>Italics gets money.>He outright admits that he would spend it on making the niche Lamentations into a video game first instead of anything else he has thought would actually sell.Italics not like this.
Magic Journey v2.0Changelog:>Meta magic spell creation improved (no more Base tag + more slots + possibily to create spells derived from combinations of existing spells)>Meta magic (Teaching) Added>Battle Magic (Curve) improved>Divination (Astral Projection) improved>New Factions section>New Companions section
>>93814926What else have you made?

>>93814806>Do you consider yourself the kind of person who would risk life and limb to go on an adventure?Depends entirely on the risk and the kind of adventure. People go on risky trips all the time though.
You guys don't have old men tastes in video games do you?
>>93814947I'm surprised. This is good overall quality.

>>93814957Simple risks-benefits analysis. If there is something worth risking my life to obtain, for example planeswalking, magic, or immortality, then I would do it.
>>93815021So it's about acquiring personal power? What about discovery, glory, competence?
I am concerned that some of you can't identify a man when presented with a picture of one.
>>93815041>So it's about acquiring personal power?Benefits cover more than that, but essentially yes.>discoveryIf it's discovering benefits.>gloryWorthless vanity.>competenceSkill is a kind of benefit.
>>93814998Chrono trigger, my beloved....
>>93815003One hundred fucking pages. How about you just completely fuck off.
>>93815061My concern is that you seem to focus on finding the means to an end. Journey/destination type thing.. is there anything you feel drawn to just for the sake of practicing it, even if you are not exceptional?
>>93815072>t.readlet
>>93814926Why is mind control and necromancy limited to such a small amount of minions? Also no summoning?
>>93815081>My concern is that you seem to focus on finding the means to an end. Journey/destination type thingI'm focusing on the end, yes, but I do care about and enjoy the journey (enjoyment and experience are benefits), it's just secondary to things like personal power in my opinion. If the benefits aren't worth the risks, I wouldn't do the journey, that's all.>is there anything you feel drawn to just for the sake of practicing it, even if you are not exceptional?The normal things one would enjoy doing, like hobbies, I understood what you meant. Still comes down to benefits since enjoyment is a benefit.

This gets even stronger when Flash Step is added to it so I can jump from person to person and telefrag their brains and hearts as needed, even through objects or inside vehicles (remember that I have Sighting I1 to see through objects). Prescient Reflexes let me do this reflexively, and if I get hurt somehow I have Fast Healing and Regeneration to back it up. My only weakness is mental attacks, which Defence closes off neatly.In the Center I pretend to only have the Peak Body, Fast Healing and Regeneration series while secretly training my Intangibility and Flash Step (Regeneration helps a lot with building confidence; you can take more risks when you know you can recover from them).Revelation: The TestDecision: StayLoyalty: PracticalRole: Field AgentI'll probably be partnered with Alice as her backup, sharing rooms (and beds) on field operations. Our first mission will most likely be Scott, who actually did escape (since I didn't report it; but nobody has to know that). I mainly value my freedom, but the perks (and not being hunted!) are hard to pass up. The end goal is to build up resources to either make a break for it or to act as a kingmaker when the forces seeking to destroy the Facility show up.
>>93815231On second thought I'll ditch Intangibility I2 and pick up Peak Body I1, since it's faster for me to just see through objects and teleport there directly while intangible rather than swimming through them, and Peak Body I1 is a trait I've always wanted for utility. I was one point over in the previous build so this should rectify it.
>>93814912Based Italics not caring about what is popular but what he personally wants to make
>>93815381Listen here.Video games are an expensive form of entertainment when you are not an indie developer. If you receive loads of money, you are expected to spend it wisely and have a return on investment, the ability to make money beyond your initial investment and breaking even.Italics would be the biggest fraud if he was to ever receive money and then proceed to spend all of it hiring artists, coders, and developers to turn Lamentations into a video game. It would be part of the big flops of Concord, Star Wars Outlaws, The Day Before, and other flops. To make something comparable to a normal big game, that is 4 years of monetary investment, you are looking around at minimum 15 million a year for 60 million dollars to make a single big-game based on his CYOA.Now let's talk about audience, the people who will give money to buy the game and who you have to use to make a return to continue making games. Italics would blow 60 million dollars making his Lamentation game, but who does he market it too?The CYOA is HUGE on anthromorphic-human relations which is a natural turn off for the majority of gamers because they're not freaky like that, in-fact if we go back to Skyrim a big game and one of the most famous with non-human races. Only 3% of players made builds using Khajiit and 2% Argonians meaning at minimum 5% of people. So, let's say 5% of people who bought Skyrim would play Italics game while the majority would be turned off from it. Skyrim only sold 7 million copies in it's first year, so if we're generous Italics and follow Skyrim to the letter he would have an install base of 350,000 people. He would only make 21 million dollars and this isn't including shenanigans like console maker taking a cut, so let's just say everything was sold on Steam. He's only getting 14 million after Steam's generous 30% cut and this is before taxes . The game would be a financial flop and have no real players. TL:DR Italics is a retard doomed to fail.
