God i miss the block button. It would improve my experience greatly if i wasn’t forced to see the constant negativity from specific people if i wanted to see what the normal/likeable patrons thought of the chapter.
So NOW is when author explains vaguely some of the steps taken for this to work. Not in earlier chaps (as some delusional mofos told me last chap) NOW!In no moment has been explained how will it be for someone to be summoned to this mental space, what would happen with the earlier avatar u displayed while on such space, neither about the nicknames and such (gm should still harbour feels for elfnuna in some way, so he just wont agree on loosing the older nicks fully).The only thing we’ve been told is that havelion got assigned to work on things on the backburner and then checked again after awhile, for the gm to say he needed more time.
And then boom everything is set and ready to go. Up and runningThat is clearly a cheap overconvenient way to rush/align plot while there are still inconsistencies or unanswered questions so to speak. To say a few:How did they create the pill? How could they manage to make tests with evil spirits and natives for it to work? ( soulqueens and who? Cause the native would know hes dealing with evil spirits, hence becoming a possible threat to be dealth with). how does the monetary sistem of gp works? do they generate currency just logging in? Wont that generate inflation?Well its easier to say “As expected, leaving most of the work to the GM had been the right decision.”. Have havellion manage everything “offscreen” and fuck it.Thats lazy. So ill stand on what I said last chapter, this is not good writting.Imo the way to handle this so it doesnt feel cheap or rushed is stablishing rules beforehand, and not after the “fact” ocurrs…It might seem that you could cripple the pace of the story, but thats why you adress this kind othings on the low tension moments of an arc. Instead of briefly passing over them to attempt a murder mistery plot that you cant handle, or just giving a mistery box jj abrams approach, with a gate that leads to a room that might be the same or a paralel one of the protagonist, like it matered (bjorn/lee hanso already went to a paralel “real” world, got locked in an asylum for a while and had a copy of his mother that, in paralel world loved him).Now, on another note, there are some who feel buthurt when I criticize the series, or the author, as if I was hurling insults at them directly. And for those people I have only one thing to say.Grow up, try to develop some critical thinking. Or youll be eaten alive out there. XOXO
Tbf, havellion is a genius magitech engineer, and also the one who designed the previous version of the pill, and revamped Ghostbusters to version 1.1 after receiving it from Gavis.For him to be working on this day and knight, likely with the help of SoulQueens, after several months, is not far fetched with his prior experience.Also, the story didn’t need to explain all the new details beforehand – it would have been irrelevant information until now (the doll avatar, new rules, etc). I’d argue that it does build on what was established back in ch 76 and 91 about how the community interface operates. I actaully like how the story reveals information as you dive in, almost like Google maps when you zoom in, or like in starcraft/lol where you uncover the fog of war when you enter a new space.Also re: the feedback – tbh I think it’s reactions to your pattern of complaints each chap, in favor of a balance of fair/constructive criticism and credit where due. That’s my take anyway, others are welcome to chime in on their views. Its fine to criticize a work you value/care about, but there must also be something you like that keeps you coming back, no? I think also highlighting that might help
I understand that being 2 specific or over exhaustive, might get boring. But there must be a balance in between whats explained and what happens. If not you risk the story to feel contrived.
Feels like the plot, and whatever ocurrs along the story, develops in a specific way just cause the author says so, being a nonsensical outcome or not.Now in response about why I continue to read the series while I critique it so much.. There are mainly 2 reasons for that…One is a matter of principle, once I start something, I want to finish it.Two is a monetary reason, once I get charged im bound to make use of what I paid for. So whenever I pay for the monthly subscription I feel like I need to make use of what I paid for or Ill be wasting my money… Meaning that in some ocasions I want to know more and continue deliberately and in others I just forget and move along.Dont get me wrong I do like the series, and there are plenty of things that I dig within it (main character being flawed, and certainly not a goody goody two shoes is one of em) . But there are other that I dont like as much, and as well, developments that I loathe (like doll fucking bjorn).Still I kind of dig having the downvote record within this comunity, it certainly brings some engagement which for sure hen would love, so cheers. 😀
Holy moley, that’s a lot of downvotes! Lmao, I didnt even notice until you pointed it out 😛Okay, I see you – you’re invested, but not entirely feeling your returns. I’d just say maybe occasionally sharing some of what you like about the series alongside your gripes will make you sound a lot less like a Debbie downerThen again, reach for them goals homie, and take your trophy 😛
I am happy that they didnt go into detail, because frankly speaking I dont care. I want to see the interactions and labyrinth stuff the political stuff is for my opinion often too much, so let’s see how this community works out.
