Ladyships is correct. Shark meat, sold as āflakeā was extremely common in humble fishānāchips throughout Australia and New Zealand for ages. Less so now, but a LOT of Aussies have eaten shark at some point (quite possibly unaware of the fact)
Its technically not a death world if the home spiecies isn't actively struggling with the environment, but human tribalism means that humans are constantly getting into schisms with each other even in the space age. It is through fighting that the high ranking deathworlders took notice.
Ooh, thatās an interesting concept. So in MMO terms, Deathworlders are top-tier raiders, and they look at humanityās Raider IO score and scoffā¦ and then they find out that humanity are actually Grand Warlord-level PvP maniacs, instead?
Yes, and even if you accept that the use of fire has spread sideways from firearms in modern English, it would make zero sense for that to have happened in a pre-firearms world
Tower of Somnus is the closest thing that comes to mind, and it's a great series. The real world in it is very cyberpunk / shadowrun, with big megacorps running the world in the near future, and with people making heavy use of augmentation and implants. Humanity is approached by the galactic coalition of aliens, who find humanity not ready to join the wider universe, but gives humanity access to a game played by the various races of the universe in hopes that it will expose humanity to the greater universe and encourage them along the right path and prepare them to join eventually. The "game" is a fantasy mmo essentially with leveling, dungeons, etc. Humanity eventually learns that being a "player" has the side benefit of giving a portion of their in-game abilities to them in real life - increased physical abilities, magic, etc. It's one of my favorite series.
Tower of Somnus is definitely the closest I've read. There's lots of other cyberpunk and corporate dystopian settings, but Tower of Somnus has the added element of magic and psions, plus we get to actually see the duality of the corporate vs the underbelly/samurai existences. Plus the emphasis on hacking and information warfare. Very clear the author was heavily influenced, and has produced an excellent adaptation.
For the eugenics argument i can accept that a hypothetically perfect implementation would not have this issue. You could use the sterilization to prevent unwanted pregnancies and then you get the license after a short free course with no test at the end. That way there is little space for abuse by authorities and the people need to actually choose to have kids and get a bit of preparation. But any financial or cognitive requirements are just wildly unethical.
What I'm seeing here is not so much a "license to have kids", but a situation where all children are *deliberate and desired*. No accidents, no unintentional children, no children of rape, incest, one-night stands, or "forgotten birth control" (on behalf of either sex).
That movie predicted the future really well. As for the sterilization i think that should apply to guys that have several kids from different women and pay no child support for them. If they keep bringing kids to this world and refuse to support them then they should be sterilized.
Just be aware that the MC *appears* super-pathetic for the first few chapters. The *very rapidly* changes when he gets the "fantastic" idea that the manhwa draws its name from.
Jobbers are character that exist for the purpose of losing to make other characters look good. Typically they'll have a reputation as super powerful and unbeatable, and then they'll lose to the character you want to hype up.
I levelled everything. I used to main SMN hard, but I tried Reaper and I fell completely in love with the play style. The resource build/spend cycle took a bit to get my head around (you use three abilities to build a resource that lets you use an ability which unlocks two other abilities which build your second resourceā¦), but the rotation flows really smoothly, and the AoE rotation is also super smooth because it also follows through the exact same phases as the single-target rotation.
Tower of Somnus had a very interesting approach. The world setting is that the alien council made first contact with Earth in order to evaluate humanity for membership. And humanity failed dismally.
This author has some excellent other series, I highly recommend both Blessed Time and Tower of Somnus if you want fresh and interesting approaches to LitRPG.
We are talking about a fantasy game, not real life. The rules are different. For one: reincarnation is real, though not in the way the Dotharl believe. Two: souls are real, verifiable things. Three: we know very little about the Hotgo tribe beyond Mide. I doubt they were just chilling when the Dotharl decided to kill them all, as the Dotharl cherish battle, not killing.
How did you find this? I really want to see a normal video/article about it but I canāt find anything and it seems like OP pulled the title out of thin air
I had a quick look around, you may have more luck searching under the term āSeer Tsokhikhā. Most of the articles Iāve found are in Russian, though (I think? I donāt speak Russianā¦)
illustrious is right: because she is retiring! Iām having difficulty updating the post. So sorry!
I was hoping that was the case - that āin the fieldā meant āas a working dogā, rather than ālast day outsideā
I love the group shot. Really cements her identity š
Now I'm more confused....what is flake in your context?
Ladyships is correct. Shark meat, sold as āflakeā was extremely common in humble fishānāchips throughout Australia and New Zealand for ages. Less so now, but a LOT of Aussies have eaten shark at some point (quite possibly unaware of the fact)
Can anyone tell me the synopsis?
ā¦ complicated. Forā¦ reasons, every single human on earth was isekaiād to various otherworlds. Except one.
Congrats! I spruiked it over on the LitRPG Facebook page too.
With most of the introductions over with, i roam about the house till its time for me to go.
She shouldn't have hunted alone at night. It may have taken you years to find her, but even a soundproofed room can't hide her scent forever...
Yeah the crazy one for me is that it turned off mount animations as well I donāt know why but I just wasnāt expecting it
I have a pair of macros to toggle it on and off easily. I only turn it off for 8-man and higher
post macro, i want
Yeah, they're really simple, but I figured why not?

Seriously, do they think *we* don't *also* know it's our weak point?
Also, you don't "fire" a bow. It's not a firearm. You nock an arrow, draw, and then you loose it.
Yes, and even if you accept that the use of fire has spread sideways from firearms in modern English, it would make zero sense for that to have happened in a pre-firearms world
This reminds me - if you are trying to shoot something, the max distance you can see, with the curvature of earth is like max 30km - not 200km š
Very true (with the obvious caveats of altitude)!

are you for real? did you just say that english and american are different languages?
Are you saying they're not? :P
american english and english english arent different languages, just dialects. Like saying kiwis and aussies speak different languages
The difference between languages and dialects is not so clear cut

Similarly, women who have children by multiple men and can't support them properly herself.

America is q dystopia lmfao. Imagine selling your body just to be able to get an education. What a shithole.
Imagine being a guy and not even having this option...
two guys showing up to a party in the same dress
Itād have to be a pretty big dress to fit both of themā¦
Oh hell yeah. This arc was brutal, and magnificent, and hit the reader emotionally like a semi going 75 on a dark nightā¦
I think they said make a suitable ending not make the ending better
I stand by "better" (in the sense of "well-written and satisfying"), Doesn't mean the same as "happy"
However, it wouldn't have sounded so bad if she said she only had sex once a week.
āOnly had sex once a weekā is very different to āHad sex with a different guy every weekā
Jobbers are character that exist for the purpose of losing to make other characters look good. Typically they'll have a reputation as super powerful and unbeatable, and then they'll lose to the character you want to hype up.
So jobbers are like the Worf effect?

Maybe you should put her IN the bus. It's safer.
ā¦ ok, that was hilarious š¤£

Tumblr buzzwords? Please, that's just sad.
Tumblrā¦ my god, you donāt even recognise the name one of the fundamental logical fallacies.
