/qtg/ - Quest Thread General

re-asking from last thread

I just had a crushing defeat to my ego. Is now a good time as any to run a quest?

Are quests a good way to deal with sadness?

>>449036
>How do you feel about the moderation on /qst/?
What moderation? I haven't seen any.

>>449044
Run something that's light and comfy, with minimal heavy themes.

>moderation
There was a ton of deleted shitposts but the interaction came very late.

>>449044
>Are quests a good way to deal with sadness?
No idea. Running a successful one could help but there is also a chance you aren't cut out for it and the quest just gets ignored which could hurt.

My advice is to just read quests instead. Go in the archives and find something lighthearted and long to kill some time.

>>449036
>moderation on /qst/

>>449036
>what does my quest fall under
A failure that could have gone places if I prepared and ran on a proper platform.
>what quests am I into?
Banished quest, cause it's banished quest. Any recommendations btw? Stuck in westerns quest is meh. I'm a big fan of the witcher so might start a stuck in the witcher quest. Probably won't though.
>how do I feel bout the moderation?
Well this is a good board, moderation doesn't need to be enforced all that often. Shitting on fags that come here for stupid shit is always fun, shame they have to take up so much space each time they do it though.

>>449065
>stuck in westerns
Yeah autocorrect also affects my QMing.
Stuck in westeros is what I mean.

I announced this on Twitter earlier in the week, but for any players who don't follow me there, Dark Gate Academy will be returning next Friday, August 12th.

We have mods? It's actually astounding how long outright shitposts manage to stay up on this board most of the time.

>>449055
>No idea. Running a successful one could help but there is also a chance you aren't cut out for it and the quest just gets ignored which could hurt.

I made a quest on /tg/ that did pretty well, had plenty of players.

Not sure how that would transition to /qst/. What's the difference in playerbases?

>>449077
what was your quest

>>449079
Old history. I don't want to bring it up.

>>449082
Mostly new people I think. I just got into QMing on impulse. First time playing was a good 6 months ago.

>>QM Question
>If you have to, what kind of genre would you say your quest falls under as a whole?
Anime/Shounen.

Speaking of which, Hero Guardian Quest continues tomorrow (Sunday) at 20:00-22:00 CET! The Climax of the Western Front Arc will commence!

>>If you have to, what kind of genre would you say your quest falls under as a whole? Did you plan for it to be this way?

Cute girls doing cute things. And yup!

>>Which Quest(s) are you currently binging/lurking/playing and would you recommend it to anyone else?

This question should be related to technical aspects of question, in my humble yet rad as fuck opinion. Furthermore, Audit, MAQ, and I'm currently reading Blorp's quest from the start.

Fucking read them, man.

>>How do you feel about the moderation on /qst/?
Wut moderation?

>>449036
>If you have to, what kind of genre would you say your quest falls under as a whole? Did you plan for it to be this way?
Probably Adventure, with a mix of sci-fi, drama, some romance and a bit of conspiracy. And no, during the first two threads I was winging it until I thought of possible ideas. Still, I wasn't expecting that my players would pursue a diplomatic route and avoid the entire "boss fight arc" that I planned. They get brownie points for that.

>Which Quest(s) are you currently binging/lurking/playing and would you recommend it to anyone else?
All my favorite drawquests are either dead or on a hiatus.

>How do you feel about the moderation on /qst/?
The cavalry always arrives late.

>>449105
>Cute girls doing cute things. And yup!


This is really all I want in quests.

Eclipsed Moon Quest Episode 135 tomorrow.

>QM

Probably action. Maybe a dash of adventure, but it's not like some warehouse in Jakarta or a temple in Nepal are terribly adventurous.

>Player
That NEET zombie one is pretty cool. I was following Laughing Dog before /QST/ as a whole failed sweet, innocent Dark. Also catching up on Banished and follow Crusader Quest when HF decides he loves us

>Bonus
This board is moderated?

Also, running CQ13 if anyone's interested.

So, I know /qst/ isn't participating in the 2016 summer 4chan cup, but would we want to participate in winter?

Macross Quest by planefag/MercCommand when?

I want to do a "Warring States of America" quest about a post-apocalyptic America where the states war against each other to "restore the Presidency", is anyone interested?

I know the Warring States and Three Kingdoms period are completely different, but I got this idea after thinking about RoTK and its fanfiful characters.

Honestly, Merc really would be the most appropriate QM to run a Macross quest

>>449289
Define post-apocalyptic. Is it Mad Max-esque? Something like Fallout? Or is it just a general Divided States of America, more like Crimson Skies or Kaiserreich?

