Your self insert hops between worlds, gaining momentum as they start getting involved in larger scale shenanigans the further they get along.

>>50607153
Multiverse reincarnation/Insertion guide to end up in an available setting (Jumps) of your choosing with more Jumps being created as time progresses.

Or lots and lots of self-inserting and getting powers and other goodies from different places.

So Jumpers, what do you do when you have more than 8 companions?

>>50607292
Ignore the companion limit.

>>50607292
Regret having this much waifu, resolve to ignore the companion limit, end up only bringing way less than 8 out of the House of Mystery/Nomanisan Island/Etc to do shit during jumps.

>>50606045
Are there multiple magic systems in Hero BBS that we can choose from? To put it another way, are there different types of Magician like how D&D has different types of spellcaster: wizards, sorcerers, mystics, warlocks, etc?

Basically you do a jumpchain cyoa like >>50607255 and then do another one and keep all the abilities you bought and continue until you get bored or do one of the jumps that are meant to be used as an end to the jumpchain, like Gurren Lagann, Tenchi or DBZ.

Technically you're supposed to start with the Pokemon jump by Quicksilver as that was the very first jump made. Then you do supplements for the warehouse and body mod which give you additional stuff to take with you.
All of the jumps are in the google drive:

>>50607324
There are quite a few but they don't go into much detail, the whole thing is just about the heroes shitposting on interdimensional 4chan.

>>50607324
Pretty sure the Sage rewrites an entire world's magic system because it offended him with how much it sucked, I'm going to say there are probably lots of them.

Sonic Classic updated! Guardian perkline completed (knock knock, is knuckles) and Conqueror outline drafted

Take a look!

Also, I'm thinking of offering replica Emeralds a la what Tails made in the later games. as the actual canon emeralds are capable of some stupid shit when you get down to it

>>50607292
I only have eleven, so two are permanent part of the team (Lapis and the Clone from GUNNM), and I divided the rest into groups of three, and whatever two groups fit more are imported, while the last group gets a break on Nomanisan Island or my Animal Crossing Town, and can switch out with active companions at any time.

>>50607153

Some super god called the Benefactor offers your character (usually a self-insert since it's the easiest, but other people fabricate their own from scratch) a deal, and if you take the deal, they then send your character on a multiversal adventure across different settings.

Each setting or "Jump" operates as its own CYOA where you can pick/purchase your origin (basically an incarnation of yourself in the world) Perks (powers, skills and abilities based on the setting) and Items (self-explanatory) using a point allotment received at the start of a Jump (usually 1000CP, though you can take Drawbacks to receive more points at the cost of varying challenges).

After your time in the world is up, you can either go home, stay in that world or move on to the next. Time is frozen in your homeworld and other worlds you've been too as you Jump, so you don't have to worry about "going missing" or something in your homeworld.

Everything you purchased carries over to your next Jump. Leftover points do not, neither do Drawbacks. It's part game, part writefag prompting due to the numerous settings people can visit and scenarios that can pop up in the process.

>>50607417
Meh, Why would I waste points on weak replicas?

I'm sure a fair amount of people decided they were gonna bomb the shit out of the Navi and rip the Unobtanium from the ground. Not me, because the RDA were kind of dicks. So... I don't hold any loyalty to dicks? There's other ways to do it. So, what's gonna happen? Imagine the Na'Vi reaction to a human figure in black armor, smoke flowing from their feet and optics burning red. They not only know how to speak the language, but also understand how to mess with the technology the otherworlders possess. Introducing themselves as a demon spawned from humanity's greed and selfishness, dragged with them across the stars. They promise not to interfere with any of their customs... but will work to prevent their home from being destroyed. Using a giant fucking robot in order to do so.

Cue the song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clNe1IoVN0M

It is a cyclic nature that drives Man to take what is in front of him. He reaches, reveling in what he has obtained, only to fall into the pits of fear upon convincing himself that it is not enough. This fear makes him search frantically for more of what he has found, and once he has achieved this short-sighted goal the cycle begins anew with a greater desire driving him.

But what will happen once his desires consume him? What will happen should the very thing he lusts for disappears into the unknown, consumed in a mindless frenzy? Yet Man never stops to think of this, for the fear that answer brings is one he refuses to confront. He convinces himself that there will always be more, and that it is his right to take what he seeks, blinded to what he does to the world around him.

Pull yourself away! Remember that this was not always your path! You once sought to preserve your world and care for the people who inhabited it, deeming it an intregral part of Humanity. Wake up from this cycle, and remember what you have forsaken for your ravenous greed! Open your eyes to what you have left behind!

Do not let your demons become your end.

Can the person you'd Sod the World for be a companion you're already in a relationship with? I figure she'd be ok with it, even if the rest of the world doesn't appreciate me doing crazy stuff to protect her.

I'm generally a fan of body horror and pick up those kinds of perks whenever I get the chance,

But what possible perks or combination of perks would it take to pull off this kinda shit?

>>50607449

1. CP insurance
2. You don't have to really go through a bunch of hoops for the actual thing and usually a weak replica will suffice.

>>50607255
The description of the House of Mystery doesn't mention being able to let inactive companions roam around in it. It also has two 'final notes' in the description.

>>50607571
Eh, sure. You're going full Yandere, though. Hope they like that.

>>50607540
I said why, not who.

>>50607614
Suffice for what? There's better stuff out there without having to spend points. They're just an all around inferior object. Like trying to make your knife with copper when there's iron right there.

>>50607292
Use sub companions to fill in the rest of the numbers.

I don't really see how my post is aggressive or insulting. He asked a question, I asked why. Someone followed up with their explanation, I posted my disagreement. You're going to have to tell me where I whined about nerfing or whatever the fuck you expected, or where I even asked to be able to buy the emerdoods at all.

The jumper inn from basalisk lets your companions enter the world, but they can't leave the property of the inn.

Toriko has some sort of bird robot thing, IIRC, so they can be there by proxy. Xenoblade X might be able to pull something similar.

