#8 Now Done AND Live · 4:00pm Sep 25th, 2016

Sorry for the long wait and delays.

And a special thanks and sorry to my editors for the glacial response times. The chapter wouldn't have been half as good without you guys, and I'm sorry I've been so busy lately. :raritywink:

Now I only need to try not gnawing my nails to the bone on the wait to the responses to the first update in over a year. :raritydespair:

It was probably for the best. If you had actually listened to the feedback I sent in that PM, you probably still wouldn't be done rewriting it. :trollestia:

*Cough.* :twilightblush:

To be fair, a V. 5.0 would quite possibly have killed the story as a whole becuse I was already getting so frustrated, and Dresden Files tends to have one-two let's-talk-about-how-doomed-we-are chapter/s.

Still, so far it seems mostly well-recived, and that's the important bit. :raritystarry:

Perfect is the enemy of good.

True enough.

Still, a difference between 'good enough' and 'not good enough' as well, and...

Well, to be blunt, it hurt quite a bit too admit so to myself, but the first drafts of #8 was on the wrong side of that line. :ajsleepy:

I don't know if you ever read that message, but I still stand to my opinion that the finished chapter repeats all the mistakes of the old version and then made them worse by stripping out all the action, even the parts that were good about it. I really want to know who even was it who originally made the problems out to be such big deal, it sounded worth delaying the chapter by a year over, but who apparently can't even tell the difference well enough to notice that they never actually got fixed.

It's out! We're finally over the hurdle! Hurray Hurrah Huzzah!

The funny thing is, not being a SEGA kid, I didn't see that Altered Beast intro until after I saw Volgarr the Viking reference it.
