Question about purples

Whites are tutorial trash. Greens are temporary upgrades as leveling. Blues are sick uniques.

Golds are legendary.

What role do purples play? From what I have observed they are amped up greens. Like for example, early in the game I realized I absolutely love certain greens I find. I’d use them over some blues even or golds cuz it felt better.

Purples usually also fit that niche.

Wanted to ask because while legendaries are sick there’s something special about dropping a purple with a good feel. Like its meant for me instead of a set unique.

Am i being crazy of confirmation biased with this or are purples just amped up greens. Its been a while and i also wanna come back to do a run where i only use greens and purples or something idk.

Motivation and Excitement for Story Slowing Down

https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/148176/adventurers-between-the-apocalypses

I remember believing that even if my story doesn't get many views I will still keep writing for myself and the handful of people that may actually be reading it.

Since then the only comments and messages I have gotten are people wanting me to pay for some service I don't want right now. No authentic comments and a stagnating follow and favorite rate.

Things I know I can improve on: Shoutout swaps and general exposure (like the promotion thread on here). Cover Design could be better as it's just AI right now and until I get some disposable income, I will just have to improve the AI prompt before I can afford an artist.

Just wanted to list those because they're known issue for me.

I mainly wanted to discuss feelings as a middling RR writer. The initial burst of 100k words on a consistent schedule was easy with motivation and hype and a general uptick in followers.

However, now that I am chewing through my backlog, and personal matters scuffed the rate at which I grow my backlog, I am starting to wither because I thought I'd at least have more interactions.

Hell, I don't even think any real human is reading my latest chapters so for whom am I rushing to get chapters out? I feel like most of my story is being read by just bots. It's one thing to write for fun and enjoying the process which I still do. It's another to post out into the void.

It's like playing an MMO solo or on a dead server. The fact that the game was intended to host people and there's just YOU is very isolating.

I will still write and still post, if a bit slower than before. But I wanted to share my experience with this to see if there's any that share the same feeling.
