I am planning few romances.
One is demon, other is angel, third is human cop.
And mc is still one of most powerful beings in universe. But Seven seals limit them.
I think I should explain seven seals. After these seals are broken humanity faces final judgment and horsemen are sent to punish the wicked.
One seal is in kingdom of Heaven, second is in depths of Hell, third is in the hands of Order of Holy Sword (OHS for short) who are like supernatural police.
Last four are hidden around earth and they can be broken by only specific horseman.

Murder in Lazarus-city
Lazarus-city. Here lives over ten million humans. Everyday they go on their business, thinking âI know this city like back of my hand. There is nothing special here.â Yeah, maybe at day time, city opens up. If youâre right person Lazarus can be either heaven or hell, depends on your taste.
It happens that Lazarus-city is worlds biggest magic spot. Here everything supernatural can live in peace.
Or they did. Gabriel is murdered. Heaven is on warpath. Order of Holy Sword is losing control and I have lost my horse
I hate my life
Welcome to Lazarus-city.
Visit hotel Olympus for rest.
Enjoy your time in casino Inferno or club Eden.
Shop, study, work, have fun.
But donât get caught.

I have been trying to decide on how best to approach me game based on this topic youâre discussing and would like some input. I am trying to decide if I should do 1) the typical second person POV where the reader is the MC, 2) a third person POV approach where I talk about the MC by name and not âyouâ so that I can show a progression of how a character might have ups and downs in a typical novel that really is not seen in these IFs, or do a hybrid second person POV where I let the reader know that they as the character might fail at things with no possibility of success but it is more about how they decided to take their action to account hope characters arc goes up or down in a typical novel. What do you guys think? Which POV would you consider as the best POV of a COG game, or would you play a game no matter the POV?
Edit: I meant 1st person POV not 3rd.

I usually prefer a second person story since most people that attempt third person perspective here donât really know how to mesh that POV with the interactive version of writing. Regardless, if you can sell the story well and write good characters and interactions, then donât sweat it. People will read it no matter how you write the POV. I think the hybrid would be interesting though.

Alright, Update/Poll time! So work on my scenario is going great! Words are getting written, and Iâm slowly figuring out Choice Script. The outline for Entropic Vice is coming along nicely, and Iâm having a lot of fun!
Now, for the pollâs subject matter. If youâve watched the Television Series âMiami Viceâ you know that fashion is highly important to itâs whole vibe and I do not not intend to neglect that, the question is, how important is It? Tell me what you all think!
- Fashion is very important! Like, totally gimme details!
- The fashion should be notable, but itâs doesnât have to be a focus. Itâs about rad vibes, dude!
- Fashion? I came for the 80s cop drama and orcs! Fresh Prince of Bright!

@LouisTheBassman â
Fashion was one of the tri-fecta ⌠Fashion, fast cars and drugs were all equally important to that show and without all three the others donât make sense or matter⌠hope this feedback helps.
The more you can write this type of prose, the more fashion fanatics will flock to you. Once @idonotlikeusernames finds your demo, youâll have lots of fashion discussion. 
Edit 2 â I would also love focus on our own fashions just as much as our partnerâs. lol

Oh it helps, I plan on having it in there in some capacity, the drugs and fast cars and soundtrack arenât going anywhere.(I seriously have a spotify playlist) the poll is more to see how much and how often people want me to describe what The MCâs partner is wearing for example. This just made me realize I havenât introduced Your Partner⌠Need to work on a blurb about the handsome manâŚ

I love 80âs menâs fashion, while Miami Vice is iconic I would hope the mc in your story gets to visit some less sunny climes too as that would give us an excuse for awesome 80âs sweaters and leather.
But even in sunny climes 80âs shorts for guys were often deliciously short and tight. 
And that is all just the mainstream the 80âs also had a lot of interesting subcultures fashion-wise. I particularly like the 80âs (neo) romantic style we all know from the likes of Adam Ant, among others.
In short the 80âs were an immensely fun decade fashion wise for the guys, assuming they had the money to throw around of course (and as always a hot bod helps too). Too bad I was only a baby and small infant during them.
And, of course, a lot of our jacket, coat and other outerwear fashion is still basically 80âs only shorn of its delightful excesses and generally a bit more subdued.

