I wish Frutiger Aero was still in vogue. The clash between surrealism and bygone modernity is fun and the contrasts are a nice mix of lively and relaxing. If I were stranded in a random foreign dimension but got to choose five core components of it, I would probably burn one of them on choosing this for the aesthetic. What kind of aesthetics do you like, anons?

But the saturated parts can be very saturated.>Color stems from material, almost never from environmental lighting.>Almost every object is made of a single material and color.An example: Solium Infernum (2009).I only now discovered there is a 2024 remake.

>>96612521Yes but I'd feel compelled to argue with her about what setting elements/storylines etc. are good or not and I'm worried she'd curse me for it.

I can't believe how garbage Alcohol Recovery Disposition is in Spirit Conscript. How can the entire CYOA not have one way in it to avoid the negative effects of being drunk?
It's all so tiresome.
>>96613411 because spirit conscript sucks. Move on.
>>96613411It's not our fault pdfs are banned
>>96613475I remember people coping about them improving the site because of the hack, instead they do this shit Anyone still coping about pdfs coming back
has there been a "make your mech" CYOA? I'm thinking of hammering out a shitty one as a proof of concept.
>>96613493so fucking many bro, but any mech oc is good oc
>>96613497by many, is it more like Gundam anime bullshit or more focusing on the technical/engineering aspect of the mech? I don't want to tread old waters if it's redundant.
>>96613493
>>96613503
>>96613493There are a few, two gundam ones including this one, and the other one that an anon started posting before I finished writing this. Most recent there was a lewd one on trash, with the premise of giving up masculinity for mech power. If you ignore the mostly feminizing drawbacks that cyoa, Adamant Pilot, is mostly just a mech builder.
>>96613499to be fair i've only seen one gundam cyoa:>>96613503the rest has your typical customization (weapons, upgrades, modules, etc.), some of which can get decently detailed, but you should go for it regardless
>>96613522
>>96613526It's not really about making a mech. Power Armor cyoas might be thes best for that. But I like resonator a lot as a daydream adventure.
>>96613522just checked my notes and i somehow never made a build for this after reading it so many times?? guess i have time to waste
>>96613531
>>96613531Didn't someone say they were writing a story based on it? Did that go anywhere?
>>96613534>>96613532I made 2 builds, years apart, and I realized they were nearly the same.
>>96613538I remember that! No idea.
>>96613503>>96613511>>96613522alright so it's exactly I expected, it's almost entirely based in Gundam. That means a Mechwarrior one will be new territory. I can work with that.
>>96612426I think about this stuff when a CYOA gives me abilities that'd allow building on vast scales: like pocket dimensions and stuff. Though I've never thought about Frutiger Aero world. I always really liked the aesthetics of the early Halo games: especially the first where everything looks like the cover of a early 2000s album cover. There's something about the forerunner way of doing things just pleases me. Everything they touch has the look of a monument to it, like they just could not work on a small scale.The combination of enourmous but relatively simple artificial structures that suggest hidden purposes and the contrast against the untouched natural environments theyr'e put in. The Beam Emitter is the classic example.If I was an advanced alien race, of course I'd do nothing but build enourmous monument buildings on otherwise pristine lands, give each a generic name like 'The Dispensary' and then ensure they somehow last millions of years to fuck with those who come afterwards.The later games start fucking this up: making the forerunner buildings chrome and covered in greebles and shit. CE's simple geometric shapes from weird stone/metal is best: the look is almost mystic, like it could be a wizard who made it instead of aliens.Honestly videogames from before graphics got too good are great for satisfying that in general. Dark Souls 2 is full of massive impressive environments with barely any ornamentation, in the process they become otherworldly looking. Like someone conjured an entire castle into being with a wave of the hand.
>>96613548Isn't there a mech warrior ryoa?
>>96613548Do you mean something more like the Power Armor cyoa? There's a bunch of variants of loosely this cyoa.
>>96613548Yea I don't think we have had any battletech cyoas, either in specific or in general style. It has all been gundam, power armor, or similar sorts of things as far as I know.
>>96613562I don't think there is, I'm going on the SUPTG archives to see something equivalent.
>>96613572no, mine would be more equivalent to a vehicle or tank in terms of customization and options, as well as items and equipment. So likely it'd be different in that it'd be alot more grounded.
>>96613493The big one is Power Armor and it's variants. I think the longest variant is Mecha, excluding the rules-light rpg.Space Hell has customizable power armor.Eternal Arms has an optional section where you can design your own mechAdamant Pilot (NSFW cyoa by Tim) lets you customize a mech by sacrificing your masculinity.Reddit had a very high powered one called Mech Goddess. But the sizes in that one were huge - like planetary scale - so it's kind of a weird one.Mech Girls Fighting Demons for a Better World has kind of an Egyptian god theme to it. Not sure how customizable they were.There are a bunch of Gundam ones, but they're all either waifu pickers, or very half-assed one pagers.However, if you want to take your own swing at it, go for it! While a bunch already exist, I don't think we've got a definitive one yet. Good luck!
>>96613562>Isn't there a mech warrior ryoa?I don't know about RYOA, but I've got an old Mech Warrior design-a-pilot pdf one. Had options like spend a year watching Inner Sphere tv for better understsnding of pop culture.
>>96613656>>96613665right so it sounds like I can get away with it being entirely oc in this case since the 'mech in specific would be different to just a pilot CYOA
>>96612426There's actually a decent reddit cyoa about this premise, Dark Calypsone by Mirror Seeker;https://imgchest.com/p/na7kz8a3b78
>>96613368>How can the entire CYOA not have one way in it to avoid the negative effects of being drunk?There's a technique that makes you get stronger by getting drunk.
>>96613656>Not sure how customizable they were.Just looked at it, remember that nsfw cyoa where you had class shards or something, and there was a dragon curse forcing people to turn into monster girls? It's that type of cyoa.
>>96613411Spirit Conscript is a solved CYOA, just take the 3 overpowered alterations and some immortality and you can just train to learn everything else. It also had shit ass formatting when it was first posted, and the multiplayer wasn't good enough, so no traction.
Show me your favorite waifu picker.
>>96612463
>>96613940
>>96613940Oni slop was pretty good for the fact you could make a waifu your GF and another your enemy (who you'd rape anyways)
>>96613940I never play slop.
>>96613985An anon on mcyoag was making an oni cyoa, is that the one?
>>96614015A lot of CYOAs are just waifu pickers with extra steps.
>>96614025Yeah, spirit conscript
>>96614042unfortunate, between it being a pdf and being built for the mental midget mexicans of mcyoag, the part with choosing companions was actually high quality and well done
>>96612692Thanks.
