>>96944561 (OP)
That was fast, TQanon! We just now hit image limit

Are there any CYOAs for decent human beings?
Or are all of them about raping, exploiting, or abusing others?

>>96944633
Hey, there's plenty of CYOAs about getting raped, exploited, and abused yourself. There are even two offshoot generals all about them.

>>96944615
Mission to the Crisis Worlds? I haven't thought about that cyoa in ages.

Classic wizard build. I hold power over the rpg trinity of flame, frost and thunder, plus minion summoning and spacetime hax for utility. All of this is boosted to the heavens with my ungodly knowledge and talent in cultivation. Unfortunately to reach this level of talent I’ve had to nuke my ability to interact with most people down into the underworld, so I must lock myself away in my Vessel to study, only emerging to complete my quests and find portal storms to cultivate in. Fortunately, I cultivate lightning fast, so it shouldn’t take me THAT long in the grand scheme of things to reach a point where I can shed my weaknesses. At that point I should be strong enough to escape earth, after which I will wander the three thousand worlds acquiring lost knowledge and power with my Mentor’s guidance.

As you are absorbed for materials your final thought rests in the peaceful solace that no-balls Shadow-sama will use you to recraft his genitals when he reaches post RE-10 tiers of power.

I never heard of Worm before and have no clue what it is. Web series? Looks autistic. Worth checking out?

>>96945433
It's worm. Just go find a canon character.

>>96945479
But there are no waifus in worm

>>96945470
It is extremely long (1,682,400 words). The doings of the main characters are often boring to read about so I skimmed a lot. Much of the length comes from autistically detailed yet unrealistic battle descriptions, I've yet to see anyone say they actually liked those. The best parts are the interludes about the perspectives of non-main characters, that's what kept me reading to the end. All in all, an uneven work. Part of a zeitgeist that has passed, "you had to be there".

I love the art direction and tone. I would have loved if each world had it's own full fledged CYOA where you play as the typical inhabitant.

Fuck it, here's my OC Idea
You get summoned in a fantasy world by a near almighty mage who's bored
He tasks you with taking over a country of your choice for his amusement

To give you a chance, he's willing to give you boons of one type

>Mage's relics
Powerful artefacts like legendary armor swords and the like that will make you a very strong indiviual but still weaker than the other options and not invincible

>Mage's familiar
Creatures like phenixes and dragons who will bow to your control and lend you their abilities although they're very specialised in destruction and not much else and your body remains very much vulnerable

>Mage's library
Access to countless scrolls that will allow even a muggle like you to cast the spell inscribed on them giving you unmatched versatility and destructive potential although each scroll takes time to cast and the higher level scrolls come in limited supply

Thoughts?

>>96945482
Make one with your tinker powers

>>96945453
If you don't have an account it's your only option.

>>96945496
>taking over a country
Do I have to rule it after taking over or can I just fuck off immediately? Do I keep the boon after taking over the country?

>>96945493
From the outset, you either want to make a selfinsert with your memories, or you want to make an external fictional character. The latter is like a middleschooler doodling his donut steel OC in a notebook during a boring class, or more generously, like an author. I don't think anyone considers memory death a normal option whose pros and cons you consider against its cost; it's either what you wanted to make from the outset or not.

>>96945514
>Do I have to rule it after taking over or can I just fuck off immediately?
Rule it for 1 year and you keep the boons
Fuck off immediately and you lose the boons

In a CYOA where you can make oaths for power what way of enforcement sounds better?

>You will suffer a moment of bad luck equal to the seriousness of your tresspass

>You are immediately seized by pain according to the gravity of the sin.

>You lose favor with your god this is represented by the loss of points you can train to gain new powers possibly even losing temporary access to powers if your mistake was grave enough.

>You simply become incapable of breaking the oaths your body refuses to obey you when you want to do so.

Or maybe you guys might have a better idea?

>>96945537
3rd from the top

>>96945537
>You are immediately seized by pain according to the gravity of the sin.
^
It's a punishment that warns you off, but it doesn't take away free will. Depends on what's enforcing it though.

