It will be orders of magnitude harder to hold and occupy territory unless you plan to either corrupt or convert the local civilizations. That basically makes you fully reliant on the world around you, just at the head of a small elite corps, rather than the center of a self-sufficient warmachine, which is still fully capable of building that same elite corps.

Swordswoman was being introduced as already at "~90% mad" in her character introduction; her losing all desire is a result of her Method pushing her to that point and the fact that she hasn't been bothering to resist it. It's entirely possible for her to go back down to normalish levels, including regaining normal human desires, and she wasn't intended to be "truly unromanceable" or unable to form human connections in general. I'd liken her to something like a V:TM vampire, who will lose humanity quickly if they don't touch base with their touchstones, but can theoretically stay perfectly sane.

The goddesses forces immensely outclass the players, you will be destroyed if you wait too long.
>>
>>98670691
That depends on your definition of outclass, doesn't it? The goddesses have to recruit their forces from the population, supply them, equip them, train them, and then slowly build up their veterancy and blessings over centuries to get a +elite unit, while it takes you an afternoon to shit out dozens of elite units who don't need any supply as long as they've conquered enough land that it could in the first place supply them. The Overlord is unstoppable in a war of attrition, and Elitism sacrifices all of that potential to compete with the goddesses on their own footing.
>>
>>98670691
Waiting is probably the best strategy, because the goddesses numbers already widely outclass you at the start so if you attack early they might decide to team up and just kill you. As long as they don't know you exist they will keep infighting slowing their growth. Overt overlord is just suicide.
>>
>>98670700
You also have to do all of that.
>>98670702
Waiting is the worst strategy, you're just delaying the inevitable. The entire premise of the cyoa is retarded and setup so the player fails anyways, micha seems to really like doing things like that.

>>98670700
That's kinda a lot of assumptions I think goddesses can also summon shit, like how else do you get holy dragons and archangles those thing are definitely not born naturally.
>>
>>98670705
You explicitly do not. You can summon a unit through Dark Essence, add a bit on top of the cost for its equipment, and then feed with the same currency. The sole link in the logistical chain is that you exist and can channel DE, which you can do at scale. It is not an +elite unit but you aren't a god either, you are a minion factory which happens to be capable of approaching godlike prowess in another specialty.
>>
>>98670713
The goddesses presumably can also summon things but they've been weakened by the war and cannot act with their full power without damaging the world. MiCha said that their +elite units are correspondingly rare and large investments of their power, compared to you shitting out hordes of minions.
>>
>>98670705
Well yeah, you essentially just keep hiding until you invent a way to go off world. The entity is just one dark god so will be a lot easier to deal with than the goddesses especially when he gets his shit kicked in again while fighting the goddesses.
>>
>>98670707
>defending ai
>in 2026

>>98670722
Well yeah, but that's only if they are summoning elite+ units they can probably summon lower quality units at a simmilar rate as you and well they have the whole planets worth of fate to call upon.

>>98670714
If you're solely supplying your minions by paying for all of their needs with DE you're going to be having no DE
>>98670728

Dead instantly as the entity obliterates you for deserting.
>>
>>98670707
Art defeatists are so pathetic. You're supposed to create art because it gives you joy not to fulfil your attention whoring desires or solely for a job.
>>
>>98670737
Nah, the entity is a weak jobber, he already lost to the goddesses once
>>
>>98670746
Obliterated instantly, he gave you the power, and he can very clearly take it away. The best thing to do is not to play the cyoa, it's a lose-lose.
>>
>>98670749
Nah, he can't do shit. If he had the power to obliterate you instantly there would be no need for deadline drawback. Heh that shitter can't even force you to obey him without the vassalage drawback. He is clearly working on borrowed power from the other dark gods.
>>
>>98670735
If they could summon lower level units en-masse, they would. It's more likely that they can only pour their power in to a limit degree, so it's better for them to concentrate it into a few more powerful servants.

>>98670737
Bold of you to assume I am not using slimes. Plants, slimes, and lizardmen are probably the most powerful races solely due to their logistical superiority. Plants and slimes for obvious reasons, lizards for their explicit resistance to disease. They'll have no issue eating raw or even rotten food, whereas undead still require magic to sustain themselves.

