WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL I get that you need to make money for the writers editors translators basically everyone who works for the company but I think there should be a subscription per novel or even for all of them even if it’s weekly or monthly. Obviously I have very little expectation that they will do this. I don’t know how much words per page a book actually has because I’m not a avid reader of physical books myself but I’m sure youre not paying as much as you would be per word compared to this website, I think showing people teasers of the chapters that they can’t have access to is pointless why not just have the title and option to unlock it? Or even have an option that just shows you that there are 10 chapters that can be unlocked? Although a lot of people hate on the company for trying to make money I understand where they’re coming from it just seems so forced I don’t mind watching adds for chapters which I have no doubt I’ll still have to do every time a free chapter comes out still, but to basically use chapters and there teasers as incentives to buy ss sucks for the people who cant afford or don’t want to pay for them.
Introducing the Premium program BETA, giving you advanced chapters!
Wait so I can still get SS from daily check in and other things and I can still use SS to unlock the chapters, But now it's also for premium titles other than the already existing Bonus chapters that require SS to unlock. So basically I can still get everything for free ?
Will this premium thing also include those novels that barely update as is??? (Im also talking SS increase) cause sometimes you still have to pay SS even though it’s been a month waiting for updates
tankbusternbiscuit Yep bingo the only difference is premium has no ad option and the SS price is scaled by word count
PhatKidLovesCake nope the only novels that are premium are those listed the rest do not have an SS increase
noobslayer if days im okay but week its killing me if it meet god damn general cliff
If this like sub for several something for all access im okay but buy every god damn ss for chapter that quick release for 8 ss and have to wait for days or weeks (probably) this is killing my pocket soon
At least ads for those who really need it not killing most people
People are on outrage now
ey looks like I'm gonna eventually stop using qidian nice
Good. Time to drop RTW and find another hobby.
You know what will happen? The newest chapters will just be pirated and posted elsewhere. The greedy people that never learn are those who again and again try to return to unsuccessful distribution models. If Qidan becomes fully commercial, it will just mean other site will replace it with same content.
To ask a question that's probably in the minds of others:
Will more stories be added unto the premium program?
Personal question:
Is the program based on popularity of the novel or based on something else?

With Qidian going premium I hope attention is paid to Quality Control, there is nothing more annoying than paying for a chapter to find it has many grammatical mistakes, spelling mistakes, even incorrect character / technique names in random places.
At the moment I put with these errors, especially on fast releasing novels like Immortal Mortal as the chapters are basically free, but if I'm paying for the content I would insist that you have it be properly QC'd.
just don't be too updated and wait it to be unlock T_T i hope i can do it.
I want QI to release all the RTW and IM chapters and make them premium!! I need to read them!!! T_T
ActiasLuna thanks. They never really explained how this premium thing worked.
NineNeatherBird SS expires now so it DEFINITELY affects you lmao
If I use spirit stones to read ahead for 2 chapters, do I still get 7 free chapters a week or only 5?
