Been wanting to return, and trying, but I can't complete any scripts, don't like any of them. Pretty demotivating, don't know if I should try and post something just to post something, or keep trying to do something I think is good. Got no idea. 🫥
@TheBrokenRonin The novels are very good. Also the routes are just "if stories". Just side stories the author made about "what if Subaru did this instead" in moments where big choices were made. Except the butterfly dream, or "lust if" which just sucks.
@J0hnnyStar If you can swap two places in a map and nothing about that places culture or people change, you're missing the biggest point of world building, creating a world that sprawls organically. Instead you're just adding places in plot convenient locations.

@J0hnnyStar I have a hot take on this, as someone who thinks Naruto's world building is just ok, OPs world building is just ok too.
It's just a bunch of randomly placed islands with little to no meaning or cultural significance to how close or far they are from one another. (1/2)
@J0hnnyStar I'm gonna use that one when I get back to this 🤣
Worst is when they write an essay in your comments based on the title and thumbnail. Only to then do it all again. I am not exaggerating.
Sorry for the rant, had some free time, so I felt like giving a counter argument, everyone should enjoy and perceive art through whatever lens they want, this is just my side of it, if you've read so far drink some water, it's good for you.
I see it the other way around. I find it insincere to call something the best, just because it's your favorite, or vice versa, I'm not implying objectivity in calling something the best, both are subjective evaluations, but of different things... [1/6]
Ratings should be personal, but so many people who say things like "nothing can be a 10/10 because nothing is perfect" and "my favorites are objectively mid" have this specific way of interacting with art that comes off as insincere to me.
I find the separation of how you see a piece of art on its own, and how you see yourself in it, to be the more sincere approach. Although this is not an argument for objectivity, just for a distinction of what I personally see as two different subjective evaluations. [6/6]
