Like I said before, this isn’t a ‘game’. The card aspect is to turn ‘abilities’ into ‘possessions’. Even their lives can be stolen if their Life Card is stolen. As for the uniqueness of build… Well, I can say you’ve inspired me with what you said. A change I’m thinking of implementing is that...

I’ve realised from your explanation that I might need to work on making this less like an “ability” story and more “card” focused. Gotta slightly tweak a few things to fit this new imagination in my head. Thank you for sharing this valuable insight. To answer a few question: Why cards? Because...

Less incest this time.

The ‘introduction of new power system’ would have stayed the same regardless of the MC to be honest. In the original draft, the MC is someone else who lives in this world and is affected by the new weapon-based power system. His teachers are also ‘skilled, but weak’ because they followed a...

This is an extension of Draft Idea 1. The premise is that the MC has awakened with Card Abilities at birth in a family that doesn’t see this as being strange. At an early age, the ‘Final Boss’ analyses his ability and improved the original power system he’d introduce at the Academy. In this new...

Tj That was very insightful. Having a number to work with sounds fun the sci-fi elements in the mix. This academy rarely makes students ‘battle’ each other (unless to promote or demote the cadets). Espionage and ‘team compositions’ are what I’m thinking of working with right now. Will post...

Audience expectations on how you will deliver on past promises is important. Think of how Game of Thrones ruined everything with a random dragon rampage, mad queen, and trying to ‘subvert’ the payoff we were hoping for. Though that is an old example you probably won’t get, simply consider where...

All I can think of is regression stories where the MC becomes friends with those he normally wouldn’t. “My Daughter Is The Final Boss” has only one close but not quite example of what you said, where he inserts himself into a witch’s past and ends up making the present version of that witch his...

Something similar happened in ‘I Tamed The Tyrant’ or something. FML gets turned into a sword that is used to kill her own family (who were abusive anyway but it was painful and she lost her freedom). Goes back in time and turns a genius villain into someone with power to get revenge against the...

If I say you’re a duck, will you become one? The concept of cannibalism is eating someone of your own kind. It has nothing to do if you see them as chicken fillet or anything. Just accept it and move on since there are worse stuff a cultivator can do (like turn your niece into a sword because...

The first is learn grammar. The second is if it sounds weird out loud, then it probably sounds weird when reading. The third is that I gotta sound like I’m telling their story rather than a biography regarding my characters. The fourth is just going towards an ending. Lastly, just explore...

Tho everyone is ‘unique’ in this story due a flexible power system that doesn’t rely on only one area of expertise. Adding that he’ll start off with a cheat anyway that everyone else will benefit from via the Last Boss’s plagiarism.

That means everyone will get ‘Cards Have The Superpowers’. You can throw your vote, but I’m happy to see the comment first. I’m happy that the MC not being ‘unique’ won’t hurt my story too much, as now I know not everyone likes that. I liked the idea of the MC meeting the Last Boss will cause a...

I’ve thought about the rough draft idea and settled on this one. It’s a bit different from the whole ‘Gift’ system type I did when writing “An Identity Beyond Self”. That story I couldn’t continue due to IRL issues thwarting my schedule. Nor did I make enough notes. My memory isn’t the best, so...

I’m starting to see an outline worth pursuing. Especially with my TCG experience. Now this is gonna be fun~

This is similar to my previous post about ideas but instead I’m going to work on it in the back and only post once the ‘plan’ is finished (which characters included, how long it will go, and the ending). This one might seem more vague than the other one but I’m open for suggestions. Who knows...

Breakdown what’s actually ‘relevant’ to the plot and characters while making sure that they only become aware of things when they properly study the system. There is no need to deep dive into paths that aren’t directly relevant as either an obstacle or barrier. Complex systems are better...

You should give it a try. Much better than it sounds and the Manhwa got the looks down. You mean the fighting cheat users one?

Too many characristics to handle. Gotta kill some darlings to make that work.

Hmmm… Guess some part was a turn off, but the fact that it’s a flat out ‘No’ means you know of it. What part didn’t you like?
