Let's place ourselves first. We're on the internet; we are in a game-based forum; the people around here joke regularly--we're a very laid-back community. Writing this huge wall of text is like, the worst idea ever because no one is going to bother reading all of it. People in general usually reads short stuff; if your text fails to 'catch' the readers on the first paragraphs, they'll simply stop reading and go to a more interesting topic. This is how this forum works, as well as many others.
Now, add to the fact that we have a dislike for fanfictions, let alone game-based ones. This type of fanfic is usually terrible, tired, annoying and uninteresting, as well as nonsense. We simply won't take it seriously because it is yet another fanfic from the internet.
More than missing on the text type and plot, you also missed the readers. This (maybe) would have a better reception in a fanfic-based site, but really, putting this on tSR will not give you good results.
PLEASE NOTE THAT criticism is not a 'bad result'. We might not like this kind of text, but we still can give proper criticism. So even if they're bitter, read them, analyze and improve. I'm just saying that this is not really the best place for this, heh
I suggest, like many others, to abandon fanfics for your own good; a piece 100% yours can be full of mistakes, but it's still yours and that's what we, tSR, enjoy the most. We'd rather have an original work than NINTENDO ALL STARS FANFIC #1209381309475064267.
Wait is this directed towards my review? You gotta point though I feel as if he's not bringing anything new to the table. But I feel like if he's not doing well enough in this wouldn't a completely custom tomorrow be harder and less enjoyable for him? I feel we shouldn't discourage him and he should maybe do this for himself. He'll get better over time.
