I honestly didn’t want this many companions, but I grabbed Aurilean for front-line and because I like the gilded plotline. Unfortunately, I will be deleting it so it’s totally pointless to have. I spent a bit of time gaming my weapons and enchantments with Artificer and point-exchanges to afford what I wanted. only to discover the Silverwood Bow is going to be way less useful than I thought. Since I refuse to give up Nightblade or Fleshweaver, I might make my weapons and enchantments more synergy focused with Jester’s Swap and Oathkeeper’s Bond. Dreamwalker seemed cool, but again I don’t like how it would function during the quest.

Skipped the parts of the CYOA I didn’t care about but overall fun. Took anons advice and switched my free martial arts around. Multiple anons recommended Jiu-Jitsu, third one was harder as anons couldn’t agree on one other than Krav Maga sucked. Going with Kung-Fu for third for now. Also switched my build a bit to mess with some synergies I found to game the system. One being that if as a monk my body counts as a “weapon”, I can declare it a legendary one with The Ashen Court bonus to gain a significant durability boost and some other goodies (a curator’s tear could also do this), this made the cultivator class less appealing so I switched up two of my classes to be a bit better. Also going to take some sanctioned quest to further abuse my body counting as a weapon and get chainsaw hands and Mr. Fantastic/ Luffy powers, also the Fleshweaver mask has enormous potential but also is crazy body horror. To be a little more grounded with it I will use it with my Golem servant sometimes. 2/2
>>96937505>Invents tech to help them make tech fasterWhat now?
>>96937405Gimme a superpower cyoa but with a lower power ceiling
>>96937514He can't even make that tech fast enough before they get killed. That is the problem. At the end of the day. Techfag is just a human that needs materials to even start and then, they need to manually build whatever they need. Manually. Even a random burglar could just stab that loser the day they get their powers. That is how weak the techfag is at the start.
>>96936531>>96936826Now that I’ve reevaluated my build, I decided to keep my classes and skill point allotments, but ditched daggers and the bow in favor of the glove and trench shotgun. A symbiote, homing, jester’s swap, shadow-drinking shotgun. I only wish I could slap sanguine bond on that too. Or maybe something to create your own ammo out of magic, DMC style. I could probably go for an extra level of artificer for the extra enhancement slot, but then I’d be tempted to do a symbiote armor and I dislike the armor system enough that I simply don’t wish to tempt myself. I also considered a flesh-weaving, symbiote-bonded glove blade that’s more biological but oh well. Parasites squick me out so let’s keep that shit in check.The main quest just throws you into so many close-range clusterfucks, man.
Techjeets once again on suicide watch.
>>96937546Obsessed.
>>96937534Ten minutes in his kitchen and no burglar on earth can compete.
>>96937546It really is the weakest of them all. But it seems to have been done on purpose. Their limitation being much harsher than the others. Specially considering one of the biggest advantages of tech is mass production.

I hate CYOA.
>>96937588
>>96937505You're more or less required to get the okay from others before you attack anyone so they're bound to have some time to invent.The question is does a fully kitted inventor compare to any of the other supers?
>>96937599It's very true
>>96937610>The question is does a fully kitted inventor compare to any of the other supers?Tech has the most versatility outside of Sorcerer, it's just that instead of having to do big-ass rituals for each spell, they have to upkeep their tech.
>>96937616Sorcerer can just do anything tech can do, but without having the upkeep limitation.
>>96937516This one has a really low power ceiling!
>>96937588Why are you here then? I hate faggots but I don't go into your house just to tell you.
>>96937634Upkeep is going to require less work than completing a ritual every time. An inventor with unlimited time is the strongest super power.

>>96937643>Unspecific settingThat kills it for me.
>>96937652Here is the reason>Inventor makes a battleship>It now needs people to upkeep it manually, per the description of the power>Sorcerer spawns a battleship with a ritual>It doesn't need people to keep runningAt the end of the day, the inventor is literally limited because all of their tech needs manual oversight and they are only allowed to have a small amount of people to do that oversight and maintenance. They will eventually run out of people to upkeep everything. Making their powers the most limited of them all.
>>96937684All an inventor needs to do is create an AI to oversee some subsapient droids to do the work for him. It's not flawless but it isn't too difficult to get around the lack of people.
>>96937684Kinda depends on how broad the sorcerer "no breaking the fundamental rules of your magic" restriction is. I'd imagine it can't make all the same things the inventor can.
>>96937684Not all of the inventors tech needs upkeep, just the reality breaking stuff. Just a regular old mundane battleship, or even one that's at the pinnacle of what normal science can achieve, is going to require upkeep beyond the tinker bullshit they used to create it.
>>96937643That's gotta be the demiurge, God wouldn't create a capeshit setting
>>96936514Yandere CYOA update. I have finished the "how did you meet" part of CYOA and added the option to actually decide how aware the yandere is about your wish, with Calamity and Harmony point costs. I will make skills over the weekend.Development question of the day - what perks besides looks, skills and resources should I add? Giving players extra attribute and skill points is obvious, same with adding option of providing them cash or a love nest. I'm wondering what else can I add as a perk.The secondary question is if I should add "looks selector" section to this yandere builder. Honestly, I prefer more plot related waifu builders like this to have short and vague looks section that leaves exact details to reader's imagination.Link> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yVtHEY2Jg4jvu1NaiX0tgMYG2B_geANNEmR0wFVVJb8/edit?usp=sharing

