>>94368621
Hey guy's heres the initial lineup for the first page of Ultimate God companions, lemme know how they look
>>94368628
>>94368634Dethes mel and legion my beloveds...
>>94368641
>>94368634Looks good. Glad you are okay.Btw, is Eternity the first trap? because it says he is a guy but his left image is a big titty woman, just want to know if it was a mistake or he is the first trap in existence.
>>94368678Eternity and Infinite will have customizable appearances and both can appear as male, female, or whatever you want.
KONOSUBA CYOA???
>>94368634>GabrielBEST BOY GOT IN!
>>94368682Damn. I guess that solidies them as possible partners like Zoe
>>94368705>solidies*solidifies
>>94368634>vtuber meta in cyoagWhen will this cancer on society end?
>>94368727The fact that this is Selen makes it a million times more painful
Is >>94362341 contender for best cyoa of the year?
>>94368755not in a year where magi case and magocracy released sorry
>>94368757>magi case>magocracyYou need to go back.
>>94368755>Pillpickerfag hobby>Knowing anything about world of darknessNot popular enough to even be cyoa of the day.
>>94368634Look it's the clit flicking remaker
>>94368804You feel coarse and rough.
>>94368634>Ancient of HeartDo Ancient Ones lose their original title to gain the Ancient title?
>>94368816No, she also maintains her title as Elder of Heart.
>>94368735Is she your waifu?
>>94368826No, i'm just thinking about the pain this guy went through when selen tried to kill herself twice and then got fired and dragged through the mud
>>94368682Power level ranking?
>>94368851>>94368634*Meant for all of the court companions.
>>94368834least insane vtuber
>>94368851>>94368858The court members get weaker but cheaper with each category, but even the weakest have mythic-tier powers.
>>94368691So...just a generic fantasy cyoa thenAlso fuck the 900 second bullshit
>>94368950just stop deleting your cookies or phoneposting, retard.
>>94368950>he waited 900 seconds to shitpostlmao
>>94368763 better cyoas that wod slop
i cant believe tok spent an entire thread larping as a mainland chink trying to start a race war with indians
>>94369033The bestest author would NEVER do that. He is a man of virtue and etiquette.
>>94368634What is up with those line skips?
>>94369065It's because they're not done yet.
>>94368634The companions appear good to me. I'm a bit repulsed by legion, but that's just my personal tastes.With the cost difference between Primordials and Pinnacles being so small, I can't see any logical reason for choosing a Pinnacle over a Primordial. Why spend 4 points for a much weaker companion, when you can spend 1 more point to have somebody like Daoris by your side, who possesses an ultimate ability? So, perhaps some readjustment is in order there.On that matter, I'm not sure what court points are. If the player is given court points for free, then that's a good working system, but if the player has to trade their own power to acquire court points, then I think that alone would kill the companion section for many people. As far as points go, companions can die or leave you over time, but increasing your own power is forever.
>>94369049Meanwhile, in bizzaro /cyoag/...
>>94369117>Why spend 4 points for a much weaker companionBecause you are, always have been, and always will be... a jobber.
>>94369117Court Points are given for free and then adjusted based on your Family size choice, so having a large family nets you a smaller court, with about 25 points by default.
>>94368634>the right picture is a more epic form>except for Legion's, which is her slut form
>>94369164I'm still changing up the pictures, i think i like this one more.
>>94369138Oh, nice. That's plenty to work with. I'll definitely take Daoris and Z'Gord.
>>94369179This is better (low bar though), but it seems too demure for her.Btw, does Axel's right picture have implications? Are you supposed to swing him around like a whip?
>>94368958Uh, its 11 year old tablet postingDuhh>>94368997It takes dedication to be this retarded thank you very much, not all of us were born with extra chromosomesWe had to lick batteries and stare at the sun untill we could taste purple like in the olden times
OKAY, so like, what is the BEST familia to join in Danmachi?Or should I make a custom god? Seems like cheating…
>>94369222Ganesha is the answer to all thingsMonster taming and casinosFuck them other chumps
>>94369222Objectively best choice for the overall benefit of everyone is to make custom gods to add more gods to the world.
>>94369222Related, which familia is the best if you start 1000 years earlier? And is there any way to avoid being mind controlled by Freya (other than avoiding her)?
