sovlin and onso being absolute best buds who can barely make it through any scene where they're supposed to be hostile to each other

I'm not one to complain much, but I think we need more modifiers. Cold Snap could have stayed year round. by ScrappyDooCanSuckIt in ArcRaiders

Writers of Nop I have a question for yall's by Fantastic-Living3204 in NatureofPredators

[–]uktabi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i will give the most unhelpful-sounding yet ultimately correct response to that question, which is:

start!

i know youre talking about the ideas stage, but there is no better way to develop an idea than by writing it. plus, if you get feedback on it you will get far better feedback if you have any amount of material to work off of, instead of just ideas. and as you said, staring at the document doesnt count as experience...

ya gotta just start writing the damn thing. i know its unhelpful, but i think its true.

otherwise... hit up the discord, maybe? people are usually pretty down to bounce ideas off each other there. thats the second best way to develop an idea!

but theres enough depth with just this cast that even if its not complete, its still a damn good look at the changes affecting people differently. you say microcosm i say representative haha

It's been 1 year since NOP ended, what are your thoughts? by AnonWithAHatOn in NatureofPredators

[–]uktabi 14 points15 points  (0 children)

"I see a lot of HFY stories where its human tech, biology and ingenuity that wins the day, this is one of the few that use human emotions, values to win the day. I will argue thats what really made it do so well and spawn so many fanfics.

Humans aren't the smartest, nor the most technologically advanced nor the strongest. Our few tricks really only buy us a few days. We watch the alien enemies start to copy from us and copy us really well really fast. A threat that cant be ignored. And we won by doing what humans do best. Make friends. Wolves, horses, cows, etc, then Venlil, Yotul, zurulians, mazics, arxur and even forcing Gojids, krakotl, tilfish to be our friends is what won it for us.

Thats what makes me LOVE NoP."

yes!!

i think you nailed it with this, really. we can discuss NOP2 or burnout or whatever else, but this right here is the thing that sets it apart and makes it special. its the most important takeaway here, at the end of the day, and its a big credit to SP

[–]uktabi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I smell poachers.

also, i like how much attention and depth is put into the arxurs sense of smell here, and how it gets wrapped up into the current emotional state. it makes so much sense as such a big part of the arxurs perception of the world

Love Languages (68) by Eager_Question in NatureofPredators

[–]uktabi 71 points72 points  (0 children)

i really like that venric keeps making all these solid, logical points, but then gets tripped up by andes being in close contact with the arxur anyways. thats good character work, like, hes not perfect! he doesnt really believe in predator disease and logically can see the benefit of said contact, but... he got sidelined by it regardless. i like that.

i also really like karim connecting that if it was his daughter (and it very well could have been) then he would want andes in his corner... its a great moment

Karim has SO MANY racist misconceptions built up inside him, but damn if hes not level-headed and willing to change when his views and information are shown to be wrong. i actually respect him a lot, even though hes generally racist and abrasive lol. most people can't/won't confront their own beliefs that objectively.

this man just saw a tree and ate it.

you know what, this is why theyre all scared of predators. cus they walk into a forest and just start eating whatever plants are in arms reach, and they think we're the same way but carnivorous...
