The Soul Stone War (WIP)— Full Demo Uploaded, Guide to Secret RO on #1124

@MissRagdoll It might also be a browser issue, depending on which one you’re using. Apparently, the latest Firefox update did some security upgrades that borked some ChoiceScript things. There’s a thread on it somewhere around here, but I can’t find it right now.

OH MY FREAKING GOODNESS I AM USING FIREFOX, UGH. kay, good thing you suggested that @Hannya bc i was just like, two more attempts away from flinging this computer and myself off the window after deleting cookies and closing and restarting everything. lets see if I can find that thread, thank you so much yall.

update: I just tried on chrome and it isnt working either. I dont know what I’ve triggered today but I’m about to cr y

@MissRagdoll Can you tell me what your choices are in this chapter, before the sirens part?
Cause I don’t understand why it’s cutting off for you, and I can’t replicate it… I need more info…

okay finaly I replicated the choices!!
Thanks @Morgan_V, let’s see… my last save was here :


after this I found that any option except for the first one
“why are you being so kind to me?”
leads to the game to be stuck after the choice to fight the sirens or hide behind morkay and strassa. I’ve tried again, and this is the only thing that works.

it’s: any other choice but “why are you being so kind to me?”
my exact choices have been:
“You’ve been so gracious toward me, and I appreciate it, I really do. But I need to know the reason behind the courtesy.” You don’t want to get on his bad side, but you deserve to know at least this much.
“You feel a vague sensation crawling up your spine, like the feet of a thousand moving ants. You should leave.”
“There! Beneath the surface of the water! A glimmer of light, there and then gone again. A scale!”
“The sirens are here! We must tie ourselves down before they start singing!”
“Hide behind Morkai and Straasa!”

So only if you choose “why are you being so kind to me?” it loads? It doesn’t load with the other options?

exactly.

I honestly can’t replicate it, everything loads for me. I’m going to upload the file again, see if that makes a difference.

I’m so sorry to bother you, I dont know what’s going on either…

You’re not bothering me at all, I want to help find what’s the problem. I just can’t replicate it!

I’ve edited my walkthrough to show the exact choices that lead to the PLAY AGAIN.

“You’ve been so gracious toward me, and I appreciate it, I really do. But I need to know the reason behind the courtesy.” You don’t want to get on his bad side, but you deserve to know at least this much.
“You feel a vague sensation crawling up your spine, like the feet of a thousand moving ants. You should leave.”

“The sirens are here! We must tie ourselves down before they start singing!”
“Hide behind Morkai and Straasa!”
thank you again

Oh my god. This demo just made me smile geniunly and laugh mirthfully a thousand times!

I’ve already grown attached to a gorgeous sourpuss and I’ve envisioned our quite bright future togather so I’m (anxiously) looking forward to the rest of the story.

It’s refreshing to finally read a story that actually focuses on the dynamics in the relationships between the characters rather than solely on the fights and the punches (not that I didn’t love those in the story! I enjoyed burning eveything very much).

Thank you very much for the wonderful experience that is reading this demo and I wish you the best of luck in writing the rest of it.

The only thing, I don’t like about this is the Title.

@Amethyste Thank you so much for your amazing message! :heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes::heart_eyes: It really gave me an awesome boost to know that my story was so enjoyable for you! I just love focusing on interpersonal relationships, not just between the MC and the companions, but between the companions themselves too! But I also love epic battles and feats of valor sprinkled with a healthy dose of humor! So to hear that I’ve hit the sweet spot with you is such a boost to my determination to finish this! THANK YOU❤ (Also, Morkai is indeed gorgeous :sunglasses:)

@lolz :sweat_smile::sweat_smile::sweat_smile::sweat_smile: I’m glad you liked everything else! :joy:

And a little progress update, I’m almost done with Chapter 7! I’ll definitely have it done by the end of next week and then we’re one chapter closer to the end! Weeehee! :grin::grin::grin::grin:

If you changed the title to “The Soul Stones War”, emphasis on the s at the end of Stones it might get this reaction less. Due to the fact that there is only one soul stone in Marvel, and there are multiple in your story. Just a suggestion.

I mean, if we’re dropping suggestions for the title now then here’s mine: “Soul Stones: The Conflict”. Alternatively, you could replace “stones” with “gems” or “shards”.

Or Soul Emeralds: Chaos Wars.
