WAT?????
New Ambience Opening...guaranteed tomindwipe youentertain you!
Oh my God the edge! rofl:The world is a cruel place. That's why I make my worlds even worse.
So, on a whim, I decided to look at Hackyuu's profile page on FFN. This is what I found.
Oh my God the edge! rofl:
Again, this is the guy who thinks shitting out 2.5 million words and constant updates means his story's better than GG, because he's going strong while I've lost my way.
While I have a certain love hate relationship with GG, it and KCQ seem to have had a bigger impact on the english kancolle fandom than Ambulance lol.

Came from the Edgelords thread. Also like bombed De3ta on SB.
The author of Ambience is a no-good, lazy, incompetent, dishonest SOB.

Who are the biggest fictional Edgelords?I think that's a given, what i meant was what do you mean by this:
I don't recall Edgelord having a thread here for a long time, and what do you mean bombed De3ta on SB?
The original author is a crack/comedy/slice of life author who is stronger with characterisation than worldbuilding. This can be problematic in a story that is worldbuilding heavy.
If you don't know where you're going, better to stop and plan out your route instead of putting pedal to the metal and charging into the great unknown.
On the other hand, I'm very love-hate towards GG so my perspective is quite biased.
GG had problems, but DesDiv 6's lack of combat rep was not one of them.Personally, the most notable problem is the disparate capabilities of the characters chosen. On one side we have ship-girls like Enterprise and San Diego, notable for their impressive performance during the war. If you don't know what Enterprise did, you should look it up, the list is to long to include here. One of the largest complaints of the crew of San Diego was that they never got shore leave because they were to good at their job and nobody could ever damage her.
On the other we have ship-girls like Tenryuu and Hibiki, who just aren't. Hibiki even has an in-game line which mentions that the secret to her success was the lucky timing of her repairs. Tenryuu was out of date when the war started and had been relegated to a training unit. Her captain had to beg to even get combat assignments. She sank escorting a convoy when she was misidentified as one of the transports in the convoy.
While you could fix this by substituting more notable Japanese ship-girls (desdiv 16 comes to mind) or less notable American ship-girls, changing half the cast is such a fundamental change it's not clear you're even telling the same story. I'm pretty sure this is what @sasahara17 meant when he worried that his lead was coming across as a Mary Sue.
TL;DR
I've been on a Hyperdimension Neptunia kick recently, soooo...
What would happen if Neptune met Damon?

"Of fucking course I'm askin' you, bitch!" Damon suddenly roars, his heightened voice pounding through the cafeteria. The elderly patients enjoying their evening coffee glance over in Damon's direction, murmuring about how noisy young people are. "You're one 'a the ones who decided to build the girls as these ship girls that make every degenerate fuckin' human male wanna fuckin' bang 'em like there's no tomorrow! Even motherfuckin' Blackwood wanted to shag up my whole fucking fleet, never mind the British fleet, too! What does that say, huh?!"
"And you're really blamin' me for that? Really, kid?" Sanford retorts in a dangerously low voice.
"Who the fuck else do I got to blame then, huh?" Damon takes a dangerous step of his own to confront his godfather.
These battle androids....cyborgs? needs reproductive capabilities because....? Maybe they were planned to be breeding sows (after their battle"usability" is done) from the beginning, what the fuck, Sanford.[...] Damon raises his hands up to control the conversation. "Answer me this first: can ship girls reproduce or not? Or is Shoukaku's case just a one-time fluke?"
Sanford gives him a strange look. "What the hell are you talkin' about? Of course ship girls can reproduce, their anatomies are based on human anatomies, you dumbfuck," he retorts. "It's shouldn't come as a surprise at all that Shoukaku was able to conceive and give birth, if that's what you're talking about."
"No, not just that, you ass. Then if that's the case, then why haven't there been any other cases of ship girl pregnancies in the fleet? I don't mean to bring up bad memories, but Kisaragi, Nagato, and, and...who else...am I missing someone..."
No comment."If they were, we'd'a known right away through the operating chambers, so don't worry about anyone hiding a pregnancy from us," Sanford dismisses Damon's concern. "We knew that there might always be a possibility that our girls may be subjected to an unfortunate incident at some point or another, so we've programmed their bodies to be able to control their ovulation cycles specifically to prevent unwanted pregnancies. That's what Nagato was doing when we found her in Charlotte, and maybe Suzuya was doin' the same thing subconsciously. Kisaragi didn't get pregnant 'cause they found her when she wasn't even reactivated, remember? So there was no way she could'a gotten knocked up. And even then, in case an unwanted pregnancy does happen, because maybe a ship girl forgot to cancel an ovulation cycle or something like that, they'll immediately know if their eggs've been fertilized and have the option to abort the fetus within four weeks of conception. But once they get past four weeks, they can't abort anymore, and the fetus keeps growin'."
"And how long does a ship girl pregnancy last? Is it any different than a normal human pregnancy?"
"It should still be normal at nine months."
"Just like my Japanese animes!!""So wait, if - if a ship girl gives birth to a child, is that child automatically considered a ship girl?" Damon asks, realizing he should've asked a question like this sooner. "And what if the kid's a boy? What, are they...ship 'boys'?"
"Nope. We'd already tried theoretical offspring production with the ship girls, but it turns out all male offspring that ship girls produce won't be genetically viable for standard ship girl duty; only the females, oddly enough, have the proper genetics to be ship girls, so 'ship boys' is an impossibility."
"Well, shit, so much for meninism. Is this like Infinite Stratos all over again or what?"
"Something like it."
It's been a while since I read anything GG, but I remember one of the complaints was unequal retribution based off of WW2 activity?The original author is a crack/comedy/slice of life author who is stronger with characterisation than worldbuilding. This can be problematic in a story that is worldbuilding heavy.
Let me put it this way: everytime sasahara17 asked a worldbuilding question or tried to worldbuild he basically kept breaking GG's setting and SoD. :/
Then you've got omakes that are jarring and don't fit the tone of the story, and then GG being written to advance a specific agenda, and the author wanting to do unreliable narrator as a thing without actually setting that up properly... anyway GG is on hiatus for a reason. If you don't know where you're going, better to stop and plan out your route instead of putting pedal to the metal and charging into the great unknown.
On the other hand, I'm very love-hate towards GG so my perspective is quite biased.
