>>97316470Pros: no immortalityCons: way too long, bloated with like 10 pages of video game combat skills that are boring to read throughnu D&D brainrot, muh oathsWarcraft brainrot, muh "light," no godsoaths are crippling geas, enjoy being able to do nothing in exchange for poweryou'll never be anything more than a sidekick to the companions who are stronger than you can ever be anywayoaths don't even matter though because you can just redeem yourself if you break one, isn't that easyVerdict: it's shit but at least Tok can't play it
>>97316562
>>97316592
>>97316433yes im a brainlet but this cyoa is too long for me to sit here and play, i would kill for an interactive version
>>97316598
>>97316442so what does actually do it for you then if its not the wings, the holyness, the alieness, the fact that theyre actually more like automatons if we go by biblical standards, the holier than thou side to them, like what is it about them that makes it so it specifically has to be "angel" women and not a woman with wings or just a woman or smth
>>97316599>i would kill for an interactive versionwow! not only a brainlet but also a reddittor/faggot
Italics Psychic CYOA really is the only hope this general has at being saved, huh.
>>97316470I don’t agree with many of the cat’s points, but I do think it’s worth mentioning a ton of choices are duplicative and I feel as though the oaths incentivize building for direct confrontations. That doesn’t even consider there are several insta-win techniques with a variety of conditions that make some actually pointless and the others much stronger due to a lower bar of execution
>>97316433It may be ugly, but at least its really long
>>97316572>Pros: no immortality
>>97316739How is it ugly? I thought Spirit Conscript's art was one of its high points.
>>97316460It has no immortality, no heaven, only destined anti-resurrection death.
>>97316749>How is it ugly?its just generic anime art with no particular cohesive style or tone slapped onto some tok-tier boxes
>>97316739name 5 pretty cyoas
>>97316758There's a strong cohesion to all of it, that being vaguely eastern mystical kung-fu. A more egregious flaw is that all of the male companions are raging homosexuals.
>>97316765Basically anything by tankista or nxtub
>>97316770yea man just look at how cohesive this is
>>97316770>all of the male companions are raging homosexualsMy bro Fang isn't a homo
>>97316772>tankista>pretty
>>97316676>The CYOA is urban sci-fi as you take on the role of a 3rd Generation Psychic living in a strangereal 199X, decades after the previous generations caused a dark age/world domination, and restructured society around the influence of Psychics that can imprint their will on the world.>The CYOA is set in Metropolis and its surrounding areas, imagine it as a mega city built on another city, a Tokyo mixed with Kowloon City. It's dominated by Psychics thanks to the NWO presence/investments and fictional entities that are making a mess of reality in its more seedy/under-managed parts. While this is going, you have Psychics acting as humanity's elite by becoming celebrities, criminal syndicates, duelist, clubs, etc.>The main goal of the CYOA is to get your unique Psychic Powers, your Extrasensory Perceptions, and decide what to do with your life as a youth in a big unpredictable megalopolis.Who even asked for this CYOA? Who is the audience? Why would anyone want a CYOA set in the 90s?>I should explain that:>1. Psychic Power = Unique powers that are unique to each Psychic's view of the world and how their brain imprints itself on the world, this cannot be replicated by others because it's defined by the person that experienced the world.>2. Extrasensory Perception = Sub-powers that allows you impact the world in some form, but doesn't involve the complete invoking of your innate power and lets you get away with feats. These can be learned by others if they find someone to teach them or they are big brain enough to make them..The power system is chalked already.
>>97316809>Who even asked for this CYOA? Who is the audience? Why would anyone want a CYOA set in the 90s?CYOAG did, I remember someone asking questions about a psychic cyoa a couple months ago, and this is mostly what anons said they wanted to see
>>97316774Very cohesive, all eastern, all kung-fu oriented. The only thing questionable here is the color-palette, but they each accentuate their options in an aesthetically pleasing and congruent way. It isn't the best by any means but it is far from ugly.>>97316783My heart sinks to tell you this, but Fang Wenyan is more flagrantly metrosexual than the San Francisco public transit. For some reason I can't get a connection to upload a screencap, but his character image and text speak for themselves.
>>97316831But did they want a chalked power system where you can ONLY have ONE power? Huh, powercuck?
>>97316774Yea man, the catholic nun/magical girl in black and white and the blue vampire definetly look "eastern" and martial arts oriented. The sum of the cohesion is "its anime style art", but at that point the bar is in hell and you would need to actively try make a non-cohesive cyoa
>>97316849>aesthetically pleasing and congruentyou are off your rocker m8
>>97316853No, that's why they asked for the ESP thing to exist. So they can still learn other sub-powers even if they only have 1 main one.Actually it might have been the author that took initiative there, but anons not wanting to only have 1 power is why ESP powers are a thing.

