Recently I found some Humanity Fuck Yeah YouTube videos that use AI voice narration on my feed. After using them as background noise while cleaning my apartment I found that that most of them are more or less the same. Humans are the only ones who know how to fight/love sex/survive/etc. How can we save the genre or reinvent it so it isn't so stale?
>>97834230What this guy said. Preserving humanity's existence is worth the deaths of entire solar systems worth of Navi.
>>97834230>>97834231>>97834236For most of human history there was an understanding that it was better to die for a just cause than it is to live in obedience to an unjust one. Avatar is meant to be one of those stories... kind of like that movie about the American Indians that's oddly similar to Avatar. I think the existential angle they added about human extinction undermines the narrative because you have people hyper fixating on that one specific aspect of the worldbuilding and flattening their engagement with the rest of the story.We are also only told that humanity needs the resources on Pandora by the company invested in harvesting those resources. Apply your critical thinking faculties to that.
>>97834214that entire post in turn is repeated "Why didn't he do X?", which is still not criticism of the actions he actually took, but rather armchair strategizingit is ironic you should decry his character, considering you sound impatient and emotional yourself
>>97834251>We are also only told that humanity needs the resources on Pandora by the company invested in harvesting those resources.I am pretty sure there is a lot of extra material that confirm that it wasn't just a giant psyop. Let me try to check on the wikiHoly fucking fuck. >The article starts saying that Unobtanium is a rare earth compound that has the position 120 on the periodic table>Everything only goes more retarded beyond thatOok, I can't fault you for ignoring extra material
>>97834282You expect a person who's an experienced hand in their field, to know basic things about their field.One of which for anything combat-related, is that recon and intelligence is really fucking important if you want to win.Tough shit if you don't like it, but given what we know of Qualrich and his actions, he was deliberately taking the dumbest and most mission-destructive actions he could, fucking himself over in the process, so he could RP as a 'Nam GI.Cry about it as much as you want. Write a gay fanfic of him if you want to. But he consistently makes and takes the worst possible choices he could, as a commander, for almost all the first movie.

>>97833625>what's the best cyoa-related use you all have found for AI/LLM so far?I've asked it to expand / clarify vague options. Like hypothetically if option gave you magic based on single season of your choice but only explains winter powers, it could generate equivalent power sets for other seasons. I've also used it as a sort of referee for questions like would option X work with Y.
As promised to anon, >>97833311, here it is. OC!OC!OC!It's more of a brainteaser than a CYOA, but I've put a fair amount of thought into the premise over the last few days, and hope you scallywags enjoy it as well. I've been busy with life. Very busy. True CYOAs are on the horizon though, sooner or later. I bid ye well.

>>97833242more like>we aren't changing it>but for the people who immediately have tournaments and might get fucked by this here is an extension so you can sort it outI think its silly that its official tokens only instead of stricter guidelines for tokens.But a lot of tokens are very unclear about the stat lines of the token, things like level and play cost are very often not written on a lot of fan tokens which makes it very annoying (be it they have them or directly are lacking them)if they put out a bunch more tokens and make them far more accessible then idc really, but as it stands its pretty shitty. and I say that despite having more than enough official tokens for all my decks and having gotten the nice foiled art ones for all the ones that have them that I play (diaboro, medusa, puppets, sakuya) and that this has 0 impact on me as I didn't buy fan tokens anyway.
>>978343714/10
>>97834470your choices for token access are either p. bandai or packfiller and neither is a great option. I do agree that not packaging tokens with starter decks is rude though.
>>97834556The fact that the Fabled Waltz starter doesn't come with tokens is completely boneheaded.
>>97834556I've always thought they should drop one of the common slots from EX sets and use it as a reprint/errata/promo slot. Just dump all the tokens in there, with weighting towards the relevant ones (so you're not pulling more than one Gyuukimon token/box)

>>97834541Even if you don't ignore death points, Find Steed doesn't have a time limit, so as long as you have one free day of downtime you can just cast it and have it for later.Feels like the best option is to go for Eldritch Knight Fighter so you have extra spell slots to use the spells alongside bonus feats so you have more room to spare for the feat chain.
>>97834541>I'd rather cast fear for one point.For me as the DM fear must be the single most frustrating spell in the game, along with confusion. I hate it so much I'd consider banning it altogether but it'd feel petty and fortunately my players don't use it that often.
>>97834568>Feels like the best option is to go for Eldritch Knight Fighter so you have extra spell slots to use the spells alongside bonus feats so you have more room to spare for the feat chain.Personally, I'd use a spell slot fo the steed and save the death point for wrathful smite. You have to take that feat first so you're going to have it as an option, and you don't get the extra disadvantage without using a death point.>>97834569The spell does does have a few limitations compared to hypnotic pattern or web>30ft cone vs 30ft cube with a 120 range>fear grants extra chance to savebut holy hell, a good fear feels so damn good
>>97834584It's the dash away part that makes me seethe relentlessly, and the disarm part is pretty annoying too though it rarely matters for me because I always remember to give enemies sidearms and bosses can cope with legendary resistance or outright fear immunities. Fear is just annoying to run for me, I think I'd rather it paralyzed enemies with save each turn, which arguably would be stronger, just to save myself the headache of them running away.

