Congratulations anon! You have been given the chance to reincarnate, just like your isekai animays!Your choices are the Imperium from WH40k, and the Gu World from Reverend Insanity. In the former case, you will be born as a human on a backwater world in the imperium. It will be relatively peaceful (for the verse), meaning you won't get nuked by xenos, but that's all.In the latter case, you will be born as a random mortal with C grade talent in a no-name clan in the southern border. There are no guarantees beyond this.
>>96758180I have a really bad intrusive thoughts problem and would probably accidentally summon Tzeentch just by living for long enough in 40K.
>>96758180>Imperium from WH40kPeople said it was grimderp. Not interesting.>Gu World from Reverend InsanityPeople said it was a cultivation manwha. Not interesting.
>>96756243>>96756250This isn’t accurate at all……..
>>96758180Do i get to have sex with a sister of battle and have healthy babies with her and we will live happily ever after? If so then yes.Captcha: YAS2XYCaptcha agrees with me
>>96758180Reverend Insanity, although I'm no Fang Yuan my meta knowledge would still give a leg up in the world of gu. 40k is just too large scale for my knowledge of the setting to matter, and I'd probably get bolted to the back of the head by the inquisition if I show too much suspicious behavior.

I'm ignoring the option to select an extra one because it strongly encourages fleeting shadow + wizard + inventor.

Revolutionary, 9th Gen Sire>The Awakening Not of this world >Clan Kiasyd >Allegiance Independent >Unnatural Embrace Sanguine Resistance Ideal VesselWhispers of the AgesYes I am a Kiasyd not a fae. I just wear contact lenses and applied some skin makeup. I may be a walking corpse but that doesn’t mean I can’t be a pretty corpse.Even before my unlife I was already a Cheery Librarian who often struck conversations with guests. Little did I know that the eccentric regular I often chatted with turned out to be a vampire. My Sire, the Sleepy Wastrel, spent the two centuries of her unlife doing nothing but sleeping and reading as per the noble traditions of Clan Kiasyd. One day, she stumbled upon memories of that ever distant city Golconda that she couldn’t understand. Driven to fits over a memory she could vividly recall in all senses and analyse thoroughly yet fail to understand, she decided to raise a Childe in the hopes they would be able to understand this vision of Golconda. Hence my untimely death and undeath. >A Cursed BeingThe Sun - t2Fire - t2Cold Iron - BaneDeathly - t1Empathy – t1You’d think reaching Golconda would make one immune to the sun or fire but all I got was a mere reduction of my curses.

All the wise books she reads seems to go in and out of her mind without any effect. Even my complete testimony on Golconda meant nothing to her. She’s as stubborn as Caine - she just wants to sleep and read books.