>>96937741Perhaps the ability to infiltrate anon's dreams?
>>96937741is it rollable?is it your first cyoa?
>>96937777Thanks! The hardest part is containing my power level for less "conventionally" attractive options for the yanderes. As a big fan of the genre, I'm a bit of a fan of yanderes with more extreme aesthetics, including yanderes that aren't cute but still somehow draw you in.
>>96937814That's a good one for supernatural perks, but I was thinking about more mundane/semi mundane options first.>>96937815It's not rollable. And I've made some item picker stuff before. This is first proper narrative project I'm going to actually publish.
>>96937676So you'd like it better if it was default modern earth? Yucky.
>>96937828Hmm.... what if she's good at baking? That's a yandere-adjacent skill. Possibly scheduling as a perk? She's extremely good at setting up efficient calendars of what you should be doing, precise down to the second. Apart from that, driving is important. They're uncommon but I could see a top-tier woman's NASCAR driver being some poor dude's knife-crazed waifu, and driving skill would help with bypassing traffic, criminal getaways, and making sure (You) can't get away.
>>96937911Sure, I'm quite fine with cyoas that offer powers to (You) as you are.But regarding >>96937643: If you are the only one with superpowers, on modern earth, then it's not really a superhero setting. Even the lowest power density in the cyoa is 1 in 1..10 mln (= 8000 to 800 individuals by modern world pop), and in content too it assumes a setting that's about superheroes. So I was comparing it to having a specific and fleshed out superhero setting. Harbinger's setting is fairly barebones, but even that's better than leaving it unspecified or hypercustomizable like that imo.
>>96937938Honestly, these are good. Thanks. Especially the driving and scheduling. I need to figure out skill list today and how much description per skill should go.
>>96937958I fucking love hypercustomizable worlds/settings.
>>96937989No worries, I always like sharing ideas as they come to me. Especially to help with OC. Good luck with your work!
>>96938014I liked sleeper's dream but certainly not for that.For example it's a heavily illustrated cyoa, so all the images you see, you have to mentally pass through a filter: "even though i'm seeing medieval princesses in medieval castles, i should pretend i'm actually seeing east asian princesses in east asian castles."You don't think that's an issue?
>>96938071Thanks!
>>96937818If anon's can't love a non-conventionally attractive waifu, then they have no business wanting one
How does magic work in OR? Why did Tankista say it was low fantasy?
Do you need a map in a cyoa?
>>96938215Need? No.Want? Yes.
>>96938306fantasy worlds will never have this level of map kinothe setting with the greatest lore will always be real life
>>96938324Drawing a map like this, by itself, isn't hard, as long as you don't care what anything on the map represents.
>>96938424
>>96937191Is Dark Age of Piracy by Peil?
>>96938127>How does magic work in OR? Why did Tankista say it was low fantasy?Standard magic works by quoting lines from the world-story, and must be spoken in the language of the God-Script. Overuse of the same lines ruins the impact, however, so spellcasting can't be formalized.
>>96937429>>96937201Considering how much One Piece influenced the Pirate Life cyoa (early versions let you recruit members of the Straw Hat Pirates), do you think the world has Imu and places like Skypeia?
>>96937741OK, small update - I wrote down the skill levels and first few skills for the list. In general, I've made it go with "no skill, decent skill, good skill, great skill, exceptional skill" instead of a more gradual scale like the attributes, simply because there will be much more skills. I'm thinking that it's best to not describe each individual skill level for each skill, instead relying on the broad examples in the level description.

