The Trail [Scottish Anon]
https://desuarchive.org/tg/thread/97475036/#97477770
Sat 31 Jan 2026 20:12:12

An anon previously spoke of a cyoa of the year, however I think it would be difficult to recall dates of more then 6 months past, as of such I intend to run 12 smaller polls and one bigger one at the end of the year
If there are any categories you would like added, let me know, and if there are any suggestions you have toward the running of polls like these, do tell
I am only counting cyoa's posted by their original author on 4chan.org as OC. If authorhood is unclear, I will guess
If I missed any, then that's terribly embarrassing
But also you should tell me
I think I'll repost this for the next 1ish threads

I would actually really like a third category, because then we could call it a "Triple crown" and "Triple crown" is a Rad title for any type of competition
Please suggest a good third category, Ideally one with less hassle then buildcount or similar

Say you're going on an adventure with a beastly companion. Think Amaterasu from Ōkami or Wolf Link. What kind of beast appeals the most?

Top left: Basically just a normal wolf, or tiger, or whatever. Not fantastical at all and pretty boring...but easy to relate to? Easy to slot into the already-existing "beast companion" dynamic?
Top right: A little more fantastical but still normal-ish
Bottom left: Weird. But interesting? Fresh and new, but hard to imagine in that Wolf Link/Amaterasu role?
Bottom right: Not even mammalian-looking. I think I like this design the best, but I also have to acknowledge that it looks the least like a "beast friend" archetype
>>
>>97513804
I think I'll be calling it about an hour after the start of the next thread
What would be a good starting time for next month? I think 4 reposts was too much and I'd like to have a discrete window I can use
Maybe 4th-7th?
>>
>>97513814
Top Left.
Fantastical and weird is good, but I have "real" companions for that. For an animal companion I'd want something more grounded, to remind myself of the real and simple interactions I left behind.
>>
>>97513814
Normal wolf
It fits going on an adventure more to have something I actually like, and something that is reliable and understandable
Wolf>>>>>>>>Dragon>Lightning wolf thing> Humanoid wolf thing
>>
>>97513814
For the love of god, please pick something other than a canine, feline, equine, or any of the typical "companion" animals. That alone will make the choice much more compelling. I would tend to prefer something like top right that has a slight mystical quality, but I don't really like that particular image. What this guy >>97513822
says is surprising to me. I'd rather have ordinary human companions and a fantastic beast than the other way around
>>
>>97513815
You should put however much effort in you'd like to, but I don't think 4 reposts is excessive at all. It seems like a good portion of our population only checks in every week or two, so you'll get a better sample size and hopefully avoid it being skewed by superfans

What do you think about a whole species speaking in weaboo?
Would you be able to take them seriously?
Would it break your immersion?
For example:
>Aniki, forgive me... Arthur betrayed you, and I could not stop him. Everything went according to his keikakku...

>>97513847
Part of the difficulty is finding pictures of interesting and fresh fantasy monster characters. Most fanart for most series is focused on the humans. Monster Hunter (which is where all 4 of those characters are coincidentally from) is one of the only series besides, say, Pokemon that has a good variety of fanart of non-humanoids

At the very least I'd prefer something more felid than canid, if only due to my dislike of dogs
>>
>>97513814
This is the wrong example because I like Nargacuga way more than I like Mizutsune but I would prefer bottom right as a concept. Something strange and cool. I don't like companions in general, other than maybe waifus if made well, so to convince me to get one you need to sell me on it. It being ridable and/or flying is pretty much a requirement.
>>97513847
>For the love of god, please pick something other than a canine, feline, equine, or any of the typical "companion" animals.
What's even left then? Reptiles and birds? Bugs? I would really like some cool snake or strange bug actually but as long as they are a cool enough variation I don't mind a more classic animal. Like a Kurama style kitsune, or a manticore or other chimera like creature. I would be fine with most of the MH monsters that are on the larger side.
>>
>>97513876
>if only due to my dislike of dogs
Same. Nta, MH has a lot of very cool designs, so going with any one of those would be really cool. Especially the Frontier ZZ ones, those are incredible.
>>
>>97513866
I say yametekudastop.
>>
>>97513866
I don't see a problem with it, there are worse languages. There are some cool ways to justify it too if you feel the need to go that far but I don't think it's even needed. Them speaking funny should not get in the way of taking seriously the meaning of what they say if needed.
>>
>>97513866
Is this the new retarded shitpost format?
>>
>>97513880
Every other animal that isn't some type of dog, cat, or horse. What kind of question is that? There are tons of other choices even if you stick to mammals. I do agree about interesting variations, whether that's a "magic dog" essentially or just a more unusual species of "dog" like a dingo. I would still rather see some really off-the-wall stuff, though
>>97513876
That makes sense!
>>
>>97513866
Stupid.
No.
Yes.

