Story Ideas
🕑 Added 2022-11-20 00:20:48 +0000 UTCHello! I bring to you a few ideas I'm toying around with currently. The titles and names are currently a work in progress but I'm interested in seeing what you guys think.

An opportunity comes in the form of a new researcher seeking to understand their family’s curse. This man has his own objectives however and through him, Jack finds a possible way to survive by becoming a necromancer.

I'm torn between two for my favorite idea, and one of the two I'm most interested in seems to be missing from the poll choices. I really like the sound of both, "Simulating My Martial Path", and "Sign-in: Emperor". The first one interest me just from the mechanics and the opportunity for some really interesting story there. The second one sound's interesting because it legitimately sounds different than anything I've read to date, so that alone makes it really intriguing. My third place is the, "I Rolled Godly Support Skills", and then all the rest sound, (to me), like they fall into themes that feel a bit overdone right now.

ISWG sounds like a really good book to write.

Simulating My Martial Path sounds the coolest
TheDjh8er
Simulating My Martial Path sounds like a lot of fun.

I think that instead of dark side I would perfer grey side. Since showing the dark side of the world is huge now a days in novels but you never see authors walking the fine moral line of grey. After all every world, dimension, realm, and plane are governed by different morals depending on the development of civilization.
Moon Winchester
I like the murim story idea since I feel like there aren't enough murim storys. The thing is that I feel like one of his talents should be [Google Search Engine] and using it he can find modern medicine, biology, training methods, and more. After all it would be an amazing all purpose support skill. You can decide though if it's locked at a certain year like 2023 or is constantly updating in real time so he can follow whats happening on earth.

Simulating My Martial Path seems to be missing from the choices.

Sounds like the perfect system for demonic cultivators...

Don't censor fiction. The best thing about fiction is its fiction. Sticks and stones will break your bones, but words will never hurt you. I have enjoyed old 50s and up scifi and fantasy novels, there is some fecked up shite in those stories. I usually skipped the disgusting shite. Toughen up my little fragile buttercup and grow some berries.
Froyo Baggins
It'll be good so long as he isn't too op in terms of what he can do in the world

I voted for the Great Refining system i think that this has the chance to be great fun along with some great fights and drama.

I personally dislike paranoid MCs and stories about the dark side :/ Could be interesting, and I could see a lot of people liking it, but not something I'd read.
ShadeByTheSea
Please no game-of-thone-esque. High court politics is one thing, but stories were characters die right and left need to no longer exist.
Gabriel Ramos
If you choose I Rolled Godly Support Skills please make a Paranoid Mc. They're amazing, but the well-written ones are hard to come by. Most xianxia authors prefer the hot-blooded youth *mockery*. A Mc with divine support skills has incredible potential whether to create a cult or a secret organization as well which are hard things to see in xianxia most preferring to focus on empires and sects. Nobody seems interested in showing the dirty side of the world, which is in my opinion a lot of wasted potential.
Aegir
My personal vote is for Sign In: Emperor. There is a distinct lack of kingdom-level dramas done well and people eat up Game-of-Thone-esque plotting. Gimme all the high court politics. That said your short blurb premise needs a little work.
Aegir
While several of the ideas have merit and it would be up to the writing...I'm only commenting for one thing. Please, for the love if all that is holy and unholy, DO NOT write another damned Necromancer story. It is worse than Defiance if the Fall copycats at this point. Everything that can be done with Necromancers has been done. Please, please no.
RepossessedSoul
I think all of these have their merits, but you need to figure out what demographics each one targets and make a plan for how you will get forward progress done on writing them while also maintaining current commitments. I, personally, like Plate Taming the best, Sign in Emperor second and God of Gobs third. You have to be careful with God of gobs because goblin fictions have a history of justifying rape or some really socially unacceptable things, or at least being a vector to express beliefs that aren't socially appropriate. Sign In emperor is a chance to work on your political and kingdom building skills but you'd have to figure out if you want to follow an epic opera setting like Dune, because I haven't seen much from you that shows a good handling of it. The politics and power struggles you've shown so far in Generosity is surface level at best. Plate Taming has a chance to push a message I personally like of working with other people to succeed and figuring out how to create healthy relationships out if power imbalances.
Andrew Webb
Plate taming is my vote. I've never been a fan of isekai where the MC is either given the choice or is too enthusiastic about leaving their old life; always comes off as wish fulfillment pandering to a certain type of audience.

Honestly I like a the ideas of the first 3 and Remade a lot
