question in regard to universal war: what are the cons in owning a bound devil? it seemed vague to me.
>>
>>50431058
Anything except the last option is horrible, I'm not even gay but I would still go in for that one.
>>
>>50430813
I don't get you. It would be so much faster to post the Sartre cyoa and pick whatever you want instead of posting all these metas every thread.
>>
>>50431156
IIRC, the Bound Devil is forced to follow your orders. Seeing how they probably wouldn't be too pleased, they might try to backstab you by proxy with betraying you and sabotaging your efforts subtly.
>>
So for Adventures in the Orient, should I put stats on armours and weapons like Titanlands, or should I just leave them statless?
>>
>>50431404
Statless.
>>
>>50431404

I don't know of many CYOAs with stats on items, but if you put stats on them people will pick the stuff that gives the stats they want, not what they actually like.
>>
>>50431270
i like collecting meta cyoas.
>>
>>50431404
Literal number stats would be too gamy imo.
>>
>>50431404
Statless I think is the way to go. Titanlands was gamed to all hell.
>>
>>50431404
Statless.

The problem with Titanlands is that the stats don't really mean much. There is no real standard as to what 5 or 2 or 9 means except for what you can vaguely infer from the companions' stats.

>>
>>50431517
But why? You don't even do them properly: You're supposed to use each cyoa on the next that is posted i.e. use meta 1 on meta 2, not use all your metas on one cyoa.
And then you post them yourself which you also aren't to do. You're cheating multiple ways, make it easier for yourself.
>>
>>50431670
nah you're supposed to reply saying which ones you picked, and then apply them on the first cyoa(s) posted after your post. i'm also not actually using them.

Would anyone make a version of this using the new sorcery types in the 2nd edition?

Also am I the only one who was seriously creeped out by how close this guy's guess was about the Eisen sorcery school. It's even named almost the exact same (Hexenwerk). This CYOA is from like, what, three years before the 2nd edition was even announced?

Also, Mirage should've totally been the Montaigne sorcery style. Porte is fucking boring and the restrictions on it make it so situational as to be useless most of the time.

Well I'm sorry I don't know everything about Greek mytho
>>
>>50432022
In the Odyssey, the titular hero introduces himself to a certain cyclops as "Nobody". A bunch of stuff happens later and Odysseus decides to kill the cyclops (who has taken him as a slave) to continue on his journey. He sneaks up on him using a trick and starts stabbing him in the eye. The cyclops, son of Poseidon, cries for his father to help smite the human, but he's crying "Help! Help! Nobody is killing me!", and naturally, the confused Poseidon does nothing.

There have been several. Ask yourself what you're missing from your life, and as long as others long for the same thing there should be a CYOA that appeals to you.

My grandma always loved folklore and mythologies from around the world. Her stories inspired me to start liking fantasy and the such. Now, I give her fantasy and science fiction books to read. She likes Neil Gaiman and Ursula LeGuin the most. I even got her into a bit of manga.

>>50433286

Da Michele has it right. You can have margarita or marinara, optional extra cheese, end of menu. Bottle of Peroni to go with it. Eaten on shared long tables in their cramped shop on a dodgy Napoli street prowled by street kids panhandling the tourists. Costs about five euro. Receive absolutely gigantic pizza. Eat. Then go home knowing that's it mate. It's all downhill from here. All other pizza suddenly tastes of cardboard, and all the worse for the faint, mocking resemblance to what you now know pizza can be.

I hear they've opened a branch in London. I'm not sure I want to try it. It'll never be as good as memory makes that other one.

Pick someone who's very different than you, genetically, and place careful limits on who can breed with who until you have a sustainable population. So son A gets paired with daughter A, son B gets paired with daughter B, son C gets paired with daughter C, and kids of the B pair can only get paired with kids of the A or C pairs.

As long as you don't have any serious genetic conditions and are very genetically different (I'd recommend someone from Eastern or Central Asia or Africa assuming you're European or American) it should be possible. Humanity's going to look a lot like you and your waifu/husbando, though.

