I'm looking to expand my horizon to include more than mostly otome game stories and stories with popular anime adaptions, outside of which I've only dabbled in.

Some of my favourites are:

1. A Stepmother's Marchen
2. Blinded by the Setting Sun
3. My lv999 Love for Yamada-kun

Some enjoyable stories:

• Blue Box
• Villainess have more fun
• My Happy Marriage

Some of my dislikes:

• Horimiya (feels like a friendship to me)
• Leads that look or are very young and/or immature
• Pretty much all highschool stories (for the reasons stated above, and I find highschool to be a boring setting)
• Long lasting unrealistic misunderstandings/beliefs (Like The Most Heretical Last Boss Queen

I've been missing some variety in terms of class/path of the protagonists in the stories I've read.

Please recommend stories with interesting protagonists that do not:

1. use fists, claws, swords, daggers or axes as their primary means of combat
2. use generalistic arcane or elemental magic as their primary means of combat
3. have their path defined by the concepts of shadow, destruction, devouring, or oblivion
4. become a jack-of-all-trades

Some good ongoing stories I'm reading right now which falls under these criteria:

• Book of the Dead
• Super Supportive
• Industrial Strength Magic

Thanks in advance!

Looking for some cool sci-fi and I really like robot/ai characters. Aliens are cool too i guess.

I'm mostly looking for a fast-paced action story with comedic elements.

You know what I'm talking about. Right now I'm really enjoying {Otome Game no Hametsu Flag shika Nai Akuyaku Reijou ni Tensei shiteshimatta…} and I'm a sucker for that kind of friendship development. Romance is fine too - I really liked {Kimi ni Todoke} which is another good example (although the pacing almost killed me). I don't care which side of this dynamic the MC is on.

Don't bother with other isekai. I've seen them all. My anilist if you have any doubt. In fact this seems to be a common thing in isekai, but that well is dry so I was hoping other genres had a similar thing.

Trash is fine I have no standards. Bonus points if they kick c

Seems like a few month ago that never happened. I honestly think it's annoying reading the same thing on every thread.

I currently work as a graphic designer in a small company (about 20 people).

We're running on a tight budget and are generally understaffed. We get by but there are many things that are just never taken care of. This combined with a very relaxed atmosphere means if someone wants to help out with anything they're generally allowed to do so regardless of their field.

This means I've basically become the IT guy (I even posted in r/talesfromtechsupport). For now I've mostly been doing stuff to help myself (Cut my workload by 30% in the last year - pretty much the reason I have time for this as I have to be on si

I'm not IT, officially (yet). Let me know if this story doesn't belong here. I guess it does. Thank you all!

I'm a designer in a small company. Our IT guy left the country a few months ago, and since I'm "technically inclined" I've somehow been turned into the in-office IT guy. I can imagine thats a story you've heard before.

Being a small company, it's a very casual setting. Lots of grumpy brits that swear frequently and punish their hardware when stuff goes wrong. I tried telling them to be nice to their computers "otherwise they won't listen to you". And so it has become sort of a running joke that I can talk to the computers since 90% of their issues are very simple fixes.

I want to give my photography more online presence and I feel like I'm nearing the point where a website is in order. I am fortunate to be a graphic/web designer so building a pro site will cost me nothing but time. My issue right now is that I'm not sure to what degree I want my services to overlap and I would love to hear you guys opinions.

I obviously already have a portfolio for my design work, and I will definitely add photography as a service there as it will be valuable to jobs like personal/small company branding (I'm a student and have moderate succes as a freelancer on the side). The issue is I'm not sure if I should have a dedicated site for photography.

I want to take photo

Sorry for the super long post, but this is one of the most important decisions of my life so bear with me! thanks for reading :)

A little backstory: I'm a 20 year old graphic design student living in Denmark (Europe).

Back in 2010 I volunteered to help a local non-profit project that organised rap tournaments in troubled areas in order to bring people together about something, and to give the kids something to do in their spare time (A lot of crime in our country is due to boredom and... "lack of personal goals" I guess..). I became the photographer. I always liked to take pictures but I never knew how much I'd actually love it. [I didn't knew anything about event photography b

Edit: This pretty much only applies to singleplayer.

Something I've thought about for a while is how we can almost always be certain that if you find a button, or a similar object you can interact with you are pretty much guaranteed that doing so will result in progression.

This is especially true in linear games. If you're lost or unaware of your current objective, wandering around trying to interact with everything until the game allows you to do something is almost always a guarantee that you're doing what you're supposed to do.

I understand that punishing the player for pushing the wrong button can be hard to balance, but I think this behavior is problematic and in some cases ruins t
