Hi, just want to let you know it gives me an error when I want to leave the store in chapter 2.
Also, in chapter 2 part 1 when you can chose to read Virgil’s POV or Blaine’s POV after Blaine exits Virgil’s office, if you chose Blaine’s POV first it goes to the Virgil one.
(I should have mentioned these earlier because they were there the previous update but I forgot )
Honestly, I’m glad I’m doing it cause it has improved my English so much! Like, I am preparing to give these competitive exams in an year and there are like 3 English subjects and just reading so much and writing daily helped a lot
Fixed! As for the error trying to leave the store, uhhh, what’s the error? I kinda checked the code and there shouldn’t be an error, (Also I haven’t fixed the John/Elizabeth with MC blushing error since that’s in chapter 3.2 or the MC/Blaine getting flirted with by Vale/Vivian since it’s later and I’m still rewriting chapter 3.1 (Ironically I JUST finished up removing the entire flirting scene and asked myself wtf I was doing saying this to let you know that I still have your feedback at heart and if you haven’t seen the difference, it’s cause I’m slowly getting there!)
I’m still getting the same problem, but I don’t mind I always read POVs anyway
Don’t worry I just started reading it again because I was bored and I like how cute Blaine is lol but I will wait for the rewrite to go further in chapter 3 (sorry but I really don’t like John lol great character but not for me)
Anyway, take all the time you need I will wait no matter what, I really enjoy your writing
Just want you to know that you’re one of the nicest writers I know!
And btw, I saw you mention your english, well, I’m not a native english speaker (and I know my english can be bad sometimes) but I think you’re really good, and I really appreciate the work you put into this!
OK still enjoying it but, multiple times the doctor is reference as him and her in the same paragraph, playing with female doctor, Blaine is occasionally be referenced as him in one paragraph then her in others again female Blaine, Vivian/Vale referenced as male and female again chose female, all happen in multiple places and on a mobile so can’t screenshot.
I feel too heartbroken for finishing the demo in 3 days, then getting depressed more knowing Alex won’t be brought back again even though we reached chapter 5… LIYE is my new obsession and I can’t express how much I LOVE IT AND WISH TO SUPPORT YOU GUYS!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PROVIDING US WITH THIS BEAUTIFUL STORY!!! (˘︶˘).。♡(ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ.✧:sparkles: (Ps: not me picking up every flirting option with Vigil like an unhinged gremlin. Anyways, there’s a werewolf RO:exclamation_question_mark: This can’t be a short book at this rate.. when will they be revealed? The excitement ahhh)
Hopefully in the later chapters? (The rewrite reached chapter 3.1 so I’m hoping that it’s after that >.<)
Don’t worryyy!! He’ll be brought back in chapter 6! Honestly I’d have reached that part by now but I felt like a rewrite was necessary because of so so many characters acting out of character
Vigil did become a popular choice with women for some reason, like, my friends convinced me to put him up as a RO and I was like “Aight but I’m judging ya’ll”
It isn’t, I think it might come close to 600-700K but all characters will be introduced at chapter 6! There are only 2 more RO’s left to reveal ^-^
A little rant for now. I know that’s a lot of words deleted but I feel like a lot of them were filler words. I kinda want to focus more on the plot and show case the characters. I’ve come to realize that LIYE is not a world building book where I have to describe all the Fauna and Floura. Yes, I will be describing the factions with in the Ordo Solathis but everything else is similar to Earth. So without further ado!
The 3rd chapter went from being 16K to now being 8K.
There are more interactions with Valentine. I gave them a more caring side especially when the MC is vulnerable cause they hate seeing that. Make no mistake, they’re still bat shit crazy, but now they’re more understanding and caring type of batshit crazy.
I don’t know why but I made it so that the Church members knew the MC was trans from the get-go, which lead to them disapproving of it (since they’re church members). I removed that since it kinda doesn’t make sense. Now only Blaine knows it.
Adrian is now more active in the third chapter, giving MC advice, and even on occasion, giving MC a burst of power to get them out of a situation.
I’ll be updating the book tomorrow or after tomorrow on Patreon and then post a public update next week! Thanks for all the patience, and thanks so much for being part of this amazing journey! (P.s I love ya’ll and I hope you have an incredible week )
I feel bad for Melissa. Like my mc feels bad for Melssia liking him so he flirts but he really wants Alice. Melissa derseves love though might have to make two mc because i kinda feel bad.
That’s a relief! Can’t wait to cheat on everyone again with the werewolf RO in the future- Ahem! I mean to bond with them like a vampire gentleman and a good friend.(◕ᴗ◕✿) (Why I always pick doomed yaoi options? Have no idea heh)
Yeah I’m conflicted as well. Totally not enjoying Melissa’s reactions of checking us out and being teased at every chance I get to especially the date u can have. But I enjoyed our childhood friend romance despite it being brief. So help me when we rescue them since the MC feels so awful about it.
I’m definitely staying away from V now after what happened in chapter 5. They are crazy and need help. What I felt about them before is gone. I get it. Their situation sucks but doing that isn’t achieved anything but driving distance. For someone wild and outgoing, they have some insecurities.
I was never a fan of V as an RO, but I will admit that the scene you’re referring to is pretty much exactly what their character would do. The story goes out it’s way to tell you they’re broken. Now tbf you could probably have whiplash since I didn’t play her romance path, avid Melissa fan here, I only picked the different options when the MC woke up. But flavor text aside I think you should have seen this, or something similar coming.
Well I didn’t go for it right away since I tried Mel rewrite RO. The only thing I have against Mel is how she introduced. I liked the old version where she came after the accident that broke the MC and the MC was trying to keep everyone away. She really had her work cut out in that version. Whatever courage I had to try even with the risk being found out disappeared completing the rewritten game for the first time. I just didn’t like how the talk happened. V is just a I can fix you RO. I guess it’s in character for them but it’s not for me.
Well, yes. They are trying to drive distance between themselves and the MC because they’re scared of getting close to someone. They’re looking for any and all excuse and it isn’t “Nooo, I don’t love you </3 Secretly loves you” it’s more “Don’t break me more than I already am,” If the MC isn’t gay or Lesbian, they do accept the MC but even then it’s still hard for them.
a lot of people were complaining about the MC being too weak and being too broken and how it was a bit forced ngl, which is why I changed. The MC does push away people, but it’s not to the point that they look like a edge lord. Maybe I should add an option later on that makes the player choose how they want to show their grief. (WHY DO GOOD IDEAS COME TO ME AFTER A REWRITE)
Update time!
chapter 3.2 is now 15K words (started as 19K words)
A lot of filler words were removed and since I know how to code properly, the repeated paragraphs just to change 10-15 words are now condensed. It was a massive massive pain but I’m glad I did. It’ll make rewrites going forward better.
V is going to be more chaotic but will apologize because the gremlin can’t change overnight. Gonna take some time.
That’s pretty much it. I rewrote around 7K words and deleted 4K and added around 1K something. Hope you guys have a great week ahead of you!
@Silly_Cat_69 Jw if we could get more friendship options in ch2 eating lunch where we can be timid or emotional instead of A or S and not lose friendship pts? Or maybe add the pts to make up for it or smithing? I always end up stoic just eating w M and passing the solathis test…
Will do! Also I know you asked that question but I went to 300K then started rewrite and now it’s 280K (Might go all the way to 250K since I know how to code more eddiciently) but yeah! I’ll fix all the things by morning and then post the update tomorrow!
