User blog comment:ChishioKunrin/RWBY's quality, and how it can be improved/@comment-25555436-20150521215521

I think I know why Miles is doing such a piss-poor job with RWBY. It's very different from what he's used to.

Let's say you spend 8 years writing a drama about war, death, betrayal, which happens in a fully scy-fy setting. Then, you are suddenly asked to write a comedy for kids, in a high-fantasy setting, which is at least 80% different from what you've been doing for 8 years. You aren't going to do a nice job just like that, obviously.

Or for another example. Let's say you have always used shotguns, you have been trained to use shotguns for years and nearly dominate their use by now. But then you are suddenly given a Sniper Rifle and told to use it, despite not knowing anything about how to use one. Sure, you may have seen people use them, but it's different watching and performing.

Of course, this doesn't mean he's excused and should be forgiven, it only means his shit writting skills in RWBY are justified.
