    How Dark Is Your Story?

    ...That's not a "may," that 100% does. It is the wrong type of opening entirely for that type of story since it sets the wrong tone. In fact, here, this is what I recommend you read to consider how to better open stuff...

    Help me please.

    Narcissistic is actually the ones who can't take criticism become they care so much. The problem here is actually closer to the reality of it to begin with. XD

    Deciding Future Video Topics

    That's kind of what that video will be about anyway. :s_wink: Though yes, I can go into greater detail and approach from more than just the angle I'd be hitting on it. Hmm... That appears to be a little something with premise vs. promise. ...Given a recent discussion I had, I'm incredibly...

    Deciding Future Video Topics

    I've kind of gotten through most video topics asked about, though there are a couple I still need to hit up. So, anything in particular people want to toss out for me? The more specific, the better. Also, I've brought back the weekly vote. You can vote here for me to keep everything organized...

    How to Keep Sympathetic Villains Villains

    Started thinking about this last night and do whipped this up. I'll be opening up a vote again on the community tab for people later today. If any topic you want, now's the time to ask as I've a couple of ideas.

    Decided to do the other side of the coin today with villains.

    What is a Hero?

    No, my point is that he isn't a hero, for the reasons I made clear when noting heroic attributes and how he falls short. And then I brought up Superman killing Zod and why his kill doesn't make him NOT a hero. I spelled it all out in the video. Why debate things if you aren't even going to hear...

    What is a Hero?

    I bring up General Zod specifically for this point to show how screwed up that logic can become. I discuss that in the comments, too.

    What is a Hero?

    It's time for another episode. I'm certain there will be plenty of disagreement, but I feel this is essential. I decided to explore what constitutes heroism more this time while focusing on trying to get at what I view as the heart of heroism. I reject the notion that "heroism" is a subjective...

    How to Make Paragon Heroes Not Boring

    There's a part of me who wants to say that a lot of the struggles people have with tackling this type of character are a skill issue, but I think I put my finger on what the actual problem is early on and developed all kinds of tips around that. Nothing I see as revolutionary, but having it...

    Flawed Heroes

    I'm adding this in for some stuff on writing character flaws and flawed heroes. In this case, one thing I really wanted to hit on was minor versus fatal flaws and just plant that concept for some future stuff next week as it's the start of me targeting a misconception which irritates me.

    Story Theory: Heroism is Key to Great Stories

    I see you missed the part where I say I would have as well if not for others touching on similar things and me just using it as a framework for communication. It's why I don't reject things out of hand, even if it comes from sources I'm not the biggest into.

    Story Theory: Heroism is Key to Great Stories

    This is a little theory I've concluded so far, based on my research and experiences. Plus, it sets up the next series, where I'll first go into greater depth into heroism, as I detest people who claim that it is subjective/a matter of perspective.

    Tournament Arc Stock Characters

    I kept thinking about tournaments and competition stuff lately due to Blue Lock and ended up making this. Hope it can help!

    Soft Magic Systems

    Last in this specific series, finally hitting soft magic at its softest. I discuss a bit about bad magic systems in this too, as I dislike the notion that a system being flawed makes it soft or hard makes it good.
