Sounds like straight up gibberish in this chapter. I think it's because you're using Philipino words and names in a story written in English with no explanation. People won't know what that means, just like myself. They could be swear words for all we know. Its no more understandable than saying: "He lives in a thdkbrhs, but which is really cool." Could be a castle or even the sewer for a we know. I'm assuming this is meant for an international audience because its in English, as such I recommend explaining what you're saying with Philipino naming. For example:" he lives in a traditional Philipines style straw beach shack. " Tough people would still prefer just reading beach shack and the architecture style being largely introduced as the world sporting traditional philipino architecture of at all... Without such explanations tough, all the philipino namings for things are just straight up gibberish to people because they won't have ever heard the names before and no one sits with Google images at the ready for a zombie survival story. All in all tough, the concept isnt bad, and your a pretty decent writer, you know how to set the mood and pacing of the story quite well... For me tough, this is where it ends. -Without the initial outbreak -with both worlds being a regular modern age,
We are just in the beginning chapters of the story and we have yet another chapter that is tiring and full of filler :( I agree with the whole Philippine word problem, but that is the least of the worries. This is your story and you should do as you see fit. But so much tiresome and ineffective info dump, to me that is a sign that this story it not for me. Nonetheless i can see that you already have many other chapters, so i hope that you get to the end of the story and gain much fun and experience from it as a writer.
I've been unlocking the chapters so I can read it all at once. so far I'm really enjoying the novel. I loved the first chapter especially, you grabbed the readers attention immediately, and you explained the fatigue and weakness and the strength gathered at the time of transmigration, specutively.I don't mind it being a little wordy. I've read classics and Stephen King who I could skip entire chapters without missing a beat.
Yeah I was wondering if he is gonna leave shouldnât he at least kill the zombies there not just for experience of killing a zombie but for experimentation of how much force he had to use with the kitchen knife to kill them. Also isnât he still cowardly because he wants to use a gun he doesnât know how to operate instead of melee which is better in this situation?? Melee less sounds and with motivation work out and practice he could get melee attacks to work. Like throwing knives is long distance and makes less sounds than guns.
