Still throttled & far far far too slow
Yes, and if they were one frame per page (with many frames/pages repeating images) then they would also be frustrating - they are read a page at a time so you can go faster if you want. I can read pretty fast, so if its not dense or interesting enough for me to slow down then it gets very, very frustrating.
I can be one of those people once an author tells me through their storytelling they dont know how to English properly or write a compelling character.
Wait wait wait, this could be a valid point but didn't you say you like TWILIGHT in another thread
Oh damn! I am a sucker for YA romances and corny fantasy books and stories.Wait wait wait, this could be a valid point but didn't you say you like TWILIGHT in another thread
Riiiiiiight.... harry potter itself is wildly recognized as badly badly written haha, it just captured the 'lion witch and the wardrobe' vibe and imagination took off. I did read a spin off called 'witch trainer' once, that was pretty good though.Oh damn! I am a sucker for YA romances and corny fantasy books and stories.
I've also seen some decent alt universe spin offs from like Harry Potter too. So I can handle good-ish!
Say what you will about Twilight, at least it's written in proper English. If even 10% of games here were that well-written, I'd be happy.Wait wait wait, this could be a valid point but didn't you say you like TWILIGHT in another thread
I admit I haven't read it, but it can't be that bad.Read it & repeat that statement please
I was mostly referring to the proper use of English in the second part of my statement, not the overall quality of the book. I should have made that clearer.
Harry Potter is fine. It's head and shoulders above most YA stuff and let's not even get started on the writing in most LitRPG stuff. Turning into a lit snob is going to get you no where with me, because as always, a good story earns a lot of forgiveness from me...and I was lit minor for my first degree.
So I like a fun story and if it's fun it can work for me. I'm not asking for high prose and I'm ok with some vocab problems here or there.
Thankyou!
If the story telling carried the writing for you, then fine. But its not being a snob to say that it was painful to read for many, many people. There is a reason it resonated with children and people who don't really read.
Confirmation bias usually. It's literally one of the most read and most popular stories on earth. There is no way to twist it so that you rare few can pull that extra sensitive "we're super special and expect better" and expect it to hold water.
Compare that to Isis: the Fall, typical Tjord garbage with grammatical and spelling mistakes in most lines, an incoherent loser netori plot that's fucking dragged kicking and screaming to the endings by the dev, shallowest characterisation in the universe with the role of the worst imbecile kept for the MC, dreary, aimless dialogs, and weird cringe like "kukukuku" overload as the topping.Read it & repeat that statement please
I will still take that over twilight please (I never want to read that thing again). There is not much difference & at least this is funny in a 'the room' kind of way
A spellcheck typo in a thread is one thing, gaping plot holes in published works you are selling is another. If you like harry potter then like a said, power to you, but it does have a truck ton of issues you need to like the books enough to overlook (and if not then they pile up). I like plenty of books others do not, and that's fine (dealers choice so to speak). I mean I like some of the star wars movies and they are hardly hard thinking masterpieces... but light sabres
Nobody cares if people like or dislike books. I've read plenty of incredibly popular books that I hated. The difference is I didn't try to say they were poorly written slop to excuse me not liking them. I just said I didn't like them.I will still take that over twilight please (I never want to read that thing again). There is not much difference & at least this is funny in a 'the room' kind of way

Already gave the title and the dev's name, but here. Don't die.
Not really a fan tbh. I agree there were plotholes, but I didn't hate the books, and I think overfocus on plotholes is a flaw in geek reviewing. What's more important is how plotholes or any other flaws undermine the plot, or other aspects of the work. I think other flaws in Rowling's work are more relevant but I don't think that kills the magic.I will still take that over twilight please (I never want to read that thing again).

I swear to god my biggest pet peeve is that eagles Tolkien thing...which isn't a plot hole in the first place. It's not my fault you have to be a Tolkien lore expert to know why.