Lazytextanon’s Random Bullshit CyoaPick 2Express Trip to HeavenOnce per week, you may pick a person that you know the name or alias of. They instantaneously die, but are sent to heaven. This is considered a good deed.NO-DIGNITYYou are now extremely proficient in anything that you can make yourself see as stealing. Money, hearts, ideas… However, your reputation is now of a rougish scoundrel among the charitable and a dickweed amongst everyone else.Beginner’s LuckFor the first 3 days after you create an account for a game, you are ludicrously lucky.Mcdojo MasterYou now have total mastery of martial arts skills that would regularly be impractical/are total bullshit. Gun Kata, Death Punch, etc. However, anyone not a personal witness will dismiss you as an acting buffoon, and even those that see you in person are more likely to think it’s an elaborate scam than you having skill.Zombies on your lawnWhenever someone tries to steal, physically harm, or pull any similar bullshit to you, 6 zombies will suddenly rise out of the ground and begin attacking the jerkass. Dnd zombies though, so no infection. Will stop if ordered or if the asshole backs off. Zombies can only spawn 1/24hr but can spawn multiple times per assault if it hasn’t been halted.ITS DA BATYou are now the soulmate of any fictional bat-themed character of your choice, who will shortly either move in with you or transport you to their world (your choice.)
>>93815697Beginner's Luck is really strong. Reroll 1 trillion accounts and get all the best characters, then sell them off when you're bored of the game.
What's the thread for visual novels?
>>93815003Did you work on this for 5 months and then get ignored because it's a 100 page pdf?
>>93815892Imagine how much money you could make off of something like csgo cases.
>>93814947yay! you added adventure to your cyoa!
>>93814926>>93815107Seconding this, limiting them is retarded. Works more for mind control but not necromancy imo. Also demon summoning would be based
>>93815897different board entirely ding dong
>>93815003No true animalistic beastkin races = me no play
>>93815937You can do it for just about any gacha on the market, I knew people who hotbox 16 different instances of HSR at launch to reroll. You can also do it for new accounts made when a strong banner comes out so you can sell an account with a desirable characterHell if the luck also applies to your non-new accounts (or even to things unrelated to the game at all) you can just make new ones whenever you want to do something incredibly unlikely. Make a Girls' Frontline 2 account, roll five copies of the 0.01% limited SSR character, win the lottery IRL, and have a cute tomboy who's hot for you move in next door.
>>93815937Gambling for actual money is also a game.
>>93815003What is this supposed to be, I'm not reading it if you don't tell me.
>>93815897I believe it's on the Video Game General board.
>>93816051I am obligated to take bunyip because I asked for them.
>>93816051It's Gazer for me, but I don't know how I'll feed her. Does my semen count?
>>93816051>>93816082I take it back, for some reason I had glossed over raiju's nemesis powers, I love the rain and I don't get much where I live, so she'd actually be great for me. With that, i'll take bunyip and gazer. I don't really live near the ocean, or I would consider the jellyfish, and the lilarune is also extremely tempting. So tempting I might reconsider gazer later, but for now I think I would go with her.As is, i'm quite happy with gremlin bunyip wife and chuuni gazer wife with my rainstorm helper.
>>93816712
>>93814926I have a few questions about Teaching : can you teach other magic users ? K. implies you can.If so, do any other companions have Teaching, or a similar ability ? It significantly changes the impact of some of them : I don't see the point of getting involved with someone like Senris otherwise.Also, can Knowledge Extraction learn magic from unprotected minds ?
>>93815697>Express Trip to HeavenYou can get filthy rich off the stock market with this. Also it guarantees you spot in heaven unless you get killed all of a sudden or when its on cooldown.>ITS DA BATShinobu from Monogatari for that sweet immortality. If it needs to be closer to a bat then Osakabehime.