>>97316910reddit build
>>97316910My Build>>97316433Universal Sovereign+Mind Splitting+Transfiguration means I can create as much clones as I need anytime I have some extra aura lying around. US grants infinite soul lifespan, Transfiguration takes care of vessel creation, while mind splitting enables creation of clones and phylacteries. This should make me incredibly hard to kill completely, as I’d have hundreds of clones operating everywhere. The key combat capability of this build however hinges in the combo of Unbinding of Abyss Lord+Universal Sovereign. When both are activated, I am able to empower my abyssal lord summon, and also use fusion summon to become an abyssal lord myself. Since I can have multiple clones that share my aura and abilities, they too can fuse with their own Abyssal Lord Summon. Resilience gives me the capability to withstand the Abyssal Lords' madness head on in case I lose control over them or need to fuse with them. Besides taking Universal Sovereign as a signature should make the fusion summon safer, stronger and cheaper in aura cost in general imo. The Abyss Lords seems diverse enough that I can probably find one for any situation I might need, but the empowerment from Universal Sovereign also means that each of them would be stronger and constantly regenerating from damage.My job is a surveyor selling stuff I find to the Catacombs, Senguru and the Majushin. Koha in particular is my main liaison with the rest of the Majushin, and I place some of my clones inside their turtle islands as well. My affiliations tend to remain secret, as I am an outlaw that can be hunted down freely for dabbling with dangerous abyssal monsters. I live in Limbo where I can easily hide from the authorities, and even set traps against enemies that tries to hunt me down using my legend tactic capability.I will use my split clones to explore, gather information and loot, and if my clones get destroyed I can always make more later.
>>97316854You're one nitpicky faggot aren't you?
>>97316854sylen hands wrote this post
>>97316433kino
>>97316966Why did anons hyperfixate on the single shittiest waifu in the cyoa?
>>97316865You are coping. Sub powers aren't even real powers especially if others can learn them and use them AGAINST you.
>>97316970we are talking about mai here, not ono
>>97316992>we are talking about maiYes that's who I'm talking about too.>Shittiest art (wtf is that lmao it looks ai generated)>Shittiest personality (hentai-tier whore and nothing else)>Shittiest bodytype (obese pig)Only thing she has going for her is that she's a strong and connected.
>>97317025meh, weak bait
CYOAs for this feel?
>>97316391If you were given the choice of who could be the final boss of your adventure, would you accept a few points for rolling who the final boss is after making your build?The main reason would be so people don't just build with the idea to only counter who that will be and will make the stronger builds more original. Or would it be pointless and just make it so people go for the biggest numbers possible?
>>97317092
>>97317067>no arguments to defend his waifu.See? even maifags know that she's dogshit.
>>97317117>rolling
>>97316572>to the companions who are stronger than you can ever belmao, what an absolute fucking disgrace you are. Skill issue of the highest order.
>>97317092make more jokes about rape, i wanna see this faggot >>97317119 have a mental breakdown
>>97317163Funnily enough I was the one that first posted that image here also asking for CYOAs for that feel I did get a few good recommendations that time too.
>>97317163damn rajeet tweaking
>>97317170I reposted that image because it reminded me of your post, so that's why lmao. But what kind of recommendations are you hoping to get from that retarded xitter post, its pretty much intelligible.
>>97317184I dunno I just found it funny and if I get cool suggestions That's even better I like being surprised.
>>97317025nta but what they meant was that ono is the worst waifu cause she kinda is given how utterly incompetent and bratty she ismai on the other hand, i will admit its off putting for her to be that into sex but it is to an extent understandable given various factors like her age and lack of previous romancei will say its interesting for people to see super model tier bodies and call them obese pigs, its like youve never seen what obesity actually is just what the magazines want you to think obesity is so they can sell you weightloss and beauty drugs, unless youre reffering to her ample chest and hips/ass in which case, i know some people prefer flat over stacked or medium but this is just absurd
>>97317271>he took the bait
>>97317117I like rolling and am a gambling addict, so I would be enthusiastic about this but most anons don't like risk, so you would get a lot of flack even if it were optional.
>>97317280meh i dont mind, not too much of a mai fan meself but calling her an obese pig when there are people in the world who would commit unspeakable crimes to get a body like hers is kinda, interesting, i guess, only people who wouldnt would be men and people who see anything but skeletal and think "fat pig" cause magazine indoctrination or some shitand i guess people who understand breasts that big would hurt ones back without a strength boost helping things out
>>97316470Pic related is how it feels to play this CYOA.
>>97317342Would you rather be empowered by the god of rape?She gives you power by raping women virgins give more points and the more degrading and painful for her also gives you bonus points.
>>97317365Sar use commas please sar please please sar use commas sar sar please sar use commas sar
>>97317365Isekai Rape Monster exists, but you don't actually need to do any raping or evil actions
>>97317341>people who see anything but skeletal and think "fat pig"those are Chinese beauty standards, anon>>97317372>Isekai Rape Monstergreat cyoa
>>97317370I follow the Cormac McCarthy school of writing commas are gay>>97317372There is a difference in that you would have to rape in this case
>>97317365Rape doesn't interest me. Got consensual pure vanilla waifu love instead?
>>97317415>vanillaboring
>>97317415Then why do you think being a mildly good person is like being castrated?I would venture to guess you don't want to randomly murder people either and would be ok helping people once in a while.
>>97316470I enjoyed it at least.
>>97316516Yep.
>>97317429How large?
>>97317431"By my oath, i am not a god">>97317450you can ride it
>>97317429How loyal are either of them?
>>97317458Bug then, I can sell it to science institutions for study. Supermodel girlfriend won't share her money (women are evil and selfish)
>>97317462You're evil and jewish for selling your loyal bug companion to science institutions for study.
>>97317460girlfriend will be loyal so long as you treat her decently the bug is ride or die.
>>97317431>would be ok helping people once in a whileone in a while my ass
Rolled 2 (1d7)>>97317429large bug>>97317385one of these waifus will pretend to love me so they can pet my large bug
>>97317471Define "treat her decently"I'm leaning bug, but the answer here could sway me
>>97317462>wants to sell a cool bug he can ridefuck you
>>97317479>The only one with shorts rather than skirtBased and practical. She can comfortably ride the large bug with me.
