Heh, it seems you're all reading FE

I don't know why I'm finding it SO hard to get into Projet Horizons

Wow, I really DO need an anchor

Also a fan of UHF.

Hey Lyra, I had an idea...if you will, please choose:

Any number from 12 to 15
Any number from 2 to 42
Any number from 2 to 8
Any number from 2 to 13
Any number from 2 to 76
Any number from 2 to 28
Any number from 2 to 66
Any number from 2 to 39
Any number from 2 to 31
Any number from 2 to 31 (again)

Gonna do something slightly different than when I did this before.

Or pony who seems normal, but doubles in size and turns green when he gets angry?

anchor? also, still debating reading that, and it's just Story.

well, I'd suggest we see about a body swap spell Lyra, but other then the human<->pony conversion, the Male<->female might be a BIT much.

Oh I'm sure you could find a brony or two willing to go along with that.

@Seraph An anchor. Something to keep my interest while I'm reading.

I can love the characters with all my heart, but they alone would not have kept me reading FOE (at least not initially)

With FOE I had Red Eye and The Goddess to look forward to. With Project Horizons I have... nothing

#179508 Seraphem Sun, 29th Apr '12 6:27:20 PM from Delamare

I just think it sounds way to Grim dark. The whole point of FO:E was that no matter how dark it is, the smallest candle of hope can clear a path through it. PH just seems like what weird twisted crap can we do to them next.

#179509 CDRW Sun, 29th Apr '12 6:29:15 PM

Project Horizons is what happens when you take the hope away from FOE and find out that even with all the hope gone, there's still somehow a little left over.

I don't know any ponies that resemble the Avengers, but I'm sure some exist.

#179511 Seraphem Sun, 29th Apr '12 6:31:24 PM from Delamare

so there IS still hope there? just all I hear is one after another of sick torture and other grimdark gore shit hapeening over and over....lossing limbs, tortured to death, forced canabilsim (Yes I know Arbu, I'm talking forcing a pony to eat pony for weeks KNOWING what it is, not tricking them) granted i'm only hearing parts of it.

Plus I hea there's some retconning of stuff from the main fic that I just don't like.

As I said, if I had the promise of a glorious villain to keep me going until I got used to the characters, then maybe...

Also, if all the characters weren't COMPLETELY miserable/evil

It just feels... MEAN

Ok, how the heck did a museum survive in the wasteland for 200 years?

If there is anything that you are alone in thinking, it's "thinking that you're alone in thinking of your theories".

#179514 CDRW Sun, 29th Apr '12 6:35:00 PM

@ Seraphem: Yes, there is still hope there, it's just that the author is taking the time honored approach of "push the characters until they break to show what they're made of" and turning it up to eleven. As for retconning, it's a fanfic of a fanfic, so it's about as different from the original as the original is from the show. You can call it retconning or you can call it worldbuilding.

No, you're just neurotic. And I ignore you because there's no point in talking to you about it.

You're not stuck! If you don't like it, just stop reading.

@Ginger: You're playing Live A Live? Ha, I've played that. What era's have you finished and what are you on now?

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

#179521 Perpetual Lurker Sun, 29th Apr '12 6:41:09 PM

You're freaking out and contradicting yourself every other post, Ginger. What do you want us to do? First you get angry for wanting to drop the story because there's no anchor for you, then you get angry because you are now stuck with the story, but can't drop it because you're too invested. You can't lash out at the people here for that, they didn't do anything.

@Perpetual What I mean by stuck is that I don't want my experience of the FOE world to end. I've grown to love it too much.

I'm invested with a god damned SETTING. But there are no other stories WITHIN that setting that even have a hope of grabbing me but Project Horizons

Mostly, I'm just desperately trying to justify how I can possibly enjoy Project Horizons. Because at the moment I started reading it PURELY to oblige my investment in the setting

If there isn't a story you like, write it. That's how we ended up with Lord of the Rings.
