Re: Things in fiction you used to like/tolerate but is now an instant drop

The Chosen One. Mentor dies. Luke I Am Your Father, etc.
"Warrior women" who are so much better than those Other Girls (but who don't actually do a lot of stuff in the story or have any kind of personality or character arc to speak of, and are basically the love interest for the MMC.)

Most high fantasy tropes in general, tbh, and I'm thoroughly tired of grimdark, too. At least there's always Terry Pratchett.

I'm also really really sick of a lot of dystopian fiction, because I think the way they portray dystopias are so shallow. I get it, I get it, teachers and bureaucracy and having to do tests is evil, can you please at least have some nuance in there?

I still think the cycle of heroes becoming mentors is closer to the cycle of abused children becoming abusers than to the healthy paternal relationship it's apparently supposed to be a metaphor for.