It's just not gonna happen.It would take a huge organized effort to end the masquerade.
>>96758870>tok>kinoHa! yeah right!
Why don't the vamps have massive underground cities? They probably have the money and resources for it. And they could keep entire generations of people as blood bags. Living amongst human society is like walking in eggshells. A bit too risky imo.
>>96759410
Pdf cyoas are like forbidden grimoires now
>>96759410who the fuck wants to live in some damp cave
Is it better to be a vampire in owod or nwod. Which is more powerful? Or more comfy? Survivable? What about mage?
>>96759449Nosferatu do.
>>96759410This is why the WoD never worked. There are WAY too many supernaturals. The system works better as a toolset, to make your own world of darkness, not where everything co exists. That’s stupid. The amount of logistics to reinforce an era of sheer ignorance like that would be totally absurd. On our end anyway.
>>96759472As stated by the author. Other supernaturals do not necessarily exist.
Mage is absolutely canon to Vampire, as the Tremere descend from “human wizards”.
>>96759472I think having werewolves is not that bad. But mages are weird because they are literally incentivized to manipulate the collective unconscious of humanity towards their benefits. So don't understand why they don't just break the masquerade and make magic real for everybody.
>>96759456Vampires reach god level in Old. Vampires in New are rather weak. Mages in both Old and New can reach god level. But don’t take my word for it. I’m just a power level faggot.
>>96759508There's no specification to what kind of wizards though.
>>96759508Could just be sorcery and not actual magic, no?
>>96759509because mage is a shitfuck garbage setting
>>96759449Underground cities aren't damp anon.They are highly controlled environments.
>>96759523Sorcery isn’t magic? Retard. “True” magic is just a way of saying “my magic is better than YOUR magic”. Fuck Mages.
There any pokemon stuff?
>wahh wahhhhh I want to hoard my abilities and magic so I can be le ebin and speshul!!!techchads will deal with these supernaturals inshallah
>>96759530It’s actually the coolest setting by far. It’s just very, very potent. Almost too potent. It can be abused very easily. It’s arguably the hardest gameline to run properly.
>>96759562Pokemon is for children.
>>96759550Sorcery isn't Magic the same way vampire blood fuckery isn't magic, retard. Magic in this setting means a very specific thing, more akin to reality warping than anything else.
>>96759582It’s all magic, retard. I’ve played these games you cunt. There’s dozens of types of magic in WoD. “True” magic, or Magick, is just the most powerful. Magic has never NOT been a game of punking, or magicians one upping each other. God I fucking hate you. You know nothing of the occult.
>>96759582To technocrats magic isn’t magic it’s just science/technology. True magic is as much about subjective perceptions as it is about being the best wizard around.
>>96759582Thaumaturgy warps reality it’s just not as effective as other reality warpers like mages or celestials.
>>96759472>>96759509>But mages are weird because they are literally incentivized to manipulate the collective unconscious of humanity towards their benefits. So don't understand why they don't just break the masquerade and make magic real for everybody.The Technocracy literally does just that, that's how they become so powerful that even all Traditions combined can't stand a candle to them.
>>96759596So you know what I'm talking about but are deliberately acting like a retarded faggot. Good to know.>>96759602I'm fairly certain the technocrats know they are doing some weird fuckery with the fabric of reality. They use technology as a way explaining away and introducing their shit into human society. Mostly because of the consensus.
>>96759562Yes lots, most from reddit. Apotheosis and New Observer made one too.
>>96759638Its matterjeet don't get baited.
>>96759638>I'm fairly certain the technocrats know they are doing some weird fuckery with the fabric of realityYes, but to them it’s just mad science, or the genius effect. They know magic and science are one and the same, they just look at it differently. It’s the same irl, and modern day science is essentially the descendant of past magical thought. The “magic” of the traditions is just opposing, woo woo shaped science to them. It’s a war over science, to them. Science is all about reality. Kind of like how a physicist today would get angry at you for pointing out gravity is still basically magic to us. The setting of WoD is just a lot malleable.
>>96759632The Union is powerful because it can actually work together like the Tremere. This is why when the Union and the Tremere fight mages they usually have a good chance, since traditionalist wizards can barely work together.
magic counters martialstech counters magicsimpul as
>>96759662I agree with you, I'm just not sure how that's relevant to the point I was making. Just because they call it by a different name doesn't mean it's not magic. The principles are the same, they just approach it differently.
>>96759410They do, but it's super secret society everyone hated only. Anyway, last time vampires had their own city, it all degenerated to backstabbing and murder and fell apart. The issue is that the curse of Caine makes everyone into an asshole.
>>96759684>magic counters martialsA martial’s fist is kinetic the way a mage’s force slap is kinetic. It’s just a matter of distance. >tech counters magicMagic counters magic? Correct. People would go to magicians and witch-doctors to defend against magic and witches.
>>96759690>Just because they call it by a different name doesn't mean it's not magicI’m saying it’s like this in real life. Science is indistinguishable from stereotypical wizardry. It’s just shaped differently. They use different words. But the essence is still the same.
>>96759707>matterjeetIron is anathema to fairies because technology and progress are diametrically opposed to magic.
>>96759684So martials counter techjeets? makes sense .
>>96759717Nobody was talking about real life, faggot.
>>96759684>Martials are slaves to the laws of physics>Techshitters are slaves to the laws of physics>Casters don't give a flying fuck about any laws of physics, and actively make a mockery out of themCasters>All
>>96759732Fairies are only weak to cold forged iron, which is most technologically primitive way to forge iron.
>>96759732Funny you say that. Because one of the reasons Changeling players hate Mage players is because Changeling *explicitly* says cold iron cannot be made or worked by magic. But then Mage came out with a book that said - “well, no, sorry faeries, it is actually very possible for a wizard to do this, fuck you” - and it caused a lot of bad apples.
>>96759748Casters still technically obey the laws of physics, they’re just on another tier that it appears to be disobeying the laws of physics. The way modern day technology would radically defy the limits of antiquity.
>>96759744martials job to tech even harder than mages do
>>96759732>>96759755Faries aren't weak to iron idiot, their weakness is human dick, pic realted
>>96759772I don't think oWoD Changeling players hate anyone, because they don't exist.
>>96759732>technology and progress are diametrically opposed to magic.Ironic when magic could not come into being any other way. Clarke’s Third Law is absolute.
>>96759755The term cold iron is poetic, not literal. Like cold steel.Iron cannot be "cold forged". That's not a thing that exists.
Higher logic really triggers this place huh
>>96759816That's one possible definition, but there are other interpretations that even scholars don't agree on.>There's no such thing as cold forgingIt's when you beat a metal into shape using tools, with no heating. Beating copper into shapes with just a hammer is the most ancient way to do it. Doing so with iron is very hard, but possible.
Go to the wod general It’s really bad
>>96759684gatto counters everything
>>96759869except Authors, then gatto gets mogged.
>>96759840>Doing so with iron is very hard, but possibleNo it's not. You need to anneal the piece, or else it will crack and shatter. As compared to iron, copper is much more ductile and resistant to fractures as a consequence of the structure of its crystal lattice.
>>96759903Then do it slowly, with a very little hammer
>>96759748>Martials are slaves to the laws of physicsMatterjeet propaganda, MartialGODS literally punch physics in the face.
>>96759879author cattle spend months making stuff that I can dismiss as sloppa with a single glance