Or the fact that she wants to force all her soldiers to fight WW2 in high heels.

Or use interwar and ww1 era tanks, ships and equipment

Or 18th century air pressurized rifles.

Or the fact that she doesn't have any airforce whatsoever.

I'm rooting for the orcs to liberate her people and give them a better life honestly.

If the people are reasonably genetically healthy, it's theoretically possible for them to breed an entire population.

Any mutations both the Adam and Eve have would be shared by the entire population, but any genetic deformity that arises more than a generation or two down the line would be rare enough that it wouldn't affect humanity on a large scale.

I mean, even if you have some shitty genetic deformity, your waifu's clear genes should keep humanity from dying out.

It isn't literally WW2, just stuff I thought looked cool from about that time. I wanted steampunkish/pulp feel. So the tech doesn't have to be super advanced or anything.

The issue with inbreeding is essentially that it has a tendency to increase the odds of the negative genes hidden dormant in your DNA to get passed on, where they would instead get bred out of the gene pool when mixing with someone genetically different from you.

If you had two people who have no history of gene-based sickness or deformities in their family tree then they could theoretically keep an inbreeding chain going for quite a while without any notable negative effects.

At least, that's my understanding of it.

"Genetic illnesses" aren't like infections, you know. There isn't a "genetic illness" virus inside your body that can be spotted and taken out. They are the result of interactions between otherwise benign and otherwise helpful genes causing unexpected results. Our knowledge of genetics is nowhere near advanced enough to look at a random string of genetic data and pick out where the disease comes from.

I own one gun for self defense, but I'm definitely not a gun or military person. So I don't really know about all that stuff. It's mostly stuff that looks cool and fits the theme. I don't think there's anything wrong with the halftrack, but I'm open to suggestions for a better boat. And I added the little thing under the halftrack to take up space, so I'd replace it if I'm missing a vehicle for some kind of important role. And the Hobbits are the people who inhabit most of the realm. If they're killed or enslaved, then who are the Dwarves going to rule over and look after?

DeLisles backed up by M50 Reisings is actually a fairly competent squad makeup.

It's not broken, it's just that it deals in terms of incremental kludges each helping in an incremental way rather than having some sort of grand purpose.

I suppose it depends on how super cereal you're taking the whole thing. Is it "I am designing a fictional fantasyland army but basing them off real weapons with the understanding that form follows function. However the internals are all assumed to be competent and worthwhile" or is it "Given unlimited cosmic power these are the specific real-world weapons I would choose with which to outfit my army of choice and damn the original contexts of these guns."

The latter would be fucked up. But also consider that militaries used inferior weaponry all the time for a large number of reasons. Now we can assume that with authorial power Angel does not have those limitations but she could just as easily write in post-hoc justifications for why they're the only options available.

Thanks! I did try to follow advice because I don't actually know much about military equipment.

>>50436161

Why can't the Delisle be the standard rifle for most Elves?

>>50436393

According to Google, that thing in the the lower right is a anti air gun on a truck. The "assault gun" is the tank on the right with a big gun on top instead of a rotating turret? Why can't that be my artillery? That's what I picked it for. It has a big artillery gun and tracks so it can move pretty fast. I can replace that little tracked vehicle in the lower center with a truck for transporting stuff since it's just there to take up space anyway. I already said I'm open to suggestions for better boats, but I don't think I need lots of different kinds since the war is on one big landmass and the Dwarves probably have sea stuff taken care of so they can protect their islands. And what exactly's wrong with the plane I picked?

Judging by how Angelanon is responding to all the criticism of her weapon and equipment choices, its probably more of the former than latter.
>>
>>50436697
i disagree, although unique does mean 1 of a kind, it could also just mean new. There's always going to be similarities or hell, exactly like someone else's if the universe decided to be cruel.

But if I design a culture of, I don't know, lizard women that worship peeing statues as the nectar of gods and drink it to become stone turning naga's, mostly humanoid women that can transform into snakes or a token to be offered to the statue as payment, i feel thats a little unique.