>>94369179>One Guy'd into changing the good pictureshame
>>94369297Like it matters, my legion is never going to look like those pictures anyways.
>>94369179I think this is something you should ask more than 1 person before changing aro. I mean, what he is saying is not even real. Just look at Infinity and Axel. They both look more epic on the left. Also, I liked that image you now changed.
>>94369315If it does not matter, why change it?
>>94369297The old one is still underneath, i can change it back in two clicks lmao. I'll ask around a bit more then and sit on it.
>>94369329I didn't ask for it. I'm just saying the picture literally does not matter. Legion is an eden so their form is inherently mutable to whatever you want.
When is the concubine cyoa coming out again?
>>94369491Gil only works on it when aro is working on hers because he gets insecure, so who knows.
>>94368808Like the sandpaper you rub on your oversized clit?
>>94369500For all the dickriding that author gets, I never seen them do anything.
https://youtu.be/NWT-e80E6PICyoa for this feel?
>>94369946
>>94369950
Is Tankista still around? I had a question on the Two Servants option from pic related. The description says I need to put the option on both servants, so does that mean I have to pay the -50 blue points twice?
>>94369946Haven't seen this one before
>>94369698Magi CaseInnermost Institude
why are the most popular CYOAs usually so bad? For a long time I deluded myself, thinking that the people who frequent this general might be a cut above... sadly I can no longer sustain that delusion. On reflection, maybe dumbass stupid idiots are even more likely to daydream. I cannot think of one that has sparked extended discussion (over multiple threads) that isn't just some trite bullshit. Magi Case and Italics CYOAs are somewhat of an outlier in the sense that they at least have fairly unique settings, but they are definitely lacking in the choice department - generally I'd rather play something formulaic with a wider range of choices
>>94370117Dragonfall is a great example. That one has such a wealth of choices that it makes up for the tastelessness of the author, the weakness of the writing, and the boring setting. I'd much rather people were talking about that than this retarded Danmachi shit
>>94370125
>>94370129
>>94370132I appreciate all denizens of /cyoag/. It takes all kinds
>>94370117Wow. This realization took you long enough.
>>94370135I only wish there were more kinds represented in the thread culture. I am thankful for the diverse range of authors but that rarely feels like it's true of their readership
>>94370141I'm a little slow on the uptake
>>94370147The only cyoa you'll ever need
>>94370117Why are you not anonymous and why should we care about your opinion
>>94370202No need
>>94370202He is just a retard that thinks he is doing the thread a favor by posting shit no one cares about.
>>94370247ah, a Sloppaspammer
>>94369946>the setting is undergoing spirit qi resurgencekino
>>94370117bad is subjective. People simply like stuff you don't and that's fine.
>>94370117>Magi Case and Italics CYOAs are somewhat of an outlier in the sense that they at least have fairly unique settings, but they are definitely lacking in the choice departmentUnironic retard.
>>94368634>vshittersgross, as expected of an aromage cyoa >>94368727selen my beloved
>>94370117>Be the Tranny CYOAThat guy has made ONE good CYOA, his only non-troon one where you waifu pick prisoners from a space jail to keep as sex slaves but then you can choose whether to play it straight or help them out on their character arcs. Otherwise, a record of pure trash.
>>94370847what's it called?
>>94369684Well, there's a reason for that. Gil hasn't openly posted for roughly two years, and may not even be on 4chan any more.People remember him because he went through a Tok Jr phase, and did a lot of shitposting. He grew out of it, though.
>>94370871Prisoner Transfer. There's also a sequel DLC
>>94368634How is Axel "Lost"? And are Lucifer's daughter and the demon/cultivator returning?Oh, and one other thought, Aromage. While I appreciated the effort to make all the characters original in the Children of Skai, the character relationships felt a bit . . .sterile and impersonal, compared to the older versions.For example, in the older versions, Max Caulfield stood out to me in part because she was someone (you) knew, way back when. Technically she wasn't the same person, but it gave (your) build depth to take her, as a fragment of (your) old humanity. A way to ground (your) build, and give it a backstory. Similarly, the fact that Jormungand the World Serpent was fated to die if (you) didn't pick him (in the older versions) helped tie (your) build to the setting. Helped make (you) a part of the setting.I'm not saying to include Max, or use the old description for Jormungand. Just . . .I liked the emotional connection they helped provide in the older versions. Does that make sense?
