>>98589797>Tok>Takes Tok Option
Hey wodan hows that /h/ thread going?
>>98589819What did you expect? You thought I would just gloss over it and pass up on one of the best options?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1qeqf8zyfA
>>98589853
>>98589837It is a joke option made because the author knew you would be the only one to pick it

>>98589831Stopped posting there when I went to paris but maybe I should start again.
>>98589860Nta. I almost did, it has some uses. But in the end some of its effects are covered by other perks while others are stuff that can be useful situationally and can be done with other means so wasting a perk on that isn't worth it. I'm sure most of its effects can be replicated by dark magic, and that they are already being monetized by the corpos too so you can just buy them.
>>98590046Eye for talent is the objectively the best rulership method because why would I need to be a good general or administrator if I can just get competent people to do it for me
>>98590069Sure but it lackes the chest hair of the other methods
>>98590069The Rabbit clan is objectively the best clan coz I get nukes to insta kill any enemies

>>98590046It will NEVER work. Half of those idiots in /trash/ are too fucking dumb to migrate, and the other half refuse to because they are filthy furfags. Just give up and let them wither and die. The future for the NSFW CYOAs community lies in the hands of Reddit, Cyoa.cafe and the korean board, whatever its name was.
>>98590088Madam Orochi is objectevly the best companion coz she gives you immortality and superpowers any unit you want to an insane degree(sybil is good for horse archers and ur bloodline too)>>98590084Yes
>>98590111Yokus also alright too and Miko has to be killed
>>98590125
I had a dream about an urban fantasy cyoa with a large and verbose magic system, but it was basically the magic schools you'd see from other works of fantasy, just buried under mountains of pretentious text. It really pissed me off.
>>98590233Despite the self-deprecating context of this reply I realized that I only have one option that could be considered a "magic school" in the usual sense because I thoroughly dislike app store magic. But that's probably something your imaginary CYOA writer would also say.
>>98590233Too much text is the worst.
>>98590327None of the discords should be below C-tier.
>>98590233So an Italics cyoa? Never liked having nightmares.
>>98590327>reddit>S-ranking>above spacebattlesGoeth back, you must.
>>98590111>Madam Orochi is objectevly the best companion coz she gives you immortality Ageless*And she is unsuable unless you have manipulator and Silver Tongue or Miko. People will riot against you eventually like with the snake clan>and superpowers any unit you want to an insane degree(sybil is good for horse archers and ur bloodline too)at the cost of killing 40% of them. Which is bad if your build needs numbers like if you took the earth kingdom
>>98590331The discords are where they belong
>>98590111>coz she gives you immortalityTok, you reveal yourself at last...
>>98590111>sybil is good for horse archers and ur bloodline too>good for horse>horseI can see right through you, Tok
Post cyoas that rarely get posted on /cyoag/.

>>98590496
>>98590502
>>98590496Does this have immortality?
>>98590505Yes and no. It's implied that if you keep using the forms you will become ageless at least, and probably ascend to godhood. You will also slowly turn into a monster/part of the god you are using the forms of and after a certain treshold you are declared a target for execution. So technically you can be immortal, but it puts a massive target on your back and possibly results in identity death.The identity death issue can be solved by either going with the safe choice of Aria, since that doesn't turn into a monster, or attempt the big gamble, take Eclectic and ascend into an independent god. The target issue can't really be solved unless you change the laws of the world, so either live on the run, isolated, or stage a revolution.
>>98590521>take Eclectic and ascend into an independent godThat's a thing?!
>>98590425Cool cyoa. I'm not sure what your incentive is to not choose your old companions. You get four instead of three, and they all seem pretty good.Path: WarriorAttack: 3Defense: 10Health: 6Fellowship: 3Martial: 4Skill: 3Leadership: 4Abilities:Enhanced DamageProtection (Martial)Enhanced DefenseImproved DefenseProtection (Skill)BackstabTrap/LocksHealthy LivingMentorKey Word: Frontline FighterTeam LeaderHeritage: HumanParty:MageFighterRogueClericQuest 1Attack from Below!

>>98590541It's a gamble. Using the other forms turns you into a monster because you are taking in too much divinity from one god, which turns you into a servant and potential vessel for revival. But with eclectic you don't take in divinity from just one god but all of them, balancing it out and turning it into neutral divinity, which you may learn to shape with time maybe even making your own form. Or, you know, you go mad because of all the conflicting energies in you, equally as likely. That's why it's a gamble, a very dangerous one.
>>98589831>>98590046>>98590095All Tok btw.
>>98590233I never understood what the point of this cyoa was. The best option is predator, but stuff like caged and scavenger are so retarded that you have no reason to take them. Meanwhile, tyrant is just predator, but you have the option to kill more people if you want? Like what? What compels me to play this cyoa, and what compels me to want to take something like tyrant who just kills people for fucking clothing or minor trinkets lmao.
>>98590705Sometimes you just get dealt an evil hand like >>98590489
>>98589672Is it wrong to want another 20-page Wizard/Mage CYOA?

