>>97676531
Will we get OC this thread?
>>97676551It has been foretold by some, but I remain weary
Post Danmachi
>>97676557Hello, Weary.
>>97676530>Considering Elspeth was able to hide the whole project from the governmentConsider that I didn't know she could do all that on the first read through(I played it fair and went to my scenario first) If I knew everything I do now, then yeah, going for godhood is obviously the play.Btw, I worded it terribly, I meant going in with only the information the player gets without metaknowledge
>>97676531>Thread Question: Spacefaring scifi vs non-spacefaring scifi, which is better?Spacefaring sci-fi 100%the alternative is always dystopia slop
>>97676551Who knows? This could be the thread [ANTICIPATED_OC] drops.
>>97675870>>97676436What do you thinks anons? Is now the time, or should we continue to wait for OC?
>>97676563Hey lover <3
>>97676604
>>97676604If we will, then no omega psiIt can't just be the league of dudes with omega psi>>97676531
>>97676608
>>97676446I would take it, I presumably signup for the program for a reason and 100 years is already plenty time for shit to go really wrong, might as well go all out.
>>97676609But then the npcs would be stronger than me :(
>>97676574On the first read I personally probably wouldn't even expect that society would collapse or if it did think of that then I would have thought thay everyone would just nuke themselves and die. But I would be quite optimistic and hoping to wake up into some high tech future. I guess worse case scenario a A.I. or something might have taken over. But immortality is definitely worth that risk as you would have had to deal with this stuff anyways or just be dead already.
>>97676609Ninmah can use Omega Psi only with plants. Assuming good faith, all anon builds could be like that too. Although, the actual build part of the builds would then be anemic.
>>97676648Like 2 of them?You could still out skill them, and you can develop stronger powers then the baseIf you only rely on what is given to you you will always be a jobber
>>97676609Then your probably going to get a league of dudes with metaflux.
>>97676667>Can only be used on people who are either helpless or willing
>>97676667That atleast gives 500 other years of build varietyAlso, I don't actually think so. It's just potentialmanning when you could just as easily ask someone else to transfer you the psi powers
>>97676674Metaflux+the voice there is a reason why you pick omega Psi to be immune to those two fucking powers.
>>97676684>full of trap options that instagank you if you don't know the settingHow is this fair?
>>97676696It was never ment to be fair, The game was rigged from the start
>ok fine but nobody can use Omega Psi>and Metaflux>oh and The Voice too
>>97676712No, just omega psiOther then that it's fine
>>97676667To be fair, I grabbed Metaflux to be the death god. It's by far the most appropriate power for the role.
>>97676726Wouldn't the incarnate protocol be more fitting for a death god? An undying ghostly specter, sounds very fitting for a death god.
If you don’t post Danmachi your father will troon out and become your mother
>>97676684I'm looking over some pathway rituals again and I have to ask, is the Seq 4 ritual for Door just impossible? You have to seal a hostile Seq 4 while not having any sealing powers yet. How exactly are you supposed to do that?
>>97676738You can look like a spooky ghost or you can put the dead to rest. Maybe work on being a spooky ghost over time as you pile up psychic power, but you can't exactly learn to harvest lost souls.
>>97676743Here you go.https://imgchest.com/p/na7konjjwy8
>>97676743Enough I will hear no more of this weeaboo nonsense
>>97676759Sealed artifacts. It is easy, if you are a nepobaby.
>>97676759You must leverage external force, items and allies beyond your level. The minimum is probably just using a s4 Door characteristic.
>>97676759Use Traveler's Door to make a way to the spirit world, have the S4 follow you, then Traveler's Door your way back. If the S4 can't leave the spirit world themselves they're trapped.
Ah, I see, you WANT your fathers to be your mothers!
>>97676760Do souls even exist? Incarnate protocol seems like the only thing that is a pure energy being, everyone else is meat or a nanoswarm I guess
>>97676770You can only bring others with you if they're touching you though. A seq 4 would surely tear you to shreds in the time it takes to pull off a stunt like that.
The soul is just the conscious self awarenesswhat are you, stupid or something?
>>97676770I'm fairly certain all demigods can more or less travel in the spirit world.
>>97676776I will tell people they do and harvest them for power and parts. Metaflux also explicitly mentions the ability to barter life-force, which has nebulous relation to lifespan. I assume that if you combine it with Open Mind you can harvest corpses and put brain ghosts in a repository somewhere.