There's a perk in some gun based jump - tf2 or counterstrike or that halo show by roosterteeth - that bumps it up to 9, IIRC.

Thats all I can think of.

>>50607663
The alternative drawback would mean I'd be a dick. Yandere she'd tolerate, but being a dick is right out.

How does the perk sharing perk from Imaginary friends play with stacking perks?

Like, FISS and that charisma perk from harvest moon(?). You can theoretically buy them a few dozen times, so can I grant them to the same person endlessly?

If I recall, there probably wouldn't be a point to granting FISS more that 7 times due to diminishing returns, but being able to do so seem useful.

>>50607769
Up to you to wank, since I have a feeling the original jumpmaker is gone. If you want to use it to stack perks infinitely go ahead, just don't stuff it down anyone's throat.

>>50607769
I'd say that it just gives them what you purchased once, but I'm not the jumpmaker.

>>50607732
If I recall correctly, that's Venus, goddess of the "space" half of spacetime.

>>50607732
It's Venus, one of the trinity, she was one of the possible indiegogo characters. I'm pretty sure that all this freaky shit is a result of her own godlike parasite.

That being said, I don't know if even an artificial parasite would be capable of all this, maybe with out of jump genetic perks

Hey, grasping on to the tenuous strand of conversation about Undertale, anyone have any idea how to companion Chara? Like, is there a way to separate her(?) and Frisk without the wisps of her(?) soul disappearing into the ether?

Alternatively; any good ways to drive Frisk bugfuck homicidal insane?

You mean the same people who think putting a fiat-block on DW tech was unjustified? No, fuck that.

>>50607794

Cool. Wish she'd made it into the game as a playable character.

>>50607828
Out of morbid curiosity I have to ask Link?

>>50607745
You didn't really give me a reason other than "They're not STRONG enough"
when the full Emeralds are by canon damn near unlimited power
That's not just in-universe wank either, there's little we see them NOT capable of. Time Travel, Actual reality warping, infinite fonts of energy...Apologies if I see "well if they aren't the infinite stones of power they're useless" and go "well, I'm not sure I think your parameters for what's useless or not are skewed right".
Saying "there's better things out there in other jumps" is also gross interjump balance. By that logic I should bump up the superspeed to mach infinite or something because you can get the Speed Force in some way or form in other jumps
or that I should give you perfect technology understanding because any of the overhyped Worm powers exist

in the CONTEXT OF SONIC THE HEDGEHOG, even the replica emeralds are enough for 90% of what you'd use a Chaos Emerald for in most situations I.E energy source and a catalyst for the Super form.

The only reason, at least in my eyes, that they wouldn't be desirable in comparison to the real Emeralds is because you want something that is considered on par with the unlocked Infinity Stones on purchase or would rather just grab the real ones and leave if you're going to pull the "waste points" card

I.e "There's better things in other jumps" is not a valid reason for one thing to be bad in its own jump, get a better one. If you don't want to grab it, Whatever. But that reasoning alone doesn't really convince me that they're not a good idea.

>>50607820
Technically it has been for a while now, but it was kind of shit so we ignored it. Cthulhu apparently helped a bit a while ago, and somebody liked a post about it or something, so he decided to take another whack at it.

Amazingly enough, after looking at it, I don't actually want the gamer power. The drop in tree is glorious. Just make sure to hit up monopoly first.

>>50607818
All I know is her name, sorry.

>>50607417
Please be nice with your drawbacks Digger-senpai. I'm already in the negatives from just the perks.

>>50607695
Sometimes a cheap knockoff will do. You'd be surprised how far store brand can carry you.

>>50607891
Thank you in advance then.

>>50607868
Wow, who pissed in your cheerio's today?

Quick question for any sience-y jumpers, how do (non-cp bought) modifications to your own biology work? Either through genetic modification or implants.

Do they carry over between forms or do they just kind of go away and come back when you return to that form?

Does your biology even allow those types of changes?

Do they function with bodily perks?

I'm just curious to know any stuff like that

>>50607854
It's not even fiat-blocked. It just says the Doctor will kick you out of the TARDIS if you try it.

>>50607842

>>50607891
There's a link to a Gdoc on... God, where was it... Jumpchain thread, obviously... Page... 1040. ish. 1044? 1045? Somewhere around there.

>>50607854
Pretty sure there was a post on SB where Cthulhu mentioned having to nerf things to fit /tg/ standards, so it's pretty much to be expected that unless he says explicitly that he's not going to post it in /tg/, the jump is for /tg/.

>>50607868
I said I didn't see why someone would buy them. I didn't ask you to put in anything, not even the real emeralds. I just didn't see the point in the fake ones. That's a different issue entirely. It's an inquisitive question, not a demand, or suggestion. Don't act like it is and use that assumption to get offended.

...

Fucking seriously?

It doesn't say "jump end" or "you won't be allowed to move on with this," it's just canonically The Doctor trying to prevent technology from getting where he feels it shouldn't? Like he does with SEVERAL of his human companions?

THIS is what gets people riled up about Doctor Who?

>>50607934
>mentioned having to nerf things to fit /tg/ standards

kek. What?

He hasn't even posted anything for review yet.

>>50607950
Anon.

Anon calm down.

>>50607934
People try to do this to him for some reason. New Bleach is this way because he KNOWS we won't accept it, and GH is that way because he KNOWS we won't accept it.

Asshole anons take this to mean that everything he makes is this way. Which, unless said claim is paired with a pic related of him actually saying so, should not be believed.

>>50607868
Not him and I don't really agree with it but a more reasonable argument for anon's position is that it would be easy enough, for a jumper at least, to get their hands on the real ones. This would make buying them a poor choice as the real thing can be acquired with effort instead of far more valuable CP.