No real person speaks like that. If you want to have japanese for whatever reason, you can have japanese text with an english translation right after.
>>
>>97513880
>>97513891
I should probably specify that I have almost no MH knowledge whatsoever. These 4 were the result of a few hours of searching "monster no_humans -original" and banging my head against the wall. I'll probably just search for "monster_hunter no_humans" from here out since basically no other series is contributing anything
>>
>>97513927
Or, more likely, english text with a japanese translation right before to give the illusion of english being the translation.

"Japanese" is supposed to be their first language the random words in japanese are meant to be a stand in for an accent so instead of
>Hallo my friendu, howu are yu?
You get
>Ohayo my friend, how are you?
>>
>>97513847
What's wrong about adventuring with a loyal dog...?
>>
>>97513947
The events were slightly unclear, however whenever Tok's cyoas were in the archive, it got copyright strikes, and Tok made a demand for his cyoas to be removed from it. We don't know if it was Tok making copyright claims, or someone else targeting Tok's cyoas. I'm only 80% sure of this assessment of events, as I don't actually care that much.
>>
>>97513866
Funny.
Gods no. I'd try for their sakes with all my heart though.
Not really. It's yet another recognizable trope in my isekai fantasy.
>>
>>97513964
Phonetically written accents are a shit. A SHIT!
>>
>>97513964
Have an accent then, instead of a travesty of language.
>>
>>97513866
No? It's like when people write all dwarves as those macho blacksmiths all about honor and grudes and MUH ANCESTORS.
>>
>>97513974
I want to disagree, but I have a deep southern accent and whenever I try to write it phonetically, it comes across as retarded.
>>
>>97513978 (me)
I meant "no, it wouldn't break my immersion" but I wasn't clear enough.
>>
>>97513967
Nothing at all. I enjoy the usual suspects when they're well done, but I think it's a shame that there aren't more examples of animal companions like boars, grasshoppers, crocodiles. I'm not implying those things can or should eclipse something like a dog or horse
>>
Rake status?

>>97513997
aroused.
>>
>>97513993
I have trouble imagining a scenario where Anon, adventurer extraordinary, is followed by a boars. Or a crocodiles. Well, maybe the crocodile if it's in Nouvelle Orleans, but it's a stretch.
Besides the fact they're less evident in general (ex: we've been fed "post-apocalyptic trek with doggy" for decades), it's also a problem of mobility for some. The horse? The dog/wolf? Yeah, they'd escape. The cat is fine, too. Something without legs or short ones or just slow like a turtle might not make it, and those kinds of situations are common for adventures.

I'm surprised the Starwars one has done as well as it has considering the big hitters it's contending with.

>>97513815
You're doing well as is.
>>
>>97514012
Well yeah, in most cases it would assume that there's some kind of magic, extenuating circumstances, or just suspension of disbelief involved, but there are other domestic animals that could fill the same roles in a pinch too if you want to stick to those for realism. The above three things are features of most CYOAs, though, and the original anon was already soliciting input on how overtly magical the animal should be. I'm just trying to say that there are a ton of cool animals that could be explored to really make that CYOA stand out. Some of my favorite works (like Book of the New Sun) shine in that department. It can really enliven something that is otherwise business as usual

The pay is crap, ofcourse, but the perks go a long way in making it worthwhile. The goal with them and the co-workers is to try and provide as much protection and comfort as possible. Considering switching out Elijah (afraid his plans will get me killed) for Miguel, Maria or Sophie. Maria because she a cute, Sophie because she might be able to offer protection and Miguel because he seems like a nice guy. Main reason I probably won't go with Miguel is because I see him dying very horribly, very easily.

As for the threats, I'm hoping I can just hide from or ignore most of them.

Are we supposed to have multiple choices available to us or is it going to be just one creature that you need a lot of images for? Either way Monster Hunter is a good choice, I always liked the variety of designs and the fact they go from grounded to more fantastic. Just don't use Fatalis, thats just a normal dragon even if it's FZZ version is really cool.