POST CRITICAL ROLE CYOA
>>96937222>>96937231>>96937235>>96937238I really like the mix of recruitable characters in Pirate's Life . . .but not the distribution of roles. Senkai the mermaid, for example, is an awesome asset - but I don't see her able to do the quartermaster job for any non-fishman crew. I'd love to have her leading an aquatic spec ops/scouting/salvage team, however.(Sure, go ahead and pitch your log book and treasure overboard. Means fewer casualties on my side, as my mer-team can fetch then without fighting.)Or Briar the alchemist. There are better candidates for the gunnery position, but I wouldn't mind having him on board in an R&D capacity.(Hey, if Luffy can justify an archaeologist . . .)Kale, Jora, and Scarlet catch my eye, too. For shipwright, I'm torn between Jill the robot and Sakimi the avian. And there are several good options for Sailing Master and Chef/Surgeon.(Good food and health care are key to morale, after all.)
Best CYOA to marry Tohsaka Rin and Sakura Matou at the same time?
>>96938621>ScarletMy concern with Scarlet is that she doesn't need (you). She's a charismatic leader and a combat powerhouse who already knows how to sail. Introduce her to the right people, and I can easily see her commanding her own crew. So she seems like a temporary member of the team at best.
>>96938014>Western>Storied>DarkI'm lovin it.

>>96938306Where's that from?>The CUMansMy people...
>>96938647> Tohsaka Rin and Sakura MatouFSN/HF is like: choose a girl:First girl is rude, arrogant, bossy and teases you, but she also saved your life multiple times, continues to save you, help you and heal you even if you reject her, book smart, owns a mansion and a virgin. She also wants to pull a switch in trolley dilemma, if you side with her, she can prevent deaths of thousands of innocent people.Second girl is shy nice tradwaifu... who also killed innocent people, wouldn't lift a finger to help you, she's always a victim, nothing ever is her fault, she has sex with other guy while dating you, she rips your arm during yandere moment, constantly tries to kill first girl because of envy. If you pick her, she will kill and eat thousands of innocent people, in the end you will die too.And main character, Shirou, unironically picks second girl.
>>96938918> she has sex with other guy while dating youThat's... certainly one way to put it.
>>96938918>main character, Shirou, unironically picks second girl.Good, cucks deserve heavily used whores. Rin deserves a real MAN.
>>96937643>Prematurely ending one of the most kino wars in history with fuck you snow falls hannibal dies go fight generic barbariansGenuinely what the fuck is the point of the 2nd Punic War period if you're going to do it dirty like that.
>>96938909Not only that, but the coomshit is obnoxiously forced. If you like to pick everything you want you are forced to compromise your world into an abomination straight out of Tok's wet dreams.
>>96938912>Where's that from?Crusader Kings 3 vidya game>The CUMans>My people...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumans
>>96939017Hannibal didn't die in the second punic war tho?
>>96937741What about a skill with disguises and blending in, or computers and hacking? Also you should add a skill in making her better at 'cleaning up' or something.
>>96938918>Shirou, unironically picks second girl.saviorfags be like that
>>96937643Kinda wish there had been a bronze age time period.
>>96939053He does in the Capeshitterverse
>>96937634The better comparison would be the Inventor creating a 'spawn battleship' ray. While the ray would require upkeep the battleship itself wouldn't, and they could keep using it to spawn as many battleships as they like compared to the Sorcerer having to recast the ritual each time.

>>96939303>movie franchise about giant blue ewoks fighting american stormtrooper colonizersExcept the Na'vi aren't cub furrfag bait and are tall and beautiful and ride dragons
>>96939338All the American-involved scenarios in the cyoa are unappealing to me. "What if the confederacy wins" is one of the most boring and generic alternative history hypotheticals, right next to "What if the Nazis won". Mexican-American war isn't interesting at all. And Vietnam ended exactly how it needed to, because, as much as I dislike commies, the Vietnamese were based and the US badly needed that humble pie.

>>96939515It is, but I wish I could see more of it from a common guy perspective, like a mining crew trying to make to the end of his tour without getting peltered by poisoned arrows or some grunt fighting a bio tank with only an assault rifleYou know, rednecks in space stuff, doing the hard lifting partProbably not as good as a movie but I really wish there was a more of "normal guy" type of stuff.

>>96939571See, trees don't win against flamethrowers, so I'm unsure about that.
>>96939643No to take Tok's side, but destroying nature is subhuman bugman behaviour.
>>96939691I agree with you, just saying that in general nature don't win against technology. Tech is often made to circumvent nature itself.
>>96939691Sometimes nature gets better from being destroyed. Ash is very good fertilizer.
>>96939691It's the IQ meme, both bugmen and engineers understand that trees stand in the way of progress.

>>96940433>BlindspotMandatory else you're a pawn to the precogs AND dying for nothing.
>>96940433Precogs are few and far inbetween. If you don't impact the greater plot you're fine not to take blindspot or even plot convenience. It might even be good not to since you can benefit from predictions.Voice in my head imo is a really underrated option. Lots of super useful insights to be had by taking it, especially if you have a finicky power.
>>96940433You have no agency unless you take Blindspot.

