>I undertook great projects: I built houses for myself and planted vineyards. I made gardens and parks and planted all kinds of fruit trees in them. I made reservoirs to water groves of flourishing trees. I bought male and female slaves and had other slaves who were born in my house. I also owned more herds and flocks than anyone in Jerusalem before me. I amassed silver and gold for myself, and the treasure of kings and provinces. I acquired male and female singers, and a harem as well—the delights of a man's heart. I became greater by far than anyone in Jerusalem before me. In all this my wisdom stayed with me.>I denied myself nothing my eyes desired; I refused my heart no pleasure. My heart took delight in all my labor, and this was the reward for all my toil. Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind; nothing was gained under the sun.>Then I turned my thoughts to consider wisdom, and also madness and folly. What more can the king’s successor do than what has already been done? I saw that wisdom is better than folly, just as light is better than darkness. The wise have eyes in their heads, while the fool walks in the darkness; but I came to realize that the same fate overtakes them both.>Then I said to myself, "The fate of the fool will overtake me also. What then do I gain by being wise?" I said to myself, "This too is meaningless." For the wise, like the fool, will not be long remembered; the days have already come when both have been forgotten. Like the fool, the wise too must die!Reminder that unless a CYOA has an immortality option nothing in it matters.
Nothing in any cyoa matters by default regardless of immortality. As a cyoa is the lowest form of interactive media.
>>98634244Except who's mad? This idea that the cyoa cant be criticized or critiqued in any way with without being mad, obsessed, or it being a conspiracy of some kind is nonsense. Even if that other anon thinks its mediocre instead of the best cyoa of all time, so what?You've made up an entire story in your head in order to portray yourself as a victim while simultaneously clutching your pearls and pretending that youre above it. Entropist fanboys are such whiny little girls.
Still waiting for the Entropist sequel.
wow, I just spent 30 minutes looking through the same folders in my CYOA collection trying to find something I swore I posted about in the last week or so. Then I spent 15 minutes going over 4plebs trying to find the post. I think I might have dreamed it, although it's so vivid it's hard for me to believe. All I can remember is looking through an author's folder I had downloaded from the archive and leafing through a bunch of different images (mostly one pagers) that were almost exclusively single bold color background plain text CYOAs about occupations mundane and fantastical, nonetheless full of sections, choices, with meaty descriptions. The same author had made a few more elaborate CYOAs but I posted a basic one and noted in the post that I would come back for the others sometime. does anyone remember this? Did it somehow get deleted or did I skip over it when I was scanning past threads? it's a pretty strange feeling to have dreamt about this place - if that's the case, which seems likely

Hi Guys! I Am Wodan Here, With Another One Page Banger! Hope You Enjoy It!
>>98635336>Capitalising every wordI remember when I used to type like this as a kid, I did it because I thought it looked more aesthetically pleasing but other people kept on bullying me for doing it
>>98635336>One Page BangerMore like booger
>>98635336Damn they're all boring non-fantasy choices too. It truly is wodan.
>>98635264Remember that bugnigger also admitted to being the ORspamming wormyanon. How can you get more pathetic (excluding tok)?
>>98635276If you take industrialize you're admitting you get sodomized for fun.

My army is not comprised of soldiers, but rather spies and assassins. We have no headquarters, instead operating within the nations we want to destroy. We will bribe, seduce, or brainwash enemy agents into joining our cause, and any agent deemed too virtuous will be killed and replaced with loyal doppelgangers. We will keep our enemies busy by instigating conflicts with other factions, thus causing them to fight each other when they need to be working together. Ideally we will conquer the world before our enemies even realize that anything is amiss.
>all these dogshit builds for a dogshit cyoaAlmost brings a tear to my eye.
>>98635401Shut the FUCK up you diseased waste of space. You don't contribute anything but verbal diarrhea. That's all you are a constant streaming flow of shit. FUCK OFF.
>>98635522a low quality cyoa deserves a low quality response

>>98634712>This idea that the cyoa cant be criticized or critiqued in any way with without being mad, obsessed, or it being a conspiracy of some kind is nonsense.I am not saying if you criticize entropist you are mad. You are if 1. You think about it more than people that like it. 2. You are happy "people finally realized my opinion is right" or something like that like that other anon saidBoth of them show you are simply mad about it. Mad that when you criticized it back in the day you were drowned in a lot of people that disagreed with you. Now that that people moded on and you can criticized it without getting into a discussion you feel that people finally realized you were right all this time. It reeks of that. Its why revisionism exists.> Even if that other anon thinks its mediocre instead of the best cyoa of all time, so what?So nothing, I simply explained to him why people are not trying to make a discussion about his opinion.>You've made up an entire story in your head in order to portray yourself as a victimPoint where I portrayed myself as a victim.>while simultaneously clutching your pearls and pretending that youre above itIts literally what happened. I saw his opinion and the past me would have started a discussion. I ignored it. Then I saw him thinking now everyone agrees with him because nobody started a discussion and I explained the actual reason.The last part strongly makes me think you are just baiting. I would have answered without the bait, in fact, the bait makes me not want to continue the discussion. Have a nice day and still think about a cyoa you didnt like
>>98634697why are you here then?
>>98635508this is the thread you deserve

>>98634654>>98635077Working on my own evil overlord idea. The project would focus on a more fundamentally fucked up initial setting and more on recruiting and buffing allies than just spawning all of your monsters yourself. So, I have a few questions for all evil overlord fans:>What do you think of focus on recruiting in-setting allies to do your bidding?>Do you prefer if the game elaborates on the in-universe power system, lore and relative power levels or to leave it vague?>Do you enjoy the option to play the straight up good guy or do you prefer it to be more of "warlord vs full on monster" scale?
