Big cyoa is big
>>81485321>This is a story that started at the moment of your dead....My dead what?
>>81486169Dead sex life
I got to the part where I collect images of dresses specifically and I keep finding myself staring in awe with my mouth open instead of working. It’s tough!
I did significant work on my latest Waifu Picker CYOA today, now that I'm done playing tragic romance game. Maybe perhaps possibly a draft done this week, more likely next week or maybe the week after with proof reading and playtesting.
>>81486465anon when pretty dresses
>>81487182Honestly I’m glad I get to make at least some progress every day what with the things I have on my plate. But the bar is very high to make me think it’s post-worthy, so it’ll likely be several months – before Madoka 4, though!I can rein in my progress posts, though.
>>81486465I do kind of like Sakura [i]but I never actually watched the series[/i]The idea of changing dresses every episode is pretty funny.
>>81487747I have no idea where they got the time and budget to actually make all of these different dresses. Normal manga characters never change their clothes for a reason...
>>81488488They did it because they wanted to play dress up with sakura obviously
RememberYou will never be a girl :)
wake up
>>81488488Tomoyo is gay for Sakura, and is from an excessively wealthy family. The dresses and filming Sakura in them is her main hobby.
>>81485321Cool. So what's going to be in that salut final section? What kind of stuff are we getting from the gods from the world section?
>>81490684I'm going to post salut a week after so that everyone can make their build, if you have played my other cyoa and combine them with the hints placed in this one you can probably guess it's contents. The worlds section just tells you, go play the other cyoa listed with the benefits you took from this one and the drawback of angering the god who brought you.
>>81487747I've seen the first few episodes, but it's hard to make time to watch the classics when there's so much going on right now.
>>81486465>>81487204You're killing me here with teases, anon. I think about the layers and designs of barrier jackets way too much already. Young me was absolutely screwed the moment he saw girly clothes materializing on curvy girls being treated as empowering you to level buildings.
>>81486555Is this from two threads ago when someone asked for everyones waifus and a power?
>>81492689I forgot to say this before that thread closed, but that guy should repost his question with the clarification. He'll likely get better responses if it's at the top of the thread and we know what he's actually asking this time.
>>81485321You are such a strange creature. Your cyoas almost never makes sense, but they are fun at least. Are the 999 options supposed to be pickable at some point or are they there just to make fun of the player? That's one of the worst possible design choices to make in cyoas, unpickable options.
>>81485321I'm going to assume that I get to pick as many as I want in the Misc Talents section, it makes no sense otherwise. Also, with just a partial build I already got to both 100 GF and 100 EF, what now? Do I play both sequels in succession?
>>81492689No, I'm afraid not. I did like how, after the mistake of people making their own waifus, most the suggested waifus ended up being OCs from other's CYOAs that different anon's made.Mine is meta franchise slop inspired in part from the super smash game cyoa, but I wanted to try a company known for crossovers that wasn't nintendo and that also had more waifus and more booba per game. Anyway, uh, I guess if this thread needs bumping again, come and grab a waifu from a CYOA you like and whack it under here for that other author to see.
>>81494557The Saint & Sinner/Devil & Princess parts have some perks that get you the -999 ones as an upgrade if you have the top tier "normal" ones. For example, S&S:Shape: Champion in page 2 gets you (some of?) the bonuses in page 3, which include:Angel's Touch/Embrace/Wings: all upgrade Beefy > UnlimitedMeanwhile, taking Paragon gets you Endless: Mana Capacity High > BottomlessGenius: Magical Talent High > CreatorMartyr gets the same kind of upgrade for Luck, and there are others, (Romeo in D&P gets the beauty one, for instance)So you can't pick them by yourself, but are granted them by God/Satan, it seems.
>>81493933>>81494882I started making my own thing after the lack of response. I guess, you can still submit entries.
>>81494745Yes and no. Choose one side. I'll add a clarification.
>>81495529>Choose one side.Boring. Guess I can save some points in the final build.>I'll add a clarification.You probably should.>>81494885Good to know, I didn't get there yet. I would rather mix and match than pick a side. Especially since there are several options that look made specifically for that.
>>81495947In the end you'll still need to go through both. There's a whole class who's whole purpose is to "pretend" to be on the other side.
>>81485321I think both sides need to lose. At the very least the Holy Crown needs to be melted.
>>81497682Welcome to the SMT way, get ready to reject all gods. The other cyoas, and these too, seem to have vague hints at ascension here and there, so usurping both does seem to be in the cards.Speaking of, the personality test at the end makes me lean more for evil considering what that god considers good, but evil is also evil,
Encroached Realms update: https://cruxador.neocities.org/devlogBasically just the conclusion of what I talked about and posted the other day, not news if you were here for that. I posted the first one I did at first, and now I've done the rest.
