What Makes You Drop A Fic? (kbin.social)

I do not mean SPAG issues or things you consider bad writing/storytelling. What is something which is not actually a problem that you just don't enjoy to the point where you would drop a fic you were enjoying?

I was considering this, because if a premise interested me in the first place, the biggest reasons I could think to ever drop it would be too many grammar issues or characters suddenly feeling OOC (in my opinion).

Outside of those or untagged triggers though... I considered how I might actually stop reading a story that goes by too fast and doesn't let the reader explore characters' reactions to things. Even if the characters still act like you would expect them too afterward. I like diving into characters' feelings and motivations too much.

Yeah, I have stories I want to get back to. But they have taken too long to update and I would have to start from the top. Which means, in the end, I will likely end up waiting until it is completed and see if I'm still interested in the story then.
