    The writer was so preoccupied with whether or not he could that he didn't stop to think if he should. Why the heck would you choose to put annoying teen drama into your supposedly serious book. Can we go back to levelling please.

    I am willing to believe that the writer is a teenager because he writes his teenage characters so annoyingly well that I hate them. So much drama. Can Orrin PLEASE stop being a pussy.

    My biggest problem with it is that there's just too much for him to upgrade. He has his three daos, his heart, his soul, his body cultivation, his weapon, his pet vines, his core, his bloodline, his nodes, his hidden nodes... and I'm sure I've forgotten several things. It drags the story...

    Finished Hell Difficulty Tutorial, like it. Started Ripple System, I really hope the MC does not stay a WoW Warlock for long.

    His appearance is pretty standardized on the book covers I don't mind this aspect of his personality at all. It's pretty clear he's been through some trauma and using it as a coping mechanism. You find out more about his history as the books go on and it explains a lot.

    Loving Hell Difficulty Tutorial so far, just finished book 4. The ending of that book is amazing.

    First book was very bad. It does get better, but the guys political lean gets worse.

    I don't mind a lot of characters, only dislike it when they get equal billing with the main character - and I actually like "unlikeable" protags - Only villians do that has exactly that. I'll check out Hell Difficulty next :) Edit: You're going to have to tell me exactly which Hell Difficulty...

    I have a couple personal problems with mage hunter. First, the heavy focus on a party. I don't mind side characters, or even party members ala Path of Ascension, but I do like the main character to be the main character. Mage Tank feels like it has 5 main characters and it's a bit much. Second...

    The Fast Food Thread

    I only get McNuggets when they are $3.13 for 15 here. Or you can get 2 large fries and 15 nuggets for $6.21. The Burger King Habanero nuggets are great too but a little more expensive, $4.89 for 15.

    Ending a LitRPG seems to be a weak point to be sure. The ones I've experienced came suddenly and often use time skips to get to where they envisioned the series ending. Everyone Loves Large Chests was like this. Unbound too, to a point. Blue Core was the most satisfying ending to a LitRPG I've...

    Ramune flavour, and it's a Milk Caramel Pie, but you're right it does look like it has two different types of caramel in there. Or it could be chocolate and caramel. I'll find out tomorrow!

    I was surprised you left, you seemed to enjoy it here. Mum is coming back again in February, going to hit up Sapporo this time and then take the train south and stop wherever we like. Not sure how much longer I'll be in Japan though, with the immigration changes and restrictions tightening and...

    If you're desperate, you can always go to Royal Road and read the chapters he's released since book 14, they're always publicly available until the new book gets published.

    Tokyo, Japan

    The JR pass will cover most JR trains in places like Tokyo, even to the airport, not sure about other major cities, but the downside is that you can't just swipe you need to talk to the staff there in the little booth and have them check you out. Even with "not needing" a suica or pasmo it's not...

    YouTube's War on Ad Blockers

    JP is loaded with ads on Youtube. Usually 2-3 prerolls, one unskippable, and several midrolls. Using Brave eliminates them but it makes it a pain to watch Youtube on my work laptop where I have to use Chrome. You probably aren't getting ads because the system knows you are US based but your IP...

    After plowing through all of DCC, Primal Hunter and Defiance of the Fall in like 6 weeks, it's definitely a breath of fresh air to start He Who Fights with Monsters. The baggage of a story that includes Earth transitioning into some kind of multiverse was getting old. Having a good old sword...

    I just finished Defiance of the Fall book 16 and went to Royal Road and chapter 1336 makes no sense. Am I missing something here? DoTF is definitely worse the Primal Hunter and both of them are worse than Path of Ascension. DoTF seems like it will never finish, he has so many plot threads...

    Took a little over 2 weeks to get up to date with Primal Hunter. Do not consider it time wasted, although it was a rough start. Gotta catch up on some anime and gaming then dive into the next one, maybe DotF

    It's the easter eggs he slips in. One of the chapters is called "For the Horde" for example. There's been half a dozen so far but I'd have to go back and re-read them to catch them all.

    Also just started Primal Hunter. Cautiously optimistic so far. No way the writer wasn't a WoW player though.

    I read all the books, including Book 8. I don't understand audio book users either. I walk to work and live in Tokyo so no need for a car, maybe its a commuting thing.

    Statistically not worth unless you need more AIC quota to keep buying the 5 free per month. Even pulling more than the free 10 isn't worth it. The gravy train will run out eventually, save for a rainy day.

    Arknights Endfield

    No nothing like that. But the 5 daily reward pulls + the 5 pulls you can buy in the shop for AIC quota reduce the 80 pity for a 6* operator, and this does carry over from banner to banner. Use the 10 free pulls on Laevatain? You now have 70 on Gilberta. Then 60 on Yvonne. Etc, etc. This allows...

    People bitch about this constantly but I absolutely love it. Each character lets me reduce the pity by 10 for the one I really want. It also generates free AIC quota. I got Rossi in 40 pulls because I had reduced the pity down by stacking the free 10 pulls on Yvonne, Gilberta and Tang Tang...

    Skipping the cringe is definitely the play. Weird tentacle sex was a choice to be sure. Only Villians Do That is not as well written, but I enjoy the protagonist more. He's in the vein of anime protagonists who actually act like a normal person would. With confidence and a middle finger to...
