Hey everybody,

Lately, I've been thinking about finding somebody who would like to join me in the creation of the game as a writer, as I feel I'm not so good at it and my writing is quite simplistic and the texts for the game could be much better. Especially considering that I'm not a native speaker. I would love to know your opinion on this subject as it's quite difficult to be objective about the stuff you create. So please feel free to share your thoughts and don't be afraid that you will offend me or anything, I'm not easily offended and I would really prefer if you could be honest about it, as it will help to make the game better.

Thank you!

Edit:

I don't mean spelling mistakes or grammar, I mean the general level of writing as I want it to excite people who read this stuff and for it to be something as sexy and exciting as this:

"The brief contact sends a lightning bolt of pleasure arching over your nerves, causing you to lean forward and squeeze your legs together. The movement inadvertently pushes your finger firmly against your pleasure buzzer, causing another paroxysm of pleasure to shoot through you. You quickly pull your hand from between your legs, not wanting to be overwhelmed before you've really begun. You realize that the two fingers that slipped between your lips have become damp with your personal nectar."

(It's from a scene in the game "Accidental Woman" by ThaumX)

Edit 2:

Thanks, everybody for voting and sharing your opinion in the comments! I really appreciate that! As I see from all the comments and messages, for now, it might not be such a good idea to make more complex texts for the game and instead I'll just try to work on my writing skill, as I still want to improve the texts a little. So if I do hire anyone to help me on the game, it might be some time later and not now.

Thank you!

You just need someone to catch your 3 spelling mistakes each patch before release.

You could have 1 person to proof read before the release of any patches. And I’m not really bothered by spelling mistakes but if you feel like you want someone to help you then that’s fine.

Getting a writer down the road might make sense, but at this point just get a proof reader. People will play a game with sexy graphics and bad writing way before one with good writing and bad graphics, and a lot of people probably just fast forward the writing to get to the fucking. So if you want more patrons, then focus on getting more animations and scenes in. If at some point you think you can get more animations done by getting someone to help, that's when you should consider getting someone, because regular updates with actual content is what people want.

I'm not much of a writer myself but, it turns out, most people don't really care. They're playing for the porn, not to be wooed by some literary master-piece.

True true as everyone said, i play the game for the sex more than for the writing. English is not even my main language. Personally in the example you gave, the english is too complicated and too detailed i wont have the patience to read it.

Honestly, I enjoy flavour text, story advancement, etc. That said, I think you're doing a great job already, and I think there's something to be said for the artist keeping things true to their vision. Also, your English is great; never would've guessed you weren't a native speaker.
