Vote: Whether the branch line needs to be written in detail

There has been some controversy in reviews of the book recently, mainly about whether it is necessary to elaborate on the side plots that do not involve the protagonist.

In fact, the emergence of this controversy is not surprising.

It mainly depends on whether the reader has played World of Warcraft.

Readers who have played World of Warcraft may be very interested in these branches and care about the development of these important plot characters.

Readers who have never played World of Warcraft may find it baffling why they waste time writing about these people who have nothing to do with the protagonist.

In fact, I was very entangled when I was writing it, because Warcraft is a group drama, and I felt that it would be unreasonable not to write it. If I wrote it, but the protagonist did not appear, I was afraid that readers would be unhappy.

When I wrote the Hellraiser subplot before, I felt it was quite acceptable to readers, but I didn’t expect that the last few chapters would be so controversial.

Next, there will be a battle between the Dark Night Alliance, the Alliance, and the Horde around Silvermoon City and the home of the elves.

The branches of Arthas, Thrall, and Jaina explain their subsequent development.

The branch plot of Morpheus and the four dragon kings explains the conflict between the Dragonmaw clan and the guardian dragon.

Young Wolf Lord’s new tribal branch.

Now I am a bit confused whether to write or not.

Should I just write the protagonist’s plot line?

In fact, there is a way to reconcile it.

That is to let the protagonist participate in every branch plot, such as the tribe's attack on Silver Moon City. The original design was for the protagonist to participate in the whole process.

But this will make people feel like they are not doing their job properly. There must be a reason for the protagonist to join the war. After all, the main goal of the protagonist is the way of the ancient dragon.

So there will be no participation later, but if you like to see the protagonist participate, you can also write that the protagonist is online throughout the whole process.

In the next few branch plots, just make the protagonist feel full of participation.

So vote again and see how everyone likes it.

It certainly won't satisfy everyone, but it will satisfy as many readers as possible.

————————

Option 1: Try not to write these side plots that have nothing to do with the protagonist in the future. We mainly want to see the protagonist slay a dragon and become a god. We can just mention these side plots in one go.

————————

Choice 2: These side plots are very interesting, and we should write them anyway. We want to see the development of plot characters under the influence of players, and we want to see the changes in the history of Warcraft.

————————

Option 3: The side plot still needs to be written, but the protagonist must participate and play an important role in it, so there will be no problem.

As for the main storyline of Slaying the Dragon, it is enough for the protagonist to gain benefits and improve his strength. The main storyline can be advanced slowly. There is no need to be too anxious.

————————

Option 4: Add an ancient dragon to each side plot. The protagonist can slay the dragon to advance the main plot while also participating in the side plot. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

As always, vote for the option you like. Your choice will determine the development of this book.
