With the recent release of NieR Automata, one of my friends expressed interest for playing a tabletop game set in the Drakengard/NieR universe. Are there any sort of homebrew systems for it already made? I looked into it, but couldn't find any. What sort of system would fit best for an adaptation?
>>52251275
Try GURPS, you can download the lite version of the rules for free.
>>52251275
A Drakengard/NieR game would be less about the system and more about how well the DM can throw players off.
Depends on if you want NieR or Drakengard. Cause Nier is post-apocalyptic magitech, while Drakengard is Berserk esque dark fantasy

CYOA General

I'll contribute.
Update for some reason. Added a couple of things that I couldn't decide if they were OP or not, but I like the idea of them, so I added them.
Re posting question from last thread:
Do your prefer CYOAs that allow for as much choice as possible, or ones that are specialized yet more polished?
Some CYOAs like the famous Necromancer one, are small and polished, but loved by everyone. Some of the large worldbuilders and also famous, while being generally unfocused. Other CYOAs are far TOO focused to appeal to anyone but a very select group, and suffer for it. Others play themselves too large and excel at nothing.
So is less more when designing a CYOA, or is it choice above all? Obviously there's a balance to the two extremes, so share your thoughts about this dichotomy of choice vs niche.I'm currently planning some OC now, so advice for a creator's perspective is also especially helpful.

I fucking hate this meme.
Greetings /tg/!
Let’s talk about puzzle doors.
In this thread, let’s have discussion, stories, or examples of cool or interesting puzzle doors any of you might have made, played, or seen.
I am thinking of doors more interesting than the old, “Speak friend, then enter.” riddle types, but who am I to judge?
Forever ago, I got to thinking about the classic puzzle seen in Labyrinth and countless other scenarios:
The protagonist is presented with two doors and must select the correct door to proceed forward.
Often there is some sort of guardian, or two, that will give clues, truths, or lies.
I came up with my own twist for the door to my antagonist mage’s tower.
I quickly realized that it didn’t really make sense for the villain, and changed it for a more dynamic version.
So my door remained untested.
Until now.
I will now present 3 doors that I have created to you, /tg/, in the hopes that you rate them.
My presentation of them might be quest-like, but this is *not* a quest for the following reasons:
1. It’s just getting through a door, that’s it.
2. I specifically want /tg/’s appraisal of these doors and am not interested in questing
3. There is virtually no chance of a waifu appearing.
4. Discussion of all things door related is welcome and encouraged.
5. Because.
>>52250349
I pick the mystery box.
Alright, first scenario:
>You, the PCs, have followed the Villainous Mage to his tower.
>He enters the front door and closes it behind him.
>You approach the door and hear him speak a Password on the other side.
>You open the door and find a small stone room, with two doors opposite the one you entered.
>Between the two doors, there appears to be a crude animated Face made out of the stone wall.
>The Face regards you as you enter and close the door behind you.
>The Face speaks:
>”Greetings, visitors. Speak the password while touching the handle of the correct door and you may then enter unharmed.”
What do you do?
>>52250399
I grab both handles and speak the password, hoping there's no electric current running between them.
GREETINGS CITIZENS OF ALPHA COMPLEX
I HOPE YOU ALL ARE HAPPY.
HAPPINESS IS MADATORY.
UNHAPPINESS IS TREASON
TREASON IS PUNISHABLE BY DEATH
>>52249985
How i can i know the being unhappy is punishable by death?
I already know you lied about not being a robot.
>>52250041
FRIEND COMPUTER NEVER LIES
TO BELIEVE THAT FRIEND COMPUTER IS A LIAR IS TREASON.
TREASON IS PUNISHABLE BY DEATH.
I have suicidal depression so this setup is pretty much a win-win
Say /tg/, tell me, which of these options do you think is best.
1. The trational option, where elves are arrogant and haughty, live in palaces in the woods, while the dwarves drink beer, grow long beards and mine too deep.
2. Elves still have long ears and long lives, and dwarves are stil short and have beards, but the elves sail around and rape and pilliage all they can, while the dwarves are mostly farmers lorded over by a small aristocracy and thier warrior retainers.
3. Fuck the elves and dwarves, switch them out for sentient plant people and large blue furred four armed dogmen.
So traditional, keep the physical description but change the culture, or throw the out for something new.
All himan worlds suck.
And yes it depends on the setting, this being a key point of the setting.
>>52249977
Three I guess, but why dogmen?
>>52250019
Random example
>>52250033
Why not molemen to replace dwarves?
I want to know what this persons story would be. Any thoughts or ideas?
>>52249937
He's a fop who got robbed and shot by bandits. Now he's suffering from internal bleeding off the road in the God's Large Intestine region because he's a fucking moron who travels alone with thin armor.

