    Task failed successful MCs

    It's not that he doesn't do the things he is praised for, just not always with the intention or in the way that would befit his title as HERO OF THE IMPERIUM (which you left out). It just so happens that his attempts to stay alive tend to also contribute majorly to the overall war. If the...

    Billionaires planning the to survive the apocalypse.

    Billionaires is what is causing the apocalypse. We've known for years, if not decades, that neither the environment nor the economy can sustain the current model indefinitely, but the ones with the resources to actually start changing that did nothing, or started deceiving the public about it...

    Explain reverse harem to me

    That's generally what harem as a tag or genre of fiction stands for, not only for Japanese stories and in contrast to historical harems, where the word is taken from. It's an affront to the very concept of using tags, that's what it is. Harem alone already conveys the idea that the protagonist...

    Explain reverse harem to me

    Well if we argue this way, we'll also have to remove the harem tag of at least 75% of all harem manga, because there's no sex in these either. Potentially more than 90% if we disqualify everything where the only sex is with the one girl the protagonist gets together in the end, if the manga...

    Need openion

    Is that really that different from a situation that doesn't have a D&D system in the background? Even without the rules, wounded (and exhausted) people wouldn't (and shouldn't) be able to just keep going indefinitely just because the plot demands it, otherwise there is a serious risk that the...

    The Most Evil Weapon in Fiction

    Exterminatus in general, but especially with Virus-Bombing: drop bombs filed with a hyperaggressive virus from orbit that turns all living matter into sludge and basically swamp gas watch while living being literally decay while they are still alive wait for it to spread over the whole planet...

    Writing Yoko Taro

    That's the thing. This is uncommon in game design, but nothing you brought up is some new invention for storytelling in general. People have been telling stories for thousands of years, so hardly anything truly new ever gets added to the toolkit.

    4th Wall Break in novels

    Do people really think 4th wall breaks started with video games? That in thousands of years humans have been telling stories, people had characters blatantly recognice that they are in a story only in the last couple of decades?

    I think I found a Great Alternative to Waifulabs

    Is it just me or do a lot of these images have anatomical problems? It would be really good if you need lots of body horror images and the style fits, though.

    Poll: Do You Believe in Luck?

    That's the thing, we can argue all day that something has a low chance of happening after the fact, but if it didn't happen we wouldn't discuss it. On the other hand it's not like there's only one '1 in a million' thing that could happen at any point, and we're not talking about these, because...

    Lewdest Fictional Religion

    Slaanesh is the god(dess) of excess, and this includes all things lewd (but also all things Hellraiser and other body horror elements). If you go down the lewd route, the more lewd things you do, the better, the more excessive you are lewding the better. Their daemons are shapeshifters and...