>>93817001>it guarantees you spot in heaven unless you get killed all of a sudden or when its on cooldown.Might as well use it on yourself immediately.
>>93815897You now remember War of the Zodiac Brides the Visual Novel.ZBG literally just disappeared after annluncing the project and securing the art. He didn't even finish War of the Zodiac Brides 2.
>>93817378>and securing the artDoubt. The demo didn't showcase art iirc
>>93817426The demo is old anon-kun. ZBG made that before securing all the character art and emotes for the girls, he still had ways to go but he did get all the girl's art done.
>>93816051>Uneven number of girlsFucking hate this, NEVER leave a slot open like this
I like gilI wish nothing but the best for him
>>93817459? All the boxes are full
>>93816997You cane teach a spell to a magic user either if they're in your world or of their own magic system already has something relatively similar in store.You could teach any spell in the cyoa to a DnD wizard for example, or a w40k psyker, but you couldn't teach Fleshcraft to Whitebeard in OP (except if Whitebeard is currently on Earth where it's the local magic system).
>>93817478Scroll to the bottom
>>93817498All the boxes are full. I'd understand you if there was a rectangular grid and one of the boxes was left empty, but here all the boxes are full, this doesn't look ugly at all imo.
>>93817512
>>93817537I understand, Anon. The issue here is that you have trouble reading so I need to repeat myself a large number of times: all the boxes are full.
>>93817550Just give her a twin or have some fucking imagination you bitch ass punk, that slot needs to be filled like the empty head of yours
>>93816051>>93817872Fixed. Finally Anon can be at peace

>>93818999I despise franchise CYOAs. But I also think about them more than other CYOAs when I'm away from computer. Mostly because an involved setting and canonical sequence of events established outside of the CYOA means there's more to consider about how my builds might interact with the world.

SLOPPINGICAL
Here's the final lineup for the first set of companions in Gateway. Next will be a set of powers you can get from the companions, and then into the second set of companions with minions.Lemme know if any of them suck shit or don't make sense, or if you have any complaints or concerns about them.
>>93820087What about the hiding places? I was more excited about them than the companions because they are not something done often in cyoas.
>>93820124Lmao fine here you go.
Where are all the anons that would whine about Italics WIP posting. But suddenly gone silent now that we have multiple authors doing it,
>enjoying a cyoa>get to the companions/romance section>it's all women and maybe like, one generic human twunk if i'm "lucky">lose motivation, delete build
>>93820138Anons will whine about literally anything, including wip posting and not wip posting.
>>93820087Just on initial inspection, maybe others will like tav better now, but she still doesn't look good to me. Then again, i'm not the target audience for that one anyways.
>>93820138Retard. People have been shitting on aro for spamming her wip.
>>93820134Nirvana and the Room don't seem viable for hiding, so I'm guessing that the intention is to have them as secondary locations that you can pick to explore while you have a main base in another option. Though, I have to say that the Room is too mysteries- what is valuable about it?
>>93820087>Next will be a set of powers you can get from the companions,>you're actually going to make me take the vampire twink to get necromancy
>>93820216They're both hard to get to unless you know exactly where they are, even for other Planeswalkers.
>>93820223Sin will give you traditional necromancy, while Kleidi will give you soul manipulation powers.

Does anyone have that one CYOA where you're reincarnated into the body of a doll in a fantasy world? I believe it started with A, pretty elaborate and well done. Had it saved on my old computer but now trying to retrieve it I haven't found it in any of the archives

>>93820377
>>93820087>Loong*LongAlso, why does Star translate her name to english and only use that word and not Jin and why does her name have Jin, gold, in the first place when she's blue?
>>93820384
>>93820385Loong is the chinese version lmao, and she has gold on her back and on her tail in the first pic.
>>93820392
>space magic>time magicThese things should not be separate*>heat magic>cold magicThese things should not be separate* * These things should not be separate in a setting that knows better (ie; real life)* These things can only be separate in a world that embraces ignorance/mystery
>>93820398>Loong is the chinese version
>>93820419Yep.
>>93820418>restarting this discussion unprompted
>>93819367You know. This is CYOA has a pretty good foundation. It has a fleshed out world, it's part of the rare genre of Sci-Fi CYOA, it has a classic emphasis on becoming an adventurer, and all the options from companions and technology are great.But. It's not a well remembered CYOA like JRPG Traitor or Outer Reincarnation. Why is this?