>>96614038That's why I only play excellent CYOAs like Dragonfaldk,cke,rcx
goku's revenge arc will be so fvking kino after he gets BETRAYED and TRAPPED on the nether roof
>>96614059Shame about the pdf, make a build for another one while the site was down.
>>96614059Why does it being a PDF matters when imgchest exists?
>>96614189>he has to ask>as if it wasn't already answered in the thread
https://imgchest.com/p/na7konjjwy8PDFs aren't magic.
>>96614216I've saved some cool ass cyoa pdfs over the yearsFUCK this new "no pdfs allowed" shit
>>96614268pdfs are hard to make secure, because they can contain executable code that runs when you open them. They also contain a lot of other types of data that could each be their own attack vector. Honestly they are a pretty shitty format, that I am surprised that hasn't been replaced. Well it sort of has been replaced, but only with new versions of pdf.
>>96614216>>96614268>being this disengenousno it was also because spirit conscript is balanced like shit and the point cost/value is utterly terrible. You either minmax for a specific skill and ability while getting as much points as possible just to attain that or be a mediocre generalist. It's something that was stated when it was first put up and even after revision it wasn't fully fixed.
>>96614375Why do you assume all pdfs are evil?
>>96614387It only takes one anon. That's what was used to hack 4chan, and why they're no longer supported.
>>96614380The skills definitely require a rework given the intelligence boosts from flow and phase should make reaching master fairly easy. Having read through everything and made a full build I would say that your just hyper-focusing on the T3 stuff which is expensive because your meant to have 1-3 of them at most supported by the rest of your tool set. I made my build on talented not overpowered and had points left over after I finished. (Something like powercreators types where you get a T1 and T2 for each T3 sould be nice though)
>>96614395I would never hurt you anon
>>96614216I always find it funny when i find art from one CYOA in another one.
>>96612463>>96612487https://rentry.co/ORlonebuildreviews1I made a build review for lone OR builds.
>>96614475You made me remember Regen Croc.
>>96614475It's disturbing. I know it's unreasonable but I'd like if people faceclaimed specific images.
>>96614503very nice
>>96614410no, that isn't what happened and you know it. Even when you chose a T2 and went for a basic idea (sword kenshin) you would not have enough points if you wanted to make sure you weren't a glass cannon, that including items or apparel as well as choosing talents and skills that weren't even the most powerful. I would know, I did a basic as shit build that did nothing but use said sword, and there wasn't anything beyond that the points could afford.
>>96614503You give out a lot higher rankings than the other guy. His average was roughly a C, yours is closer to an A+
>>96614503>Mistook Yee for YatR'tsy victim
>average Orc is at least as strong as a fully armored and mounted knight>without cursed items or dark magics>not including trollsholy FUCK bros... how do you even beat this guy?
>>96614573>Sword sword godIgnoring that, taking the T2 flow sword stuff + a sword style + a speed technique from phase comes out to around 37 points, though taking multiple weapon links is a dumbass idea. You just suck at budgeting and using the power that drawbacks can give.
>>96614575Yeah I guess I'm biased towards being more forgiving compared to moonman's more objective approach. In my defense though a lot of the builds ended up being kings with caster goodstuff so the ratings are bound to be more samey.>>96614582I should've taken Attentiveness...
>>96614616it translates to sword saint, midwit. Anyways you ignoring when I said equipment as well as the fact no it doesn't proves you like being intentionally disengenous for a shit CYOA made for multiplayer mongrels.
>>96614594It's over. Might as well offer our asses to big orc dicks.
if you can make sentient warmachina, what if you just made a sentient warmachina factory to make sentient warmachina to make better sentient warmachina
>>96614503From the review it feel like my build is actually Rhucuphre's build.And I'm not sure if they read the Encounter and Youth section.
>>96614594Mein neger, you deal with someone who can wipe out a continent with all forms of death simultaneously. Mere fraction of this power, much less than 1/11, is more than enough for all normal armies in the world. There is no victory in numbers.
>>96614503Hey, someone actually looked at my build.>Zhuchka worship but not a humanI didn't want to be the object of worship. I wanted her connection to the human tribes, and the legitimacy I would gain in certain people's eyes if I was backed by a growing cult as a chosen one or otherwise prominent figure.In the long run I would prefer Elder God worship over mage cults.>no Icon of Icons. I picked martial gifts for increased chance of success in my early career. Once I'm in charge my personal strength isn't nearly as important as the knowledge in warfare from my mentors.Also I don't care much for IoI. I would actually love an opposite gift that boosted others based on their view of me, sort of like inspiring the troops making them literally stronger.>No Caster Intuition so casting is gimped.Yeah, I wasn't going for any casting whatsoever. My mentors are picked for their explicit ability to wage war against the Ecumene. Laika is for diplomacy and the potential to connect to Doria.My gifts are almost all martial. I guess the choice of Spiritual Feel make it seem like I'm aiming for magic, but I picked it because improved ability to understand Meaning seemed fitting for the setting. Memory Retention would probably have helped me more though.>He builds Mamet up at the cost of sacrificing Doria. No Brastat or other ways of industrializing Mamet so the Mamet buildup could have gotten better but the sheer focus on it makes it work.Mamet was a new addition in v2 so I wanted to play around there. I do think Doria is pretty well equipped to fend for themselves though. Especially since I'm going to be pulling Charlotte's eyes on Mamet. As for uplifting, well, I never liked those kind of isekai stories.Fair review. Thanks for not having me Qoppa'd
>>96614693>wipe out a continent you were saying?
>>96614739They are pests that simply replenish their numbers if even a single gremlin survives.
>>96614632Equipment uses a seperate point system, which your guarunteed to have at least 10 of assuming you take a decent conscription and aren't conditioned origin (This is enough for a max tier sword)?
>>96614675Your build's Red Drakonid right? You gave Rhucuphre Ouk of all letters, made her a companion rather than merely a mentor and didn't plan a way to get rid of her or redeem her so it ended up warping your build around her Ouk ascension. Admittedly I did want to write a more interesting review besides "your dragon kids btfo the ecumene's angels". It would've gone well if not for the Rhucuphre angle though.
>>96614809Admittetly Rhu's Encounter making her grateful is the only part of the build that do anything about her, beyond getting to know her first.
>>96614622>kings with caster goodstuffThe canonical 11th Outsider build, it's either this or Outer Tide. Even if the Shameless Snake and White Prophet seem more fun and original.

too many charlie glazers in here
>>96615035
>>96615044She's never been the same since her breast reduction...
>>96615044Beating someone in a fight is completely different from their energy output when they’re detonated, this is a silly comparison.
>>96615044Just pointing out how stupid it is to say that she can casually destroy continents with all possible deaths at once when Ciliren entry explicitly says that she can never again pull it off. Not to mention that her main method of fighting Keter was constantly filling her death slot with divine powers, and even then she failed to actually make it stick.The only reason she even managed to survive the Demon Lords in the first place was because of plot armor since that wasn't her destined death. The best you could say is that she used her causality powers to ensure that the bomb killed everyone.
