Either way, it really comes down to this: If you didn't understand what I meant in those two very concise bullet points, this tells me that you don't know what your story is.
So, let's start with that. What is your story?

Re: How do you make long story more concise?
Story is frankenplot. As in story with no story. (Yes, this is identification not confusion about what story is.) Can't revise everything else cause don't know how to code new game+ or use variables plus FSN not only way to do route branch. Even if know, it's not like that fixes it. There are VNs t...

Here you go~.
-Identify "what" your story "is".Dim Sum wrote:How do you make a long story more "concise"?

Re: Has OELVN development peaked?
...it ate my response. T_T But if I were to pick an example of what I think a "western" VN would look like, it would be Cinders. It breaks the mold JVN's have made and did something uniquely western. What does it do differently then? I played the demo and other than the art it really didn'...

Re: Has OELVN development peaked?
KS is unusual in that it was made in the English community, but approaches the scope of JVNs on a non-existent budget. Surely it's inspired many to think there is hope for the OELVN, and produced a number of idea guys who want to follow in its footsteps. However, from a game design perspective KS h...

Re: Has OELVN development peaked?
That is not true. First, I can name from memory quite a few visual novels of Japanese origin which did not initially have adult content, and which were not later adapted into adult VNs. Without looking on the VNDB, here's thirteen examples I thought of within a few minutes: the entire Tokimeki Memo...

Re: What and when to tell your musician
At the moment I'm telling him what kind of mood the track should have, give some example tracks which have the same mood, and give him an example of a scene in which it would be used. There are still misunderstandings though, so I was just wondering if I could make it even more clear, maybe by pres...

Re: Narrator thinking too much between dialog lines ?
What do you think ? Is it really annoying for you that the narrator stops talking and just think for 2 to 5 screens about what he sees, hears and feels ? Or do you prefer it that way ? Well, I thought it wasn't awkward until someone pointed it out (u_u") Actually, I didn't even noticed. It jus...

Re: Get that thing off your chest... Now...
I lost most of my writing portfolio about 2-3 years ago because of my flash drive failing, and I've been rebuilding it ever since then. It is also why I carry 3 different flash drives, and use an external hard drive along with two different cloud services. So, don't feel like you're the only one who...

Re: Seeking VN narrative help
I'll just combine the two, if you don't mind~. Character A: “What are you doing?” I stop working and look up at 'character A' Is she seriously asking me that question? She told me to fix the dog house less than an hour ago. I'll never get things done if she keeps interrupting me. The second line has...

Re: Premature endings - aka game overs?
Since everyone gave their opinions on bad endings, I'll just tell you examples of Bad Ends that I remember from the VN's I've played. 11eyes (Lass): In this VN, the majority of the decisions that you face during the transitions into the Red World typically amount to, "Pick the right decision or...

Re: Seeking VN narrative help
A way to avoid "overuse" of "I" is actually immerse/imagine yourself in that position and write what you think. If that doesn't work and you end up using "I" a lot, I'll just show you instead of trying to explain it: Around the corner, there was a door with a sign readi...