>>93820422Everyone else uses long. Why are you doing a "I'm not like the other girls" bit?
Gift anon... Please *cough*... I need the True AI gift...
>>93820432Why did Black Myth Wukong only refer to its dragons as Loongs then?Why does everyone refer to Japanese Dragons as Longs, but Chinese Dragons as Loongs?
>>93820431It's not as fleshed out as Traitor/OR, doesn't have the same amount of content, it's Sci-Fi instead of fantasy, and the companions are boring.
>>93820139You sound like you would enjoy aroslop

>>93820433Machine killer Son I summon thee
>>93820483Out of curiosity - what variant of that message leads to "You sound like you would enjou tokslop"?
>>93820489Lóng is from hanyu pinyu/pinyin, a romanization system for chinese. Loong is the original phonetic transliteration.
>>93820498>enjoying a cyoa>no immortality option>gunfagging>no waifus>lose motivation, delete build
>>93820451The companions are on the same level as Traitor and Outer. And why does it being Sci-Fi count as a negative?
>>93820087wtf i just saw Urania and Ambriel have a light speed reaction time lmaooo. bro our reaction speed around lightning. and they are light speed ? not to mention that you can amp them even more lmaoooo. speed different is like thousand time dawg. that different is even greater than human running speed vs plane. why am i even there at that point.
>>93820510>Lóng is from hanyu pinyu/pinyin, a romanization system for chinese.Which is used now.>Loong is the original phonetic transliteration.Which is used no longer except in rare cases like that game you mentioned when they want to be quirky.
>>93820532>Chinese game devs use Loong for a massively popular game that has sold 18 million copies>Chinese state media has shifted back to Loong instead of long or dragon in recent yearslol, lmao.
>>93820523>The companions are on the same level as Traitor and OuterThey're less malleable. You can read Adelina, Athanas or Charlotte in plenty of ways - Tronbonne and Coco don't have that. I think it's because your relationship with the first can really change depending on your choices, while those in Eternal Blue are more static.>And why does it being Sci-Fi count as a negative?It's less popular in general.
Speaking of the Metropolis cyoa… is there any reason NOT to side with the White Ties? They’re listed as an enemy, but… it’s clear they’re not really, entirely.
>>93820528Theyre your pets/subordinates. You're playing planeswalker pokemon bro.
>>93820528 (me)assuming villainess is even faster than both of them. What can I even do in battlefield, bruh. I probably turned to mist as soon as she found me.
>>93820577Going with them is the best alternative to hiding from them. All you have to do/say is mention the other enemies after you, and their arrogance will take them out for you. “I won’t go with you because that’ll be suicide for you. I have a lot of enemies you see… and getting you involved would be mean of me…” “Lol, okay kid, you stay here and watch what we can do”. Maybe they fail, maybe they don’t, but you’re still sending them through hoops.
>>93820087Tav the Hero looks like would rip off your dick using her ass cheeks and doing it without noticing it

>>93820528Aro likes stronk butch unattractive women. You should know what you're getting by now
>>93820606Based, going to pick her or the dragon tomboy
>>93820622Nta but I wouldn't call either of those butch, and one of thems a dude.
>>93820566>less malleableWell Tronbonne and Coco are hald (You) focused. If we remoce (You) they could be more open for interpetation but that would be bad since it wouldn't be (You)r adventure anymore.>It's less popularStardust exists. Sci-fi is great and totally popular. We just have little production of them.
>>93820622>t. faggot
>>93820634Not the person you were replying to, but:>Sci-fi is popular>we just have little production of themAt the very least, that's evidence that it isn't popular with people that make CYOAs. I think you're conflating the existence of a non-zero count of popular sci-fi CYOAs with sci-fi as a genre being popular for CYOAs.
>>93820638>>93812641Lol. Lmao
>>93820634>StardustIt was a long time ago, anon. It wouldn't work as well if it released now. You need more relevant examples.>renonce (You)To re-use Adelina, as a character she could work as a love interest, a rival, a sworn enemy, etc etc. All characters are like this in Traitor/OR partly due to mechanics like the betrayal or the Dice Fudge.Compare that to Odina or Mimi.
>>93820697>Complains about masculine women>links to a post featuring a feminine manAre you actually retarded?
>>93820722You forgot>complains about masculine women>he replied to a post talking about a normal looking woman and a twinkThere's plenty of complaints about nexus that are valid, but yea he's retarded.