I liked the first person narrative in the samurai of hyuga series. The way I see it, first person is a tool that puts you in the mind of a pre existing character that have their own opinions, and second should be used for when you want the reader to self insert themselves in the role.
I get frustrated when games do things like âYou were flustered by their statementâ, basically deciding your reactions to things for you. If that was going to happen they should just do it in first person imo.

While either could work, 2nd tends to be a bit easier to follow. Maybe try to run through a bit of the story and see which POV would work better for the story & characters before deciding on which to write from

I really appreciate the feedback! The MCâs fashion choices will have lots more than what youâll see in other inhabitants of the city of Alhana. You are from out of town, so that leaves a lot of room for variation and customization. I love fashion in concept (Iâm kind of basic in practice, with a few eccentricities) so I hope to capture a large variety of styles of Masculine and Feminine esthetic.
As for locales⌠Itâs still early on so I canât say for sure one way or another, but there is room to have The MC take a trip out of town⌠maybe have them visit their old stomping ground? Something Iâll have to consider.
I love the visuals you shared! The sweater in particular reminded me of stuff a couple of musicians I really like have worn before. Kanye wears a similar sweater in his âWelcome to Heartbreakâ video. And a guy by the name of Rich Mullins, a popular 80s Christian contemporary artist.
And youâre so right about modern outerwear fashion being a shadow of what the 80s (The 90s too) brought to the table. But in some scenes, both esthetics are making a return and I love It!

PS. I bookmarked that article you shared! iItâs so good and helpful! Alot of those looks are basically the stuff my dad wore and what my mom dressed me and my elder brother in for years. The Hip-hop, The Preppy and The Casual looks still influence my style choices today. And I wasnât even born in the 80s, I was born in 91!

Hello, everyone! This was my original summary for the game:
You are a doctor who belongs to a family with magical blood, practicing in a hospital owned by your family itself. Soon, patients come in who are victims of attacks in a pattern- they are all missing a heart, and are smiling in their death. With the aid of a reluctant detective, a necromancer with a flair for the dramatic, and strange spirit, you set out to find out more about the ghastly attacks as they devastate the city, but little do you know that your search will tear your world- and yourself- apart in ways that you cannot imagine.
So essentially, a mystery-fantasy-romance game (which I hope to make very story-driven).
The planned ROs are, as of now, the detective, the necromancer, and a fellow doctor/friend.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! I didnât include many details about the world the demo is set in or the main characters (since Iâm still fleshing them out), but Iâd be more than happy to share what I have. And of course, Iâd love to hear any feedback

Yup! The main storyline will, as of now, be pretty dark (leaning towards supernatural horror), but I want to balance it out with lighthearted moments with characters, too. And thank you so much for taking the time to read and comment, I really appreciate it.

In order to reconcile the vast number of possibilities that I would like to include for the players, I have decided that all paths will begin within a contractor company that specializes in deploying AI to different businesses. All testing and development will occur here regardless of path. The genius will be the leader/CEO of this company.
I have decided on an interesting prologue to determine most of the playerâs initial stats (following the life of the genius up until your creation), but I have a few questions before I begin writing it.
- Would you like to be able to choose the gender/sex of the genius (needed so I can code pronouns and verb tenses and rework character descriptions)?
- Yes
- No
0 voters
- Do you want a tutorial/glossary for the lovely mechanics and technical jargon that I am planning on including (i.e. reinforcement systems, probability displays, and terms like CVNN)?
- Yes, both.
- Yes, tutorial.
- Yes, glossary.
- No, neither.
- Something else (DM/PM with details).
