>>97345920This hadn't been posted since 2023.
post highly obscure cyoas only

>>97345920>What is your screen width? 2560 pixels. When you get a 27" monitor you can't ever go back>What do you think are typical screen widths that authors should expect, as of present day?Depends. I think you could make do with 1600 pixels, depending. 1920 should be the absolute maximum IMO. What you should've asked is what's the proper font size for CYOAs.

>>97345955Only sometimes? I'm pretty sure he would be classified as clinically insane in many countries.
>>97346055I only think about him sometimes, anon.

>>97346097Me too. Always enjoy me a dark fantasy CYOA played straight
>>97346109
>>97346118
>>97346066I almost never think about him, but when I do I am always worried.
>>97345946Deep cut
>>97345955I was wondering if I was being trolled or the author was borderline retarded. Good to know it's the latter.
>>97346125
>>97346135
>>97346139
>>97346134You really don't know Cyrus? That one is tame compared to some other stuff. Look at Cerulean Dream, S.H.I.N.E. and Spooky Dream Waifu to see the real retardation. It goes way beyond borderline.

>>97346152Has anyone been doing checks on build legality?
>>97346009Go kick rocks. We need way more CYOAs with hand-drawn art. I think this may be the only one I've seen that is actually photos or scans of pencil on paper

>>97346158I sure hope not for the hypothetical checker. What a time wasting thing to do in such a convoluted cyoa. It's already hell to make a build. Checking every build? Insanity.
>>97346160>I think this may be the only one I've seen that is actually photos or scans of pencil on paperThere are a couple more. One is from reddit and it's for tranny OCs.

>>97346152I made it to the Drawbacks, but I just can't force myself to slog through anymore. Same way i felt with the previous one.
>>97346200Damn anon, you almost made it to the end. just one more push with the companions and you were done.
>>97346200It doesn't get betterDo or don't I suppose
What program has raster effects like those seen in ultimate Grimoire? The font is aliased in a way that doesn't happen in MS Paint as far as I've checked.
>>97346160but it's ugly and immersion breaking
>>97346009I like it more as it isArt is about emotion. Filling in the bits between the details is irrelevantIf you would rather ai to that you may as well use real life
>>97346215I did read them, I just didn't pick any because somehow none of them grabbed me. Unlike with the Masquerade cyoa, oddly. Sylen's cyoas are just a lot of mixing and matching with no real flavor and in the end I'm not really satisfied with my build anyway.
>>97346263The witcher one had a fair amount of flavorOther then the nsfw dlc thing it was pretty good
>>97346223I disagree because it's complete as is. Using AI now would be akin to vandalizing the cyoa.
>>97346263>I just didn't pick any because somehow none of them grabbed meThe restrictions for alignment >>97346263ure don't help. I think I'm going to make my build backwards, I will start with what I want and see what options I need to get there.
>>97346317What the hell happened here? I didn't put that post link there.
Is posting big CYOAs bad when people are still discussing the latest OC?Should I refrain from doing so in the future?
>>97346337No, don't let the shitposters tell you otherwise. The thread can talk about multiple things at the same time. Unless it's anime high school, that one is a dick move regardless of discussion.
>>97346337No, people will just discuss both concurrently. Post whenever.
>>97346337It's fine
>>97346351>>97346352>>97346356This goes for OC too by the way.

