this books got a writing limit?

All good! I just wanted to point it out! <3

@Azazel Recensum Hi, yes, it is from this mod, I forgot to add the translations for english to fix that

Hey Im not sure if this is from your mod or not, but the GUI for skills has this added to it, and I was looking to determine where it came from

Some say the end is near... some say will see armmagedon soon...

Hey! happy to read that you have heard good things about us, always awesome to know. That aside, thank you tons for the fast response and for the perms as well. Happy New years mate

@Kai Hi, of course, i have no problem with modpacks, also i heard a lot about Day's End, glad to be helpful in that server.

Hello! I’m Kai (Nem) reaching out on behalf of the Day’s End Roleplay server. We were interested in adding Story Teller to our unlisted modpack if you would be alright with it as it'll likely be a long term addition to our server upon it being added and it provides really cool RP opportunities.

This would include you extending your creative license to us, allowing our mod team to add/edit/use your mod to suit our server. We will include credit to you as the original creator of the mod, of course, and have no intention as calling it our own work.

If this is something you would be alright with, then please let me know! Thank you for the consideration and the work done for the mod itself.

Re: Daevinski - seconded

Do you plan to translate to English? Here all recipes have Spanish names.

Is this safe to add to an active save?

@Mereszhka Don't worry, you are doing fine. There is no rush or something, just trying to help with info. I'm just letting you know that you are creating a recursive; even in Multiplayer. If Player 1 has Stress and Depression and needs someone to write a book for them, Player 2 start writes a book. Player 2 lets Player 1 read it to loose Stress and Depression. Now Player 2 has Stress and Depression and needs someone to write them a book, so Player 1 writes them a book and gains Stress and Depression... You see the loop?

You need to make the work and book have incomparable choices; and writing the book already has that in the form of the "time" it takes to create. If it takes a long time to create, but helps your mood in the end; Players are already making a choice between that trade off and you just need to balance it fairly. Also make sure you remember they have other ways to lose them, so make sure the time it takes is balanced in comparison to other options.

@AstrayCuriosity As someone who writes stories, creates TTRPGs, and helped create video games; I think you're missing two points.

Your examples are very different media, and the experience is VERY different in engaging with it after creation because of the creation process. Video games, you are constantly "playing it" as part of the process. TTRPGs are less of a problem, new players means new play. But stories you write, you are not engaging with the story over and over.

The second part you seem to be misunderstanding is that those interviews are more often from people who are being paid to create their games, movies, etc. Writing is much more personal than making video games and movies which usually takes a lot of people working together, whom in the end will alter your vision; intentional or not. This is why you often know someone that will tell the same story over and over again, as excited as the first time, and likely because they themselves want to hear it again.

@Wolfiefang I mean I understand that if you are consumer you can definetly enjoy some work more than once. I'm doing it myself. But if we are talking about your own creation - it's really hard to enjoy it. I have that opinion from some interviews of people who making games and movies and how they say they don't like to watch/play what they're created. I also know that feeling from creating maps and levels for some games.

@Wolfiefang As you say, writing is for fun, but doing it massively as work becomes stressful, this mod mod was more intended for multiplayer in harder difficulties, but I plan to make other copies of the mod more simplified for single player, so people can choose their own way of writing books, as well as different times of creation, just be patience, updates will come very soon. Thanks for your support and feedback <3

You definitely can write and enjoy reading your own work, part of it is just "being proud of your own completed work"! It's also a sort of a "work around" to keep the same good feelings for the writer. Reading is what I guess emulates the writer getting that good feelings of writing.

Also, have people never read a book twice or watched a movie twice!? It doesn't remove the fun even if you "know the ending".

As a writer, I already feel sad that they changed that writing "creates depression and stress". I've never gotten depressed or stressed when writing for fun; the only real stress comes in when you're writing for a "job"; Those issues are kinda gone now in the apocalypse when you don't need to write for money. The real downside should just be the time it takes to create, forcing you to say put and not do other tasks.

Also, mechanically speaking right now in SP it's very odd to gain depression and stress to write a book.. so that you can read it.. to removes depression and stress.

I have no idea how to even make that work. Like really how? Give your character dementia? Smack your own head with a bat? idk

@AstrayCuriosity already working in an update like that and other stuff, to make it more immersive as a really writer

Bro speaking facts.

But... How are you gonna enjoy the story that you written? You already know everything about it.
