    Writing How does a moral antagonist (3D) end up as a dark mirror of the protagonist?

    anyways, it's relatively hard (in my honest opinion) for me to apprehend that an antagonist can crumble under their own ideologies they held for so long, but I guess it does possible under very specific circumstances (and not being written sloppily just to get along with the "vibes" and shit)...

    Writing How does a moral antagonist (3D) end up as a dark mirror of the protagonist?

    see, this is where you misunderstood his character. He's NOT an antagonist. He's what is best described as a deuteragonist. Ozai IS an antagonist, even though in the first two book he was sitting in the background. And you're literally skipping over Azula, which is another antagonistic character...

    Writing How does a moral antagonist (3D) end up as a dark mirror of the protagonist?

    I know, and I'm not confusing anything. You should read whom I replied to, and read my reply. Yes, Zuko can be seemed villainous at the beginning, kept chasing Aang for what he believed that'll earn him Ozai's recognition. But overtime, that erodes as Iroh tempered him to become a better man...

    Writing How does a moral antagonist (3D) end up as a dark mirror of the protagonist?

    I can't help but to point out that Zuko is not inherently an antagonist. He's at best a foil and at worst a villain. Yes, he chases Aang all around the world, but he was telling himself that catching the Avatar is the least he can do to prove himself in front of his father, Ozai, until he...

    Discrepancy in your writing tastes and your reading tastes?

    I do both read and write nearly anything I know a lot, but I'll analyze what others do wrong and fix it in my story. And obviously tearing down LitRPG to its barebone

    What is the premise of your fiction in the form of a thesis question?

    The Horizon Crowns What's going to happen when the author doesn't abide with the common trope of modern fantasy in favor of a prestige drama and traditional epic fantasy solely focusing on the human's thoughts, ego and ingenuity in the world of infinite mana, and the realization where they...

    What’s Made You Drop a Book?

    It's a lot of personal preference, but I'd instantly drop it when in the first chapter, the character's dialogue was written in such an immature way that whatever seen in that chapter alone instantly will potentially cheapen the rest of the story itself. And I'm talking about swearing machine...

    How do I write LitRPG/leveling systems and still be consistent with the MC's leveling??

    generally this is a way to subvert/break the genre itself. Though, if you really want a consistent level up method, just tie it to a dungeon clear.

    Writing in First Person

    You will never escape it, because essentially, it's a way of telling a story in your protagonist's view. There'll be so many "I" and "my" across your writing phase. Unless you'd like to go Shakespearean and uses the phrase "this one" then go ahead

    Why Isekai?

    Anyways, if we're here really want to be critical about Isekai, then my proposal to it is to NOT tailor the worldbuilding just for the protagonist. We all have seen how a potentially good world turned into shit just because the protagonist is... "good". And certainly don't overly rely on cheap...

    Why Isekai?

    Honestly that's just me being incredibly desensitized by so many Isekai (that isn't Mushoku Tensei, Slime, KageJitsu or KonoSuba) that got those mandatory LitRPG that I can't help but point out one of the reason why Isekai got that bad rep. I guess it's something Korean novels and web comics...

    Why Isekai?

    Unfortunately, this mostly wasn't the case for most authors. The whole pioneer stuff is quickly getting overshadowed by the usual suspect which is POWER FANTASY! So yeah, good luck finding anything in Scribble Hub that fully contains exploring without flaunting their bloated stats Anyways...