While you're sitting on your ass for centuries other pathways are advancing, making allies and getting all the good resources.

God I love Gil
Is the author of Ultimate Grimoire still active?I appreciate the good work he has done.
>>97677040Get help, or pick a namefag thats actually still alive.
>>97677045He couldn't handle the heat
>>97677039>need at least an angel helper or itemIt's normal, almost every pathway needs something like that.
>>97677048Isn't them being dead the point?If they were here, the posts would be about gil, but because they aren't the posts are meta textual shitpostsIt wouldn't be nearly as egotistical if gil were real
>>97676827I'm coming to think now the entire concept was bad.>>97676841I agree now, 2h would've been better.

>>97677244
>>97677213>sefirot decides to just mindrape you insteadSince they're not sealed it's not like they need you for anything, so them granting a boon is unlikely unless an option in the cyoa forces it

As long as I avoid the big dogs I should be fine.Edited to take the 4x CE/Low CE combo since apparently that's meant to work for some reason? Also gave my CT a name.
>>97677256>unless an option in the cyoa forces itYou can't advance your sequence beyond 9 at the start of In Modern Day, and boons definitely count. Only professional begging can get you the boon you need.

>>97677293Nice to hearThe mix-up of the first person we meet only adds texture to the adventure. Perhaps an opportunistic companion, or an isolating yandere. Something like that.

>>97677309I vividly remember the guy who started the rumor, he used a jjk meme with "that's how tok thinks" caption . He got pissed at the author for a variety of reasons related to cyoas mechanics and accused him of being tok at the end of his post. This caused anons to go into full psychosis and start tearing into each other. The general became genuinely unbearable for a while because everyone started accusing everyone of being tok. The moment you say something positive about the author or the cyoa you got branded as tok samefagging. If you defend yourself it was proof you were tok. If you didn't it was also proof. It was a bloody witch hunt, one of the most vicious anti-author campaigns ever witnessed. To this day anons like>>97677193 still won't tell you why they hate that author, because they themselves don't know. They are still experiencing the effects of the spontaneous collective derangement syndrome of that time. All because some poor guy decided to stingy with points in his cyoa.
>>97677374Shut up, Tokie patootie.>>97677368Realistically it will swallow the hype of the others CYOAs in its package. Unless Magi Case is there, in which case, it's either at second place or a tie-in.
>>97677374>I vividly remember the guy who started the rumor, he used a jjk meme with "that's how tok thinks" caption .A variant of this image?
>>97677374The PCA gambit really mindbroke this place huh? kek what a based guy.
>>97677229I wouldn't be suprised if Tok made Ultimate Grimoire, it looks like one of his.
>>97677403Yes exactly that one.
>>97677306Why assume that the automatic response to a prayer is to grant it and not to ignore it?Chaos Sea and Sefirah Castle might be asleep with their respective Pillars, but there's no way you're getting a boon from them that the Pillar didn't authorize. If sleeping Pillars are granting you boons, it's part of a scheme to wake up early. Don't fall for it.Knowledge Moor, Key of Light, and River of Eternal Darkness might be asleep since they were torn from the still asleep OC, or maybe not. Getting torn from the Oldest One sounds pretty traumatic. Remains to be seen.Nation of Disorder, City of Calamity, and Brood Hive definitely aren't asleep. They are damaged from getting torn in half, but not asleep.It still remains that none of them have any reason to grant boons. The last three would especially be averse, they need to conserve power to recover as quickly as possible and granting high level boons is a burden even to full GOOs.
>>97677413Were people really that invested into who the author of Spirit Conscript was?It's like obsessing over a film director instead of focusing on the franchise itself.
>>97677418>City of CalamityOops, I mean Tenebrous World. City of Calamity is in the middle group.
>>97676531I thought LotM wouldn't be ready for at least two years. Did /cyoag/ lie to me again?
>>97677417Given my tendency to make throwaway memes and play all sides, there is a non-zero chance it's me.
>>97677369CT: FireformTurns you into living flame for a massive power boost, but inevitably kills you 5 minutes after you activate it. This death cannot be prevented in any way and you cannot be ressurected.
>>97677418All the original 6 are split from the OC. The pillars are just stronger, not different.
>>97677427We've been reposting this very page for weeks. You're having hallucinations.
>>97677430Thanks, I'll use a binding vow to make it so it doesn't kill me in return for never being able to drink hot coffee.

