Mount & Blade: A Pendor Rhapsody

Mount-and-blade fandom is considered a niche genre, but mount-and-blade games are no longer considered niche games at the moment—the popularity is much better than it was a few years ago. Then why are horse-and-blade novels still unpopular, leading some authors to feel that no one reads them and there is no future (money) in writing them? The reasons are as follows: 1. The market is not yet mature. This is because truly talented and capable writers look down on fellow knight-errants and choose to write their own original world. This also leads to the fact that the knight-and-blade novel can never become more advanced (unless there is a dark horse author who writes the knight-and-blade novel to break out of the siege and become a master himself) 2. Riding and slashing is not easy to write, because it is a game with a very high degree of freedom but a weak plot. The weak plot makes it very difficult for authors of riding and slashing to structure the plot when writing. If the weak plot of the original game is not correctly solved, a large number of authors who write for interest will gradually fall into the difficulty of writing until they lack interest, and the articles written in this way will not be easy to attract readers. It falls into a vicious cycle. 3. Since the knight-and-blade game is a game about leading troops to fight, the genre of knight-and-blade novels can easily be defined as the dynasty hegemony genre, causing the niche readers of this genre to become even more niche. Having said that, it's time to share my personal views on how to write this type of article well. 1. The author can treat his own novel as a knight-and-blade novel, but the genre should not be limited to dynasty battles. Instead, it should be as diverse as the mods for the knight-and-blade game, including fighting for hegemony, farming, being a magician, being a knight, etc. Because I am really tired of playing horse-and-blade games and leading troops to fight in battles. It would be very interesting to see someone write a story about someone who gradually grew up from a slave to a noble knight in the world of horse-and-blade, or about being a magic apprentice and showing himself among the major kingdoms in pursuit of supreme magic. I think it would be very interesting. 2. The horse-and-blade novel does not necessarily require traveling to the world of horse-and-blade. Instead, you can use the golden finger of the horse-and-blade element (the horse-and-blade element here can also be other mods) to travel to your own original different world or the world of other fans. If you travel to your own original world, you can participate in it. Take a look at the book "Lords in the Oasis". If you travel to the world of other fans, you can try to catch up on the popularity of that world - for example, the protagonist brings a golden finger with +1 strength, +1 agility, +1 intelligence, and +1 charm to the world of Marvel? 3. You don't have to choose the original mod for riding and slashing. There are so many mods popular now, such as Pendor's Prophecy, Perisno, 12th Century, 16th Century, etc., Which are all good themes. You can choose any mod as the world background and start the story of your own protagonist. This means that you should not regard your writing as a knight-and-blade fanfic and deliberately embody this element by writing a bunch of settings that are temporarily unused or even bloated. Instead, you should focus on the fun of your story, and don't be restricted by the fact that you are a knight-errant and slasher fanfic. Finally, let me say something extra - create a character with a distinctive personality, and use the character's personality and the actions he may do to promote the plot, rather than forcing the character to do so because of the needs of the plot. 😃

Is anyone watching? (ΘˍΘ=) I'm writing a stand-alone game, right? If there are any book friends who are reading, please come and sign in.

If you have fan value and want a refund, remember to join the book club group in the profile, the Aite group leader. The author feels very sad now, so I won't explain much. The last chapter has the remaining outline and reasons. Remember to get your refund before April 15th. (There is no deadline for the top ten on the fan list) Thank you for your support and understanding. Thank you, Sirius. (Apologies are all fake, refunds are real)

It's awesome. It took me so long to finish a book and no one has read it. It gave me almost 40,000 words of harmony. 😡

When writing about riding and slashing, writing only one mod feels like the world view is relatively narrow, and the readers are always people who have played this game, or just people who have played this mod. Naturally, there are fewer readers than other subjects. I hope the author will not give up. We will be with you. Come on.

The level is too low and there is only one vote. If you all like Pan De, I hope you can give the author a chance. Please vote more.

Absolutely good book, a relief center for book shortages!

By the way, I would like to thank the guy named Shenshan Daling, who still recommends me tickets every day. . . Grateful. . . ( •̥́ ˍ •̀ू )
