>>93384255>Best CYOA with little or no supernatural elements in it?A Life Chronicle
>>93384255post uhhhthe other bold cyoa. you know, the other one. the second most recent
>>93375872Where do I get pictures like this for my CYOA? Is there a western art booru that exists somewhere?
>>93384277I think OP's the second most recond. The most recent was this iirc
>>93384281s/recond/recentI have no idea how the fuck such a typo was even possible
>>93384279DeviantArt and artstation both take some more effort, but they're bigger than any booru.
>>93384281what the hell is thisi mean the one where you're a slaver, didnt even see this cyoa lol
>>93384293That's the third most recent!
>>93384314
When did CYOAs with lower powerlevels and settings become synonymous with jobbing and jobbers?
>>93384331They didn't.
>>93384331I know this is a shitpost but for the millionth time nobody gives a shit about low power level cyoas in fact some are very popular. What people care about is being a shitter relative to everyone else. A cyoa about getting great magical powers means nothing if it puts you at the average power level of the world's inhabitants at best. People don't need to be the strongest they just want to be special enough relative to others.

>>93384470>A cyoa about getting great magical powers means nothing if it puts you at the average power level of the world's inhabitants at bestWhy?
>>93384470>NOOOOO I'm a shitter because I actually have to work to win and to stand at the top of my long adventure just like all the other people in the CYOA world.Anon-sama...
>>93384610We didn't come here to grind like IRL.
>>93384610At least give me the tools to do it then. If you put me in as a literal who with no advantages don't even bother with lore or quests since they're irrelevant to my situation.
>>93384686lamentationfags in SHAMBLES
>>93384601Because you can't interact meaningfully with the setting if you're a nobody. All the lore and history is irrelevant to whatever little adventures you can have. It sometimes works for small, comfy, vague cyoas but not with anything bigger than that.

>>9338513018 pages is literally nothing.Especially since it's one of those rare CYOAs where you only read the paths that are relevant to your build, increasing replayability.
>>93385130Back in my day a thread was considered dead if nobody posted a CYOA at least 10 pages long. You fucking newfags don't even have the attention span to post a one-pager, let alone JRPG Traitor

>>93385999He wants her to be a tranny, obviously
>>93385929This impresses me in a way I can't yet put to words.Are the tank descriptions and details accurate to life, maybe?
>>93386043As far as I know, yeah. Tank autists really know their stuff.There's this one too for planes.
Posting this just to bitch about it since its one of the few LoL cyoas around and is somewhat half decent. I hate when picking waifus in a waifu picker cyoa I have to decide what waifus I actually want and what waifus I should pick in order to get the actual abilities I want. I hate in this cyoa and I hate it in every other cyoa that does this shit. Especially since there are some abilities that are clearly far superior to others.I'm assuming that unofficial skins count for the skin combos otherwise the skin combos shouldn't even bother existing considering how many skin lines have so few members which is compounded by this being a waifu picker so the male champions aren't around.
>>93386086
>>93386086Your cyoa's issues had been noted long ago tok, you don't need to sockpuppet an excuse to repost it
>>93386093>>93386094Nah i'm not tok I've just been in a LoL mood this past week and when i found this cyoa I spent way too much time on the LoL wiki looking at skins that i felt entitled to bitch about this cyoa.

>>93385777Dlc when?
Gonna post this again>>93376297Thanks for the build. Making the street arabs your successors and buffing them with the clansman archetype's a neat combo. Gives you seven 5 trait goons for the sum cost of $25 G, and then you can buff them with a surplus warehouse to 6 traits. Also like his angle of being a backwater saint trying to get by. Will probably add him as a big cat in the next update.I'm guessing you had him in mind as a cajun rather than a chinaman?>chasing bugbearsNever heard of this term before. What's it mean?