>>97677190Own Levelling System 2 when?
>>97677366write a love letter while you're at it
>>97677438?
>>97677444...That's not a bad idea. The creative exercise will occupy my afternoon at least.
>>97677416Tok is a retarded narcissist that exposes the his deepest secrets and doxxes him regularly. I deeply doubt he can make an cyoa (a long one mind you) and not tell anyone about it. And its like its the first author to get inspiration from hin (Sylen). He didn't even brag or seethe about the meltdowns it caused after the dust have settled. That doesn't sound like the masochistok to me.
>>97677418They have their innate godhood instinct. As long as they are contacted in the right way, they will respond.
>>97677449they're using patrons to get stronger
>>97677422>Were people really that invested into who the author of Spirit Conscript was?No, no one actually cared. Everyone just thought it was some new talented author. The seething happened after PCA revealed it was him. He has a very vocal haters on here you see. They couldn't stand the fact that they got baited into liking one of his cyoas.
>>97677460Yes, it's a nepo party at all levelsYou play the part of a nepobaby until you eventually become strong enough to become a patron to others
>>97677438Boons are basically warlock-esque but the Paths are just slowly turning into Eldritch being by consuming aspects of the Original Creator and subsuming the lingering wills previous beings left inside the consumed parts.
>>97677436Just learn RCT and reverse fireform yourself back into a human. You are a sorcerer, aren't you? Not some kind of farmer?
>>97677429If it was you anon. I hope you get dick rot for the damages you caused to this place including the loss of a promising author.
>>97677467It's almost like CYOAs stand on their own merits or something.
>>97677441no
>>97677480Yeah good luck telling that to the reddicult npc brains over here. Their precious drama must be protected.

