  • I cannot afford this website...

I was ok with premium being a thing.. Locking 5-10 chapter seemed alright...
But 20 ? 30 ? A 100 ?!
The non premium series are slowing down and the best series are being dropped in mass...
For the first time in my life as a reader I wasn't excited to binge read IRAS...
Library of Heaven's path, the all time number 1 series on this website was at 12 stones per chapter... From the first day i came to this website to this moment I accumulated 500 stones that i spent for daily chapter... All went down in one day... Because of one series...
If i want to read, I needed to buy stones...
Basically the poor are boycotting the top series and the one with money are enjoying premium low quality service.

What a nice fanbase to be in...

    Spirit stones is an addiction mechanic. Without spirit stones and only reading free chapters you get 1-2 chapters per novel, which is the same if you have caught up to locked chapters already anyway! But what if you are caught up to locked chapters and are out of spirit stones? Cough up more money or wait days/weeks for your next free chapter. Fx. I’ve just found out strongest system has 40 locked chapters, which means I get no free chapters for 20 days straight. So don’t buy spirit stones and get caught in this addiction mechanic

      YueZise what you don't understand is that the novels are OWNED by Quidian and they are not obliged to make them affordable for you. Moreover they have no incentive to do so if they make a bigger profit. The most you can do is to not buy spirit stones. So it is of no use acting like a sulky child

        i have 15+ novels in my library atm. 4 are premium, 2 will turn premium soon. Most cost around 7sp per chapter, some update 2 chapters a day. so ill need at least 40+ sp per day pretty soon. one of my favorite novels has chapters that cost over 10 sp per chapter, maximum was 17 for one that was (thank good!) the one that unlocked for free the first day after it went premium ...
        lets stick with that and do a calculation :D free dayly sp will go to the novels that get more then one chapter per day, even though it doesnt really cover the costs.

        40 sp per day
        280 sp per week
        1120 sp per month

        1000sp are at 20 USD
        and that is the minimum ill need to keep up with my favorite storys.
        i read somewhere, that 1 sp is for 200-300 words, so i get somewhere around 250.000 words for that.

        my favorite book i have in my shelf at home has around the same number of words. it cost 8,99 USD, cause i have the soft cover (cheaper) version... i think i should get back to buying more books in stores. One of the main reasons i read online is, that i get a high diversity of books for no/low cost.

        just now reading online got more expensive than buying books. and they dont have to print.

        im ok with watching an add before reading a chapter, even if it was a bit longer. but seeing locked chapters i cant affort is frustrating.