>>97317458>"By my oath, i am not a god"Is being humble that difficult?>>97317472Yeah it says there that there is no need to go around doing good you just have to actively help people but not in an exagerated way where you never rest or become a hobo.>>97317482Just give her a gift once in a while and tell her you love her, stuff like that.
https://imgchest.com/p/dl7pn29mpyo
>>97317508Is this Fire Punch?
>>97317429>Supermodel girlfriendI can break up with her in 5 minutes or less, but killing the bug would take far longer.>>97317462Weak. You could make more money and keep the bug by monetizing it on social media, which would still leave you the option of selling it later.
>>97317504you bad faith shithead, what is the point of having power if i cannot use it to do what i want?
>>97317431It's really quite simple. The CYOA is objectively bad. What you are presenting is a false dichotomy.>you either want to help people or rape!How about some good fucking food?
>>97317535What can't you do with it that you want to?
>you bad faith shithead, what is the point of having power if i cannot use it to do what i want?
>>97317540NTA but I'm cooking anon, with all the moral relativism you could ever want, with an orange and blue morality god you can pledge yourself to for more power.
>>97316572>no godsThe Light Indomitable IS a god/God. It's far closer to a "proper" divinity than a dnd deity.>oaths are crippling geasNo, they're not at all how geas work.>enjoy being able to do nothing in exchange for powerThe oaths are not particularly restrictive.>you'll never be anything more than a sidekick to the companions who are stronger than you can ever be anywayWe've been other this (Dawn excluded), the companions stack up perfectly fine against the things you can build.>oaths don't even matter though, because you can just redeem yourself if you break one, isn't that easyIf redeeming yourself were easy, you wouldn't have broken your oath in the first place.>>97317504"I will work for good" means that you have to always be actively able to say, "as it stands right now, I am actively doing good where I am in life". This can mean you stay in one place, if being there/in that community is doing actual meaningful good. Yes. "I am not a god" is less about active humility (although that virtue definitely helps with the oath) and more about the fact that the powers given shouldn't be used in selfish ways; they exist to allow you to help others, rather than pursue personal goals and ambitions (meaning for example: getting yourself positions of power, making yourself rich, living a life of hedonism instead of doing good). It does not mean you cant use your wings to cross a puddle "because thats for personal gain", but it does mean you shouldnt use your powers to become a star athlete or beat people at races for prize money. >>97317535To do good.
>>97317458That is a big bug.
>>97316470The best thing about Radiant is the amount of seething from evil anons it has caused. The worst thing about Radiant is the balance. It is ridiculous that there are comparably priced, universal-scaling powers in the same roster as helping a farmer's crops grow healthier.
>>97317553coolest character in kung fu panda>>97317555how about you don't involve morality in cyoas
>>97317553Power is and has always been pointless anon. It fundamentally Cannot get you the things you want, only Wisdom can do that.The race for power is as much an endless rat-race as any wagie cage.
Not only catfag is not a god, he's also less than human. A subhuman, if you will
>>97317592>how about you don't involve morality in cyoasHow do you even do that?Having characters at all involves morality.
>>97317595This is a non-sequitor. If anon wants gold, or sex, or victory, power can get him all of those things. What power cannot do is get rid of the want for more. If anon is more content with the striving for more than the fulfillment of nothing, power is what he needs.
>>97317595>MUH WISDOMWhats your wisdom gonna do when when I place a cleaver between your eyes, grandpa?
>>97317595>powers is pointless, trust meSour grapes
>>97317592>how about you don't involve morality>in a paladin cyoa
>>97317592>how about you don't involve morality in cyoaslmao, how about you stop being an edgy 14 years old and grow up
>>97317551Notice the lack of reply to this post.Very telling...
>>97317635Because his answer will be "sit on my ass in my room for eternity like I'm doing right now" and deep in his heart he knows that.
>>97317616You want things for a reason. Removing the "want" for something inevitably leads down the road of nihilism. Why exist if not for the pleasure of existing? You dont have to inflict pain upon other beings. But every single "faith" or "philosophy" that practices anti attachment discipline is at its heart nihilistic and you might as well an hero then.
>>97317628i want not talking about the paladin cyoa, retard
>>97317551Catfag here. I want to rape, RAPE,M RAPEW RAPE RAPE RAPE RAPE RAPE RAPE RAPE
>>97317595This mentality is what gets psychopaths into lording positions.
>>97317635>>97317648pussies like you will never understand personal ambition, there is no reason to answer younow go back to wageslave for your light mommy
>>97317575What power do you mean by "universal scaling"? Equilibrium? Soulfire? Either way, theyre a good bit more expensive than Blessed Totem (and somewhat situational), and offer far less help outside combat (which is a given, considering one isnt a combat power while the others are, there's multiple "utility" powers that offer no assistance at fighting, but help a paladin do good in other ways - I didnt want to force people to go be "cosmic cops" if they don't want to, they can go do more mundane helping people things if they want).But I won't deny that there's probably some powers that could use some tweaking on the balance front (soulfire and divine judgement are probably the big ones).
Posting again because I was too drunk to make a build for this last night and gave up halfway. I will take anon's advice and play in Realistic mode
>>97317673I'm a landlord I do work too but mostly to pass the time shilling in the office.I would do the same in the paladin CYOA just jhave shill adventures with my harem party and then shill out in heaven with litteral god as my waifu.72 virgins as a reward?lmao rookie numbers.