>>96615143By powerscaler logic, this also means that it's possible for, not just Outsiders, but anyone touched by the Outsider system, to do the same thing.
>>96614175Say pdf in the OP, cyoa title Memento Mori.https://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/95414648/#q95414648
>>96615143She doesn't need to be able to casually destroy continents. She doesn't even need 1/11 of that. That's the point.You simply can't comprehend the scale.
>>96615151Dobrava could totally absorb the demons if she had the opportunity.
If you disassembled a nuke would anon argue that you can shoot out nuclear bomb level energy beams
>>96615267Of course. We're 4channel after all.
>>96615267Maybe if you also killed one god and forced the other two to hide.
>>96613725But it doesn't stop you from losing coordination or mental acuity when drunk, which is the big problem with it.

>>96614216This is the only technique that truly matters in the CYOA
It’s over.Did you have fun?
>>96615412It's not over until I say it is.
>>96615412Yes, but it ends when dungeon delver releases
>>96615410>Universal Jobbereign Yeah... no.
>>96615543The sovereigns will laugh at your bones once you job to mortality
>>96615410why invest 15 points in this shit when you can take perennial lotus
>>96614779no it's not, but good to know you never did it or tried. Must be very gay to be this contrarian for a CYOA that's still not balanced.
>>96615577>He thinks he's safe just because he became a jobber spirit.Your destiny is to become a dutiful slave to the true protag with Spirit Subjection.
>>96614779you forget the AP tax for weapon traitseven after the author patched heavenly instrument to automatically give your weapon 5 traits, you still have to sink points to buy the traits lmaoyou have to waste a second alteration slot to buy traits with EP
>>96615584This is from the version of the CYOA I have downloaded, the muramasa and masamune cost the same as an ancient weapon so you can afford them as well.
>>96614503I think it's funny that my build got skipped (presumably for not enough info?) despite me writing like seven posts about it.
>>96615412>Did you have fun?Pointless. In a few months or years, no one will remember those events since everyone will disperse and the threads will return to the shitposting authorsucking cesspool they are without major releases.
>>96615609no actually, if you go with trying to save up, not doing conditioned and go for a normal sword but take the techniques and skills related to a sword, you would not be able to afford either nor the ancient. Try again midwit.
>>96615580Because spirits are the Chads of the setting, remember that a spirit made you.
>>96615580Because perennial lotus won't save you when someone kills you.

>>96615795False. Endings are necessary to meaning, but endings need not be death.
>>96615843Stop using the word job to describe everything nigger.
>>96615860But it's my job.
>>96615334The problem with Yokai is that they're all thugs or sluts. Don't want Alcohol disposition because you're doing Phase/Flow/Alchemy? Your main choice is to take Love and be a slut.

Spirit Conscript looks like /trash/ material once you get to the companions and factions.
>>96615873>slutsIt's only a problem when a NPC does it. Being loose with women is based.
>>96615913Spirit Conscript looks like /trash/ material once you get to page 2 and see the futa option*

>>96615913>>96615919I remember back in the day when you could open up /tg/, find a CYOA about waifus and fetishes in one post, the next being some superior serious CYOA about being a space soldier, one about being a knigga, and a PDF with outright lewd bits on page 2 all posted one after another with nary a complaint. You youngsters and your division and prudishness really don't know what you lost.

>>96615941Isn't it time for your nap, gramps?
>>96615941futafags have always been mocked
>>96615941Thank god the dark ages are over.
>>96615978okay zoomer
>>966159412012 really was the golden age of CYOAs, wasn't it?
>>96616017It was like that until around 2017-18 really. The anti-waifu/fetish thing only really got going when iirc it was Gil started sperging about it in the thread, though beforehand you'd have no-fun-allowed people reporting dirty images.
>>96615941The discourse has declined but there are more CYOAs now than ever before, and counting. It will get better before it gets worse. Especially once the next threadbuster gets dropped. Myself, I'm hoping to see that one True Goddess waifupicker EntropistAnon mentioned wanting to make.
>>96615860He took the Brain-Severing Mantra, please understand.
>>96614375It helps if the site is running properly updated software. The Wojack Party hacker who breached 4chan claims we were running an unpatched version of GhostScript from over a decade ago. That's how he (?) was able to hack 4chan - by embedding "live" javascript in a pdf, which was an exploit that had been patched out years ago in newer versions of GhostScript.
>>96616074>EntropistAnonNever Ever.
>>96615941Nah its better this way. Excessive coomershit is cancer, just look at the state of /cyoar/.
>>96614395Is that the official decision? Rather than update the pdf-handling software, it's just no more pdf uploads?
>>96616092>he (?)Do you think there is a single woman over there?
>>96616086It's mandatory for posting here.
>>96616086Cataclysmic Cultivation update when? Also any news from Micah after the great dorklord meltdown? He's a great author I hope he didn't give up after the isekaislop flop.
>>96615029The one thing I didn't like about Blood Mage was how unlocking additional companions were handled. Having to turn possible friends into mortal enemies -and to pick which ones - felt a bit too much like premeditated murder.Don't get me wrong - it certainly fits the vibe of the cyoa. Just an ethical dilemma on my part.
>>96615941It always changes, but it always stays the same
>>96616102>-oomer buzzwordsYep, newfag.
Are the Outsider Thrones proto Pillars? They seem to carry the massive reality warping powers the Pillars apparently provide. The 2nd is a giant mecha that rewinds time as its broken down effect, One's rewrites a language to allow for mathemagic and the nullification of Magic, and the 5th can provide blessings well beyond the users death like Gods can.
>>96616093That's what they said about Magi Case, and it hasn't even been a tenth of the time.
>>96616190Italics never went dead silent for so long, he was just a serial procrastinator.
>>96615412I never got to post my build because i am a retard who needs to say something about every single choice i made and never got around finishing the last ones
>>96616185ok coomer
dark fantasy vampire cyoa when??
>>96616220That's true, but EntropistAnon said he wouldn't come back until the CYOA was done. Either we'll see Exalted Conquest or the suggestion will have started a whole subgenre of minion pickers. I'm banking on a release in the spring of next year, personally, and maybe a mention of his progress around new year's.
>>96616244Slayer Vampire.
Where is Magi Case Redux? Where is the Luminary update? Where those all lies?
>>96616189Imo it's unclear whether outsider corpses have power thanks to Outsider-worship producing a sort of accidental mage-cult, or if the Outsider System itself imbues a sort of proto-divinity by empowering the Outsider to write destiny, something ordinarily the domain of Elder Gods. The latter could reasonably be thought of as a proto-pillar, but the former is just ordinary mage cult shit.
