X-Project Constructive Criticism

I'm tossing this up here quickly because I have to go, le sigh, continue packing. ;)  I...do not have an XP filter, apparently. :D  Grabbed from a whole bunch of people:

Constructive Criticism Meme!

I actually missed the whole whatis yesterday and, gladly, will probably stay out of it.  However, I like the constructive criticism thing.  So here goes.  Here's the space for some constructive criticism, tell me where I've got some room to grow, that kind of thing.  The flip side being that when you comment, you need to tell me something good.

I'll try and have some time in the next few days to do the reverse on all the journal entries the last few days.  And, er, you know continue logging.  Right now, back to packing.

A little more structure/guidance with your plots, maybe? Though I've only been in the two. :)

Your ideas are awesome. It's the variety -- you account for both the major superheroy traditional plots and also the smaller stuff. Everyday Superhero and Ahab were both entirely different, and the weird random fun ideas you throw up for everyday interaction add a lot to the background of the game. And, you know, the "insert crack here" quality of your presence.

And Rory was frigging creepy.

I'd like to see a bit more follow-through. It's likely a function of time/availability, but you start a lot of things and mention plans, but you don't always get around to finishing them, and sometimes it leaves people hanging or being forgotten, which is kind of owie. Maybe Frito's Post-It system on your home computer? ;)

You know I adore your gameplay and your girls, all three of them. Moira is missed, but Angel is such a delight and Wanda is my hero. I love our logs together, and believe me, I'm holding you to that Wanda-Amanda training log post-VC now. ;P

I'm not sure if I can think of any criticism for you - you are a joy to write with and I love both your girls for many reasons, and I hope to write more with you in the future. I think you're a talented, nuanced writer, and Wanda's just... I forget who said it above, but she's my hero too. ;) Oh! I know what to say! More Wanda and Pietro! There. :)

(What happened to our log? Was it my turn? I have a feeling it was. Damn.)

No meme! This is more than a meme. It's serious bizness ;P

The only thing I can think of for you to consider is that Angel may be a little too cracktastic. She's fun and funny, but sometimes I wonder if she's played up too much. Julio offers her a sort of calm that still lets her be her but without also being a hummingbird. If that makes sense >.>

The crack certainly has its place, though, and you put it in the right places. Wanda is everything that canon never made her, and thank goodness for that. And for all her nuttiness, Angel is a breath of fresh air compared to the students of old who couldn't stop angsting over something.

Also, you're going to live with me, and that will be awesome. Hehe, talk about cracktastic.

I'm not sure if I can really think of any criticism. I like Angel and Wanda both a lot. I'd love to see more of the repercussions of Ahab and Savage Land on Angel, though - I really liked the scenes with Julio during Ahab.