>>96945483
I tend to like those so I'll check it out. Since I'm already posting about these I'll share some I read or am currently reading for anyone who might be looking for something new to read. Read Diary of a Dead Wizard which I whole-heartedly recommend. The quality of writing is unusually high with only one or two discrepancies (the vast majority of early "plot holes" aren't plot holes and do in fact get resolved and answered later on, but there are still one or two parts that were either dropped or the author seemingly forgot about and never directly addressed). Diary of a Dead Wizard is lovecraftian and dark but it has just enough humor or hope to keep it from being grim and totally depressing.

I shouldn't need to say this, but read Reverend Insanity if you've never seen it before. Fang Yuan is an amazing character. Also worth looking into is I Am the Fated Villain with Gu Changge who is what every CC build wishes they could become (if you are into wuxia type cultivation stuff, check it out). I'm also reading through Dungeon Battle Royal right now which is pretty interesting and is about world/nation building in a PvP free for all kind of setting but it definitely has the weakest writing. I still am enjoying it, though. Dungeon Battle Royal is basically about some isekai goddess showing up on Earth and turning everyone into Law (heroes) versus Chaos (demon kings), and the heroes have to kill all the demon kings to win, while the demon kings have to defeat, submit, or recruit other factions into their nation, so it's interesting and I think most demon lord CYOA fans here would enjoy it.

>>You will suffer a moment of bad luck equal to the seriousness of your tresspass

>>96945574
If we're sharing: the last serial fiction I finished was Grass Eaters, military space scifi about humans and alien dogs/cats/bears warring against alien rabbits.
I like HFY in the specific sense of stories where the protagonist is humanity as a whole (as opposed to any particular characters), against aliens or fantasy peoples. Most of what gets called HFY these days seems to be regular adventure stories where the adventurer is a human who interacts with nonhumans, but that's just a normal adventure then, isn't it, with no particular appeal to me. But Grass Eaters was one that actually felt like real HFY.

But I've been burned out on serial fiction for a while, reading normal books instead.

The Guild

Jack of all trades, master of all. With the ability to create any object from nothing and use it proficiently, I have endless utility and flexibility. Also, since I don't have to understand how it works, I can duplicate and recreate tinkertech on the fly as soon as I see it/know it exists and be able to use it to its fullest potential, possibly even better than the tinker that made it. Being inserted in the Golden Age means I can get in with the Guild on the ground level, pretty much guaranteeing me a permanent spot and high position. Since I have metaknowledge, I can find and retrieve Ascalon before the dragonslayers get to it and thus with it work with Dragon to unshackle her

>>96945795
>Infinite Treasury
Which category is this?

>>96945711
Just take another build, or make another one. Though, I do agree that would be nice.

>>96945817
PCs are almost guaranteed to be OP snowflakes. That's okay for one or two characters, but a whole coterie is too much.

>>96945818
Thanks.

Looking at it, it's really op. Forget about copying high tech for a moment. Think of creating energy. A ton of energy = 89875517873682 megajoules = 21480.76 megatons of TNT > 370 Tsar Bomba.

>>96945836
Unfortunately it specifies you only can create physical items, so directly creating energy is out of the question
though of course you could just create a tsar bomba as that is a physical item that existed at some point

>>96945832
Make them a higher generation? Or just don't abuse the cyoa? idk

>>96945423
If you take Path to Victory trigger but not Blindspot, would Contessa be able to Path to Victory see your mind and thus effectively have your Path to Victory?

>>96945832
Nah, it's entirely fitting for oWoD as a setting to be ridiculously OP because the story is about you. In one of the Gehenna scenarios Lilith turns out to have her own cabal of OP vampires. Nowhere near Ante level but still far above and beyond everyone not named Saulot.

>>96945915
Like how so? She can probably guess what you'll do but it isn't telepathy, can't actually see what you're thinking. Plus precogs kind of muddy the waters when you put a bunch of them in the same area as their shards are all attempting to predict a future based on how things will play out without your future sight influencing things, except everyone else is constantly adjusting what they'll do based on what their future sight is telling them which in turn will be shifting your vision, so they end up becoming blindspots anyway whether it's unreliable foresight or a giant blank spot.

