Your approach to narratives is reductionist because you base it on classical storytelling mediums like, you know, books. Nothing says the story can't go on forever and have its interludes and microepilogues or whatnot. It won't be interesting to the reader if a book is written about it (or any other linear medium created, for that matter, like a movie, because I don't consider Mexicans watching 9999 episode soap operas actual people) but if we free ourselves from the classical paradigm of thinking we can imagine a story as a multidimensional object. Not just something told in a post on 4chan (it's still ultimately linear). If neurointerfaces in this boring world will finally be developed enough to allow for two-way transmissions, multidimensional stories like that would be possible. In fact, even you, anon, jumping through different CYOAs is one such multidimensional stories. You might be finished with Outer Reincarnation, but you're not really bored of all CYOAs at once when you're done with it, are you? Are you?...