Italics, please just lore dump about your psychic CYOA. This way we have something on topic to talk about.
>>97317704
>>97317595All of asian culture is about Owning nothing and being happy, or at least not complaining too loud. Japs even get commercialized fantasies about power and individuality but will NEVER EVER stir the pot irl, they're going extinct because they cant even ask girls out. They are cucked people whos main export is child porn.
>>97317707
>>97317705this is more on topic than italics wip lore posting
If no new OC is dropping until Friday, then I will share some OC. Currently only need to write up some more companions for my Super Hero CYOA. You can be a murder hobo villain that chases power and doesn't care about wisdom.

>>97317717>capeslopIt got me wondering. Anons!Which is better:>ACape setting based on our Earth, where everything supernatural has a single originExamples: Worm by Wildbow, the Harbinger CYOA by 53413760>BCape setting based on our Earth, where there's a dizzing variety of reasons someone or something may end up supernaturalExamples: all the big comic book cape settings like Marvel, DC and InvincibleAs for me,I'm very pro-A, but I imagine american anons who actually grew up on comic books lean pro-B?
>>97316470>pandering to moralfagscringe
So what this whole paladin shitfest tells me is that any cyoa that isn't open-ended stakes-free wish fulfilment with no plot hooks, premise, or any identity beyond being pure unfiltered powerslop is not allowed here anymore? is that it?
>>973178631 for the intimidation factor.
>>97317843Why not both? Its a CYOA. I prefer A though. B has the problem of explaining why more people dont just spam super powers. For an example, Marvel and gamma radiation or super soldier serum. Why are there not like a thousand variants of hulk running around?
>>97317855bad faith bait post
>>973178634, you can use it to pierce your enemy
>>97317717I'm really bad at making original superheros in CYOAs. It always ends up being...>super soldier>werewolf hulk-wolverine>jedi>paladin>science tech guy that tries to empower groups of mundane humans into being low-level super soldiers
>>97317914
There has never been a bad Cape-based CYOA. In fact all of them have been bangers.I dare any of your hoe asses to name 3 bad Cape-based CYOAs.
>>97317870>Why are there not like a thousand variants of hulk running around?Because Hulk is actually empowered by The One Below All, gamma radiation is just the catalyst. Also there are plenty of hulk clones in marvel like red hulk, she-hulk, abomination, etc...
>>97317843>>97317870>Deities migrate into Earth en masse, blessing mortals with super-powers (without them knowing any better) to try and one-up the other's representatives.>As per cosmic law, the planet is allowed to fight back, to a capacity. Player is elected as the local deity, and must choose and equip their own representatives to fight back against the colonizer's supes.
>>97317870Basically every time someone tries to do that it backfires horribly.
>>97317887Ironic since the paladin hate is literally built on bad faith and strawman.
>>97317943the idea sounds way too cool to be a capeshit cyoa
>>97317954>>97317887
>>97317967Thematic for the Dark Unfathomable's agents, yes?
>>97317843Why not both?A for all the superheros making buildsB for supernatural everything else
Found this neet capslop powersource guide a while ago.
>>97317967It's actually the classroom of brains plot, except deities instead of super-advanced alien races tbdes.
>>97317943>Player is elected as the local deity, and must choose and equip their own representatives to fight back against the colonizer's supes.This is the part that took me out of it. Colony management sim cyoas are boring.
>>97317936You're forgetting about the interactive nsfw super hero CYOAs.Most of them are terrible.
What are anons opinions on being able to invade each others settings in a CYOA? Secret wars style, that is.

>>97318144:(
>>97318035I don't want anon to come rape my waifus and
>>97318114>CYOAGscute newfriend
>>97318114Pretty much yeah.
>>97318150and what, you little bitch?
>>97318114Lack of quality, bloat, franchise slop...
>>97318125Nuh uh, Slavethon the soul raper is raping souls on the other side of the universe. Can't just take breaks like that while evil is eviling, and there's always another Evilus the flesh raker to stop.
>>97318150finish your sentence or I'll finish in your waifu.
>>97318114Yes. Also they make authors retarded by making them put in shitty things nobody asked for, like hidden options and the latest retardation, minigames.
>>97318114yes, but not only that, they are soulless slop made and consumed by lazy people
>>97318114They're often poorly coded and prone to bugs despite it being so simple. They change the layout and pacing of image CYOA. Also, the interactive exclusive CYOA are poorly made and feature lots of bloat and poor decisions like NSFW sections to choose height weight and dick size while penalizing you in points + by the time you get 40% through one some bug happens and the entire webpage shits the bed and needs to be reloaded.They're shit, in other words. The exclusive OCs are also shit.
>>97318172>minigamesLink? I haven't seen that yet.
I understand now. Thank you for the explanations!
>>97318035Why would you?Such a question could only be conceived out of naïvety. To ask such a question... the only conclusion that I can reach... is that your understanding of the thread must be nonexistent.Tell me, would you allow a plague to enter your village, knowing full well that it would lead to the death of your neighbors? Family, those whom you hold dear? Unless you truly are a fool, you would not. A threat to your livelihood should not be ignored. It most certainly should not be shown even a single iota of mercy.Doing so would be dangerous, and dare I say, even selfish.Anons are not creatures worthy of our compassion.
>>97318172>minigames.WTF?
>>97318060>>97317887
>>97318169We're not sharing a setting dipshit
>>97318150>He's raping her... and then he'll rape me next! OH MY GOOOOOOO
>>97318225Which is why anon is INVADING you. Keep up.