I think it's implied that the other goddesses backstabbed her so they could get more worshippers.
>>
>>98670754
>>98670763
You're basically a contract worker and your compensation is the power you're given to fulfill the contract. Vassalage is just going from temporary contract worker to a more permanent employee with the promise of more compensation and promotion, but less personal autonomy. I get the impression he is relatively small scale, in the grand scale of things. He's stronger than the goddesses, sure, but not so strong he can defeat them all himself.
>>
>>98670764
Some anons a few threads back were theorizing that the Mysterious Entity is the goddess of wisdom, which would explain why they were opposed to the mermen eldritch cults, are being secretive, and don't have the power to confront the other three firsthand.
>>
>>98670763
>he can't even get you to obey without vassalage
>the entire premise of the cyoa is you obeying him
The fact that you can betray him without insta dying means that you are not forced to obey him. He can't enforce shit so he is giving you free reign which clearly shows his lack of power. Otherwise he would have given you limitations at base without drawbacks.
>cyoa outright says if the goddesses aren't impeded it will take drastic measures.
Sounds to me like the last move of a desperate man, the fact that he can attack before the barrier is repaired but doesn't and uses you instead just shows how desperate he is.
>cyoa outright says traitors will get the worst punishments.
Yeah the fact that he needs to manually punish you just shows how weak he is, if he could instantly obliterate you it would have said that.
>cyoa outright says the entity is very clearly giving you this power to attack the goddesses.
Why doesn't he have more control over you then? Is he just retarded? To me it makes more sense that he is running on borrowed power from the other gods and they are enforcing these limitations.
>>
>>98670778
If that were the case, why do you need to spend power on the Evil Gods rather than access to them being the default?
>>
>>98670778
>The fact that you can betray him without insta dying means that you are not forced to obey him.
You can't without insta dying, retard-kun.
>Sounds to me like the last move of a desperate man
Well yes, his attempt at softening and disrupting the goddesses was too retarded to do its job, he's just going to destroy the whole thing instead.
>Yeah the fact that he needs to manually punish you just shows how weak he is
More like how stupid anon is for trying to renege on the deal you made.
>Why doesn't he have more control over you then?
Readlet, it says in the first paragraph of the cyoa he's just letting you attack the goddesses as you please, he's just not expecting you to be so much of a retard as to try to literally bite the hand that feeds you while you're still an infant to him.

The entity is just using (You) to soften the goddesses and does not care if you die, but will very clearly punish you for betraying him. You're genuinely just pretty stupid.
>>
>>98670780
Token cost so the entity maintains some semblance of rep and the other gods get plausible deniability. Plus maybe they want you to take more drawbacks for entertainment. It's a really powerful ability for only 1 point and think about it if the entity was actually that powerful he would not need other gods to be included as possible targets of worship it would only be the entity as the main worship patron. The mere fact that he must include other gods in the options show that they have leverage on him.

I'm not sure that this is true. It could just as easily be that you need to invest the power to make a metaphysical antenna to get a connection to stream your ongoing conquests to more distant gods. Regarding needing to... why wouldn't you let your friends pitch in on your new fire and forget weapon project? If I were a dark god sponsoring an overlord, I'd definitely let Urik the blood god and Xxya the plague lord drop some of their dosh on making him a bigger threat to the goddesses that have been a thorn in our collective sides.
>>
>>98670788
>You can't without insta dying, retard-kun
Show me where it's mentioned in the text?

Yeah, soften the goddesses the fact that he needs you to soften them up shows that he can't fight them in a straight fight.
Which also means that he never intended you to win and will punish you anyways as just softening them up still counts as a failure. So might as well allow the goddesses to regain as much power so the entity will get bogged down in the war so he won't even have the forces to punish you.

>>
>>98670812
Usurper and Classless are both the most powerful choices of their respective CYOA, they just require a specific sort of build framework to take advantage of them. Most anons either can't or don't want to take on the extra challenge. I love MiCha's stuff so much. I hope he gets over the ungrateful shitposters and comes back one day.

Lol, lmao. Good joke anon.