>>81485321Seems like the best thing to do is to figure out how to ascend, bail out of this world(I doubt either of them would let you do it without interfering), then come back later to kill them both
>>81485321So... For Saint&Sinner and Devil&Princess, you have Shapes and then 6 powers associated with them, and also 4 general curses/blessings. From what I understood, you have to choose the order of your curses/blessings (you will get them all eventually).But nothing is mentioned in the powers. However, seed of sin/good also seems to imply, you get all 6 powers, but just in the order of your choice. Is that correct?
>>81498563Did you find a better image than tentacle rape for the intro in the end or not?
>>81500334It's not the end yet, but so far I didn't. If you find some, post them
need more yuri...
>>81498563I am quite excited to see that most of the crunch is done. I am following this with interest.
>>81501607Need cyoa with Mero vibes now.
>>81499745You get the shape powers in order of choice while the 4 generic you'll have from the start. If you take two drawbacks and unlock another power you'll need to also decide in which order you'll unlock it.
>>81499734Even if you ascend, which requires you to be fucked up in the head and have some luck too, it'll be hell to defeat them. Gods are bound to their concepts and Eldritch ones even more so as they represent the world of origin, stabbing them with a sword will just destroy their physical body for a while. You'll need to make some kind of scheme that'll corrupt, cut off or destroy their concept. And then again what's the point, you'll be chasing chickens for eternity if you started judging all Eldritch Gods, who have ruined a world or two.
>>81501652I was just about to suggest Tok's sex magic but now that I think on it not only was Mero not present but they didn't even have a mermaid option for a familiar. In fact now that I think on it most of the other main main harem show up in CYOAs from time to time and Papi really seems to get around, but we hardly ever get any Mero's even when mermaids turn up.
>>81485321Does psychic get the spell for free or do you need to buy it normally?What does losing human divinity even mean in the zarganal spell do you just lose gf and ef points? Like with inhumanWhat does the inhuman section even mean? For thr inhuman talent is it both of the palanthology and demonology sections or just one?
>>81502917Mero vibes is much less about mermaids and royalty, and more about being worst girl and willingly getting fem-cucked.>inb4 "But I like Mero"That is her appeal. She wouldn't be cute if she wasn't so terrible.
>>81503418>Psychic For free and you can pick ignoring mastery requirements.>ZarganalAs long as you don't modify it to be permanent you won't lose anything >Inhuman Honestly, I was split on whether Demons should be pickable. I don't really recommend it as you'll become complete pawn of the Black Monarch or False King, but I guess I should leave those choices to the player.
>>81504626So what happens if you modify it to be permanent? Just lose the points? Or is there more to it?What happens if your a demon with madness can the black monarch still control you?So God of War gets the Final Destination "end" martial technique? If I read it correctly
>>81504749>permanent You lose your divinity, the key towards the control of the concepts, the primal blocks of the universe. So yeah, you lose everything. >madness Interesting idea. No he can't. Madness is breaking out of fate, denying your existence itself. I guess, if you don't mind helping the Mad God with the destruction of all existence you can pick it.>God of WarIt does. The only problem with those overpowered spells is their duration and mana cost. In the end you'll pay for what you get.
>>81505113>You lose your divinity, the key towards the control of the concepts, the primal blocks of the universe. So yeah, you lose everything.Interesting, so the same happens if you choose inhumanity? What if you acquire a spell to shepshift into a human form? As it's stated that the gods have human forms but I assume not all gods started out as humans.
>>81485321How do the spells and techniques works, the letter in the top left have to do with comprehension, is it the cost to learn the techniques ?What is the top right number about, the mana to use it ?
>>81490656I did mean CLAMP, for the record, not the characters in the story.>>81492576Come to the dark side. Post what you are hoping for to accelerate the process.
>>81505261Right is MF you need to spend to get it .Left is the Comprehension, you need to use the spell.
>>81505659And you need to spend MF or WF to raise your comprehension of a style or element ?
