IMPORTANT! I Really Need Your Feedback!
Added 2025-04-23 09:14:18 +0000 UTCHey everyone! I just wanted to take a moment to talk to you directly as the author—thank you so much for continuing to read and support the series. It really means a lot to me, especially during times when I’m feeling stuck or unsure about where to take the story next.
Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about the structure of the chapters, and one thing that keeps coming to my mind is this: Are the reaction chapters becoming too repetitive?
I personally enjoy writing them, and sometimes I even keep them just for myself before deciding to post. But I’ve started to feel that if I keep relying on the same reaction format—Zaboru dropping a new game and then some reacting to it—it might slow the story down or even make it feel like it’s not moving forward although it will make the game really detailed altought i already reduce it i think it still too much because ZAGE create lot of games, not to count other 3rd party and Sonaya games.
So here's my question to you:
Should I start skipping some of the reaction chapters and instead focus more on Zaboru breaking down the game mechanics, his thought process behind the designs, and what he change for the games in this world Maybe I could reserve the reaction chapters only for major events or surprises—stuff that truly deserves a big moment?
I really want to keep this story exciting and fresh, not just for you guys, but for myself too as the one writing it. And honestly… I’m super hyped for the next big arc—the Arcade Arc! It’s going to bring in a whole new vibe, with exciting developments, new characters, and crazy ideas I’ve been sitting on for months. I promise, it’s gonna be fun and packed with wild creativity! or at least i tried lol!
That said, I’d really love to hear your thoughts. You’ve been with me on this journey, and your feedback honestly helps shape the direction of the novel. Even a quick comment would go a long way. Should I keep doing reaction chapters the way I’ve been doing? Should I trim them down only for specific stuff and shift focus? Do you feel like the pacing needs a shake-up?
I’m still learning and improving as I go, and I want this series to grow along with all of us. So please—let me know what you think. Help me keep this story exciting, and even thought I'm sick and tired i still writing this!
Thanks as always for reading! 🙇♂️🔥

Just to clarify, i want more company stuff. More planning, building, hiring, innovating, and seeing ZAGE actually grow, rather then chapters about the games themselves

2025-04-23 10:00:52 +0000 UTCI myself like the reactions but sometimes I feel they can be shorter or just combined in one chapter. There were some reactions that were 5 chapters long. That being said in waiting for the zeps 2 and possibly hang out with his girlfriend more often. If she's endgame, I feel like I should know more about her than her love of bunnies and her yakuza family
