Lovecraft wrote archaically even for his own time. He had some really interesting ideas, which is why his mythos has been used as a basis by so many other authors, but he wasn't a very good writer in a technical sense. I really enjoyed his short stories as a teenager, but nowadays I prefer seeing what IMO more talented authors can do with the mythos.
You're just comparing two different sets of books. I haven't read Sara J Maas but back in the 90s and auties we were getting crushed under an avalanche of Danielle Steele, Dean Koontz, and Dan Brown. If you want a contemporary fantasy author with a bit more gravitas read Catherynne Valente or Kazuo Ishiguro. Although they won't go down smooth as a beach read, maybe.
Totally in a league of her own as an epic fantasy writer IMO!
I don't see why people would even go to a site to read AI generated articles and be bombarded with ads. I could just ask an AI to write an article for me? Just cut out the middle man at that point.
That's good to hear. I remember getting to a point in 15 where there's a long cutscene of a city invasion, and I realized I didn't know what city it was, who was invading, or why. Nor did I know what relation it had to the segment I had just played. So at that point I had enough.
Mine just makes the UFO sound and I'm into it.
When I got an EV I admit I was put off by the dial replacing the stick. I shopped around trying to avoid it in fact. I did get used to it, but it was off-putting at first. because I'm so used to resting my hand on the gear shift. Tactile things are part of the UX for cars.
I'll be waiting to see what the consensus on the story is. Because I quit FF15 25 hours in after realizing I had no idea what was going on and no idea who anyone was, since the story was fragmented across multiple media.
Boomers l think we live in some hyper liberal soft on crime woke nation despite having the highest incarceration rate on earth with extremely strict penalties.
