Visual novel with multiple routes and multiple bad ends, from the perspective of a grieving god's reincarnated best friend and rival, who was last alive thousands of years ago and now awakens in a more modern post-apocalyptic setting, trying to piece together what happened in his absence, what...

The colon in the first sentence strikes me as completely unnecessary, either replace with a comma or remove altogether, but otherwise, a good first sentence.

Bald. Clearly.

RR: Dust will be updating once a week until the end of chapter 1! ^^ Then we'll go back to the normal schedule!

I have a special fondness for the first person. It makes it easier to both to dig into a character's emotions and thought process, and to turn them into unreliable narrators.

The best way to make him enjoyable would be to make him funny to the audience somehow, in my mind. Either by allowing him to make jokes and observations that the audience thinks are accurate and hilarious, or to make him the butt of the joke. If you want to make him empathetic through a tragic...

Personally I write and read stories where the characters suffer a lot because that's what entertains me. Some people will write fluffy slice-of-life or power fantasy isekais because that's what they find comforting and inspiring. Not me. Watching a character drag themself through literal hell...

Regrettably, if I try to write something that's trendy and easy, there's a 70% chance my brain shuts down and refuses to write until I make it significantly more complex and difficult. XD There's a good reason I don't get very popular while others do, and whether you believe you're a good author...

I try not to. I end up doing so anyways. Quality is subjective and won't always guarantee success. Sometimes things succeed specifically because they're bad, and everyone wants to watch the trainwreck. Or it's a work that's just mediocre, but because it doesn't require deep thought and is...

Try to sprinkle it in amongst dialogue, or create situations where it's natural for characters to discuss it. In a very early scene of my own story, a character reflects on how forms of magic in this world were invented as ways to praise the gods, because she worried since for the very first...

I obsessively repeat to myself 'it doesn't need to be good, it just needs to exist.' Doesn't matter if what ends up on the page is the most putrid word vomit to ever exist, that's why we have editing.

Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint by Sing-Shong isn't quite an isekai and doesn't quite have it 'all as a lie', but does play with some similar themes to the Truman Show of everything the characters doing being watched by an 'audience,' and scenarios being staged for the entertainment of said...

Agree with previous people, if it's just two people it's fine. A bit of additional, albeit related, advice, leaving off the dialogue tags can give the impression that the characters are quickly trading dialogue and the conversation's moving at a fast pace, while adding longer descriptors between...

Considering that the excellent art of the manhua was its greatest draw, how good Solo Levelling is as an anime will probably rely entirely on how high-quality the animation and art, particularly during the fight scenes, is. If it were something like utotable doing Solo Levelling, it could...

In my story 'demons' are 'entities from hell' that cause chaos and destruction wherever they go, but I plan to slowly reveal the the story's version of 'Hell' is somewhat different from the reader's assumptions of 'Hell'. It's still a bad place, just... uniquely bad. And it's less that demons...

Epic of Gilgamesh my beloved...

I think 'NPCs Can Save The World Too!' is a pretty fun harem story so far. It helps a lot that all the love interests have personalities and interests outside the lead, have their own personal goals and desires, and form friendships and rivalries sometimes independent of their feelings towards...