A little choked by Corporate Rule, but otherwise a pretty exciting kitchen-sink world, there’s everything from extraterrestrial droids to otherworldly demons. Despite an Alien Physiology, bodyplan is still indistinguishable from a human’s, aside from when Natural Weapons are deployed. Merged power lets my Natural Weapons adapt to become the best possible tool to the situation. Aside from the Material Weakness, pretty much practically immortal for all intents and purposes. Obviously pretty screwed by being a Big Corp Asset, but that’s a problem to solved in due time.
>>97346376Got one too many Super powers
>>97346432Sylen is a retard for putting a limit to those by the way.
>>97346523What even is the point of the limit?
>>97346539Being a no-fun retard.
>>97346523Disagree, that was ok imo.
>>97346539How do you even reach it? I feel like you need to pick Armageddon, One Level Above, then Greater Exchange. At that point who cares?
>>97346523The limit is fairly easy to reach if you count major minor and super powers completely separately (As in literally 7 minor or 4 major, not letting you sub in spots from above)Doing so it so stupid however that I would sartre it out even if wog confirmed it
>>97346553Greater Exchange doesn't count. To reach the limit on super, you must pick Armageddon, One Level Above, and Avatar/Universal, which means it is impossible to reach the limit without gimping yourself with Uncontrollable and being a slave or Unpredictable. Going beyond the limit means you are a slave and must have Uncontrollable, Unpredictable, and Chaotic Conduit, which is so terrible that I don't see why the limit exists at all. You're better off within the limit than beyond it even in a hypothetical scenario where the limit doesn't exist. The limit has no reason for existence.
>>97346601Almost forgot, Object can also reach the limit.
>>97346601>Greater Exchange doesn't countWhen sylen said:>Exchanged power sources do not count towards your maximumI am fairly certain he meant>Power choices spent on exchanges do not count towards your maximumMeaning those gained would count and those lost wouldn't
>>97346635That is also how I interpreted it
Thoughts on My Hero Academia? Thoughts on its CYOAs? Thoughts on one where you can plot how to navigate through canon events to change outcomes and romance any one girl in your 1A or 1B class?
cyoa for this feel?
>>97346662That assumes a very specific interest in MHA which most of us surely do not possess
>>97346662>Thoughts on My Hero Academia?None.>Thoughts on its CYOAs?Picrel is decent. All the others I've seen have been bad.>Thoughts on one where you can plot how to navigate through canon events to change outcomes and romance any one girl in your 1A or 1B class?Uninterested.https://imgchest.com/p/9p4njna3lyn

>>97346662>Thoughts on My Hero Academia?Mostly negative, though I don't think it is the worst capeshit out there>Thoughts on its CYOAs?Uninteresting.>Thoughts on one where you can plot how to navigate through canon events to change outcomes and romance any one girl in your 1A or 1B class?I don't care for any of the characters, though fucking with the plot could be amusing if I could do something like become a secret post game boss, it isn't something I am interested enough in.
>>97346662I think the anime is fundamentally poorly writtenDeku as a protaganist is wonky. He starts off with a clash between his circumstances and his ideals, being that he has no powersThis is a defining trait of his character and who he is as a personThe plot then waits until the literal exact moment he decides to work within his limitations and try to embody the ideals of a hero without relying on power he does not have, and then gives him the strongest powers of anyoneIt is not only negative character growth, it weakens his entire beingHis story unironically resolves to: If you feel talentless, pray you get luckyOther characters explicitly are stronger then he is without his quirk, he does literally nothing without itThe rest of the anime is similarly poor. I think I stopped around season 6 but I can hardly remember most of itNo one is ever encouraged to use their talents where they would be useful, everyone is a shit hero or flat villainI remember hearing about the ending having all of the asshole heroes get away scot free because none of it meant anythingBeing passive is a bad thing>Thoughts on it's cyoa's?I think the one that uses the powerlisting website is moderately interesting, although that has been done before and will be done again>Thoughts on- RomanceAnon, either you know how to speak to a girl or you don't, trying to hallucinate lucky breaks is giving up on the actual work that goes into a relationshipDoubt people. Examine their emotions. Take nothing at face valueHumans have a peculiar habit of loving better what they understand
>>97346662Early chapters were fun but the series suffered from a lot of bad planning on the author's part. Part of that is that the powers scaled like shit. The protagonist got a power destined to be too strong for the setting and the support of a flawless hero institution, so the villains ended up getting a silly amount of powerups to compensate, then heroes got more asspulls, deku got spiderman's powerset for some reason, and so on. Then the author realized another issue of character bloat and tried to keep all his low power characters relevant by giving the weaklings a lot of spotlight.So the CYOAs are stuck with a power scaling problem that even the author couldn't handle.Jupiter's version >>97346722 does the best thing you can do with the setting by letting you remove the main plot entirely.

They even comment on the things you pick.More cyoa's need to do this with their companions.

>>97343674That's very kind of you anon, I'm glad you connected with my work. I look fondly on the period of my life that I spent making it.
If you want anons to really think about picking powers, just replace points with a meter. It's easy to minmax your build when you just have to spend abstract currency. It's really hard to justify being greedy with powers if every power you choose fills your Feminisation meter. I mean, sure, you CAN pick the most optimal and overpowered combo, but is it worth it if you become a futanari with no way to turn back?
>>97347264You have aids
>>97347264You are describing the perfect cyoa.