>>96940298>Hero and Stilling cost twice as much as every power>Hero costs as much as StillingWhich retard set these prices?
>>96940390>spend a bunch of points cobbling powers together>OR take broken limiterNot a good cyoa
>>96940541All shard stuff is dimensional technology, and the specialization of 'Hero' was interacting with that. Stilling is 'true damage' that bypass all shields via dimensional fuckery, so it counters almost everything else.
>>96940607>>96940541Remind me again, how was Hero relevant to anything that happened in Worm in the present of the story?
>>96940617He wasn't but iirc he was said to be functionally an omnicapable tinker since his specialization applied to pretty much everything.
>>96940607>the specialization of 'Hero' was interacting with thatYeah, you can build up to that but that's not what you start withFae Monarch and Eidolon clear until you've basically already won>>96940607>Stilling is 'true damage' that bypass all shields via dimensional fuckery, so it counters almost everything else.I'm complaining about it costing the same as Hero despite being way better. Anything you can do with Hero, you can do with Stilling immediately out of the gate without any resource needs or prep
>>96940617The ultimate precog on Cauldron used his death to make Alexandra & Eidolon more receptive to her 'end justify the means' logic as he was the morality pet.Don't go Cauldron, kids.
>>96940633Maybe it costs the same because Hero is basically a Tinker version of Stilling? That'd be my guess.
>>96940633I'd argue that Hero is better, as you could probably recreate Stilling and make more bullshit in the same vein.
>>96940629You don't recall correctly. He had a specialization in wavelength sciences and less limitations than most tinkers. Definitely not worth the price tag.There's a reason he died so early on. Same problem as >>96937505
>>96940578perpetuance is better
>>96940703When given the chance always be the black hole. With abbadon it's even better.
>>96940681>You don't recall correctlyWell apparently the power is not Hero 1:1 then, going by its description. I guess it's a similar case to how the Alexandria power removes your need to breathe which is definitely something Alexandria didn't have.
Why didn’t Contessa take Wisdom for her build?
>>96940703But then you get sting'd or bodyswapped or surgery'd or stranger'd or whatever else and die. And with broken limiter you'll still die of old age.
>>96940747>Wisdomwaste of pointsonly unwise anons need to waste points on that
>>96940747Because she spent her entire adult life letting her power dictate her actions instead of thinking for herself.
Wisdom is a trap option that kills you
>>96940728Nta but the powers are clearly not the canon ones. Most are straight up better, and a lot are just made up and references to other anime/manga/games, Broken Limiter is One Punch Man, Ultimate Luck is the power from Danganronpa, it even has Nagito as the picture, Death Perception is Fate. They are made to be broken compared to the setting.
>>96940751That's why you ST Ultimate Luck with Abaddon, then get Amy to make you biologically immortal
>>96940773I'm talking about the v1 Redux thing anon, not the v6 one.
>>96940773They're talking about this one >>96940262The only copies of canon powers in this one >>96940390 are weaker versions except for the 25 point powers
>>96940772Always, no matter the CYOA.Follow Tok's teachings. Don't pay for shit you already have.
>>96940751Black holes can distort time, you can just savescum. Also Abbadon makes your powers grow, if you can't savescum now you will be able to at some point.
>>96940390>>96940398Best Gift ?
>>96940809Bloom.
>>96940809Payoff. Death to all entities.Failsafe if you're a coward.
>>96940809If you're a jobber, then second chance or failsafeIf you're not, then probably interludes since it's a free power and can reveal people secretly plotting against you, and reveal what they know about youGood builds don't need metaknowledge beyond what's revealed in the cyoa, and non-jobbers will be plot relevant anyway.

>>96940874Weird way to spell Icon of Icons.
>>96940809Second chance/failsafe is coward shit. Payoff gives nothing but access to a mundane world. Metaknowledge is best if you haven't read the series but worthless if you have. Plot relevance could be kinda useful to influence the setting but most likely just endangers you needlessly and goes away once the plot is over. Gotta give it to Interludes for the constant source of free info.

>>96940390Is a Follower(perk) with Shard Administration+ op ?
>>96940929Yes, follower abuse is busted if you're willing to give them 25 point powers
>>96940929iirc the proposed most powerful build has a follower take Shard Administration+. I don't think anyone has ever suggested a stronger build.
>>96940703Missing the point