>>97318236
>>97318236Using a sartre supplement isn't valid so i don't care.
>>97318236> Keep up.Dispatch reference ???!!!?!?!
>>97318202Here you go.https://mamick.neocities.org/system/cyoaIt's an update of an old one. After some complaints on reddit the author put a button there that gives you average score, as if that's somehow making it fair, before you were forced to play them. Also they are drawbacks, you need to both play the minigame and pay the price of the drawback for the points. They are just below the difficulty section, called difficulty modifiers, I don't know if there are more later.I played all 4 to see what they are, the answer is shit.
There are some interactives I like better than Outer Reincarnation and Magi Case.
>>97318209This is true, I'm anon and am continuously scheming about how to inflict rape, murder, slavery, torture, and usury on everyone and everything I can reach.
Why would notorious hacker anonymous Anonymous say and do such conflicting things?
>>97318271I'm glad to hear that.
>>97318225Then explain why you're waifu is currently pregnant with my bab?
>>97318035Every anon will tell you not to do it "Because it's a shit idea"Anons are retarded.This idea has been done before. The CYOA was called Nemesis and it was loved by the thread.>"If I'd asked the customer what he wanted, he would tell me he wants a faster horse" - Henry Ford, Automobile Giant.

>>97318275Hey, same. We should plan to inflict all those things together. Where you at right now, anon?
>>97318440Says the retard who couldn't make a build stronger than a fucking companion. I'll never take your schizobabble seriously ever again.
>>97318464I can't tell you, because then there's a possibility you could rape, murder, torture, enslave, and give me a high-interest loan.

>>97318607I'm making an interactive, yes, but a good one. Statics can't contain my artistic vision anymore. Among other things, I need to use the interactive format to fulfill a very important ~5 year old prophecy.
>>97318635>StaticsYou disgust me.
>>97318635>I need to use the interactive format
>>97318648It's an important prophecy. Only my burning passion to fulfill it is what ultimately drove me to pick up my pen and begin creating CYOAs once more.
>>97318654
>>97318664That comes later, hopefully. First, finishing this CYOA.
>>97318440>retard filtered by basic morality
>>97318648Harahel was good. Except that like most nsfw cyoas, it would've been better without the nsfw parts. In Harahel, those parts were also lolsorandom zaniness, breaking the chill adventure mood of the normal options.
>>97318699>Except that like most nsfw cyoas, it would've been better without the nsfw partsI have this problem with a lot of CYOAs with NSFW content. I wish authors weren't retarded and gave an isolated point pool for NSFW stuff at least (so I could ignore it altogether)
As a Racist, which race is best?
>>97318699>Harahel was good.It's a shame the author went full retard with the game for it. He decided to go 3D instead of 2D like everyone was telling him(3d takes exponentially more effort and is infinitely harder to not make look like shit) and now he's multiple years into a dev with very little to show for it.

Any good rome themed cyoas?
back when /cyoag/ had SOVL...
>>97318719Human, obviously. What kind of question is that?
>>97318736
>>97318699If it gives any confidence at all in the (fully SFW) interactive CYOA I'm making, I enjoyed Harahel a fair bit as well
>>97318733Are you playing on Easy?
>>97318739Here. I have at least one more>>97318746No - realistic
>>97318679>filtered by a dickhead author who ruined an otherwise decent cyoahere, fixed
>>97318758
>>97318735Anon wants the NSFW elements but values his own power/influence/quality of life over his lust, so he prioritizes it when forced to choose, when anon is playing NSFW cyoa because he wants to indulge his lust.
>>97318740Aromage will bring back the soul.
>>97318764
>>97318739Only loosely
>>97318742Humans don't excel at anything, they're just average at everything and outcompeted by specialists.
>>97318777
>>97318779btw if this is humans in your setting youre a dogshit writer
>>97318780
>>97318784
>>97318786
>>97318794
>>97318798
>>97318783I agree, but was talking about the cyoa. Humans don't have a niche outside of being good enough at every non-bestial niche.
>>97317119>>97317173Reddit...
>>97318739This kind of bizarre one by Surinical
>>97318779>they're just average at everything and outcompeted by specialists.In a setting where multiple races exist, for humans to not have gone extinct they would have to excel at something at least. Play on the endurance we are actually known for in the animal kingdom, at least.
>>97318839
>>97318762>waaaa the author is such a meanie dickhead for telling me my bad faith retardation is retarded
>>97318840The cyoa does mention human endurance under the beastman race section.
>>97318739Not specific but probably the best one for an actual Roman setting. I don't know of any others that just plop you down in ancient Rome
>>97318860
>>97318864
>>97318866
>>97318872
>>97318847>waaaahere little one, now go to bed and keep crying
>>97318719hybrids cause they can be anything each person wants them to be kekin seriousness doe probably either dragons cause strength, angels if you go elitism, or automatons cause versatility as automatons can be whatever shape you want them to be and can do whatever you want them topersonal answer doe lizardmen will always be supreme but thats a heavily biased answeranyways is it still a shopping list build if i do have reasonings for all my picks but just didnt put them down cause i either dont want you to read them or cause the comment sizes are too small or smth
>>97318852Oh. Well, reading >>97318804 as well, humans are the best ones yeah. Just think about it, you can excel in something, but then they could just do a good-enough job at whatever you suck at fighting against. While you excel in woodsmithing or plant shit, they'll excel in technology, medical care to treat infection, etc etc. You'll need two excelling races to be able to properly combat humans, so if you pair humans with two excelling races, you have a dough that fills in niches that the others cannot.
