Guide Making and Me

Me  |  Guide Making  |  Thoughts
So. Let's begin.

After seeing the announcements of the S4 guide contest winners I thought to myself. "Huh, wonder where I went wrong." So I went through both my Sun Wukong and my Rama guide (Just saying, they're really both good so y'know go check them out.)

And I can understand where I really go wrong, the amount of BBcoding I do isn't on par to what the winners did and to some extent the detail wasn't as good. But this can be explained.

Normally I do my guides in school when I have nothing else to do (Just like now were I'm writing this blog in biology since I just got my controlled assessment done.) And I normally only have an hour tops to get them done. It's kinda annoying to some extent that I don't force myself to sit at my gaming PC and get it done were I could properly code it all to a fine-art practically.

But then it hit me: I don't really need to do it to that extent. My guides are my take on the god and I wanted to make it as casual - And informative - as possible whilst allowing readers to quickly scroll through without seeing anything fancy. There also very concise with giving readers the low-down on every ability and a recommended "Most Situations" build that is easy to use in any mode.

So yeah, whilst my guides may not cover every mode (Though I do intend to do one big update to my favourite gods.) and I may not cover every build under Ra. I can tell you that I'm able to make rather amusing and concise guides that even a 6 year-old could understand...And that makes me happy.

Happy Guide-Making,
