A Storyteller’s Point of View on Final Fantasy XIV

[Boblawblah]

for an author, your point of views aren't exactly enthralling. I was sort of hoping you'd be telling us YOUR characters story as you experienced it, not just a "this is weird", "oh, she did something stupid there".

come on, write!

I don't particularly think they quite know how to give points of view like that. Skimming through their work, it feels like they lack a certain ability to actually dig in to these sorts of things.

Also they write like a mid-tier 2000-kudos ao3 fanfic author from 2012 - the kind that says "No flames!" in the beginning author's note.

I didnt want to be mean, cause my god, Im not a writer myself.
But Ive done enough RP to kind of notice the writing style. Its very distinct from other Books I have Read.
Its not my cup of Tea. Maybe some day Ill find my ideal Furry Writer

You dont have to be a chef to notice when something tastes crappy

That's my take on it, anyhow

I like to use a similar analogy. I don't need to be a helicopter pilot to know it's not suppose to swan dive into the ground and explode.

True, but if that Swan Dive breaks the surface of the water with as little splash as possible, and the Helicopter doesnt explode or kill the Pilot, we might take home the Gold!

AT the very least Honorable Mention.

That would actually be an interesting thread to make. "What is your WoL's back story/headcanon?" or something.
