    The Last to Comment Wins

    She's pretty much the least insane person from this group, tho. Not suicidal, not completely useless. She's just a one-time-use nuke. Anyone smart could make use of her, but seeing the cast of Konosuba...

    Your favourite undying MC archetype?

    Voting #4 because everything else is overdone. Parasitic MCs aren't popular outside of some really small niches.

    Writing What stories do you use as references for your work(s)?

    I'm pretty much a JRPG nerd, so most of my inspiration is from there. I'm not gonna make a list. If it wasn't utterly terrible, had an English version or fan translation, and came out during the Gamecube to Ps3 era, chances are I at least heard of it if not played it. Or Terry Pratchett and...

    Cartoonishly "evil"

    "Screaming children always remind me of my first time" "Killing people? I would never! I have henchmen for this kind of menial task." "I wish I had a nuke, so I could stream myself pushing the button only to fire a real one after everyone realized the stream was fake." "Have you ever done...

    Am I Screwed?!

    Nah, dood. Weebs aren't on the shoot-on-sight list anymore. Long gone are the days when we needed to be stealthy and mysterious about our hobbies, long gone is the feeling of wonder and the thrill of danger. Nowadays you just say you're a freelance author and if people ask if they should know...

    Your thoughts on Brandon Sanderson?

    I liked Mistborn, but Stormlight Archive got too big, too fast for me. It started with a military underdog story and a few other standard fantasy tropes, but turned into the open world sequel of the 123rd iteration of a long-running series where you're expected to know your glossary already way...

    Headache Of Units Types

    Just use even more arbitrary types of units instead. Just create something nobody would understand like hands, arms, and throws, give them some random number and then write like everybody knows what those mean.

    When rating something do you see a 5/10 as average or failing?

    Average. I paid for the whole rating scale, so I'm gonna use the whole rating scale

    How much details do you use?

    There's a joke to be found here :unsure:

    How much details do you use?

    Just enough to create a slight picture, I'm a terrible artist so I'd like to think the readers' imagination is better than most things I could cook up. Not because I'm lazy, I swear!

    Character not acting like their age(older acting younger)

    Show some shadows of his past, establish him as competent in certain areas, in this case business, planning, and leadership, but also show that he doesn't want to bother with those areas unless there's no other way. Maybe drop a few hints about his involvement in bigger things outside as a...

    Medieval Stasis, a rant.

    Short answer: Religion Less short answer: Lazy writing Depends on a case-by-case scenario though. Most of the time it has to do with the power dynamics in the story, you don't want 40k dwarfs fighting unga-bunga sticks unless it's a power trip story, after all. Humans are overrated, tho...

    Do you use slang?

    You call that a Karen? That's just normal German bad neighbor behavior. I've heard this happen more than enough times to friends. I'm so glad I actually live in the chillest countryside where almost everything can be solved by inviting the other party to a beer or a coffee. I wouldn't call...

    Dumb names people name their children

    Now that's a dumb name. If you don't want to name your child, the least you could do is let the cat walk over the keyboard instead of this.

    Dumb names people name their children

    And shortly after thinking Princess is the weirdest one I'll see in a while, I meet a fucking "Theophrastus"... Even Paracelsus would have been a better name... If you punish your child with that name, at least give him the whole package of "Philippus Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus von...