>>50607804

let me count the ways

>Super transformation: invincibility, super strength, unlimited flight, control of chaos energy which can do the following shit
>Time control and time travel with at least 2
>Instant unlimited teleportation with at least one or two
>Reviving the deceased
>Various abilities to tear open rifts in time and space to do basic attacks a la Sonic Battle
>using said Time/space regression to heal wounds or create barriers
>Infinite fonts of power. Literally their stated ability is to transform thoughts into power

Even if we only count classic feats, it is already said/given that the Emeralds could transform thought to power here

>>50607883
I'll see what I can do. I've still got items to think of here
>>50607889
As mentioned in my earlier post, for 90% of what is unique about emeralds is preserved in the replicas. They even let you do chaos control and similar if you know how to use it already, technically. Plus, yeah, super mode

>>50607866

>>50608007
see >>50607948

>>50607842

My best bet is to make them a body their soul can inhabit, since souls need a physical object, either a body, inanimate object, or a flower to inhabit.

You'd probably be more successful at it than Alphys was, come to think of it, if you don't use Monster Dust to make the body for them to inhabit.

>>50607979
My argument isn't even about being able to get the emeralds. There wasn't much of an argument until he started throwing accusations, I made a statement that I didn't see the point. I, as a jumper, wouldn't spend points on an item that is quickly outclassed and can be lost. I'd spend my points on perks which have wider or more esoteric uses and will be longer lasting even if weak since they can stack. Then I'd just pick up a better energy source elsewhere. So, as a jumpmaker, I wouldn't include them as items. That's really the source of my opinion. I don't care for and never asked to be able to buy the real emeralds. Not once.

>>50607994
>Ignoring my actual post.
And this makes me think you just WANTED to get offended.

>>50607955
I assume it's not finished then?

>>50608019
For someone who only has an opinion you're really trying to push it, fampai.

>>50608043
How dare he try to explain himself huh? He should totally just roll over and accept all the shit and accusations

>>50608043
No, I'm posting it in full to dispel any misconceptions about what I think, what I wanted, and what my goals are. You'll notice that you didn't even get this spiel about my opinion until after several accusations which then REQUIRED me to post it.

>>50608013
I should have refreshed the page after searching for the link. Main things I want from it is the Magic Maker perk and the evolving skills thing.

>>50608007
The drop in tree. GLORIOUS.

I mean, it's almost wholey item and money based, but i've been thinking about doing a chain based around money perks, so I fucking love it.

Money powered reality warping.

>>50608007
He's going to have a lot of problems once the real story arc shows up, and a lot of the fluff that he's using is pretty much going out of date extremely fast as the author retcons some of the existing material to suit the new stuff, like creating Gods, the powers of the Old Ones, the Gamer's ability having shifting boundaries, other Gamers, and so forth.

The "top" abilities that he's using right now have also been confirmed to be pretty low tier, since a new faction of God Slayers has shown up with the real story arc starting off. Presumably he's going to have to update the document accordingly, or he's just going to say "I'm going to ignore this, as well as the other three universes the Gamer is tied to".

For a person who doesn't actually follow the Gamer this looks fine, but that could honestly be said about every jump that either him or SJ has made.

>>50608052
Just like the jumpmaker should accept what he's being told at face value and let anon dictate what he place in his jump. Which is "something actually useful and not worthless."

>>50608019
Do you buy items? Ever? Do you think items are only worth CP when they're explicitly better than anything like them you can get in the setting?

Seems you have a disagreement with a particular part of jumpchain, and unfortunately you're running into people getting aggressive about an attack on a jump when you're really just stating your thoughts on a facet of the chain in general.

>>50608066
What three other universes?

>>50607906
Typically I house rule they do keep with each form unless I don't want them too. (Although I use magic to smooth out any funky weird biology stuff that could happen--I've spent a good portion of jumps just mastering and experimenting with magic for this purpose.)

>>50607417
I don't really think you should add replica emeralds since those were in later sonic games and would probably fit much better in the theoretical modern sonic jump.

However since you're basing drop in off dummies out content the 8th debug emerald from s3&k or the extra one from sonic the fighters would be a good replacement in my opinion

>>50608078
Again you come back to accusations. Is the concept of 'middle ground' just impossible to you?

>>50607904
It's a lil annoying when you're trying to make a decent jump and you're getting the impression that the marker for quality is "what does this give me that is more powerful than whatever other jumps give"
I had a similar issue when I heard someone say "I wouldn't buy any superspeed perk below mach 10" in another thread because my only thought is "Then don't jump it, or don't buy the perk?"
It kinda communicates that your interest in the jump or what you get is only tied to if it's better than anything else you can get.
It's not necessarily the anon's fault, I just kinda took it wrong because of tiny bits and pieces that make it kinda hard to get motivated for a jump that I feel nobody's gonna give a shit about when I'm done

Already happened with Endless Frontier

>>50607938

Yeah, yeah. I kinda blew it out of proportion a bit. It just DID kinda feel like an implied "There's nothing in this jump worth taking"
and it just smacked of entitlement to things that are powerful and unique rather than just saying "I don't see the point"
You're right, it isn't a demand for anything, but it does imply that the only other thing emeralds are needed for(i.e Super form, and one of the capstones interacts with said form) would be covered by the canon emeralds
which in turn implies they're grabbable for out of jump purposes
which I plan for them not to really be for reasons I've outlined earlier

>>50608111

...Oh, man, you're right. That'd work a lot better for this.

So, I was looking through the new F/SN jump and found this:

> 400 - I Am The Bone Of My Sword
>-One thing. The very core of your being. Something to base your whole life around. For Shirou Emiya, it was Swords. For you? Perhaps something else. You'll find yourself innately understanding the idea you choose, even letting you understand other concepts a bit easier if you can frame it in the context of what you chose. More importantly, you're an absolute genius when it comes to magic based around this one thing. Shirou Emiya, an otherwise poor quality Magus, was able to use magic that approached the level of True Magic when relating to swords. It took him being in a rather unique situation, where usually it would still take years to achieve, but he did what would have been impossible for most Magi.
>You are on the same level with your chosen idea. When related to that idea, your magic will be many times stronger, many times easier to use and many times easier to learn or create, though the broader the concept is from 'Sword' the lesser the effect will be. Careful to not lose yourself in your own ideal.