>>81501607There's a lot of companion crunch still to be done. What's done now is, in TR terms, like 95% of part one, maybe 60-75% of part 3, generously 50% of part 2 and none of part 4. It's currently at 50 pages, the other half of companions plus bestiary could easily push it past 60, with additional content in existing sections we could hit 70, and I have only the vaguest ideas for the conclusion section, which will have some manner of options for quests and achievements but that's gonna be two pages at least. And I need some appendices. So that means we're at 50 of about 75 projected pages. And while some of those are just extension of existing content, there's a fair few existing pages lacking images. So generously two thirds done after roughly a year and a half. Of course, part of the reason it didn't go faster was having lost all my editable files and remaking almost everything. If you double-count the pages I've made twice it's like 80 already, but I still have a couple pages I haven't remade, and I'll need to if I ever want to edit them to a meaningful degree.So tl;dr full release this fall might be optimistic. WIP is still on track for later this month or at latest early April though
What do CYOAs taste like?
>>81507215Salty maids.
>>81507215Love, hope and dream, with a mix of horniness, depression, and loneliless.
>>81507215Salty milk and coins
>>81507215things you want but cant have
>>81507215They are, by and large, tasteless.

>>81506419while it's a shame that the scope creep delayed the WIP, it's good to hear how things have progressed.
>>81510041>WIP is still on track>scope creep delayed the WIPHuh?
>>81508538lukewarm
>>81510095there was a chance that it could have been released as soon as yesterday/today going off something that was said back on Sunday. but instead some scope creep occurred, and thus things were pushed back into an earlier predicted window.
>>81510338basically, scope creep occurred, and pushed things back by a couple of days of work over the course of two days of work(for a net loss of four days of some amount of progress per day)- instead of the WIP only being a couple of days of heavy work away from release.

>>81514741
>>81510338>>81510377Getting it done within those two days would have been a long shot even if I'd focused entirely on getting the WIP out. The work I did instead would have happened either way, it's just a matter of whether it's before or after the first WIP comes out.Also I don't think it's a net loss of four days. It's a net delay of like two and a half days worth of work, I just don't have the full day to work on it when I'm busy with my job.It's also wrong to consider it a loss. I could release the WIP whenever I want to at this point. I'm just making sure certain things are squared away so I can get the most beneficial feedback possible.
Remember rememberYou will never be a girl :)
You will never grill a bee :)
>>81517366Why would anyone want to do that?
>>81517366Of course not. I need those bees as allies against the brainworms.
We sure say some dumb shit keeping this thread bumped huh
>>81515194fair enough. thank you anyways; I'm still looking forward to it.
>>81519395
>>81518906We do. It's best not to take the thread too seriously.
Almost done writing up (the still tentatively-named) Champion Royale, with only a small handful of choices left. After that will be image-searching - and if the usual pattern with me holds, I'll then be able to put out a 1.0 release within about a week.March release sounds probable.
Here to shill my interactive dbz harem builder cyoahttps://formerly-known.neocities.org/
>>81518906Yea. For some reason anons don't want to recognize this is a dead thread walking.
>>81521146Finally beat those video games?
Making my incredibly irregular DIC build, the first this year. As usual, I pick a goddess (this time at random), make a build for them upgraded with every one of their abilities, and then try to find another goddess+ability to combo with every other abilityToday, I randomly picked Laika. I find Laika a bit underwhelming, since her best tric is mind control but she repeats it 4 times, and her minionmancy is underwhelming, but we'll give it a go. Rechained mode, each additional goddess is underpowered unless I pick them twice, some suggestions on what the upgraded powers might do... the usual>Soul ShacklesRakona - Legendary EnduranceHave chains not only around people, but through people. That might be fun. Upgraded chains might be animate, and able to move on their own. >Open the Gates of HellRakona - Strength of TenImps are weak, this makes them not weak. Simple. Also, Rakona gets unnerfed, so predators prowl I guess. Upgraded Gates of hell maybe gives different types of imps - like fire imps, ice imps, big imps, flying imps, etc. >Deal with the DevilAkatsuki - Magical TattooForcing someone to sign a contract is neat but honesly redundant; instead, I could maybe use tattoos to put contracts physically onto others. Upgraded Deal with the Devil might let me put in extended or referential clauses.
>>81521836(cont)>The ultimate priceRelis - Moving on it's ownThere's a lot you can do with a soul, but not a lot to do with the souless - this remedies that. Not sure what to do with the removed soul, but maybe an upgraded one can be fuckable. Alternatively, body switching. >Demon SeedWyn - Papa NatureBetter growing seeds = better demons, plus maybe more control on the type of demon. Upgraded demon seeds probably make greater demons. >RegaliaRelis - AssembleJanatel is the more obvious pick with hextech core, but skipping the sex part of charging the sextech armour is boring. What's more interesting is potentially making a golem out of sextech, maybe with a lucky human planted inside to power it. Also, unnerfing Relis, so I guess I get maid golems too. Laika + every power + unleash the power: 8/21 coins. 4 goddesses + 2 Power Starved + 6 Powers: 12/21 Coins.Total: 1 coin left. As I usually do probably take antibody for immortality for me and the goddesses, and probably broadcast for that one extra coin / goddess needed to get the fancy infini house.
and also posting dic
>>81521383No, but I can do both
>>81521325Hard to pick much more when the perfect 2-in-1 one-person-harem girl already exists.
