Entry 3

I'm about to complain about something only someone who has a lot of knowledge with RPGs would point out. In MMOs you resurrect at a graveyard, in other RPGs you return to a save point. I guess it could be like demon souls or something like that, but everything in the story from the team name cliche, FF references, etc screams generic JRPG.

I do feel like the entire thing is more or less a very long rant without any real content. 90% of it is vlad complaining about the heroes and how stupid they are, while at the end he just wants to kill things. Also, if he's burning dying flesh, I'm not really sure how that's working out. If they were all dead they'd be sent back to the graveyard.

There is very little wrong I can point out technically, but I just found it kind of boring and one dimensional. If I didn't have experience with RPGs this story would be completely lost on me. I'd consider that a little too niche an audience.


Entry 4 is going to take me a while to get the write up for, so It'll be up tomorrow.

Okay... i guess I should stop being lazy

Entry 1

The most obvious problem is the continuity error with the sun. It's probably the one you mentioned in your earlier post. Next I'd say to avoid redundancy. For example, you already told us he stopped at his apartment, there is no reason to tell us he's no longer moving inhumanly fast. And.. "His speed increased, faster and faster, as seconds..." can be changed/shored to "Time passed at an increasingly accelerated rate" or something similar.

"I smiled. Today was almost perfect. Everything is going according to plan. Now if only it wasn’t a cloudy day." The last sentence seems like a complete mood swap. At first he feels like it's almost the best day ever, then he's complaining.

Now, the narrator keeps talking about his "plans" and how things are important or not important to them. The thing is, I don't know what his plans are. There is an obvious time travel type thing, but it's not even clear how that's really happening either. At times I'm led to believe it's really happening, and sometimes I think it's all in his head because I read it as the narrator being somewhat of a psychopath.

A major issue is your constantly changing tenses. A tip is to use third person (almost every fiction writing instructor I've had has recommended this. TBH I'm not I'm not exactly sure why, but it seems easier to get a good flow and stay within your tense restrictions while using it. If you're wondering why all my entries are in first person, that's because I have a lot of experience with screen writing.)

An issue I personally had was the narrators little "inputs" that were jotted throughout. They just seem tacked on and don't add anything.

This could have been interesting in a Minority Report type way, but nothing is clearly laid out for the reader, I'm not even sure if the narrator is a good or bad guy.

Batman: TAS is a much better show than Justice League. Actually, Batman Beyond is a better show than Justice League, but it also aired smack in the middle of both decades and it's hard to really place it on a list. I can't call Disney shell outs like Tale Spin/Chip and Dale as good a Tiny Toons either. IMO they don't even really feel like a 90s toon.

If you're wondering the shows I cut from teh 90s list are: Eek The Cat, Darkwing Duck, X-Men, Pepper Ann, and Bobby's World.

From the 00s I cut Rocket Power, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Camp Lazlo, Sponge Bob, and Megas XLR.

Yes the 90s had a lot more original content with daily new episodes, and fast season turnovers, but those days are over. But I'd say the big things are the emergence of Pokemon and the anime wave at the end of the 90s early 00s which pretty much started to fill in more and more slots.

I just checked and the show is a couple of episodes longer than I thought it was, so the next episode is actually pretty good.

The problem with the show isint that any individual episode is bad, but the fact that each episode basically adds a new plot hole. To get an idea how fast it moves, they basically cover 3 complete arcs in the 12 episodes.
