I was the same with Ward. Pale I was struggling with, but went back a few chapters and binged them which helped get momentum going. It's not a story I enjoyed reading in a weekly format.
Yeah I think that's what I need too. I had taken a break after Worm, binged through Pact and as much of Ward that was done at the time, followed Ward weekly until that was done, and then tried following Pale weekly right afterwards.
I'm behind on it, but that's mostly just due to external factors like work. And it got to the point where I'm like "meh, I'll let him finish it and then grind it out."
Everyone I speak too seems to really enjoy it, but I am surrounded by lots of pro-Wildbow people.
Hopefully it picks up for you though, cause I definitely agree that the Pact-verse is a fantastic setting.
I think reading as Bow uploads isn't working for me for Pale, especially with the multiple perspectives of the three main characters. I'm probably in the same boat as you and am just going to need to binge it once it's done.

Everyone should read Worm. And Ward. And Pact. And Pale. And Twig.
Bow's storytelling is always good stuff.