>>97676761How hard do you think it would be to convince Aki to give herself bigger boobs?
>>97677529gooner-sama...
>>97677501Just pick a side and pray for boons
>>97677493
>>97677536Boobs are good. Aki has small boobs. She needs bigger boobs.
>>97677501As long as we ascend to godhood and control them before they fully awaken, it will be fine.
>>97677493Can't you use Conclusion to cut off all the drawbacks in this CYOA, seems like the 2nd page is kinda knee capped by that.
>>97677545I wonder where this page is from. It's not in Savestate's folder on the Allsync, and my search in QQ didn't yield results. It's probably by someone else, since you can use Conclusion on itself which destroy the second page.
>>97677529As long as you agree to turn yourself into a futa and give yourself bigger boobs too an equivalent exchange
>>97677560Someone was very mad about the concept of a meta cyoa, so they tried to "Trick people" into believing the author had intended it as a trapThis is obviously retarded as a meta cyoa relys on sartre, and therefore everyone who uses one can use any part of one, no part of one, or make their own choices at will
>>97677560>no ending>no time progression
>>97677509>not even Tok loves himselfsad.
>>97677569Deal accepted. Futa are the superior sex after all.
>>97677578Metas are supposed to be add-ons. If they had endings and elaborate plots, it would supercedes the original CYOA too much.>but Anon, powers already destroy balanceTrust me, there is a difference between>Tee hee, I'm at Hogwarts but secretly a psionic! <3 and >CHASE operatives are getting bolder by the day. I need to capture the remaining Cognitve Shadows fast, else the interdimensional agents will extract information about Hogwart's exact location and it's game over for us.
Post hands
>>97677134...
>>97677545My favorite part of this "trap" is that even if it were real, nothing is stopping you from using the knife on this cyoa as well
>>97676551
>>97677625not relevant to whether the knife power that requires an ending or time progression works on the meta cyoa (that does not have those things)
>>97677659Flensing still exists
>>97677659go back to the basics and decide for yourself.
>>97677493If you were sent into a cyoa setting with only the stuff from this meta, which one would you pick?
>>97677684Nothing lolMiss me with that metashit
>>97677684I would take the knife and kill the cyoa providerThen pick a tok cyoaI would be willing to sacrifice myself thus
>>97677684Worm.The whole setting is balanced around the fact powers are sentient and follow hierarchy - I'm not burdened by that anymore.Alternatively, Witch Awakening to roleplay as the Doom Slayer and kill all witches.
>>97677684Outer Reincarnation. The Second Seat will really be all of us once every humanoid is on my mind link.
>>97677684Entropist. Time to kill the Prince for reals.
This one. It'd be the equivalent of having a jailbreak Oblivion Engine without the risk of ego death or the overly complex points system.
>>97677750It's an answer to >>97677684.
>>97677713>I'm not burdened by that anymore.The whole setting is relying on precogs to carry them to victory, which is only possible in the face of god's crippling depression. Isekai cheat codes are actually the worst thing to bring to the setting, because having a job to do might help him work through his issues.
>>97677805Use psychic bullshit to deepen Zion's depression, make him suicide, and enjoy your Ward-like world.
>>97677750Is joining the Orgystone worth it?
>>97677832>>97677536
>>97677832Are you familiar with the concept of eldritch bliss?
>>97676539final page
>>97677832>The Orgystone doesn't actually contain any souls, now. Instead, it now hosts the True Oblivion Engine, bloated with the psychic strength of tens of billions of people. It's stupid- mindless- but like water flowing downhill, it behaves in ways that trend towards the end of consciousness. Imprisoned, it can only reach out in very limited ways. Applied Psionics allow its whispers to meaningfully influence people and creatures. It's been influencing the cultural landscape of the City to make people more susceptible, using Animal Husbandry to corrupt and further diminish people who allow themselves to become as "base creatures", gathering monsters and madmen into armies that swarm against particularly effective opposition.>Your family has been digested. One of the maids managed to hide you well enough your mother was able to decide not to hunt you down.> All the souls in the Orgystone were digested. They didn't know that would happen! They were promised infinite pleasure, and heavily corrupted aside.I'm not going to seek all the WoG's, but no, it's not worth it, and if you're in its range you should start to run now.
>>97677891Nah, I'd win.
>>97677846I don't more than most of us. The notion of existential bliss is pretty appealing, as messy as it purports to be.>>97677871Somewhat, yeah. I want to detether myself from the rigors of thought but the Orgystone is most likely anything but.>>97677891That does not surprise me. Thank you for the answer, anon. If something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. The City seems like it has no hope. I don't know if the Orgystone being a false trap trying to assimilate everyone like a growing tumour is better or worse than it being a legitimate constructed afterlife that's been perverted beyond comprehension. The former is a pretty regular expectation, but the latter is an insidiously grotesque kind of horror, humanity turning against ourselves due to our human instincts finding a means of feeding back into themselves without boundaries to limit them. I like most of SaveState's stuff, it's weird in a way that doesn't dispense with crunch, when usually they don't intersect.
Anime slop settings fucking SUCKGive me some gritty dark fantasy western art cyoas like Peil kino
I don’t like Peil because Gil likes Peil >:(
>>97678137>gritty dark fantasy western art cyoasSo LOTM?
>>>/tv/218411290
>>97678211I agree with the first two.The last one can easily be done by Jedi with Beskar.
>>97678211What kind of retard would fall for that bait-
Ultimate god can be accurately described as "which job would you rather be forced work at for all eternity until you kill yourself"
>>97678235Ultimate IRL experience...!
>>97678235You only think that way because you are not ready to become a god.Another 10 million years reincarnating as a mortal will do you some good.
>>97678228Nope. Jedi would lose to irl guns.
>>97678235*forced to retire
>>97678292>Jedi would lose to irl guns-ACK!!!
>>97678235 Sounds more like Planeswalker Rising.
>>97678235Now that you mention it, it is kind of insane that new ultimate gods get asked "Which specific part of reality do you want to be bound to for the next trillion(trillion) years?" It's like a futuristic society taking a fetus at the instant the sperm and egg cells combine and asking it what career it wants to be born into to follow for the next five-hundred thousand years of its life with zero deeper context.
>>97678385Ultimate Gods don't actually choose what aspect they want, that's just part of the game mechanics.The aspect chooses the Ultimate God.
>>97676684>>97676696Okay so due to that comment I read a bunch of stuff about the setting. It seems the first page of the CYOA is upfront about the dangers.
>>97678451They do choose which of the four ultimate gods to worship however.
>>97678520What happens if none of the aspects align with me? Because I don't really agree with any of them.