>>81522573Tien dumped her for a girl named Urine.
>>81505395>Post what you are hoping for to accelerate the process...I'll bite. What level of granularity does this operate at, anyway? Is it distinct segments or are we operating in layers?
>>81522671I have 18 distinct panties, 15 bras, 9 socks times 6 lengths for socks, 13 skirts at 6 lengths, 10 pants at 4 lengths each, 10 times 9 shirts, 12 dresses at 5 lengths, 12 pairs of shoes and 10 of gloves and this isn’t even half the articles of clothing available. Every single one needs a perk or quirk so there’s a lot of space to take in suggestions from anons. The other thread someone mentioned hypnotic trances and I realised I didn’t have that yet, so it helps to make sure your fetish doesn’t get overlooked because I need nothing except clothes to shift into the highest gear.… but yeah on the other side if you post even more clothes to include chances are they are either already here or increase the scope so it takes a bit longer in the end.
>>81523505What about some socks for stepping on people (nicely) and some heels for stepping on people (roughly)?
>>81523708It’s difficult to think of perks or quirks relating to this but I believe I have found some things. I don’t want it all to read ‘you can do X sex thing better’, after all.
>>81521325>neocitiesaren't they nuking the lewds? hope you have a backup
>>81524895You have to go into your account settings and enable adult content or something like that, but their standards for adult content are actually pretty loose, so really anybody posting there should do it.
>>81523505...I may need some time to assemble an image to avoid cluttering the thread. I gotta shove my Nanoha rep in somewhere. Do you plan for there to be distinct sections for each or is it sort of a "your punishment for stacking everything is to look like shit" situation?
>>81528483You will never trap a level 6 boreal toad in a simple pitfall trap.
>>81485321Am I being greedy or is 20 points not a lot ?
>>81523505Trying to make an almost identical section is what killed Crossed Fates stone dead so you're a braver man than me for attempting this. I think if I were to approach it again now I'd keep it simple and have each item give X number of points which you could freely spend on a selection of powers instead, instead of trying to tie each to an item.
>>81527703Is that new? I don't remember having ever seen it before, but maybe I just missed or forgot it.
>>81528931My offline copy says it was saved in november of 2023, so no, not new at all.
>>81529388Weird. The Snow White picture for Name of Fiction wasn't posted on Sabu's site until late 2024. Wonder if he kept that on his Patreon for a while or something.Well, now I know.
>>81529785Your guess is as good as mine. Using paywalled pics in a CYOA does seem in character for Tok.
>>8152867320 points is practically nothing
>>81528673with 20 points setting wise you seem to be about archmage level if not a bit stronger, unless you pick some of the more OP options
>>81526778>distinct sections for each or is it sort of a "your punishment for stacking everything is to look like shit" situationHow punishing it will be comes waaay later when I decide on point totals but you basically choose where to spend your budget and on what.>>81528792>have each item give X number of points which you could freely spend on a selection of powersBelieve it or not, they have that! On top of the perks and quirks. I keep those really grounded and low-‘powered’ to combat scale creep. So basically everything beyond everyday-life-comfort is minimalistic.
>>81528673You can always take the drawbacks. Some of them are quite harmless if you think about it
>>81528673>>81530217Are you two making a warrior, mage or mix build? I think I overpriced the warrior perks.
>>81530090>SAR! DO NOT REPOST! SAAAAAR!!!
>>81531582Oh hi Tok. For the record I don't give a rats ass what you do, even if I personally like giving artists their due. Also you need to learn your languages: Indian doesn't use the civilized alphabet.
>>81485321Damn I liked the girl I picked in Advent so I kinda want to take the Mad God's deal but that seems like a bad idea
>>81532034I'm really proud of the girls in Devil & Princess too, give them some love.
>>81532034I mean the world with both satan and GOD is probably more sturdy to a third player than earth.Well apparently the god of earth went mad but it probably was not a god god
>>81532229But i like nameless...
