Hello everyone and everypony, this is Hellshooter here with a Author’s note that is regarding my story, “FoE: riders of the wasteland”.

Surprisingly, quite a few people liked it, despite it being the first story I've made. But, as with all stories, there are a few who dislike it…. And honestly, I find that logical…

Now I know what you're thinking, “what!? A first time writer with a somewhat flawed story who isn't acting like a but-hurt child when introduced to Criticism!? What type of Witchcraft is this!?”.

Listen… I knew that some of you were going to point out flaws I may or may not see, or just straight up Rage at me for crossing over Kamen rider with Fallout equestria. I find that understandable, I knew that I wasn't going to make it through this without flaws.
If you don't like the story then you don't like the story, I can't force you to say otherwise. I just want to bring a story with an idea people can enjoy.
If there are problems you with it, then voice them in detail. I can't fix something when I don't know what's wrong with it. So far, only one person, and I'm not giving out names because I respect their opinion and hate it when others are needlessly thrown into the spotlight , has given their two cents on the problems they see.

Though I don't agree with everything they have said and though they could have been more to the point and more specific on what should be done to fix the problems they saw, I admit that they have addressed key points that are issues were overlooked now that I'm seeing it from their viewpoint. That's what I'm looking for, comments that help me fix mistakes or recommend ways to capitalize on what was done right to make the story better.

I think of your entertainment before my own self-satisfaction. I want you guys to enjoy this story for what it is. If you don't care about helping me with the story or about what decisions I make, I'm not going to stop you from thinking that. I'm just a writer with a voice that he wants to use for others to hear his idea’s and opinions.

But to those who do care, at least do this. Tell me what was done right and what is flawed in your eyes. I'm willing to listen. Sure, I may not agree with everything you guys say fully, but I always acknowledge the things you say and try to hear you out. It helps in making the story better than it currently is.

Also, to hardcore fans of the Kamen rider franchise and Fallout Equestria, If you see something that is vital to the series’ that are shown being left out then tell me. I'll admit, though I've seen and read these things many times over, I'm not the best when it comes to remembering every little aspect for everything I'm a fan of. Hell, I sometimes overlook and forget parts of the common knowledge for these things.

What I'm trying to say is, I'm not as hardcore as other fans are. So if you see that I left something vital out, then just tell me. I'm just one person, and a human. I'm not perfect.
I'm trying the best I can with what i'm capable of, and I intend to improve. All I'm asking is for you to help me with improving through your comments and suggestions.

Also, I'm having a delay for the next chapter due to certain things that need to be rewritten. Like I said, someone brought a valid point to a key flaw, and it appears to be present in this upcoming chapter so I need to go through it and fix it so I don't make the same mistake twice. I tip my hat to the one for mentioning it by the way if you are reading this.

One more thing. I need to knock some things out of the park to help ease some people’s concerns. No, I will not be doing crossovers. Yes, there is more to the villain's’ presence than just the riders being there. No, there won't be anymore riders, with one exception, after Fourze until the end of the second story ark. Yes, the Rabbit Hatch will be present. No, no rider machine’s, with the exception of Wizard’s, will be automatically accessible to the riders.
No, the pony hinted in the next chapter is not Blackjack due to the Ending in Project Horizons, mostly because it would be a bitch to come up with a logical reason to how she’s part cyber pony again. Yes, there will be a Phantom that is targeting Velvet. No, Calamity will not be the trigger to Velvet’s near descent into despair, because I don't what haters giving me shit for killing off a beloved character for one of their favorite shippings, plus calamity did not go through his character ark in the main story just to be killed off in this one and it would be a dick move on my part of I did kill him off.
Yes, the mechanics of the Underworld will be present. No, I will not Be including Kamen Rider ghost because I haven't finished watching it yet, Same goes with Kamen rider Drive.

I hope this helped clarify a few things for you guys, and I hope we are able to come to an understanding. I'll see you all next chapter.