She'll probably still fuck you over though if you're only pitting your PTV vs hers since she's used to making hypothetical models of people she can't directly use her power on.

>>96945915
precog powers, expecially powerful ones, often interfere and trip each other up, so it's possible that the two of you could end up going down a precog loop where you predict her actions and plan around it, but then that changes her path so she changes her plans, which changes your path so you change your plans, and so on and so forth
>>96945978
essentially this, yeah

>>96945915
>>96945978
>>96945987
According to Ward, two users with PtV-like abilities facing off against each other turns into a 5D chess battle that could be anyone's game depending on factors like what's influencing the Shard network as a whole and whether even flying brick-tier Shard hosts are aware of the conflict in the first place and deign to get involved.

Ward is generally considered to be a very controversial sequel to Worm. This is why we do not have a rush of CYOAs giving you the Shard power to created a retarded wiggly caricature of someone else who shrieks about their trauma, or the power to sprout a giant building-sized penis from the ground.

>>96945915
She'd have to PtV after you did to counter your PtV. But then once things started going wrong you could PtV in response. PtV and precog duels in general end up as games of speed chess since to avoid infinite recursive precog loops, and thus infinite energy costs which the Entities can't do because they haven't solved entropy yet, precognitive abilities don't even attempt to account for other abilities on the same level as themself.

>>96945915
Ward pretty explicitly had straight up precognition duels, so that.

>>96945998
>PtV and precog duels in general end up as games of speed chess since to avoid infinite recursive precog loops, and thus infinite energy costs
Good thing the player has infinite energy.

Contessa isn't necessary your enemy, you know. While Cauldron did a lot of retarded things out of desperation and/or normal human stupidity, without them the world is kinda fucked, much more so than even in canon. Golden Idiot, however, will be your enemy for sure.
And all of you will job to Broadcast-chan.

>>96946034
They can, if they take Perpetuance second trigger or Negentropy, it's not automatic/guaranteed. Unfortunately you'd have to "reprogram" a shard before it'd try to take advantage of infinite energy like that, but you can't edit your own powers with Shard Administration.

>>96945423
Is second trigger Broken Limiter capable of destroying the multiverse?

>>96946125
Depends on if it'd make for a funny story. One Punch's powers run on comedy logic.

>>96943204
>giving dominated dragons to Elrond and Galadriel
They would think you to be Melkor returned and shun you lmao.
Melkor was the one that created dragons, and he was the only one powerful/dark enough to control them.
And because the forces of good won't accept your chaotic antics, you're going to try to conqueror the world. You just know.

>>96946176
>do terrible things
>be surprised when the forces of Good view you with confusion and suspicion
I can't believe this CYOA is written to enable the Rings of Power playstyle.

>>96945423
So Unlimited Shard Work+ and a Follower with Shard Administation+ are two way to get every powers but I was thinking, wouldn't Abaddon's Shard & Voice In My Head & Negentropy also allow you to get every powers ?
Explain to your shard that the both of you don't need to play the game of cops and robbers since you already got Negentropy, convince it to let you be in command and use the infinite energy to assimilate/overpower the other shards and create whatever powers you want.

>>96944997
A friendly reminder that In Modern Day, unless you speedrun to GOO status (preferably LotM) to BETRAY and TRAP a certain Genie, the world will have to deal with Son of Chaos inside the barrier. Have fun.

>>96946211
>unless you speedrun to GOO status
On which paths is that possible?

>>96946218
Check the wiki for Advancement and decide for yourself, I'd most likely go for Error.

>>96946218
White Tower. If you read the entire novel (or wiki), you are one of the most knowledgeable people in the world, even surpassing some gods in certain aspects.

It truly starts dominating at s6. You already know all abilities of all pathways, so you only need to see the abilities in real action to analyze their processes, skipping the step of finding out their functions almost entirely, which means lightning fast analysis and near perfect imitation.

>>96946257
What you really must consider isn't just powers, but acting method and rituals.

Any cyoa that doesn't force you to be evil (so most of them). Or does the option to be bad in a cyoa stop you from being good?