>>93386624Everyone loses to pill pickers, even entropist
>>93384255AHHHHHHHHHHH I'M FRE FROM WORK.Time to cook.
>>93384686>>93384717Sounds like a bunch of excuses and crying for a lack of personal skill. You were never going to make it "tools" or not.The ones that reach the top and take full control of their adventure starting from nothing are those that have that dog in them. You don't have that dog, you shouldn't be making your character and choosing your own adventure.
>>93387291It's true, if you don't have an overwhelming drive you're never going to get anywhere. At best, you'll be like one of those Isekai cucks in Entropist: spoiled fodder for the first real threat to come along.
>>93387321That's pretty clearly wrong though. If you have enough power/innate advantages you can more than make up for a lack of drive.
>>93387342So now we get to the true thing. It's just powerfags wanting to auto-win because they have mo drive.
FLESH! The FLESH! Post FLESH CYOAs!
>>93387398You're changing the subject. The point is that> You were never going to make it "tools" or not.> It's true, if you don't have an overwhelming drive you're never going to get anywhere. is wrong, as should be obvious really.

>>93385972>>93385999Bloom is the Perfect Prince's self insert. You have no idea just how horny it makes it.
I've got a small protrusion of bone about three inches behind my right ear that makes a dense knot and renders my skull subtly asymmetrical. I don't like it and I'm not sure if the knot itself is hollow or bone throughout, otherwise I would've tried to sand it down so I can have a smooth skull. Do you have any Choose Your Own Adventures for this feel?
>>93388275>I would've tried to sand it down so I can have a smooth skull.
>>93388156If Bloom is my perfect woman, and also The Perfect Prince, then she would acquiesce her position and make me the new Perfect Prince. This is an absolute win.
>>93388319Take heed fellow sons. This is how you end up permeantly imprisoned in the Perfect Prince's inner most wank sanctum suffering a fate worse(?) than death.