QOTD to aspiring authors:Does a consistent artwork and aesthetic, as certain members of this community have insisted, affect the quality of the CYOA or are those matters essentially not important and that it is instead primarily the actual mechanics as well as possible build depth and variety that defines the quality of a CYOA?
>>98591173Whenever I've tried interactive cyoas, the inconsistent art common there often bothers me. Meanwhile, LO mixed up photos, anime art and paintings all the time and it didn't bother me. Honestly it's difficult to compress this into a criterion.
>>98591173Consistent artwork/aesthetics are useful but matter less than consistent feel. Bright anime art and dark anime art will clash much more than, say, dark anime art and a photograph of a deserted bridge taken around midnight.>>98591202I think it is a matter of taste.
>>98590400opening that image felt like getting flashbanged the blue is so fucking bright
>cyoa allows you to choose the settinghonestly I don't like this, I feel like it should first present the world and then you build based on that. otherwise it's just a contextless power picker with no adventure
>>98591173Ironically many of the cyoas with highly consistent artwork are aesthetically awful.
>>98591241>Bright anime art and dark anime art will clash much more than, say, dark anime art and a photograph of a deserted bridge taken around midnight.Agree>>98591202 (me)Thinking of it more I specifically dislike combining character art with no background (which then looks like concept art - the character exists in a vacuum) vs character art with background (the character is within a scene).
>>98591173>Does a consistent artwork and aesthetic, as certain members of this community have insisted, affect the quality of the CYOAOf course. However, you should also distinguish options visually. This allows for some leeway, and every time you go for that you must counterbalance it. If you want neon colors, you better add pure black to go with them.
>>98590493An actual /d/ cyoa.
>>98589797Why did Tok's image build get deleted? I saw no naked parts.
>>98591457I assume it's because he posts his build in every thread, and somebody reported it for spam or offtopic (multiplayer).I like seeing people posting their builds, but I don't think I reread them so I guess it's a fair judgment.
I've been playing a lot of Dead Rising lately, so I'm in a zombie mood. Although I hate OP zombies that are way more powerful than the average human (cough cough Isekai The End).
>>98591509
>>98591511
>>98591513
>>98591509It's difficult to maintain a balance, where zombies are not superhuman, but also don't become irrelevant once the first day of crisis is over.
Wondering if I'm still randomly rangebanned.
>>98591528The solution to that is easy. Make the zombies into a single bestial collective that can temporarily adapt to the level of threat/food abundance it encounters, like locust. The adaptation doesn't have to take the form of superhuman strength and speed it could also be survival and stealth based (Zombies that tunnel underground, zombies that camouflage, zombies that fly, etc...). This will make the apocalypse extremely hellish at first but become gradually more manageable as humans become more scattered and weak.
>Me when I take multiple showers a day because that's when all my good cyoa ideas come to me (I took too many)
>>98591730Btw I thought of making a robocop cyoa since it seemed like a cool setting but I decided against it. All our authors are zoomers so I'm not gonna get my hopes up anyone makes it.
>>98591730You take multiple showers a day. I take one shower a month. We are opposites you and I.
>>98591777
>>98591777does anybody have a guide for how you could reasonably maximise your points without irrevocably ruining your life?
>>98590773No. It's an appealing idea with a lot of potential for both classics and creative versions dealing with more obscure facets of it.
>>98591777Holy shit. I've officially become so normalfag that I can no longer get many points from any of these options.

>>98591671I don't like it.1. "Zombies that tunnel underground, zombies that camouflage, zombies that fly, etc..." doesn't feel like zombies. Part of the appeal of zombies is that a zombie is not far removed from a demented and diseased human (lepers x medieval Black Death era plague carriers), it fits right into a modern setting without turning it into urban fantasy.2. The rubberbanding feels videogamey.

>>98591173I like to use pictures with the same aesthetics as much as i can. A good picture lets your imagination run wild and lets you write a better description for each choices or story and lets you imagine the world through that picture and how it would interact with the other elements of your cyoa.Though finding thematic picture with the same aesthetic is very time consuming and i simply do not have that much free time. I sometimes carefully try to incorporate ai art into my cyoa. I like the ones where you cannot tell that it is ai unless i tell you.
>>98592381why are there so many typos and just missing letters in general in that cyoa?

>>98592381https://pastebin.com/mc8814HNMy old S tier build, now with an image. Idea is to use a combination of Witchcraft and Healing to perform ritual sacrifices and then undo them, and eventually invent a new form of magic based on blessings instead of curses.
>>98591284Still don't get what does it mean for me to have control over a singularity.
>>98592613Because it's a lot of words and Italics probably doesn't proofread his works.
>>98592613That's soul. Grammatically & lexically correct cyoas are soulless. Correct English is like a blank canvas, errors are like a painting you draw on it.
