i prefer street-level character battles since they seem less tainted by that dimensional scaling stuff, but even they are tainted by people scaling characters too high. For instance, Geralt is wanked massively across all stats and it seems to be a result of some fans misinterpreting the novels.

For ex: certain fans believe this passage is proof that he moves faster than sound. particularly the "two metallic clangs merging into one" portion. They believe that he blocked both attacks before "sound could travel". To me, the author was just showing that Geralt blocked both attacks in a fast enough time span that the sounds of the sword clashes resonated with each other. Like im pretty sure you can replicate this sound effect by banging on two metal containers at relatively the same time and this doesn't involve faster-than-sound movement. Am I not reading it correctly? I feel like i'm being gaslighted to believe certain things sometimes and it makes my head hurt. Idk what do you guys think? this has been bothering me for a while now and this seems like a good opportunity to finally bring it up.