We can run the ones, right now. So step up.
>>93385165I really enjoy CYOAs that are based on 4chan itself and use the same fonts, palette, etc. .. they aren't the best by any means but they look nice in the thread and I think they actually affect the dynamics of the general by framing it in a different way - same as "gamifying" boring tasks in everyday life>>93385130go kick rocks dipshit, this classic is allowed to be posted at least once a month>>93384771Thank you! this may be my vote for best CYOA of all time. It doesn't have some of the more fantastical elements I prefer but its breadth is really something special. I'll try to post a build later when I'm not busy!
>he is trying his hardest to justify the posting of shit everyone ignores every thread
>>93389173
>>93388286Have you checked it on a doctor? It might be bone cancer.
>>93388424This CYOA always kind of annoyed me. It's admittedly stylish but it's only a CYOA until you learn its' gimmick, which isn't even a surprise because it's obvious as fuck. And then it just turns from 'choose some cool and slightly weird body modfications' to 'Hey, hey, hey, hey, i want you to read my list of gross body horror shit. Hey, pay attention to me. Aren't I a spooky writer? Gosh I got you didn't I? Incidentally the only way i could figure out how to make people read this shit is if it was in a CYOA first. Could you tell? My mom's creative writing club told me to stop showing up...'. Is anyone seriously going to sit down and debate whether simulated radiation poisoning or acid saliva or wandering anuses or whatever else nonsensically gross is worth having wi-fi implanted in your head? No. So really the 'point' of this CYOA is to be a creative writing exercise pretending to be a CYOA and wasting everyone's time. And isn't that this place constantly bitches at authors for?Anyways, that's enough bitching. I haven't seen Hatchling posted for a while so I'm posting that. Everyone tell me what kind of dragon you think is cool and what you would do as one. Eastern dragons appeal to me but I have a hard time really getting why, especially when in this CYOA they cost points without giving any advantages for some reason.
>>93389287I'd probably take Eastern Dragon and Chameleon scales. Breathing myst is very eastern dragon themed, and the ability to just camouflage myself as a fuck off big dragon sounds fun.Lazy summer days sleeping in a lake, blending into the bottom while humans swim around above me none the wiser.
>>93389287>Is anyone seriously going to sit down and debate whether simulated radiation poisoning or acid saliva or wandering anuses or whatever else nonsensically gross is worth having wi-fi implanted in your head? No. So really the 'point' of this CYOA is to be a creative writing exercise pretending to be a CYOA and wasting everyone's time.Most of them are too niche but one of the upgrades is eternal youth my dude
>>93389305Though when I think on it fire breath seems kind of mandatory if I like my food cooked. I barely know how to make a campfire, how do I BBQ a cow without fire breath?>>93389316Yeah, but the wifi brain option is still a choice. Except its not because no one will pick it. The CYOA is constructed in such a way that no one would play it, and anyone stubborn enough to try would never pick 90% of the options. Just pointless.
>>93389287>especially when in this CYOA they cost points without giving any advantages for some reason.They're explicitly smarter and better at magic as well as not needing wings to fly. Those are pretty clear advantages.
>>93388301My indomitable will is beyond your feeble comprehension. Even in this fragile corpus, my veins are overflowing with vril! Only a few more incarnations on this earth and my soul will ascend to a higher dimension. I have some memories of an earlier life as an earthworm and that was better than this in some ways, but worst in most. Consciousness advanced enough to reflect on itself is a wonderful privilege to have. I'm grateful for it every day.>>93388424This one was always decent. This anon >>93389287 is just unwilling to suffer for seeking power beyond his means. That's why his underlying consciousness is weak and will be left behind when this eschaton is said and done.>>93388440I appreciate that anon, I seriously do.>>93389252It is not cancer, I know that. I've had it from birth as far as I can tell, although as my skull's grown over the years it's become smaller in relative terms. When I was young, it was noticeable. Now, it's barely even there, but it annoys me. The human inability to dictate his own corporeal form is one of the direst limitations to the human experience, but I think it's worth it, because troons suffer in their sex-simulation-addiction-induced mania more than either of us ever will.
>>93389287god you are such a whiny little faggot. when we isekai im killing you first
>>93389346Honestly i discounted that as flavour text - the faerie dragon is good at magic but has an actual tangible benefit related to magic casting after all and its not like you get more magic points - but yeah that makes sense. I'll be happy with being slighty smarter and maybe better with magic for so little points.I guess not needing wings is a benefit too. TThe eastern dragon body plan of basically being a big noodle appealed anyway, but i didnt consider that wings are an actual weak spot on normal dragons.>>93389377Anon, when the CYOA fairy descends and grants the ability to pick a CYOA to make real, you are welcome to this one. I'll happily take one of the eleventy billion forms of CYOA immortality that don't involve shitting out my internal organs while a brain parasite controls my mind for a century.
>>93389399Yeah it's not an ideal trade for power but taken in a vacuum, it's worth the trade for power. My personal favourite CYOA is Night Ride. I don't care very much about power in CYOAs, I want interesting circumstances to find myself in. That's the appeal of them for me, mostly.
>>93389316What one?
>>93389377>but I think it's worth it, because troons suffer in their sex-simulation-addiction-induced mania more than either of us ever will.Crab bucket mentality desu

>>93389534
>>93389507In this case? Because the regular burger is a really, really good burger. And the XXXL burger you're offering me tastes like shit, is filled with shit, and i've interacted with the chef and he seems like the kind of guy who molests his little sister and then calls her a whore when she tells on him. Honestly why even post this? If you want pointless overstuffed coomerbrain powerwankery there's that interactive dragon cyoa. If you want something good there's Hatchling. Dragonfall isn't even the best at being the low hanging fruit of dragon CYOA.

>>93386543Neat. Yeah, Cajun makes more sense as I'd imagine Chinese settlement was mare a thing on the west coast or further north (I think of NO as being further plugged into Latin and African routes).
>>93390092New Orleans has the Creoles and Cajuns, both of which are closer to french descent, yeah.Got a name for him in mind, or would Father Aymond suffice?
>Author has obvious boomer taste for twenty-year old and older media.What's their name CYOAG?
>>93390104Cajuns/Creoles are based because they can cook and they are nothing like the accursed Q*ebecs that unironically need to be put into concentration camps. The Q*ebecians are Fr*nch in every matter and suck ass because they think are more pure Fr*nchoid than the fucking Fr*nch. Unlike the Cajuns and Creoles, they also have a real culture unlike the Q*ebecians and are chill.