In what sense? They all require a modicum of effort to work.
As >>97515331 said Divine Trascendence hs the comfy potential but you have to work for it, you need to actually build a comfy legend. False Wizardry is pretty comfy if you get both all the perks for it and the territory bonus since you have a whole 2 minds dedicated to advancing it for you. But the real ultimate comfy is a combination of the Comfort Upgrade, the Stellar Pacts Territory bonus, False Wizardry capstone power with maxed Stellar Pacts and a bit of Divine Trascendence to make gathering pacts easier. Use Metamagic on the Comfort upgrade and the Pacts territory bonus to ramp them up, make some pacts in your moon to get a good baseline of energy and powers, then just fuck off into your unbreachable and completely customizable personal world. Optionally take some of the companions with you to help, Forgotten Tower is made for the worldbuilding and Lonely Goddess is also a good choice.

I don't think it's an outright shitpost, its higher tier CYOAs are on average better than lower tier. But very unreliably, there's many weird calls. Gras Praada is rated High but Royal Revival is rated Shit, why? IMO they're pretty similar, in style and substance.

You are hitting close to home. I don't even believe it to begin with. There are just as many parasitical men as there are women. I guess... if I'm being honest... The truth is? I just wanted to fit in, and saying mean and hurtful things to women helps me fit in. I will resolve my crippling insecurity by talking to a woman and getting a date. Even though I may fail the first few times I am sure to succeed eventually. Once I find genuine love I will be able to put this dark and sad tale behind me, and perceive the world afresh, in a way that is honoring to my mother and my eventual new wife.

Thank you, Anon. I will wish for your success as you have done for me.

It's not an inherent contradiction.
The reason why women are like they are is because they are biologically wired to want resources for their children the problem is that as women have less and less children they don't actually accomplish this function and just hoard money for themselves yet tend to end up feeling alone because the ultimate function of those resources would have been to the benefit of their non existent children.

The elemental fusion CYOA is on the backburner for now, as I'm busy IRL with trying to earn a degree and it turned out to be too ambitious for me to execute well, at my current level of skill. Whichever idea I roll will be my focus for the foreseeable future, and I will buckle down and try to release it sometime in the next couple of months.

Hmm... this was the least developed of the ideas I've had, but in some ways, also the least difficult to tackle. I think you'll have a choice of a few busted abilities, then a more modular set of techniques to augment or influence your choice. The rest of that will be lore, the various dangers you are up against, and your own choice of how to approach the world you're in. Probably a few rumours filling the same niche as quests usually do, and a mystery box for what rewards pursuing them will get, maybe. The world itself won't be generic, I do have a vaguely solid idea of a bizarre dreamscape that's been beaten into submission by an alien industrial empire that is now crumbling, but the specifics on that remain to be seen.

I should clarify, by alien I meant from a foreign dimension, rather than ayy lmaos. The setting won't have many sci-fi elements, if any. The original founders will most likely be elves or something similar- at the height of civility and grace yet blind to their own shortcomings. I always have been a big fan of the Mos Eisley bazaar-type scenarios, so I almost certainly will have some weird stuff going on in addition to more usual fantasy elements.

>>97516527
>>97516528
>>97516537

I'm pretty enthusiastic for the idea, and feel galvanized now that chance has set me on a specific path and thereby excised the indecision. I hope you anons enjoy the CYOA when I am done with it, and with that, I will stop namefagging. Although if anybody has any questions on this or my past work, or requests on things they would or wouldn't like to see, I'll be happy to answer them. I can't make any promises aside from that this will release, but I like to engage with anons. For the record, I do agree the first version of Icescape was far better, formatting-wise. I wasn't sure how else to increase the font-size without disrupting the structure I was going for. In the future, I think I'll trend a little more towards vertical top-down structures, instead of the more horizontal look I went for with it.

The most wizardly traditions made use of the gods, anon. High ceremonial magicks incorporated the gods. Theurgia was ‘the divine science of god-working’. To contact the gods, the godhead, etc, was seen as the greatest and grandest magic source. It tied into mysticism—that of confronting the ineffable. Confronting God.

— Theurgy (from Greek theos "god" and ergon "work") is literally understood as "divine working," "god-work," or "the science of divine works". Originating in the 2nd century CE among Neoplatonists, it represents a form of "high magic" or sacred ritual aimed at uniting the human soul with the divine, distinct from Goetia (sorcery or lower magic).