>>81485321I've got some questions1: Is the Holy King of Veldart the same position as the Flase King with the only difference being as to which spirit?2: Do the children described in the parents section always exist or only when you pick them, I.e. is there a fourth prince if you don't pick it? And if so, are they destined to fufill their designated role, I.e. the child of the first black Monarch will always be the next Black Monarch if you do not choose to be the Monarch instead.3: Are there multiple Deities of the same element? There's mention of multidimensional Goddess of Death in A.D.C., while in & there is a dead God of Death.4: Is the Devil that is occasionally named in & the same strongest daemon called the Devil in The Island, and not Satan? If so, is Satan is just his fragment as described in A.D.C. for the Contractor.5: What rank of diety is GOD? He seems to be of the dimension tier and not world tier which seems to be the rank of the eldritch/outer gods. But given Satans probable connection to the Devil, it seems the world would have been long anihilated if he was that weak.

>>81523505A few suggestions I could make is that you have something that makes you more or less tomboyish, and perhaps an inverted version of that where the girlier you dress, the more tomboyish you become and the more masculine you dress, the more feminine you become. Push anons out of their comfort zone and all that. You could link those to incidental accessories like buttons or earrings if you don't want it to dominate the whole outfit.I'll have to admit to being a pure TF fetishist, so if I could selfishly hawk for a moment, something that causes you to absolutely ruin your pretty outfit every once in a while. Like your super mode either turns you into a monster or sometimes you turn into a guy, different version of yourself, etc and you burst basically everything you're wearing in the process.
>>81533001I mean all the girls are cute but I feel like the words of Satan in the wishes hit different, except for Celeste I really liked how her short story turned out too. It's not the girls who are at fault but my retarded self who pushed GOD's assholeness too hard over making the story cool.
>>815340911.No. The King is just a Human who's nature has been modified by GOD. There isn't a need for the spirit of Order to bring Order to itself, it's a much more stable concept than Rebellion.2. No, they don't. You can't fully trust any information of a choice you haven't picked. When you use your Fate you are deciding on the future and with that destroying all other possibilities. If a companion liked you unconditionally when you picked them, it might turn out they hate you or have died already if they weren't picked.3. The Forgotten Deities are just images of the Outer Gods, they only rule in this world over their element. That's why I called them Fakes too.4. 5. The Daemon, The Devil who keeps him locked and Satan are different people. The Daemon is still locked up, The Devil is the Eldritch God of Contracts(he shows in the eldritch spells) and when it comes to Satan and GOD you'll see in Salut.Thanks for reading everything! I love you anon, but please don't go out with me!!!
This is a will always be a girl thread.>>81485321Are you forced to be a man? It seems a fair few options seem to assume you have a penis, like one of the potential stalkers.If not, is anything not defined by an option free to change whatever, like being a loli instead? And/or having torso sized tits and ass.Especially with half breed or inhuman, but even without it, can you be really young/old for example?
>>81531988NTA, but I hate artists so I purposely look for art I can cut the signatures and watermarks off of for my CYOAs, specifically to not give the artists credit. You ever met an artist? Trust me, they don't deserve any credit while they are alive. The best art is made by poor, destitute, abused, and ridiculed individuals. Artists who receive praise and accolades inevitably become terrible people.I don't like the way AI art looks, but I'm glad it's pissing off artists. I firmly believe artists should never get paid for their work. They should be allowed to receive donations from people who want to support them, but should not be legally allowed to charge money for making art, and should not be allowed to paywall anything they make. Either nobody can see it or everyone can see it, and if some dumbass wants to give you a couple bucks, fine. Otherwise you SHOULD be poor, you SHOULD feel like a piece of shit, and you SHOULD die a nameless nobody who is then remembered after your death as a great artist. Otherwise you're a faggot.
>>81531013Aleardy took the brown hair, purple eyes and the marked soul.>>81531208Yes, mix, more warrior than mage, I think that's the problem, near all stats high isn't cheap already, but taking "one body one sword" with "weapon of choice" and "spell swordmans" really hurt, so many things being inborn talent really make you want to take as much as possible, the styles arent cheap either but that's problably to make the player focus on one.
>>81538733I was trying my best not to write the character assuming he is a dude, but when I write I go by flow so there are slip ups. You can be whatever, but I didn't put a gender selection on purpose, because it feels like I'm picking sides in american politics >>81539734I already made the changes. Try and see if warriors aren't too broken now.
>>81538825>The best art is made by poor, destitute, abused, and ridiculed individuals.Guess that's what you tell yourself when you cry yourself asleep at night.
Hey, can I make two requests? Could someone dump the Dark Magical Girl CYOA+the Redemption DLC for it, and could I get someone to dump Your Proper Place as well? I thought I had them saved but turns out I don't.
