    Warfare in Rings of Power Season 1

    Here is a video that gives some information on what a slightly larger scale battle would likely be like. Now it doesn't have the tactics from the period, but it is a battle with 300 full armored men at arms. Obviously it goes without the death and many of the other gruesome things with war...

    Unredeemable Tropes

    I mean, it was a soul for a soul and he was present to see and feel the loss. I suppose the stone isn't too strict as long as it hits the main requirements.

    Unredeemable Tropes

    Disagree with this. Hawkeyes family was already dusted. Black Widow was the thing he loved most that was left. And Gamora counted as well, as the requirement was a soul for a soul and one you had to love. Thanos loved Gamora. It didn't have to be something he loved the most.

    Yeah. The DLC stuff is end game level hard.

    Protagonist strenght poll

    All depends on the story you are telling. Typically I prefer using E. But none of those are wrong.

    Ask me about swords.

    That’s partially why I like buhurt so much. Such a big variety of weapons, tactics, and skills used. I like being able to kick and judo throw a guy while using a sword and buckler. I also like being able to punch people, I’m pretty good at that with my Muay Thai and boxing training.

    Clothing

    Agreed here. What do most of the folks wear where he is traveling? You wouldn’t want to dress to stand out, so he wouldn’t want to dress like someone who is rich, unless he is mingling with nobles or rich people. But also you wouldn’t want to dress as someone dark and mysterious if most people...

    Why do you like Harry Potter?

    They were fun and creative stories. I was entertained and enjoyed reading them and watching the movies.

    Dream significance

    I intend on using them for mine. Particularly for a certain character in the story. Not so much as inspiration or or divine messages. But more cryptic. A bit of foreshadowing. And a surreal nature that dreams tend to have. I can’t stand when dreams in TV or movies end up so… normal. My dreams...

    Women dressing as men trope - what do we all think about it?

    Great examples. There are plenty of other examples too. Look at the Witcher 3 Yennefer. She has technically 3 outfits in the game, her primary one she wears is this. Yennefer of Vengerberg

    Characters getting injured or hurt, how much is too much?

    I do agree with not fixating on them.

    Characters getting injured or hurt, how much is too much?

    Erasing tropes wouldn't erase the obvious trends though. In the regard specifically to overused tropes, people would just say cliches, and for tropes used more often for a time or genre, it would just be trends. We ultimately cannot escape that humans tend to think alike. If you read and watch...

    Grammar.. Grrrr so annoying

    Yeah. My wife is an English teacher and grammar is one of her pet peeves. I don’t let her read anything I have written. And that even goes for letters to people. She could be my biggest help, but she is instead horrifically brutal. My grammar is kinda bad, but not that far off from the average...

    Why Do People Suddenly Hate Superheroes

    There is a lot of truth to this as well. Look at the Fast and Furious movies. Their box office numbers and hype grew and peaked at 7, and it has been going downhill since. It’s still doing well enough to keep making them, but for how long. (The jumped the shark for me after part 5, now they are...
