Gaming is mainstream now, and systems are a shortcut for expressing power.
Yes, many authors are telling you how strong characters are, instead of showing you. Which is an amature mistake. And most use it to define a character instead of it representing what a character can do.
Like a...
I abstain from voting. The weight of a person is a poor metric to measure fat. A person can have a gut at 180 lbs or can be an absolute unit at 200 lbs from muscle mass.
Too many ladies fall into the weight trap. A fit rock climber can weigh more than a lazy chub because muscle is more dense...
Evil originates from fulfilling desire regardless of the cost to other beings.
Yes, we require desire to live, but we don't have to do it at the suffering of other people. Thus I will always try best to not buy from companies and countries that support slavery like China and Apple.
Elephant man.
Wait just a name and not a real guy.
Got it 'Larry'. That name evokes an image of a guy married to a Karen and just gets forever dunked on.
Tengu. Shape shifting, flying, can gracefully take a loss, but will wreck your world if you try the same con again. Possible ties to Chinese spirit beasts and Morgana.
The youtube channels Skallagrim and Shadiversity would help you. There's more channels, but I think these two cover ALOT of info and dispelling myths, as well as fictional fantasy arms and armor.
To expand, Skallagrim studies European swords arts and is a part of a FEMA group. He likes to talk...
I use light mode, cause the site always defaults to it when I turn java script off. I got a shitty mobile so all the java sucks up more battery than light mode does.
Agreed. I consider them media formats.
Constantine is a comic with a contemporary fantasy/horror genre. The Alien comic is sci-fi action/horror. Thor is contemporary fantasy superhero.
Robotech(Macross) has novels, manga/comic, games, and anime series. Thus why I think comic isn't a genre, but...
Looking at my book collection, I have the Dune series, 2001 series, Drizt series, Elf Quest series, Robotech series, some W40k, Tsubasa Chronicles, xXx holic.
Definitely a sci-fi, fantasy, adventure person.
All the arts are the same. People tend to have a romanticized notion that it's a breeze for the talented and everyone else just shouldn't do it. When the reality is that those talented people worked at it. The difference is that they had the passion or stubbornness to keep at it for years to get...
Harem wise, it is a lot.
Problem is, I've seen authors ask readers who to have as best girl, and there's a ton of readers just spamming harem.
So, I can't say it's JUST the authors' fault. It's a super popular tag for all them types over compensating for their loneliness/horniness.
I've watched some BL anime before, but I can say it's not my cup of tea. The prevalence of uke/seme power dynamic is annoying to me. I much prefer the more equal partner relationships in more often found in yuri.
Yes that also means I skip most harem stories. As it tends towards uneven power of...
Eh, I can't trust webnovel. Chinese services are constantly being found to funnel, or backdoor user info to the CCP. Even Zoom had a CCP spy handing over user info and banning users of people who talk bad about them.
Tea.
I use to drink coffee as a teen to try and fit in thinking it was a way to be 'cool' and 'adult'.
Once I actually grew up and learned that not giving any fucks about what others think lowered my anxiety, I just drink what I like the taste of.
I fear the Huawei backer of webnovel. Only idiots would use real ID and/or buy coins. Considering Huawei's known for it's 5G back doors, I wouldn't put it past them to make webnovel fork over user info.
But yeah webnovel sucks. Doesn't even have advanced search function. Also doesn't help that...
That's quite the youthful worry.
So long as technology progresses, everyone will eventually have their job replaced by robots anyway. Social relevance never mattered to me once I realized just how tiring it is to be around people. Looking at aunt's, their social relevance transfered to their...
I'm a 98% hermit introvert. I don't even game with people in mmos. If I could pick a different species to be, I'd go golem. Just so I don't have to eat or deal with things like heat/cold, and various body functions. What about sex? Bitch I'm a hermit. If I didn't have a high sex drive making me...
Reality warper. Mainly because space-time manipulation is a subset power that a reality warper can also do.
Space-time manipulator: I'll erase your existence!
Reality warper: oh?
Space-time manipulator: I love squid flavored ice cream.