Is there anything stopping me from choosing "magic" and becoming so amazing at everything that I may as well be a god?

>>50608078
Nobody is trying to dictate anything. Only state opinions. Is dissent a vicious attack now? Not even dissent really, that word is too harsh for a two sentence query.

>>50608084
I buy items when they are unique or aesthetic, mainly.

And no, I'm not in any disagreement about any fundamental aspect of jumpchain. I didn't see the point in something, so I stated that. A very, very harmless post. Nobody is being attacked. If they perceive it as such, that's just rampant paranoia.

Essentially what is happening is that the shitposter isn't around for you people to complain about, so you're trying to warp the first post you can twist into MAYBE sorta being like something he said once into a facsimile of him so you have something to be angry at.

>>50608116
You projected something I never said onto me and then used it as an attack. I shouldn't have to dissect all the problems with this.

>Latest chapter of the gamer
Did he just pull a phoenix wright on a fucking god?

>>50608145
The fact that the broader the concept, the less it is boosted?

The notes I'm putting in the end of the jump probably will yes, given they deal specifically with that, but if you didn't want to wait, you could always actually read the second last sentence of the perk.

There may in fact, be a reason it's a WIP.

>>50608084
Not him but this is a good topic in general.

Jumpers, do you prefer items or perks? I can think of a few good arguments for either of option but which do you prefer and why?

>>50608113
Not in this argument, but dude. Have you even been here long?

Even without the shitposters driving shit to factionalism, arguments here always seem to gravitate towards an Us vs Them.

>>50608145
Hey Spacebattles.

>>50608152
Dude, he apologized about it and you're still going on all prissy faced and acting like the offended one. Are you sure you're not the problem here?

>>50608145

>-though the broader the concept is from 'Sword' the lesser the effect will be.

>>50608152

You shouldn't and nobody is asking you to.

Do you have anything else to say about it or was that the extent of it?

>>50608145
Did you read the perk?
>the broader the concept is from 'Sword' the lesser the effect will be

>>50608162
Perks, because they let me make or steal items anyway and are much easier to stack.

>>50608161
It's mostly Spacebattles cross-posting.

>>50608145
Why did you take the time to separate the part that would prevent that from the rest of the perk?

>>50608162

Companions
Because you'd be surprised how many jumps give drawbacks that remove your abilities and items but never touch your companions

>>50608162
Perks usually. Unless it's something I can't get any other way I'd rather just get or make it myself

>>50608193
Because anything that causes a net loss in power is ignored in the other forum.

>>50608173
There wasn't an apology and I don't expect one. I'm just miffed at this point and making it very clear what caused this.

>>50608179
No, I don't. If we ever could have had a productive discussion that opportunity has been utterly destroyed.

>>50608145
While the broader it is the lesser the effect I still have to admit I'd be tempted to choose magic just because it'd be thematic for my jumper. Magic is awesome.

>>50608092
Maze Age Z is an isekai in the same verse where a boy is dragged off into a parallel verse, but later finds that there might be a metastable connection given that he's presumably in the body of somebody existing in that world, and his own body is awol. It has a tie in to the Gamer due to timeline, and the Gamer's reveals in the later chapters of the prologue that there are Deities and individuals capable of creating dimensions on the order of universes given sufficient worship. The current battle against the New God Arc Company for example, is within the world that Arc Company created. The "Maze" in question in Maze Age Z appears to be tied conceptually to the Arc Company's Great Labyrinth, so we're waiting for some lore explanation on that.

Wizardly Tower is either a parallel verse, or a very early prequel, set in the time when Gods used to be pretty common, but in the current timeline there's only one God (who happens to be MC). Except in the latest chapters the other gods are starting to come back. The timeframe for this setting seems to be somewhere within Industrial Revolution, but again, as with all of Sung San-young's works, getting him to do any sort of worldbuilding is so tough that you might as well wait for 100 to 200 chapters to figure out why he introduced this universe.

Life Howling is the last of his little interconnected worlds project thing that he's doing, and as far as I know it's currently on hiatus. It introduces the White Room however, which is apparently tied to every single universe so far like a hub world. Until we get some sort of clarification as to what the White Room's true nature is, we don't know where Life Howling is supposed to be placed. The time frame is also modern Seoul, and MC's ability is basically Proto-Gamer.

The Gamer is his most advanced piece of work so far, but even that isn't saying much. He drops hints and shit about how this is all part of some project, and no one has a clue whether he's bluffing or not.

>>50608162
Perks, but i'll get items if they are extremely cool (House of Mysteries) or I need something CP insured for an enchanting/"insert other method of upgrading here" project. Wouldn't want my efforts to go to waste after all.

>>50608220
Well, alright then.
Again, I was wrong to take it as a criticism of the jump itself. But alright

>>50608162

Usually I prefer perks to make stuff, but I need the stuff and the cp insurance is really good since I'm bad at keeping track of my stuff, and sometimes you just can't make the stuff you want (like UG Cells), so...both?

If I really had to choose, perks. But I'd buy digger's weak chaos emeralds because it feels wrong to steal unique items for my own use, and Sonic needs those chaos emeralds to go super sonic...

>>50608220
Jesus, other guy's right. You are a salty fuck.

>>50608222

This has me wondering something. Wouldn't "magic" probably just result in spells to interfere with other spells?

>>50608264
Out of curiosity, about how powerful would someone with a Human Soul, Magnifying Magic, and Fire Magic's Magic be in Undertale?

>>50608252
>>50608275
Yes. Justified salt after having to go through an accusation shame parade, but yes. I can acknowledge when something gets under my skin.

Perks. Generally because even if I don't take drawbacks, I like to prepare for the worst, which is generally something along the lines of getting stripped naked, tortured, and thrown into a ravenous pit of demons with nothing but the chains that bind me.

And by interesting, I mean I am going to troll. the. FUCK. out of the villains.

I'm really not going to be more complex than that in my plans, I'm just going to screw with everyone absolutely relentlessly. And occasionally side with them only to have Mother Brain curse my sudden but inevitable betrayal.