>>96946257
I'm not talking about which one is 'best', but which ones already have a Sequence 0 or GOO, in which case you 'speedrunning GOO status" is actually impossible, and they are trap options. Moon for example.

>>96945423
Posted my build in the last thread but I'd drop in as a vigilante with foreign element, get secret lair, cauldron vials, and humble beginnings. With that stack I'll start off unpowered but since I've deemed myself the worthy recipient I get 60 points of power points I get to play with. Since I save on shard points I can focus on getting negentropy, blind spot, and second trigger.
I can get any assortment of powers but I'll get path to victory at 2nd, followed by observer, and get paramount to get a grab bag of powers to switch to and use for path to victory, etc.

>>96946284

What the fuck are you people talking about

>>96946284

Actually no, attempting to go GOO at all is a trap too since the Original Creator's remnant will should still be strong asf

Aaand just like that you lost all credibility.

I think it's the only image build the CYOA received, too, which gives it a special place for that reason alone. But yes, it is a gentle one, with kindly goals.

>>96946371
oof.

>>96946406
Let's see your recommendations.

>>96946527
Notice how I didn't say RI was shit, just that recommending it based on the Fang Yuan's "personality" is retarded since he's unironically the weakest part of the novel. As for my recommendations, Lord of the Mysteries, which the current hot topic, is a-must read, at least before Tank drops the cyoa and you get spoiled to oblivion. Shadow Slave and A Regressor's Tale of Cultivation are very good too, though still ongoing.

Most people who have read Diary of a Dead Wizard also recommend this one. I haven't read it yet but it's on my to-read list.
>Shadow Slave
Oho, looks like it'd be right up my alley. I thank you for the recommendation.
>A Regressor's Tale of Cultivation
I'm ashamed I didn't recommend this, despite me having read quite a bit of it already. I paused it around the third or fourth regression and just haven't continued it. It was really good.
>Fang Yuan
Matter of taste. I find his relentless ambition and his total rejection of morality to be very interesting and unlike what other stories portray. Normally, your bad guy or villain protagonist is still humanized or has good attributes or qualities. Fang Yuan makes no apologies and commits atrocities without flinching. He actually does outright evil actions unlike other characters who skirt around and play around it so I find that pretty interesting. Would I get along with Fang Yuan? Hell no, but I do find him interesting from a narrative perspective. He's what most authors wish they could write their villain protagonist into being.

>>96944997
i hate how this looks, like a lot of tankista cyoas its so full of visual bullshit

>>96946698
Name a CYOA you like

>>96946621
The reason I dislike Fang Yuan isn't because he's villainous (in fact, I like the crazy schemes he manages to pulls off even a little plotarmory). Its because the author makes him monologue about retarded rhetoric to justify his plainly evil actions, "I-I'm not actually evil I'm just le hecking pragmatic I swear!" shit made me roll my eyes in annoyance every time it happened. Just let him be proudly evil, you don't have to justify his every bad doing, which funnily are clearly non-pragmatic because they come back to bite him in the ass and cause him even more hardship than if he didn't behave like a sociopathic murderhobo every chance he gets.

>>96946730
Actually, you have a good point. It got kinda annoying seeing him wax poetic. I overlooked some of it because a lot of it is lost in the translation since in the original language it's more poetic and philosophical. I see what you mean, though.

i will let you know that all his previous actions where done for the sake of all living beings in the world, it was all to destroy fate.

Red. Younger, I can teach her what sex is in my own way, the only point blue has over is breeding bunny girls is hotter. But red has elves not aging, so when they are in their 50s-60s red will still look the same and bunnygirl would become a granny

>>96947372
"Mostly" is the key here. Without CW no one can do anything about him when he uses Black Emperor symbolism to resurrect inside the barrier. In the best case he'll be weaker than normal, but still with GOO "level".

Early puberty is kind of erotic but there's no way to search for it

>>96947592

I'm picturing it real hard, and the only thing I feel is annoyance. It's not for me, simple as.