Allow me to play doubles advocate here for a moment. For all intensive purposes I think you are wrong. In an age where false morals are a diamond dozen, true virtues are a blessing in the skies. We often put our false morality on a petal stool like a bunch of pre-Madonnas, but you all seem to be taking something very valuable for granite. So I ask of you to mustard up all the strength you can because it is a doggy dog world out there. Although there is some merit to what you are saying it seems like you have a huge ship on your shoulder. In your argument you seem to throw everything in but the kids Nsync, and even though you are having a feel day with this I am here to bring you back into reality. I have a sick sense when it comes to these types of things. It is almost spooky, because I cannot turn a blonde eye to these glaring flaws in your rhetoric. I have zero taller ants when it comes to people spouting out hate in the name of moral righteousness. You just need to remember what comes around is all around, and when supply and command fails you will be the first to go.

Make my words, when you get down to brass stacks it doesn't take rocket appliances to get two birds stoned at once. It's clear who makes the pants in this relationship, and sometimes you just have to swallow your prize and accept the facts. You might have to come to this conclusion through denial and error but I swear on my mother's mating name that when you put the petal to the medal you will pass with flying carpets like it’s a peach of cake.

No no no no. All I said was "fairly competent" and to be honest that was a bit generous. Like if you told me that had been some country's standard issue armament during WW2 I wouldn't be surprised because people were up to all sorts of wacky shit. Mostly because simply nobody else could match the USA's industry and logistics so they were stuck with what they could buy, borrow, or steal, or just make do with their pre-/inter-war tech because it's basically impossible to overhaul your entire military's logistical infrastructure in the middle of a war. All that said, it's still inferior to other options.

If you want the best, buy American. M1 Garand, M1911, Thompson SMG, M2 Browning, M4 Sherman, P51 Mustang. These instruments won the war for a reason, though it wasn't always because they were best-in-role. But they usually were.
>>
>>50437784
Personally I would go with T-34-85 or T-44 instead of Sherman but I'm more than willing to admit that it might be due to their sexy lines.
>>
>>50437859
In all honesty, the T-34-85 and T-44 didn't perform that well in the Eastern Front even after the Soviets got their bearing.

They're overrated tanks that broke down more frequently than even german tanks and extremely shitty ergonomics, transmission and sights.

I don't care if it is Angelanon, the important bits you should be be worrying about about are the aesthetics. It could have the lines of the russian tanks, the ruggedness of the german tanks, built using american industrial techniques and powered by distilled misandry, what matters is the aesthetics.

Presumably, some amazon engineer channeled her sexual frustration into the innards, which may or may not match with how the real-world inspiration was built.

So I guess I should ask. Do people here not find an update of lore/background/world building very interesting? I was thinking of having something like this DLC in the next CYOA I did but given the fact that no one here has submitted any ideas I'm thinking it might be a bad/boring direction. Feedback would be greatly appreciated!

I enjoyed it. I've read and re-read it. I just don't have anything to contribute.

The only idea I had was something like:

"This planet was created when a Ship decided to take a planet with roughly 3x Earth's mass and re-create the conditions that were present on the original Earth. The purpose was to see what would happen if all all the possible species that could have existed, existed together. This world has a twin: a planet that is made to see if it is possible to re-create Humans, Neanderthals and all other extinct Homo sapiens branches, but 'naturally'. This means re-creating the mass extinctions, and everything else."

How does that work?
>>
>>50438744


>"This planet was created when a Ship decided to take a planet with roughly 3x Earth's mass and re-create the conditions that were present on the original Earth.

During its various periods, but focusing primarily on the time before Humanity made its appearance*.

Also this could actually be a small solar system consisting of only planets stuck in various time-periods. Like this one planet is Permian, that one Triassic, and so on. In terms of the greater environment. Species are allowed to develop and compete on their own.

Yeah that's pretty neat. Reason I asked was just because I figured there are lots of creative people in /cyoag/ so I was a bit surprised that no one was throwing out any ideas or fluff bits. Started thinking maybe it was the format or the idea of a bunch of people submitting some fluff that wasn't going over well.