>>96760082
>>96758562I wish we had more pointless cyoas.I mean cyoas where each section is just "pick X choices", and occasionally some option might give you more options in another section, but without an overarching point system. Even long cyoas can be made to work like this.
>>96760525You just described almost all of Beri's cyoas. There are a lot of cyoas like that, most are older but I have seen a few new ones that work that way too.
>>96758562I made a build, but I used the old curse rules because they are objectively better so I will not post it.
>>96760525You know what, I will take upon this challenge of yours. My next CYOA shall feature no point system at all.>>96758919That's the neat part. They don't.>>96760112Before the 21st of this month.
>>96758090People really need to put more thought or specificity into the kind of drawback possessed by the Champion Knight here. You lose all benefits if you allow an innocent to be harmed by not acting to save them - as written, it is 100% impossible to avoid that, because there's a tremendous number of innocent people who could POTENTIALLY be saved if you head in their direction right now, if you know about them, if you choose not to sleep, and what have you, great numbers of which are effectively mutually exclusive. Theoretically unlimited obligations like that need to be massively constrained to be sensible.
>>96758180Being a nobody on a world with no opportunities vs being a cultivator? Art thou shitting me?
>>96760525Pointless is bad because it means each section’s options ought to be equal, which we all know never happens, never even close.>have better options cost more picksThat’s points.
>>96760910Being a no name fodder C tier aptitude with no protections or cheats is extremely dangerous. You can get absolutely fucked up without even being able to do anything about it. Even if you have meta knowledge, it basically can't help you at the early stages. Resources are everything in the Gu world, and you have none. You'll have to become a demonic cultivator and struggle hard just to advance a little. Even if you manage to cultivate to a high tier against all odds, you can still get instantly rekt.The imperium is shitty, but it's a stable shitty. Unless you deliberately choose to seek more, you aren't in nearly as much danger, beyond the mundane hazards of life in the 40k universe.Although, perhaps C tier was too generous. I was originally going to have the option be being a mortal with no aptitude, but that seemed harsh. Likewise, taking away the opportunity to awaken was too punishing. Even D tier aptitude is a little much. Maybe I should have added some other restriction.
>>96761064>you aren't in nearly as much danger, beyond the mundane hazards of life in the 40k universeAnon 90% of the Imperium lives on hiveworlds that are meme levels of intense human misery and suffering. You can make the argument that maybe you're less likely to get killed outright, but you're going to eat corpse starch, breathe smog, do backbreaking labor with no free time or sleep, and die young as your body gives out.
>>96758567I make up my mind about the objective to build for and currently writing the build down, it should be done for this thread.
>>96761033Wat
>>96761064You're exaggerating the harshness of Gu world, you can absolutely just plop down into some nameless village and rule as its king for the rest of your life with no problem. Maybe even start you're own clan if you get lucky. The dangers you talk about are only if you actively put yourself in danger to seek immortality like Fang Yuan. Nobody gives a shit about a nobody C-tier cultivator, the worst that could happen to you is if you come across a demonic cultivator.

>>96761080Many imperium citizens live on hive worlds, but most worlds are not hive worlds. The imperium controls over a million planets, but only 32,380 of them are hive worlds. A backwater planet of lesser importance would probably an agri-world or a frontier world or some generic feudal world or some such. Probably just a standard civilized world. Worse than Earth, yes, but not by a lot. Not far from the conditions that thirdies live in today.>>96761114You could rule some no name mortal village in the wilderness, yes. But the stone age living conditions and harsh natural conditions are worse than the imperium. What kind of "king" are you planning on being? And how are you going to avoid getting wiped the fuck out by the most low tier threats there are? You'd have a better time just sticking to a clan.>the worst that could happen to you is if you come across a demonic cultivator.The worst that could happen is your soul getting tortured for eternity. Dying quickly by a beast or natural disaster or some other cultivator is a mercy compared to the worst things that can happen to you in such a situation. Even getting dying by the millions for some refinement recipe isn't that bad as long as your soul is destroyed without too much trouble.But the point of the choice was >moderate shittiness with little to no hope, but guaranteed safetyvs. >moderate shittiness with a very slim chance of extreme upside and extreme downside
>>96761208The Manipulator is the only one that seems work taking. 100 pound limit is jack shit, but turning it into MPH is great. A 1 pound projectile moving at 99 MPH is not bad, and a 10 pound projectile moving at 90 MPH is even better. The secondary ability is also incredible and completely negates The Anarchist if the other Morph suits exist and are given to other people.Wrecking Ball is cool and all but 60 MPH is really slow for a max speed. Not needing air and immunity to pressure is neat and the real benefit is complete physical protection while flying, but unless it grants you like infinite inertia to crush the opposing item I don't know how it's actually going to destroy the other item and not just maybe bounce you off and leave a dent. Maybe if you were cannonballing into a small car sure but still pretty eh.

