Discussion: importance of choices

Hello Episodians, i’m Varil :smile:
I’m new to Episode and I’m learning to write a story.
Let’s dive right in the topic.
And choices is the biggest problem for me now.
I know that there are a lot of readers who love effective choices, for example each choice they choose may effect to the main character’s relationship with the others, or affect to the ending. In my opinion, I literally can’t make effective choices. Although I know this is “Episode Interactive” but it’s my own story, it means I have already created the storylines, how it goes and include the ending.
I don’t mean that I wouldn’t put choices in my story, but my choices only decide how will it happen to lead to that ending choices won’t affect to the ending

What do you guys think? Please share your thoughts below. I will be so appriciate :heart:

My most favorite story on this app doesn’t have many choices and the choices do not impact the ending. It is more like reading a visual book than a choose your story. Each reader is different. Some want choices that matter, some just want choices even if they don’t really impact the story (clothes or reaction to situation) and some just want a good quality story. Some stories even have choices that don’t matter, but then one choice at the end that determines which ending you get.