>Apologises
Don't lie. Digger hasn't said 'sorry' once.

>>50608157
Arc Company is a "freshborn" God, so it's technically not as strong as some of the other Gods out there. It's very likely that part of the reason why it didn't bother pushing the point against Jee Han was because in the grand scheme of things, Pres is insignificant, compared to what could happen if the Harem King got involved, and the level of conflict escalated to a point where other Gods had to get drawn in.

So far everything has been leading up to "a God" showing up, and Arc Company fulfilled that criteria. It's probably up to the next 5 - 10 chapters to see how quickly Dan Ui Moon realizes what they're actually up against, and whether they have a countermeasure or not.

This is the kind of shit that makes me wonder if the Gamer should be rushed to completion right now, since it's pretty critical to the worldbuilding of this universe, but there's nothing in the document to suggest that this is even a plausible threat or that it might happen. I'm assuming that Cthulhu keeps up to date with all of Sung San-young's works, so he should at least know what he's working with, but it isn't uncommon to have a Korean manhwa stretch far into the triple digits just to reveal more and more plot points.

Hey, I still have companions. I'm not going to leave them behind.

Well shit it is actually pretty decent, not great mind you and it will have to be updated as the series moves forward but this a decent jump.

>>50608286
Your mistake was in your opening comment, when you described it as wasteful and weak. I'm not a big fan of soft-balling criticism, but if you've been here for any period of time beyond a week, you should have some idea of the vitriol directed towards Jumpmakers, and you probably should've thought more before posting. Alternatively, you could also have avoided people lashing out at you by apologizing and restating your criticism with more respectful wording.

>>50608326
I'm supposed to instantly get over it and what everyone else said just because he said he was mistaken? That's not how emotions work.

>>50608351
Depends on where he reads it, I guess. I read it at webtoon, which is the 'official' place to do so, and clicking on both the author and the artist's name showed this as their singular work.

So while I hope he does, it's entirely possible he doesn't.

It's a bit perk heavy, with almost 8 complere perk trees amongst four origins. The next chapter appears to have a godkilling sword, and the one after that has it's wielder talk to the chubimoon, so that could be a good item.

>>50608162
I'd rather have better items than better perks. More so if we're talking about this as far as jump design goes. In terms of jump choices you're very rarely going to find items flat out beating perks, just because the culture around here is made so that items really don't matter too much. If a jump has good perks, people are willing to overlook the items even if they're bad. If a jump has bad perks, people won't tolerate it, even if the items are good. It's just the way things are.

Personally since I don't give a shit about power or vanity, perks don't do too much for me. Get a couple to pad out the foundation, and it's pretty much smooth sailing the rest of the way.

I'm a punk-ass bitch so I meant a Dr. Pepper.
Oh yeah, that's definitely a big ticket item.
I'm planning on a future-based Capstone known as the "Power of Generations", which'll give future-based boosts. Freedom Fighter'll get a homing attack, Mach 15 speed, and the drop dash along whatever else I think will balance it. It depends on how strong the other abilities end up being, but Underdog will get some tech skills a la the Good Future stuff in CD that works with nature instead of against it, Drop-in will probably be able to at-will enter the Bonus Stage as well as shift and create custom stages within the Bonus Stage, and Conqueror...well, I'll figure out what to do. Maybe something involving seeking out and utilizing other great evils as power sources.

>>50608404
There wouldn't be any more replies if you didn't feel the need to antagonize.

>>50608381
I feel that being restricted from using certain words, especially in what's framed as very light disagreement, is essentially crippling our ability to communicate with each other. It's essentially letting our problem children control our discourse just because they've used similar words to shitpost.

However, I'm never going to apologize for someone innocent because someone else got offended due to a misconception. There's nothing on my end to apologize for in such case.

>>50608312
For things that haven't been mentioned:

Narnia.

Alan Wake has some good light shit, too.

>>50608385
With SB pushing him to finish it by the end of this month or whatever their silly deadline was, he better expect to start updating it regularly, because so far it looks like the Gamer is following a Tower of God style of escalation.

Otherwise they can keep in on SB's drive, and let people here make a better jump when the plot actually stabilizes. Granted, most people probably just want the setting for the Gamer powers, and don't really give a shit about the actual world itself, so maybe there's merit to just shoving the jump onto both drives asap.

>>50608446
Pretty sure you're being baited, m80.

>>50608464
It's always possible. It's also possible he was one of the people accusing me at the beginning. It's hard to know.

>>50608434
Maybe something like an ancient evil appearing in a setting where it didn't exist before? Like, one ancient evil that you have to find and take control of, more work for a better pay off? Or maybe just having ancient evils actually be grateful and loyal for you bringing them back or something?

>>50608489
Isn't that more after Sonic Adventures?

>>50608458
Honestly, from the looks of things, he could call it done NOW and it would be pretty good. But he hasn't released it as such, beyond the doc link for review over there.

...maybe it's supposed to be a Christmas gift to us/sb or something?

>>50608492
Digger said Generations, so I assume it's based on Sonic Generations? With that thing, the...Time Eater, I think it's called, that the Eggmen took control of?

>>50608458
To be fair as a fan of the comic I really just want to get that power; even if I had to load up on drawbacks, ignore better options, and walk away with nothing other than this power I would be fine with that because I simply love the concept of it.

>>50608367
Is the "Veteran of a the psychic wars" perk's title deliberately written with "a the", mashing the song's title and opening line?

>>50608507
This, Xenogears, Cthulhu Saves the World, and Fantastic Beasts I guess?

>>50608510

It's more of a generic "Future-based power", for example Guardians will be able to generate some ambient chaos energy by themselves. Generations is just an easy way to say that

something like "Good Future/Bad Future" might work since Sonic CD but I have no idea how to make that sound as catchy as Generations

>>50608489
that is a STRONG idea. It also fits with how Robotnik/Eggman keeps finding these things without any real foreshadowing on their existence
apparently it's genetic too, if you take Shadow the Hedgehog is canon
of all the scientists to find an outside-context source of power for his ultimate life form, it had to be Eggman's grandpappy.