>>96759410>Why don't the vamps have massive underground cities?Clan Cappadocius/Giovanni experimented with the idea, but it never caught on. In my opinion, there are two reasons why:1. The fastest way for a Cainite (WoD vampire) to get power is to cannibalize their elders. Conversely, the really old ones need stronger blood than humans can provide, and have been known to cannibalize the youngsters. So putting some space between you and other vampires make sense.2. Camarilla (and most non-Sabbat) vampires maintain their sanity by playing at being human. Nerdy vampires like the Cappadocians/Giovanni can move their human interests underground (who wants to play D&D for the next century?), but most need a more "conventional" lifestyle. Living in a vast underground human farm would have... "unpleasant" psychological consequences for the vast majority.So it's a mix of hating their neighbors and needing to touch grass once in a while.
>>96761578We're probably 20 regulars, if we exclude the lurkers.But also they're all me. You're the only real human in this general apart from me, thus this whole thread is my very obtuse way of flirting.

>>96761596>Nerdy vampires like the Cappadocians/Giovanni can move their human interests undergroundGiovanni at least DEEPLY integrate their mortal families into their lives and business anyway, and that combined with their incest obsession means they don't really need outsiders. You have your Ghoul sister/lover (you'll probably Embrace her soon,) your completely human cousin, and his entire extended family to all hang out with to maintain the facade that you're still a person and not a beast.
>>96761658That's not your choice to make.
>>96761658A lot of these should be locked up even individually.
>>96759772>Because one of the reasons Changeling players hate Mage players is because Changeling *explicitly* says cold iron cannot be made or worked by magic. But then Mage came out with a book that said - “well, no, sorry faeries, it is actually very possible for a wizard to do this, fuck you” - and it caused a lot of bad apples.Why would that be an issue? OWoD mages and changelings have very types of magic. Cold iron is literally a solid form of anti-faerie magic, so it makes sense that changelings wouldn't be able to enchant it.However oWoD mages can do anything their beliefs say they can do. There's an entire faction of technomages who build not!Terminators and cyborgs, and White Wolf added them to the setting before Changeling came out.
>>96761534Yes, that's not one of them, it was never good.
>>96761693Atleast one of the people there is a sex offender that could actually literally be locked up if we only knew where they lived

>>96761703Sex offenders produce some of the best art, CYOAs included. At least let them justify the expense of locking them up before we do it.

>>96761725I am avoiding mentioning the attention whore because he is an attention whore with literally nothing better to doI would destroy him if he jumped from under my bed, as I am 6'4 and he is dying of aids

>>96760607I know there's a lot, but yeah I'd like to see it more in the OC we get these days.At the time Black Cat released, I had grown jaded and negativistic and rarely enjoyed cyoas anymore, but despite that, Black Cat felt very easy/attractive to play. I think the pointless design was part of it.>>96760739Gambare!>>96760929If you go for very simplistic options (1 kg of lead vs 1 kg of gold), then they wouldn't be balanced. But you can fiddle with the options till they match, that's what authoring is all about.A classic choice: you're stuck in a dangerous scenario with either a sword or a gun. To balance them, the gun gets only a small amount of ammo. Keep fiddling with the amount of ammo until the sword and gun feel balanced to you.Or perhaps you pick between factions you join, and one is clearly stronger. Then, in the jobber faction you can expect to rise to the top quickly for lack of competition, while in the stronger faction you'd be ordered around.
>>96761685The original clan (Clan Cappadocius/the Cappadocians) were a bunch of Goths, emos, and chunni scholars, all united by a shared fascination with death. To that end, they brought over the Giovanni family of necromancers to further their research, and most were so buried in their own studies, they barely noticed when the Giovanni staged a coup and renamed the clan.

>>96761833Tis OC???
Cyoas with this feel?
>>96761775I never saw this one before, it looks really cool. I don't really have a preference for points vs options, I usually dislike Beri's design choice of not having drawbacks but I don't mind the "pick 3" or similar cyoas, I also like most Beri cyoas regardless. As the other guy pointed out balance is a bit of a problem, but honestly I don't care, I firmly believe that you can't really determine the value of some options and balance is not really that necessary in cyoas. To use your example, no matter how many bullets it has some people will never choose the gun while others would treat a rusted and makeshift one like a sacred relic.

At first, it's your pseudo-/trash/ Waifu Slave Picker which isn't that much of an offense, but then it hits you with that conspiracy hook near the end and you're left sitting there like "What the fuck?" That's arguably more interesting than the premise than you just leave it at that? And it reminds me of THAT Drawback from Dream of Genie souring everything else.

>>96761959>the Domains are kinda lame tho.Reminds me of JRPG Traitor where the big three deities are Life, Time, and Death while the other gods below them are extremely specific, like Mountain Sky or Clear Voice. I wonder what you can do with those.