Cyoa where the world is besieged by otherworldly demons?
>>93390275>>93385777
>>93390281Can you really say that when demons are jobbers in that setting?
>>93389507>>93389727>dragonfail
>>93390275There was a really neat (old) cyoa posted about exactly that fairly recently but I have no idea how to refind it. It was about surviving in whatever location you picked. One of the locations was Vatican, which was heavily besieged by demons, and another was somewhere in Australia where it was fairly quiet. Anyone know the one?
>>93390322i know it but i didnt save itcope :^)
>>93390104A name's as good as any other. Might try building New York's Fattest Cat later.

>>93390286They are not jobbers. You just counter them which would be the same for any demon slaying focused cyoa.
>>93390344So it wasn't old after all, it just looked like a lot of the old cyoas.
>>93390275
>>93390354Anon, that is actually what a jobber is. Any character countered by someone that is on a lower power scale is a jobber.

>>93389287Breed:Eastern -5Scales:Chameleon 5Multiscale 5: Blue / WaterMultiscale 5: Red / FireBoons:Deep Breaths 5Tough 5Corded Muscles 5My first instinct on this sort of thing is to go full wizard and blow everything on spells. But here I've held off as the CYOA states spells are learnable. If so what I'm buying here is just easy/early access I guess (which is a little odd if you compare to how my breath weapons are appropriately scaled down for a hatchling when I think about it) and not my only chance to obtain them.Under that reasoning I've focused more on inherent abilities I can't learn. Chameleon scales just sound way too fun, but mist breath by itself seems less useful. Combining it with two powerful sources of attack would allow me to mask my position, then attack out of the mist. No real reason for water to be one; I wanted fire to cook food and water seemed a good counterpact, plus its purely physical force which to make a good contrast. Boons are to enhance breath and make-up for being a weaker eastern dragon.Spells:Minor Illusion 5Human Form: 10Healing Breath 5Beckon Rain 5Secret Gateway 10Forgoing the expensive ones, the spells I took I did mostly because they'd be useful to me, or help me interact peacefully with humans. Healing breath is amazingly good for so cheap; no reason I cant use it on myself and I doubt many humans would want to kill the serpent that vomits healing gas. Beckon Rain may sound underwhelming, but rain dances were a thing for a reason, plenty of farming communities would happily give me a free goat for causing rain. Thats easy work for a free meal. Human form is just obvious. Hands are useful. Gateway is the most 'flashy' spell I picked and I did that because a pocket dimension is just too good to pass up. A home and storage I can access anytime I like? Honestly I could probably make good money as a merchant by just piling things in, flying somewhere, then pulling things out. CONT
>>93390692CONT:Drawbacks:Delayed Development +5Powerful Instincts +10Disability: Voice +5Drawbacks are simple stuff. An extra year or so of growth is not an issue when it'll take 15 anyway. Instincts oddly specifies breed not scale colour, and my breeds instincts are 'be smart and magic'. Even if it did mean scale colour im hopeful having three should avoid overfocusing on red's downsides (the other two just double down on 'mysterious', and having some dragon attitude is probably gonna be beneficial if anything. I didnt really need the points for disability, I could have found 5 somewhere, but I found the idea of trading away my voice so i was forced to get really good at minor illusion fast fit the build. Others:Kamaki Village - The obvious choice. Coins might be a bit free in this CYOA because it'd be worth three times this to have a starter location guaranteed peaceful and with humans who will be nice to you. I'll hang out in this village eating fish and practicing magic for 16 years then go out into the world.Ouroboros - Companions confuse me in this CYOA. I have no idea how this guy works. Assume I was an idiot and picked a 'dangerous' location. How could I ever be in danger with someone like this duty-bound to help me? And how is he going to hang out in my tiny village while being a wanderer? I assume that I will meet him in my teenage years perhaps. Either way he teaches magic and will hopefully be willin to share the Phoenix spell.Aura's Breath - Pitcher is very tempting for its teleportation. But I can fly! And fast travel ruins things in every game Ive ever played. Breath will mean i'll never have to worry if I find a human I like and dont know the Dragon Gift spell yet.Items aren't that exciting and you get lots of coins. Probably take the ring so if I meet someone fun I can have a proper talk considering my disability. Super-Lavender sounds neat?My desred fate. Learn all the magic, try not to eat too many annoying humans.

