I have one question to ask. Has episode always insisted we purchase every choice we make. I remember reading a Episode classic and only having to worry about the tickets to refill every 4 hours.
Is it just me, or is it getting really annoying having to purchase every choice you make? I want to read a story and be given the options without paying with “GEMS” for everything. I am currently reading one of my favorites Fake Love True Love and I want my character to be bold, strong, and not afraid to speak her mind. But since I don’t have enough GEMS my poor character had to suck it up and “Beg for another chance”.
I think it’s a cool thing, but I think that the GEMS should be only meant to purchase outfits, not to make a difficult choice.

YES! Not ganna lie, I live for episode. I still remember being introduced to it by my cousin back in 2012.
This Diamond thing is fairly new. And it’s kind of getting on my nerves.
The four hour thing I can wait, 'cuz I have other stuff to deal with.
But the diamonds are annoying.
I mean, it would be cool if things costed 5 or even 10 to 15, but 32?
It’s ridiculous

Yes, I played episode from earlier times too and gems were never a thing! Also, the passes slowly increased in number depending on the amount of chapters you have read.

It is annoying because I will be honest. I am not willing to spend money on an online game and a lot has changed from before. Like the original Campus Crush had no gem choices but now gem choices change the plot greatly ugh

And if I want to choose something that costs 20. I have to sacrifice my only 4 tickets to get the gems I need for the other story…

Yeah, it also has become sexualised as well (in other words, a machine for profit)…
Lol I have a story of my own and my friend asked if I made gem choices as she reads featured stories in which (the current ones) use gem choices heavily… Personally, I could never imagine myself using gem choices for my readers even if I were to reach a high level of success (a woman can dream ) I just could not make my readers pay so it affects the story.
However, some authors ask readers to donate some gems at the end of the chapter which I think is alright because readers do not feel like they are being forced into anything.

Exactly - need to read another story to get more gems

Lol I was thinking about that too. Thinking that if I somehow got thousands of readers and I get featured, I’d probably only ask for gems when a character is going to buy an outfit. IDK if you guys know Joseph Evans, but I truely look up to him. Through out the years, he has stayed cautious about using to many gemed choices
