Hope You Had A Good Day, Saw Asks Was Open So :D
Here's A Question (Sorry If You Already Answered It Or Something Like It) But When You're Going Into Writing A Chapter, Where Do You Usually Start? Do You Start From The Beginning, Work Your Way Backwards, Write Motives/Free Times, Etc? Or Like a Mix?
Anyway Some Tangents, I Played YTTD Because I Was Curious After Reading Dr96. Great Game And Everyone Should Play At Least Once (It's Free So Why Not??) + Gin Is The Best Boi Prove Me Wrong
Also The Pure Acid Trip I Had When I First Saw Saiki's Inclusion Like 0.0, Rest In Dark Peperonis Kaido ;_;
Hope That Everything's Going Well Irl And That You Have A Great 2024!
When I write a chapter, I always start with a plan. This plan will basically just start off with a very rough idea of what key moments will consist in each day up until the murder. Then, I'll move to plan each day out in more detail, such as important dialogue or development on some scenes.
The murder case is usually planned at whatever point I feel necessary. For example, for a case I already had the plan in advance for, I can flesh that out pretty easily. But for times where I haven't, I may do it later.
So, I do mostly work in order from daily -> investigation -> trial. I'm not really sure if I could do any work on a trial without having the previous as everything is supposed to build up in order.
Things such as motives and FTEs however were all done in advance. The motives were planned before the chapters are worked on, and I wrote all the FTEs just after I finished working on the prologue. So each time I needed to add a FTE in a specific slot in a daily life, I'd leave a little note, then copy and paste the needed FTE into it's place.
Also, I heavily agree about your sentiment on YTTD. It's a completely free game, and you can even just play it in your browser!
And thank you very much! 2024 is definitely doing uh, something! 👍
#it is actually insane how detailed the chapter plans for DR96 are compared to the ones for DR69#most of DR69's are just some rows of bullet points#DR96's each have their own document's worth of like 20-40k words#I am a meticulous worker that's for sure
