Why? Kelvin is really good for science, but I can't see an advantage over Celsius for everyday life How? Fahrenheit is one of the least intuitive scales I can think of.

There are also other projects where male mosquitoes are sterilized en masse (usually with radiation) and released to the wild. Both this and what you brought up are way more in line with what I mentioned (and simpler than a targeted virus or nanobots) than using Goblin Slayer style goblins as...

If they can design a species for population control, they can also design a specialized virus or targeted nanobots to reduce the fertility of the target population. Or use robots or a less barbaric species for the job, adding reproduction by mandatory r*** is needlessly cruel towards the victims.

I don't usually outright cancel something I start, since I tend to look at tags and stuff to filter out stuff I won't want to read anyway. Though some things can fall way behind and it may take me quite a while to get back to them (when it comes to webnovels or manga, this time also allows them...

That is one shitty and cruel way for the supposedly omnipotent gods to go about this. Like, how about just reducing their reproduction rate to a stable level, or create more room for them to live in.

Only after actively creating, supporting and offering a justification for the worst system of slavery we've seen on this planet. I can't think of any instances where the catholic church, or any other large organized church, was the instigator of actual social progress, rather than jumping on...

This is relevant if there is evolution like in the real world, at least if it is to the degree it is depicted in Goblin Slayer and similar settings. And even then, we have both brood parasites and animals that place their eggs inside living hosts in the real world, both of which could be seen as...

It's always visible light, but once it scatters on a surface it becomes visible outside the original beam. If you use a laser pointer in a very dusty environment, you'll be able to see the beam itself due to the scattering on the dust that crosses the beam. Industrial Lasers can do nasty things...

I'm looking forward to doing so with weaponized lawnmowers in game 3.

Probably about how cyoa is used as a term for extensive *narrative) character creation instead of a narrative, often in a book, in which the reader has to choose how to proceed every so often, which is where the term comes from.

I object to the mention of Winged Hussars without the song. Cavalry tends to work best in big formations to really use the advantage of a high mass charge into the enemy lines (ideally flanks of back, because rising into a wall of spears is stupid). That's really impressive in a visual medium...

Gotta remember to visit the solar system when I go for another Mass Effect 2 playthrough. I mean, who would pass up the chance to literally probe Uranus.

Lots of nice mentions already. I think it's Total War: Warhammer II for me at the moment, very hyped for part III. Really looking forward to playing Elsa, but cooler, her dragon girlfriend, Big Bird and friends.

I have to disagree on that. Plot holes rarely have to do with the amount of information the consumer has and more with bad planning and tracking in general. More importantly, a plot hole can exist weather the consumer has the information to notice it or not. On topic, it might be worth noting...

There are tons of video game fanfics, it's just not really the niche SH gravitates to. I'm honestly not surprised when there are older, well established sites that are dedicated to fanfics.

I'm actually not even sure how much overlap there is between RPG/MMORPG fans and litRPG fans. Nor if the existing overlap is based in the superficial similarities between these two. The only real similarity of litRPGs and RPGs/MMORPGs I can think of is the numbers based status and leveling...

This depends on a lot of factors we don't know. And given the lack of factual evidence to reincarnation, I doubt we'd ever get to test these factors. We don't know how much the younger body influences the emotional maturity of the reincarnator. We don't know how big the influence of growing up a...

That depends on the order, some may actually prefer counting how many have fallen as martyrs over counting how many are left. English is generally rather gender neutral (at least if you don't look into the origin of the words), making it a lot better than some other languages. But this also...