See, while Theurgia attempts to uplift, or transcend the self, to raise it higher into higher spiritual echelons, Goeteia is the opposite, seeking out lower, materialistic gains and rewards. Most typical sorcery. Gnostics shun and abhor the materialist world, seeking to escape it entirely, while Goetic sorcerers embrace its setting as a form of advantage. Hermetic magicians in comparison do appreciate the world in its material form, but seek divine union to go along with it, nonetheless. To appreciate it a lot better. It’s Art. Gnostics don’t see it that way. Gnostics see it as a trap. A trap can still be art, however, as even a prison will have architecture to it.

How were these scored? Writing quality? Concept? Replayability? Impact on the cyoa community?

As is, I don't see any consistency. Holdfast was nowhere near finished when the author disappeared, yet it's rated as "god tier". Tok might be toxic as hell, but Nemesis practically pioneered the pvp genre (and would we have Isekai Bounty Hunter without it?) Stardust was (arguably) the first "true" cyoa", but it's lower than Small Town Hero (which is decent, but not ScottishAnon's best work). Lavender is an interesting concept, but little more than a character builder...

The Allsync? Nothing that I'm aware of. The archive? That gets messy . .


We used to have our cyoa archive on mega.nz, which is why AllsyncAnon is sometimes called MegaMan. We were there for years, until parties unknown started reporting the archive to mega.nz for copyright infringement. And rather than investigate, the company just deleted the whole thing.

There was no proof that Tok was involved, but he and AllsyncAnon/MegaMan were (coincidentally?) in the middle of an argument over archiving Tok's CYOAs. Tok was also going through a particularly toxic phase at the time, so once he was accused of it, there were a lot of people ready to believe the worst.

Sounds like you are part of a nice family. I'm doing well, just started some malt vinegar today. The last couple weeks have been pretty crafty! I've made sheets of paper, distilled essential oil, felted wool, set up a new compost pile, and some other stuff interspersed with my day job. We hardly ever get snow here; I don't think it's gotten below 30 or 40F in recent days. I'm sure it would get old like anything, but shoveling snow, chopping wood, and other such winter tasks have always seemed kind of fun to me.

Just two very minor cyoas, and one (posted) WIP. What can I say? I'm very vulnerable to scope creep, and getting in over my head.

For example, one that I started working on was a vampire murder mystery. (You) would wake up as a newly turned vampire, with no idea what happened, and the choices (you) made would retroactively determine who made (you) into one. Ultimayely, I got stuck on vampire houses/factions (you) could join and werewolf flunkies (you) could recruit.

(The /trash thread has a one pager on a vaguely similar idea, and it made a big impression on me.)

>I would think someone who has your knowledge of the general would probably turn out something good
I like history, and understanding why things are the way they are. A couple of my past jobs encouraged those traits, and voila! Here I am.

(Which really, really annoys some of my more partisan relatives.)
>>
>>97517593
Give it another try! I like the idea you mentioned, and I would be interested to see your work in general if you want to share. At any rate, I'm glad we have at least one resident historian, and especially a friendly one who is excited to inform people here rather than some strange gatekeeper. I'm pretty amazed at some of the facts and timelines you call up seemingly from nowhere. Do you write these things down, go back to confirm them, or just remember it all?

Had a curse that made her undying but it was removed. Angry and violent, would need constant wrangling and cause legal problems.

No powers or skills beside etiquette. Depressive, inferiority complex. Most normal of the 4 by far. Easily integrateable to our society.

Had heroic powers, but nothing useful now. More pertinently, she's a near-vegetable. I'm suspicious of the moral character of an anon who would want to "care" for a near-vegetable with no external benefit.

None of them are whores tho? All of them are hevily implied to be virgins, only Sela is arguable but from context you can tell that the monsters are the killing and maiming type and not the raping kind.

All women are whores, anon. It's by default due to their innate instinct to breed.
>>
>>97517804
Honestly in this edition they all look like different intensities of the same problem. Lily has the same problem as Annen but worse, Cornelia is slightly better than Annen but the problem is still the same, stifled emotions and agency. Sela seems different on the surface but the core problem is the same, stifled emotions that she had to suppress and limited agency that manifetsed as having a goal she had to pursue instead of not being allowed to do anything like the other 3, the way to cope is different but the illness is the same.
>>
>>97517681
By the way, there are another 3 chapters? Versions? Different sets by the same author. It's also unfortunate that the name of this series is the same as a really bad nsfw cyoa too.

