Lyra....why is it always Lyra? How many guns did Erik have on his trashed ship, did the Aetherians 3D print precision machined firearms, mass produce ammunition, why not a powered Gatling gun, why not a battle rifle with range? Good pistol craft does not come with a an hour or two of instruction. Does the author really understand firearms? A fairly large leap from just beginning to face the Scar with guns to the Scar being afraid of the weapons. Time frame leaps are common with these amateur writers. Let's hope this story is a "one and done" one.
Yea, and it's not always the damned only thing which repeats within stories that do not have even relation with each other except for being maybe from same source. And that makes me feel like it's AI or just some lazy human writer who doesn't want to bother to invent new characters. AI in the same sense as one can do with picture generation. Type in a set of things you want. Basic parameters if you will. And then only tweak a little bit if at all the whole thing - making the AI turn in countless of variations about the same or near same thing - thus repeating not only portions of the story - but also - literally names, plots, ideas, story agendas you name it.
So that's what first Contact is like huh, your technology sucks and your gun isn't worth a s***!😮💨 If the dude would have landed with a freighter full of mini guns and sniper rifles then I could see a little bit of plausibility but he lands in a ship about the size of a semi truck and........ oh, never mind.
This story instantly made me think of SG-1 and Thor asking for help with the replicators and basically saying our low brow approach to weapons was what was needed now that their technology failed them. well he said your projectile weapons proved effective in fatally damaging the replicators, you have demonstrated that their weakness may be found througha less sophisticated approach we are no longer capable of such thinking...... So they want someone dumber than their own people to sort out their "bug problem" in this story same as the Asgard did.
Drinking game.. Take a shot every time the word "obsidian" is said.. Lolol... you'll be falling down drunk before the story is over. Other word options are "ethereal or etherea."
Why is it always "guns rule" in these stories? If you're gonna have guns, where are the sniper rifles, the subs, the squad autos, the heavy mgs, the howitzers? And what about the mortars, RPGs, Stingers, TOWs, Javelins, mines?
Why does he care what the aliens think ? Repair my ship for free heal me and wave good bye. Cool maybe you could teach this primarive something, better faster than light drive, better sensors whatever.
WTH? Was this written by a grade school kid that just learned how to spell obsidian and bioluminescence? It has to be a grade schooler because that child would not likely see the gigantic plot hole in the story, namely the Aetherians being unfamiliar with basic physics and ballistics!!! Why did the Aetherians need an Earther to traverse the Universe to bring them some quantity of gunpowder pistols to fight big bugs? If high energy weapons couldn’t defeat the bug armor, why did pistol ammunition? And if gunpowder ammunition could defeat bug armor, why not bring rifles, machineguns, grenades and artillery pieces? If the Earther’s ship was too small to bring volumes of large caliber weapons, how many pistols was he able to bring to outfit the army of Aetherians? Whatever, who cares? This story was feeble.
I stopped to listen the moment there was not even any explanation in the story as to why the hell did those guns or weapons in general had to come the first discussion topic after someone just woke up after a crash on a planet. Yea I also agree it's either AI due the way this is like, well I lost the count, how many times one of the characters is named Lyra or something equivalent, never mind all the other repeating names, plots, agendas behind stories (like peace, diplomacy - which mount often to a story without a story in it) and repeating themes even in supposedly different plots. Either AI or really lazy writer who does not bother to invent new characters for different stories. I write a bit myself, and in principle there is nothing wrong with using repeating characters - I mean that's how some series are born, lol. But there are two types of those - the kind you write simply cause you look to doing something kin to eating a home made food - you know comfort food, so I suppose you can call it comfort writing. And the other is actually taking the creation of a series seriously, which is when all those parts got to somehow attach with each other - if not in form of grand over all story-line, then at least happening as if in different moment's of the character's life. But the former does not have such unifying factor. At first I thought it's maybe some sort of 'fan-fick' - you know, someone else adopting something which they liked, but making their own versions. But in all truth the number of times we see same names in these is actually getting to work against that presumption and will likely end up sending people watching other videos in end - because when that over all combining factor is missing, people start getting bored and frustrated. Now in essence using same characters and not making story-line or life line out of has it's uses, but it's not really the way to build something which would work further - well at least you would not get that stuff published. It's more about like said comfort, testing ideas and just relaxing for the writer. Asking how do these people react to this? Rather than starting from the start inventing all again. I do that too, got a set of characters that I push into different settings, but if I use them, it never was even intended for publication or anyone to hear or read. Not even my family gets to read those. So I really use them namely for my own amusement, but compared to what we seen in these videos lately - at least mine are never the kind of utter repetition than one sees with some of these stories. Mine is basically a person from our time finding themselves in past like dimension involving magic and shit like that. But every time I write it, the setting is from that start concept entirely different. The trouble how ever with those characters is that they write the story, not the writer - they work yes - but they also always end up unfinished, because the actual action of writing will birth new ideas that start to twist the original, and that kills both, cause you can't cramp in several themes or such in the same. And favourite characters have also the flaw of being favourite. So basically, using same characters for different stories - for some it apparently still is not enough to also remember to change the idea around a lot, given how often that is missing an attempt in what we seen lately. It's about the difference between doing the work on something new, challenging and troublesome to get it right and realising that while utterly familiar your favourite characters aren't generally the kind that would work for something worth while to present to others, cause you lack the ability to be cruel enough against those characters or show other favouritism that tends to screw the story over. Basically you end up with 'superheroes' and those belong into cartoons, cause they do not have to struggle enough for the success to make it good. So those of us who have 'repeating characters' usually know to keep them under wraps, some even entirely destroy the stories after those were written - cause usually you never finish it anyhow. When you just wrote it for your own fun, that does not matter - it's a way to spend another a day elsewhere instead of on your daily shit or get your mind working again. I mean, for me at least such can get you out of writer's block - because they are 'idea rich environment' for being familiar enough not requiring the initial work - only the trick is to take the idea born out of this, not the one you started with, but the one it starts to birth out of it, and then invent new characters to throw into it - some other people, whose boy friend you won't mind killing for the plot. Ok, idk if that made sense. But for me the best way of coming up with new ideas is to allow them to rise out of existing ideas. So that's why familiar starting setting, and familiar characters, which remove all the 'character and world building' - cause I can get really lost in those. And then when the process of editing and working with about 40-100 pages worth of something - has managed to offer a side path out of the actual story - you kill off the beginning and get in on the side path. That doesn't even need to have the original time travel setting any longer so you get rid of the common reasons why that type of a story line got more issues than you can find logical enough loop holes to sneak past. Even fantasy has to be - logical and plausible per say, even when that explanation may have to be utterly fantastical - it needs to exist, or the reader will do what I did with this one. Stop listening or reading, cause the whole immersion broke instantly with the question of 'hold on wtf, how's that supposed to work'.
Have you thought of writing your own stories or teaming up with a good writer? I enjoy your narration but many of these AI stories are inconsistent and lacking depth. Great job playing each voice.
Where did Eric get all of these weapons he is handing out? A magic replicator ? Why handguns ? Why not rifles that would be much easier to learn. I'm disgusted... Good by.
Just how many “guns” did this lone guy bring with him??? --- I had hopes for the story. A “projectile weapons can still be competitive against energy weapons” narrative, à la Stargate, the original “V,” and possibly Firefly. But instead, a bit of Starship Troopers with a ridiculous setup and almost no narrative, just repeated statements of characters‘ emotion. Other commenters are right when they say your stories are repetitive and substance-free. I had hopes seeing that your stories were “pro-human,” as it were, unlike so much Woke stuff out there. But they still need to be stories. UNSUBSCRIBED
Almost agreed with until woke stuff. Obviously you spend too much time looking for stories from soybean juice drinkin limp wrist. That stuff will rot ya brain next thing ya know ya butt gonna be in a fur suit.

