Sometimes stories just have scenes that are so terrible that it makes you stop reading. Usually, terrible introduction scenes are most likely to do this, since I think that reflects on the story.
Have you ever dropped a story because of a scene?
What was one time where a single scene made you drop a story immediately?
I usually drop a story for bad introductions too, like “This is my first story” or “Sorry for bad English”. I also drop it if they describe everything, like the MC’s best friends life since their 6th birthday party on 7th June 2010 at 5:19. Not to forget bad grammar, spelling and no punctuation whatsoever. And this might not apply to a lot of people, but I drop a story once I see romance-
I was looking through my old Episode account and opened a story to find the MC in the hospital with SIX GUYS at the foot of her bed- sorry not into that-
you ever just reading the description of an amazon story and be like “hmm thats pretty interesting” but then it says ‘reverse harem’ at the end and you just have to throw it all away
Long introductions, going through each character and their personalites. Also, stories where we have to customize your family, friends and your dog’s family -
I once read a book that my aunt gave me where the MC spent a whole chapter complaining about how one of her boobs was smaller than the other to her 10-year-old sister
Honestly once romance gets involved on Episode I’m usually out becuase so few stories handle it well
The best on I’ve seen so far is probably Positively Princess, but the motivations made no sense for any of the love interests and the emo villain’s son prince was just unbareable
Gross crap and extremely graphic scenes, as well as TMI.
There was this one short story that I decided to read because it was about teaching, but ewwww there were way too many TMI/bathroom/gross references that I couldn’t even make it to the third chapter.
There were only three chapters but I was too grossed out to read the last one.