>deepthroating mid reincarnation this much>>>/mcyoag/
>>93820616This only works if you choose two of the allies I mention. Otherwise, I don't think any other allies can react fast enough to protect you from her.unless the villainess is even slower than all of the allies. which at that point she is a joke.
>>93820087I dunno, none of the companions are for me I guess aside from legion, maybe ambriel if I can make him fall, or Aevar if I can work around him some. For most of them I can only vaguely see how I would make them somehow subservient to me, and as is they're almost universally good good guys™ except for my soon to be shapeshifting pet wife legion and... the vampire twink, eugh. The next powers and minions will really make or break it for me.
>>93820528>why am i even there at that pointYou’re a stat stick.
>>93820528Universe jumping is very rare; few can do it, and that makes you valuable.
>>93820452i went and checked and i didn't enjoy his work sorry
>>93820844>t. liar.
>>93820695Speaking as a scififag, image hunting for science fiction races is harder because it (fortunately) lacks the same sort of racial 'canon' as fantasy. You're restricted to either an anthropocentric universe or one that's full of human aliens and space elves. The setting also lends itself better to item pickers or nationbuilder kino than power pickers, which are genres that are either poorly explored or inherently complex.>>93820718>Dice FudgeNo one used those perks from anything other than a freebie. I'm sorry, anon.
>>93820718>You need more relevant examplesEchoes
>>93820139For you...
>>93820087It's interesting how suddenly there seems to be alot of WIPs focused on companions
where the FUCK are my luminaries
>>93820788The minions and their leaders will be a bit gritter, see attached (so far)
I don't like this trend of Aromage appealing to the chud gaze. What happened to our defiantly brave black Reddit-coded author? Why is she selling out?
>>93820853i'm not lying there were too many women
>>93820930husanon abandoned us. luminary has gone the way of escaped experiments, another never ever
>>93820695>>93820718Italics is still making sci-fi CYOAs. Remember we are getting a true space adventure.
>>93820950>they're all humongous titty ugly monstersAt least the face for the first one is ok...? Yea its probably fucked for me.
>>93821122...are you blind or...?
>>93820722Enjoy your dykeslop
>>93821073>shitalicsit's over
>>93821073Why did Italics make them all unironically find a Human-race player sexually attractive and a marriage option? No, seriously. Why did he do it? Why go full on mask off?
>>93821058He is making companions from worlds. If we go by godly husbandry, he is near the end
>>93821134It's too late. We already called the short bus to come pick you up.
>>93821126The humans are generic, theyre goons, I don't care about them.
>>93821194>complains about monsters>doesnt care about humans>ignores robotsWhat the fuck do you want then
>>93821188>it was actually aro samefagging again The seething makes a lot more sense now
>>93821200You anon. I want you
>>93821058I posted in the thread already.>>93819218Luminary is moving foward.But I don't want to release it page by page.Escaped Experiments might come back
>>93821206>e-everyone is aro seething and samefagging!You're doing this again?
>>93821219No matter how you try your femoid bantz are extremely recognizable. Meanwhile>e-everyone that laughs at me is Sand with seven phones. P-pls believe me
>>93821219I am sand, btw
>>93821246You're wrong when you 'identify' aro more times than you're right. You really don't think it's strange that you always come to the conclusion that a specific person is samefagging against you whenever you are disagreed with?
>>93821269>t. italics
>>93821269>t. ok
>>93821269>You really don't think it's strange that you always come to the conclusion that a specific person is samefagging against you whenever you are disagreed with?You just described aro
>>93821136We're so back. Look at the alien and wife options Italics is offering here.
>>93821305>He believes the eight phones meme
>>93821269Holy kek peak projection
>>93821318Just 10 more years until it comes out!! We are eating good, italicsisters.
>>93821318>mid runner releasinglmao

>>93821345Gloria and Never Gonna Give You Up
>>93821328It worked for Magi Case being a successful CYOA with a month's worth of discussion and having detaioed world and lore fit for a visual novel series.
>>93821200>monsters are ugly titty monsters>humans are literal who's>I didn't even register there were robots because of how generic they areSomething interesting thats not butt ugly.
>>93821371>italics>doing anything of worth in his third world life
>>93821399Italics is american
>>93821424Did he stutter?
>>93821431Americansisters... another child did it again. Can we get a school shooter cyoa to celebrate?