Rank the CYOA Formats:>Text PDFs>Image CYOAs>Interactives
>>96761995Image>>Text>>InteractivesHow many people here have actually played cyoa books?
>>96761972Its not even a specifity problem, its just a creativity problem. I can think of plenty of cool small time domains like a particular martial art, stage magic, comedy, garbage (as in the power to make crazy DYI inventions from stuff you find in the dumpster), etc...
>>96761995>1. Image CYOAs>2. Text PDFs>3. Interactives (in their most common/current form)
Can someone check if AllSync is down for them and let me know? it just stopped loading on my end.
>>96761973They can stop vampires without intentionally trying to make the greyest, most static, and miserable world they can. The current Technocracy is way beyond their original goal of trying to make the world safe for sleepers while still allowing and guiding ascension, slowly leading to a utopia. They want shit locked down so they can maintain absolute power and control and some even want to kill the human spirit entirely.
>>96762026
>>96761995Image will always the best format just for its sheer accessibility and number content made in it. Text pdfs are next, there are alot of awesome cyoas in that format. Interactives are dead last, I can count on one hand how many "good" interactive cyoas I've seen, the medium seems to encourage laziness and low effort content.

>>96761497He doesn’t actually start at level five you enormous fucking fag. Like >>96761508 said you can do what a level 2 Welf does by creating a sword that casts level 6 tier spell effects without cast times (because spells capable of one shotting people can take fucking forever otherwise).
>>96762118Male Childe use Obfuscate and Animalism to get more Discipline with an Affinity by drinking the blood of high gen vampire from various clan (and anything and everything else that have blood that won't make me sick), either by hunting the vampire and drink during their daysleep or by having animal collect spilled blood from vampire on vampire violence.
>>96762099>I was impressed at that one anon's excel sheet project, though I don't remember where the link for it is.I think remember that, it was too fetish-heavy for my liking though. I prefer the horror, survival and mystery aspects much more.
>>96761852why do people ruin nice images with bad edits that don't even change the point
>>96762501Because they wanted to meme about exotic toadline bullies specifically presumably.
>>96761995I think interactives have the most untapped potential, but as others have said the majority are shit from a butt. They’re most interesting to me when they have hidden paths or points and a more structured plot to play through, but very few take advantage of the benefits that the format offers. Being able to click on things doesn’t negate the need for interesting options, and certainly not the need to follow the rules of English and graphic design.Images and text are both solid, though I wish more PDFs had stylish formatting.>>96762026It was down for me, too. Seems like it’s back up.
Wasn't there a fetish list for the companions in stardust or am I remembering a different cyoa?
>>96762514>when they have hidden paths or pointsThat shit is what I hate most about them. I want to make my build from a position of being informed of ALL my options, not this bullshit where I get fucked over.
>>96762517There was indeed a waifu DLC.
>>96762517Yes.
>>96762530based thanks
>>96762530holy based author
>>96762511
>>96762514I fucking hate hidden options and paths, especially because they’re almost always gimmicky and unfriendly in terms of UI
>>96762514Interactives are currently just cyoa calculators, which is useless as you still need to do the calculations in theorycrafting and I actually kind of like itAt best they could go on to become shitty videogames or extremely high effort visual cyoas (Which might actually make sense if ai learns to code, but as of right now is useless)
>>96762543Still waiting for them to make snakeline bullies.
>>96762563
>>96762514Interactives have an entire different culture. I hate it so much. Kitchen sink mentality is a big part of it, it reminds me of aspiring video game modders who are still school aged. More is better, no internal coherence is sought. The crossover options are the extreme end of that.
>>96762585>More is better, no internal coherence is soughtWe have a powerfag infestation, judging them for that would be hypocritical.
>>96762613What does powerfag mean? I think different anons mean different things by that.

>>96762523I always think there should be an option to display or enable them to allow for point-perfect buildcrafting, but I personally enjoy the mystery in gamier or more horror-oriented CYOAs. It's definitely bullshit to get saddled with a stupid drawback, but I think there are legitimate use cases; they're just not as common as some authors seem to think they are.>>96762585I absolutely agree. Maybe it's because they're easier to make & require less forethought?Crossovers will be the death of me. I'm so tired of shit with 8 different power systems built into them, all of which are from middling shonen, with no internal consistency. It's like seeing a kid who just put his first "Hello world" out there decide that he's going to single-handedly make an open-world RPG. Scale it back, please.

>>96762723You only like this one because you need to pay for a penis in the better one.

>>96762723I'm not sure they're comparable?Witch is for bettering your Earth life with new powers.Witch Awakening throw a whole setting at you, being closer in scope to big sized CYOA like OR or Eternal Arms.
>>96762631>>96762656highlander is still working on her next OC too.
>>96762705No.
>>96762760>Witch Awakening throw a whole setting at you,I think that Witch Awakening doesn't have a setting. Neither did the original, but it didn't pretend otherwise. Or did it? The setting was your life. Your normal existence that you've chosen to continue with the addition of magic. It conserved setting by using most of the assumptions of Your normal life, Witch Awakening annihilates both at once and fails to replace them. Is it valid to announce that something isn't the elementary unit of a story that it obviously attempts at? Let's say the same thing about a "character", and imagine why I would disqualify them like that. A character is a person, but a person may not be acting as a character if they are just a complete bystander. That was because this person's characteristics as a sentient being did not add more context and meaning to the story. A location or society may not be a setting if it lacks characteristics that bleed into the interactions between characters within it. This is why I think that it does not have a setting. There is no greater context or design to anything which the player will achieve, all factions are different aesthetics of the same mission to maintain the masquerade to their advantage, without any society or locales binding the agencies and schools. The normal world is filler to keep the reader from recognizing that They're playing in a wasteland, which relates to rule #1 of witchcraft being "don't cause a dynamic between us and the public". This severs all possibility of achieving "comfy", because comfort is a nest of security and belonging within the setting and there is no place within the world to find, or even construct, here. The "Locations" solve nothing, first being single paragraphs apiece inside a bloated power picker, and second reinforcing the feeling of disconnection by very rarely sharing the same spatial continuum or more accurately "level" to really reinforce that feeling of a desolate online game.