>>94370142Well, posters are a self-selecting group, ASCII Face. They don't necessarily reflect everyone who visits the thread.
>>94371174
>>94371046Didn't know aro could make stuff like this. Almost thought it was made by someone like tok or troyx. I'm suspecting that aro might be a dude (tranny).

>>94370142>thread cultureI've yet to see a "thread culture" that isn't a front for shitposting or an echo chamber. It's not exclusive to this one.
>>94371510it's not supposed to be, it's trying to use a more positive term to say that their shitposting echo chamber is a good thing and to leave them alone because they're just hanging out
Who would win, danmachi or pokemon?
>>94371522everyone else
>>94371510>I've yet to see a "thread culture" that isn't a front for shitposting or an echo chamber/y/aoi because its exclusively all women

>>94371555women echochamber even harder than men
Saars, I just found the worst of all worlds.https://www.deviantart.com/rukkits/art/didoland-348554213
>>94371107The Lost are cosmic entities that escape from Epoxies into the Void, and Axel is one of the few First Guardians to do so rather than being melted down and reborn in the First Star. Ruby Ironstar will likely return, but im not sure about the cultivator.As i'm including characters like Legion and Gabriel who the character could have known depending on origin, I will be bringing that emotional connection back.
>>94371903Nta, but the cultivator was kinda cringe, so I hope she doesn't return.
Question of the day: Do you guys play CYOAs for the character building, or for the storytelling/lore?
>>94371995Storytelling/Lore.Characters are just a way to explore the latter.
>>94371019>liar
where is gili NEED him
>>94371995The setting has got to have a thing that pulls me in, otherwise it's just not worth itCan be cool powers, can be cool pitch
So apparently this >>94362621 anon wasnt joking
This cyoa sucksWho the fuck wouldn't put on the cloak and become some forest hippy?
>>94372440It says you lose your memories if you overuse it. Memory death == death.
>>94372440>it's been six yearsBitch, I wouldn't survive that long. My body practically requires chicken tenders at this point.
anybody has the anon death pastebin pls
>>94372450That doesn't erase the consciousness. You're just becoming a different person. Memories makes a man. That of the lived experience. That said, forgetting the self, or your former self, is a sort of fear of mine. Although, maybe a clean slate is preferable, too? Not sure.
>>94372482That is death. You are your memories. Unless a soul exists.
>>94372480Here.https://pastebin.com/ScEzWkaL
My CYOA is better than your CYOA.
>>94369234The Ganesha Familia also has the most members, and is the “acting police force” of the city, unofficially (Familias in general keep the peace). With [Nature’s Forge] and [Mystery] you should be able to create magic wands or swords of higher level that even low level peasants should be capable of using, like with Welf’s sword bullshit.God, the cyoa is just begging the player to mess up the world’s infrastructure with those two put together. “That level 2 scrub just send out a level 6 spell effect because of that magic sword!” is gay ass shit. God I hate Welf.
>>94370117>>94370125>>94370129>>94370132>>94370135>>94370142I want to enjoy this, but I just can’t for the life of me. It reminds me of Summoner by Peil. A lot of cool stuff that got hamstrung by stereotypical and elementary and gay superpowers bullshit diluting it all. Also forced elemental divisions is stupid as fuck.
>>94372715The body replaces itself entirely after a certain mid way point, anon. Are you a different consciousness then? Obviously not. It’s not true conscious death.
>>94372715The soul is just the consciousness.
>>94369222Join Hestia before the MC does. As the first member in her familia you'd likely get preferential treatment, like the MC got a super expensive growing weapon from her.
>>94372715Injecting new experiences into the brain won’t kill the consciousness. Taking out old ones is just standard living. Happens all the time. >>94372935I don’t think the brain replaces itself. Just the body.
Do people with Alzheimer’s lose consciousness? Are they not real people? Is Bruce Willis dead?
>>94373008>Bruce Willis“I… was in the movies?”
>>94373038LOL. You’re awful anon.
What is everyone working on today?
>>94372858White pill, sad that I cannot become doom
>>94372980>Taking out old ones is just standard living. Happens all the time.>Everyone is slowly dyingYes, this is known
>>94373179Why would I be working on anything you stupid faggot
>>94373179You know what the usual WIPs posters are doing.