>>93821352Most of aro's attempts at comebacks are shit that was said that about her in previous threads that she then projects onto others a thread or two later after she gets before and starts seething.>>93821219>>93821269>>93821320All perfect examples. Watch closely it's a very predictable pattern
>>93821399Italics is American.
>>93821459Poor guy
Any cyoa where I can marry a very cute girl that is maybe a little funny too?
>>93821510girls cant be cute or funny
>>93821510Uhhh... fuck, I can't remember the one. Divine something? Its right on the edge of my mind. The one everyone likes where all the wives are traumatized and the powers are like void, nature, imagination, etc
>>93821565Entropiss?
I wanna be a bad guy
>>93821510Lamentation
>>93821510>>93821565Godly husbandry, I remembered it.
>>93821611What kind of 10 years in the making cyoa is this?
>>93817378best boy>Verification not required
>>93821605Are you bad enough?
>>93814934While i'm aware almost 100% of builds took it, I think people underestimate how strong the whole of biokinesis is. With all of the powers you can create and entire other person just by turning one of your own cells or a bacteria into a stem cell and forcing it to duplicate and take on other forms. You can almost literally make someone or somethign from nothing, and as an offensive power its nearly unmatched. Imagine making a tiny cellular thread thats almost imperceptible snake up and touch someone so you can make direct contact, offensively you can do literally anything you want to someone, even another wizard. You could scramble their brain, rewrite it, scrunch them up, literally fucking trigger apoptosis in every cell of their body or fire off every pain receptor and nerve they have, even forcibly hijack their brain and body as long as you can touch them. That's only a few of the uses, and you just need to think about it to do it, not actually know the mechanics (though that would help).
>>93820513>>93821594
>>93821749I can't wait for that scene to be animated.
>>93821749That thing came out of yoru pussy.....
>>93821643Lamentations.In an fantastical world, Humanity discovers colossal sleeping gods known as Ancient Beings that can control the environment and world. So, a group of Humans band together to research them and form a authoritarian government called the Directorate whose goal is to unify ALL of Humanity and study the sleeping gods.The Dirrctorate goes about world conqiest and uses knolwedge gained from the sleeping gods to build advance fechnology like Metal Gears, Giant landships, Airships, etc. But they don't have enough resources or soldiers to conquer the world so they use the blood of the gods and Humanity's DNA to create Comrades (Kemono) races who are domesticated to like Humans and have power thanks to their god blood to help them on their conquest and do things like agriculture, control the water, etc.Cut some years later. The Directorate successfully unifies all of Humanity using Comrades and goes full Globohomo, one cture/people and they ban Human and Comrade relations and marriages and other stuff to keep Himans pure. They also ethnocide other cultures who don't submit.Anyways, the Directorate gets cocky about their world domination and accidentally wake up one if the gods. Thr god spergs and causes a world-wide collapse. The government dissolves and only few city-states are left with little pure humans remaining.Cut to centuries later. Italics puts you in the role of an Adventurer with a Comrade partner (Spouse) who leaves their home to discover how the world has changed and the impact the old government left on the world/people for the worst/better.Also for you to have missionary sex with your furry wife and decorate your own home in one of the best home building CYOAs.It's getting a remake due to its popularity.
>>93821841Those directorate guys sound pretty based. I'm gonna make them but better in my build.
>>93821861The Directorate did not allow for Human and Comrades to have relations or marry one another. How is thst based?
>>93821876We can change that, i'll get my kemono harem AND rule the world.
>>93821881Alright. You are based, I would join you.
>>93821881>>93821894Damn, I hope anon isn't playing conquest multiplayer if he can make other anons just submit like that...
>>93821924He haa based reasoning. He wants to reunite the fragmented world, return the government that keeps all of humanity together, and supports you marrying your wife.Why should you not support him
>>93820950>>93821122Here's a better(probably) version of the minion section, divided into factions.
>>938220161. Did you say... entropy?2. Its increidble how that one doujin about a yandere moth monter girl has become the standard moth girl
>>93822016Ok the moth is based.
Guys, I feel like I'm loosing it. Was there a Dullahan CYOA OC a few days ago, or did I literally have a dream about it. I didn't download it, but I have time to check it out now, and I can't remember what the hell it was called. halp
>>93822016I probably wont use the dragons (the empress is that weird uncanny picture thats kinda gross) but everything else looks fine imo.