>>96616263they're forever projects, that will never be released lmao, like, how many times do you need to ""release"" your cyoa??
>>96616263I will release the best CYOA the world has ever seen tomorrow*
>>96616291>tomorrowcounting with Italics' logic I see.
>>96616287Third time's the charm.
>>96616280Sarmat's description has text about him deciding fate while still in the heavens but that could just be fluff for him giving death letters. The system was made primarily by SRTR with YRMD and JNPL supporting. Since it includes Undead characters, it makes their comments about not being able to help Savmak kinda just seem like spite on their part since they can clearly actually affect them.
Has anyone done a race/unit tierlists for Isekai Dark Overlord? I'm curious where Plantoids, Elementals and Slimes would rank. I feel like their sheer utility and variance of their physical forms makes much more highly valuable than generic fantasy humanoids.I still thinking about making a fun gimmicky PvZ inspired build focused on Plantoids.
>>96616322You have to understand that even the Elder Gods interact with the world via narrative. It's not that they CAN'T help Savmak, but that his letters and situation make helping him narratively troublesome, same as One being able to reincarnate as an undead. The system provides several ways to do it, or you can do so manually. The most obvious, is having him merge with the other Savmak so he's no longer stuck in the sword.
>>96614503>Illior merges with Gunter 40 years in, but defeats 0^0 earlyProbably the best outcome that I could have asked for. Hopefully the Dorian alliance lasted longer than the Ecumene, and helped against the nightmare, but I did leave a lot unsaid about long-term plans.Thank you for this. It was fun to read them all.
>>96616322They are helping him, he’s right there for you to choose, sort of.
>>96613411*Points to sign*
I love cyoas
>>96616190Italics isn't a crybaby.
>>96616550>[lie]
I wonder if Iotated Lesser Yus can be abused by giving it to Savmak.Outsider System counts both girl and sword as single being for you to pick. Being "rebuilt" my just set original Savmak free, while Girl Savmak just stays herself but without fate connection to the sword.
>>96616322Since the world has to be internally consistent and they are also a part of the narrative, they can't just wave a wand and solve all the issues plaguing the world. What [YMRD] meant is that it is difficult to guide a story so it ends with Savmak soul being released from the sword organically.Even if [SRTR] was the one who proposed it, the system was set up by the three of them so it can guide a plot so certain things are guaranteed to happen, but even then it has limits.
Savmak is one of the companions I wish had more personality explained.Same with Rhucuphre and ???.Hard to get a read on them and it shows when you read other anons plans with them.
>>96614503Will you do future loners as well?
>>96616590It says she's quiet and sullen but internally seething with rage and indignation, that she's driven to take over the Exarchate no matter what. What more do you need, her favorite flavor of ice cream?
>>96616563>counts both girl and sword as single being for you to pickNot really, you only pick girl Savmak as your companion, the sword is just an accessory holding some angry ghost. You can pick her and decide not to release him and just use her for her sword, eyes, claim on the Exarchate or cuteness.
>>96616602Her stance on issues for one. The exarchate civil war has a bit with her replacing Erginter worship with Inga Yesod worship which is something I wouldn't attribute to her otherwise.
>>96616630Well Erginter did kick her ancestor's shit in and steal the sword, so it makes sense for there to be a familial grudge.
>>96616630Isn't that because Erginter killed one of her ancestors to steal the Savmak sword? Also, Inga backed her family and conspired with them to take over the Exarchate, Erginter was their enemy. Makes sense for them not to acknowledge her as the 8th Outsider.
>>96616602what about savmak (sword) favorite flavor of icecream?
>>96616630Because Inga was allied with her family while Erginter allied the Sarmats. It's mentioned to be a peasant rebellion from old traditionalist who want the old dynasty back, of course they will count Inga as an outsider again.
>>96616653Butternut Pecan like all paranoid schizos.
>>96616602I do want to know her favorite flavor of ice cream.
>>96616590She’s a cute kuudere.
>>96616630She also has No Open Worship for Charlie instead of it being forbidden.Which is an interesting tell.
>>96616680Yeah, ??? is great.Fully worth True Love investment.
>>96616680Exactly why it is important to get a good read on characters that have the waifu factor in them. Particularly ones that have family fated interactions with fucking over an Outsider.
>>966165902/3 are cute kuudere's, but certain anons will guess it wrong
>>96616681That's just the most anti-Charlotte as you can get without abolishing the heterodoxy. The reformers do it too, and they'e Blues.
>>96616700Rhucy is yandere not kuudere
>>96616680>It took a doomed yuri baby to finally make the kuudere waifu keter wanted all along>It hurts to even see her so she will never enjoy her kuudere daughterwifetragic
>>96616712>RhucyI am too much of a coward to take her as a mentor.
>>96616715Nah, ??? is a quiet but seething with rage girl who uses her power to run from the consequences of her actions and has developed a superiority complex. Hence the comment on her not being invincible despite her powers.
>>96616721>I am too much of a [survivor] to take her as a mentor.No shame in that
Rhucuphre won't kill you. She will gaslight you into supporting her goals even if you still intend on killing her. See Erginter.
>>96616728Where the rage?
>people were actually talking about the danmachi cyoa in the other thread while I was away ReeeReeeeeeeREEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>96616749She has lesbians who broke up as parents who abandoned her. That is the natural reaction to that.
>>96616689True Love is evil brainwashing
>>96616764Who cares, Free will is a lie. So let's just do as we will.
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
True Love just arranges events to cater to both yours and the character's sense of romance and give you all the tender to ignite into love. It doesn't actually affect the character's mind beyond making them consider you as an option.They can still choose to reject you.
>>96616754>>96616777D’aw poor rat maybe you should kill your self :)
>>96616788>They can still choose to reject you.Still laughing at the guys who picked it believing it's mind control
>>96616788It's pretty much the same as companions.You get a good chance to form a relationship but they aren't bound to you beyond that.
True love should be a -1 destiny point perk
>>96616881Love is power though.
>>96616681>>96616707Basically the Exarchate treats 0^0 and Charlotte as different people.
>>96616952The traditionalists(the ones currently in charge) do so, but most anti-Charlie factions that still want to keep the Heterodoxy either forbid worship of her or don't allow open worship.
What is Dirk Yesod’s tax policy?
>>96617035Tax evasion punishable by undeath.
>>96617035Exactly what the citizens can handle and exactly the amount of funds needed for the country
>>96617035You can pay in bones.
>>96617004Why does the Old Throne support the Whites?Why does Malkuth support radical blues?
>>96617035To this day, I still don't know what Ned Stark's tax policy is, but that's not relevant to cyoag
>>96616764Unless it's the 11th using it, in that case he'll fumble and waste it.