>>81537253if an inhuman casts the subiecta spell, can they summon inhumans of their species instead of humans?
>>81485321Do you need 100 GF/EF to continue towards either sequel? Or do you just go straight to Salut?
>>81538825Huh, I was going to make a sarcastic reply to this until I realized that minus the whole "everyone should suffer part", this is actually kind of inline with my own thoughts. There are way to many people gatekeeping art of all types, the worst being major corporations with armies of lawyers suing anyone who looks at art they "own" in a way they don't approve of, but some small time artists are doing the same thing just on a smaller level effectively. My ideal system would be "career" artists and businesses would make money through commissions but after that the art is out and available for anyone, forever. Ideally incentivizing the creative part and less the hoarding IP's part.

>>81540787
>>81540564I didn't intend it to work that way, but it might make more sense if you're summoning images of your subjects. But still that would imply higher mana cost if you're summoning a dragon for example.

>>81540638 Yes. Salut wouldn't make sense otherwise.
>>81540831Thanks big man. I appreciate it.
>>81539791I saw, it's better, through the 3 new perks are a must for warrior, I probably should drop taking The Ancient spell with Psychic and take low mana capacity since Battery and Generator are now a thing.What would Crossbread Ghost give, same question for Cursed Tome, and how good are Narcissist's weapon and armor ?
>>81523505Relevant fetishes:Chastity/orgasm denial (and femcirc/infibulation) Exhibitionism (of course)PeeDom/sub stuff obviously, but also misogyny and gender-dependent humiliation stuff, or femdom. Raceplay tooLoli (and ageplay, regression, diapers)Bloodplay, knifeplay, choking and hair pulling and stuff like that if you want to appeal to women I guessYou can also ríp of other CYOAs that have done something similar. Superloli has lots of panties, and there's that kimono one, and wasn't there one with a wedding dress section at one point, or am I thinking of a WIP that never finished?
>>81485321Can you buy comprehension for any element or do you need to unlock the associate section (need to unlock Forgotten to buy War) ?
>>81485321The Blood element is not listed in the Magic section of the Misc link.
>>81538825A bit extreme but i do loathe paywalls with a passion and i have an eternal evergrowing grudge towards artists who nuke their galleries on a whim.
>>81541287You need to buy the talent first>>81541347Yea, shadow too. I think they'll be in the eldritch part. I'll rename contract with blood( a metaphor for sacrifice) and add some more classic blood spells>>81541133I don't know if ancient with psychic is some real genius stuff or a dumb gamble.There are two possibilities for ghosts. You either receive the ability to temporary become invisible or invincible and the other is for you to get some strength centered around your obsession as ghosts typically only have their dying wish on their mind. Your skin will be unnaturally pale also.Tome would give you intelligence don't you think? Your skin would also have some letter like patterns on it, describing your being, mood or just being pure nonsense.
>>81541133Narcissists are as strong as their Honor, so you'll in fact need to cultivate a comprehension of Pride if you want your weapon and armor to be powerful.
>>81485321What does Zarganal evolve exactly? Is it your stats like beauty, luck, body, magic, etc. or can it have more weird and esoteric changes too? Is there a limit to the improvement or can you just cast it again and again as long as you have the mana to maintain it?
I'm thinking of making a low effort waifu cyoa
>>81542147>I don't know if ancient with psychic is some real genius stuff or a dumb gamble.It's Psychic or buying the spell and hope to reach Sage level comprehension in like 40 elements to use it one day.>>81542170Honor ? So they need to comprehend the Pride element and win fight ?
>>81542323Why are you thinking about it and not doing it? Especially since it's low effort. Can't even muster that much, anon?
>>81542323Do it, despite what whiners say it's always fun to choose who's the best girl.
>>81542371NTA, but what does Ancient even do? prevents any of your 1s getting lost in the void? what does that even mean?
>>81542449As I understand it, If you train, you will get better, no training for years and getting nowhere.
>>81542469how often is that even going to be a problem? and its an ultimate spell so are you really going to spend pretty much all your mana every time you train?
>>81542500No idea, it doesn't come with a casting method so maybe it's always on, you can only use it with psychic, so it start at beginner level anyway.
>>81542685hmm... but doesn't "all" mean that you can take it with any element? As all the basic martial techniques use "all" as I don't think you need to master all martial paths to get basic techniques
>>81542807At the end of page 1 of the Misc link, All in magic is every elements.