There isn't a location section, but the factions themselves show how different the world is from Normal Earth. Things like O.R.C or the Hephastus whatever helps giving relief to the witchdom. The quests are more on the generic side, so you can generally do them regardless of your faction, but they also give a lot of information, like the Encounters from OR.

>>96762877Most of the thread is in the 18-25 range I think. Some 30s, but as outliers/oldfags.
gil told me to chug a bottle of s0i sauce once
Fatposter.... you were too good for us...
>>96762890I am recently 21
>>96762890I've been 25 for a few months.
Anyone remember that one insane fujoshi
>>96762877I am 5+ years old. I have long since mastered walking, and defecate my surroundings only occasionally.
>>96762890Once upon a time we were all like 18-20Where did you fuckin kids even come from
>>96762631Holy Crap! You actually have me on that list? Color me shocked.
Hey guys, aro here.Still working on Ultimate God, mostly been making a lore doc for it.https://pastebin.com/6sTRC1GhIf anyone wants to check it out and review it, here it is so far, still a work in progress tho.
>>96762867I actually talked to her for a while and she was really traumatized by guys, so I honestly think she would've been less man-hating if people didn't go out of their way to antagonize her. Leaving this thread was probably really good for her.

>>96762955Going wild.
>>96762705This is an actually food post. For once.
>>96762907Hm... Some are probably from across 4chan when someone post CYOAs. I've seen it happens mainly on /v/, but some filenames pop up elsewhere too.There is also the Reddit pipeline. You get introduced to CYOA on Reddit (perhaps a big release like Entropist) and soon enough you're checking the source, trying to fit in. So we get newbloods.There is also an overlap between writing prompts and CYOAs on some sites like Pinterest. Another way to find this place.Finally, there is a slim chance Anon just clicked on the fastest general on the dead board. Towergirls, Jumpchain, mcyoag, this thread - at some point you get curious.How did (You) end up here?
>>96762963I needed a Walk Blessed.
>>96762717>>96762782It's also pretty stupid I can't fuse the Chain Whip with a Sword, Staff or Light Blunt when the entire gimmick is that it can collapse into such a form. Maybe I want to specific or customize the kind of sword it turns into? It also can't fuse with Flail because that's a Heavy Hitter, even if that would make total sense. Instead you can only fuse it with shit like a Yo-Yo which is a much bigger strength than all the stuff it CAN'T be fused with.

>>96762963I came here because I wanted to discuss D&D and save cool fantasy art, and then one day I noticed an interesting little thread calling for a CYOA dump. This was before generals were a thing, formally speaking. I checked in and thought these little games were fun, and have stayed ever since.
>>96762963I was here when it all began...we crossed the vast desserts of /b/ to make our home here
>>96762877Couple years from 60 myself but I'm an outlier as far as the standard age goes. Been here on and off since about 8 months or so after 4chan went live
>>96761833>Meme CYOAdropped
>>96762963I was trying to find a traditional CYOA book on Pinterest, believing I'd recognize the front cover. Then I found Nemesis, which sent me down the cyoa rabbit hole. It was a good if needlessly complicated writing prompt, and I needed to understand why it intruded my search for CYOAs.So technically, I've been tracking Tok.
>>96762963As underaged b& back in 2013 I read wikipedia articles on the hacker 4chan and the scientology protests, thought they were cool and checked 4chan out for fun. I liked the discussion and stayed. Around 2015 I browsed tg out of curiosity, clicked on cyoag because the narrow OP image stuck out like a sore thumb on the catalogue, played some cyoas, liked them, and stuck around ever since.
>>96761995Interactive CYOAs is like VR.It's only dogshit because 99% of good CYOA games are static.And conversions are a straight up downgrade more often than not.
>>96762963I used reddit as a teenager. didn't really like most of itWas browsing strange fetishes out of a fasination with the conceptI saw NSFWcyoa in the auto complete and being that I had no idea what it was, I clicked on itAfter some time I heard about /tg/ having cyoa's in a comment section. Because of what I had heard about 4chan I was nervous about the contents but eventually I tentatively tried it. For a while I would look through the archives deeper and deeper for cyoa'sIt took me about 6 weeks to first postEventually I came around to trying the rest of the websiteI grew out of reddit relatively quickly. about 2 years I think. It is quite sad to think there are people still there as adultsThis all happened about 6 years ago. I left this place for some time in the middle, but now I am backI like anonymity, and I really like not having a mask to maintain. I like the way people here speak and think. I don't like reddit please do not call me a reddit user
>>96763029That's the most reddit thing I've ever read
>>96763029Reddit~
>>96762985And after all that distance travelled, you’re still fat.
>>96763040>>96763046You are such a fucking jackass but I can't stop smiling
>>96762995Wow a real wizard.
>>96763029>>96762968Now I know why this thread is infested with faggots. We have a genuine reddit exodus in our hands.
>>96763061It's been known since Entropist.
>>96763063Not surprising, Entropist was about letting /r/antinatalism and /r/efilism having their cake and eating it at the same time.
>that time an underage gil was sexually harassed by aro Sick bitch
>>96763070The author of Entropist was openly anti-abortion and racist, clearly not reddit material
>>96762915>Aromage>META
>>96763096I think that that is still reddit material
>>96763102So are you just allergic to that word or what?