>>97318739I'm making one inspired by Rome and classical Greece.
Anons tend to pick magic options in favor of endurance or agility and the like (because they think they're smart (they're wrong)). It doesn't help that most CYOAs don't explain how magic works so everyone assumes it's basically "point at a mundane guy and he dies". How would you balance magic options with something like, say, peak human strength and durability or extremely good skill? More importantly, how would you write magic to make sure no retard would think it's an instant "I win" button?
>>97318739>female
>>97318719If we exclude humans, automatons for industrial, creator build or merpeople for underwater, primordial turtling build.
>>97318906If you throw a fireball that can shatter a castle gate, no amount of human strength or durability can compete. Either allow for superhuman physicality or weaken magic to compensate.
>>97318906Introduce a counterbalance. Technology, perchance.
>>97318906>so everyone assumes it's basically "point at a mundane guy and he dies"nobody thinks this, are you the Physicsfag? you sound like that retard
>>97318906replace magic with guns and artillery, if you cant balance your melee and whatnot classes or loadouts against that then you cant against mages who can do even more like altering the terrain or making an army appear out of thin air
>>97318719Humans of course, though dwarfs are a close second
>>97318944clarification on my own post, its not that i think magic should be an instant i win button and always the strongest option or whatever, personally id really like it if knights and martial artists and whatnot are able to compete pretty well against them, especially as i tend to really like the heavy armored knight conceptwhat i am saying is that magic and mages in many cases is rather comparable to an artillery squadron or even a battalion depending on various things, and just like irl, such things rather quickly become king of the battlefield without some kind of superhuman physicality or smth to compete with themim not accounting for air raid bombings or naval artillery or what have you cause thats more comparable to stuff like large scale ritual magic or the use of magic airships and whatnot, which usually require many people working together to build and get running, rather than regular magic which only needs the one dude, usually
>>97318860Sexiest altering history goddess build coming through!
>>97318999Anon... armies of soldiers with personal weapons weren't replaced by armies consisting only of artillerymen.
>>97319064well yes but were talking about balancing physicality against mages that act like artillery, yes you need regular soliders in order to capture and hold territory and occasionally you can find soldiers being able to deal with artillery encampments, but usually you dont find singular mages running in and taking a fort(unless theyre like invulnerable or smth) usually they have minions do that, but lets put it this way, a single soldier is very unlikely to be able to take on an entire artillery battalion especially starting from the artilleries preffered range, its comparable to the soldier versus the mage, so essentially figure out what the soldier or whatever would need to take down an artillery battalion, and youll start to get an idea of whats needed to make the soldier comparable to the mage, yes im counting stuff like magic kryptonite in there cause it can kinda work like if you jam the radios of the artillery and can mess with their rangefinders and whatnot, kinda, not exact but nothing ever is
Rolled 18 (1d25)>>97318719The best race is clearly...
>>97319125Vampires. Heh. Looks like I need to make a build.
>>97319088(In this case, the "artillery batallion" is compressed to the body of a single person, so there's no extra bodies to win in a scuffle etc <- I assume that's what you meant)If on one side you have a soldier with an assault rifle, and on the other side an artilleryman who somehow operates a howitzer alone, then - I am no military buff but wouldn't the guy with the rifle win? A howitzer is obviously not meant for that. Doubly so if it has only one shot, as in your example (where the wizard can only blow up castle gates, and then he's finished for the fight).
>>97316460It definitely alludes to souls having an afterlife in some of the options. I don’t remember a specific mention of heaven for the paladin.
>>97316516> Your mind, body, spirit, and powers are truly and utterly immutable by any and all means, even those of unstoppable godlike cosmic forces incomprehensible to the human mind.I’m going to say no, unless there’s WoG that says otherwise

does anyone know the name of that one historical cyoa where you have to help a doomed battle win? a handful of pages long, i think the background was dark blue color
Why would anyone want to play the role of a Hero in a cape world? I just don't get it.
>>97319302Lost Causes, black background but I think it's exactly what you where talking about.https://imgchest.com/p/dl7pkp96yox
>>97319305Uhhhh because the bad guys always lose.Isn't that obvious Mr Chud?Have you seen the movies?
>>97319335He may be advocating for being neutral and minding your own business. If the whole world is capes then someone else will save the day, or something like that.
>>97319305you can steal the money of the bad guys when you kill them, earning money and cleaning up the streets at the same time, that's why."But heroes don't kill" that is the stupidest concept ever and makes no sense.
>>97319302https://imgchest.com/p/9ryd2wmdw4k
>>97319356Heroes don't kill because they aren't the justice system you dumb 'igger.A cop doesn't blow your faggot brain out just because you resist or backtalk him.
>>97319363>A cop doesn't blow your faggot brain out just because you resist or backtalk him.They do it in the hood.
>>97319363Niggers don't have superpowers thoughbeit
>>97319363Do you even know how the no killing rule started?The no killing rule started because comic book companies needed a villain of the week, and they found out that if you get rid of your villain every other week it actually makes it pretty expensive to hire character designers to make another villain. that's why the no killing rule exist, so they can do reprints of the same villain.This is where it's going to be really funny to me.If you get your semblance of like morality from comic book characters and you think the no killing rule is actually something that you should be taking seriously, I just wanted to let you know your moral compass is influenced by a fucking corporation running out of characters.
