【A new work from the author of 'The Author's POV'!】

I hate horror.

From the skittering sounds of footsteps racing behind me, to the soft yet unnervingly cold whispers curling around my ears...

All of it. I hate it.

So much so that I start puking whenever I reach a certain threshold.

And yet, I am a Horror Game Developer.

A crappy one at that.

So, given my lack of ability, I decided to quit.

And yet...

[Congratulations, you've been selected for the Horror Game Developer System!]

Nope, I don't want it.

Let me quit.

※ Note : Your world might experience some changes. But don't worry! It's part of the game!

***

This is a story about a game developer who hates horror, but has no choice but to develop games scary enough to traumatize people.

You want to curse me for making you piss your pants?

If that's the case, who do I curse?

***

An SCP inspired story with its own twist! Collapse

    I like it, im currently on ch 80. It has horror parts but the author put on some part where you relax but it became twisted, though the horror is not that fully scary but the the way the author use the horror as part of his power is interesting 🤔. I hardly ever read horror genre novel as im more to listening to horror stories rather than reading it. So for me its good 4/5

    I don't find this readable after having read My House of Horrors. It's like how trash generic Xianxias are no longer readable after reading Reverend Insanity or something. I can't help but compare it to an actually good novel in the genre.

      Is it that bad? I was hoping it'd be like My House of Horrors.

            It comes off as rather pathetic when you spam over and over again, not once, but twice.
            Are the people bullying you that much?
            Edit: Yeah, I read Ragnarock's comment. Makes sense. Incredibly fragile ego from most likely a 13 year old who can't stand the idea of getting rebutted by other people.

          I agree, but some of these people seem to think it’s better than gospel when, at its absolute best, it was barely better than mediocre.

        Because the writing seems like it’s not from someone that natively speaks English.

        Specially when most of the shit on webnovel uses AI and AI translation is decent enough that the average schmuck can’t tell the difference.

          No, the writer certainly does know how to write English. Very likely way better than you ever will. It's just that he willingly chooses to write in this style for webnovels.
          He has fairly popular books on amazon, 'A Summoner Awakens'.
          He also was a writer way before AI.
          It comes off as really pathetic when you just force shit

            It’s pretty hard to willingly write in a way that is that bad. Because if they knew how to write in a way that wasn’t that then at some point the good writing would stick but it hasn’t.

            And when the f#ck do you think AI grammar checks and editing came around? Cause that shits been around for the past 12 years. It’s just gotten really f#cking overused in the past few.

    Well, I read up to chapter 101. In my opinion, it's quite a different power system, and if you read "Horror game designer," it's completely different. I recommend that you give it a try.

    It feel bad how hard the author tries to describe how scary it is but I feel nothing but annoyance. It annoying how much the action and plot takes a backseat for the mc to tell me for the 50th time he's going to throw up or how horrible grotesque the monster is

    Instead of being scary he just sound like a pussy.

    They're still probably something good about this but the writing style does not work well for me. This is an author that like to emphasis the feeling too much

        Its more that the way the mc is said to act is different from how he is shown to act. Tell us he is scared all you want but if the very next scene it shows him being completely fine that’s a problem.

          That's the entire point. He's outwardly normal, but inside he's scared af. This is a very very common trope

            You’re missing the point man. Fu#king characterization, have you or the writer ever heard of it?

              The fact that you had to make so many comments to re-affirm your point after the last tells me all I need to know.