>>94373179The thread has been so boring lately that I haven't had the motivation to do anything.

>>94373469Shouldn't you post that in the Harahel thread? This is virtually useless here, since we can't post the base CYOA and lack context.
>>94373469(2/?)
>>94373485(3/?)>>94373481But you DO know the base CYOA. That means you get it. Besides, I don't want to turn this into an NSFW slop like that.
>>94373312Indian ravager and Soverindian.
>>94373497i don't
>>94373497(4/?) Updated cast of characters (just 1-2 new added.)
>>94373501kys
>>94373511(5/?) monsters and enemies you can expect to encounter and fight. DnD type shit. Help me add more. I need advice from niggas here. Do I have to put warlocks and dragons in next, or do I just shove in the MGE wiki and add more anime grils and call it a day?
>>94373529(6/7) This is what I'm planning for main quests to look like when you 'select' them. Not sure how game-feel translates to CYOA tho, still figurin shi out
>>94373497I don't either...
>>94373525Take a shower already
>>94373550(7/7)The other day I showed the unfinished first draft page of the quest start, now here's how it is. Does it feel 'RPG' enough?
>>94373485The visual design looks prettyThe selfinsert Star Wars OCharacter is gratingI honestly much of the time have no idea what I'm looking at, a lot of it feels like a description of a cyoa, instead of an actual cyoa itself?Was "witch" a term with a particular meaning in Harahel? Or does it just mean anyone who does magic?
>>94373565might as well post this one. Part I: Major Event 2. And that's all. I gotta stop snorting cocaine tbhdesu>>94373587Gotta start somewhere. Star Wars Donutsteele OC makes stimulates my autism so it keeps me going. Ye it's mostly just outlines, but now I'm getting into the cyoa-ey parts. This is supposed to be a DLC for OCM's Harahel cyoa, so most of the shit in here is story-focused rather than character creation/powerleveling slop.
>>94373179Assignments...>>94373295You know what they say. A line of coke a day... kidding. Chillax anon.>>94373506>He doesn't know the critical infoOh shit. Did you read Divine Trials at least? No?... Ready yourself for a hentai CYOA because that's what that is.>>94373551It's hentai. Let me know what you think of it after you see it.
>>94371046God I love rape.
>>94373663>HentaiHard pass
>>94373670It's pretty decent once you get past the lewd bits. Ignore them.
>>94371995I'd say storytelling/lore, but then there are a lot snoozefest authors and settings, like Italics and cultivation, so maybe character building is the way to go.
>>94373670It is a character maker for a hentai world with a stupid slave mechanic if you lose to anyone.
>>94373670You could get away with skipping FMSU, half the Boons and Banes etc. if you're really prudish about it. It's based off Divine Trials in the first place so yeah. Which reminds me I ought to make a proper build creation for my CYOA eventually. No lewds, as requested by jannies of course.
>>94373760It sounds like something Tok would make.
>>94373779Also, everyone has that same mechanic. So I guess your waifus better be super strong or you watch them 24/7 less they become willing sex toys for someone else.
>>94373795That’s just normal. The weak are toys of the strong.
>>94373795based + kino
>>94373779It's not similar in spirit to Tok's works imo. Divine Trials, and the recent Apodaimosis by Tim are in similar spirit.
>>94373835A great concept a bit tainted by boobies?
>>94372440Because I picked the loli and this CYOA is now about how much loli pussy I can get without turning into a monster.
>>94373855Boobies tainted by a great concept.
>>94373761nta but your wip is fucking awesome. Hara’s been gripping my autism for a few days straight so this is very much appreciated

>>94374062>kitchen sink cyoa
>>94374062>i randomly decide to actually do this cyoa for the first time>Suddenly its posted in the main thread like a day laterWtf. Still, this is probably be best cyoa presentation of all time. I mean its got moving text and everything. However, the actual content of the cyoa is mid, and I'm really feeling point problems as a straight male with no tranny fetishes.
>>94374140All the body transformation drawbacks that aren't curses are free points because of alchemy.
>Be me>Play DoaDL>Immediately cheese it to win risk-free, don't even get to the minions beforeWhy am I like this? Can't I just enjoy stuff
>>94374062I wouldn't have a prejudice against interactives if they were all like this.
>>94371046Even Aro managed to make one good CYOA.
>>94374322Stop posting Adam.