>>96617065>the Old ThroneFellow Outsider-origin state, trying to maintain the status quo and keep the Exarchate strong for the invasion of the Ecumene instead of losing its might in internal squabbles and reorganisation into a Southlander barbarian state.>MalkuthUltra orthodox pro-Elder God state that's almost theocratic, they want to erase every possibility of 0^0 gaining a foothold over the Exarchate's faith.
>>96617065>Why does the Old Throne support the Whites?All the factions they're backing are extremely likely to (Your) faction once you show up and reveal yourself
>>96617065Malkuth supports the Southlander or traditional Elder God worship changes due to their own Southlander population and [JNPL] fixation.Old Throne supports the whites because they would be the most stable against the Ecumene.
>>96617065>Why does the Old Throne support the Whites?Vtorusha and Blues empower their allies.>Why does Malkuth support radical blues?No special love for Outsiders, love for Elder Gods and they cooperate with Empire and Dis against Ecumene so supporting more anti-Ecumene faction (Blues as a whole) is in line with their goals.
>>96616788What a WASTE of points, a lot of Encounters already do that if you don't pick some emotionless slog or insane woman as your wife.
>>96617085I wonder how Jdan's plan interacts with a Savmakx11th couple, are his agents going to help push along a White-Yellow resolution?
>>96617091>alliesMeant to say rivals.
>>96617085What if the 11th is a momma's boy and is a reformer blue, or supports the crown of outside by marrying Kalliope to get an alliance and personal union with the Empire to fight the Ecumene?
>>96617091Wait how does Vtoursha empower anyone? She is stuck inside the robot.
>>96617122If the 11th is pro-Empire then the Outside Blues are basically going to unify with the mainstream White factions since they'll both want the same thing (11th on top with his wife being Kalliope.)
What will you tell ??? after she picks Anonymous as her next code name
>>96617122Jdan would probably swap his gameplan to support you due to him being a looper. As long as you actually are against the Ecumene. Alternatively he might give you a free dating advice mentorship if he knows your marriage with Kalliope will fall through because you are a sperg.
>>96617122>>96617138This still achieves the goal of keeping the Exarchate a strong, stable nation capable of contributing against Charlie btw.
>>96617132Vtoursha worship is nice for Old Throne since they cling to her legacy.And Blues mostly favored by Empire and Malkuth whom despite threat possessed by Ecumene still remains political rivals to Old Throne so it is unlikely that Jdan is too interested in empowering Empire or Malkuth.
>>96616721I don't think she's a must-pick or anything, she's good if you're also an apocalypse cultist (whether nightmare or izhitsa flavor), and she's risky but extremely useful if you're going for a non-apocalyptic stealth strategy like trapping her in a logic error or the vtorusha surprise. The classic Buki doesn't benefit much.
>>96617152Jdan can no longer go back and his experience forced him to remain sitting on a chair during all his years. He can probably tell you a general idea of the events that will likely happen, not an extremely personalized account.That's for Geminara to tell you since she was actually your future friend.
>>96617214He still gets fed information from Geminara. Hence why it is a betrayal for her to get up and leave if she is your companion.
>>96617065The real fucky outcome is going to be when you have Jdan and Dirk as Mentors and plan to take over the Exarchate. Assuming you don't piss off Dirk it's very likely he's going to switch his nation to supporting the Whites, or at least drop open support for the Blues (assuming you're not a Blue.)
>>96617214Fun fact! The nature of Jdan's character means that your guarunteed to lose to charlie assuming he does nothing by authorial fiat (Assuming you don't go in planning to destroy the old throne which I guess makes destroying them mandatory from a planning perspective to assume you win consistently)
>>96617093It's just an easy way to get a romance plot started in your quest and there are choices that give it to you for free. You can save yourself the small cost and try your luck with any of your companions but you have to be sure that you can make it work. Remember that events are not guaranteed to go well for you, so it may very well hurt your chances at a relationship with the character if the encounter ends with you failing to stop an assassination for example.
>>96612327still working on it.
>>96617234>your guarunteed to lose to charlie assuming he does nothing by authorial fiatThe only guarantee is that the Old Throne(sometimes the actual chair) will fall to Charlie if he does nothing
>26 years old and married king (well, not technically but still)>no children, or at least none worth mentioning in the outsider systemWhat the fuck is his problem? Does he have no consideration for my crackpot builds?
>>96617263He was waiting for Outsider spawn year to have a child.
>You know they say that all causes of death are enforced equal, but you look at me and you look at Nilmatrix and you can see that statement is NOT TRUE. See, normally if you go one on one with another mathemagician, you got a 50/50 chance of winning. But I'm a NUMEROLOGY FREAK and I'm NOT NORMAL! So you got a 11%, AT BEST, at beat me. Then you add Zenia to the mix, your chances of winning DRASTIC GO DOWN. See the 3 way at Shadow of God, you got a 50 - 1 chance of winning, but I, I got a 60 and 90/900 chance of winning, because Nilmatrix KNOWS she can't beat me and she's not even gonna calculate it!So Nilmatrix, you take your 50 - 1 chance, minus my 11% chance and you got a 700/9 chance of winning at Shadow of God. But THEN you take your 11% chance of winning, if we was to go one on one, and then add 60 and 90/900, I got a 400% Chance of winning at Shadow of God. See horsie, the numbers don't lie, and they spell ELEVEN for you at Shadow of God.
>>96616680I love cute kuuderes.
>>96617263I see cute boy with cute abs, I jerk it, simple as.
>>96617226She most likely just tells him general events, not an accounted detail of everything that could possibly happen, since she herself is also sitting on the throne with nothing else to do.
>>96617234>>96617251The only guarantee is that Jdan will experience iterations where he loses. Him specifically, in specific iterations, of which he experiences a limited amount.
>>96617251It's stated that he has at bare minimum looped more than once and getting on your good side (Using time hax) if you're winning and the old throne is failing is beyond obvious, this means that the ecumene can at bare minimum reach the core of one of the planets most well defended cities with you actively working against them.
>>96617263Potential children might show up in the new siblings page? If they're not even there, then either he or Senamotis(probably him) is infertile without the Outsider system interfering.
>>96617275Would Scott Steiner be a powerful Mathemagician?
>>96617292He would destroy mathemagic in his attempts to use it.
this much samefagging should be met with a rangeban for your entire town.
>>96617234He only knows that he would have lost if he remained on the throne. It's just as likely that even without your interference, his new approach actually stops her from gaining a hold in the continent without you having to do anything.
>>96617273Children born after you are also picked up by the Outsider system, so if they don't even show up in the new siblings page, then his kid is either unnotable somehow or he won't have kids.
>>96617152Gosh Jdan is such a bro. I gotta make it up for him. What should I get him?