>>50438848
I like the lore additions plenty, I think they work very well given the nature of the first part, but I don't necessarily feel the need to share my thoughts or anything.

Plus, a lot of the fun of CYOAs is working within the framework and limitations that someone else sets, so offering feedback beyond just number or cost tweaks can feel wrong, I don't really want to influence or change the creator's vision, especially when it's one that I've enjoyed quite a lot so far, like this one.

But then I'm sort of a lurker who only posts on occasion.
>>
>>50439057
Yeah that's what I kept thinking about. I was having fun writing up background for the setting myself and though it'd be interesting to put it together in a "CYOA". That's why I had it ask for a brief fluff idea/picture to make it more interactive since you couldn't really post a build to it.

Most people meet me are both strangely attracted to me and unsettled by me. It's to be expected - I look like a caricature of a human. Very tall, but thin, with golden skin that glows from withing and long white-blonde hair. My face is a beautiful kind of androgynous.

My powers don't help with this. I can manifest great light powers to illuminate and dazzle (or vaporize), but most of my powers lie in manipulating the minds of monsters and people. This makes the culling a breeze, no one has ever touched me. Monster hunts are similarly easy, even though I only go up against the biggest and baddest monsters. If I can't handle anything, I'll recruit some other hunters to help, then 'convince' them to let me have the kill.

I have one of the better houses in town and access to most amenities. Life is pretty good for me.

Hmm I didn't really think about it from this perspective. I've always thought that CYOAs are a shared day dream so I wanted to make a DLC that asked for similar ideas for a future update to kind of reflect that shared aspect
>>
>>50434622
This one always falls apart for me because I can't resist taking the sex bot.

I guess the ideal choice would be to take Companion II, the Dark Girl, learn what you can from her, and trade her away since she doesn't like you anyway. Then again, I guess I'd always be worried she'd take it personally and come back to kill me. Or maybe I'd be hooked on the power she brings.

Regardless, the beautiful island domain and the free house are options I couldn't pass up. I suppose I could be convinced to go to another Domain, but living comfy as a dark magic user with a sex bot in an island paradise with a secret awesome house sounds amazing

The Dunmer are hardly pantheistic. They're polytheistic. They have two different sets of three gods worshipped in two different time periods. Which, I suppose, is kinda similar to the Trimurti in Hinduism but the similarities basically end there.

lewd stories featuring them and their Human and all the things they want to do together. The Ships that do contribute to that section push out about 100 stories a day. The reason Humans are banned is because once (before there was a fanfic section) a Ship told their Human some of the stuff they wrote (one story in particular about a particular follicle of hair they found lovely) and the Human said it was kinda creepy.
>>
>>50439474
It's a DLC to a prior CYOA. If I edited it to say choose 1 location to visit would you read it then?
>>
>>50438556
The CYOA that supplement is pointing to was okay at first, but as time went on I began to dislike the premise more and more so now I don't care for it at all. Keep in mind this has nothing to do with the recent page but the overall idea of the CYOA. An added page with things in the world can be done well.

At the same time, a lore supplement also seems self-defeating. Expanding solely on the world without giving the audience a choice pertaining to it looks like "Oh yeah there are all these other things in the universe too". Literally anything could have been in it to begin with due to it being undefined and therefore able to be shaped by the player's creativity, so why define them? To share your ideas of course, but when what is and isn't there could be anything it doesn't add to the CYOA, just sort of vaguely circles areas and tells you they're there. If you want lore and worldbuilding in your CYOA, it should ideally be there in the first place. That's my opinion.

That's why I asked for people to submit their own ideas to make it a shared thing but I understand where you're coming from.
> If you want lore and worldbuilding in your CYOA, it should ideally be there in the first place.
I think there is a lot of worldbuilding that can't be done just by introducing it in a bundle of choices. I've thought about the idea of lore and CYOAs a lot. Like a lot of rpg books have a small story before section section or a small fluff piece on a page just randomly. Those obviously don't really fit for a CYOA. The problem in my mind is you can't really make what location you go to a choice. So I figured doing traveler did and just having a list of locations would be neat.