>>93392100Living God or Power Creator, off the top of my head. There's probably ones that are made better, but I enjoy those the most.
>>93392100>>93392113great taste anon
>>93392127i'm still sad at how Rise of the Dark Lord turned out, but even with that said I can't stop myself from trying to play it
>>93392100Hard to say. I guess Universal War. Royal Guardian and In the Wake of the Dawn for short one's.
>>93392100Entropist
>>93386543>Never heard of [chasing bugbears] before. What's it mean?bugbears are nightmares/phantasms. Spooks of some description.
>>93390880>>93390890You know, in retrospect, it is kind of a waste. Italics authored an entire setting (History, Characters, and Conflicts) about his own interpretation of modern mages, their society, and activities. It's different from how majority of western-writers portray the urban-mage fantasy genre and elements, and the only close comparison (talked about) to it is Fate by Type-Moon. Yet, even then, it is still not hitting the mark outside of the anime influence and presentation. He did this all just for a CYOA. It probably would have been more beneficial for him to take his writings and actually approach a publisher, editor, or someone to help him refine it into something more. Several of the sub-plots such as Elspeth's rise to power, the entire backstory of how the Ford mages became a magical dystopia and cyberpunk-land, Mircea's revenge against the Vampires, and so forth could be their own stories to a wider series. Just my two cents and observations.Though, I will say. If he did that, he'll have to had remove some elements to make it more presentable to an audience. Removing the bigotry towards homosexuals, the marriage of the loli-characters to grown adult men, several of the loli-characters being moved to the background or removed entirely, and other shenanigans.
>>93392143Good luck anon I couldn't do it, someone clearly put a lot of time in making it but every once of it feels so fallacious.
>>93392143I understand that feeling. There are just such few minion builders out there. Entropist was hard carried by the minion options and that was only 2 pages of the entire cyoa.
>>93392410Isn't there an anon literally making minion options for entropist dlc
>>93392100Unironically Dragonfall.
>>93392418I don't know but I sure hope so. They were my favorite part of the cyoa.

>>93392955>>93392970>Permanently gain the skills of whoever's heart you consume>Literally everyone on the planet is your enemyIn what world would that never be relevant? Kill and eat a kickass mage and you become a kickass mage yourself. Have your minions deliver you the hearts of all slain enemies for your daily feasting and you will passively become supreme at literally everything.Hell, you don't even have to take any Magic or Trait options if you just Consume someone with those skills already. Need to be a master strategist? Find one and eat him. Want to see the future? Eat a seer. Want to craft macguffins to kill the hero with? Eat a grandmaster dwarven smith.You'd have to be clinically retarded to not take such an OP ability. It's crazy that it's being presented as an equal to just having sharp claws, what the fuck?
>>93392990>In what world would that never be relevant?this one, your victory is already predetermined based on what skills/minions you take, consume ain't one