>>97319305Heroes exist in cape worlds because they have convictions and sufficient belief in their capacity to achieve them. Far and few inbetween, of course. This is acknowledged by a lot of cape settings having a hero/villain ratio sided towards the villains, who in turn don't receive support from society and governments as a whole.
>>97319356I prefer the explanation that heroes don't kill because they want to look sympathetical to normal people. If you kill someone, and it turns out you were actually wrong in doing so, then it'll fuck things up astronomically for you because:1. Now you're an element they need to keep under control (for their image if not public safety)2. It tarnishes the image of every other capetard who cares out there (the ones who don't are probably lunatics)3. You're now in the shitlist of said capetards because you couldn't keep your edgy little impulses under control.The only thing that can keep a capefaggot in check, is another capefaggot.

>>97319505>If you kill someone, and it turns out you were actually wrong in doing sohow often does that actually happen tho? if a supervillain is openly hostile to civilians and everyone knows who he is and what he is doing a classic comic hero would just subdue him, and the will find a way to escape and eventually terrorize the people once again, if i was a citizen i would just want the hero to annihilate the problems once and for all
>>97319575>if a supervillain is openly hostile to civilians and everyone knows who he is and what he is doing Therein lies the key difference: everyone knows the circumstances and what he should be held accountable for. And that's why you don't go on a mass crime-killing spree like a retard playing a first person shooter. You very well could kill a supervillain doing some pesky shit, and it turns out to be a teenager with a kill count of exactly 0.

>>97319356>>97319363>>97319505my favorite reason for no killing is something like in super minion where villains and heroes try to not kill each other to prevent an all out superpowered war, deaths from both sides still happen from time to time but anyone who goes full murder hobbo in the name of justice/villainy inevitably ends up making too many enemies and gets killed/assassinated

>>97320017Nta, some artists draw females like that. It's a bit like the art Aromage keeps finding of women that look like men, just instead of the face it's the rest of the body in this case. I don't know the character so I can't say for sure, it could just as well be a pretty boy that looks like a girl, shoujo mangas are full of those.
>>97320017don't worry anon, its the same thing when a japanese artists draw a flat chested female characters and call it a trap adding a penis to it.this is basically a man but the artist added fat on the chest and a pussy, so that homosexuals will feel better about themselves and will be like: "haha i totally like muscular women, its totally different than liking men and being gay"

>>97319305How else will an exhibitionist running around in their underwear be praised by the public???
>>97319305>Why woud anyone want to play the role of Superman in a Superman world?You may never know.
It's simple. If there's no ANIME, I'm NOT playing!
It's simple. If there are CHOICES and ADVENTURES, I'm not playing!
>>97321654I look like this and say this
>>97319305Realistically if people started randomly getting superpowers one day, there would be no heroes or villains. The world will descend into chaos until either the supers get subdued/exterminated or the supers tear down the old order and crown themselves as the new one as monarchs and warlords.
>>97321962Most new cape settings have the superhero stuff happening after a warlord era
>>97317717Will there be immortality in it?
>>97321988Immortality is a classic superpower dumbass.
>>97321988I prefer the "just become immortal yourself" approach, but I know some anons are going to choose super strength or something instead of a power that can make them immortal, so I guess there's a reason to give it out for free/let them pay for it.
>>97321972Even when a new status quo is reached there still wouldn't be villains and heroes in the classic sense. Why would you need to rob a bank when you are automatically part of 1% simply by virtue of being a super? why would you need to stop robbers alone when you have the whole police and army under your control? Only the most unfortunate supers with the shittiest and most useless abilities will resort to something as ineffective as vigilantism/petty crime.
>>97320108ive seen men with longer hair than any woman besides rapunzel before in media, ive also seen men irl with hair just as long as a womans, and ive of course seen women both irl and in media with short or even buzzed looking hair, hair is whatever you want it to be no matter your gender, long hair can be nice, sometimes, but its a bitch to take care of properly and can get in the way or some suchoh by the way ive also seen instances of female budhists who completely shave their heads cause budhism, so thats a thing
>>97322041>I prefer the "just become immortal yourself" approachHow many superheroes in fiction have attained immortality by themselves? Mister Sinister? Anyone else?
>>97322058>SuperheroesDepends on the specific run desu, a lot of them are capable of becoming immortal but that's not the story their company wants to tell>SupervillainsA lot, sometimes they lose it later, sometimes the company just forgets about it, but it sometimes happens
>>97322068The super scientists and magicians can probably become immortal if they wanted to, and if they did try something bad would probably happen because Western storytelling is still stuck on "seeking immortality is bad" and "Immortality is a curse, actually." However, it's entirely within their capability. Whether anyone else can depends on their powers; some have it for free, some could probably do it if they wanted to, and others are stuck asking other people to make them immortal.
>>97322058i mean, its kinda twofold here, usually stuff like immortality gets used as a means to have some kind of moral lesson about something like how it usually is with raz al ghul, however if you actually go through the various things in comics youll find there are probably a bunch of ways to attain some form of immortality without needing to worry about much, just spitballin here but one villain became able to rewrite genetics on the fly and this could be used to make people biologically immortal or to cure cancer or smth but instead they use it to turn people into dinosaurs, theres also like actual magic that one could feasibly learn that could maybe do it with the right preparations and enough effort, theres high technology all over the place that can be used for all kinds of things, infact theres an ironman story where tony starts using some of that to make a subscription service for being pretty or hot (yes tony was becoming a villain in this arc but eh)theres feasibly a bunch of ways you could maybe achieve some form of immortality so long as you dont become a villain and dont let yourself become the moral story of the week, so long as you know whats going on in the setting youre doing the cape stuff in, same with how there are some things you definitely want to avoid in various cape settings like kryptonite exposure in dc, while the stuff can weaken kryptonians like superman if youre exposed to it for too long it can apparently give you cancer as thats what happened to lex luthor once iirc
>>97322058All popular heroes/villains are immortal in a narrative sense. Batman has been in the prime of his life since the 40s for example.
