Looking on feedback on Kira's intro
🕑 Added 2019-07-20 23:38:06 +0000 UTCHello! I just wrote Kira's intro, and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. I was hoping to get others' feedback on it. How do you feel when you read this? Is it boring, funny, etc.? Feel free to leave comments below or msg me on discord. Thanks!

Not at all. May I have a link?

OK, thanks for the feedback!

I would say a skip button is critical, just because upon replay it gets boring to read the same text again. I don't say that the text is necessarily too long per se, it's just that presenting it in little chucks makes it really seem much longer than it would be otherwise.

Would a skip button achieve the same thing?

BTW, is this your way of saying that the scene was too wordy or boring? Or were you just saying you don't like conversations that are on a rail?
Skunkupine
Understandable. Then let me suggest an alternative: make it so you can show that entire wall of text in one interaction - show a dialog box with all the dialog in it, and a scrollbar, and let the player just scroll through it.

I see. OK, I'll consider that, but even if all the choices merge back together immediately, that's still 2x the writing, and if I want it to be comedic, that means 2x the jokes. In summary, I agree, but your suggestion is challenging to scale. Maybe I'll give these intros a second pass some day to implement your idea, that way I can work on another character's intro sooner.

Cool. Yeah, that typo is intentional.

You might try to break up that one long string of dialog, and allow some degree of choice in there - I find that I get bored with just clicking "next" in such cases, and it starts to feel like I am "on a rail".

I'm pretty sure it is written "Eureka", not "Eurethra". The rest of the dialogue looks fine to me, not too long nor boring (in the end it's actually quite funny).