If he really wanted to run the popularity contest he could probably just make the Gamer powers free for everyone and there'd still be plenty of people arguing for it and against it.

No no, the perk is named Generations-never mind, apparently I was wrong anyway >>50608546. Speaking of:

>>50608546
Eggman's tendency to stumble upon ancient evils is hilarious, and I can't help but wonder if Maria would have gone down the same path of ancient evil finding as her grandfather and cousin. Though given the kind of person she was, she would have probably tried to befriend them instead.

Also, if we're going into Bad Future stuff, if you don't like the Ancient Evil idea you could have a perk that helps with building evil empires/dystopias like the one seen in Sonic CD's bad futures.

I'm not actually sure

They don't stop riots because there's a riot in the story.
And they don't stop crime because "Crime is rife" or some such shit.
Supposedly they monitor your conversations and positioning but like I said, if it was effective crime would be eliminated.

I think it was just a bad idea that resulted in genetically modified cat girls for domestic ownership.

I wouldn't say anyone is pushing it exactly more that they just want The Gamer jump.

>>50608586
It isn't all him? Fantastic Beast, Cthulhu Saves the World are his. The Gamer is his and SJ's joint project. SJ is working on Xenogears. We're just pointing out what projects they've taken on and committed to finishing.

If they work on popular, high end projects, they're going to get attention. The Gamer abilities have a lot of utility, and Xenogears has a lot of very strong mechanics options, so it's only normal that they're higher profile than other jumps.

And there's really no sense to calling them SB writers when all of their jumps except for Nu Bleach are made for tg. It just feels like you're deliberately trying to ostracize them at this point. Both of them have made as many jumps as most jumpmakers here, if not more.

He's been focusing on Gamer because a few of the folks at SB have been urging for him to finish it soon, but then a few days back or something he started asking for input on CStW again, so I really have no clue. It's hard keeping up to date with either of them since we're not on at the same times.

Xenogears from the WIP I have looks like it's gotten a little bit more work, so maybe we'll be lucky and SJ will put that out around the same time too.

>>50608648
So something like Sonic Unleashed, where Eggman woke up Dark Gaia, destroyed the world, and built Eggmanland? Could work, though you'd obviously need an ancient evil to do so. Hmm, maybe a perk that you can toggle before each jump where an ancient evil either does or does not come into existence, and from there you have to work to harness its' power, the stronger it being the more people will be concerned about it and the more difficult it would be to control it?

>>50608655
Because you can learn magic from the library without having to access Sage. So if you don't buy Sage as a companion then you can learn enough space-time magic to make it on your own.

>Cat BoomerThe nanobots initially introduced to control the population of Glitch City had a side effect in about 5% of the population, in that they died. Children identified with Nanobot Rejection Syndrome undergo prenatal gene therapy to eliminate it, if their parents could afford it. Children with these alterations grow up with feline ears which became very much in fashion. You were either cured of Nanobot Rejection Syndrome or had very vain parents. Either way you've got cat ears.

>>50608765
Alright. We don't have any protection from that, do we? And even if we did, your jump basically infects all of us with malicious nanomachines, no save. Nobody can trust these things not to be doing something untoward and nobody wants that privacy invasion regardless. It's like pokemon having a mandatory webcam prosthetic inserted into your penis.

>>50608680
>does not hang out here
Why does this even matter anymore? Many of the jumpmakers who make stuff don't post here regularly or don't trip. You get what, four or five of them who do? There are plenty of jumpmakers who are exactly like cthulhu and only show up to drop off a jump.

If the jump is good, it'll be accepted. I'm not seeing any negative comments about the Gamer jump so far, so what's the real issue here? I see people pointing out things like this about SB folks all the time, but somehow they get jumps made still, and the jumps still go on the drive fine.The end result is still the same.

>>50608589
Changelog made by comparing the file on the drive with this one:
Spelling & grammar fixes.
Notice Me Senpai! expanded a fair bit.
Mmm, Delicious Evil had the Mmm dropped and examples changed. Some expansion on the scenting evil stuff too.
There's lots of examples changed, won't bother mentioning them for the rest.
Spelling error in Bag of Convenience added 'have has'.
Tsundachi changed to allow imports and explain it better.
Peacemaker is more powerful.
Some explanations from questions added like the Divine Charm.
Bonded swords don't fuse any more, they now stick the handles together to become a double bladed sword-staff.
Demon castle has lots more text now.
No drawback changes and a few notes different.

>5% of kids - or at least those whose parents can afford the treatment, because corporate dystopia - now get cat ears

>>50608716
Do you need either the library or to companion Sage if you want to do the sort of summoning/teleporting he did eventually? Could you just ask him over the BBS?

There are loads of perks that make your mind or soul resistant/immune to forced changes, but are there any that do the same with forced physical alterations?

>>50608795
Well, no, you're not going to die from the nano machines. You can assume that the jumper doesn't have rejection. I'm also happy to bend the lore if a bunch of nano herpies that effectively does nothing bothers a lot of people. It's just part of the lore.

If whoever claimed Xenogears doesn't put out a WIP then their claim is void. Plenty of people would rather have a jump than try to spite an author and end up with another would be jump that doesn't get made for months. People have been saying that SJ has improved dramatically, so maybe it's time you checked her newer pieces of work out and considered if your opinion about her needs to be changed.

You could always get protections from out-of-jump.
Although, I do wonder if it says anywhere that the elites get protection from the nanobots (cause they can pay for it, or they're an exec at the company that sent out these nanobots, or something else). Because if they do, it should be available to us.

>>50608846
Maybe Cthulhu is a good influence on her?

>>50608861
>You could always get protections from out-of-jump.
That's the case with literally everything. But don't we design these in a vacuum?

Nit him but for me at least, I'm tired of certain peole pretending those two have absolutely no flaws and pushing for their bullshit to be accepted without any criticism at all.

