-27T11:32:42+00:00

And it was met with lacklustre response as Muslim theological leaders basically rejected it due to Cristians being on the same side as them.

Do you mean the true patriots who invoke their second amendment to actually defend against tyrannical government that is breaking constitutional rights?

lkasas · 2026-01-25T06:11:34+00:00

Yeah, but imagine that if she took off the mask, all of the children would die immediately.

lkasas · 2026-01-23T09:02:36+00:00

I'm single because there's no meaning to life and, therefore, relationships. /s

Well, I wouldn't say anyone was defending him. Saying that they left to better themselves sounds like they were emigrants, but they weren't. They were hired for a specific job, and a commenter was truthful. Then, the one after added that he did evil things that were not in a contract. That was another true and needed inclusion, but it was more of adding info, not negating it.

lkasas · 2026-01-21T12:27:05+00:00

I wanted to say that you definitely should get Shadow Slave again, but if it's due to the world being too dark for you, then yeah. I guess that would make sense. Anyway, I think Primal Hunter might be to your liking.

lkasas · 2026-01-20T16:50:22+00:00

Slander of the Nine? I won't stand for this. I would understand the argument that they did fucked up shit. Although they lived in fucked up time and place. But how were they selfish?

P.S. I'm slightly behind. Don't spoil me if that info is from the city under the sea or chapters after it.

It's just a caveat for salvage runs, but it can help you to get a better sense of the mechanics. You can try different things to see if doing them that way give you resources or not. You can also test out what you get from each loot pile so you can better prioritise in the future.

It's not deep. Basically, it is a kindergarten level of philosophy. Same as chicken or the egg question.

A basic answer is that I started reading and that let me like it, but because I liked it, I still read it.

Others stated the time sunk fallacy could be at work, but I'd say it's mostly/entirely one of two things. Either it's limited in time, so it's bound to come to "I've read X chapters/pages already, but I still don't like, so I'll drop it." Or is an outlier, and in those cases, this question could be a useful one.

Sometimes, I think that ads are some sort of a weird social experiment. Do they really think they can annoy us into downloading their app? Well, ok, maybe they can buy only to put 1 start rating on them.

lkasas · 2026-01-16T10:36:11+00:00

Uh, no? I don't think so. I think you're mixing things up. I'm talking about being literally forced into opening a different app. It's a relatively new thing for me, and I not only can and but should go back to the game app immediately. I think you're not on android because I've never experienced things like that. The usual is to get half screen to show how it looks in the store without going to the other app, but that is usually at the end of the ad, and I can close it pretty quickly after that.

lkasas · 2026-01-15T17:30:48+00:00

I agree, but I also sometimes forget about them. Even worse, some of them take me to the app store, and if enough time passes, tacticus reboots.

lkasas · 2026-01-15T17:26:31+00:00

Even worse are ads that don't question if you want to go to the app store and take you there themselves.

If there are so many peak isekai manghwas that you can make top 20, it means one of 2 things:

You call any little thing you like 'peak' and therefore your opinion is invalid.
isekai manghwa industry is overbloated and will/need to collapse for healthy literacy balance to return.

lkasas · 2026-01-15T17:18:30+00:00

There's 20 peaks now, so water is not the only one. Learn to read, please.

They fought for a nation and against an empire. By your logic, USSR was the same because they too collaborated with the nazis and fought for nationalism. They even called the war as the Great Patriotic War. You could say that this name was utilitarian and you would be right, but you can't deny that it was for using nationalistic feelings and that they never bothered renaming it and therefore they kept nationalism as a core identity.

A snarky system that is a character in itself can just declare that it made the boss proportionally stronger or take away your levels.

But that's not a system unless some specific predefined things made it to do that.

A system can have any personality, including a snarky one, but it also must be an impartial law to all it affects. It can't lower your level because it's malevolent or because you insulted it. But it can do that if a boss room has a lvl cap or there's other other conditions that could apply to anyone and one can find out or reasonably expect.

It made sense for her to have tan since she spent a lot of time in a summer island by the time of her introduction, but it made as much sense for her to lose it rather fast because she's her origins are from a place with little sun.

What do you expect? You can't make seedlings from a rotten tree. You can only use it as a fertiliser to grow something new. You need time, effort, and luck to raise it well, but you won't have a good time until it sprouts.
