I thought this opinion, "I can forgive a novel a lot for combining angst and violence in an entertaining way, and XXX does that," from a book review
I saw recently, has some application to this thread.
Since I was just reminded, happy fourth anniversary
, Project Horizons!
And, Project Horizons has updated again
, and it's still not the last chapter. It was supposed to be, but apparently Somber's dragging it out just a little bit longer.
Next chapter is the last chapter. Hopefully.
Finally got to read the latest PH chapter.
So, basically, Glory turned out to be alive just so she can die again. Yeah that about sums her up.
And you can tell this was supposed to be part of the previous chapter before it got expanded. For the most part it's just Blackjack getting some last word in with everyone before the final battle.
Touching, but rather so-so at this point.
#IceBearForPresidentIt does seem like there've been a lot of that kind of chapter towards the end, where a lot of it is catching up with people, with "Best Night Ever" in the 50s, "Perceptions" doing something similar at 63, it showing up in varying degrees from 68 to 70, peaking in 69, and now again in 76.
While I understand for structural reasons why Glory was done the way she was, that whole part just seemed kind of empty for me, in part I thought that her "death" in 72 was very well done and this reversed a lot of what I liked about it.
I enjoyed the bits with the ghosts, Psalm, and Celestia, though.
On another note, are there actually any Fallout 3 or New Vegas mods that are doing a total conversion of FOE? There's Gardens of Equestria, but that seems to be a crossover with New Vegas proper, and the Stable-Tec thing became its own thing.
After watching Falling Skies and Mason-Pope relations/conflict made me want to see FOE story where there is good scene where some charters criticize Lil Pip.
But better not with usual Lil Pip complain what FOE haters have. Because that scene would either author track or strawmanng. Not to mention I feel that complains about Lil Pip being cruel and to kill happy when dealing with bad guys is always viewing Lil Pip action from our reality perspective, what is much better (for most time) than FOE setting, so I don't any characters (beyond maybe some Stable pony) would make that kind of judgement about Littlepip for being ruthless when dealing with raiders, slavers and others who made Wasteland into living hell.
Three Fo E related cards are coming to Twilight Sparkle's Secret Shipfic Folder!

It's a little disappointing Littlepip's flavor text doesn't really have anything to do with her, though.