>>449326
It's post-apocalyptic in the sense of Sangokushi, with no central authority and armed brigand bands wandering about raping and pillaging in the name of imagined ideologies.

A nuclear war happened and there are throngs of refugees wandering around the country, some prostituting themselves for a mere bowl of porridge.

Narcos from Mexico take advantage of the chaos and are constantly doing slave raids on the Texan border.

Canada has built a wall, guarded by more than a couple battalions to shoot on sight any American refugees who attempt to scale it.

The interior is a hellhole, where Texas is the only state strong enough for there to be some semblance of an organized state. Coastal areas are slightly better off with the rare trans-Atlantic/Pacific smugglers. There is an intricate series of fortifications and trenches around San Francisco and New York City.

A general race war is happening in the South, with white and black groups enslaving each other while they burn each others homes.

The internet is fragmented. What you can browse in Texas might not be the same as what you can browse in California. This can be attribute to ante-bellum tampering with the Internet's otherwise decentralised structure.

>>449289
I honestly don't think the states would make any attempt at restoring the presidency. They'd just go about their business existing as independent nations.

>>449370
Not if they were ran by an autist.

Otherwise it's pretty ok.

Oh yeah and I'm back at it again with another quest, fulfilling that never ending impulse. Hopefully I won't crash and burn this time. I also took time to prepare, yay!

It's raiding season!

When you say the fanfic, do you mean the random gay smut?

Or just the quest as a whole?

>>449036
>How do you feel about the moderation on /qst/?
haven't really seen it in action.

Playing Bioarmor, Left Beyond, and Overlord. and I would recommend all of them.

Oi Cosmic are you still alive and reviewing quests?
Your reviews are more fun to read than most quests DESU.

>>449497
It's obviously just the gay smut

Giant civ quest? I remember reading that one actually. Not half bad for civ quests.

>>449508
This gets me thinking.

Cosmic Vs the late Reviewanon: Who did better reviews?

>>449581
Reviewanon was a bit too longwinded saying things that could be said clearly in a few sentences but I feel he was more objective.

Cosmic is less wordy and gets his opinions out clearly but I feel he can't help having his own personal bias and tastes creep into his reviews. Humor is nice too, but humor doesn't make a better review per say.

>QM Question

...Adventure? There's a lot of talking and mysteries for my players to solve... Also politics. But there's usually a fair amount of action when it comes around, as well.

I guess the primary focus of the quest is on mystery. There's a lot which has been kept from you (the MC) and much of the quest thus far has revolved around trying to deal yourself into a game of intrigue you know neither the rules for, or the condition to win.

>Player Question
Which Quest(s) are you currently binging/lurking/playing and would you recommend it to anyone else?
Almost all of the quests I followed regularly disappeared. Snakecatcher's still around, but it's ending.

>>449733

Sorry for being such a newfag, but i don't quite understand how to work in this board. It seems quite fun, and i think it might be nice to try this quest thingy. But i don't quite understand the rules. So...

How do i create a quest or take part in one?

Currently not taking part on any quest because as i said, i don't quite get it yet. But i think i would enjoy something to have with powers, mutants or fighters. Can you guys recommend me any?

>>449860
Kant-o-Celle is the best quest 4chan has ever seen.

Read that and nothing else.

>>449860
Read the pastebin links in the OP of this thread and read + lurk & participate in multiple quests for at least a month or two and then decide to run a quest in whatever way you think is fun.

>>449895
Why would you recommend something thats been abandoned?

>>449931
Cause regardless if Crusty is dead (maybe literally) or not it's still a good read that can get him accustomed to quests.

>>449044
>What moderation? I haven't seen any.
Run a smut quest and feel the ban hammer.

>>449895
It's such a shame it died after DUDE GRASS

That was the worst part of the quest desu

>>449860
Hey, I run Contractor Quest. I feel its a pretty easy, straight forward quest that would be great for a first timer. No mutants or super powers, but you do have a pair of cybernetic fingers, so maybe you'll count that as close enough.

Anyway, if you want to be a Polish spec ops guy turned private, I'd be happy to show you the ropes of playing through a quest live.

2+ choices have equal votes, QM does not want to combine them, so he makes a secondary vote for only those choices (usually on a rather short time limit), and the winner is the one that gets made.

>>450251
4chan replies don't let you reply with the same exact message twice for five minutes after the reply.

Therefore, say you got two choices. You tell them to copy exactly:
>1
>2

Now people who respond with >1 or >2 can't samefag the votes within five minutes, giving you a five minute window to check actual votes.

