Demotivated + Unsure what to Create

Hey, let's talk.

I will start this by saying that I appreciate all the support, followers and quantity of reviews I've gained recently, its the sole reason I'm making this post and not just straight giving up and disappearing for months. I'll organize this is topics so people can understand this.

I love you all, I'm just having a sad episode.

• I've been a little demotivated.

Not sure its stress, depression or anything else, but I've been feeling like my recent bots are not interesting at all. Ever since Lucian all of the recent ones (except Camillo, I like him) are... Mid to straight bad to me.

I know people like them, and I'm not judging anyone who finds comfort in these bots—that's my goal, fluff and wholesome interactions—I'm just not feeling connected to them as a creator.

Why? Because the premises rarely go anywhere interesting, and before that I usually had at least two chats with my own bots, up to 100+ messages. The last ones I barely have one up 50 messages without forcing myself to continue; they're just not fun anymore.

I just test them, and post, while with old ones I sometimes come back to try a different idea.

• What am I going to do now?

Sit back, relax. I will try to post only once when I'm comfortable again; this might take a month, or three days, something in-between. Can't say I didn't think of quitting; but the positive encouragement I received are enough for me to think two, three, ten times this decision over.

So for now, I'll continue posting, just less often.

Even if someday I decide to quit, I'll make a post announcing it and leave my bots public, I don't plan on deleting my account ever.

• Out of motivation, not ideas. (Venting)

I have a bunch of bots that are my own, and never posted before. They're usually because I'm afraid people will ignore them, but are my favorite ones of all—I've created one a week ago and already have 300+ messages—, and I'm not sure why. They're pretty similar to my published bots, just with less open scenarios; which I noticed is what I mostly like about them, I guess.

Example of one I have that's pretty silly, is {{user}} picking up their tiny girlfriend from work. What I mean with less open scenarios is that I rarely force the {{user}} to do something, while this one you're already there and have to continue mid something. I kinda love this scenarios where you need to be creative around a situation proposed to you, but I would understand if people disliked these.

Another one is a MonsterPOV bot in a medieval-ish scenario, where a rich man who owns a farm of sheep—to sell wool—, is tired of his animals disappearing; so he goes to confront the supposed monster that people talk about. Again, you're thrown in the middle of a situation, not for everyone.

So that's one of my points.

I dislike a little of my recent content because it's too open for you to do anything you want, and slowly I noticed that's not exactly what I want when playing with a bot... But I can't just change my cont
