There is a fine line between fantasy and absurdity. Only one of them makes for good role-play.
But absurdity is a matter of opinion. Personally the parts of physics I find absurd isnt the motions of humanoids, its the sheer number of these dragons and their size. My foray is medicine and anatomy. The angles of the necks would suffocate an animal that big, not to mention the effects on its body by gravity itself, the bones would need to be extremely dence to hold up and that adds to the absurity of flight.
And lets talk bio-sustainability. Creatures that big all have to eat and the numbers... ridiculous. And back a minute to flight. Assuming for a moment that these abominations can fly the wind force generated by their wings, multiplied by their numbers.... it would be biblical forces. The walls would crumble by a flyby.
Point is we can dig into all of it, but to judge another as obserd just because they had the gall to do xyz in THIER rp, no bueno. Just my thoughts on it. We are in a game of fantasy and if want you rp and interactions to be just so, cool. But to dismiss people without even asking them why or how they do as they do, you only miss out. Im not sure when we got so dismissive of people and how they wanna spend their sub, but its how it is I suppose. A shame really.