SJ has an abyssal track record when it comes to taking criticism, and including meta perks. I at least am largely pessimistic towards the quality of her work.

As for Cthulhu, he seemed unwilling to address how powerlevels in CSTW work, despite the fact someone reasonably suggested he just treat them as in-game JRPG feats instead of assuming all characters map onto their Lovecraftian counterparts.

You know, because the original Cthulhu wouldn't save the world and all that.

>>50608846
>People have been saying that SJ has improved dramatically
People say a lot of things. She has barely changed at all, the only difference now is that people are too tired to put up with hours of stubborn "you just don't get it" arguments and just let her do whatever she wants, because it's not worth talking to someone who never listens.

>>50608845
A double-bladed double-hilted sword staff nunchaku made of solid raging icefire. With gold trims and glitter. And a Sailor Moon style transformation sequence.

>>50608853
It's really up to you. Every world has at least somewhat different magic so it could be whatever sort of magic system you want as long as it's within reason and the general confines of the setting. There's literally a world of weeaboo fightan magic so there's not much that's out of context.

>>50608162
Perks.
Sure, purchased Items respawn or whatever, but with the right perks, you can make shit that functions similarly to a great many Items. They don't regenerate (normally), but you can keep making them, and can tweak and enhance them as time goes by.
Items stay stock, usually. Frozen in time, as it were.
Perks are almost alive.

>>50608846
>peole have been saying

Literally who. The last conversation about her was a bitter rant about how some really meta shit got into her latest jump and how all the perks were boring as fuck, because people were sick and tired of having to argue with her at every turn.

Like talking to Manyfist on a bad day, but for every. Jump.

Honestly, just "fusing" was fine. A double-bladed sword-staff isn't as good as an equivalent polearm, sword, or staff.

Is there a reason you changed it? If not, something like pic-related would be goat.

>>50608660
>made as many jumps

Also? This is no compliment. Look at Tera/Bancho's work. Look at Mib's. There's a reason things are reviewed.

If. The operative word here is IF, and as I've expressed, I'm both pessimistic with regards to them and frustrated at least one of them gets away with dumb shit simply by being hard to talk to.

Who knows? With joint projects like these you never know who is doing what. For all we know, SJ's jumps were actually good and it was Abraxes who was a bad influence on her. It's easy enough to slap a name onto a document and say it's a joint project anyways.

>>50608911
>this webcomic I forget the name of

Ugh. I dunno if it's just me or not, but this guy's facial expressions - when they aren't hyper cartoony - seem a bit Uncanny Valley.

>>50608952
Look at her old attempt at the Fountain jump and her "biosphere supplement". If anything Abraxes encourages her attitude and is the reason she refuses to listen anymore.

>>50608955
Isn't that Grrl Power or something?

>>50608955
The link's right on the page dood.

>>50608952
I'm genuinely curious, why do you like her work so much?

>>50608955
... there's no guys in those panels, anon. Might need to clean your glasses.

>>50608924
I don't think you can make the argument that Cthulhu or SJ's works aren't reviewed though. If anything, they're given more review than many of the jumpmakers here, with more responses and criticism in general. Tera/Bancho stopped making jumps a long time ago, and Mib has just restarted. Both of them were active so long ago that the standards used were completely different. Using them as comparisons is kind of flawed. If anything it wasn't even meant to be a compliment. Them making more jumps than most people just reflects the experience they have as jumpmakers.

>>50608991
Think he means the artists expressions, the way he draws them.

>>50608944
Does the "fused" form of Bonded Swords count as a single item for weapon imports?

Also, is it possible to learn other worlds' from that jump's magic systems either by travelling or through the BBS?

>>50608973
I think the Biosphere is pretty good, I use it.
Although I do kinda wish I could get the original pastebin of it before it was attached to the Fountain jump, just so I know how the City worked.

>>50608986
What? Anon I'm saying that in a joint project you can basically slide the blame of everything off to another person, not actually saying her jumps are good. This is especially true if the other person is equally unknown.

>>50608991
The artist's facial expressions.

>>50608974
>>50608982
... So it is.

Look lemme just have my corner of blindness alright

>>50608955
>>50608974
Yeah, it's Grrl Power. Grrlpower? Whatever. It's decent, if horrifically slow-moving and a bit hammy at times.
It's really coming into it's own and the world building took a massive leap when the supernatural was revealed to be a huge thing. It had just been supers and ayy lmaos until then, mostly.
>>50608991
I think he's referring to the artist/writer, Dave Barrack?
And yeah, sometimes the dude goofs.
Sometimes the faces are fine, sometimes you're hoping the characters get away from that obvious killer android before it's too late.

If I were to build myself a new body with my own science and transfer my mind into it, are there any Perks that would let me use my Powers and alt forms in that body?

If not, in my chain I home rule that all my Powers, even the biological ones somehow, are all bound to my soul, so alternatively are there any Perks that would let me transfer my soul into anew artificial body?

>>50609023
Except it's meta as fuck and it's absurdly exaggerated in what it can actually do. SJ-chan even admitted she never watched the movie and just used it as a door to make her own "improved" Warehouse.

>>50608986
I like her work because she's done some obscure shit before. I liked GirlsUnd Panzer at least and I think that was hers. Can't speak for the guy you asked though.

>>50609050
I knew she just did it to make her own warehouse add on (that didn't need to be made because she was linked the already existing add-ons that did everything she wanted except giving infinite space) but she didn't even watch the movie? Is that true?

>>50609022
Yes. The Bonded Swords' fused form counts as a single item for imports.

And yes, you can. Each universe has a slightly different magic system. This is actually how Sage became so ridiculous; he's been studying different magic systems for 200 years.

>>50609004
I don't understand how my ppint hasn't seem to have gotten across, so let me simplify and restate because I find this semantic dance to be almost infuriating as talking to her:

SJ is incapable of accepting criticism that isn't beaten into her over the course of several threads. She also has a procilivity to including perks that are overly meta and be extrmely suptubborn about changing hem.