>>93822016>>93822033John Entropy made it
>>93822016The sharks and dragons would be better off as cool monsters and not anthropomorphized.
>>93822081Shut the fuck up retardI'm Aro BTW
>>93822016If you're making bases, companions, factions AND optional powers all pull from the same point pool, you should really consider upping the point total. 8 is already stretching thin for these 3 categories (Averaging 2 bases, 2 companions, and 2 factions).
>>93822107I think i already boosted it up to 20 on my end.>>93822093aro...>>93822081maybe something like this for the first shark minions?
>>93822037>Was there a Dullahan CYOA OC a few days agono
>>93822016Armored, Behemoths, and Forgemasters CURBSTOMP everything else big time
>>93822117Honestly keep them as is, but if hybrids are the base form, it posits that Megaladon would be an anthro and not a human.
>>93822117Don't lie to him Aro
>>93822131No they're not!space marines. The hybrids are more like Wulfen from the Space Wolves>>93822132What am i lying about lmao
>>93821747People underestimate every power in this cyoa, half of them make you incredibly broken with just a bit of creativity. That's why those who cry because "muh not enough points" are stupid.
>>93822117Jesus Christ, holy uncanny valley.
>>93821749Kek
>>93822037>Dullahan cyoaYes - but it's a /trash cyoa by Tim. It's called NoBody Left Behind
>>93822141I want 2 more points because 28 is a retarded place to leave it when you could just round up 2 points to 30.
>>93822258>t. mega autist
>>93822140That kinds makes sense, though you should consider putting the title of the factions above each one and seperate the rows a bit more if you can, as if you're not paying attention it makes them look like individuals instead of 3 units for an organization. It also helps differentiate them, but it would require extending the page (I don't know if you want to do that). Otherwise, are both the minions the same 'tier' or is it weak --> strong --> leader, because I assumed the farthest left tier in each row was the basic goon of the faction.
>>93822303>extending the page (I don't know if you want to do that).That doesn't matter. Never has. Anyone who thinks it does is retarded.
>>93822323Some authors like to keep every page the same length. I wont begrudge them either way, and honestly all the same length looks better in most cases.
>>93822303Yeah, i was already planning on clearly defining the factions with a title for each, and i have plenty of space on the page for that and hopefully for the loner-based powers too. And it is more or less weak - strong - leader
>>93822336Than other than agreeing with people that the dragon queen is fugly I will wait to see the description of them before I comment on art choices.
>>93822335>Some authors like to keep every page the same length.Autism.>honestly all the same length looks better in most casesIf they don't sacrifice anything for that sake. I want to strangle the authors that make the text tiny as fuck or change the size all the time for the sake of fucking page length. Keeping every page the same length should be the least of the concerns when making a cyoa. If you can do it? Nice surprise. If you can't? Doesn't matter.
>>93814806>Thread Question: Do you consider yourself the kind of person who would risk life and limb to go on an adventure?I'd like to think so. Recreationally, I'm scuba certified, and have gone diving with sharks. Also been ziplining, caving, and I'm trying to qualify as a professional whitewater guide. Dabbled in muay thai, I know how to take the safety off of a gun . . .So I'd like to think I wouldn't go into a mindless panic if a "real" adventure were offered. Risk comes with everything, and I suspect a lot of people would chicken out over the risk of getting hurt. However, I've broken bones, and donated multiple gallons over the years at blood drives. So I've got some experience with substantial injuries and blood loss. Hopefully that would mean the threat of physical injury wouldn't scare me off. I've also travelled substantially, and I like to try new activities. Ghost hunting at an abandoned insane asylum, kayaking on a biobay, a silks class in Vegas . . . Oh, and I'm helping with an online project to map wildlife, and learning just which plants/animals/fungi are common in this area.Everyone's got at least one weak link, though, and for me the big limit (at least at the moment) is financial. Right now, I'm in a cash crunch, and couldn't afford to self-finance a "serious" adventure. Maybe for a serious life-or-death situation for me or a loved one, I could scrape up the cash to at least start. But I would need a sponsor, or to start bringing in financial spoils pretty quickly.
>>93822402I hope this is the new version, based if so.
>>93822402
>>93822407Nope, look at the filename.
>>93822408
>>93822414Awww...
>>93822219Oh, that's why I didn't save it lol
>>93822402>a lot of people would chicken out over the risk of getting hurtNo, most would chicken out *after* getting hurt when the realization that they can die hits them.