>>94374243Go back to trash
>>94374322>power to become stronger with your angerNo one ever picks that for its own sake.
Italics CYOAs have no choices? Or interesting lore?
Both generals are really, REALLY bad as of late. Like, bottom of the barrel quality posting.Why?
>>94374370No. End of the discussion.>>94374373What's the problem with /cyoar/? They had a Tim OC recently, it should be fine.
>>94374412It wasn't a troll post it didn't have any explicit content.WTF?
>>94374373No we are perfectly polite and productive here, sir.>>94374389He appears to be confusing us with mcyoag, the true retard safe space.
>>94374322I like the idea, what characters are you gonna put in?
>>94374427CSM fake ass trollposting beoyitch. Jannies doing a good job keeping you cucks in line.
>>94374440what was the idea
>>94374433>mcyoagAre they still on MHA?
>>94371046>supervillain cyoa>2 powersThis cyoa is disappointing.
>>94374440Yang/BlakeMaybe Ruby/Weiss as I plan to use both canon and popular ships.Marceline/Princess bubblegumVi/CaitlynLuz/AmityPotentially several from Steven universeShe-ra/Catraetc.
>>94374487Look up LGD on AO3 for more characters
>>94374503
>>94374450The idea is seducing and making lesbians straight as I find shipping culture to be cancer.And you get powers depending on who you go after.>>94374494How could I forgetKorra/AsamiHarley/Poison IvyThe list is almost endless.
>have a shit day>see cyoa reposted>have a good day
>>94374508
Are the trash retards finally gone?
>>94374503Someone very stinky made this cyoa…
>>94374514I might name is something like The withering lily.
>>94374527
>>94374601
>>94373761Harahel isn't very divine trials aside from some boons and banes which are practically standard at this point. Or were you referring to your DLC starwars thing? I did look towards DT when figuring out how to come up with good layouts. >>94373587Optica is one of the best builds I've seen made for my cyoa, hands down. Second only to the TMVL.>>94373889Great boobies tainted by a concept.
How many times should I level up in the Danmachi cyoa? Do I HAVE to be the same level as someone to beat them up?
>>94374631don't level up for max potential.You explicitly don't have to be the same level as someone to beat them up
Harael is barely above a pill picker in terms of quality.
>>94374631>Do I HAVE to be the same level as someone to beat them up?Depends on how they raised stats during their previous level ups, and your own combat skill, abilities, equipment etc. edge you can get.
>>94374647That's high praise. Pill pickers are peak cyoa
>>94374647>coom option>Pick color of hair>coom option>Pick color of eyes>coom option>Pick color of nails>coom optionPeak cyoa indeed. How did this garbage got so popular?
>>94374693Presentation
Author picker CYOAs are the lowest of the low
>>94374720I can believe it. Otherwise it is just a dress up game.
>>94372080>>liarOh? Is Gil posting again?
>>94374631Yes. You need to be the same level, or else use some stupid cheat.>>94374639>You explicitly don't have to be the same level as someone to beat them upIt says you need Combat 3
>>94374742boring af
>>94374740
>>94374678>Depends on how they raised stats during their previous level upsDoes the cyoa not say that you, the player, are assumed to have had 999 in each stat for all your previous levels?What does this mean? Will the player as a level 3 be comparable to a level 4? How much more stat points is given in a level up?
>>94374753
>>94374729>t. not in the cyoa
>>94374761
>>94374731Perhaps the same can be said of all popular CYOA. Lavender for instance has decent enough content, but isn't as approachable because said content is presented as an endless wall of text. Harder to get into, harder to spread.
>>94374767
>>94374631>How many times should I level up in the Danmachi cyoa?0. Realis phrase lets you surpass the stat cap of each level, so buying levels is essentially destroying your foundation.>Do I HAVE to be the same level as someone to beat them up?No. Leveling just lets you have more stats and gives a development ability. As long as you have more stats and something that can make up for have less development abilities (like more stats), you can win in a direct confrontation.
>>94374631"Level" in Danmachi generally isn't used the same was as in dungeon/adventure games. Instead, it's closer to Reputation. At level two, the gods know your name. At level three, they care enough to treat you like a person. Etc.
>>94374795Make an author picker and include yourself. EZ.