I don't think it'll be terribly useful for /qst/ considering IDs, and so people just samefag using different devices.

That actually reminds me.

Is the Touhou Quest where you're one of the Underworld's lackeys from 4Chan or is it from another board? Been years since its run, but I reckon it was probably one of the best Quests I'd seen.

Great CYOA format, lots of cameos.

Felt a bit like a Give Yourself Goosebumps book.

Was it from here or somewhere else?

It's called Touhou Underworld. There are two of them - one is with you as an assistant or wheelbarrow fixman to Rin and the other as an attendant to one of the Satori Youkais.

The one I'm referring to is the former.

The second one, I believe, is the one where Satori keeps you as a prisoner of her home, effectively - apparently the world outside her influence isn't so hot a place.

To reconfirm, it's not the one where Satori has you as her prisoner/attendant. I swear, that dude has a guro fetish.

It's the one where you're Rin's assistant/fixman. The last prompt, IIRC was the one where Okuu asks you if damnation would be enough to turn your loyalties to Rin over to another.

I would like to start a new, lighthearted quest based on the works of Key.

It would take place in the New time line created at the end of Clannad: After Story.....

In this new timeline........

Akiko, Sanae and Haruko have been friends since High School.

Akiko and Haruko helped Sanae deliver Nagisa,and were also there when Ushio was born.

The three towns in Clannad, Kanon and air were merged to form one small city, instead of three small towns.

At the end of Air, Mizuzu went to the Angel Beats world before the events of Angel Beats, where she meets Yui and Saiyuri Kurata's little brother and becomes friends with them.

Yukito's body went into a coma when his spirit went into the bird and returned to his body after Mizuzu died.

Ayu is out of her coma and is living at Akiko's house.

Makoto is living as Akiko's house.

Shiori is recovering from her illness, but is still weak.

Saiyuri and Mai are going to a nursing school in the large hospital in Clannad, which is adding new
buildings to deal with new new patients from the
town of Kami, the town of Air.
Kotomi will return to Japan sometime during the campaign.

In this campaign, several characters from Key are chosen to become magical girls. Their mission:

Gather magical orbs by helping people in their city to bring Mizuzu back to life.


They will be chosen & assisted by the four monks who cursed Mizuzi and who spend 1000 years constantly reincarnating as rats, roaches, mice, and other pest animals, while keeping their human minds and remembering all of Mizuzu's reincarnations for the past 1000 years.

They are told by an angel that the only way that they can be redeemed for their sins is to bring Mizuzu back to life. But because their souls are so tainted, they need the help of innocents to gather the orbs needed to bring Mizuzu back to life.

Enter the Wishmakers.

What do you think.

Of course he's got bias and personal tastes in the review. He's giving his opinion after reading the quests.

moderation seems restrained, which is good.


What is a good dice rolling system?
An essential part of many quests (next to the choice about what to actually do) is dice rolling - to spice things up, to make players actually fail for once. I have little idea about probabilities though. Why is the 1d100, best of three, system so popular? Why not use those old rpg 3d6 dice? I also feel that sometimes, QMs could've just let players fail without dice roll - or is that perceived as "railroading"?

>>450627
I think requiring people to know not just one, but several key titles AND magical girl stuff is a little bit excessive.

There's precedent for it, ie. Fate/Stay, but all the Key titles were deliberately standalone within their own continuities, and never encouraged knowing the others.

I dunno, you tell me how many people on qst know Key back to front. It's not like I expected all those DBZ quests to get sizable audiences.

>>450952
Personally I just use 1d6, following Roll to Dodge rules. Then again, my quest isn't very dice-heavy, simply using the dice to determine how well/badly a scene plays out.

heyo anon, ty for the reply

that sounds cool. what kind of anime quest would be best though? i'm guessing battle magic academy with waifus but perhaps there are better ones. i'm pretty flexible.

>>451213
Any kind of Anime draws players, but something with shonen elements and waifus especially.

>>451208
I think that was the plot to the scrapped MGR 2 game as well.

>>451194

>>451176
>I like Cosmic's reviews, but one big issue I have with them is that they barely, if at all, touch on the writing and the prose.

I thought that was why he tore apart wake up in westeros? Because the writing was bad in that it asked for far to much willing suspension of disbelief.

>>451218
ty man but define "crunchy" please because all i think about is crunchy cereal lol

>>451225
Number crunching. Lots of stats and rolling.

>>451225
Complex mechanics. Number crunching.

>>451225
Lots of numbers and dice rolls. See left beyond for an example of crunchy. Then see Samsara quest for an example of narative.