>>96940941The most powerful build is: https://www.reddit.com/r/makeyourchoice/comments/6b57yd/worm_cyoa_5_update_gimel/dhkqhs3/, with the small change of https://www.reddit.com/r/makeyourchoice/comments/6b57yd/worm_cyoa_5_update_gimel/dl3efig/.Instantly gain all powers.
>>96940793>Follow Tok's teachingsthat shit sobered me up
>>96940390Default rules make things too easy. Try to make a build with no powers above 7 points (Stand and Unlimited Shard Works are banned too).
>>96941005>Unlimited Shard Works STHow did he ever think this was balanced?
>>96941005USW exploit is dishonorable. Also maybe a trap option if you also get all the drawbacks of every worm power at once.
>>96940793>>96941017>borderline tranny that has a loss/forced feminization fetish>refuses to take wisdom>praises Krav Maga and TkDIt all adds ups.
>>96941048Exploits are meant to be used, rulesfag.
>>96941061You shame your cyoa-loving ancestors.
>>96941005>dead shardNo. The strongest build still gets all the powers, with Foreign Element, but it uses Shard Administration+ with a follower, and uses other followers and nemesis to get non-canon powers. You have to go Hero with the Companionship Perk to get followers with the Conspirator background for cauldron stuff.
>>96941073NTA, but perhaps you can make an argument about loving CYOAs so much you squeeze every bit of fun out of the mechanics?
>>96940793I actually agree with Tok on this. Intelligence boosts are dangerously close to identity death and they usually cost a lot of points. Tok really wouldn't be Tok if he was smart.
>>96941083You get more fun out of the mechanics when there isn't an obvious best choice.
Does Deceitful Trickster work against Seventh Sense?
LolTide might be over, but it's never too late to make fun of everyone who picked Khier+Zhivete >>isn't Khier with Zhivete the same?>(Tankista)No. This letter combination means that Omega encounters 00 in her seat of power, but merely survives the scenario. But it doesn't matter, because it also leaves her death slot open, which means that 00 can simply say "Alright. I do it again." assigning and instantly resolving Khier again.
>>96941088I’ve said for years this is why I am extremely reluctant to pick high-tier intelligence boosts. I’m actually fine if it’s a slow increase over time or a small boost, but I feel like becoming a superhuman genius overnight is going to fundamentally reshape your personality in ways you can’t possibly foresee
>>96941162I don't know if Rake ever answered that. Personally I would assume that if two people are at the same stage, Seventh Sense would still be able to provide some warning against an attack/ambush from Deceitful Trickster, but not be that useful otherwise in finding out anything about the trickster.

>>96941237I can avoid danger via technopathy seeing through cameras.
>>96941088>Intelligence boosts are dangerously close to identity deathAre they? It's not like you're freed of the various mental blindspots and obsessions that make you "you".
>>96940258>Do you guys have any advice for finding sci-fi spaceship art? This shit is elusive.Try searching by franchise name. Most scifi shows (Western or anime) like to release art that shows off their distinctive ship styles.
>>96941279Good bait have a (You)
>>96941313
>>96941303There's an argument to be made, particularly if the IQ change is really extreme. Think of a game you like - would you still enjoy it, if you could predict every outcome and read every tell?
>>96941279>seeing through cameras.You think that's enough? Even assuming there isn't threats hidden in the blindspots you still have the countless Movers, counter Tinkers, and->he picked Worst Day Ever x3 AND Slaughterhouse 9...Forget it, you're dead meat anyway. You're not surviving the day.
>>96941357It depends on the original mindset, I think.If you liked the game because it was mindless relaxation (fighting games) or some 4D conversation with someone else (chess) chances are you'll still do it the brain boost.It also depends in how severe the uplifiting is.
>>96939529>You know, rednecks in space stuff, doing the hard lifting partCheck out a BBC show called Red Dwarf. Or the old Sean Connery movie, Outland.
>>96941390...You have a true channel named BBC? It predates the meme, obviously, but that's hilarious.

>>96941406>luck>WormI wonder if we'll get the same kind of hopeful idealism in Lord of the Mysteries.
>>96941421Does LotM plot also have an apocalyptic event that makes all small scale stuff irrelevant?
>>96941421What do you think luck is? Magic? It can't insert knowledge of me into everyone and mind control them into abandoning everything to attack me.
>>96941427Kind of, but it'll only happen in the sequel, and the smaller scale stuff still mattered then. You can also just sit back and let the protagonists handle it too since victory there wasn't as luck-based as Worm's.Just don't try to become a god and don't get in the protagonist's way and you'll be fine.
>>96941436You are dropped in front of a moving car. You are shot by a stray bullet. You are mistaken for a criminal. A gang of homeless men decide to attack you. A supervillain has a bad day and decides to take it out on you. You get caught up in a random bombing. Several of the world-ending quarantines are broken. An endbringer decides to attack your location. The apocalypse is triggered early. You have died.
>>96941390Red Dwarf was funny but its more of a subversion of that. More like if all the neets here got thrown onto a spaceship

>>96941570Shhh, Anon SOLVED Worm.
>>96941553I don't know why you assume luck is incapable of influencing people's minds or breaking quarantines. As long as it isn't literally impossible it's within luck's purview to affect.

