Alright, I can respect those reasons. 

The necessity of a skilled writer is indisputable, but you must realize that the games posted on an Indie dev site such as this simply cannot afford these rates. I've seen "teams" of only three or two people, where writing is rarely a present talent and never the specialized one. The effort and budget falls on that which is mandatory to include; coding, sound, and some form of visuals. Seeing as most all of us know how to communicate in flawless English, writing is seen as a secondary skill that just about anyone can provide in a pinch.

Look, I know it's a nuanced art, and that it's not that easy to produce a compelling piece. With that said, a visual novel can reach word counts in the tens of thousands. Charging a penny per word would be a lot considering the main question the teams generally care about is "Is it finished or not?" They tend not to appreciate the finer aspects this early on in their career when we're all hobbyists, amateurs, novices.

Ten cents per word... That's over two hundred and twenty dollars for the public sex scene alone. At that rate, I may as well hire a tutor to teach me how to write like that, and I'd have it done with money to spare... 

And this comment here would cost five dollars.

Wow, a reply. I'm surprised at the level of service--normally indie developers don't bug fix.

Good luck! I'm looking forward to seeing all there is for this game. : >

Hmm...Could use some music, but that's nitpicking. The main issue I've seen is when you tab out and work on something else--coming back to the game rewards you with a black screen, having only the characters available (at least during fights).

Hello!

I've played your game, and the feel and look of it is spot-on with a game I have designed...I have the script, the mechanics, all of it thought up of--just not made.

I was wondering if you would be interested in looking into it? You don't need to work on anything, I'd just like some tips as someone following your footsteps, so to speak.

Tell me if you'd like a look-see!

The number of. Do you remember it?
