for reference, i'm at 25k words and 76 pages so far, which is about 20% of my storygame so far.

should i downsize, or does this seem fitting of a 7/8 or 8/8 length storygame?

Length gets assigned automatically.

Write as long as you want.

Dead Man Walking is somewhere around a million words.

Many good games are around a 100k so you seem to be on a good track. Btw. I thought you switched accounts?

Are there any long bad ones? I imagine people would be extra harsh in the ratings/reviews if a story is long and bad.

This maybe? Edit: Changed the link, to a longer one with similar rating.

People tend to rate at least a 4/8 for "effort".

I have assigned this one as a punishment before.

Only 12k, but I had a look, and I think it qualifies as cruel and unusual punishment. Anyway, I managed to get the "worst ending" in about 12 seconds, and now I will be forever jealous that that thing gets played so much.

Oh whoops, wrong link. That's the guide, which is rated higher than the actual story: https://chooseyourstory.com/story/neon-genesis-evangelion

yup, this is the new acc. in the process of transferring what I have of my storygame currently on the old acc to this one. almost finished though.
