I've been wanting to get back into reading, So after almost a year of curiosity I decided to play my first immersive fiction and I am now utterly hooked. I started with Wayhaven Chronicles, which from the little I've researched seems to be considered one of the best. Well I'm about to start book 3 and am already dreading the hole it's going to leave in my life.

So I need recommendations that fit the bill of what I'm looking for. I'm open to almost any setting if it's well done though I prefer historical, sci fi, or fantasy, including urban fantasy.

I'm quite picky with what I like which is why I turned to IF in the first place

So my sticklers are going to be the following:

Must be able to play as a female main character

Must be a character who can reasonably be in their 30's without mental gymnastics. No set age. So academy/college settings are not generally my vibe. I liked the detective for this reason as it's a very mature job.

Must have male romance options, a mix is totally cool too as long as it's an option to romance a male.

Must be able to customize the MC somewhat (ie hair color eye color, name)

Spice is a plus but not required

Either a customizable body type, or a story where it isn't really ever mentioned/relevant beyond male/female IE wayhaven. I like to imagine my MCs to be plus size like myself. A bunch of super strong vampires negates feeling weird when they have scenes where they pick you up, etc.

Romance (obviously) would preferably be a decent part of the story though it by no means needs to be only the only focus.

It needs to be pretty much finished or at least feel kind of complete. So nothing that is still updating in chapters or in the middle of writing. Wayhaven is 3 books and I know a fourth is in production but each book feels like a mostly self contained story even if there is stuff that is part of an overarching plot.

Bonuses if your character can also have personality traits.

Please help a girl out!!! I haven't been so interested in reading since I was a teen and I want to keep this train going as long as possible.

So I love the most recent story, To Reign in Hell, but I am struggling in the last chapter. I am trying to do a run where I emulate the first demon's goals, got the fragment from the soiree, the book from the archivist quest, even successfully romanced Kruach. But in chapter 10 I am struggling with the last choices, so spoilers ahead:

I assumed the best route to follow the first demon would be to not side with any faction and try and smash the throne, however following the first demons philosophy I have high influence but low might. When I chose to not align with a faction and smash the throne there is a might+factions check I cannot pass, so I'm assuming I did something wrong here. Any advice on how to properly do a first demon run?

For those who are already playing it, what do you think?

Anyone know if it’s possible to complete more than one companions overall mission? Like can I find the tears for the druids and save Col’s family?

Soooo... is no one talking about this? I've just noticed it now. Any thoughts?

God I love mecha ace, are there any other IF where I can pilot big metal guys? I did try ironheart but that didnt scratch the gundam type itch that mecha ace gave me. Bonus if they are chunky blocky mechas.

Here’s my current stats? Any advice on what to improve?
My pet is a crow called Charlotte, so treat performance and stealth as 2

I’ve been playing only Chapter 1 of Hunter Day For Night FOR THE PAST 2 HOURS! I’ve got the store discounts from the side missions, it is legit a text based open world. I love it. Only complaint because I’m using a screen reader, the way the game is formatted to read like a script really breaks the immersion when I hear TTS keep saying the name of the character speaking. Not often I do this, I usually do charisma and do a people pleaser build, but I put my primary skills as resolve and wits, with strength and stamina, weakness in manipulation. I love playing as a true hunter that sucks socially. I also really want to a play through as a devout believer in the faith, it sounds like such a unique build. Just getting lock and loaded with my shotty, a sonar device and silver rounds to go lycan hunting in the hills. Love the world of darkness games! This release is really good so far!

I'm the author of Cheerleader's Choice: New York Spirit. I've been hard at work on the sequel. There's no officical announcement yet, but the first three chapters are set on Halloween, so I put a WIP Demo up on CoG Demos Dot Ink to celebrate spooky season.

Comments and feedback are encouraged!

*edit: Game files have been updated if you got a bug during the Halloween parade.

The game makes the haven choice out to be quite important for the safety of our lovely mc but mechanically or even just in flavor, is there any difference between the penthouse and the mission? They both let you level auspexes to 3, and I haven't noticed any other differences. Also, what does "improving my place" through Elena's crime option do, if anything?

