John Lee posted:It's so weird how there's a bunch of litRPG stories where Analyze or Scan or Information is secretly a super-OP skill that nobody takes because one would assume it's trash, and have these authors ever PLAYED an RPG? Knowing the abilities and weaknesses of your enemies is the key to victory, in real life or a game.

This isn't quite the right thread, but uh, has anything good ever been written on Royal Road, ever?

TheAardvark posted:There's just so many directions this could explore that would be fascinating and he threads the needle right through all of them the fourth book exists and the premise is "what happened to that one early-generation Bob that was lost and nobody ever heard from him despite expanding in all directions and having FTL communications going as soon as they did", which again, could end up interesting buuuuuuut

Was Menocht Loop the one where the protagonist became a necromancer of a sort that society mostly frowns on because his time loop started with him starving to death on a boat crewed entirely by skeletons? cause if so yeah I remember it really not holding up to what could have been an interesting prospect (the timeloop had like six "layers" and if he messed up the exit conditions on any of them he went back to the start of layer one, dehydrated on death skeleton boat in the middle of the ocean, but then oops all better all out ok most powerful dude in world let's go plot that nobody cares about)

Darth Walrus posted:Honestly, it's not that surprising if there are Monarchs even more antisocial than Northstrider. There's nothing about being one that actually requires you to be a public figure if you don't want to be, provided you can convince the other Monarchs to leave you alone and stop inviting you to their parties.

Right, he's "Gold" insofar as they gave him the gold badge and he was like "no other golds around? sure this'll do for now even though I'm way past it" and he's (presumably) still carrying it when Suriel undoes him, but yeah he's not actually gold, he's Monarch+

I'm hoping that Red Faith Remnant gets some actual screen time because I actually really ended up enjoying that son of a bitch this book.

I mean they just assumed that Red Faith had a vow that was good forever rather than literally to a specific group of people, right? Which is equally dumb, but still.

30.5 Days posted:I was reading dragoneye moon and it was going ok and then the author I guess got tired of the arc where she was a sentinel and just time skipped out halfway through. Looked up whether she just really wanted to do the next arc and everyone online said the series got worse after that so I figured it was time to bail.

Leng posted:A lot is self/indie pub but it is not completely so. Trad pub books are on there as well, but they are not required to be exclusive and the books that are on there depends on whatever deal Amazon cuts with the publisher. Gideon the Ninth was on KU for a while, as were a bunch of others.

Telsa Cola posted:Reading rising from the depths on RR (Standard several worlds get merged/bought up and if get high level enough you can opt out of being strip mined). actually this makes sense if you assume that the worlds that got merged had to have compatible food, even if the system running it was fudging the details our bioweapons would be compatible enough, okay complaint retracted
