Quote: "Any you can recommend?"
among the ones i have read, if you are looking for something long and epic:
1-Stories in Stone Lunas Royal guard (finished but sequel in progress A mindblowingly-epic and tragic and dark tale about 5 individuals- from a time of war when equestria was weak and prayed upon every neighboring nation. The 5 individuals were Luna's personal guards and generals who supported Luna and later Nightmare Moon in her rise to power)
2-Immortal game (finished)
3-Nights favored child (long ambitious over 100k words already very good but seems far from finished and updates rarely these days.)
4-Flight of the alicorn (everyone knows this one. No comment)
5- Envy and arrogance (finished but its only part 1. Part 2- Guilt and hate is in progress)
6-Parlament of dreams and everything by that author- Wheller. He has like an entire series of stories that lead up to Parlament of dreams. If you like ponies and guns and fallout series- this is highly reccomended.
http://www.fimfiction.net/blog/3380 Here are all stories by Wheller in chronological order.
7-The Quiet place. (undergoing a complete rewrite, I read it before it was being rewritten and even then it wasnt completley finished but still very good. The author-Aynine stopped writing at the very peak of story climax and started rewriting from scratch. But it looks like it will be completed soon)
8- Of steam Gears and Wings- This guy successfully recreated the feeling of the original star wars in a diselpunk-esque Equestria (Common misconception is this story is steampunk- its actually more of a diselpunk with some futuristic technology too The first story is complete, part 2 is in progress)
9-The Empty room. (one of the first stories i have read, at the time i thought it was really good but it went to the bottom of my favorites list with every story i read)
I dont read a lot of slice of life, comedy or romace stories, but among the ones i have read here are the ones i liked the best.
1- My little alicorn (if you haven't read this go die right now) Also the sequel- Bringin up blueblood. Its mostly comedy and slice of life but has some dark undertones.
2- Past Sins- slice of life- adventure- Lots of people claimed that it made them cry. Well it almost made me cry... This one was hard to put down.
3 Monster- the only human in equestria type story that peeked my interest (because it wasnt tagged as a HiE story) While the author thinks his fic is terrible its actually really good, i ended up enjoying it.
4 Slice of life. a saga of hilariosly disasterous consequences of Celestia going on a diet. (still not finished)
5 pretty much every comedic story about luna and celestia getting drunk- th0se are always hilarios.
Finally, i am now in the process of reading stuff by "Black Rose Raven"- the Natta Edda Saga. He has 7 really long stories totaling 1500000+ words that seem to be very epic.
The problem is its a romance- adventure type series and so far his romance parts and general conversation parts are way too long, while written very well, they personally bore me. Its a shame because the parts with action and the overall story are very good. Still i am just finishing the second story and i wanna give this a chance to see if the authors writing style changes.
I have about 100+ more stories on my to read list the problem is that most of them are unfinished and i really dont want to get dissapointed by starting to read them and tormenting myself waiting for an update or worse realising that the author abandoned the story all together. There was this story that looked really good- called "Growing Pains" seemed like a good long epic story (with high rating and good fan-following too) that i would like, Was waiting for a long time to see it get finished so i can read it whole, and then the guy just announces that despite the fact he loved working on the story decided that he got bored of writing and left it unfinished with tons of loose ends saying that he might someday finish it.
I guess i understand people like that- real life gets them. I also decided to try writing something, then i got a full time job and i have no time to work on it and i am writing this post now while i could be making progress on my fanfic, or sleeping
So anyone know any good fanfics that might interest anyone else or me?
Also, i found that while reading these, picking out a good soundtrack for these stories really helps you get immersed in the atmosphere of the story.
dont hate people who rip you off,cheat and get away with it, learn from them