> dislike the premise more and more so now I don't care for it
Mind telling me why?

>>50439569

No, it's a lore dump. There is no choice. I would probably read it if it was a CYOA, yes. Right now it isn't.

Is there any choice in what places you go in traveler or did that section not interest you as well? Not trying to be rude or anything. I was going to include a location in the next CYOA I did (occult college thing I think) but I was not expecting a response like yours to a "lore dump"

Barring >>50436547's exploit (which assumes you can actually beat them), the best build is II, II, II, and anything but IV.

The companion would take the trade better than the others would (no trust to betray, plus superhuman recovery), the boon and item synergize well, and the item gets the best spellbook out of the deal. Furthermore, the absolute drawbacks are the easiest to deal with - just waifu some other person with your build instead of your companion, suffer 1/400th of your life without legs, and endure your companion being somewhat grumpier at you.

The domain is mostly up to personal preference - the paradise domain is really comfy, but doesn't offer too much else, the fantasy domain has one big threat that's straightforward (if difficult) to beat, and the tech domain is a lot more complicated to fix but has more luxuries.

The best results would come from a mix of all three of the domains (directly or indirectly) sharing knowledge, resources, and manpower to stop each of their respective threats.

My personal build would be a full run of IIs, gathering magical knowledge and favors until I can fight the aliens with spells, divine help, and support from other domains. After that, I'd try to skirt the rules and find some way to develop my domain from inside, probably by bringing information from the real world and Tech domains inside via period-accurate media (or people with Companion III) before starting an Industrial Revolution and going on from there.

A game about being a crime lord in a low fantasy city. Collecting protection money, selling drugs, bribing the guards. Deciding how you handle your henchmen, either as a father figure (or loving matron) or a ruthless sociopath, letting those who fail himbe executed by the guards.

And you're in the shadows, in the background. Or a noble. Or rich merchant. Point is, you don't touch anything directly, and few know who you are ... if they knew, you'd probably be hanged, unless someone managed to arrange a daring escape.

And please, please: Have multiple poisons for different occasions and uses.

This is the first time I've ever posted anything about this CYOA. I don't even dislike it in a "wow how can anyone enjoy this" kind of way. I can see why people do, it just isn't for me. I'm not trying to take away what you enjoy, Anon, but I am telling the author what I think because they asked for opinions. I typically don't voice them otherwise, and I especially ignore WIPs because I despise the idea of them, so I'm not sure what you can mean by "people like you".

>>50439790
You can actually visit the myriad Hubworlds in Traveller, and more because that whole multiverse is so huge. It's not a choice on the same scale as the others which define you, but you do choose what Traveller project to help them work towards. Those are much more like job postings and ongoing projects/wars than things to see.

The obsessive nature of the ships compounded with not being able to leave or experience the world outside of it, working the same types of jobs for who knows how long, turned me away. It just sounds like a nightmare that I wouldn't survive with my sanity intact no matter how you spin it or what kind of VR you choose. I wouldn't put myself through that. Others would, but not me, so I don't.

This is interesting. Why did the AI interpret that image as a CYOA? It's not as if it has access to source files so it can't just decide that it has X amount of layers and therefore must be a CYOA. There's barely even any text on that. The parameters it uses must be really... strange because I've never seen it do this before. I-Is it evolving further? Is this the future captchas have brought upon us?

Nah, I think it runs on a neural network, and it interprets a group of distinct but similar images as a choice category.

Of all the comfy CYOA's, I actually like this one the least. Not that it's flawed, its just that the concept dosen't appeal to me. My escapist fantasies need an endpoint, something to fantasize about. This is just recursive, a fantasy about having a place to fantasize in.

Did I miss something in the IRC, because I definitely don't recall this episode of /cyoag/, and I've been a part of most of them. I would much sooner equate Kit to being an extremely clingy waifu that would kill themselves if you abandoned them than that. You could easily replace him with Angelanon, but I don't think the one for Bliss works very well at all because it's more in the context of one specific CYOA and doesn't come up nearly as often as the others.