>>94374742You need [Combat 3] for traditional fighting but it says nothing about having abilities that are too powerful to beat.Like, sorry, Bete Loga will get ass raped by [Spirit Fire], if you can get it off. With [Metamagic] you should be able to get it off instantly via some workaround. Hang it or whatever.
>>94374791Which is why pill pickers get the most attention and why trash is just a genie general.
Stats go to 999 (over if SS+) as the cap, but how much extra power, in stat terms, is added when you Level Up? It’s never explained. Only stats *within* a level are ever explained. It only says they reset, and you retain what you had. It doesn’t say how much you gain from a Level Up.
>>94374756Well looking at wiki a character considered a genius at leveling had like 2900 total stat points when leveling up for the first time, and so someone barely skirting by would have much less. Meanwhile player gets 5000.I think the leveling itself adds a power boost on top of the stats, but the difference does add up even so, especially in their weaker stats.
>>94374840I will assume nothing until someone who knows the lore says otherwise.
>>94372947She's also dangerously naive, and easily provoked. Much of the original anime/manga revolves around Bell (the protagonist) cleaning up her mistakes, like signing a promissory note that would make a loan shark blush or wagering his life (to a creepy bisexual god) on a point of ego.
Danmachi > Mushoku TenseiThe former is more cringe but has more mechanical charm. The latter comes across as someone’s personal fantasy that they made because they were tired of caster supremacy so they made martials into wizards that can flex away magic and dodge lightning and shit. Hence Orsted’s very existence.And yes I’m butthurt.
>>94374873
>>94373481They kicked him out for being cringe and getting the attention of kiwifarms. The lore is crazy.

>>94374791>Lavender for instance has decent enough content, but isn't as approachable because said content is presented as an endless wall of text. Personally, for me it was how every option was hardlocked into sex/pregnancy. I like a lot of EDG's other works, but even Troy X isn't THAT into impregnation. Some material that shows what Brides of Teitat do when not getting laid or birthing cosmic horrors would've been very appreciated.

>>94374879>And yes I’m butthurtYour butt hurts because you were ass fucked by Orsted?>>94374950He’s right tho. Mushoku Tensei is a chad martial setting. Martials have their own avenue of using magic, which is funny as fuck. Super special avenue too.
>>94374893Would spill all the tea here, but it's pretty nsfl. Long story short, "bocchi the sith" repeatedly attempted to ERPedo with underage characters which creeped out a lot of the regular RPfags and ended up drawing the eye of the farmers. There are levels of cringe i guess.
>>94375076
>>94374950The strongest character in the setting is a magic martial lol. Magic martials just beat pure mages, and even the setting makes this apparent. It doesn’t give a fuck about intelligence or careful planning or potency or overwhelming physics. A martial will be able to dodge fucking lightning, despite it not being possible—further meaning that the setting’s physics is practically built for a magic martial to survive it.
>>94374819I would rather make an author picker where I'm the only option, but then I'd be Tok. I don't want to be Tok.
>>94375093It's the perfect opportunity to make a "Be the Tok" CYOA!
A magic martial does the following:“I combine my body with magic energy to do le epic cool stuff. I can flex away your gay handsy blasty magics! No curse you cast on me will effect me!”A pure caster does the following: “I cast a wormhole all around your body—not targeting it—in three dimensions so you can’t move in any way to escape it—or even teleport—and you get sent into Satan’s anus.”The latter wins.
>>94375090>someone who is a master of all forms of combat is going to beat someone who is a master of only one form of combat yes retard just like in everything else
>>94375125This reminds me of antimagic cancer. It’s only effective against dumb mages who can’t think to save themselves. >immune to magic >but not immune to the giant boulder the wizard levitates and drops on your head>but not immune to the endless peasants the wizard mind controlled to swarm you >but not immune to being teleported via the space around you into some volcano This is also why mages as superpowered people capable of doing endless freeform magic “that can do anything” is so bad. It breaks the system because it will then be abused by coy dicks who think outside of the box.
>>94375150I don’t care how good at combat you are.You’re still dying to [insert sufficiently lethal force you cannot hope to avoid here]. Like a bitch.A master of the blade, ALL blades, is still going to die to that fat retard with a gun.
>>94375093I'm not sure you could fill an entire CYOA with only one choice.Still, you should try making the author picker. With all the thread shenanigans, you have a lot of characters to use, like the recent writefagging showed.An image, some description, some trinkets, a blurb said by the character, and voilà, the option is done.
