    If you got to choose, would you rather have a traditional afterlife of your choice or be reborn in a magical world with cheats?

    I was thinking about this question and concluded I’d rather be reborn in a nice fantasy world with some cheats. I’m curious what other people think about it.

    We may never know the truth, but it does always have a suspicious look in its eyes.

    Happens all the time. Actually, my cat wrote this entire thread when it walked across my keyboard.

    Because you’ve already clicked it. Just admit it. You can’t deny it. Because you’re bored. I mean, why else would you be reading this? Because you’re hoping I’ll say something clever. Unfortunately, you are already disappointed, but it’s too late. Time only flows in one direction.

    how to acquire more readers

    Let me tell you the secret. Under the light of the full moon, you must prepare an altar made entirely of best-selling books. Then you must offer a sacrifice to the writing god of precisely 5 oz of ink, three pages of your own writing, and the first tear you shed due to lack of readership. Then...

    Romance and Harem poll

    Whatever type of ‘love stuff’ the story has, I prefer it to be comfortable. I don’t like the kind of roller coaster romance with lots of misunderstandings. I also don’t like a lot of ‘onions,’ as I like to call them, which basically means characters who are sad because MC rejects them. I like...

    What do you think of this idea for the story I'm working on, The Plague of Butterflies?

    Fantasy has infinite possibilities, so there is no need to be limited to a few popular tropes. In my story, mortals are the source of the god’s power, but faith isn’t the only way to get power from mortals. I talked about this in another comment, so to avoid repetition, I’ll leave it at that...

    What do you think of this idea for the story I'm working on, The Plague of Butterflies?

    In this story, mortals are the source of the god’s power, but faith isn’t the only way to get power from mortals. It's the most common way, but not the only one. 1. The most common source of divinity for such gods is their believers. The Godhead gathers the faith of the believer, and that...

    What do you think of this idea for the story I'm working on, The Plague of Butterflies?

    I didn't word things well. I never intended The Plague of Butterflies to be the title of the story. It's just an idea for a monster. The book doesn't have a title yet, but I'm thinking of naming it 'Darkness Online.' As for some of the questions. "Why is Robert trying to summon gamers?" He...

    What do you think of this idea for the story I'm working on, The Plague of Butterflies?

    Let me give some details about the story. Two worlds are involved in the story. A post-apocalyptic fantasy world (no name yet) and a future high-tech version of Earth. In regard to the post-apocalyptic fantasy world: The world was a fairly generic fantasy setting before the invasion. It...

    What do you think of this idea for the story I'm working on, The Plague of Butterflies?

    Well, the story does have some horror themes to it, although it's not really a horror story since it focuses on a lot of players who can't really die. For most of the normal people in the world, it might be a horror story. Anyway, I need a lot of weird monsters for the world, and this is one of...

    What do you think of this idea for the story I'm working on, The Plague of Butterflies?

    The Plague of Butterflies consists of bright, multicolored butterflies. When the butterflies land on living creatures, it causes their bodies to mutate and produce more butterflies. This can create a chain reaction that can wipe out whole cities.

    Would you rather be a furry or a sexless human?

    I'd like to know what benefits there are to the other two lives other than genitalia. Which group lives longer? What are the worlds like? Which group enjoys a better quality of life? As for whether I can have sex or not, it isn't that big a consideration, at least not in the situation you...

    If AI becomes better than humans at everything, will human life lose some of its meaning?

    Well, that could be argued, but I think many people feel a connection to humanity and would feel differently if a human being is better than them than they would if a completely alien being is better. Also, a human being who’s better than you at something isn’t usually good at everything, and...

    If AI becomes better than humans at everything, will human life lose some of its meaning?

    People often value and admire those with great ability, so I wonder what will happen someday if humanity becomes completely inferior to AI. Will we still be able to see ourselves in the same way? Will it seem like human existence has lost some meaning?

    What do you think of the terms ‘internal’ and ‘external’ as used in Chinese fantasy novels?

    If you’ve read much in the way of Chinese cultivation or martial arts novels, you’ve probably heard the term ‘external things’ being used in a negative light. I’ve often thought about the difference between 'internal' and 'external' in Chinese fantasy. Different authors seem to categorize it...

    Is there such a thing as trying to hard to sound epic?

    My thoughts on the matter are that you can’t expect too much in the way of feelings from readers early on. Many authors are deeply invested in their stories, so of course they have strong feelings about certain parts of their story that they wish to share, but they sometimes fail to realize it’s...

    Litrpg system

    I prefer systems that give a small number of abilities that are used often to systems that give lots of abilities that are rarely used and hard to keep track of. It’s kind of annoying when I feel like I have to use notes to keep track of things or if I notice that the author seems to have...