>>97678554>discord simp shibbolethIf it's a character that's superior to a god, it is a god by definition.

>>97678720Inferno is on the same level and in the same position as the player, what do you mean?
>>97678723The player is a corporeal living being and not a fundamental. Inferno is both a corporeal living being and a fundamental. Don't lie about your own story.
>>97678734inferno, like skai and the ultima, and the ancient ones, is a personification of a fundamental concept. They're all fundamentals.

>>97677244It's weird that Lake Gosho gives so mnay points when nothing really happens there?
>>97678774THE COMPLETION OF THE CYOA IS NIGH! OC IS NIGH!
>>97678700Skai and the other primal forces can in fact do things to you, skai was even the reason why the lord is locked away, the meta is also literally described as omniscient and omnipotent. (You) are also beholden to the omniverse pact shit that you never agreed to and actively punishes and restricts you.

>>97677369> I'm just going to fuck off since my only concern afterwards is survival.You know that if Kenny wins you're going to die, right?
>>97679115Honestly depends on how you interpret this. I'm read it as if Kenny wins and his ritual has enough to start, the culling game is over.
>>97679124The Culling Games will only end when either all the players are dead or the good guys stop it.
>>97679129That was a rule Kenny literally makes sometimes into the Culling games.
>>97679143See chapter 145, this was there from the beginning.
>>97679143After further reading, this >>97679153 wasn't an actual rule and more just an inevitable consequence of all the players being dead. It wasn't until later that Kenjaku actually hardcoded it in. However that still doesn't actually help you, since the game is specifically designed to never end if Kenjaku doesn't do this.
Actually looking it over, you could seemingly get Tengen to bully Kogane into making whatever rules you want via threatening the purification barriers. This still requires Kenjaku to lose of course.
>>97677244Why is there no way to get RCT on others?
>>97679259Presumably they thought it would be too strong or they just didn't think of it.
>>97679259Just go for a healing CT.

>>97679295I also use firefox, and have ran into no such issues
>>97678865Did you even read the cyoa? Nowhere does it describe the Meta as omnipotent or omniscient, and skai did not lock the Lord away by herself, the only thing she could do was make an artifact and give it to the Ultima when they asked her for help.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAnoryONNWIIf you want to complain about any mistakes or insufficient information on the Blasphemy Slate or elsewhere, blame the fact that this whole thing was envisioned.To those who will dislike that the list of Partners is filled with OCs instead of actual established characters I will say that you still have two options. You can just find the character you want out in the world and recruit them manually. Or you could use the custom Partner option and simply state that said Partner is equivalent to the character you want – as long as they fit the allowed range of Sequences, it is valid.Also, here’s the imgchest link for easier reposting (does not contain the mystery box):https://imgchest.com/p/vj4j68jo9y8

>>97680988The two us ( >>97676446 and >>97676456 (me)) chose the 3rd timeframe, for the same reason (pods launched into space towards an alien planet can't be pillaged as easily as pods on Earth).

