    Swords and stuff.

    How can you overuse spears, they were the battlefield weapon, absolutely fundamental. They are tough to just carry around and use for things like self defense. Axes and maces are specialized weapons, and difficult to carry/draw quickly. Bludgeoning weapons like maces are specifically...

    Shower thoughts on isekai magic systems.

    Skills usually level by using them in litrpgs, which is how irl skill works, the difference being irl skill, there's usually a cap where you can't get much better at a noticeable rate without instruction, whereas with litrpgs that's often not considered. It is sometimes. But anyway, Skills...

    Language in Fantasy when lacking the origin behind the word.

    You're writing your story for people to read, so you should use language that people understand. There's not much good from changing what words you use to communicate distance, and if a world has animals that are direct or practically direct equivalents of real-world animals, you should just use...

    Which mistakes do you know that almost caused crisis on earth

    Are you referring to the start of the human race? Cause that's more owed to fire, and specifically cooking than tool use. I mean, tool use was kinda a prerequisite, but still. Plenty of species, including primates, use tools, only we are causing global crises. I personally find it funny how the...

    I need the most pretentious name ever.

    Why stop there? You should make sure every letter of the alphabet is represented starting a name!

    I need the most pretentious name ever.

    Kaleitheliyon. Couldn't be my oc self-insert god-devil (oh, the chuuni stereotyping!) character. Nope. You're crazy. I can't settle on the spelling for the end part, I know what it sounds like, but don't like the look of any permutation. -liyon? -leon? -lion? -llion? -laeon?

    What exactly makes a LitRPG?

    Agreed. Side note, I personally like it when the MC's status screen is in a collapsed box, like a spoiler box, at the end of chapters where it isn't shown, just in case I have a question about something, so I don't have to hunt through past chapters trying to find the last time it was shown...

    What do you think is the strongest emotion in human?

    Less the perspective of a vampire, and more, someone who has seen vampires defeated. Perhaps that's a biased pool though, and vampires that are prideful are more likely to be defeated than envious ones, resulting in a skewed statistic.

    What do you think is the strongest emotion in human?

    Oh not only you, just that the others are more common. I would personally choose dragon over any of the ones I mentioned, but ultimately I believe demon suits me even more than dragon. Though given the choice, it's ultimately hard to say which I would choose, and it highly depends on the lore of...

    What do you think is the strongest emotion in human?

    Naturally, the ones that are directly responsible for the survival and propagation of the human race will be the strongest, emotions exist to incentivise useful behaviors. The primary ones are fear, aggression, and lust. Fear, to escape danger. Aggression, to eliminate danger and seize...

    I just noticed making Tragedy is easier than Romance

    You pinged me with that, I don't think you meant to.

    I just noticed making Tragedy is easier than Romance

    Yup. I mean, making tragedy good is still not easy, but making good romance is really hard because you have to have a really good understanding of chemistry and or it comes off really forced, where as tragedy, it's simple in principle, bad thing happens, and that hurts someone emotionally. Maybe...

    I’m glad I freed myself from micro transaction mobile games.

    I mean, I hate the games described by OP, but not gacha games like Honkai (Star Rail. Impact's stamina system is BS for the same reason the games OP described are. Why would I want to play a game that tells me I can't play it until I'm done waiting for an unnecessary and arbitrarily long period...

    Bored Working The Overnight Shift: Baked A Cake

    In the case of white, it's less like adding a color, and more like... adding a finely ground up mirror. It reflects the light that hits it, but not uniformly, so it scatters in every direction and mixes back into white light. Cause white is actually every color, and black is the absence of...

    Bored Working The Overnight Shift: Baked A Cake

    Well not a color, but I know titanium is used to make things white. At least in paint, might be different in food products. Or not, wouldn't surprise me if they're putting sus stuff in there to make it colored. Whatever makes it marketable ?‍♀️.

    Ah yes, that too. It numbs the taste buds and makes them less sensitive to impurities