>>93392933>a single corpse is worth 1,000 DE if used with Necromancy>a Dracolich requiring a party of high level adventurers to take down only needs 100,000 DE to summonWhat was the author thinking when he made these conversion rates? That's basically a single village's population for a fucking dracolich.Scratch that I just googled the average medieval village population, a single village of corpses could make TWO or more dracoliches.
>>93392100Would you believe me if I said "Choose Your Own Zynthia"?
>>93393105Your army doesn't matter as long as you have the right skills and vassals, there's only like 5 minion types relevant and its none of the undead. The only minions you need are fallen angels, devils, high devils and voidborne. Krakens, shapeshifters, deep ones are optional
>>93393184>Well you see the optimal strategy according to El Autor is...I don't give a FUCK what about what arbitrary requirements the author made for the quests and ending. If a band of explorers stumbles upon my sanctum and tries to escape, my minions (half of which are capable of flight or ranged attacks) can hunt them down, I do NOT need to personally be present to intercept them no matter WHAT he says.
>>93393219Welcome to why this cyoa has so much potential only to ultimately fall flat, I tried to tell you
>>93393219this is the problem with some authors treating cyoas like video games where they need to have a 'programmed' response to every possible event. instead of leaving the solutions to a problem up to the readers imagination they unnecessarily limit the solutions and piss off readersabyss diver was able to handle this problem wonderfully, why cant other authors do the same ?
>>93393219You can't fight the author little man
>>93393184The CYOA is only theoretical future sight propaganda to hype you up for your jobWhen you actually do it irl, things become much more complicated.You won't blow through everything in one week. It's gonna be a long drawn out global campaign that's going to last years. Victory is far from assured.
>>93393284Cool sartre

>>93390408A "jobber" is a person whose job it is to lose, in order to build a storyline. The term was popularized by pro wrestling, where wrestlers with little chance of ever making it to the big time would be pitted against wrestlers deemed highly marketable (whether as heroes or villains). They'd "do the job", take the dive, and work on alternate personas in the hopes that they'd come up with one that might catch the boss's eye.
Why did authors start making cyoas be like videogames?
>>93393779I don't think it's something that has become much more common recently. At least discounting icyoas.
>>93393184>>93393105You see, little Timmy. When you BLOAT a cyoa, most options become meaningless as they are nothing more than FILLER to make the cyoa bigger.

He was a studied man, knew the laws of the lands and when he got to new lands he learned them too.And the Unions needed a lotta legal legwork, and he was working cheap. But it's here that he starts to get a bit different from the rest. Being a friend of the Union Head at the time, he was cooking the books to cover a few expenses that nobody had buisness knowing anyways, and his courier of choice between his partner was that union head's kid. He was fast, clean and tipped a good amount for the trouble, so the little squirt brought a few of his friends on to earn a little more moolah.
>>93394378Welcome back from 2019, anon. How was your coma?
>>93394384His Time in the union was coming to a close as a new head was getting ready to move in, and didn't take too kindly to Donny's presence, so he was expanding his services and that upped the need for 'mail squirts'. His offices were becoming a legitimate firm as he hired on a few more people.But the big turning point was when one of his boys was jumped, some burly drunk who never knew what he'd picked up could put someone in the clink.So he took his boys around, about 8 of em at the time, and when the youngest pointed em out, Donny went and spoke to the man, smiling, merry, offering him a free drink. . . then smashing his face into the wall when his guard lowered, and beat him till he collapsed in pain. And then the kids joined in.Since then, the gang has grown, and while the target could be anything, Unionist, gangster, deadbeat, Uncle's Nephews have prowled the streets of the factory and entertainment districts with bloody crowbars and good sturdy bats in packs, running errands and messages and papers. All for the low cost of food, shelter, training and solidarity. And in recent months, learning how to drive.And Uncle himself? He's kept to his tricks, cooking books and selling unions downstream or keeping them from being busted up as much as his paycheck allows. He's always happy for more clients, or to offer out his boys as couriers, drivers and guides. But Heaven help the fool who thinks the familial titles are just for show.
>>93394384My mistake, should be 4 hoods, who are meant to be some of his original runners.Anyway yeah, doubling down on the Street arab growth meta and offering out the services of the book keeping to other gangs and Cats. Not them most optimised for it, but self sufficient and still worthwhile organisational wise.And as for the kids themselves, most of em are gonna go heavy on the mean/bad cat route, but a few, a very very few, I am going to groom for the fat cat tree.lots of cost [12x5 = 60g a year] but it's managable.