>>97680424neato
>>97681014I don't think the reason behind the choice makes much sense, since as already stated, that chick can do Reed Richard's tier science bullshit and can probably hide the pods for milenia, or make them nigh-invulnerable. But thank you for linking the posts.
>>97681020What talents you choose are probably more important than the aging events, and it depends on what pathways you're going for

>>97680988No. Nobody can stray from the One True Build.
>>97681056In the 1st timeframe, when you wake up, the police could've killed you, or taken you for their own experiments, or whatever else if they wanted.In the 2nd timeframe, you wake up in bumfuck nowhere surrounded by pseudo-medieval pigshit.It's not a carefully calibrated plan, she just hoped that a decent share of the spray and pray awakeners will end up surviving and making progeny, it's a chaotic mess, that's the whole vibe of PPPP.
>>97681114Yet, in all situations you wake up alive and well. Either way, if I didn't knew the results, I'd tend to believe she has some sort of Tzeentchian keikaku.My honest guess was that you'd wake up with her or alone in some sort of desolate space station or hellish planet and have to scavenge for shit and survive against whatever the hell was there, akin to Dead Space. The situation turned much better than expected.

>>97680248What mystery box?
>>97681374I realise I am contradicting my earlier statement that I had no further comment, but I am simply being fickle today (And yesterday)It's very difficult to actually write about tankista, because in everything he writes he just seems to be a chill reasonable guyThat's great and all, but it doesn't give much material for poetrySo then I need to talk about his work, which is easy, but that isn't what I was saying. It feels wrong to make a love poem soly about the actual work (Even though I mostly just respect his work and don't actually claim or assume to know or understand him as a person. Although in real life I do actually get really fond of people after they have shown some form of talent or skill, so I probably would like tankista. But it would still be wrong to unironically claim to be in love with someone I don't know, who is also almost certainly male.I'm rambling because I'm used to using poetry as a self expression and the actual meanings of my words in such a thing are almost always rambles condensedAnyway, yes, difficult. Some poems only take one sitting. would have been easier if this was just a fan letterOr dishonest but fuck that>>97677452This isn't meI have no idea who this is>>97680248OhWhat are the odds?This looks nice.

>>97680248Literally who setting by the slopauthor himself. Boring, wake me up when the redditfags have left.
>>97680248I feel bad ignoring anything this insanely high effort but the few perks and interesting options in this cyoa aren't even remotely worth navigating this labyrinth. I just wanna make choices, man.
>>97680248>ability for savants to make non mystical futuristic wonders was moved from s2 to s1Savantbros... we got nerfed...
>>97680248How powerful are the charms and amulets we buy?
>>97681496>seething already.Good riddance, see you next year bitch.
>>97681515I've never read a single CYOA by that author all the way through: the moment i open them and realize who made them it's immediately closed now. Something about their design makes me feel like I must have ADHD or something because I usually can't even manage a page before feeling like I need to do something else more interesting.
>>97681553>>97681515It's okay bros, big CYOAs aren't for everyone. Sometimes you want a few cliffnotes to daydream for the day, sometimes you need a Big Nigga to last an airplane ride.
>>97681553His other stuff shows he can definitely make playable cyoas. His worm cyoa especially is really straightforward and has tons of interesting powers and combinations to choose from.>>97681566To be clear, my issue isn't that it's long. My issue is the fact that you're spending the whole time solving a puzzle and none of the time making interesting choices. It's the same problem Platinum Age had.
>>97679909>Speaking of Magi Case. Has Italics ever explained how Magi Case's Masquerade system works? How do people not know that magic exists and mages and magical monsters are walking around? Two of the companions has a dog head for example. And a few others have animal.ears.Several reasons:1. Reason's anti-mages control the mundane governments, and actively suppress evidence of magic in an effort to weaken it.2. The mages not only have extensive tresspassers-will-be-shot real estate holdings, but they have their own continent.3. Multiple groups have mind altering magics that can screw with memories.So a masquerade is quite plausible. The media won't report on magical incidents, while social media leaks will be "revealed" as AI hoaxes. Mundane security precautions keep muggles away from magi holdings. And anyone who gets too curious will (literally) have their minds changed for them.
>>97681522>>If you want to complain about any mistakes or insufficient information on the Blasphemy Slate or elsewhere, blame the fact that this whole thing was envisioned.The BS slate is wrong

