My answers
2.5k+ and 20+ chapters.
I prefer no choices or mattering choices. I’m not the biggest fan of non-mattering choices.
It varies, but my favorite would probably be a funny and relatable MC, as for looks, I don’t mind.
The really clueless and unintelligent ones who don’t seem to know anything about anything. I also dislike MCs who are violent towards others for no apparent reason.
Someone who’s funny, a bit of an adventurous personality, intelligent and isn’t toxic.
The toxic kind. I guess I also dislike the really, really kind ones who seem to do anything and everything for MC, by that I mean kindness and naivety is basically their only traits.
Any side characters that are original (not stereotypical) and well developed. Yes, I’d love to see them more often.
Stereotypical ones with no backstory of their own and only have the purpose of boosting MC, giving her outfits and thirsting.
I don’t mind not having the choice as long as the story is good, but having the choice is a bonus.
My favorite genre is romance, but I will read any genre if the story is really good with aesthetics, directing, plot and character development.
It’s importance depends on the story quality. If I really like the story, I won’t mind not having CC.
I prefer to play as myself if given the opportunity, but if there’s no CC, I don’t mind playing as the author’s envisioned character. Either way, I’m likely to choose choices that don’t represent my real personality.
Two just in case I really don’t like one of them.
- Great covers. 2. Great original description. 3. If I’ve heard that it’s a good story.
- Stereotypical bad boys. 2. Pressing MC against the wall. 3. Kissing MC without her permission. 4. The ex who always cheated. 5. Poor grammar and spelling. 6. Toxic characters (MC or LI). 7. Mafia.
I don’t mind them as long as they aren’t on-screen for too long, otherwise I begin to get antsy and feel like I’m being held back from continuing the story.
No, just as long as it’s aesthetically pleasing, but if I know the story is great, I’ll stop caring about the covers.
It’s too broad for me to give a specific answer, but basically anything that isn’t overused.
I prefer self-made, but other people’s characters are fine if they write them well (as if they’re just other characters in the story).
Both, but if the contest is a theme I’m not really into, I’ll usually only read the winning entries.
They’re fine as long as they aren’t too long.
Don’t mind at all, as long as they’re a supporting character and written as if they’re just a character in the story rather than the author.
Around 8-9. The worst cases I’ve seen are characters wearing shorts and crop tops during zombie apocalypses and actually fighting in that sort of attire…
Hmm moderate. I’ve read stories with more basic directing but with a great storyline, I think they’re better than stories that are well directed with no plot or character development.
But advanced directing with everything else to compliment it is definitely preferable.
Skip the chapter, outfit choices.
“What if” bonus scenes are my favorite.
I read both, but sound is preferable.
I can tolerate about 5-10 spelling mistakes, but only about 3 sentences that are missing full-stops/periods.
- LI pinning MC against the wall to show his dominance and the sexual tension. 2. LI kissing MC without her permission. 3. LI being overly possessive and jealous because MC spoke to someone that wasn’t him. 4. MC slapping people. 5. Random creeps that were obvious made to look ugly in a really odd way. 6. MC admiring LI’s abs, even if he’s wearing a shirt and jacket over them.
I love funny (and cute) love-hate relationships between MC and LI before they fall in love, e.g little pranks they pull on each other etc. I also love scenes towards the end of stories where everything has built up to the moment where you expect a kiss and the characters are standing there close to each other looking into each other’s eyes.
Depends on the plot and story setting, but generally slow.
I find reader messages really annoying if there are too many consecutive translations, I also find it unrealistic for them to consistently switch between languages like that (mostly English and then one or two sentences in another language).
Very annoying. It’s becomes too bland and unrealistic in my opinion.
I don’t do anything apart from stop reading.
Don’t mind at all as long as the LI isn’t introduced really late. And no, I don’t mind if the story mostly focuses on the LI rather than MC, it’s good to see it from a different perspective.