>>94375164>coy dicks who think outside of the boxUnironically this is one of the big wizard traits in settings in-general. Intelligence. Cunning. Mastery. But I still agree with you overall.
Antimagic 10 defeats Magic 10 Deal with it cunt
>>94375178First you pick me, the author. Then you pick where we have our first date. Then you pick how you propose and where we get married. Then you pick our home and amenities. Then you pick how many kids and what pets we have, and the things we do to live happily ever after.
>>94375171Orsted would literally die if you used [insert sufficiently lethal force you cannot hope to avoid here] this is an actual plot point in the story.>false equivalenceA master of the blade AND the gun is going to respect the power of a gun and maneuver on a fat retard because hes a fat retard and the other guy understands warstop mind breaking yourself over the dumbest shit
>>94375164*Blocks the concept of magical attacks.*Deal with it.
>>94375218>Orsted would literally die if you used [insert sufficiently lethal force you cannot hope to avoid here] this is an actual plot point in the story.UHHHHHHH- no it isn’t? He literally goes and dodges fucking lightning THAT is an example of a sufficiently lethal force you should have no way of avoiding. At best, you take it like a champ, hoping you survive.
>>94375218>false equivalence No it’s not. A gun is an example of physics—kinetic energy in this instance—you have no way of avoiding. The old man with a shotgun is a wizard to the medieval knight in plate armor. You can’t even have “epic gun fights” due to how fast and effective bullets are. You just hide, take cover, aim good, and hope you don’t miss. None of this gun-kata crap. If you’re in the firing line, you die.
>>94375215You already have the context, great!
Realism, in MY fantasy??? How DARE you……….
>>94375164When I see a "dispel magic" kind of spell/power, I generally assume it will often be useful. For example dispelling illusions and enchantments and closing a portal to Hell can be a big deal.Imo antimagic options in cyoas are problematic if they are resistances, or effectively similar to resistances.And allowing the player to spend points from his general point pool on resistances results in boring unfun builds, at least for selfinserters, which is most of us. Of course there are better approaches to resistances, but this is how it often goes.
>>94375229I literally read the fucking story you faggotafter the 2nd fight with Orsted he tells Rudy that he would have won if he kept up his high tier magic bombardment and the mana lost using healing magic to survive is why he considers the timeline to be a loss >>94375243>No it’s notyes it is sword=martial gun=mageMy argument was sword+mage>mageIn your post you said I was wrong because retard mage>sword+sworddo you now see the problem?
>>94375254Pretending all fantasy is equally unreal or unrealistic is just stupid and a sign of low iq anon.
Imagine actually responding to the physicsfag’s bait AGAIN
>>94375313He’s always right behind a curtain, that fucker!
>>94375296>My argument was sword+mage>mageWell, no, because by that point it’s just a matter of guns vs guns, not swords+guns vs guns. The gun replaced the sword for a reason. The magic martial is using magic to fight the mage. Similar to how people went to a mage, witch doctor, etc, for antimagic, the same way people went to priests for protection. You fight magic with magic. The foremost weapons are used against the enemy’s foremost weapons.Like, if you could instantly dead someone using a black magic ritual in your home, it will outweigh any sniper rifle.
This is still one of my favorite cyoas. Shame none of the Guardians really catches my imagination, though.
>>94375341>The gun replaced the sword for a reason. the gun didn't replace the sword, it replaced the bow, and the reason it replaced it was ease of use
>>94375357
>>94375366
>>94375375
Question about anti magic.I plan to implement it in two ways.one is passive resistance that makes spells less effective against you.The other a special attack that allows you to cancel magic for example lifting a curse or banishing a fireball thrown at you.Does this sound ok?
>>94375357The Galeon is pretty neat. Got Endless Ocean and / or Small Town Hero btw?
>>94375341It's like you purposely went out of your way to not understand my post, I legitimately think you're too stupid to have a conversation with which should be imposable because I made so simple for you.This will be my last (You) feel free to use whatever coping mechanism you need.