>>97681737Say your path, damn it.
>>97681888Twilight or Darkness.Most likely start at Twilight and will need to switch to Darkness S1 to avoid the Ritual from Twilight S1.
>>97680248I'm retarded. How does Convergence Events work? It says I can't pick events for the stated Sequences, so am I just supposed to roll a die for them?
>>97680248Can sefirot be selected for the Blessed perk In Modern Day?
>>97680248Yeah just from skimming I don't see any way to get around Sequence 0 being outright blocked for Moon, so it does seem like that path and the entire Origin its connected to a complete non-option. You'd basically be guaranteeing you'll never reach the highest level of ability. This sucks because I wanted to be a vampire over anything else.
>>97680248I don't really understand what it means by characteristic. To be honest, I don't really understand the power system at all. Despite your claims to the contrary, it seems that properly understanding it actually requires outside research.
>>97680248Can downstream protection or true god's seal be used to protect oneself from the corruption as a god of losing one's ego?When on the secret box does tier 0 means you lose all previous power?In magocratic convention is there something stopping me from giving magicians the abilities of conscripts and managate keepers to gain infinite mana?.
>>97681941You can't pick them in sequence 9, 3, and 2, take them in sequence 8-4.
>>97681926Optimally, you should go for s1 Twilight Giant, but if you insist on not... Inspired Correlation, Human Heart, Independent Node. These 3 are so good that most builds should have them. The last one flexible. Advancement Ingenuity is pretty good. is Endlessly Forking Road is better if you plan on switching more than once (I expect you to avoid s3 Twilight Giant if you're already avoiding its s1).
>>97681952You could convince the fourth pillar to kill mother goddess of depravity.
Danmachi doko
>>97681979From my understanding of the cyoa (and a little bit of wikidiving) it's a cultuvation system where you drink potions and do rituals to develop characteristing in a sequence, following a pathway, wich give you powers depending on sequence and pathway you're following.
>>97681952can't you achieve vampire then hop on a neighbor path
Lord of Mysteries reads like just some sort of not!isekai slop where the protag is unrealistically and unreasonably cool and awesome

>>97682050The original premise is literai an isekai premise, anon.
>>97682065No.
>>97682065>>97682068Thanks for proving me correct. Let me guess, the protagonist is le godlike and awesome? Cultivation slop is so gay. We had that shit too in the west, we simply grew out of it. The Chinese and the Japs have yet to grow out of it.
>>97682004I'm somewhat fine with the blessing of S3 Twilight, S1 Twilight need to swear an oath for the ritual and the ability while powerful is something you don't really want to use.Independent Node could maybe replace Endlessly Forking Road, depend just how much you can weaken/muddy the proxy authority.
>>97682050>>97682076>Lord of the Mysteries reads like>looks inside >Did not read Lord of the MysteriesMany such cases