I get the feeling the narrator has never fired a weapon...
Got Asgard asking SG1 for their help with the replicators, vibe from this story.

Primitive... by their standards. Crude? After 600 years of refinement, I disagree. Even for advanced civilization standards. Good story!
Refinement is the difference between advanced and primative.
Someone has a strange preference for using the adjective "Obsidian"
This is soooo flowery, I need to get a hoe and shovel, and start pulling weeds ... this is adjective adverb hell.
Your novels are so much better.
😂😂😂😂😂
Can you guys make a story about a alien (krill) seeing alaskan crab fishing in the bering sea for the first time
Eric is certainly an (USA) American, that obsession with guns.
Gotta have em. .
these all appear to be AI generated stories.
Write one.
I gut me this gun see, the pinnacle of weaponry. Time to write a story that show this...
The same attitude could apply to the longbow or catapult
Drinking game.. Take a shot every time the word "obsidian" is said.. Lolol... you'll be falling down drunk before the story is over. Other word options are "ethereal or etherea."
I was sh*t faced in the first 15 minutes! 😮
I don't think your liver would last 😅
2 shots for every time they say “chitanous “

Unrealistic. Machine gun, flame -thrower, artillery, air-support, etc, all more effective against massed infantry charge then pistols..
They now classify automatic rifles as pistols to avoid anti gun laws. 🤣
I guess that Erick was an NRA member with enough weapons and ammo to outfit an army. That makes sense, me too.

Goofy ah chat gpt
I am certain your own stories are elite. 😂
Is this a recruitment video shown to high school kids in the USA?

Have to admit - this has to be the lousiest story I've yet to run across. There are so many story holes I could't finish it.
Nice story idea 👏 but NO AI ART 😡
we’ll be changing up how we do the artwork soon!
Where did Eric get all of these weapons he is handing out? A magic replicator ? Why handguns ? Why not rifles that would be much easier to learn. I'm disgusted... Good by.
Narrator has never fired a weapon is my guess.
Another horrid piece of SciFi writing
eh it's all in good fun, i don't think it matters too much and it's meant to be easily digestible
Definitely AI word salad. Easily get rid of a third of it and still have a story.
👎❗️
Just how many “guns” did this lone guy bring with him???