So far I'd say he's fuckin' dead.

How would a game like D&D be if it was set in the hood?
like, would be called G&G Ghettos and Gangsta's?
i never understood the pacifier shit
wtf was with that
>>52249863
It's probably a ring pop.
>>52249876
nah it's a pacifier.
i'm guessing it's popular in the west coast
At exactly 12:00 PM, every anon that has posted on 4chan in the last three months receives a warning in a deep, unnatural voice, it says
> "You have two hours to prepare."
Before disappearing. You innately sense that you will be teleported to another world, much like earth, with an ecosystem reminiscent of prehistoric earth, and a great many abandoned, and empty ruins that haven't been occupied for at least a century.
You will be able to take 200 pounds of anything you can carry, or one person you know personally and 100 pounds of anything you can carry, with you.
When the anons are teleported, each board will receive 250 miles of untamed wilderness, with a moderately sized ruined city, containing the bare minimum needed to kickstart a medieval level civilization, to themselves.
/diy/ gets its own land, /pol/ gets its own, etc. Each anon will be teleported to the territory of the board they browse and post most frequently in, if they're divided in their posting, they go to the board they favor most.
> What, or who, do you take with you, and what is your plan to survive and start civilization?
> /pol/ gets its own
We immediately collapse when we find out that there is only one white person amongst us all, and he's a CIA agent.
>>52249766
But WHERE is it twelve PM?
>>52250251
Every anon hears the voice at 12:00 PM their local time, but with time shenanigans we all end up in our respective lands at the same time anyway.
whats the difference between psychics and mages in your games?
>>52249691
Mages live in the fantasy settings and psychics live in the soft sci-fi settings.
>>52249691
What they usually end up getting convicted for.
>>52249691
Psychics are the vegans of the magic world, in terms of attitude.
What would be a good system to run a Samurai Jack-esque campaign?
Jackposters are getting as annoying as JoJoposters.
>>52249567
A system built for stylized, episodic, combat-heavy games.
We had a MYFAROG thread yesterday, just got my copy in the mail and hope to be playing within the month.
I know it's a meme around these parts, but does anyone here actually enjoy the game?
>>52249256
Fuck off back to /pol/ Christian.
Please, just give up already, you fuckhead.
These troll threads are so pathetic, and you're such an obvious faggot in the way you bump them.
>>52249256
If you're from /pol/, yes. If not, no.
I mean that honestly. The game is such a mess mechanically you'd have to real dedicated to your white supremacist schtick to actually enjoy it.
Incidentally, if you DID actually buy it and aren't a troll (which you are) WHY the hell did you? Was the meme status too subtle for you?

Does output/power scale directly to the amount of mana you have in Fate? With the Dragon Core are you automatically 30 times more powerful than Rin?
For the Astlan jumpmaker if they are still here could we choose to have our demon form look different to the base red muscled guy with horns if we buy the perk that makes us an Arch Demon?
>>52246966
I don't care about the Death Knights, but are you keeping that Dreaming In Green perk you posted ages ago? The one that gives each jump an Emerald Dream?
