Oddities, segmentation 1

So...I realized that over the course of this story (mostly in the early days), I did and said some stuff that was fueled in part by misconception. Keep in mind that at those points I hadn't really started watching the show, mostly just read fanfiction, so I had no idea how the characters really acted. This is meant to address my own personal concerns without forcing a reread for you guys, because I'm not just outright editing previous chapters...not at the moment, at the very least.

For starters, the earlier chapters moreso than the later ones are heavily based off of my own headcanons for the game, with tons of possible plotholes, major and minor; as well as write-offs and whatever crossed my mind right before I actually decided to write each chapter. It was incohesive, but I still think I needed to get most of it out of the way...the worldbuilding could have been better though. Especially on the interactivity side.

Maybe that's a byproduct of the fact that I consider this more of a Rez story than a pony story.

Now, I've actually had too much of this taking up my mind for a while, so this will give the most major gripe I have with each chapter. Either that, or give more context where I feel it necessary.

1: Pinkie Promise. And in hindsight (20/20), that is not how Rez normally swears a type of "on my honor/mother/my faith in god".
2: I know Twilight learns fast, but both of those instances are ridiculous!
3: How did the others hear him singing?!? And that piggyback should have been impossible, or impossibly hard to accomplish...than again, this is Twilight Sparkle we're talking about here.
4: She took "only a few days" to make that even possible in the first place...she's not an alicorn! And then they complete each others' sentences, like they'd been doing a few times over the past few chapters, and he just...leaves. Obviously I was not so good at writing social interactions.
5: Rez was talking really fast because he was thinking really fast. Hey, about the crowdsong... Yeah Twi? Was that really what happened there? It doesn't seem so far off given Pinkie but that pushes it only slightly. I say yes. Word Of God and all that. Though perhaps early exposure to magic overwhelming his senses, and/or a synesthesia-induced semihallucination had something to do with it. Well, I can confirm it was quite a party, in any case. PP parties usually are.
6: Celestia is just a tinge out of character here and in 5. Also, I had no idea you and Celestia came into communication like that. But I don't see Twilight as being very mad about that sort of behind-the-back thing.
7: Rez is lucky he already has functions close enough to magic to only require a few alterations to make work. Also, I seem to have a habit of briefly overpowering stuff. I'm getting batter about that, though.
8-10: Shenanigans of the best variety! Where Discord is involved, shit is either overpowered or it does absolutely nothing, so given the nature of the beast, I think I did a rather good job of it. If it's written well, Discord is basically half a free pass. That speech taking up so much of 10 though...I was inspired. Where did my muse go?

Oh, and I have few to no qualms with any of the sidestories. I feel those are my strongest chapters whatsoever...with what I have of WH up to this point, I could take what I've made and write a completely separate story, without the ponies or magical interactions, maybe something taking cues from Ready Player One.

Six months, no news. You deserve something. And you'll be getting some more soon(-ish?). I'm not even done with my check-up...wish me luck on overcoming the writer's block that now plagues me. Too many ideas, too little time!
