    Which story of yours is probably the most suitable to have video game adaptation

    Games are my biggest inspiration, the magic system, especially the type of skills that the main duo uses is kind of a mix of Xenoblade and WoW. If I ever could somehow turn it into a game I think I'd love a xenoblade-esque combat system, with a more linear progression and tighter set pieces...

    As an author, how do you feel when you reread your novels?

    The first couple of weeks I can read a chapter and be fine or even like it, and then if I go back far enough I start to hate it. Especially if I've written newer chapters, I will start to nit pick all the tiny choices I made. So after a certain cut off point I stop reading old chapters cause I...

    Do every race have the same brain?

    Fantasy races probably have more biological differences than dog breeds which are all the same species and have wildly different cognitive abilities so I'd say that there would be massive differences in their brains.

    What are your first books you read that impacted you?

    First book I remember reading was where the Red Fern Grows in school, and of Mice and Men. I didn't really get into hobby though. I remember when I was like 18-20 I received the first book in the Dexter series cause my grandma knew I was a fan of the show and I did read that, I even bought the...

    You gotta have pretty good timing with that right? lol, little me would've lost his shit if he figured that out, that would've been a cool discovery.

    Puffstools are my favorite, I loved going into the perplexing pool challenge mode level in Pikmin 1 and giving the puff stool an army of Pikmin and then watching the Mushroom Pikmin and my guys beat the shit out of each other. I was a BIG fan of Pikmin 2's battle mode when the sequel came out lol

    I remember once getting a little overzealous with my throws and I accidentally tossed a bomb rock holding yellow Pikmin in with a group that was killing Sheargrubs. And bro decided the best action he could take in that moment was to throw the bomb back in my direction.

    Games you grew out of?

    I'm gonna join the trend and say MMOs are definitely a genre I've basically completely fallen out of love with. WoW butchered the world, and lore so badly that I don't even really like the IP anymore, just the memories. XIV was great till it again it wasn't, the butchering wasn't as hard but...

    Been a big fan of the series since it first came out, it's where I got my name lol. I didn't have a memory card for the longest time and my dumb 8 year old brain could barely multitask so I constantly had to watch Olimar die after 30 days passed. Probably the first game I ever played with a true...

    Be descriptive

    This is more from a reader perspective but I personally get really bored and started to speed read when people get a little too into describing detail. I was reading this book a month ago, that I did like but goddamn there were literal pages of sensory detail that I would haphazardly parse...

    When people prefer to confide in AI, is this a sign of a social empathy crisis?

    I've been to a therapist and I've also trauma dumped on the AI just to see what it would say and honestly if I had to choose which one made me feel even slightly better it'd be the latter. Could be that the therapist was shit or maybe I don't understand what therapy is supposed to actually do...

    Why does modern military firepower not work against monsters and other BS reasonings.

    I think it has a lot to do with the fact that it makes the monster seem less threatening if you can just shoot it. A gun is something that we know how effective and dangerous they can be so when the demon lord turns into mush from a 12 gauge well then eh... He's somebody I could probably deal...