>>96762915>No Remina-class Hellstar
>>96763096Reddit hates india and china>>96763104Not the word in particular, I don't mind meta cyoas. What I don't like is that it feels like the the whole 'canon' fiasco from homestuck^2
>>96763110I felt like it would be too on the nose.
>>96762915>the GodscriptTell me when you're ready to stop being the /cyoag/ version of China.
>>96762915Aromage how do you plead to the charges of sexual harassment
>>96763125Not Guilty, Gil was already sodomized when I got there.
>>96762905There's been more than one, you'd have to be more specific.
>>96762915Cant wait for the release honestly

>>96762905The one that went ballistic over Urban Unease? God what a saga that was. Probably a false flag, though
>>96763096How can one author be so based?

>>96763193Poor, alone, defenceless Softie… under a bridge… in the rain…
>>96763172Because his simplistic moral viewpoints were at odds with his own nihilistic feelings and fantasies, so he wrote it both ways.

>Funny, when abortions are happening left and right, even when one breaks up with their girlfriend. What about children born after a previous abortion? Their existence depends on the death of a hypothetical earlier sibling’s existence.I think like this too, but I still respect a mother’s decision to keep their child, and that child should thank their mother every day for her choice.
>>96763255>being this much of a newfag
I absorbed my twin sibling in the womb. My entire existence is one born of sibling murder. My karmic debt was fucked from the very beginning.

>>96762963I’ve always considered /tg/ my home board, but I saw this general in the catalog one day, remembered how much I enjoyed choose-your-own-adventure books when I was a kid, and just stuck around. I think I started using 4chan because of the sharethreads and /t/.
Softie is your typical shy boy who panics when you say something mildly lewd
Most anons talk big and fold the MOMENT things gets real
>>96763576What exactly are you talking about?
Can someone post otherwise and mind overwrite meta? I want to make a build
Gil runs away as soon as a woman touches him
>>96763592All cyoas
>>96763600Better to post next thread, no?
>>96763600Sure.
coming to this general out of context is a very bad idea
>>96763620We can repost them if needed. Threads are lasting longer than they used too, so "waiting next thread" is a gamble.

What's the hair + eye color combo you always envision in your builds? Mine's black hair and gray eyes. Not unusual at first glance and still pretty cool without going into "OC donut steel" territory.

>>96763238Ultimate God.Expect the CYOA will be objectively good.
>>96762963I originally came to 4chan seven years ago, after hearing positive statements about /tg/ on youtube. About 3 years after that I found /cyoag/ by clicking on the most active thread and liked it a lot, so I stayed.
>>96763700>Ultimate God.>Expect the CYOA will be objectively good.
>>96763694All applies to me, but I have no interest in chingy chongy flavored stuff.
>>96763756I will be sending you images of that cat in a blender video in the mail, gattofaggato. Stay ready.
>>96763624>>96763646>>96763654Thanks, anon. I appreciate it.Machine/equipPocket ApartmentImaginary Friend 2xRaw PsytiumExotic Painter, Regalia, LegacyInvisible Line, Torrential Abyss, Flickering PointAlien Compound I know you're not supposed to combine cyoas, even if they're meta, but I just wanted a maximized comfy build. This way I can chill with my schizo waifu while passively getting stronger using the trinket combination. I was considering Eerie Beacon in place of Line but that would require me actually fighting monster early game, so I could accumulate abstract matter. Which sounds like a pain. I rather just use Line to improve all my stats and similar stuff, and I think you can use Line on other shit too, including trinkets.Alien Compound is probably the chillest place to spam in. They seem to be the most moral faction and would probably be willing to cooperate, since I could most likely fix their AI or even spawn a new one if absolutely necessary. They also probably have things like games and other types entertainment. That being said I won't interact with them until I'm strong enough to be confident. Godking level would be acceptable. Once I'm strong enough, I intend to use the paint I got from escaping the void dimension to go back and get the other trinkets. Leaving Eerie Beacon behind would be a waste and Violet Window is also extremely useful for an Exotic Painter. I will leave the Brass Gate behind though, I wouldn't want to be bothered so I won't bother my alternate selves.
>>96763694You have all the tools in the palm of your hand.
>>96763789>I know you're not supposed to combine cyoas, even if they're meta, but I just wanted a maximized comfy build.1. Who's going to stop you?2. That's the express goal of metas, to be used an an addenum to something else.
>>96763803The antimetafag stirs...
>>96763803I just didn't want to make an illegal build. I wanted it to be something interesting to debate about and stuff. I honestly think these two cyaos fit each other pretty well, but that's probably because it has the same writer.
>>96762963> How did (You) end up here?Outer Reincarnation update, wondered what anons thought about itThat was... a week, maybe two after the update?
>>96763826>illegal buildrulesanon mindbroke you
>>96763905A game needs rules to properly function. Completely disregarding rules is almost as bad as enforcing them for their own sake. There must be a reason for their creation and/or absence.
>>96763905You'll be sorry when the CYOA police arrest you for all your illegal builds.