>>97832971I lost my virginity because I mentioned to a girl who I worked with for my first job that her hair looked nice in a ponytail, because one of the few social skills I could remember was 'if you notice a girl has changed her appearance, say something'.Apparently she'd had a crush on me and thought i was cute - to this day I can only assume she was blind and had terrible taste, because a joke i used to tell was that i looked like i sold drugs to kids but didn,t because kids didn't have the cash - but never said anything because I had serious flat affect going on and she found me intimidating. My autistic mumbled compliment was all it took for her to get the confidence to ask if we could hang out, and I somehow fumbled my way into learning what carpet burn was. I got seriously lucky because I'd probably still be a virgin if not for her having terrible taste in men.I had little money to spare and didn't buy her presents or go out on dates, though I could and did cook. We just hung out, had fun and had a lot of sex. If that was a transactional relationship the transaction was 'I will give you company and sex and food, and in exchange please give me company, sex and an excuse to cook'.
>>97833365You have to have the looks for that thoughI'm reasonably good-looking or at least used to be in my 20s, I don't think anyone would have ever given me the time of day without my looks
>>97825349Autists lack the social filter to suppress the biological urge almost all female creatures have, to be choosy about mates. It's why mating displays and competitions are done by males almost exclusively (I'm sure there are exceptions but they are by far the extreme minority). It's female nature to judge males to see who is worthy of reproducing. It's the core of why women hate each other, they don't share the same male standards, hence any woman who deviates too much is potentially letting males reproduce that "should not." Why do you think women are so eager to criticize their friends' boyfriends and husbands?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dh4MLTY82kcEVERYBODY knows it's true, but not many are willing to admit it.

>>97827927Literal retard take. Clonemasters using forbidden technology and kicking off a series of destructive wars is kino. Lucas's faggy "lol palpatine was the puppet master of both sides the whole time" is something a 12 year old would write and think was super edgy and cool. You're not a 12-year old are you anon? You have to be at least 13 to post here.
Test
>>97834064Even Lucas's ideas for the Clone Wars seem to have changed somewhere between the OT and prequels. In an earlier script of ESB, Lando was supposed to be a clone, and he mentions how there's not many clones around after the Clone Wars and implies that clones have a bad reputation because of the war, which would suggest that the original idea was that the war was against clones (which would also fit with it being called the Clone Wars: the PT conflict would make more sense to be called the Separatist War or the Droid Wars, since that's what the Republic was actually fighting against).
>>97834064Bad bait nigger>Clonemasters using forbidden technology and kicking off a series of destructive wars is kinoNo it isn't. It's generic sci-fi slop which appeals to the lowest common denominator. The kind of shit you'd see in a subpar sci-fi comic series in the 50s. "Oy vey le misterious evil dude has clones to invade le galaxy" bleh.>Lucas's faggy "lol palpatine was the puppet master of both sides the whole time" is something a 12 year old would write and think was super edgy and coolPalpatine is the TRUE villain of Star Wars. You're just such a fucking retard that you take Sheev to be a bog average villain that gets defeated and replaced in a week. Palpatine is Satan, his conquest of the Republic using political manipulation and fearmongering is TRUE kino, it's realistic and not just pew pew nonsense. It also requires thought to understand unlike Zahn's trash. Chances are you don't even understand the PT and think the politics are boring lmao>>97834478>Lucas's ideas for the Clone Wars seem to have changed somewhere between the OT and prequelsNo fucking shit retard, Lucas' ideas for the OT changed between movies. That's how stories go>Lando was supposed to be a clone, and he mentions how there's not many clones around after the Clone Wars In early ANH publications Stormtroopers were mentioned to be clones, which was what Lucas adapted into the Republic Clone Army. In the novel Palpatine was revealed as the manipulated Emperor and that was tweaked in ESB, RotJ and the PT>which would also fit with it being called the Clone Wars: the PT conflict would make more sense to be called the Separatist War or the Droid Wars, since that's what the Republic was actually fighting againstNo. This is retarded. Is WWII called "the Axis War"? Is the American Revolutionary War called "the British War"? It's called the Clone Wars because the conflict heavily revolved around the new Clone Army which got mass media coverage.
