    Magic and Science Light novels

    I can really see the difference between "soft magic" and "hard magic" fans. It's like watching DnD fans disagreeing with WoD Changeling fans on how magic should work. I read both types cause it's hard enough to get completed stories when it comes to web novels.

    Now it turns out that my novel is now inclusive and Woke?

    It's pretty 'inclusive' to normies trying to get clout. But it's just another day in the life of a DnD player or anime fan. You can figure out which one of the two you are. Manbearpig probably just wanted to add a gay furry and probably an asex rock being to your grocery list of inclusivity.

    I enjoy writing, but...

    Pretty sure I'd call em out on it being easy. Cause I'd it was, why aren't they doin it?

    How do I determine if my novel is good or bad?

    There are only two metrics to a web novel to define it as good. 1. You like it. 2. The readers like it. Question is: Are you writing for your self, or are you writing pop fiction?

    Would Using Real Religion in My Series Be Distasteful?

    Gods don't care, only people do.

    tips on writing isekai'd nations

    Generally nation building is done as background info for the author to reference. Most of the info is left out of the story unless it becomes relevant. Even ol Tolkien did it that way. The reason there's a world book at all is mainly because his son got his notes together and published it...

    real world rituals

    BTK serial killer was pretty ritualistic in his killing. Perhaps not religiously, but he did them all the same way. Not hard to use it as inspiration for some evil ritual.

    What's the most petty reason you've had for dropping a novel?

    Got tired of people getting railroaded by mind control, drugs, and/or slavery AND loving it. It's just lazy and mind control is just entirely too op to work in stories.

    Writing Original World vs Historical World

    As long as you stick to one area, the research isn't too bad. And depending on the location and era there's wiggle room for dates. Like bronze age had alot going on but history is spotty on most things that aren't major events. While the late middle age to victorian eras are far more well...

    What would you do?

    I'd ask, "Do you really think I have the power to create you?" Continuing with, "It's far more likely that I just divined your life and wrote it as a story."

    The money making problem in VRMMORPGs

    I don't think a game with under 100k subs is a good indication of company controlled RMT with lootable pvp being successful. And unlike Entropia, in novels, most areas beyond the starter villages are pvp. With the op talking about most areas just being lootable pvp. IRL pvp based mmos are...

    The money making problem in VRMMORPGs

    Number 1 reason that won't happen: respawns. There is just no way to realistically curb the inflation that happens over the course of a MMO's life. There's only so many gold sinks a mmo can put in without tanking game balance. Mounts, cosmetics, housing, and vanity pets. Inventory slots is a no...

    The money making problem in VRMMORPGs

    Maybe it's because I know how RM trading in an mmo works I find the vrmmo game novels to be very silly. In Eve you can't 'really' trade real money. You buy an item that acts as a 1 month sub and can trade that in game. No one can exchange that token back into money(atleast not while staying...

    Interesting fantasy races

    Or just take an established monster and make a race of them. Golems, spirits, ghosts, elementals, titans, etc. It's why orc and goblin are now playable DnD races.

    Dropping a Story

    Let's see... Author baits with a neat synapsis but I get a different story. Suddenly the tags/genre shifts to things I'm not interested in. Like, I skip harem and will always drop a non-harem story that goes that route. Going full on unrealistic JP degen H doujin in a sex scene. Like one...

    Male lead features

    I thought that trend started with Sauce-kay and died with Shadow the Hedgehog. Guess there will always be younger people who missed the Edgy the Hedgy train wreck.

    Where North Korea at?

    Generally dictatorships are ill pressed to deal with change other than to close borders and be insular. No idea what's going on? Close up so there's no risk of losing authority.

    Question: Why put two similar tags?

    Shounen means boy, so to me it "feels" like young love that later turns into adult love. There's also the option of there being two couples.
