Well, I mean, Legend wouldnt have a shotgun talk with him in the first place... Though now I wonder who would do a shotgun talk on Apeiron's behalf? Tybalt as a concerned cousin? Or literally someone from Olympus shows up?
Thanks everyone!
Here in chapter 34/35 you begin to notice the repetitive powers, which is normal since there is no chapter in which the mc does not obtain at least 1 or more powers and of course, what new power can he obtain when he already has several powers that push his creations beyond perfection with the simplest materials of which he already have unlimited? The only branch that can be expanded is magic and magitek and that does not include alchemy. From now on I can only imagine abilities with vague descriptions about how it is better because it is better and that's it, in the end humans cannot imagine something better than perfect because in principle perfect is that there is no longer anything better, so it will basically boil down to designating creations with titles like: divine, heroic, mythical... and vague descriptions about how the creation is beyond perfection in an indescribable way etc... in the end we readers will be left with that it is better than before and that's it. which leaves me with intrigue since the plot has only been 1 and a half weeks with his powers and from what I understand I still have about 60/70 accumulated chapters left, I will continue reading with curiosity about how this will develop, if it continues with the mentioned trend or the author will surprise me with something that I have not anticipated (so far I have liked the novel a lot) at least the fairies thing has been more interesting than another skill that improves their work beyond perfection automatically, although the result has been the same.
I thought it was pretty clear that the Minecraft mod where the perk came from was an obvious FMA reference? It even has "Philosopher's Stone" in the perk description.
Frankly, if you want to comment on chapters from a long time ago, post them on the AO3 instead. This is a thread and bringing up old chapters kind of goes against that, especially since very few would want to engage on such dead horse subjects.
Isn't that just because it's literally only a couple days before the next update is scheduled? It's normal for discussions to peak and fall according to the update schedule - but no matter what, I still think it's weird to comment on an ongoing thread, no matter how active, about chapters that were literally years ago, and then when told by other posters in the thread to not do that, still do it again later on while admitting that commenting wouldn't really do anything and it was more them just recording their thoughts. I understand they don't mean any harm, but it's just very odd to say the least especially when their posts are so close to bringing up some very, very tiresome topics again (namely pacing, OPness, the usual dead horses).
Given my own posting behavior, it should be clear that I don't see any problem with taking advantage of a lull in the conversation to discuss chapters from more than a year ago. My advice for @lalaton to get better discourse from the thread is to discuss more specific scenes instead of directing most of the verbiage to general impressions of a multi-chapter span.
At any stage of the story, there are powers that aren't immediately useful for their primary purpose. Early on, Joe's missing the necessary materials (e.g. cybertonium) or supporting abilities (e.g. safely handling life fibers). Once he has a solid foundation, there's less of that and more redundancy with existing powers, although Roustabout tries pretty hard to make overlapping powers support rather than replace each other. Once some of the constellations run out... well, you'll see when you get there.
AO3 for a possible reply from Lord, that's how we got the majority of our WOGs, so more comments are always appreciated.
It's like taking the best parts of the Gamer fics and mashing them into one brilliant collage of escalation.
Taylor would absolutely decimate the hell out of the Travelers and Coil with an unlocked omnitool on hand. Even Noelle would perish under an unleashed Taylor.
That's just with her equipment on hand, apart from the staff and crabs are there any other default items that would be absolutely terrifying with Taylor?
Probably not unless Joe also throws in a Key Crest to shield Taylor from the negative side effects. Remember, even now Joe's pretty hesitant on using call beads for messing with passenger connections and it's the main driver for his expeditions into Passenger Space.
Maybe if the Final Frontier makes contact with Queenie directly?
With Arcane Craft and his Noble Phantasm Joe can turn off Alchemy which is going to be hilarious against Bastard son.
Keep in mind that Khepri was a crippled expression of Queens ability; Ziz needed to have Amy do the work instead of Riley who would have actually made that shit work properly.
Joe already made that portal device and figured out that Taylor's ability was limited only by range when he contemplated using portals to extend it.
HYPE!
I am pretty sure this is the Teeth vs. the E88, maybe with some heroes, given that some left Garment's fundraiser recently.
