I read web novels to remind myself why I still belief in Buddhist principles. Mostly involving hatred towards mobsters, thugs, crime lords and psychopathic old men in young boys' bodies fondling underage women as trophy concubines.

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:i wish that wn's about genius doctors didn't always turn into an extended wankfest about traditional chinese medicine I wish that wn's about poor lepers didn't always turn into an extended wankfest of eugenics and SUPERIOR NOT RACIST GENES. I wish that wn's about reincarnated japanese men didn't always turn into a tale of casual homophobia and polygamy. The worse part about the polygamy is that they don't even try to make a statement like "yeah they all are completely fine with each other why do you have a problem with their relationship"? More often than not it's "gently caress all the anime."

It's what these nerds want. They want to appear like they are master of rules and work hard in a system but in reality they just want power handouts for being special snowflakes.

Well then, I guess it's going to be a while until I can translate as well as Blastron. I don't want to go down the path of facilitating the popularity of problematic and boring power fantasies.

Is there any XianXia novel that knows how to fight other than power shin kicking? I feel like the concept of dodging is lost on them.

There is nothing more boring for me than a battle where you already know who is going to win, everything is just theatrics to pretend it's more exciting than it actually is.

gimme the GOD drat candy posted:to me, the strangest part of chinese wn's is how every one of them i've read absolutely seethes with greed. more money, more power, more women, but it is never enough and this endless thirst is somehow seen as a virtue. You know all those cyberpunk films where the protagonists are fighting the megacorporations who exploit others for profit and foster a culture where the rich are avatars of goodliness? These guys see those films and think "You know being the ceo ain't so bad i'm pretty sure that if I was in charge I'd be making everyone's lives better, except for the people I hate." Also something Communism and hyper capitalism ebbs and flows in Chinese history. Annointed fucked around with this message at 03:18 on Jul 26, 2017 |

Well at least someone's honest with their feelings of wanting totalitarian governments that solely exist for them and them alone.

jon joe posted:I feel like the murder stuff could be better done if there were proper consequences for that stuff and characters couldn’t just unleash apocalypses against your entire clan because you farted on their dog. I'd honestly find the entire genre more fun if every single time some jackass on a power trip starts trashing the world, every clan goes out of their way to stomp on their dumb heads into the dirt. Not because of honor or reputation, but because they all are sick of having entire countries wiped out because some thin skinned manchild couldn't accept the fact that his fiance from another life is 11 years old and doesn't want to associate with the trillion year old man in a child's body.

Patrat posted:Regarding the crazy number crunching on Forge of Destiny and resulting drama, that kind of thing seems to be fairly important to generating interest and an active community on Sufficent Velocity. I write a fairly popular 'quest' there despite my mediocre literary skills and getting people debating over logistics and budgeting or whatever seems to be a noticeable draw. Mind linking us said Quest for those interested?

Patrat posted:The one I am running is here: Currently reading through, wow this is giving me the same vibes as reading those pulp novels of taking old naval battles and aristocracy and putting it all in the far future. It evokes memories of intricately detailed ships inked in pen. In other words I am really digging the aesthetic and the climb towards power.
