This is an update to let you know that the Potterverse rewrite is up - STOP!

Ok don't jump right into it, please read the rest before you go and check it out.

The rewrite is called – HP: PotterVerse Remastered Edition Book 1

The full name is actually Harry Potter: PotterVerse Remastered Edition - The Advent of the Gamer, which is sort of like book 1 of what I have planned. This one will include Harry getting his power and all seven years of Harry's life at Hogwarts.

With that out of the way, let me rant a bit.

Basically, what happened with this fic was I had a start to end story line, but the things in between started getting wild with new suggestions and epiphanies and so on. And it got way out of control. With my own real-life problems hounding me, I decided to stop it for a while. Then whenever I got time, I tried to modify the previously done chapters and continue writing more. After some tries, I decided to do a complete rewrite.

I have gone through 9 re-writes as of now, each one getting wierder than the last one. Seriously my mind is full of gutter it seems. Anyway eventually I was able to write something that I felt was good enough to publish here, I mean what's the point of me writing out all these various rewrites if no one is going to read it?

So what exactly do I have to show for all these times of re-writing? Choppy Game System, relationships and dilogues and a very loose plot. Yeah I know not a promising endorsement. But it is what it is.

That's why I cut down on the Game system into what I want and what I don't need and stripped it down to bare bones. The game system will have a lot of flaws but I think keeping it simple was the best idea. Thousands of little gimmicks will just add on to the mess.

And in the process of re-writing the whole thing, I think I have acquired a somewhat improved writing style.

Coupled with a more detailed outline of the story, yeah I think it's time to start posting my newest iteration and see how it goes.

Otherwise I will again quite halfway through and start over again!

All put together, the results seem promising. I have a fairly planned game system, somewhat new writing style, a handful of good story elements that ties my previous Start to End plot lines.

I had tried to flesh out some stories that came to my mind as I was doing a rewrite of this story, which I have posted in this site over the years. I did this partly to get it out of my mind and into writing as well as to see if my perverted part of my brain was running the show. So far it didn't seem to be the case, but I still struggled with it for a while. After further deliberation I decided 'to hell with it' and give the perverted part of my brain a chance to shine and did a Harry Potter/Pokémon crossover as a pure smut fic. I was able to realise that this story and the pure smut was different but had similarities as well.

In the end, I just decided to simply go head and see how it will turn out and here we are.

Now fair warning before I let you guys jump into the new one so that you can decide whether to read the new one or not:

Slow updates (from months to years between chapters)

No meaningful romance stories (I tried, I really tried and I absolutely suck at portraying romance)

Contains fluff, smut, incest and whatever my mind conjures up at the time. (Not always as I have been editing such things out and keeping it clean but it might crop up from time to time)

My progress with English Language and in writing stories still remains at the very bottom level (sadly I don't have the power of Gamer to level up), so cringe dialogues, absurd and choppy sentences, wrong grammar, well you get the point, right?

I am not a pro gamer; I have played maybe about 20 - 30 games or more and that too for the fun of it. Meaning the game systems will have many flows, I have tried to flesh out the system and have a good data sheet ready at hand. But I am sure there will be many stupid mistakes that I must have made and will do as the story goes on. Do forgive me for it.

With those out of the way, let me first THANK ALL OF YOU, who have supported, reviewed, followed me all the way. I really appreciate it. I am extremely grateful for those who pm'ed me with ideas, suggestions and encouragement. Especially LordofKhaos and Calebros, both of them have helped me a lot by being a sounding board, brainstorming ideas and giving me a lot of insights. Thanks to the both of you, I truly appreciate it!

THANK YOU for being part of my journey.

I will always cherish this story no matter what happens with my new version.
