>>38248126>But after the death of his Cascoon he quickly realize this isn't a game.except it is though. and he knows this for a fact, none of what he's going through is real. the isekai format is screwing you here because it's a genre built for power fantasy and escapism while nuzlockes often have character growth and grittiness, at least the good ones. unless you plan to subvert or deconstruct the genre in a meaningful way, which i can't see you doing with the outline you've posted which seems to be "the events of the game but my guy can see healthbars," it really is better to drop the isekai thing altogether and just play it as a straight nuzlocke. you'll only help yourself by avoiding needless confusion. trimming the fat is one of the most important things you need to do when writing a story, especially a comic because more shit to write down means more shit to draw which takes even more time to make. my first draft of what i'm writing was substantially different than what it's come to and i'm still not done. seriously, i had a prophecy and shit, it was fucking terrible. take a step back and look at what needs to be cut out. you seem to want to focus on character interactions based on what you've posted since story editing is at a minimum so maybe have that be your focus. good characters are hard to come by in nuzlocke comics, but this isekai shit is detrimental to them because they're not even real in-universe. either make the genre work for you or try something else. if you really want to make a unique nuzlocke comic, look at different genres. hell, make a nuzlocke buddy cop comic, i haven't seen one of those done.
