'It Lives Within is seriously SOOOO good I can’t handle it!! I haven’t been this excited about a choices games in years, maybe even ever! It feels like all the good things about Choices while having even more. Genuinely can’t believe this is fanmade. Kudos to the team!'

I’m actually really enjoying The Princess Swap. I like both Clarke and Devin, I’m a sucker for the cheesy twinanigans, and I enjoy both conflicts (save the sorority vs international diplomacy). I haven’t felt pressured to spend diamonds for the most part. So yeah I’m happy so far.

#hopefully it lasts… #the princess swap #playchoices #choices #choices stories you play

[brokebychoice]

Maybe I’m just misunderstanding but you have been able to flirt with Clarke yeah? Unless you just mean this past chapter

Devin has had two kiss & flirt options and Clarke? Zero

absolutely SCREAMING at all the abel x mc moments AND WE'RE ONLY 3 CHAPTERS IN!! I'm not kidding, I was ready to cry at the fake girlfriend scene in the hospital when she tells him his hands are his best feature AFTER HE TOLD HER THE TRAUMA BEHIND THEM (and the whole "you know you made the right choice") HDHDHSHDHHWHS YOURE KILLING ME HERE

-abel simp anon (having the time of my life)

THE HANDS 🥰🥰🥰

One of my favorite scenes tbh, it’s subtle encouragement but it really means a lot to Abel, as I’m sure you can tell.

I’m so glad you’re enjoying it Abel simp anon!! I get the feeling you’ll continue to enjoy the updates as they come ;)

It Lives Within Discord Server!

Hey all! @dynamic-beast and I have been working on a Discord server for fans to discuss It Lives Within!

We have a lot of the basics set up, but we could use some help with some of the technical stuff for the server. For example, I’ve been having a hard time with the channel permissions and allowing people to create their own roles.

We’re looking for 2-3 people who:

Is on Discord and is a fan of ILW and @itlivesproject (obviously)

Has some experience with creating and moderating servers

Has the availability to help moderate/maintain the server

Other than that, anyone is free to “apply.” If you’re interested, you can message me or my co-creator on Discord at dynamic_beast#8511 or miscellaneousbean#0038. Please include in your message your experience and timezone.

Thanks!

@dynamic-beast and I have started putting something together!

i know you guys already ruled out a subreddit for ilw, but how about a discord server? 👀

So we actually just reached out to the mods on r/choices and they agreed to create a special flair for our project! One of the member of ILP team will post a chapter discussion thread on the subreddit (similar to other Choices books) where you guys can discuss and theorize, as well as make regular ILW related poste, using the new “Fan Project - It Lives Within” flair.

Aside from that, we won’t make the discord ourselves because we don't have the time to worry about moderating, but if someone wants to make one we'd be happy to join and to post the link on our blog!

I wanted to love WTD but...I can’t. The relationships are so shallow. Troy’s supposed to be our best friend and yet I’ve hardly said a word to him? I’m not romancing him, but why should time with a love interest (or anyone) be paywalled and limited to those romancing them? And seeing that chapter 18 was the last chance to spend time alone with an LI, despite the fact there’s still two chapters to go, does NOT bring confidence. It feels like my MC cares more about May than Eli 🙄

I hate the smut books as much as the next person but this has just gone ice cold. Why is it suddenly so hard to BALANCE the books 😭

TBH valid take. I loved WTD for the world, the story, and the overall vibes but it does lack in the characters/dynamics development department.

Personally one thing that attracts me to life-or-death situations in fiction is the "Despite the hell, I'll love you til the end of the world" of it all. Romance is just better when y'all are doomed. Dead. Dying. Whatever.

WTD wanted us to be mediator for the hippies and the knights and for that irrelevant little girl so badly that they totally forgot about the LIs and that's where they failed, conisdering 90% of us are here to get down and dirty in the more-than-literal sense.

Surprisingly, I think that the best relationship the writer's developed was Dick Dirk's. He was obivously pissy about literally everything throughout the book, but he and MC were just at odds the whole time. The reasons were weak, but the betrayal made sense.

If I were writing this book, perhaps I'd let the new colonists come to us for aid, focus more on building the relationships simultaneously with the colony, and then have the player lock in an LI who then is kidnapped by the hive. MC's decision to save them would make much more sense seeing as they prioritize them over the rest of the colony, and that would ultimately set off Dirk's betrayal. Our LI lives or dies depending on how well we did with the colony. MC asks if he would have done the same for Brynn, seeing as she's alive, and the Big Decision at the end would be Dirk choosing to kill either Brynn or us. He can't do it, and so we kill both of them. Hm. Maybe in another life Dirk would have made a compelling main character.

Many thoughts. Head still empty.

Ik a lot of people hated that the most recent chapters were pretty much all about saving May. I actually didn’t mind that. What’s bothered me throughout this book is the writers trying to get us to buy her gifts all the time and acting like we should be emotionally attached to her when they didn’t lay nearly enough groundwork to make anyone genuinely feel something for her.

I care about her as much as I would any random child I saw on the street. So of course I didn’t mind saving her, but I’m not about to spend my diamonds on getting toys for her, spending extra time with her, and telling her stories. And the fact that they thought she was endearing enough for that without any help from the narrative is laughable to be quite honest 💀

Man if the Kierans aren’t conventionally attractive than I must look like a troll lmao

Maybe it’s just cause I’m not an artist or whatever but idg what’s wrong with the Cursed Heart sprites. I keep seeing posts about how ugly they are and I get people don’t like the concept but…Like can someone explain what I’m missing?

You know the one thing that actually destroyed choices wasn't even the quality of their books - it was the fact that they segregated us between VIP and non :/

They had put out bad books before but we still kind of read them and had the fandom to discuss how shitty they were - that was the whole point of choices.

Now when you're reading alone? It's like who the hell cares lol
