I need a title for RR.
Added 2024-08-17 14:20:33 +0000 UTCUnnamed Tower Climber doesn't grip me.
I'll put out some ideas and you guys can tell me what you'd click on.
Multiple choices are allowed/encouraged. Looking to get a good average.
However unlikely, if there is a suggestion that magically gets more hearts than anything else got votes, and I don't hate it: I'll pick that.

True, but the other LitRPG titles are way worse. Also the title fits one of the major themes much better than most similarly named stories do. Hyperbolic Adventures was my fav though.

2024-08-23 15:29:21 +0000 UTCOr the compromise title "The Williad, the Legend of William Oh"

2024-08-20 02:34:32 +0000 UTCJust wanna say that even though it’s winning I think The Legend of Blank feels like an incredibly common title for RR stuff.

2024-08-19 00:55:06 +0000 UTCDamnit it's way too late but I'll put an ivory down on "The Story of Oh" for reasons that will make sense to only a few well educated perverts.

2024-08-18 20:36:00 +0000 UTCYou might lean into the word myth or mythos in the title. The best part is these Puckish misunderstandings about William Oh, and it has actually taken on plot relevance.

StrollingEye
2024-08-18 12:09:08 +0000 UTCMaybe a pun on the last name? Like “The Tale of William Oh: Absolutely G.Oh.A.T.ed?”

2024-08-18 03:00:56 +0000 UTCQuick, unrelated question: as a Reader tier, is it correct that I can’t see past chapter 8? As to title, I think an explanatory subtitle as some of the examples have will be useful for this book. Edit: a day later, I now see through chapter 22 :D - looking forward to catching up!

2024-08-18 01:23:18 +0000 UTCMaybe I'm mistaken but to me it seems as if his transformation is still ongoing. The gravity goat sacrifice and the resulting skill might have been early but the mask and the boots were very recent. There's probably going to be more in the future, too.

2024-08-17 23:42:20 +0000 UTCMy brain keeps flipping between Generalized Occupational Aptitude Test for the goat test in fallout, and Remo Williams the adventure begins from way back in the day.

2024-08-17 19:28:24 +0000 UTCAll my votes for this.
Person
2024-08-17 17:46:46 +0000 UTCMaybe I’m overthinking it but when I read “The legend of…” I get instant Randidly Ghosthound vibes. Maybe it’s cause I’ve just read it, but I feel like in RR that might be pretty common thing with how big the story is. Something to consider

2024-08-17 16:27:50 +0000 UTCCalling something that happens so early in a story a spoiler is a hit extreme
Alex Matheny
2024-08-17 16:26:18 +0000 UTCYES that’s even better than The Legend of William Oh given there is already the Legend of Randidily Ghosthound
Zach Schmidt
2024-08-17 15:43:28 +0000 UTCThe legend of William Oh subscript the Goat climber of all time

2024-08-17 15:19:04 +0000 UTCThere’s already a litrpg on Amazon named the g.o.a.t (or something similar) fwiw
padanu
2024-08-17 15:17:15 +0000 UTCI'd say... Tower G.O.A.T. Similar to mountain goat? Other options work too...
Salthin
2024-08-17 15:10:27 +0000 UTCBest class for tower climbing is ~Dragon~ ~me~ goat!
Leo Yankovic
2024-08-17 15:07:11 +0000 UTCThe Legend of William Oh is clearly the best option :D
Josh Cothran
2024-08-17 15:06:15 +0000 UTCEven though something involving "tower climber" is a good descriptor, as a reader I feel like there are WAY too many existing RR stories with "tower climber" in the title. To be honest I dont even read the description for most of them because there are so many and they are largely identical clones of each other. From what I had read of this one (im behind now) its a bit different from the rest and the writing is years better than most tower climbers (pretty sure most of those are power fantasies written by high schoolers) I feel like putting that in the title might be detrimental to growing a fan-base quickly. I voted for both the options containing "Willam Oh" I see some other good "William Oh" related titles in the comments too. I think havin that in there is the way to go.

2024-08-17 15:02:47 +0000 UTCActually maybe we can double down on the caricature, with something like "The complete, accurate chronicles of William Oh's hyperbolic ascension of the Tower" and maybe make Jason Salazar or Loth the Luminary the summary's author
sebsebs
2024-08-17 14:44:42 +0000 UTCThe ballad of William Oh is also one I like
EDMANGO
2024-08-17 14:44:09 +0000 UTCMaybe something else than "adventures" though, to get more of that Salazar flavor. "Hyperbolic ___" ? Tale(s)? Journey? Epic? Rise? (Tower) climb? Legend? Retelling? Story? Life? Deeds? Chronicles? Feats? Or just "The hyperbolic William Oh"
sebsebs
2024-08-17 14:37:10 +0000 UTCLegend of William OH or William Oh's hyperbaric adventure are probably the best. Any title with goat in it should wait until the second book to stall obvious spoilers.
Joel Magnuson
2024-08-17 14:36:38 +0000 UTCThe hyperbolic adventures of William Oh is the best imo The best balance between epic adventure and meme. Too much of the former feels like a generic weak to strong novel and too much of the latter feels like a cheap trendy novel

Leobardis
2024-08-17 14:30:34 +0000 UTCI would refrain from using anything with goat in it because that's a spoiler. "The Last Climber" ... that's either another spoiler or incorrect.
Daemion
2024-08-17 14:29:59 +0000 UTCThis is a great pun, but I feel it would be lost on most prospective readers.

2024-08-17 14:29:43 +0000 UTCoof, you're better than the last 3, those are SEO slop, though they might help your average amazon litRPG enjoyer find the books
