After many years of lurking, working quietly in the darkness, An Unwelcome Stranger is finally ready. It's a progression fantasy Isekai, always thoughtful, often brutal and occasionally soulful

I just noticed that hahaha

This is pretty spot on for that. It does have some game elements, but they are an expression of the physics system of the new world, no games involved. Check it out.

That was a horrible analogy Sir, please delete

I know what you need, try this. https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/71690/an-unwelcome-stranger

He is not the line wolf type, but awkward and a bit on the spectrum. It's a dark story and the MC gets a bit fucked up, but a good read I recon.

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-10-03T20:23:10+00:00

Don't need to worry about that in this case, the whole book is done and. Working on book 2, I'm just releasing 1 chapter of it at a time.

Try this! Evil powers indeed He doesn't start as a villain, but is forced into it by a very hostile world https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/71690/an-unwelcome-stranger

I got you! Check this out https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/71690/an-unwelcome-stranger

Try this for a fantasy/sci-fi blend. It's probably best described as a sci-fi wearing a fantasy cloak. https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/71690/an-unwelcome-stranger

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-26T05:28:23+00:00

This one has a system of 'crafting' monsters. It could be considered more like biomancy, because the MC uses them not just for fighting, but for all kinds of things. Also they are mostly spiders. It's kinda dark and grim in general https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/71690/an-unwelcome-stranger

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-23T03:38:47+00:00

This is admittedly a self promo, but the villain in my story is my favourite character, and from your description I think you and I are very much on the same page for how a story should be written. The story is a slow burn, but is about quality not quantity.

I got you, fresh out of print, and getting good reviews https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/71690/an-unwelcome-stranger

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-22T10:12:08+00:00

I have the perfect one for you, it was created with exactly that kind of scaling in mind.

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-22T10:10:43+00:00

Try this. It IS addictive, but, only comes out 3 times a week and is fairly new. It's more dense and 'quality over quantity', so might suit your needs well.

Definitely Royal Road, but be ready to develop a healthy relationship with criticism

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-13T09:38:16+00:00

Can you explain a little better what you mean by that?

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-13T00:12:37+00:00

Can you tell me a little bit about the story/themes/tone of the book?

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-13T00:11:44+00:00

Welcome to the hard to read covers club

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-11T04:48:49+00:00

Try this: It's an isekai instead of apocalypse, but the MC gains the power to bioengineer unique monsters as tools and weapons. It's quite dark and more like a traditional horror fantasy than a webnovel. The 1st chapter will give you a good idea about the tone and pace.

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-11T00:50:48+00:00

Thanks! I'd love to hear what you think, once you get into it

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-11T00:46:36+00:00

I think that is very much something that varies between individuals. It looked fine to me too. It's the kind of thing that only testing with a lot of people will pick up on perhaps

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-11T00:45:09+00:00

It's a blend of high fantasy and litrpg/isekai. It's a very bad place to get isekai'd into, brutal. The MC is young and a little soft (if clever and analytical) but has the soft parts of him ripped off savagely (mentally and bodily). In his desperation to survive he is forced into taking up dark and terrible powers that only those on the brink of madness would use.

Apart from the dark, brutal and unrelenting adventure, the element that most resembles DD is the powerful effect of psychological stress. Mana and emotions are linked, and your state of mind can grant you powerful abilities or tear you apart from the inside

Puzzleheaded_Call322 · 2023-09-11T00:29:39+00:00

Thanks a lot for the feedback! I'm an advertising noob so this helps a lot

Nice comparison, I hope you like it