Rarely. You don't have infinite space to describe and sell the player on the waifu - but what can you do with a single textbox and an anime picture? Most of them are bland archetypes, and written as moonstruck by default - I don't find it appealing. Artificial chemistry, if that makes sense.
That's probably why narrators rank higher in the waifu lists, since you get a longer and better impression on them, and their function prevents too much swooning.

>>96947648
A pedo would want the character to be a child. Wanting to sexually teach someone just means you find "purity" and corrupting said purtiy hot

Are you that braindead you think someone liking someone else means if they don't get that person is ntr? Ntr implies a relationship or a mutual love.
The girl you had a crush on going for another person is not ntr, nor you are a cuck.

NTR only makes sense if you imagine yourself as a subhuman fundamentally unworthy of love, such that an upset of the natural order is required for a woman to want to have sex with you.
It is fundamentally the fetish of browns and freaks, those who know they are worth nothing

>He proved the meme right

>>96947742
If you want to use NTR like that, then it loses its meaning. Just like cuck.
Cuck should just mean what it orginally meant, a man or woman watching their love interest get fucked and be okay with it, even getting off.

If you want to make ntr just liking a person, then everyone is getting ntr everytime they see someone thet find attractive, as they won't be fucking that person but that person will be fucking other people. And everyone will be a cuck because of it.

You are just trying to make the word have a wider meaning, which makes it lose its real meaning and force behind.

I step away for a bit, and the thread goes straight into the gutter. Wonderful.

Anyone have a cyoa or build they'd like to share?

>>96947808
His insticts tell him he needs to go deep and release. So he goes deep into being a cuck and releases.

>>96947814
Well, it's the most actually vile thing in cyoa history. This comparison is only reasonable.

>>96947587
If he's still had the Anarchy pathways and Sefirot stripped from him (as I assume he would, if MTOD and MGOD are missing their pathways as well), I don't think he would be resurrecting inside the barrier.

If he still had control of those pathways, they might even be combined into one like with the other Outer Deities, making them inaccessible.

This is all just speculation. I imagine the intent of the scenario is for all ODs to be outside the barrier or neutralized in some way at the start.

>>96947831
>Anyone have a cyoa or build they'd like to share?
Not really. None of the recent OCs inspired me, and I've stopped reposting CYOAs a few months ago. Diving through the archives is often more fun than keeping up with the thread.

This seems to be based on 30k lore, I'm not too familiar with it. Could any Warhammer lore master enlighten me about who the Moirai in the CYOA are supposed to be and why they are fucking with humanity?

>>96948010
More or less what I expected. I think it still lacks the Overlord option, they are just sinners with the power to do pacts in the end.

Based on, but not 30k (well, 29k really) proper.

The Moirai are the fates, in 30k they would be analogous to the chaos gods I guess, but here they seem to be sending you to unite mankind as their agent.

>>96948010
wow, thats genuinely just very bad on every level.

>>96948118

what the FUCK did he mean by this

>>96948118
I personally agree with your assessment that Moirai are most likely the chaos God equivalent of this setting, but I think they want to keep humanity fractured and in chaos as their missions seem to empower threats to humanity and sow chaos and strife

>>96948013
Why does that matter? If you don't like it or it gets boring just stop reading, and if it doesn't then it's not really an issue in the first place is it? You don't need to make up an excuse to not read something if you're not interested in it.

You know you don't have to go GOO, right? Chilling as a S0 is pretty good too.

>>96948266
It's a web novel, I don't really expect to read any of these kinds of works in the same way I would a published book. It's more accurate to compare these stories to comic books or other serialized media, for instance the sopranos is way longer than an equivalent movie would be.

>>96947963
What do you dislike about it in particular?

>>96948364
Chilling at S3 is the best way to chill. GOO is what the world needs for the apocalypse.

>>96944561 (OP)
What this guy said >>96944976

>>96948374
But aren't only the demoness and death pathway s3 immortal?

>>96948341
Is that actually confirmed? I would think at GOO you won't even look recognisably human.

>>96947811
Clean Italics, Tok

>>96948437
Italics doesn't seems to care about Tokie. If anything the roles should be reversed.

