-1 What is your preferred chapter length and story length?
As a reader, I don’t particularly have a preference too much. If the plot is good, I don’t mind reading longer chapters, but sometimes I have to exit out and come back to them if they’re too long, just because I don’t have much time to sit down and read something all at once. So, as a writer, I tend to make my chapters 7-12 minutes long. I think. If a chapter ends up being more than 15 minutes, I end up splitting it.
-2 How important are choices? Do you prefer it if the choices matter?
II don’t really have a preference about choices. I think if the choices don’t matter at all, then they’re kind of pointless, but I can understand how they keep the readers engaged. I would read a story with or without choices, so it doesn’t matter.
-3 What is your favorite kind of MC? (looking at personality and maybe even looks)
A nice and kind MC!
-4 What kind of MC do you absolutely hate?
Mean ones. Lol.
-5 What is your favorite kind of LI? (looking at personality and maybe even looks)
Good boys
I also love shy LIs.
-6 What kind of LI do you absolutely hate?
I don’t like player boy LIs. I don’t like LIs that try to make the MC jealous by kissing others, lol.
-10 Favorite kind of stories?
High school/college stories with good boy LIs.
-11 How important is CC for you? Do you rather have limited, or none?
It depends. I usually don’t CC (or just change a few things) when I read stories. But I think most readers prefer CC, so I guess it would be good to have it.
-12 Do you like playing more like yourself, or as the character the author makes? (Like changing the name of the MC, CC, etc.)
Previous answer. I never play as myself, haha. If they ask to pick a name and don’t give a suggestion for a name, I just think of some random name.
-13 Preferred amount of LI’s? And why?
This one doesn’t matter to me. Any amount, but I think if you have more than 5 LIs, then you won’t spend as much time with the LI you want… like, it’ll get too confusing and too much.
-14 What makes you read(/click on) a story?
Whether I think I will like the plot and if the cover looks cute.
-16 Do you like art scenes?
They’re fine as long as they’re well done. Like, not too slow with the zooming.
-17 When you look at a story cover, does it matter to you whether it is edited, drawn, or maybe even a self-made picture? What kind of cover makes you click the fasted?
One thing I find weird is pictures of actual people on covers… it feels weird because episode is like a cartoon. Otherwise, it doesn’t matter. But I especially love cute, anime-like covers. I think that a cute cover (not realistic drawing, but an anime style or semi-realistic) would make me click on a story.
-18 When looking at the description of a story, what is the best thing an author could put in there? (Like questions, the amount they tell you about a story…)
Make the description have good grammar, and don’t make the sentences too long, lol.
-22 What do you think about authors putting themselves in stories? When does it get annoying? (For example, if they give themselves a big role, they just randomly show up, they use themselves as background characters, etc.)
I would say, don’t do it in the beginning. A lot of readers might get bored if they have to watch an author talk at the beginning of the story, so that’s just my suggestion.
-23 When you look at outfits, on a scale from 1 to 10, how much does it annoy you when the outfits of background characters don’t fit the setting? (Like casual clothes in a club where the MC, LI, etc. go to with exclusive clothes)
I don’t pay attention too much, lol.
-24 How important is advanced directing for you?
I think this is pretty important. Advanced directing can make it or break it in terms of how the story “feels” to a reader.
-25 What gem choices do you really dislike in community stories?
I really dislike bonus scenes, lol. I feel like bonus scenes are still a part of the story, because they’re a part of that story’s universe. Like, I want to know more about the characters and see them some more! I end up purchasing bonus scenes all the time though, haha…
-26 What gem choices do you “like” in community stories?
Maxing out points, outfits (I never buy premium outfits though, lol, maybe that’s why I “like” this gem choice
), hmmm… I don’t know what else.
-27 Do you prefer stories with or without sound? Or do you rather have a made playlist by the author? (Music, sound effects, etc.)
I prefer them with sound. If a story doesn’t have sound, but has a playlist, I don’t really bother to look it up, to be honest. I don’t even have spotify on my phone (at least I don’t think so, lol, unless it’s pre-installed), so if a story has no sound, I just read it without sound. So I do prefer it if stories have music and sound, because it gives the story an extra dimension, I think.
-28 Since most people’s pet-peeve is grammar/spelling/punctuation, how many mistakes can you tolerate before clicking off?
Just don’t make too many, lol. They don’t bother me too much, but if every other sentence is a grammar mistake, then it would bother me
-30 Are there certain scenes you absolutely love?
Cute, awkward romance scenes. Stories need more of these! I also love funny joke scenes.
35 Do you mind if the LI isn’t introduced right away? Does it matter to you if the story now really focuses on the LI?
I think that a lot of readers might get bored if an LI isn’t introduced right away. I probably prefer it if at least one LI was introduced in the first chapter.