>>96615876Stagnation is a kind of ending.
>>96617263Considering how baited the Outsider is into having him and his wife cheat on each other, I think their relationship might not be very good.
>>96617312You have to remember that the Outsider system is inherently meant to bring chaos and change into the world. Destroying a big nations rulers marriage is definitely normal operation for it.
>>96617307A new elf wife.
>>96617263Maybe he has a really close male friend, and your dad spends most of his time with him and is only with your mom romantically to have heirs?
>>96617278That's nice dear.>>96617273>>96617288I really hope we get a Sarmat/a child in v3 then. Just assuming there will be an heir is not very satisfying.>>96617312A bastard on either side is fine. I just need a clear descendant of Sarmat that isn't too old to go an an adventure.
>>96617285>getting on your good sideAgain, he could never get up from the throne as long as he kept doing that. There's no guarantee that he managed to work together with you without actually standing up to try and influence things himself. Even if he was on the throne for a thousand years, there's still a hard limit on the things he could have seen and path he tried to take.
>>96612463Is there any way to glean information on empyreans besides ingas notes? I ran out on encounters and want to have actual fun on my adventures, not just cheese encounters for muh lost lore.
>>96617349Gerwgin took notes too. Although it's not clear how much useful info he actually got.
>>96617349You can be on Mamet or sneak into Tsoshu and kidnap some actual ones.
>>96617234>>96617304It never actually specifies that the ones who kill him are Charlie/the Ecumene. Technically, it could be someone else...
>>96617349Capture Omega/Keter/Thaumiel and experiment on them? Somehow fix Inga and get her to tell you? Control Inga into sharing? >>96617355it has info on their weaknesses and tactics but I doubt he got any information on empyreality as it's own thing. Nilmatrix jobbed hard if she shared that.
>>96617004Why do the blues hate the Purple Council do they all want monarchy and not a Republic?
>>96617368Republics, democracy and meritocracy are an Outsider construct, Anon. We need to go back to our Southlander roots, with comitats putting the serfs back where they belong.
>>96617368Note that the blues that reduce the council's power also empower either the nobles or the crown.
>>96617368It's your reminder that Comitats deserve nothing
>>96617349It's just Khier applied like Zemlya to someone, the gift page practically spells it out.Gewrgin just learned how they function as individuals and as an army to defeat, because they can be killed just like anyone else, it's just somewhat harder to do. Just treat that investigation as a part of the story that happens outside the purview of the system.
>>96617368Most likely because Purple Council is heavily leaning into White camp and Outsider worship by design. With Blues favoring Elder Gods and Southlander identity, this makes Purple Council a political sign of their opponent in their eyes even if they would be fine with it otherwise. Same with Heterodoxy as religious entity.
>>96614503Your critique of my build seems rather retarded. A kingly build built around magic and intellectual ability and bringing in modernising technology. To command and control a large global alliance of realms and talented individuals and your critique is that I'm not a martial build so therefore I die pronto. I have all my companions fated and not and my magical and intellectual abilities to defend against that but all that counts for naught with you.
>>96617375But Southlanders before the invasion were steppe nomads they did not have serfdom or nobility until after the conquest.
>>96616006>implying that millennials like futa dick up their asslol lmao
>>96617420You want to skip straight to slavery of antiquity? I like your fervour!
>>96617410His ratings are bullshit sometimes, i'm also salty of the multiplayer ratings. Just live on with it.
>>96617359>>96617365Takes too long or makes me an asshole. Also didnt pick Inga as a companion.>>96617355yeah like >>96617365 said, had the same idea but Gewrgin is not a mage but a soldier lacking the intricacies of the process.>>96617387Yeah but you need a proper way to initiate research other than knowing that A leads to B. And i dont have Keter either lmao.I hate the encounter system damn it, wish you could buy more of them. Inga and draconic solipsism eat up so much, not to speak of the gift inheriting that straight up cripples you if they take up an arm/leg slot. removing three entire encounters to fix the issue if you mesh well with a parent.
>>96617425Firstborn empire. Now that was a real state.
>>96617378I understand empowering the crown that makes sense, but why would the Abolitionists aka my Mom Senamotis want Comitat bums to be given power. Nobility always chaffes under royal authority. I get that she wants to be crowned that makes sense and is logical. But do we need comitats?
>>96617438Who is going to rule your individual territories for you?
>>96617453Governors you appoint that you can have their position revoked at will. Honestly you should do what the Ancient Persians/Romans did and separate your generals from your governors. That way secessionist rebellions will be much less likely.
>>96617435What's your build? Inga figured it out in around 20 years by researching Undeath and the nightmare to find its opposite. You might be able to do the same depending on your build.
>>96617453nta but I will just spawn majins oprichniks
>>96617435Just accept that you cannot get everything and focus on what you like. If you have no Empyrean allies, mentors and don't want to pick the encounters that use the concept then just don't use it, Keter did that and lost anyway.Being obsessed thinking that you won't be strong unless you get all the 'accepted' strong choices is only going to hurt your enjoyment of the cyoa.
>>96617465>>96617475This is smarter, but do note that this requires a higher level of centralization and communicative infrastructure to manage, which the implementation of is a process.
>>96617093None of the encounters guarantee that she'll be interested in you wtf are you talking about. People can have emotional moments together without wanting to fuck.
>>96617465>Persians/Romans did and separate your generals from your governors.You mean the method that constantly failed because generals always forced their way into power?Her main base of support are the other nobles, she won't just suddenly take power away from them unless she wants them to depose her.
SOVL
I’m bringing Communism to the Exarchate. Then I will instigate global permanent revolution, as Trotsky and Mao intended.
>>96617519
>>96617526
>>96617375The only republic in the setting happened on Tsoshu without any Outsider Intervention worth mentioning in the timeline. The current movement in the Empire also has no Outsider backing.
>>96617536
>>96617542
>>96617483I guess that´s true, might drop solipsism and spend time looking for it instead, that i can afford. Inga notes is too important tho.>>96617467Not posted it yet, nothing special really but a mix of god rapper and uruk necromancer albeit i had the idea for my build before they posted theirs
>>96617550
>>96617491Yes but the Exarchate is already centralized it's not a feudal state Before the Empire it was the most advanced state on Doria and it still had gun powder armies dragoons, cannons, mortars, etc.
>>96617554You can always take Dobrava to have her scoop up the notes and manipulate political situations.
>>96617506As opposed to medieval nations where the local lords had CIVIC AND MILITARY POWER. A Roman coup is better for the state of Rome because the nation will still be in one piece afterwards with medieval feudalism if the rebel noble is not crushed then he just is de facto independent. It's better for a country to have it's dynasty overthrown instead of regional governors leaving the country whenever they feel like it.