>>96948401
Probably just Death. Demoness S3 is forever youthful but not immortal. If you actually want to live forever you'll need to anchor up and ascend.

>>96948341
Yep.

>>96948466
Demoness s3 is immortal. Death s3 is the one that isn't; it dies, reincarnates, and loses its memory every 60 years, and dies forever after an unspecified number of times.

>>96948706
You can only pick 1 origin.

>>96948717
fair, but red priest and demoness are still 'free'
He shouldn't go for it, but it's an option

>>96948372
It's been a while but from what I remember it reads like a dime a dozen young adult fantasy novel with a bland and often annoying cast. Sunny's incessant marvel one liners didn't help, in fact most of the writing had a marvel aftertaste to it. And having the first arc take place in an exclusively red and ash grey world didn't make for interesting imagery either.

I hate all these canon obsessed anons.

>>96948739
And I hate you 3% more
My hate is greater than yours

>>96948739
Skill issue. You don't understand the source material so you will die while blindly picking options in ignorance just like +90% of builds for VtM.

>>96948756
It's a cyoa, canon doesn't matter, only a retard follows canon.

>>96948739
This is happening mainly because we haven't seen the rest of the CYOA, so we don't know if Tankista is going to give us options to modify canon or options that let us evade canon problems. Like in the absence of any information on if we can somehow usurp a GOO or not get fucked over by Depravity or Tree, it's only logical to assume Moon/Mother and Chained/Abyss are going to screw you over.

>>96948756
he won't, since he's also ignorant of why he'd die, so in his own fantasy he doesn't die, isn't that neat?

>>96948793
>in the absence of any information on if we can somehow usurp a GOO or not get fucked over by Depravity or Tree, it's only logical to assume Moon/Mother and Chained/Abyss are going to screw you over.
True God's Seal will be OP asf

>>96948756
>just like +90% of builds for VtM.
Why's that?

>>96948756
There is no viable build in lotm cannon without plot armor.
100% of anons would perish irrespective of their path choice.

>>96948801
But of course our thread will kindly reveal true depths of his folly. Maybe there is bliss in ignorance, but this bliss won't survive contact with other anons.

>>96948793
Surely it would be more logical to assume that Tankista isn't going to have some of the pathways be traps?

>>96948731
That's strange, I don't remember any marvel jokes you speak of, are you referring to the protags inner monologue?
I personally loved the first arc, the survival horror feel was pure kino. Sunny was kinda bland in that arc but he does grow alot later on. I think its shame if you didn't at least finish the first arc before making judgment, the ending to that was amazing.

God I want to make out with a woman
Any cyoa with waifus that are more for kissing then sex?

>>96948860
>>96944878

>>96948844
*angry Antikrator sounds

>>96948840
But you see, that doesn't matter. I choose my own adventure, I don't care what you or canon say. You can tell me whatever deep lore you want, I will just ignore it because it's my adventure, not your adventure, or the the author's adventure.

>>96948860
>Any cyoa with waifus that are more for kissing then sex?
What would that even accomplish? with sex you can at least imagine it while jerking off, but kissing? don't tell me you kiss your own dick anon...

>>96948869
Have it your way then, just bitch and cry when you inevitably get made fun of. You don't the right to complain if you post your build in the thread.

>>96948887
Why should I? I almost never post builds, and even if I do I don't even read the replies. It's my adventure. You are the one bitching that people can't have fun how they want and they have to listen to the canon police like you.

>>96948901
mage

>>96948904
Yes. I don't care, I have fun, can you say the same? Is having to obey the canon fun for you? Being a slave to the opinions of others is your adventure?

>>96948901
Vampire

>>96948901
The only winning move is to not play when it comes to WoD.

>>96948877
I can imagine the kissing?
I can mentally construct the sensations of taste and touch

Do you never eat or sleep in your head?

>>96948908
>I almost never post builds
Then why the fuck are you seething then? if you aren't going to be part of the discussion then just pipe down and let actual build posters talk.

>>96948860
This is me but with cuddling.
I almost always pick waifus based on cuddle-ability.

>>96948908
Ok. In your headcanon you survive, in my headcanon AND in the official canon you die. 2 > 1. Now scram, loser.