>>96763193The discord queen...
>>96764058>play meta>pick all dangers>lock himself out of the bonusesAre you retarded?
>>96764079I like the plot hooks. Now that I think about it, it also follows the "prey with exotic power enter Wanderworld, hunter track him down" narrative.Also, Starwalkers vs CHASE & Animus vs Vigorbeast. C'mon. It writes itself.
>>96761775I don't get if you are supposed to get the rewards at the start or at the end of the first job. Some are implied to be just stuff you will get inevitably if you keep doing a good job, like Hell Nine or the promotion, but what about the rest? Do you get 2 rewards each job? Are they normally more spread out? Is the selection going to be different after the second job? These are kinda important to know.
>>96763700Proof?
>>96763375What's it like being a chimera?
>>96764107You're imagining things past what's written again. Cease or face the CYOA police.
Is it bad if I pick two companions because I think they'd be cute together?
>>96764256don't ntr yourself

>>96764126She's made it progressively worse over time. The proof is she keeps posting wips in the reddicord.
>>96763381Briddy neatHome: Small HouseOutfit: CasualReason: Childhood PassionPowers: True SightArtifacts:-Volcano Cigar-Curse-EaterAllies:-Sophia Eklund-Irene Anserson-Beatrice SowardsCase: Dreams in CarrionBasically looking forward to going going on a creepy investigation with some slice of life thrown in. Sophia and Irene should work well with eachother. Probably trying to one up the other.The Volcano Cigar and True Sight should also play off of each other nicely.Originally I did have Catharil listed as a companion but switched her out for Beatrice because I'm a sucker for anything vaguely related to The King in Yellow. Also it'll be fun to see Sophia try to outdo her in the info gathering department.I would like an extra case but don't want to give up my companions or my fairy house. Thinking about switching from 'Dreams in Carrion' to 'The Reappearance of Sumiko Akiyama' but feel like that would just be playing on easy mode. Legit tho all of the cases sound interesting or fun.
>>96764126The proof is that I want to play it, I liked the previous versions, that's all there is to it.
>>96762963I'm not quite sure how I ended up here, but I remember Dark Zone being the first one I saw here. I made a build and someone enjoyed it, which made me want to stay. I think the first one I actually "played" was the spheres of the aether one.
>>96762890Turned 20 a few months ago
>>96763700It was alright at first but every unnecessary update has made it worse.
>>96762963I've read A Quiet CYOA around 10 years ago somewhere (don't remember where, it was a long time ago), found more similar stuff in here and then decided to make my own CYOA right away.I've been sticking around and making more OC here ever since.
>>96762963I'm also a Pinterest catch, first cyoa I played I think was either Overpowered Isekai or one of them old island cyoas.
I'm so fucking bored, bros. Not even CYOAs can satisfy my constant need for stimulation anymore. Nothing but hard drugs gives me even the slightest, most fleeting pleasure. Not even prostitutes. Work is also hardly stimulating. This constant fucking boredom is driving me up a wall. I might kill myself just to end this lukewarm type of constant torture.Thanks for reading my blog.
>>96765329What hard drugs do you do, harddruganon?
>>96765329Go to the Gym, Read books, Play sports, or volunteer for charity work if you're feeling virtuous.

>>96764116>I don't get if you are supposed to get the rewards at the start or at the end of the first job.At the end. It says after the current job it gives you ability to speak, + the two options you pick.As for rewards for future jobs, it doesn't say.

>>96765357I use cocaine to last longer on my sexcapades. I also occasionally use some kind of meth adjacent drug my dealer has. The meth-like stuff is amazingly good. It makes even the most innane shit seem insteresting. I also feel a overwhelming sense of focus, it's good enough that I enjoy writing and reading under it's influence. I don't really feel fidgety at all. I'm careful with it because I don't want to get addicted, so I just use it twice a week. I've heard adderall is a decent pick for a similar effect, but I think going to a psychologist is for fags and getting that stuff on the side is surprisingly difficult where I live. People here don't use meds like americans do, they straight up just use illicit drugs.>>96765360I used to go to the gym, did for like 4 years but it eventually lost it's shine. I look decent even without that so it doesn't matter much, but I do miss the homies from time to time. I can't hang out with them anymore because they don't drink.
