What would people like to see in a story about the Neptunian universe?

I already started writing, and have an clear idea of what I want to write ,too, but I am open to suggestions of what the possible future readers might find interesting.

And English is not my native language, so I am welcoming feedback and constructive criticism aswell as tips or corrections.Thank you beforehand.

 

Here is a link to your work in progress, but it really doesn't have anything in it. So I can't give you any feedback.

Its more like asking for something that someone who is no hardcore fan like me would be interested in.And i am aware that it has nothing to it,yet.Just started writing it after all...

 

It sounded like you wanted feedback on parts you had already written. Regardless, the link is there for others when you do put something into the editor.

I really know nothing about the universe. But for something like this, keep in mind that you'll have to write the story in such a way that someone who has absolutely no idea what it is can follow along. Don't just take for granted that people will know the elements - but it seems like you already have a grip on this concept.

People who don't know the universe probably aren't the best sources to draw ideas from. It's pretty hard to make a suggestion that would make sense for something you know nothing about. Best advice is always to write the story you want to write. A good plot and strong characters can carry a story regardless of outlying factors.

But if you really want suggestions for add-ons, I suggest posting your first page here and a brief description to help give people an idea.

I know absolutely nothing about Neptunia or what it even is, so Bucky's point is a good one. One thing people often fail to realize when posting fanfic here is that at least the basic details of the setting and the characters still need to be introduced in a natural way as part of the story, in the same way they would if writing something original and expecting anyone else to have any idea what they were going on about.
