It’s getting close to forgetting which translators are good in what fields now.
It’s just slipping from my brain.
I lost my cheat sheet somewhere and it’s annoying.
I used to be able to just write down the strengths and weaknesses of each translator and then go through and quickly check based on that.
But now it’s lost and there’s new translators I have to go through slowly again once more I guess.
I need to quickly rebuild my cheat sheet.
I started playing Blue Archive again a few days ago because a couple of my friends are again, and everyone is talking about the new PV.
I remembered why I stopped playing in the first place today.
Progress just feels, really slow.
I know the game is more like a waifu collector shooter with a game system built around it.
But it just feels really slow to make any progress.
You gain player exp at a fixed rate essentially, for spending stamina.
Which means your progress is locked to your stamina regen.
Unless I am missing something, it will take me days to level up, and I need multiple levels to be able to continue the story.
It’s just so slow.
Sorry everyone, I’m in a massive rush today.
The editing might be a little more patchy than usual as a result.
I really really skimmed through, so it probably barely counts as even proofreading honestly.
Let me know any errors in the comments and I’ll fix them when I get time.
It’s Chapter 777.
Seven hundred and seventy seven. Hmmm, not quite as good when written out.
Absolutely crazy to think we’re 77.7% of the way there to 1000.
Is that previous sentence totally redundant? Yes, yes it is.
But I think it really illustrates how crazy far this novel has come.
Let’s not talk about how much more content the author also has though…
Like, yeah… it’s long. Really long. And still going for some reason!
Honkai Star Rail has opened up closed beta applications.
I strongly suggest checking that out before you miss them.
This beta surprised me though, I really thought they were going to aim for a March release.
Seems like they won’t be. I wonder if they decided to push it back for a reason, or if they weren’t even considering a march release at all.
Well I can’t read their minds, I’m just looking forward to the game.
I almost typed this as Chapter 885.
That would have been quite a jump, I hope our readers would be smart enough to realise the error but it’s a good thing I caught it.
Honestly thinking about it it’s amazing how few errors in scheduling I’ve done over the years.
I must be getting close to my fourth year now right… honestly the whole two year blip makes it hard to measure.
Anyway, here’s the chapter, not much of a ramble this time.
I should have had this done over an hour ago but I saw that Lumi had a livestream uploading so…
I ended up waiting around to watch that.
Yes, I mean that AI motion captured physics engine tech demo from Hoyo.
Look I want to see where my gacha money is going okay!
And it looks like it’s still in good hands.
So I’m currently planning more of my Star Trek Adventures rpg campaign and I think I have settled on a ship class.
I am leaning towards the Norway Class currently. Though the Steamrunner is in a close second place.
I like the Norway Class for its appearance but the Steamrunner for its saucer separation ability.
I guess I could read the rules for Steamrunner separation and copy them over to the Norway.
Both of them are good ships that fit between the third rate Nova Class and the first rate Galaxy Class.
They’re like a sideways step from the Intrepid, not a flagship but not weak.
I just need a name for it now… I can’t use Thunderchild because that already exists in canon.
I could do USS Edelweiss perhaps, or USS Valkyria on that front? USS Chaldeas? USS Luxion?
I think I may have put myself in financial ruin without realising it.
A kickstarter just charged me for shipping, and I have two art commissions going after being on a waiting list.
Christmas of course, was just recently so I had to buy a bunch of presents.
Well the end result is I think I have just over half the money I need for this month, which is, concerning.
I can afford one of the comms and have some money left over, which might be enough to cover the other if the exchange rate plays nice.
Is it just me or do the chapters lately feel longer than usual?
Maybe I’m just tired or maybe I’m just getting too used to the other novels I edit which are like half the length.
Sometimes I just feel I’m barely making a dent in editing the chapters, and that lack of progress keeps me from leaving the comments I usually make as I go.
Maybe I need to reconsider the method I do things?
I tried using ChatGPT to edit this chapter, just out of curiosity for the result.
It didn’t go well.
Partially because I shoved the entire chapter in at once with some vague instructions.
But also because the service flagged the chapter for violent and uh… inappropriate content.
Which to be fair I should have seen coming, so yeah.
Recently I’ve been spending my spare time browsing reddit, which is strange.
I’ve never done this before except for specific games never in general.
I wonder if this is because of my sudden free time spike.
None of my games are particularly appealing to me lately either, and youtube can get boring if you do it too much.
This season is absolutely stacked for anime.
I did a count I think I’m going to be watching somewhere between 20 and 25 anime in total.
It’s absolutely nuts.
I think this is the most anime I’ve been interested in watching in one season together.
That’s not even including the couple that are still ongoing from last season.
