Reviews for Scavengers - A Warframe Story
Guest chapter 50 . 2/14
This is one of the best stories I have ever read, be it on this site or an actual book. You possess true talent and a writing style almost lyrical in nature, and I confess I read through this story in a shamefully low number of sittings. Please continue writing and never let anyone discourage you. This was a story of epic proportions and deserves its own published book.

A masterwork of Warframe storytelling!
I’m honestly amazed you were able to create something so cohesive and enthralling out of the vague, jumbled mass of lore we have from Warframe.
The characterisation and world building was exceptional, every character was distinct and immediately recognisable and the locales were brought to vivid life.
Other than a handful of tense issues and minor typos the dialogue and narration was perfect, and the action was flawless.

Wow, it really sucks that people were pestering you about the story to the point of wanting to quit writing it, especially over the most interesting idea in the story. That, of course, being the idea of a Tenno awakening from the Dream and deciding to live in the normal world instead of following the Lotus. I found the concept fascinating and whenever Isolde was involved, my eyes were glued to the screen; I wanted more information.

While I kind of wished the entire story had been about that concept, I did find the story written to be quite enjoyable. It mostly stayed true to Warframe's universe while providing excellent world building and using established lore in effective ways. The characters were also a delight with the comic relief of our two mains, the contrast provided by the boy, and the interesting character development of the Merc team. I even had a soft spot for the likes of Kef Mehrino and his lackluster party that no one showed up to. That guy just can't win.

As many have already said, your descriptive abilities do feel like something I would find in a published novel rather than an internet fanfiction and yours is one of the few I can claim that about. The way you paint the imagery of a scene while describing the events is simply sublime.

If I had to level any kind of criticism at the story, and it is very minor, but I did wish there had been more exploration of the contrast in what Karl remembers with what the world is like in the post War Within pre-Sacrifice Warframe times. I feel like it would have strengthened the ending more with Septimus talking about how bad the world is with Karl not really knowing how to react since he hasn't been up that long. Just a little more focus before the revolution plot kicked in would have helped, I believe. Also sometimes I felt like the above chapter quotes had little to do with the content of the chapter. Not a huge issue, but it especially drew my attention whenever it was about the Sentients who have very little relevance to the story overall.

All in all, this is one of the better fics I've ever read especially for the word count. Where so many long fics often feel bloated with unnecessary detail or bland description, this one you've created felt elegant and natural in the best ways. I had a blast reading it and I wish you luck with future endeavours. Ciao.

Telin, no more true'r words have never been spoken.

Bloody hell! This story's great! I admit, I had my doubts but this has certainly proven me wrong. I loved the twists and I thought for sure that Isolde's warframe was a Valkyr, but it actually was a mesa presidio and later, a mesa graxx! I did not see it coming!

Hope to read more about the misadventures of Telco and Kelp with their trusty HWK 44!

Honestly, I just loved how you ended the story with an open ending. It's just great how it opened up new opportunities for more stories.

PS. I binged read the story and read it all in only 1whole day. It was that good.

Thanks for the ride Tenno, and welcome to the relay.

The way this story builds upon the setting is absolutely incredible, and the attention to detail is insane! This seriously deserves to be made into canon, and I hope it gets more attention from the community.
pumpkinpie chapter 50 . 5/12/2019
Found a link to this fic on some forum I don't even know, looking for more warframe fanfic to read because there is no where near enough that's not nsfw. I knew I'd find something somewhere but goodness I never expected to find something this long or this good. It's a straight up masterpiece and constantly had me on the edge of my seat. The characters are so lovable, even (perhaps especially) the ones that started out as enemies. I would die for Parson-Luk and Brakarr and...well, everyone. It's something I know I'm gonna wanna read again too. I don't know if you still write or play warframe or whatever, but I hope you keep on going, because we need more stuff like this in the world. Kudos 3

This story was, and still is, dummy good. No significant flaws to be noted here, and the action is stupid fun to read.
The Guarding Dark chapter 1 . 2/8/2019
Holy. Shit.

I honestly don't know what precisely a writer as supernaturally talented as you is doing slumming it it on a site like this. But you need to get published. I'm serious, you're more than skilled enough. I for one would eat that shit right up.

I applaud you, author. This is definitely it. A in all categories: character, world building, plot, etc. Except for an A- in grammar. There are quite a few misused semicolons and commas, especially towards the climax.

I sat down and devoured this work as one does a banquet- First to stave a hunger, then to savor the choice pieces found in the scurry.
Fits and starts of gleeful description, battles of wit and blood in equal measure, I fell in love with the world building, the characters and the adventure that became of an enduring vendetta.

Brilliant. Absolutely BRILLIANT.

Finally! A Good Warframe Fic that's actually complete! Thank you so much! I very much enjoyed this story and hope to read your other stories!
WassupMan chapter 1 . 10/16/2018
Created an account just to write a review lol, one of the best Warframe stories out there. Good writing, better characters. Sure can't wait till the next chapter of our heroes, or another story from you ;)
Provo Tenno chapter 50 . 9/26/2018
Oh my, what a chapter.
Please, good person, keep writting yourstories about Isolde and the gang. I want this to continue so badly.
One comment: some of the end scenes felt a little rushed for the emotion, so consider lengthening them out so the reader can feel with the character. Just a thought.
Regardless, I love your work
