For writers; what does your main character enjoy eating? 🥣
English
@byMorganWright Like how else are you supposed to get into the heart of your characters?
English
Saw someone hating on first person POV again.
Hmm, tbh, I love first person (both reading & writing in it)🤷♀️. I feel like most people I know enjoy it too🤔👀. First person & third person limited are my favorites because of the closeness both provide. Thoughts??

@evandi13579b @TheHistoryGuy07 People ask stupid questions like that should be silenced
English
@TheHistoryGuy07 Why does the "loving" "God" allow Satan to deceive people?
English
Satan doesn’t want to torture anyone, he just wants to take as many as he can with him. This is why he’s pulling all the stops, including the deception of atheism. The Bible doesn’t talk about torture, but torment which is self-inflicted as a result of one’s own bad choices.

Atheists: We know the Bible better than Christians. Also, atheists...

@silent7_star I don't think anybody's actually trash talking The Slice of Life stuff.. are they?
English
@rebekah_creates Victor, hero of Cruisin Another World in My Cadillac, is a Christian. He protects those he loves
English
Today, the talk is of tropes. Here’s what I’m over reading: 🧵
Religious people and/or the churches are always secretly evil or completely out of touch (at best).
You know who some of my favorite people are? My Christian community, filled with incredible humans.
English
@PlotWeaver @rebekah_creates Mine is also a Christian uncertain denomination still haven't quoted light shining in the darkness yet, but he's getting there
English
My MC is openly Christian and that occasionally shows on the page.
She prays when she wants to reject the call to adventure, and she talks with her minister after the midpoint escalation.
Somehow, this moves the story forward instead of feeling preachy.
Could that be because I'm an actual Christian instead of just laughing at people with faith?
English
@rebekah_creates That's why I made sure that the Church of St Luca is 100% corruption free. The paladin character is a righteous and honorable man as well
English
@RevIsaacWirtz Separate denominations of Christianity are not multiple religions, for one thing
English
I mean... He does spend an awful lot of ink describing specifically which God is the real one to the contrast of all the false ones.
That's... that's really kinda a defining trait.
English
@MatthewTanous @jmgwritten Like Devil worshiping Cult of despair fetishists?
English
@jmgwritten How do you feel about “Openly Evil Church”?
English
So long as we're talking Tropes, if I never see another "Secretly Evil Church" it will be too soon
It's not even a bad trope, its just been beaten into the center of the earth by some of the cringiest people imaginable
English
@jmgwritten I can assure you that the Church of St Luca is not evil. Let's just saying Victor knows Luca by another name.. he just doesn't realize that yet
English
Dumb comparison aside how is there that many people playing this it cannot be that good

🚨Palworld just achieved what Pokémon has not managed in years 855,525 concurrent players on Steam this Sunday Second most played game on the entire platform behind only Counter-Strike 2 Pokémon has been the biggest gaming franchise in the world for 30 years And a small indie studio from Japan just outpaced it with a survival game about creatures with guns What do you think Pokémon needs to do to compete with this?
English
@TiltAtGiants I had one redditor on the Cadillac subreddit accuse me of using AI to write probably because of the cover. Stupid people going to make stupid assumptions
English
AI accusations are merely a tool of attacking people now.
Twice people have tried to accuse me of using AI to write.
Then I send them pictures of my handwritten drafts, and they block me or delete their comment.
Maybe read the book and then share a thought?
🤷♂️

@JohnAnthonyMD Pokémon peaked in black and white and it was all downhill from there
English
The Palworld vs Pokemon debate is getting muddied. It ultimately comes down to this:
Pokemon has failed to innovate in any way for 20+ years. They could have branched any number of ways and had massive success, but they didn't.
Palworld explored just one branch and blew up.

>Nintendo sues pocket pair
>files for patents DURING lawsuit and attempts to retroactively sue them
>tries to patent catching a creature in a ball
>tries to patent riding creatures
>tries to bankrupt studio through drawn out legal battles.
That's a whole lot of nothing.

Pokemon doesn’t have to do anything lol it’s THE largest entertainment franchise Gen 10 is coming out next year and that will be extremely successful
English
@UltraBall5 @SephBoss @Nope2112 @anongoat360 @Yoshiware2 Dude they tried to patent riding on mounts! You are either a shill or the biggest idiot on the planet. Patents on game mechanics should not be allowed any person who says otherwise needs to be thrown in prison.
English
@SephBoss @Nope2112 @anongoat360 @steakdriven @Yoshiware2 The patents aren’t generic. They’re very specific and detailed. “The media” would rather summarize an abstract from the actual document for clicks and views instead of detail the 20+ page patents. People cry about semantics and “legalese” but those documents are far from generic.
English
Yeah Nintendo didn’t have to do anything. They didn’t feel threatened by Palworld one bit lol

@SephBoss @Nope2112 @anongoat360 @steakdriven @Yoshiware2 That was never the goal. That what you deranged internet folk wanted. Can we stop with lies and bs?
English
@SephBoss @UltraBall5 @Nope2112 @anongoat360 @Yoshiware2 Because they are evil! Duh! Ontologically demonically evil.
English
@UltraBall5 @Nope2112 @anongoat360 @steakdriven @Yoshiware2 Then why go through the effort in the first place? Why do those generic ass patents in the first place? Think logically.
English
@TheBrotatoPatch @anongoat360 @Yoshiware2 I can confirm that ball throwing and riding Pals is already back.
English
@anongoat360 @steakdriven @Yoshiware2 They didnt have to remove anything. They removed them so they could continue development without the lawsuit effecting the game. Once the lawsuit is over, if they win, I imagine it'll be added back in.