>>98670820
Yeah he gives you the power but the cyoa doesn't give a mechanism for the entity to enforce it mentioned in the cyoa. If the entity sends me into a pretty much unwinnable scenario but is retarded enough to give me such a lose contract then why the heck should I not abuse it?
>>
>>98670822
There is no way you actually said usurper and classless are the most powerful choices. How delusional can anons be tonight?
>>
>>98670829
>Yeah he gives you the power but the cyoa doesn't give a mechanism for the entity to enforce it mentioned in the cyoa
There's no reason for him to explain the exact mechanism beyond "Traitors will get the worst of it" because he's not expecting you to be so braindead retarded as to try to betray him. Honestly he would have been better giving the power to a tree than (You) if you're this stupid.
>>
>>98670825
>>98670831
It is objectively true.

>Usurper
Claim the domain of a goddess, at the cost of needing to actually kill a goddess. This is doable if you have the proper build for it.
>Classless
Forfeit the JRPG stat boosts and abilities in exchange for more boons and an easier time achieving godhood. If you're clever with modern weapons and your choice of companions, this is more than doable.

Both choices have more potential than other choices, but are vastly riskier and require a strategy that can compensate for that risk.

The same anon claiming you can betray the entity with no consequences is also the one saying classless and usurpers are bis. He's just baiting you anon, no human is actually so retarded to say these things completely straight.
>>
>>98670835
yeah but he needs to punish them manually there is no insta obliterate traitor button or they would not be traitors because they would have simply been destroyed before they comited the traitorous action.

The last paragraph even implies that you can run away from the entity.

Better yet just team up with the goddesses and wreck the entity.

You're already either dead from the entity for being a retard, or dead from the goddesses from taking the deal. He's also almost assuredly not going to die to the goddesses, as the other anon said, his first invasion was a 4v1 and he killed one and is seemingly completely fine, if still wanting to fuck with them.
>>
>>98670911
nah, he can't insta kill you and the goddesess were responsible for the other goddess dying. Plus he is afraid of them regaining their full power so he will even do some desperate actions. So its not out of the question that he will lose especially since he already lost once when sneak attacking and the goddessess seemed to have suffered minimal military losses considering the south has quite a few elite+ soldiers not to mention more shit. They will probably be more prepaired the second time.

I didn't I just paid more attention to you. You baselessly claim that he can insta kill you. The fact that the other goddesses killed her is clearly implied in the text.

The wording here is clearly that the other goddesses were weak and failed to protect her, not that they backstabbed her.
>>
>>98670942
the wording is quite clear that they backstabbed her, no one seeks vengeance for failing to protect it implies that they hurt the wisdom goddess. If it was clear that the entity killed the wisdom goddess then they would be seeking vengeance against the entity.
>>
>>98670949
That is not true, people seek vengeance for incompetence all of the time. If someone builds a bridge that an inspector passes because he was drunk on the job, that then collapses and destroys someone's car, and they go and kill the inspector, they are seeking vengeance for their failure to protect. Vengeance is just justice without the means of verifying that the target is legitimate and the punishment is proportionate.
>>
>>98670955
don't think so, the goddesses further actions seem to show that they did this on purpose as they simply gobbled up the majority of her followers. Not to mention that the goddess can be revived and the other goddesses are doing nothing to help with that. I think the likely scenario than the ritual that the wisdom goddess did should not have been lethal if they all worked together but the other goddesses betrayed her by not helping out in the last minute so she would die.
>>
>>98670967
It's possible, but could also be because the goddesses failed, but then took advantage of her sudden death. I'm not sure that the goddesses can be properly revived, due to the fact that her remaining cultists are pursuing necromancy and the divine-tier power that killed her in the first place is hinted at being able to bypass the immortal soul power, in the Usurper drawback.
>I think the likely scenario than the ritual that the wisdom goddess did should not have been lethal if they all worked together but the other goddesses betrayed her by not helping out in the last minute so she would die.
I could definitely see that happening. That strikes me as somewhat likely, but that's different from a murder, that's neglecting their alliance for the sake of personal benefit. That would definitely drive a wedge between the survivors as they all scrambled for what they could gain personally. Huh. That does make a lot of sense, now that you lay it out like that.
