XNPC Ad

[CountVanBadger]

I came up with this to advertise XNPC when it releases. From what I've heard, meme ads get more clicks on Royal Road. What do you guys think?

meh

It would likely get me to click. So in that way it has done its job.

 

[Racosharko]

I dont get it.

 

[Hoshino]

What-nya?

 

[CountVanBadger]

I dont get it.

What-nya?

Not sure what there is to be confused by. There are two ways to look at this, and I feel like both make sense.
Normal life > normal life > sudden tonal shift > confusion.

Main character introduction and scene setting > secondary character introduction> plot incitement > reaction.

Smells like one of those RR bait ads.

What i would expect from the add is 2 kids of late school age getting isekaid to a world of monsters, anything else and i would give you 0.5RR stars for the bait.

 

[CountVanBadger]

i would give you 0.5RR stars

And leaving a troll rating like that would earn you a well-deserved ban. Imagine giving a book the lowest possible rating for something not even related to the story itself, and thinking you're not the bad guy.

I think if you listed the character's age in the first panel, it might have more impact. I knew some people who were 28 (or older - even one who skipped classes due to his fiftieth birthday) in college...

I dont know if that's how 4 koma work..

But seeing it's just to get people to click, I suppose it's fine...

Doesn't work. The ads on RR are tiny. This is way too much text.
If you want to go the meme route, limit it to one or two panels.

Imo, a more striking and memorable image would probably get you more results. This one is rather bland.
