Review Detail of Dwarkin in Embers Ad Infinitum

Ashura_Yami:What sixty chapters? I only see forty.

Windvally:A little bit of context: CKtalon originally mentioned the trail was going to be 60 chapters on release. But later on the management decided to shrink that into 40. Their reasoning: Usually it takes about 3 chapters for readers to already have a general sense of whether they want to continue or not. At the very most by 20th chapter most people will make up their mind. So to save money and translation time, they decided to release at 40. With 20 Free + 20 Paid. Normally this may not be as big of a deal. But this 40 chapter setup is negative for Cuttlefish purely because of his writing style - Fleshing out his world with details (Whether your argue its trash filler or pleasant world building is subjective opinion). Which means the trial will not present all of the the good parts of the book's current release where it REALLY starts to pick up (Chapter 36, 46, and 59). So it may draw less interest than a 60 chapter release could potentially achieve. It's unfortunate, but that's the reality of things. So I wish Cuttlefish's novel good luck at getting into the voting pool.

Ashura_Yami:I replied like that to the reviewer because I don't think that he noticed the 20 missing chapters and expected there to be sixty instead of forty. So this comment is just me pointing out to the reviewer about his mistake in the amount of chapters in a funny way.

louisjacq:In any case the voting pool is decided by bribery and not by the readers(I'm sure most people know it but now)