>>96941638Okay, but why are you drawing the limit there specifically? There's a difference between 'this thing is not all powerful' and 'this thing has these specific limitations'. Especially given that level 3 is described as 'the whole world is trying to kill you' it seems prudent to err on the side of 'yes it can'.
>>96938647call of the midnight world I guess?
>>96941727Because the scale of complexity of nudging a gun to be fired a few centimeters off is incomparable to that of controlling billions of neurons to fire in such as way as to achieve mind control.
>>96941421Too many anons will trap themselves thinking they can tank corruption.Do you think the PGA and CW awakenings are a risk in the Modern Day scenario? Are they destined to awaken in the future like they do in the original setting?
>>96941927They are always a risk because they are the original wills of their pathway characteristics, which are indestructible.
>>96941894That still doesn't explain how you figured out that altering minds was too much. Again, we are talking 'it seems like the entire world is trying to kill you' levels of bad luck. This drawback is implicitly worse than having the S9 after you, despite only lasting a single day. To assume that the only threats you'll have to face can be comfortably dealt with by simple technopathy and peak human strength is just way too generous.
>>96941959Yes, but their influence was drastically lessened by the 5th epoch which is why Amon and Adam were comfortable ascending then. By then, PGA and CW had already fought, "died," and split. I was wondering if Tankista's In Modern Day setting was prior to their original awakening (in which case the only way to survive with a Pillar path would be to cap yourself at Sequence 2 for a LONG time) or if their initial awakening is off the table since the timeline is totally different.
>be a GAcuck>have to contend with 4 other powerhouse pathways AND deal with an original pillar AND have all hostile GOOs have a vested interest in ensuring you fail>be a LOTMfag>have to contend with 2 other pathways (in the slimiest most cowardly pathway group) AND deal with an original pillar AND have all hostile GOOs have a vested interest in ensuring you fail>be DOKGOD>have to contend with 1 (one) other pathway (a pathway you hard counter if you made the right choices), pillars dont really care about you, minimal GOOs trying to fuck you upThere's correct choices and incorrect choices in LOTM.
The cyoa isn't even out yet
>>96942116Don't forget that CW is still going to win in the end despite how many things went Klein's wayThere's no real winning in trying to become a pillar, only buying time until its original owner wakes up.
>>96942116>pillars dont really care about you, minimal GOOs trying to fuck you up>hoping to survive via the good graces of otherlmao
>>96942128Adam had a decent strategy with the half-GOO plan.
>>96941718All job to Alta
>>96942148You survive via the good graces of others no matter what. Even Pillars can be killed by just enough GOOs with contrasting symbolisms. Accrue allies and give people less of a reason to kill you, nobody in setting can just do whatever the fuck they please to whoever the fuck they please and face no consequences.
>>96942148>having less enemies is surviving by the good graces of others
I hate canonfagging
>>96942178What do you love?
>>96942183He loves you anonDon't make him say it
>>96942275Personality, I would've preferred a Reverend Insanity cyoa by Tank. Way less trap options and a lot more forgiving power system.
>>96942275What even is Lord of the Mysteries? Just more cultivation daoslop?
>>96942275I think God Almighty is the Great Old One with which you have to deal with the least amount remnant will because you can replace most of your characteristics with fakes via Visionary. You could end up with only the Chaos Sea, the Uniquenesses, one s1 characteristic of each pathway, and everything else being fake.
>>96942275Lol, how many anons are going to take strength as their present card with one of the origins that give a free sequence skip?
>>96942333progression fantasy sloppa with cosmic horror victorian paint
>>96942333>What even is Lord of the Mysteries? Just more cultivation daoslop?Kind of, its definitely progression fantasy but it doesn't have ties to Chinese mysticism like cultivation does.
>>96942343>victorianit's victorian steampunk akshually
>>96942275How viable is Present The World?
>>96942356>progression fantasy without Chinese mysticismExamples of this?
>>96942335Adam only did that temporarily to stop the Gods from helping klein no? I haven't read CoI so I may be wrong
>>96942375Worm
>>96942375Outer Reincarnation unironically. Homestuck, too.