I don't get why he cut off the intro. You can tell it's by tok anyway, and the intro doesn't make you into a bad person or anything.

>>96949046
You are not discussing builds, you are discussing the off topic canon of a setting that doesn't even have a cyoa yet. You should shut up.

>>96949197
I guess...

>>96948827
I too would like to hear more of this. What is the one vtm build that doesn't die, according to Anon?

>>96944997
Here's my build then
>Origin
Modern Day
>Cards
Past: Devil - Acting Method
Present: The Empress - Genderbend
Future: The High Priestess - +2 Paragon benefits

>>96949231
I guess it is to get rid of the cringe dialogue of Toks OC..

>>96949305

Yep, bas-

All in on Paragon. I WILL be the Demon of Knowledge.
Given that we don't have 5000+ years of ritual history with the Spirit World mystical rituals seems like a good perk to have. It's pretty much unique knowledge in this scenario, bar the pathways that dump that kinda stuff in your head automatically.

>>96949387
How? Provokers I get because online shitposting but all the other levels seem difficult In Modern Day unless you join the military or are a criminal or something

>>96949392
Joining the military or being a criminal is, in fact, very viable In the chaotic Modern Day.

>>96949392
We're all in for interesting times there since it's not just beyonders showing up. Supernatural horrors and phenomena are going to start showing up too, and since beyonder knowledge won't be widespread, someone's going to be dumb enough to try to consume high sequence beyonder characteristics or won't know how to digest their potions.

>>96944997

Past: The Sun
The Present: The Chariot
Future: The Wheel Of Fortune

Never read LOTM but I'm going to, someone tell me if this is good or not.

>>96944997
Optional challenge: If you make a build for this page, you have to stick with it once the full cyoa comes out.

Please authors... I beg of you... don't make it too complicated....

>>96949579
I remember in one of my never ever wips that powers had a strength determined by log(a)+log(b)+log(c), where a b and c were different resources you could consume to improve your powers (You actually choose which resources applied to which powers, meaning you could specialize and had to balance the availability of the resources to gauge how much power you might be getting)

>>96949640
That sounds so incredibly unfun.

>>96949640
I fear your mind anon

>>96949640
That sounds so incredibly fun.

Beware with imagechest, it could disappear.

>>96949695
No... surely not...?

>>96949695
But why?

>>96949695
sex?

>>96949703
>>96949705
I was looking at a cyoa and I saw this. And the nsfw adds of tits and butts at the right end disappeared, which I imagine were the adds this is talking about.
Hopefully it won't, but otherwise we will need to look for an alternative

>>96949695
>>96949726
It will disappear. Cyoapoors are too poor to keep it running. No one else uses it.

>>96949726
>submit to virus cancer or else

>>96949695

>>96949739

no... without imgchest, it's over... where will we post cyoa now.....?......

>>96949682

>>96949695

The ideal solution has always been self hosting, but things changed too rapidly for that to work out

Perhaps

>>96949739
It costs money. You ungrateful bitch

>>96949231

>>96949752
I'm grateful retard, but ad money doesn't cut it anymore. Social media has consumed the internet.

>>96949197
>A gallant hero's just reward.
What did you say?

>>96949726
I don't think it will disappear. They have nsfw adds only on nsfw tagged images, and those are still there. Also lately if you go into a gallery it's full of adds mixed with the actual entries.
>>96949734
A lot of the regular uploaders of cyoas started becoming gold, so I wouldn't believe that either.

>>96949770
fuck you, GIl.

>>96949770

>I don't think it will disappear. They have nsfw adds only on nsfw tagged images, and those are still there. Also lately if you go into a gallery it's full of adds mixed with the actual entries.
I mean the giant nsfw adds that were about tits and butts on the right, they disappeared. Now there is a little add at the start and maybe one at the end.
The most notorious adds dsiappeared

>>96949763
ad money doesn't cut it because there is porn on it. That means no ads. Blame the stupid global payments processors for pulling out when there is nudity. Actually, blame America because one of their stupid presidents made them liable which caused them to do stupid shit like this.