>>97322149technically theres batman beyond which is set in the future and has batman as like really old so a new character has to come in and take up the mantle and be trained to do so by the old bruce wayne, apparently the series was pretty good and well received by batman fans, especially how rather than just reskins of batmans old villains they tried making a bunch of new villains insteadsome of batmans old villains do still make cameo's doe like bane or raz al ghul
>>97322103>dont let yourself become the moral story of the weekYou're asking for the impossible, please remember that you're speaking to an anon
>>97322068Care to name a few supervillains that attained immortality? Because the only one I can think of is Mister Sinister.
>>97322041You could have immortality an option in exchange for making you infertile. That way cape children won't be growing up in nightmarish psychotic villain families unless they get kidnapped.Heroes would have extra motivation then to stop villains, because the sickest of them always try to groom harems of loyal empowered wives out of their daughters. Imagine the shitfest that would happen if there was multiplayer option as well...
>>97322188Raz until the story doesn't want him toLex could do it but that's not the story the company wants to tellDoom could do it but that's not the story the company wants to tellStegron could do it but like anon said here >>97322103 he wants to turn people into dinosaurs insteadThe only thing that makes Sinister special there is that he wasn't used as a moral lesson/it was included in his backstory so it was slightly harder for the writers to just ignore it later
>>97322188nta but theres a few even i know like raz and mordred and some others, the thing here is usually it ends up being that they get stripped of their immortality in some way so they can be defeated by the hero or atleast turned into the moral story of the week, or it turns into a story of this person trying to maintain a failing immortality and how it makes them into a villain like with raz who spoilers ||even ended up basically killing his own daughter just to get to live a little longer||
>>97322240welp thats not how you do spoilers i guess
>>97322243[Spoiler]There are many ways to screw up spoilers, including using plural or capitalizing, if I didn't capitalize the first tag it would have worked.[/spoiler]
>>97322248Just press Ctrl+S after selecting the text, newfag-kun
>>97322265Anon I literally explained in that post that the tags would have worked if I did it differently. As in I was trying to fuck it up to make an example. That said I was trying to include a functional spoiler in the post too, but it got fucked because of one of the more arcane rules. As an example using capitalized tags to get it to not delete itself,[Spoiler] if I didn't capitalize the first tag it would have worked.[/Spoiler][/Spoiler]
>>97322045>Why would you need even more money when you are automatically part of 1%just look at irl billionaires lolvillains would do anything for a few million morebanks would have to store tons of physical paper money again due to mad genius super villains easily stealing electronic currenciesbanks would be built to delay super thieves for as long as possible until the superheroes backed by the wealthy showed up
>>97322216>Lex could do it but that's not the story the company wants to tell>Doom could do it but that's not the story the company wants to tellI doubt it. There are multiple instances in DC and Marvel where heroes from the far future travel back in time, and vice versa, with no one having cracked the immortality question. If Lex, Doom, and people in the future can't make themselves immortal, it would be arrogant to think that you could gain immortality on your own in their settings.>>97322216>>97322240>Ra's al GhulRaz is not immortal his Lazarus pits extend life, but not indefinitely.>MordredHe did not attain immortality by himself, it was his mother who cast a spell to make him eternally young.
>>97322312>If Lex, Doom, and people in the future can't make themselves immortal, it would be arrogant to think that you could gain immortality on your own in their settings.Read the second part of thatMarvel scientists have created actual portals to afterlives and both of them have accomplished much more impressive feats than simple biological immortality. The reason they don't become immortal is that their companies don't want to write those stories, so they just don't try. Unlike anons, most fictional characters aren't obsessed with becoming immortal, and most of those who are get used as a moral lesson because "seeking Immortality is bad" and "Immortality is a Curse"
>>97322058>How many superheroes in fiction have attained immortality by themselves? Mister Sinister? Anyone else?Does Mister Sinister really count? His power is genetic manipulation, so his immortality comes from his power and isn't something he attained himself. But if Mister Sinister counts, then I guess Elixir also counts. He has biokenisis, so it was really easy for him to gain immortality from his power.
Isn't Vandal Savage immortal? I think that's the only thing he has going for him superpowers-wise anyway
>>97322365We were still going off >>97322058>attained immortality by themselves?Pretty sure Vandal Savage lucked into his immortality in most continuities
>>97322058There are tons of superheroes and supervillains with immortality/eternal youth, but there are barely a handful who attained their immortality by their own efforts and not as part of their own power.
>>97322342>"Immortality is a Curse"Curious how this (mostly)only applies when it's a mortal that becomes immortal, it tends to not be brought up as much around natural immortalsIt's almost always a skill issue too, unless the immortality just sucks ass
I think Harbinger should be the OP for next thread.
>>97322393If only there was a way for you to assure that exactly that will be the case... if only...
>>97322393Harbinger is nice. The only issue with it is the existance of magic and inventing.
>>97322408No, the real issues are the points and stats.
>>97322402Too much effort.
>>97322409I like the point system