>>96942335>Bros asking for a Reasonable DevelopmentUnless you take modern day ig>>96942356>it doesn't have ties to Chinese mysticism like cultivation does.Chinese mysticism was CW larping and Abrahamic religions were GA larping. Technically, there's also cultivation daoslop in the western continent but it's kind of presented as an inferior version of the beyonder system because it's impossible to become a GOO with it.
>>96942375Well Lord of the Mysteries power system works by chugging potions that give increasingly complex superpowers. It has lots of similarities to western alchemy.
>>96942391>it's kind of presented as an inferior version of the beyonder systemabsolutely crazy a chinese author would do this
>>96942275If you don't choose In Modern Day you're NGMI and not getting added to the build list. Simple as.
>>96942391> it's impossible to become a GOO with itDon't cry, Beri... one day...
>>96942403The author of LoTM is unironically a Euroboo.
>>96942357>victorian steampunk animeI never seen a combo that I hated more
>>96942381That's related. Visionary by itself has the ability to replace two of their s1 characteristics with fakes. With the Chaos Sea, Visionary can (temporarily) replace Uniquenesses too and do that spoiler.
>>96942420Why was that nigga obsessed with gelatinous substances again?
>>96942048>I was wondering if Tankista's In Modern Day setting was prior to their original awakeningIt isn't. In Modern Day says "this time around", which means that it takes place after the original setting.
>>96942430Its kino, trust. The steampunk elements are rarely apparent because the organisation responsible for producing steampunk technology has limited control. For the most part is just standard Victorian.
>>96942431Man the Visionary pathway is busted as fuck, probably my favourite. I'm kinda mad its lumped under GA's pillar.
>>96942403Tbf, I'm not sure if inferior is really the right word for it.You can become equal to gods with it; it's just that S0s from the beyonder system can become GOO without it, but Dao integrators(the S0 equivalents) can't become GOO without advancing through the beyonder system instead.
>>96942487Can you do both systems simultaneously?
>>96942335The Chaos Sea is one of the most corruptive sefirah in the verse. It has never been accommodated by someone other than the original God Almighty and Adam could only influence it with the Blasphemy Slate.
>>96942504You'd probably fall into madness, and it would be better to just focus on advancing through the beyonder system instead desuAside from that, I don't see why you couldn't
>>96942521imma do it anyway!
>>96942357It's Victorian with occasional blimps and newly-minted industrial suffering. Top hats, revolvers, pirate ships, carriages, occasional toiling in factories. >>96942375Beyonders in LOTM have to "digest" potions by acting out certain principles. Discovering what these principles are and how to effectively act them out is a common factor in the story. Knowledge is a huge advantage.
Reminder that any esoteric bullshit can be beaten by punching it hard enough
>>96942597Fellow Void Body chad.
>>96942333>cultivation daoslop?>>96942343>progression fantasy sloppa with cosmic horror victorian>>96942357>victorian steampunkAll of the above. It's cthulhupunk cultivation in victorian steamland.
>>96942395>It has lots of similarities to western alchemy.Western alchemy wasn't about chugging potions that gave you superpowers. That's D&D memeslop just like the separation between clerics druids and wizard(all literally the same thing historically).
>>96942624The portion chugging was an oversimplification for the sake of getting the point across retarded jeet.
>>96942608You forgot the SCP-like anomalous object containment elements.
>>96942624>He wasn't around when Roger Bacon and Pseudo-Geber leveled half of Europe with their battle to the death
>>96942597If you try doing that in LoTM you'll get eldritch cancer.
>>96942671I'd punch that too
>>96942597How will you punch your way out of getting impregnated?
>>96942684I already punched the concept of sexual reproduction
>>96939272I vote for druid, but only if it's about the same size as Dragonfall. You did a good job adding unique choices that allowed the CYOA to expand beyond traditional dragons - if you do the same with druidry it could be pretty cool, but if you cheap out and just repackage the same options from every other druid/ranger CYOA it will suck. Highly specific biomes should be included: thronscrub, mangroves, whatever. Something with Avatar could be good, but franchise CYOAs are almost always less interesting. Hurry up with HH so you can make something people here are actually into
>>96942684Aim low.
>>96942510Nooooooooooooo! I'm still gonna go for God Almighty.
>>96942708>He thinks MGoD needs sexual organs to do her fuckery.lol
>>96942727What Sequence 9 are you starting with?
>>96942746White Tower to maximize my knowledge advantage.
My favourite LoTM moment was when the protag lowered the IQs of humanity worldwide while reaching S0.