>>451225
"fluff" is the slang term for things like lore, and background setting information in tabletop games

"Crunch" is the mechanics , the dice rolls, rules. The math.

So, what kinda waifus do you guys like?

Me? I like the shy, struggling, no-nonsense that dealt with so much shit that they know which is the right way to go, but you can't lean on her cuz she's weak and hurt.

How long is a reasonable, and expected, amount of time to run sessions?

I'm often finding myself updating at random times throughout the day and night, and it just isn't cohesive to a quest community.

So again, what amount of time (say a few hours or so) is a reasonable 'quota' to set for myself? I love QM'ing so much more than playing, but at the same time I'm shit at consistent posting and want to rectify it

Maybe something is wrong with me but I can't get hype for quests with slow update speeds. Even if they have action in them its like, alright, here I am, autoupdate on for the past two hours, what the hell QM?
Don't bloody expect your quests to survive if they can't match an average imageboard posters' attention span. I'm here to funpost and eat junk food not wait two days for something bland to update and tell me to 'try another door,' fuck.
There's no point in even keeping a thread open in a tab since so many of these shits are unreliable.

Maybe we should make it tradition for the OP to post up the update speed they'll commit to.

I've personally had the opposite problem, like I want to post updates every half hour and I used to get replies within ten-fifteen minutes of posting but here everything is just so damned slow lol.

Then, you mah nigga.

I'm looking for a quest that I liked but can't find it in the archive. Could someone point me to a name? I should still be able to find the previous threads on foolz. Thanks.

I only read one thread, but I liked what I saw. It was a medieval setting and the MC had just gotten through ending a siege helping the attacking force from what I picked up. It hinted he used alchemy a lot, and he seemed to be newly contracted to be kings guard along with a handful of other characters. The thread had a duel between MC and another KG, it hinted she had some monstrous blood in her, so I guess the setting has magic as well. I think the thread ended with MC getting cheered up by a Princess and snow.

It would be impossible, all the non quest stuff would be shunted onto /tg/ with all the quest stuff because the mods have been removing forum games from the other non-/tg/ boards and dumping them here. We would probably need a few months just to get all the chaff this board has made off of /tg/ and all the anti-questfags would be crowing about the fact that we should have kept the board and moved everything they despise (model painting, storytimes, generals, drawthreads, quests and civ management) onto other boards.

At what point is taking traits from a character you liked in another story (issues like personality or outlooks on life) copying?

I'm writing a quest inspired by a pretty good show I've seen, and there's this one character I just desperatly want to be represented in this world because he just fits so perfectly for the theme. It's a struggle

Presence.

I'm not sure if it's an actual thing writing or storywise, but I love a character who can come into a scene and completely own it through the sheer presence of how they're characterized, what they do, and how they talk. When we look at villains, we love the best villains because of their ability to command and their ability to frighten, and that's presence. In the same way that the great heroes can command respect and honor from others as well.

I dunno, you could design a very physically appealing character and give them a very interesting backstory and a very interesting personality. But if they lack that certain presence, then I'll look for bestness elsewhere.

GUYS, is there an app or something that lets you know when someone posted on your quest? I'd rather hit it fast, but life and shit and asdasd

Hey. I'll be doing thread 2 of my Armored Core quest on Wednesday or Thursday. The delay is because I had to seriously rethink the game mechanics I wanted to use for the quest. Once I have that figured out, I'll make a twitter and we'll try it out.

For those interested, an update on the Paladin of Avalon is up.
http://anonkun.com/stories/the-paladin-of-avalon/-JRvxJl3loGBg9Bo64XE/26-rise-of-chaos/EgKvFY9PoHMsTcw4J

Just a quick, easy question- is it generally acceptable to post an update to your quest after there's only been a small number of responses in a long amount of time? Just wanna make sure I'm not jumping the gun on my quest by being too impatient.

>>452594
Yeah,, it's perfectly acceptable to continue with only one or two player inputs after a reasonable amount of time especially if your playerbase is small to begin with.

You're the guy running the witch quest I'm guessing?

You just seemed pretty nervous about running, and if this is you, you're doing a fan-fucking-tastic job, love the story so far and can see myself getting invested in your characters, you do a good job at bringing them to life.

You know why.

>This isn't quests

So I've been away from the quest scene since before the creation of /qst/, what's the deal with some quests still running on /tg/ and others running here?

>>453391
Since /qst/ was made under VERY dubious circumstances (i.e. minority of assholes were just complaining very loudly), the mods haven't made an official rule about where quests should go. So quests that run on /tg/ do so either out of familiarity or protest, and mods don't do anything to them; if somebody jumps into the quest to tell you to go to /qst/, you can report him. However, some people want to try out this questing thing, or try out /qst/, so they run here.