I think I really want to make my beast companion some kind of lion/tiger/other big cat, which Monster Hunter unfortunately doesn't have, I think. On the table right now are Dromarch from Xenoblade (unfortunately doesn't have much art on his own or even art where I can viably crop out the other characters), the Winged Lion from Dungeon Meshi (not a lot of art on his own and in a normal quadrupedal beast-looking form...), and Derpy from K-pop Demon Hunters (...surprisingly actually fits well, with a good mix of being fluffy and friend-shaped but also looking somewhat intimidating and combat-capable. Still not that many good images, but more than the other two)

Anyone have any other fictional lions/tigers/etc to throw in? Preferably with some sort of standout physical feature, while still having a mostly-grounded design

A lot of it is memory (been here since 2018 or so), reinforced by trips to the thread archives (when I have time, I go looking for old cyoas and forgotten lore tidbits). That's why you'll rarely see me mention exact dates - it's a lot easier to remember why people started arguing than when :)

Even if you're not planning on going for those pathways, then you're missing out on the benefits for whatever pathway you're planning to go for. It's probably manageable, but unless you're offered some crazy stuff, the other scenarios are probably better.

As much as there have been men and women greater than us in history many infact probably most such better men and women go unremembered or barely remembered at all for one reason or another
And many of the men we do remember and revere as being better than us were just ordinary dudes who got really lucky with the dice rolls like alexander who cheated death an absurd number of times just by pure chance not because he was better than anyone
Humanity is quite complicated and so is the world that we live in all one can do really is try and navigate it as best you can and help those they can along the way and no one will probably ever know the measure of someone until theyre already dead whether they be greater or lesser
Life is nebulous, death is certainty, you can only measure the certain and not the nebulous
>>
>>97519923
>Death is a certainty
Only for very specific definitions of death
>>
>>97519935
I meant that death is certainty meaning you cant really measure someone till theyre dead
While theyre alive anything could happen they could become a saint or a devil they could cure cancer or give cancer to everyone you never know until theyre dead what the measure of their life will be

Granted yes this ignores stuff like religion and going to heaven and all that but we have no knowledge of such things so we cant use it as a measure of them also alot of sed religions technically have you just not die just change into something else like a spirit or a buddha or smth idk
Death is death there is no after if youre in heaven or whatever youre technically not dead is how i look at it

Its just selection bias, the longer ago somebody was the more interesting they would have to be to remain known now.

>>
>>97519964
Adding more words to your CYOA does not make it more interesting or intelligent.

Black magic is a fundamentally boring CYOA because its effectively a single choice set with minimal context to interactive with using it. Its interesting as a study of different magical traditions but that same verisimilitude makes it uninteresting as a system and setting.
>>
>>97519522
I agree with you. Exalted Conquest is a sequel to Entropist in the same way a painting of a tree-line hugging a riverbank is a sequel to a painting of the river itself. It's a different perspective of the same setting rather than its own thing. I don't think that's a bad thing though, I personally like varied perspectives. It's like using different lenses to see what messages you can get out of the same wall.

Why are the most uniquely creative authors such lazy fucking assholes? They never finish a thing. This is one of the most aesthetic cyoa concepts I’ve come across and yet it’s probably just sitting there rotting away. When was the last time black magic received an update? Like five years ago?

It’s the same with Liminal phrenic; they’re always dumping highly interesting WIPs and never a real finished product. Their ideas rarely go anywhere. Like their Alice in Wonderland horror cyoa. It’s been a WIP for like forever.

And with that, the january best of poll has concluded
Our winners are:
Radiant (Single Vote)
And
The Trail (Preference voting)
Congratulations to our most honored winners

(A cyoa is allowed to win more then one, but the preference poll has 1-3 ghost votes in it, and when accounting for those the trail has more points)
>>
>>97522259
How do you notice ghost votes in polls? I've never hosted one so I don't know what it looks like. Isn't it all anonymous?
>>
>>97522300
At one point I was counting the votes, and it's pretty noticeable when someone votes 6543210. One of the people who did this changed their vote back but I presume another didn't based on the fact runaway didn't drop points (And it is extremely unlikely that someone genuinely placed runaway at 3)
Also, on the back end, I can see that radiant has gotten 2 more votes in the preference then the single, where the single is a less voted bracket and no other entry has more in preference then singular