I want to fuck the Mother God of Depravity.
Yo do another cyoa competition
>>96943213Why would you want to fuck Tok's mother?
>>96943223Nah, the last one was depressing. All we got was 1 mid oc and 2 shitty ones.
>>96943237Which one was mid? They were all shitty, the best choice is not to play in two of them and the last one is a doodle pill picker. The original 3rd author STILL has not posted the promised cyoa, and it's been way more than the "1 more week" he said it would take.
>>96943224Tok needs a father figure. Someone who can teach him how to be a man and how to fight.
>>96943285>the best choice is not to play in two of them aNah, you're just a bitch
>>96943299They are both shitty grimderp miseryporn. The sword one even has a replacement ready that will do a better job than you.
>>96943327No, you're just a soft fruit who refuses to go for an actual adventure if it involves any degree of risk or dangerYou'd unironically fit much better on reddit
>>96943237You don't deserve OC.
>>96942651You don't actually know anything about western alchemy or the pursuit of the magnum opus do you?
>>96943293>greatest fuck/love of your life>you get Tok as a stepchildDeal or no deal?

>>96943407She adopted him from her dead sister
>>96943363Sure. I'll lord it over him
>>96943407I'm not sure how you can read a name like that without imagining the most used goods, ever.
>>96943475Perhaps she's just good at making OTHERS mate and have a lot of fetishes?
>ctrl+F>no vermillionToday was a good day.
>>96943522You're taunting me.
>>96943522>Matterjeeta gave up Based
>>96943475I am just pointing out that my requirements for the greatest fuck/love of my life is incompatible with her being used goods. It's not my fault I was offered a faulty deal.
>>96943586It's because CC is objectively bad so not even an autistic shill could keep it relevant.
>>96943589How many fucks/loves does she have to compete with?She doesn't have to be the best possible
>>96943586Tell me the story of Matterjeet/Matterjeeta, who is he? She? What does s/he/it want?
>>96943620It doesn't matter if there is no competition when she doesn't even qualify, she is not part of the competition either.
>>96943599Sounds like you have a case of sour coriander.
>>96943628Matterwife is the spouse of another user on this boardShe posts meta-physics bait and misunderstands scientific concepts to flirt with himShe would never confirm it, but you need to trust me on this one
>>96943671d'awww... that's cute and romantic
>>96943671>She posts meta-physics bait and misunderstands scientific concepts to flirt with himFalse. She seeks attention from others men ITT like a hotwife.
CHainsawman cyoa when
>>96942275It's such a pity that the best two pathways to God Almighty are unviable In Modern Day.Hanged Man being unable to skip s9-8 needs no elaboration.Visionary is not as bad, but s9 Spectator... How can you be a spectator during the start of the era of mystery? Doing so is giving up (y)our opportunity to make it big while others are still scrambling about. To obtain as much benefits as possible, there is no choice but to take center stage. If you start as a Spectator, you either sit out the initial most advantageous period or forget about advancing anytime soon and risk madness by not acting.
>>96943928Tyrant's Sea authority is confirmed to be able to indirectly affect the Sea of Collective Subconscious, River of Fate, and Chaos Sea. It seems like it might be a good alternative to accommodating the Sefirah at S0.(Then again, Visionary could just envision the Tyrant Uniqueness instead.)You could also just do it the hard way and go Sun, which is pretty much the core GA pathway in the same way that Fool is the core LOTM pathway.

>>96944034I really wonder about the eyeball god's powerlevel if it's responsible for the metaphysical restlessness of the Endless Ocean but can be murdered with sufficient ships. Can it not, I don't know, just open up a maelstrom and sink everyone or hide at the bottom of the sea and swipe at you with it's tentacles? If you don't own a submarine, are you dropping depth charges into it's lair to get it to come up and fight?
>>96944153Hey, I'm just repeating what I've been told. Could just be 4chan trolling, could be legit. I don't know either way.
>>96944195>I really wonder about the eyeball god's powerlevelBack in the day, ScottishAnon actually provided ranked power levels for his cyoas, like how a Guardian matches up against That Which Follows. Anyone still have it handy?
>>96944211

Even if you are only affected a little each time (nigh impossible), you'll inevitably be insane by the end.Visionary s9 Spectator's acting method (the #1 way to digest beyonder characteristics, i.e. improve control and power of your abilities, and not go insane) is, as its name, to be a spectator, a background character.>a Spectator is always just a spectator - they can never take the stage themselves

>>96944280No, which is my point. Hanged Man s9-8 are must skips. In Modern Day doesn't allow skipping them. Thus, it is unviable to start with the Hanged Man pathway In Modern Day.

I hope would still have them in the Night Ride situation, but if not, I could try to make do with some rope. Tie up the hitchhiker until I can verify that they need to stretch, eat, sleep, and use the bathroom like a normal human being.
>>96944585>do you normally go around with silver and cold iron?>I keep a lockbox of silver dollars and a horseshoe from the mid-1800s in my car, in-case I ever need to bribe anybody and for sentimental reasons, respectively.Sounds like there's a story there.

>>96944602Nothing too impressive. I live in the deep south and most of the cops and druggies around here are trigger-happy. It never hurts to be too careful, and if it comes down to it I would rather trust my life to silver than paper. The horseshoe's just a handmedown from my grandpa, and his grandpa's grandpa's grandpa.
>>96944649>The horseshoe's just a handmedown from my grandpa, and his grandpa's grandpa's grandpa.My relatives were smiths and farriers, too. Still have the old smithy, actually, but it's about to fall down, and no one's been bold enough to seek keepsakes in it (yet).
