r/Episode

hey yall ive realized that episode is holding a knife and removing any story on a bit of any hints of s*x or violence! kind of weird since I felt like get were so laid back, since they've taken a lot of stories down it seems like a ton of authors are walking on eggshells. I don't think the primary audience is 9 year olds either, most 16 and up! There are some stories I love, being removed or warned and having scenes being removed! ( so far born to sin (removed), don't sin, demure, ride of secrets and the last ones) ive noticed wattpad doing the same, its sorta sad. :/

Edit: saw someone say there ads are very sexual and shows that clearly! But the stories can’t have any of that? Also the app starts at 13, why are they advertising the app at 13!

Story: Sterling’s Cure

So I’m loving this story so far, the animations are unreal and the characters are so compelling! I’m just curious about an aspect of the story that might be getting lost in translation due to it being animated.

As we see in the story the Strangers are absolutely terrifying, and some of the ways they can be detected by their suspicious stories/lies, unemotional way of speaking, etc., but is it implied in the story that the humancharacters cannot see how creepy they are long limbs, unsettling smiles)? Just a part I’m confused about.

im bit of a picky person and give stories like a max 5 chapters to get good!

I don't like:

highschool based stories: (but I love between the lines!) college stories are good tho!

fantasy

corny stories...

SCI-FI

Stories I love:

HIM, The Sinclair deal, Sterling's cure, double take, bring it closer, stalemate, only pretend, sucker, Elvie!, fragments of us, ride of secrets, between the lines, cabin fever, demure, the murder of fantasia, no innocence, prince of Malibu and the last ones, midnight gambit!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE criminal stories, but don't like when there very mafia focused like don't sin or the culebra or his biggest temptation, or broken ambition... I just think they're so corny... might be the writing tho..

I paid an artist to create me the art cover for my story and found someone to code my story for me ! : )

Thankfully, I found it to be very affordable as a stay at home mom.. I could only Afford one episode for now though but hey something is something right?

Also, I've never written a story so I hope its good 😅

I'm actually thinking of contacting my school and asking for a writing workshop as an elective hopefully they have it lol :3

I’m freaking out right now because it feels like I’ve absolutely zoomed through my favourite stories then wanting another story just as good but then I have to go through a million which aren’t my taste.

I only started on episode not that long ago so I don’t have THAT many standards or favourites.

Favourite episodes so far:
College of Eternity - Sophookles (FIRST FULL READ AND I’M STILL IN LOVEEE (will reread))
My Butler - Sophookles (read it because it’s also made by the author of COE, another LOVE and another reread)
Dark Embrace - May E (Not finished because it’s not a finished story but loving it so far!)

I’m looking for fantasy/romance stories, specifically community made ones! I also enjoy a good length (At LEAST 30 chapters). Art scenes don’t matter to me, I don’t want gem choices and I really enjoy point systems and character customisation! Enemies to lovers and slow burn are awesome imo. Mafia stuff is a no from me though!

Thanks heaps!

EDIT: I hate gem waits

This has to be my biggest pet peeve. I LOVE super toxic stories, but only when done right. I cant stand it when mc never defends herself and just takes everything the li says to her. Also something even worse is when li has a reputation for fucking random girls left and right while mc has never done it in her life. Worst of all is when she simply cannot hold a grudge against asshole love interest and says an infamous line like “i wanted to push him away but my body was telling me not to” or some bullshit when li randomly kisses her to make up for flirting with other girls or something. A general observation ive made about these stories is also that mc usually has zero personality and li has her running after him like a puppy.

i've seen it being recommended 293928 times here and i put off on reading it every single time cause it's not completed and it doesn't seem like the author is currently active (🥲) but i just read episode 3 and i'm HOOKED.

the dialogue isn't cringe, the coding is great and so is the directing, the setting is different from what you usually see, the characters have soul and personality, the pacing is great so far...that's all i've been searching for like a wild dog these past few weeks!!!!!

why is my heart skipping a beat for the li THREE CHAPTERS IN...oh romance genre i'll never get tired of you.

i'm almost mad at yall for making me read it cause i KNOW i'll binge it and be upset cause it's unfinished. UGH.

also dare i add that filters immediately add points to a story, i'm such a sucker for them.

hiii recently, I'm back to playing episode, and I'm starting a fresh account so my favorite story list is basically empty (planning to add my old favs in there). I've been trying to remember this one book, community story, I think there's mystery and reincarnation in it? about MC going to vacation and found a painting of them and their old partner in a museum/gallery (they used to be royals??? I recall?? I dont quite remember) but then mc decided to go on a quest to find this stranger that they believed to be their past lover, with the help of a detective/professor/someone who knows the royal's history??? my memory is so blurry imsorryyyy but you can choose the gender of both MC and LI. does anyone know the title? thank you!!!