>>81542856which is still pretty vague. Is it a combination of all elements and you need every element? Or is it a Set that every element is in and any element in it can be used instead of all?It would be very confusing if the martial tecnique all worked differently from the magic all
>>81542963>It would be very confusing if the martial tecnique all worked differently from the magic allNot really, each style have it's own word and got nothing to do with the element, All being under the basic techniques instead of nothing is a little weird, smae with shadow death, but not much more than some costs having a - before the number while most have nothing.
>>81542963>>81542371All means Fire & Water & Space & etc... It works just like other spells that use multiple elements, I added additional clarification in the spells section and magic section.Also yes winning fights is a part of it, but it's more like a way of life, your inner philosophy.
>>81543331So as long as you got one element at the right comprehension level you can cast a spell with multiple element, but more comprehension in more element make the spell better ?Starting with high mana might be better than getting The Ancient with Psychic then, would costs 130 WF/MF but could cast it at Sage level right from the start, and starting with more mana gives a lot more options.
>>81542219You can cast it again and again. It can improve everything including giving innate abilities like that of the Narcissist and the Oni
>>81485321>Okay, let's see what this is ab->Almost every pic is loliI'm good, but thanks.I hope ya'll have fun.
Encroached Realms update: It's ready enough to release the WIP. However, I work this weekend so my current plan is to release it Monday, when I have time to receive and integrate feedback.
>Almost every pic is loli>ya'llbait
>>81544200Yeah... I do dislike loli pictures too, but if you ignore them it's an interesting cyoa setting wise, it's not even that NSFW text wise it's just those damn accursed loli pictures
>>81485321How come purple hair doesn't give you any specific powers, like beginner blood magic comprehension or something?
>>81544363NTA, but Doesn't it give you blood that is highly corrosive to demons?
>>81544363Oh, or natural specialist for blood magic would be something that makes sense.
>>81544470It says Viza have that corrosive blood, and also "the magic skill to manipulate it".
>>81544496well I assume you become a viza yourself, the same way you gain powers from other hair colors as you gain their lineages
>>81535915Not sure on the exact implementation but I can definitely use this!>>81541144>infibulationYou’re teaching me new words I probably didn’t want to learn, wow. Relationships and the rest of society are especially tough to implement since I want to keep the setting vague to make it applicable to many scenarios, but I should definitely not disregard those important areas.
>>81540814Reading through this whole CYOA has given me this glimpse into a completely alien mindset. Surely this must be one of the rare CYOAs written for porn sick gooner women by a porn sick gooner woman, because there's a level of depravity and pointless emotional masochism entirely based around a highschool mean girl clique no one should care about that makes me feel like I'm intruding on the drama club's weekly orgy. It's like I just read seven pages of a bizarrely well thought out CYOA where the entire thing is somehow about shoving shards of glass up your peehole. I cannot deny it's pretty good at being a CYOA (though the antagonist character is if anything *too* mutable IMO), but nothing about it is for me and I'm only reading out of sick fascination.Apparently CYOA-fem-me was already merrily slaughtering her way through the fantasy countryside before I was invited to this academy and given top training to become the best in the land. So I have enough personal power already. And if it's not personal power the only reason to continue hanging around the dark academia setting is to marry a prince basically, and obviously fuck that. The girl makes you walk to her mansion, seems like that'd be the time to say fuck it and go back innawoods to murder more goblins. Or hell, one of the race options is a construct. If you do want to engage rather than just rolling your eyes and ignoring the brat, then go standby in the right cave and you can show up in sixty years for a rematch and laugh at her stupid arthritic body.
>>81545539It's literally about a rich girl having a crush on a poor girl (You) and being too much of a tsundere to admit it, it's not that deep. Watch Familiar of Zero if you want a vague analogue with a male protagonist.
>>81545539My hate for it isn't even that deep. I get that these sorts of CYOAs are for a particular type of fetish, and there are a bunch like this, but just the mere thought of this being done to a human being always activates pits of rage in me that I never knew existed. The sheer accepted and even celebrated worthlessness of the "master" types in these make me want to hurt them so fucking badly. I swear I'm really not a violent person usually but these just feels completely over the line somehow.
>>81545665Randomly getting unreasonably triggered by this stuff in something you're not even interested in is a sign of autism.
>>81545665Nobles/the ultra rich are parasites on the rest of humanity and basically just vampires or dragons without the combat prowess. Dragonslaying is a natural human impulse.I think a flaw with the CYOA for me is that while it tries to pretend that it's a 'pick your level of evil' she still does stuff like break your prized possession or enslave/brainwash you with a magical artifact. So I can't view her positively even slightly: she's scum that deserves the Vlad Tepes treatment of either way and either it's doubling down on making her even worse, or if you go the 'softer' route it's just like 'oh, teehee, i guess that's fine cause she's hot' which should make anyone with self-respect cringe. It's really just the stereotypical woman thing of your ideal partner being a violent sociopath who will hurt everyone but you. >>81545707Anon that's retarded, with logic like that you must think everything is a sign of autism. God forbid someone have an emotional reaction to something intended to provoke an emotional reaction.