>>97681979>don't really understand what it means by characteristic. To be honest, I don't really understand the power system at all. Despite your claims to the contrary, it seems that properly understanding it actually requires outside researchIt's just an awkward translation. In the Lord of the Mysteries setting, supernatural powers come from fragments of the Original Creator. The fragments a Beyonder (person with supernatural powers) are referred to as "Characteristic".So (you) can advance with a potion, putting together minor fragments to get a more advanced Characteristic. Or (you) can just absorb a Characteristic someone else assembled, either by killing them, or finding their corpse. (There's a hard limit on the number of high level Characteristics, though.)A "Uniqueness" is literally that - a Characteristic that is unique and irreplaceable. And it generally signifies the top rank of each Pathway. So, past a certain point, (you) will be in conflict with others in (your) Pathway.(Hence the occasional mention of "angels" - top tier Beyonders - killing their "god". Only room for one at the top, you know.)
Fuck off matterjeeta, we have OC on our hands. We do not have time for your slut theatrics today.
>>97682004>>97682083 (me)Going S1 Twilight might be for the best, if I want to go for Eternal Dakness, whatever oath I swear to the sefirot would probably be what I need to do to take control of it anyway.
>>97682232In that case, for the last talent, take Orthodox Integration along with the Blessed perk targeting the River of Eternal Darkness. This way, you have a straight path toward GOO.
>>97682114same reason why some brown girls talk shit about white people but only end up having white boyfriends
>>97680248And cyoa of the year has arrived. Good to see March is going to be better for OC than february.
>>97682251If going with Orthodox Integration, and giving up on Anomalous Imprint, I'm thinking Guiding Interest, Human Heart and Hand of Divinity, along with the High Priestess past card. That's 44 potion recipes, an eyes for talents and really high skills at making anchors through faith.
>>97682201Oh, okay, so I have to hunt down and eat my predecessors to take their place.
Matterslut is absolutely a Blatherer material. The only attentionwhore here who seems suited for Abyss.
>>97680248I was hoping to have at least watched the anime before this dropped but I guess I'll go in blind and just pick the coolest and most thematic options and just not care if anything I pick is a trap or suboptimal.
>>97682373It's wasteful to take so many options specialized for creating organizations In Modern Day. People will naturally flock to the powerful for protection. You should just strive to be as powerful as possible and only put a minimum amount of effort to delegating the management of your followers.
If events go as in canon, what is the comfiest/safest nation to hole up in?
>>97682405The anime speedruns everything and barely explains shit until the latter half, it wouldn’t help much.
>>97682409Having hordes of refugees on (your) doorstep is a lot different than having a well-trained and disciplined organization at (your) beck and call.
>>97680248How am I supposed to approach the form of the Apocalyptic Survivor origin? I might get to be an elf ("just hide your ears and you'll pass for a human" kind of elf?), or a dragon (big and powerful?), or a gross blob of cancer. It says this depends on how lucky I am, but I can't make a concrete build while leaving the form ambiguous.
>>97682475Get a companion or sealed artifact that can verify loyalties and delegate.
>>97682409Since Orthodox Integration take care of advancement I think focusing on making anchors and that those anchors create the images of yourself you want is really important, Human Heart is good by itself but supporting it with faith would be better,
>>97682494You're going to have to choose your own adventure.
Seer -> Clown -> Magician -> Faceless -> Marionettist -> Bizarro Sorcerer -> Mentor of Deceit (path hop) -> Trojan Horse Of Destiny -> Attendant of Mysteries (path hop)how viable is this? I'm looking at it from the perspective of easiest rituals. Fucking off for 300 years seems very annoying in most scenarios, and hopping from Bizarro Sorcerer (Fool) to Wanderer (Door) without the previous astral world abilities seems similarly annoying. Trojan Horse Of destiny also takes time but a normal human lifetime is way less than 300 years.Then for Attendant of Mysteries I'm assuming the Fool+Error fusion still lets me control a bunch of marionettes, so I can still build the town.
>>97682516You mean I should ignore the "it is far more likely you were turned into an eldritch monstrosity" part and just pick whatever I want?
