Chaotic Harmony... Reboot? · 12:54am Jun 4th, 2015
So, while trying to fix Chaotic Harmony, I couldn't help but notice how much of it was really broken. The problem is simply that the direction I started going in was not the direction I ended up going. Philomena wasn't going to be the only creature Shiro could summon, for example. There is also a lot of things I could do much better.
Therefore, I would like to get your opinion on this; how would you feel about a reboot? I won't be deleting the original, and it will share some plot points and the humorous tone of the original, but for the most part, it will be a very different story. I will say, though, that if I do, Children of Chaos will be considered a sequel to the reboot, instead of the original.
Speaking of Children, this will help with that story, as well. The problem I've had with the story is simply that Shiro is too OP. In order for Razor and the others to compete, they'd have to pretty much become Mary Sues/Gary Stus.
This won't be done for some time, as Nightmare's Dream and Dawn Shield are my priorities, but I'll be doing it sometime after. I might see about writing out a prologue and giving you guys a sneak peak if you guys want it badly enough. Yes, beg for it like dogs, mwahahahaha!.
Yeah, it got kinda....terrible at the end there. I never finished it, I just kept tabs on it, hoping that you'd do a reboot.
Now that you've had more experience as a writer, plus having a better idea of the direction you want to go with starting out, I think a reboot would be awesome.
More chaotic harmony?...
I don't think you have to keep asking...
(Yes)
Sometimes to take a step forward you need to take two steps back, I would say go for it.
3121478 What did it for you?
3121493 My thoughts exactly.
3121498 Oh, I'm not asking if I should do it. I'm going to do it. I'm just curious as to how much people want it.
3121544 That doesn't make any sense! Discord approves (we need a Discord emoticon... and Luna while we're at it).
3121576 I can't remember what DID it, just where it started. He basically crossed into Gary Stu territory at some point, and I seem to remember having a bunch of issues with said chapter. But It's been long enough that I can't remember any details.
3121576 Also, Thumbs up for Sunbutt and Moonbutt Emotes.
3121579 Ah. That's the problem with Children of Chaos. The fact that Shiro's too op is making progressing impossible.
3121581 We already have Sunbutt. We need Moonbutt and Blenderbutt
Do it! I'm waiting for the rewritten chapters l, but this will be even better
3121698 There is no fixing the original. It's flawed on a level that would require a rewrite, so I'm just rebooting it.
3121756 I just remembered one of my issues that set the ball rolling. It took an unnecessarily strong turn down the corner of "Pervy Avenue" and "Sexual Jokes Street" . Now, I have no real issues with that, but it was just...
scene 1: Nothing wrong here
scene 2: Talking about the claw marks on his lovers ass.
3121786 Really? You mean with Jynx's parents? I'll admit it was a rather poorly written story, but I still don't see much wrong with that scene.
I'd read it. The reason I started follow you being rewritten but fresh.
Also, woof!
3121576 Here' two If you size them down mlpforums.com/uploads/monthly_10_2014/post-27959-0-64991700-1412874161.png images.wikia.com/mlp/es/images/2/27/Luna_Evil_S2E4.png
3121844 The Discord one is perfect. They need to use that one! If you can find a vector of just the face, I'll see if I can get Knighty to use it.
3121805 Neither do I, now. It just, pardon the innuendo, Rubbed me the wrong way back then.
3121805 Remember, take what I'm saying with a grain of salt. I've not read it in...I forget how long.
Go for it I would read a reboot. As for children if shiro is superman make his kids go the batman route.
3121862 Oh, I love hearing about what I've done wrong. The analogy I use is; If your car is leaking oil, and someone notices it, you don't want them to tell you how well your lights are working.
By all means, tell me what's broken so I can fix it.
3121901 I told you what I could remember bothered me. I literally remember ONLY what I've brought up. If you knew me, you'd know I'm not someone you want to review something I haven't read/played in a year.
3121917 If you remember any more, let me know, please .
Go4it! The original is awesome, this should be even better.
3121851 Hmm I'll look but no guarantees.
I say go for it! and to me, its rather obvious that you'd want to finish Dawn Shield and Nightmare's Dream.
Chaotic Harmony is the fic that got me into your writing, and I think it'd be even better with a reboot