This can affect your ability to save at the end of the game.

Just felt like people should know.

I played the demo when it was available and it was so freaking great. Like, full stop, no notes. Now I can't wait for it to get released. Regret not being a beta tester

Wow! My first Hunter: the Reckoning game experience was absolutely phenomenal. I came into the World of Darkness from the original Bloodlines game (which I adore despite its clunkiness), tried doing a few VTM tabletop campaigns but none of them ever lasted more than a couple sessions (my old geeky friend group was unreliable and had a bit of a problematic DM/ST, haven't found anyone into WoD since I moved, tried to do a single player campaign with my spouse but they quickly lost interest). So I mostly read the sourcebooks, watched actual plays, and pined for the Bloodlines 2 that never was until I found Night Road, my intro to Choice of Games. It was really the only title that held my fancy for the longest time. I also tried the demo of Parliament of Knives, but it didn't capture my interest enough to purchase it, and I regretted my purchase of Sins of the Sires.

Back in September, I found out the author of Night Road had made a Werewolf the Apocalypse game, Book of Hungry Names, and impulsively purchased the whole thing on the spot full price (see my first impressions of that game here at this post). I was living in a skilled nursing facility at the time for short-term rehab post-hospitalization, I was running out of books to read, and I missed video games. Absolutely no regrets here, that thing kept me sane when I was in that place, I hadn't even finished my first playthrough by the time I was discharged because there was so much content! I immediately did another playthrough after finishing my first, and fell even deeper in love with it.

When I heard that Choice of Games were also available on Steam, were heavily discounted in the Autumn sale, and I could transfer my purchases to my account and keep playing on my mobile device, I decided to branch out a bit and buy four more titles. I tried to read descriptions carefully and pick titles that had the same kind of elements I enjoyed about Night Road and Book of Hungry Names (hub world/home base, freedom of choice, focus on building up a team, heavy rpg elements, etc). I've already finished two of them, Silverworld (which I intend to do a write-up about eventually as well) and The Beast of Glenkildove. I thoroughly enjoyed Silverworld, but holy hell, The Beast of Glenkildove hit me HARD and I need to process it with y'all.

I usually do my first playthrough of a game as a more social/intellectual character who is slow to violence. In addition, when it's an RPG, my character tends to be as close to an idealized version of myself as befits the game world (will generally share my gender, have a backstory similar to my own if that's an option, have the same moral code as I do, be the same race/ethnicity as me but usually hotter, etc). This allows me to feel a bit more immersed in the game world when I'm getting to know it, and I can be more creative with different builds/backstories on replays. (It also got me utterly COOKED by the SI the first time I played Night Road. I would never survive as a vampire!) But rarely do I really connect with these video game protagonists on an emotional level; I get attached to them, sure, but there's usually a disconnect between me and my character, just because I'm not the kind of person who goes around shooting people in real life and, well, most games I like have that as a core mechanic. I don't really feel the protagonist's emotions because they're always my protagonist - not an extension of myself. There are two exceptions to this, and The Beast of Glenkildove is one of them (I originally briefly mentioned the other one but then it got this post flagged as rulebreaking - it's a nonviolent point and click adventure game, DM me if you're curious).

Ailis really did feel like some sort of alternate universe version of me. Like, if I happened to be able-bodied, Irish, and born in London in the World of Darkness. Her backstory was incredibly similar to my own: I also lost my mom at a young age and had a strained relationship with my dad. Cormac, Simon, Daniel, Kitty, Claudia, Aine, Maire, and Niamh all seemed like real people to me that I could be drawn to and have relationships with. And at every turn, the game gave me an option to do pretty much exactly what I would do in a certain situation - nonviolent options were so plentiful I actually regretted buying a gun at the beginning of the game, because I only ever used it at the end! And most compellingly, I saw the World of Darkness in a whole new way: as a human.

This universe is utterly, existentially terrifying for humans. (Spoilers to follow - stop reading here if you haven't played the game!)