>>81545839No with that logic you don't froth at the mouth with the desire to attack a fictional lesbian in a yuri CYOA you don't want to play.
>>81544229Bro might just not be familiar with totfucker its not like he is some unknown and super obscure author but he isn't super popular either, I myself only learned about after a recent PSY postGlad to see more lolicon authors like Cruxador tho
>>81545539is this a copipasta
>>81545665I completely agreeI don't even want to torture her, sexually or otherwiseI just want her to be dead
>>81544363You're completely right. I'll add something. It's one of the things I left for later, but forgot about in the end.
>>81485321Are some classic elements better than others when casting The Ancient spell ?
>>81544211...aw man, I had hoped to have an entire weekend to diesect it before sending you back a small essay's worth of either praise, constructive feedback, or both.Looks like I have something to look forward to on Monday then.also, don't forget to upload it to Imagechest or the like.
>>81547699You mean summoning probably, but no. You can't summon an eldritch god in the first place. You're like a chick poking at a human, they just see you as adorable and give you some attention. They summon themselves.
>>81546523>recent PSY postCan you link to it? I've been looking for whatever PSY:Escapee is since I saw it mentioned in the worlds section of &, but I can't locate the author on the allsync and I haven't had much luck elsewhere, either.
>>81548748No, I'm wondering if Sage comprehension in one element is better than another for the purpose of casting The Ancient, maybe Mana would be better than Fire if you only had one element.
>>81548251If you're going to put something together that's organized and methodical like that, then you could also do it the following weekend. I don't have a problem with that, it's just that combing dead threads to catalogue feedback is way less fun for me than being active in the threads and talking to people (and probably less productive too) so I don't want to drop it when I won't have time to be here.>don't forget to upload it to Imagechest It's only going on Imagechest, I'm not solving 53 captchas just to spam the thread with a WIP
>>81545839Have you considered that rather than evil she may just be extremely stupid?
>>81545839>you must think everything is a sign of autismMany behaviors that are typical here are in fact signs of autism. There is a reason for this.
>>81550045yeah, and that reason is you don't know what autism is

>>81549579I'm fine with just seeing it on Monday, no need to wait. the little 'aw man' thing was more of a joke than a legitimate pressing want, as the fact that it will be dropping on Monday is still sooner than I expected.
>>81545839It's not even dragonslaying necessarily, I get this reaction to any CYOA premise where this sort of thing is the premise like Eta-class.
>>81550984Terry Pratchett wrote that evil starts with treating people as things. There are worse crimes, but they all start the same way, people as things. I get the same vibe of feeling irrationally annoyed by them and I'd say I mostly hate them because both do the 'people as things' sin, but also both are only able to do this because the universe has all but bent at the knee to help. Y'know, the whole 'the reason they can do this is because theyr'e so much better than everything else for no adequately explained reason' thing. That sort of author's baby, plot armor, immersion breaking Mary Sue-ish nonsense has always had a habit of getting people annoyed. For the same reason people don't like the Navi from Avatar because even if they should be the sympathetic good guys, reasonably resisting alien invaders, their entire existences feel so absurdly good it's hard not to hate them. It's been a while since I read Eta but I remember that was full of that sort of nonsense, up to shit like 'oh yeah magic is a thing that exists but we're totally better than magic it's just kinda lame and smells and we're so much better teeheehee, we're just telling you it exists in this universe so you can understand how lame it is in comparison to how the author made us'. Ugh.
>>81551943>immersion breaking Mary Sue-ish nonsenseYou mean... aristocracy?
>>81552021Aristocracy who is better than everyone else in the setting at sword/magic, but also so aristocratic the other aristocrats are too frightened to comment on any of her behaviour, and also rich enough to out rich anyone else, including whoever sponsored you to this school, and also manage to out do you in every way, and also have a thriving slave market, and also have magical brainwashing headwear that can with just a touch to your head steal all the heroes powers and turn them into a sex slave and also... and also... and etc etc etc.I'm probably missing a page where she also has an everything proof shield and a nuh-uh beam and Jesus high fives her on the back of her tyrannosaurus rex.
>>81551943you're writing too much now and making connections that only make sense to your own personal experienceit's time to stop the stream of consciousness
