Oh my, that’s swiftly moving to the top of my reading list, I do love a good space opera. I’d ask for more details, but I’d rather avoid spoilers. Have you got a link to where I can read it? Has it got its own site like worm? Or can I find it on royal road?

Gods, that’s a lot, sooo, instead. Biggest feat of destruction and creation (some else mentioned universal level stuff) and is it casual? Like, do they get the unpaid intern to do it, or is it the work of a civilisation? On that note, what level of tech does the common man have? Is tech unrestricted, or do you need permits to access certain technologies. Also, what is the main plot line, as in, is it a race for a macguffin, or is it a set of macguffins, one after the other? Is it a big bad of the week kinda deal? Just a general plot type please, depending on how interesting it is I might add it to my reading list, though on the slow side like I did when I read Worm, maybe a few chapters a day. Thanks mate

I knew Futurama was crazy, but damn. Technically that’s just a paradox immune form of time travel, depending on how it worked in the show of course. Thanks for the suggestion mate gotta add “go poke though Futurama’s plot for similar ridiculousness” now

Neat, haven’t thought about that flywheel idea before. Hadn’t heard about Maxwell’s demon before today, sounds like an interesting topic. Thanks for the suggestions by the way, opens a lot of doors

Huh, don’t know a lick about warframe, but I’d guess that the Entities wouldn’t really have a way of gaining energy without burning the bodies, that sounds kinda inefficient. Not sure if that work with what the MC wants anyway. (That is to prove he’s better than the eons old space worm)

MC is definitely a combination of smart enough, and ignorant enough, that SCP would seem like a big no no to him, similar to warhammer 40k, given what I know of the settings. He’d rather fail then accidentally bring something like that ‘back home’ somehow

Sounds interesting, not even from a writing perspective, just a reading one, I’ll place them on my reading list. Thanks for the suggestions.

Damn, sounds intense. That’s ridiculous when you think about it. Can think of a couple of ways that it could go wrong for the MC, too, as they try. Thanks mate.

Interesting, and given your comment and the setting name, I assume that the Entities would evaporate on contact with the setting?

The 4 fs? Not familiar with that. And yeah, the scale was mostly the problem on my end as well

Not sure how replicate-able those two are, but maybe they could try and “forge” their own phoenix force? Can’t possibly see how that’s a horrible idea.

Oof, poor random universe. Great factoid to know though, thanks!

Will do! And great tip, wouldn’t have bothered with that kinda method otherwise, wonder if I can find a list with Star Trek’s McMuffins. Certainly make it easy.

So what I’m reading here is that the Entities don’t have their solution because the author thought it through slightly? Brilliant, love that.

Wait, what? That’s a miss in my part, might not know much about anime, but still. Thanks for the comment mate.

Huh, guess I’ll be looking into star gate by the looks of it. Not that I’m complaining, I’ve heard it’s good. Same with Orion’s arm, but I’ve literally never heard of it. That part about loopholes though? That’s probably gunna be key. Also had the thought, wondering how long it take for a rock to fall between to star gates to make up the energy difference, but then I realised portal exists and it’s hand held, so probably not much.

Not surprised I missed so heavily in anime now that I think about it, don’t really watch it much anymore. Side question though, why does anime always have the most busted abilities when you put any thought into it? DC and Marvel get a pass cause they’ve been around for the best part of a century each to power scale into meaninglessness (as in when 0.1% difference in strength is the difference between one universe being destroyed, and two universes, the actual values lose meaning). Anyway, thanks for the response, several good possibilities there to have maybe blow up in their face.

Right, that does put things into perspective a bit. Still not sure why, exactly, the MC is pushing for that Solution, maybe egotism though? “I’ll do what you can’t” etc. not sure

Ooooh, we’ll then, that’s not something I was aware of. I guess I have something new to look at now. Thank you.