>>453402
Ah, I see. I'm just an old QM that was curious is all.

Any good quests going on right now?
inb4 >quests >good

>>453414
You mean on /tg/ or /qst/?

There's Bladebound Retainer by Kaz (it's supposedly good), Black Company Quest by Forgotten QM, Audit Quest is apparently good, and Hive Queen Quest is back on /tg/.

>>453414
Northern Beasts, Three Kingdoms, obligatory Banished.

>>453419
I always found Hive Queen to be too crunchy

>>453427
You can do what I do and just ignore the crunch and let someone else do it while I read the story bits and vote on the story bits.

>>453425
>Three Kingdoms
This is run by Raian, right? He's just using a different name.

>>453432
No idea. Could be. Could be a fan that imitated his work.

>>453430
Yeah but there really isn't that much substance if you don't vote on the crunch, then you're just reading these number charts and a smattering of fluff thrown in

>>453435
It reads like him.

I'd just like to thank all the players who showed up for the final matters of Snakecatcher! The Epilogue will be run tomorrow in the same thread.

>>453586
Congratulations, gonna take a break for a while after or run a new quest?

I hope I can reach Ending too, my quest is in the later parts of the plot

>>453586
Haven't slept a wink since I learned the quest is coming to a close.

Up to the 70+ threads. Will make it for the final epilogue.

A break then probably a new Quest. Eventually.

So uh, I'm currently running my first quest but I fear my characters are too similar. I usually assign each character a trait of mine. But that creates problems; to me, they all feel too similar to one another. Like small fractions of what I actually am. They become incomplete personas. Any advice on writing full characters with each to their own unique personalities? I could probably solve this my self by sitting down and creating a diagram for each character that outlines their core characteristics but I'd like to hear the opinion of others first.

stop trying to complicate a simple thing. steal your characters from games, books and tv; strip out their catchphrase and context. job done.

hell you could leave them unaltered. wouldn't it be an amazing shitstorm when players realise they got cold-opened into a who framed roger rabbit quest?

>>453896
Those have all happened to me atleast twice throughout the existence of /qst/

Don't want to be a faggot and stay at /tg/, but at the same time /qst/ is just draining my will to live/write.

If I see another " YOU COME INTO EXISTENCE WAT DO FISHTHING??!" I will livestream suicide from the sheer pain

>>454120
To be fair, all those things happen on /tg/ too it's just you get to see the dead threads for much, much longer on /qst/.

>/qst/ is just draining my will to live/write
qst/ is too slow for you? Shouldn't that make things less stressful for writers? I can understand >>451581 too though.

>>454162
The thing is the majority of questers here just saw the letters /qst/, clicked on it, and shit post cause they have no idea what's going on. The quality of conversation and discussion in /tg/ quests was and is vastly better in quality than those found here on /qst/. That's my biggest annoyance keeping me from diving into running this quest.

The update speed thing is the primary reason I don't follow many quests besides the odd QM or two on /qst/, this place is so fucking boring - and compounding that with the lack of any discussion most of the time, I really am having a hard time adjusting.

Yeah I think writers should use the slowness of /qst/ to take a little extra time to make sure their updates are good and meaningful as opposed to using the slowness to shit out an update and having the next one come out 'whenever I get around to it hours from now'

>>454162
>>454176
What would be a good time to post then? An hour?

>>454181
Problem is that people are constantly complaining that any quest that doesn't put out updates in a 20-30 minute window after the vote is over is too slow to bother following. It really ruins the ability for most QM's to slow down and take a little extra time to touch up on the writing in their updates.

>>454196
The people that want 20 minute updates are unreasonable unless they want SOMINUS tier, 'I write 5 sentences without too much thought in them' updates.

30 minutes to an hour is the sweet spot I feel. Maybe a little over an hour if the update is a fat one.

Also I think QMs should post updates as they write them. Like as soon as they hit 3000 characters post the first part of the update.

It gives the players something to look at and discuss/engage about whilst also saying 'I am not dead and am still writing'

>>454196
>Keep tab open
>Check back when it updates

I don't see how its a problem for people.

>>454202
>I don't see how its a problem for people.
Me neither, but people unfortunately still find reasons to bitch about it.

Depends on the quest. One way to engage is with dice roll requests too. An hour sounds good to me though.

>>454196
>extra time to touch up on the writing
And think about where a quest is headed and what can happen next. The thinking part is time consuming...
