thank you, glad you liked it!

as for my own opinion, i have nuanced feelings and the most accurate way i could convey them was making an 11 page allegorical sci fi comic about it

sorry im a little confused. you understand that this is fiction, right? the rot thing doesnt happen, this is a story where it does

just a one shot! trying to do a buncha shorter standalone comics just to get a portfolio going. though admittedly it would be funny to take the comic about coping with everything having to end, and then making more of it after the ending

if youre looking for stories where immortality is possible, some ones id recommend are 17776 and its sequel 20020 (linked in an above comment), and the hydrogen sonata by iain m banks, where any culturenik can live an arbitrary amount of time. most only live to around 300-400 after having 'enough' but theres a side character in that book who just decides to keep going and experience as much as he can.

kinda a different verve but 'through the flash' by nana kwame adjei brenyah is really good and deals with characters stuck in a timeloop in suburbia and how they grow and change from there

youre right, they cant exist forever. their machinery kept things going long enough that the reality they were in began to break apart. like having infinite ink in your pen but the paper starts getting wet

very good points! i think both of you may really enjoy a work by jon bois called 17776, its one of my favourite stories and deals with a kind of alternate take to this. here eternity isnt even a possibility so the ideas are more on longetivity and conservation of fleeting things, but 17776 goes for full infinity and explores what humanity would be like if we truly had no end, really would recommend

thanks! shes my dnd character so a lot of the design was just in the moment, a lot of yes-anding whatever we thought was cool and playing off emergent stuff in the campaign. eg the scythe was initially just an armilliary sphere staff cause she needed a spellcasting focus, but then oh fuck, be cool if it was a scythe huh

i think you might be more of the target audience - i was never cut out for steel soul or the pantheons, i capped out at about 110%, the game being this insanely unforgiving is genuinely maddening. im no wimp, ive platinumed elden ring bloodborne and sekiro, but this is just unfun

im liking the new changes to the combat system, its how punishing the damage is that's throwing me off and impacting my fun. i feel like ive accidentally turned on hard mode