>>93814806>adventure where the player risks life and limbCyoa for this?
>>93822482Anomaly 777
>>93822482Honestly, most cyoas that make you go on an adventure have those risks. It's just that you usually don't feel the risks while playing them. >>93822446 is right.
>>93822016Keep them how they are. You can just have them transform into more animalistic forms with an ability or something. Maybe more power in exchange for momentary lose of intelligence.
>>93822141Yea, there's no reason to ever use the immortality part of teaching if you have full biokinesis since you could just give someone biological immortality. Likewise you could optimize your own body to an extremely high degree and make magical regen unnecessary.
>>93822637>You can just have them transform into more animalistic forms with an ability or something. Maybe more power in exchange for momentary lose of intelligence.Bad
>>93822482
>>93822702No u
>>93822702How is it bad?
>>93822720Awkward hyperspecific ability.
>>93822703
>>93822724>Werewolf mechanic>Hyperspecific abilityNice one, autist.
>>93822739Bad ability.
>>93822738
>>93822747You are right. They should probably just spit fire instead. Purple fire. That is cooler.

>>93823040A new low, t*k
>>93820134nta but I like the Labyrinth. Can you tell me a bit more about Star? Also do you have any other images of her because I want to see her full face.
>>93823039Which discord?
>>93822016>CYOA has insects and insect-like creaturesYou have my full support.
>>93823039Tok and Fem-tok would do that
>>93820443Aren't Jap dragons ryu or tatsu?
>>93823073She's a tough, snarky tomboy who secretly wants kids and idolized a monkey. Here's her full image, no other pics of her exactly but plenty of girls like her.

>>93823124Honestly this one would be arguably better for the cyoa.

>>93823216Ehhh this is a good compromise I guess.
>>93823237t-thank you???
>it's peak princess hourswhere is she?
>>93822482Any where you dont have plot armor
>>93822703Nah, you risk nothing in this cyoa. If you die, you just go back to heaven.
what do you want out of a cyoa where you hang out with an old birtish guy and bunt cryptids in north america?
>>93822016Truly pathetic coomer shit to be honest with you.
>>93823304Here >>93823216>>93823124>>93823103
>>93823337cryptid wife and/or pet
>>93823345The princess act seems to be an aro parody. Aro replies by seething and pretending she has good bantz
>>93823345Star Jin... my princess...
>>93823216aro, the important question. How big are her breasts?
>>93823333Your connections to anyone in that world are severed until they personally die. Not to mention that it fucking hurts lose your life or limb. Not to mention that the narrator drops the possibility of being captured and tortured.
>>93823357I promise it wasn't. i don't even know her like that. I want to be her friend though I hope she isn't the one who always gtets mad at me. the princess persona was like..... I got bored one day.
>>93823365Shes a (minor) shapeshifter so she can control their size lmao
>>93823357
>>93823374holy based
>>93823377How many phones was it?
>>93823374So, if i have a word, they will be big
>>93823372But since I am about to start making oc I think I am going to just go by princess but maybe drop the persona a bit?>>93823377I remember when i posted that I'm happy it caught on and I am still convinced that wasn't aro that was a totally different person seething. thus the name seethe fag.
>>93823374So, if I have a word, they will be small
>>93820087I preferred the old pictures for Tav, especially the left one, it fit her characterization more.
>>93823411>>93823407yes
I'll be honest.SDA CYOAs when they came out at their time were peak because nobody out in the same amount of effort for design. But substance wise they are very lacklister and hamstrung by western media writing you find in studios dominated by the same circle of friends.Today's authors despite degrade in visual presentation are superior die to the ample amlunt of choices and worldbuilding. SDA would be considered very mid by today.
>>93823411wasting her potential just go pick an actual Loli
>>93823411>>93823407duality of man
>>93823423That is just every old author. They run on nostalgia. Just look at the shit italics and aro make. It is shit. Yet people eat it because they are the nintendo of cyoag.
>>93823428Theres even an actual loli in the cyoa.
>>93823423He vastly improved the quality of the medium as a whole. The evolution of cyoag is trying to one up what came before you
>>93823216I should play more Wukong.
>>93823488>The evolution of cyoag is trying to one up what came before you*evolution is trying to one up what came before you
>>93823463>aro>nostalgiaThot's not even that old. The attractiveness is the same thing that attracts weebs here to anime franchiseslop, but for the marvel crowd instead.