>>96617521I hope you picked comrade Thaumiel as your adoptive mother/mentor with Dis as starting location.That's the only state which is not monarchist or religious in nature.
>>96617571Dwarves thoughbeit
>>96617583Dei is still in charge. And she considers herself running regency until Xian is back in one form or the other.Her hands of approach to the organization of civilian government in Stygia is just her personal preference.
>>96617571I toyed around with this idea and in unironically like Mada as mom for this. Feed her communist ideology from Earth and you probably tie the ideas of communist revolution and redeeming 0^0 together in her head. Then you co-opt the apostate Whites into your revolutionary vanguard. Opoia's like halfway to commie already.
>>96617706I thought that Opia's character sheet said she was a nice person why would she join obviously evil assholes like commies and Charlie's people?
>>96617747She's a true believer. 0^0's rhetoric about tearing down the wicked gods and empowering the people appeals to her sense of justice.
>>96617747Charlie is the ultimate capitalist bourgeoisie scum. The Ecumene is near post-scarcity yet normies are debt trapped and forced to wage slave for life, with the only out being military service. Imagine having to work 12 hours a day to pay for food that can be infinitely magicked into existence
>>96617772But everyone knows about Charlie's elf genocide. And the Exarchate knows that there are good elves Caeda of the Doria is famously non corrupt and just member of the purple council.
>>96617519I still remember tok's zero charisma seducer build for this
>>96617788> archdemon of lust> 0 charm> kidnapping gunfags> 0 body
>>96617782Sometimes sacrifices must be made in the name of justice.
>>96617519Body is trash compared to the other stats
>>96617782The elves struck first. It was a defensive nuke.
>>96617812Wasn't she genociding them for years before they retaliated?
>>96617812>>96617817Also even if we say the nuke was justified because of war. The hunting down Elven survivors afterwards was not.
>>96617820Not just survivors, she wants to kill elves from Tsoshu or Doria who weren't involved with the plot on Orthrung in the first place.
>>96617835>wants toAnd she successfully exterminated the only elf subspecies entirely native to Tsoshu.
>>96617842Who had really cute ears, too.
>>96617817Sort of -- she was conquering Toshu and genociding the Yaksha there. The Orthrung elves joined the war at Katya'ss urging, though.
Is there a SINGLE earthborn Son that can defeat him in mutual arena combat? Assuming the Son has been ascended for a decade, the Son's gifts are on their respawn timer, and Guts both has the berserker armor and is aware of the Son's abilities and/or blessing. The arena is a small pocket dimension consisting of nothing outside of a concrete floor, a dim sun, and an oxygen-rich, earthlike atmosphere. For context, some True Goddess arranged the fight via trickery and the winner gets a wish.
>>96617870Sure, I hit him hard on the head.
>>96617870I do him like donovan, no homo
>>96617930Attack him from behind at first only to die later?
I'm working on my power system and I have an idea to keep things separated in levels of power to make it easier to decipe the cost of powers.The idea is to have them separated in>terrestrialHere we would have something akin to street level superpowers.>celestialHere is the level of demigods and the upper limit for most talented people at this level you can easily fight armies on your own or equivalent hack abilities like mind control with some limits.>empyreanI'm not sure how high I should go in terms of power I don't really want planet busting stuff but you are supposed to be god like at this point with awesome hacks maybe in the previous level you had limited self-ressurection but here you can ressurect others, etc.
>>96617970That sounds sensible
>>96617970why would I pick anything but empyrean powers
>>96617970Sounds nice. For Empyrean powers, what's the maximum scale you want? Because it's possible for something to be very powerful or even very destructive while still being small scale.
>>96617970Oh hey it's Exalted.
>>96617970Empyrean should be akin to extinction level events. They can exterminate life on a mass scale but they can't destroy the planet itself. Their destructive power is restricted by the existence of other Empyrean.
>>96617990By the mythological titles, they might be locked behind extensive training or kills-needed to evolve them from weaker powers.
>>96617990At the moment the powers are divided by in both levels and by categories it works like >>96618018 say you want super strenght and speed at empyrean first you have to buy access to empyrean levels in the category of powers that enhance you body(That will have in itself intrincic passive benefits)Then you can buy strenght and speed at empyrean.Points are meant to represent both talent and efort put into trainning.
>>96617992As a scale maybe something mythical like lifting a mountain?And yeah more powerful localized effects could be put here like heart breaking adictive beauty or such.
>>96617995yes that's one of my inspirations>>96618016That's too much imo it's practically planet busting
>>96618082>>96617992Do recall that throwing a mountain on top of Typhon was meant to be one of Zeus's most impressive feats.
>>96617334You also trying to unify the Savmat Sarmat lines? I figure there could be a non-bloody way to end the Purple-Yellow conflict.>>96617844She deserves to die, just for this alone.
>>96616127Where is Rake anyway?
>>96618092>That's too much imo it's practically planet bustingIn what world is a volcanic eruption or tsunami "planet busting"?
>>96618119It looks like he's trawling 40k lore, DC comic, and anime woman subreddits. Good for him, he's earned a break.
>>96618095Zeus's biggest feat is actually threatening to wrap the earth with a golden cable and throw into the sun.
>>96618144>>I don't want an ability that destroys the planet [because it kills everything]>Just have a mass extinction event [that kills everything]
>>96618152>threateningHyperbole merchant, Zeus is a big fish in a small pond.
>>96618174Hey Zeus may be a giant cheating manwhore with a bestiality fetish but he's a man of his word. Oathkeeping is literally one of his domains.
>>96618149Why are you stalking Rake?
>>96618144That does sound more reasonable those are still localised events your previous post made it sound like you could do something like burn a good chunk of the world.>>96618095Yes that's the vibe I want you being able to throw hands with titans.Like oh a dragon akin to a storm is destorying everythin in it's path but you who stole a bit of sun fire forge it into a sword of light and use it to not only defend from the thunder the dragon breaths but to slay it and claim it's blood to dip a newly forget crown into giving you the power to comand lighting while wearing it.
>>96618192I didn't say he wasn't a huge fish.>>96618197I need to make sure he's doing his duty to hold the leaf menace at bay.
>>96618164Anon, earth has experienced 5 major extinction event and life persisted throughout all of them. Humans even lived through one. You seem to overestimate what extinction event intails. An extinction event can be something as simple as an ash cloud covering the sun or the ice caps melting, these two feats are something most high fantasy wizards can do easily.
>>96618199In reality a super massive volcano eruption could threaten almost all species on earth because of the environmental shift it would cause. Just make it so in your world things like that aren't a concern.They would be able to cause massive earthquakes that would split continents, drown entire nations in tidal waves, designate a large are into having eternal day/night, give people divine gifts like becoming prophets, etc.
