It’s something I noticed on Reddit and discord when I frequented there. Some IFs fan bases has a crossover with Crusader Kings fans so you’ll get some readers like this every now and then. I remember seeing it with KaE readers. Most of it is “memes and jokes”, but some of them go overboard. You’ll mostly find them in Royalty/Medieval IFs with the keep it in the family/pure bloodline “jokes” that are brought up so often it gets weird and makes you raise an eye.
No... he created a Tumblr... uh-oh
Seriously, he got it right by not interacting at all. Minimal presence but maximal effort and result is the way to go. Now that he's on Tumblr (and why is it always Tumblr?) I just can't help but worry a little for a lot of things
It's only time until he creates a Patreon page too (or is it already there?). Nothing wrong if he makes one tho. But I'm seeing a pattern with authors who have patreon
I mean, Tumblr is a concern since it's a shithole disguised as gold but I don't think patreon should be a big concern considering his track record. There's plenty of authors with patreon who still push out content. Just hope he doesn't become one of those authors who only writes side stories every once in a blue moon.
I hope its just a minority of the fanbase that has a loud voice. Y'all weird af.
He did make one, but I still have a slight of hope for him, since he is proven can commit to his writing. Just the fanbase is bunch of weirdos
I don't think the real lesbian reader want anything to do with this abomination. It's just bunch of people who fetishizing this kind of thing.
Ywah, i hope at least he's already grow some kind of resistance since the tumblr user can be... horny to 'not-to-know boundaries' kind of degree.
Don't think it'll change much, his pfp tells me that zero effort is being put in this tumblr.No... he created a Tumblr... uh-oh

Checked it out a bit, and the replies seem very frequent but also short, not like the infamous author writing pharagraphs after pharagraphs for the sake of it
Dang y’all, I've been away from the IF community for a few months and haven’t really had the time to read or keep up with any IFs anddd I feel like nothing's really changed
. Silly me for thinking I’d have a nice amount of content to read. Anyway, has anyone read To Crown a King? Cause I didn’t like that one.

The description sounds pretty awful and it looks like it's another gender-locked female.Dang y’all, I've been away from the IF community for a few months and haven’t really had the time to read or keep up with any IFs anddd I feel like nothing's really changed
Yeah, it's gender locked and I'm almost 99% sure that the author wrote it based on a sort of fetish that they have that I'm not sure I can say on here
.
*looks at City Girl*
It seemed right up my ally then I checked the writer's Tumblr and realized it's gonna be misery p*rn. I like trash collecting and red flags but all these stories have are assholes with no redeeming qualities.
Oh my, I opened this thread to complain about this game. It was recommended to me because I like red flags and morally ambiguous ROs. But as it turned out, all of this author's games are just pandering to a single fetish. The main character is always a childlike, naive girl who either loves what is happening to her without understanding it, or doesn't love it but can't do anything about it anyway.

Yup, that was one of my gripes. The MC was really infantilized and it made everything 10x creepier.
Eh. I can handle all the infantising of the MC since she's hardcoded to be shy and has been sheltered, and shoved away into a nunnery for most of her life before being plucked out of it days before she becomes of age. It makes sense, especially since the person who comes to "save" her is basically an uncle she looked up to. But what I can't stand is the illusion of choice. You can either be: anxious, scared or terrified. Are those all synonyms of one another? Absolutely. Because each choice is only picking from levels of fear, and if you do manage to find a choice where your character isn't entirely nervous... no you didn't! Because she'll be back to being wary again and absolutely NOTHING matters, except for which romance route you go down. At that point, the author should just write a book, or a fanfiction as a Targaryen insert.
I get that but I was more so talking about the characters speaking about the MC as if they’re a child. Makes me uncomfortable. Stories just not for me
. I’m not a big fan of genderlocked stories with minimal choices anyway so imma pass on this one.