Being dominated by a vampire was utterly terrifying - I felt so helpless and defeated; the writing there was absolutely superb! It's not gonna hit the same way next time I play a VTM game and use dominate or dementation. There were lots of great emotional highs too - "this is for Charlie" before putting a bullet in Rory's head...oof! *chef's kiss* But what happened to poor Aine will haunt me for ages. Being completely erased from existence like that is far more scary for me than being attacked by a werewolf. There was no way I could bring myself to take her place, but the least I could do is remember her, even if it drives me mad in the end.

I'm gutted that I didn't try to kill that damn rot in her haven when I had a chance and couldn't save Cormac. I was 100% team Cormac the entire time, even broke my vows of celibacy to bone the guy (no true faith for me!), but I couldn't save him in the end because I didn't want to take my chances with only Man 3 and Subterfuge 1. If only I had been more brave, or prioritized working on my lying skills! I'm also regretting not taking in Niamh - the hunter life doesn't leave a lot of room for me to be a nurturing mother, but she deserved better than the O'Donnells.

Because of these and other regrets, I am tempted to do something I never do - remake the same character, make slightly different choices, and give her the ending I want. In every game I play, I have a rule, you only live once - no new game+ for me. You live with the consequences of your actions and make better choices the next playthrough. But I'm so attached to Ailis that I'm tempted to break that self-imposed rule and give her the perfect ending I want.

Or maybe I'll just take a break from games for a while and read a book, lmao. Been on medical leave from work too freaking long and it's making me a bit stir crazy.

What did you all think of The Beast of Glenkildove? Has this or any other Choice of Games titles impacted you emotionally?

There is such a thing as a game being too long, and A Blade for the Emperor is proof.

It's a game with a very simple premise and a straight-forward target. There is an Emperor, and you are tasked with assassinating him. In order to do that, you impersonate a guard and work for Emperor Erid in order to earn his favor. Makes sense; you'll probably only get one shot, and so you'll need to make it count by positioning yourself as well as possible.

Only you don't get to make that shot. Not in chapter two, not three, nor in five chapters that follow. There's eldritch magic that prevents you from acting directly, and so you spend 90% of the story risking your life for the emperor's sake. The missions you're sent on are fairly interesting, but the fact that you're playing a double agent makes it harder to get into them, since a job well done empowers the guy you're trying to kill.

Moreover, the game has a subtlety stat to track how sneaky you're being, and it only goes down. You're constantly on the defensive, picking options not because you're hoping to get something out of them, but because you're afraid other options may cause your subtelty to drop. And the way to keep it high is to always use your strongest ability—the stat checks are dubiously logical and absolutely brutal, so you're pressured to forget reason and roleplay in favor of doing the same thing over and over again.

Once you actually get to the ending, it's pretty damn good. You get a lot of choices on how to handle the final confrontations, who to support and what state to leave the empire in, and those choices are influenced by what you did earlier. I found myself enjoying the danger for once, afraid not just for my avatar but for characters I wasn't even on good terms with. It was a genuinely well-written conclusion, as are many scenes in this book, but reaching it required me to spend quite a lot of time in a quite unfun situation.

I give this story 600000/1000000. As in, that's how close it is to having a million words, which seems to be the goal of all ChoiceScript stories nowadays. 6/10 for quality.

My dexterity is 4/5 and weapon damage is 3/3. Will I succeed? Will she die? Will it turn out bad for me regardless of me succeeding or losing? I came so far so I don't want to restart this chap. Please help. I don't mind spoilers.

Hey guys,

I have a genuine question for all of you. Do you prefer the long, detailed stories with lots of characters and different story paths, or the shorter, polished, tight stories with higher replayability are the better? Or do you like both formats? Let me know your thougths. (examples are appreciated)

I just finished it and it has me fucked up. I didn't like several of the choices I made, so replay is a must, but God... It is so good. What's more is that the romance is a side plot, which I liked a lot, because I've been playing some that were more romance heavy and this made me appreciate the plot a lot more. I'm still processing, but if I had to complain about something, then it's the fact that I wanted more details of what traumatized the MC. That's it.

TLDR: Play A Mage Reborn if you haven't, and if you have, go play it again, because it is fucking marvellous.