>>96618199>Like oh a dragon akin to a storm is destorying everythin in it's path but you who stole a bit of sun fire forge it into a sword of light and use it to not only defend from the thunder the dragon breaths but to slay it and claim it's blood to dip a newly forget crown into giving you the power to comand lighting while wearing it.So its reality warping with a surrealist mythological coat? I like it. Can't wait to battle the literal embodiment of drought in the shape of a serpent only for it to turn into a life-giving river after I slay it.
>>96616327I made a tierlist for races once, back during v1.1. Not a proper image macro, just a post about my preferences, but there's a rock-solid balance between them. I agree on Plantoids, although most anons dislike them for their slowness and fire/cold vulnerability, effectively free upkeep is worth is more than enough to compensate on its own even without the blunt/pierce resistance. Throwing Adaptability on top of that makes them extremely strong, if you can get them proper support. Elementals and Slimes are strong, versatile, and cost-effective, but I'm hesitant to take them as it's tricky to keep the former thematic without sacrificing its variety and the latter leans hard into either a mad wizardry or sewage, plague of filth aesthetic. Racist PvZesque Plantoids sound hilarious and pretty powerful with the right units. Which is your least favourite race? For me, it's the Fallen Angels. Not because I dislike their aesthetic but the lack of basic units is a dealbreaker for me.
>>96618433>Which is your least favourite race? Aberrants, twice the essence just for magic resistance is not worth it at all. I also hate the mindflayer tentacle aesthetic.
>>96618232As of right now the world does have certain spiritual boundaries that separate places ruled by separate divinities like one could have a haunted forest covered in eternal near darkness and before you notice the forest is full of life and the sun shines. >>96618235Yeah that's what I want you are going to fight beings with conceptual powers with your own.
>>96618498I agree, on both points. Magic resistance is strong, sure, but is it stronger than having double the amount of units? Two behemoths are greater than one. I notice there's some synergy between Honor Guard and the Siegebreaker unit. While you can't make Behemoths part of your Honor Guard (I reason because that near divine magnitude power is too much to keep loyal without a ton of experience you don't have at the start), there's no such restriction with Siegebreakers. If they were well-supported, I don't see any reason it wouldn't be possible to have a mob of Behemoth-tier moving castles. Stacking Horde Mode on top of that verges into something terrifying. I feel like a vanguard of +20 buffed Siegebreakers could fell a holy dragon if they were managed well. Especially if they're one of the races that lends itself to attrition warfare, probably giants or elementals would be best for it, but vault automatons could be dangerous. Which of the generics do you like the most? Beastmen are mine because I've played too much Total War: Warhammer, but Goblinoids are a close second for their cost-efficiency.

>>96618785Seethe harder prude
I've been thinking about this power system.So you basically get to pick only 1 power, but there are tons of sub-system power choices that you use to get stronger and use. There is an option to have up to 3 main powers, but it is a drawback.
I'm building a new statue of liberty in the New New York lakeit's gonna be a warmachina (like the original)
>>96618965That's cool. I'm spawning demons and blood sacrificing them to empower me to spawn more demons to blood sacrifice in an perpetual motion machine of death that ends only with the blood sacrifice of a living god at my altar. Just like in America.
>>96618908Nobody is a prude. You're just a disgusting faggot.
>>96617410>>96617429It sure is funny how everyone wants build reviews but everyone seems to hate the review their build gotEven that guy handing out A tiers like nothing gets attacked for rating people too low
>>96619356I don't care either way because I know anons won't be able to truly understand my vision.
>>96619356If the reviews are bad, it is only natural that such a matter is called out.
>>96619441And could you point to better reviews?How infact, can a review be bad? It might be illogical, sure, but it brings discussion, how can a review be morally evil?

Haven't been here since May. What the fuck happened? Did mcyoag breach containment?
>>96619695The last 10,000 or so posts have been around 80% about the OR update, which doubled the length of the cyoa not including the extra pages.
>>96619695>>96619714Rake also had a big cyoa, Luminary. Magical girl meets cyberpunk meets Cthulhu.
>>96619739CC came out on May 30th, so >>96619695 probably hasn't seen it.https://imgchest.com/p/qe4g5vmdb7jSci-fi cultivation, quite fun.
>>96618104>You also trying to unify the Savmat Sarmat lines? I figure there could be a non-bloody way to end the Purple-Yellow conflict.Nah, my idea was to gather the 'descendants' (either direct or spiritually) of every outsider and forming a party. I would act from the shadows to put them in the path of villains, forging them into the heroes this world needs.But I can't find a fitting candidate for Sarmat.
>>96619773>cultivationslopzzzj
>>96619780>I would act from the shadows to put them in the path of villains, forging them into the heroes this world needs.That sounds pretty Sarmat-y. Just be a Sarmat descendant yourself by either taking Marsaget or Senamortis as your parent or larp as Sarmat via Ielziaseh's magic.
>>96619790It's post-apocalyptic and vaguely american instead of medieval stasis and aggressively chinese, THOUGH.
>>96619780>But I can't find a fitting candidate for Sarmat.That would be Caeda of the Doria.>Ruler in the Exarchate.>Likes edgy stories.>Has special powers from SRTR.>Is a superhero.
>>96619802But I'm the 11th. And I'd rather not have overlap. I already created a twin brother to be raised by One, so that he can be the descendant of the first instead of me.Ielziaseh is an interesting option though, maybe I can cook something...
>>96618722True, but I don't think magic resistance alone is enough to carry the conquest of the Wizardlords. On one hand, it'll make it massively easier and lower most casualties, and on the other hand, any archmage worth his saltpeter is a genius and bound to have redundant mundane and esoteric defenses magic resistance might not help against. Like a falling stone trap, complex portal grids, radioactive slimes, and more. Another issue is that the Far North is likely the lowest quality land for Dark Essence gain, albeit partly offset by the ease of summoning Aberrants, but you'll need a clever strategy to defeat them, and what works for one Wizardlord isn't likely to work for another Wizardlord.That takes a lot of time and is tedious, also risky if you try to slay the Wizardlords yourself or lead from the front, but most Overlords like that would've chosen to start much farther south. They're all centuries-old geniuses obsessed with wildly different magic disciplines. If you want to loot their spell lore, (canon) used goods, and weird collections of shit, you'll have your work cut out for you. There's the lingering undead too but they're barely a factor if you aren't a Necromancer or maybe a Dominator. The biggest advantage with the Aberrants is that their magic protects them from battle spells and enchantments, which your enemies are bound to rely on in lieu of the suppressed tech. However, holy magic likely works on them as dangerously as it does normal, considering that the Hierophant has access to summoning them, which against your deadliest enemies makes them functionally like any other race if it were twice the price, bald, and riddled with tentacles.
