It's been more than a rl year, and we're less than halfway through Green.
I'm not complaining about the pacing. Even if I've pulled back from the mechanics discussions, I'm still enjoying the story as it's going. But with fiction, my experience is to not count on things beyond one year and just enjoy the ride while it lasts.
Maybe that's just my experience as an OG ASOIAF fan speaking.

Eh. This series started in January 2017 so I have more faith that this will keep chugging along for a looong time still.

There's plenty of stories, quests or otherwise, that last a lot more than a IRL handful of years. i'm following stories that started in 2013 on SB and even in 2011 on FF.net, stories that even today continue to have updates.
Heck, there's even one from 2009 (though i only caught it a few years later).

Eh, I get ya. I am doing the oppossite here, channeling my experience with One Piece, Homestuck, Brandon Sanderson and other marathon runners.
It helps me get in the mentality that most xianxia are humongous.
... Are they good? If they are 88% as good as this quest, could you dm me their titles?

We've already gone from weekly turns, to monthly turns. We could go to 3-4 monthly turns, or even yearly turns as we approach cyan and higher.

DM me too, please? Or just make a post, since it seems to be a reasonably popular inquiry?

I was referring to stories that are particularly old and still alive, not on their quality or relevance to this quest. So if you want something similar to Yrsillar's little xianxia gem you'll be disappointed.
Anyway, these stories are:
Mother of Learning (2011, original, fantasy, groundhog day type),
Xander Quest (2013, massive crossover starting with Zelda and Buffy)
Dungeon Keeper Ami (2009, Sailor Moon/Dungeon Keeper)
Of the three i'd only really recommend MoL, as Xander is above-average and updated (almost always) daily but that's about it, and DKA suffers from being a style that seen a lot of development in the last handful of years. So it was nicely original at the time, but not so much today.

Oh yeah, Mother of Learning is awesome. It's annoying that I'm caught up on it though, the updates are so infrequent.

The final MoL update should be posted this Sunday, so it's a good time to get into it if you haven't read it before

unlikely I think. After all, said turtle still despises the Sect and how it is used as a powersource.
Really, I am probably more interested in the other characters and how they are dealing with this development.

DKA is alright and MoL is fantastic but your right there's another story on RR called Dungeon Heart that's by far superior in that genre, can't comment on the other one never watched the show.
Currently some of my favorite fictions are Brennus, The Zombie Knight, and Super Minion.
Their all Superhero worlds and I have to blame wild bow for that, the last one is very different though if anybody has watched The Thing and imagined him-her-it? in that setting.

Sooooooo I was rereading Forge and a thought struck me, some people have put forward that Han Jian might have been the High Noble background like Ji Rong was the Prisoner and Gan the Soldier but.........
Doesn't the bolded sound more like Fan Yu instead? We really dodged a bullet there if so.

Eh, if we were Fan Yu/ Fan Yu by another name, we wouldn't play him like Fan Yu. We'd have steered him into something completely different, unrecognizable as Fan Yu.
At the very least, we'd have 1) solved the classism problem 2) solved the elemental mismatch problems and 3) spreadsheeted away his inefficiency, which would indirectly 4) have fixed his inferiority problem. And that is assuming we got carbon copy Fan Yu at character creation, rather that someone quite different due to our other character creation choices.

Ehhhhhh remember a big issue for why she didnt like fan yu is he is unmotivated , and lazy. We would not be. That being said her being in love with han jian and han jian being a actual decent guy, we prob would have found a way to cancel the marriage, or should she still have treated us awfully, would have found a new waifu stat.

like that Suyin gal who has that conveniently comprehensive fragment of a possible offensive healing art.

could be Xuan Shi, the ducal scion who spends all his time reading adventure novels in the library. Makes more sense than Han Jian who is lower ranked, and the heir of the heir to his clan.