>>94375392>The Galeon is pretty neat. Got Endless Ocean and / or Small Town Hero btw?I like the flying ship idea . . .but I don't know about the crew, and picking it pretty much nukes your ability to go home with your powers. At least as I read it.If I had to go with a Guardian, the three that speak to me the most are the Fallen Titan, the Dark One, and the Legendary Commander. But some of the drawbacks . . .the Dark One's contract scares me, for example.On the other hand, if one were picked for me based on my life, it would probably be Crumbling Colossus or the Sleeping Giant. But neither would make me happy - if this is MY isekai adventure, I don't want to be stuck in roles that I'm already a little trapped in.That's kimd of why I skew towards the Free Agents . . . although getting an offer at all would be amazing.(I do have Endless Ocean and Small Town Hero . . .but not handy. If I think about it, I'll post them later.)
>>94375490
>>94375490General all the way for me as I'd rather feel smart than strong, simping for Galleon is more a matter of aesthetics. They're a fine combo though (maybe with a few Nameless Soldiers to buff up the ranks...).No rush as to the others, I fancied doing a combo of either with >>94375003. Refluffing the ocean as sky might be fun.

Hey guys this is how i'm setting up the companions, how does Infinity look? Anything i'm missing from her entry?
>>94375357>Legendary Commander>We Move as One, Snake's Head, Ambush>Power, Nameless Wisdom, Sphinx Blood>Into the Fray, Sphinx Camp>The Dragonliche, SkirmishersI'll need every ounce of luck the Fray can give me since my approach to Dragonslaying is to leverage Wisdom and Blood as much as possible. The big guy's drawn to me and my honour guard while the rest of my men Ambush as One to hit it where it hurts the most (by Hero and Sphinx's reckoning). Given my deadly day job assassination at night is more of the same, I'm hoping to win regard among the spy hunters by acting as a passive lure. Good reason for them to prioritise keeping an eye on me.
>>94375639Got any goofy bird cyoas?
>>94375643Which of the companions would you consider to be your self insert?
>>94375677None this time
>>94375643Make something new, I'm so tired of remakes
>>94375643Why is she Life?
Magi Case had kino magic martials. The founder used pure martial prowess to absorb the life energy of the planet.
>>94375682Boring. Every one of your cyoas needs to have a young magic autist girl who is an expy of you.
>>94375682>this timeAro nooooooooSo she really was a DMPC...Also pls remake your supervillian CYOA pls...
>>94375687No, I just made two new cyoas. Go play those.>>94375689Because time is related to death and it's a good parallel to give life to her.>>94375696One of the family options is Lola from Gateway>>94375703Ivory was neither a companion nor a self-insert.
>>94375643>>94368634I'm honest, I like the powers but the whole thing sounds "Le wholesome" reddit. I can't explain it, but it feels life is strange in space. It's a good cyoa, I kinda just don't like the entire "feel", can't please everyone. I like them more like "slayer vampire". Especially how most companions are these wholesome dudes and girls
>>94375717No idea what you mean.

>>94374693Multiplayer, power level arguments, and lore about the gods. Trying to make the most broken builds or the most meme worthy builds were the best part of it. Arguments about magic was on a similar of level of Magi Case and fan made DLC continued to add to the fun.

>>94376251Because all owls are retarded small brained dolts, like celt.
>>94376195Being able to shift between both humanoid and non is better.
>>94376293
>>94376314Owls don’t have such relatively large, well-developed brains, and when tested in captivity haven’t shown above-average intelligence. In western cultures, the myth of the wise owl might have arisen because Athena, Greek goddess of wisdom, is often portrayed with an owl on her shoulder. In some Indian cultures, the owl is actually considered stupid. Owls evolved senses and physical attributes perfectly adapted to their night hunter lifestyles, and presumably had no need for extra abilities such as curiosity, which can result in greater intelligence.
>>94376330>in some indian if you mean actual pajeets who fucking cares what they think >native americans I vaguely remember hearing many of them thought owls were shapeshifters
>>94375778Yep that's the general idea.I just need to find a way to structure the CYOA.I might go with you being recruited by some kind of lesbian hating god or something like that.And you have to separate the couples.I'm thinking that maybe each character should have 2 perks one for when they cheat with you the other for when they are cucked.Or maybe the cheater becomes a companion and you get the perk of the cuck.
Owls are "wise" because they are dumb. Dumb people enjoy life more. Smart people just complain all the time, and die unhappy, unfulfilled.
>>94375015Good to know people still remember my autistic projects from time to time
how smart are wormsgil is still dumber than celt