This causes serious flaws in her work to be overlooked.

That is why I think she is a bad jumpmaker and I don't want her to make jumps for us.

>>50609054
>lel tumblr xD
>lel unoriginal triggered joke

>>50609089
You know what? That's fair enough and I hope someone actually good does more obscure shit I like because I like it too, just not when done by her.

>>50609095
Yeah, it was the 'infinite space' issue.

And yes, she never even bothered to watch the movie.

>>50609111
I'm already not looking forward to the Diablo trainwreck.

>>50609086
I'm kind of scared to ask.

>>50608816
Could you please answer >>50609126? Thanks.

>>50609095
Yep. Red practically blew a gasket at that point and watched the entire movie right there just to point out all the issues with the Biosphere. Even then, SJ-chan refused to change anything until thread got on her case enough.

>>50609120
>infinite space
Did it really?

>>50609046

>>50609120
The beautiful thing about having to post jumps in thread is that there is always, ALWAYS the option of rejecting the posted jmp with a majority vote for whatever reason.

Unlike what certain pedantic shits are trying to give the imipression of, her posting a jump hoere does NOT mean we need to automatically accept it.

>>50609167
Yet every single jump she's put on here has been forced into the drive without exception. Even Circle of Magic, which again she's only read the first book and never bothered with anything else.

>>50609126
Just asking in case I need to make Tsundachi a body since I'm not sure if she counts as a companion or not but I want her to have adventures with me without being confined to a sword.

I...
My brain is stalling. I literally cannot even.

Just... What level do you have to sink to for that to be...

I give up. Whatever sliver of hope I may have had hidden inside me has been crushed.

>>50609176

>>50609144
>Red practically blew a gasket at that point and watched the entire movie right there just to point out all the issues with the Biosphere.

>>50609138
No. You could potentially do it on your own if you've got the time just like Sage himself did.

But Sage can't really teach you over the BBS. Remember; Sage learned how to do by studying different magic systems over a period of 200 years. It's not something that can easily be taught using a forum. You'd be better off going with a combination of studying yourself and asking for advice from Sage. You could potentially reach his level much faster that way. Of course the fastest way is to simply purchase him as a companion and buy the library so you have the research materials on-hand and somebody to teach you.

>>50609213
Well I've got the 200 years, and a lot of Demon Lords to practice against. If I haven't got it towards the end of the jump I guess I'll PM Sage and ask for tips and tricks.

Speaking of, is it okay to spread the 103 demon lords over the course of the 200 years?

>>50609213
So, will the non-immortals of our BBS age out?

>>50609203
You should have seen her. The second SJ-chan admitted it Red was silent for the next hour and a half. Next thing anyone knew she found a streaming site and had watched the whole movie from start to finish. Turns out making a jump when you don't even know the setting just to make up something you want is a hot button.

>>50609167
I'm with >>50609176 on this. For all the criticism she gets, she's had a 100% track record as far as getting her jumps onto the drive goes. Either there's a voiceless majority who likes her stuff enough to veto the people who are criticizing her stuff, or the whole notion of rejecting her jumps is nothing but conjecture.

If the thread unanimously agreed to tell her to stop posting her stuff, sure, but somehow I doubt that's going to happen, whenever she shows up next anyways. By then people will probably have forgotten and we'll just repeat the cycle again.

>>50609203
>when you're so wrong that someone does their research specifically to prove how wrong you are

>>50609213
Couldn't the Sage easily just send us notebooks with proper learning materials/instructions? He gets in trouble for literally just teleporting things that a new hero wanted from to her from her home world, he did this casually and without ever leaving his shack.

>>50609242
Or people get too tired of arguing with her and just shut down and everyone else doesn't care enough to even start. By the time everyones exhausted trying to make her jumps good, she just puts it on anyway and once somethings on the drive it's basically sacred as far as most are concerned, even if it's garbage.

>>50609147
>I don't know why you don't want to just gradually upgrade and and advance over time

The main reason is that I can't figure out how the hell genetic modifications, not to mention cybernetic implants would work between alt forms

Which is why I posted >>50607906
earlier. This is almost definitely the kind of thing I should just homerule something, since there's no official ruling, but still it was just bugging me so i decided pester the thread about it anyway.

>>50609242
>If the thread unanimously agreed to tell her to stop posting her stuff
Oh you're adorable. You honestly think she'll stop if that happens.

here's a tip anon. There have been several times when every single response she has gotten, for over an hour, has been telling her not to do something or to go away.

It takes hours more for her to even CONSIDER changing what she is being 'unanimously' told to fuck off and stop doing.

Missed pretty much the whole last thread, so here's some more EP stuff:

>>50602105
>Swarms
Totally forgot about that. Your idea looks kosher to me, then (I wish that stuff was in the core rulebook -.-).

>>50602262
>How much do you actually get from the various genetic samples on purchase?
For the human database, it's pretty much every variation of the human genome. You could make any kind of human being that has ever lived, from an average joe to a movie star to the world's tallest man or an olympic weightlifter, or even combine all of those into one genetic sequence. You can use it to develop most of the humanoid morphs from scratch, minus their cyberware or some exotic transgenic/novel gene sequences, as well as millions of cosmetic variations.

For the animals, you have samples for tens thousands of species, from whales to bacteria to flies to fish to snakes to marsupials to birds. You could develop most of the uplift morphs from scratch.

To make a Selkie, Salamander or a Venusian Glider from scratch, you'll need a suitable human base (from the human database), plus the right gene sequences from the animal database. Likewise, you won't have a single sequence for a "novacrab" in the animal database, since novacrabs are an artificial morph, but you'd have the gene sequences for spider crabs and coconut crabs, so you could engineer your own version.

Making synthmorphs is covered under the Science Solarchive and the Device Engineering skill package. Synthmorphs are nowhere near as complicated; except for the weird ones (like the Biocore or the nano-heavy ones like Liquid Steel) they're basically ordinary robots.

The thing about a lot of morphs (biomorphs, pods, synthmorphs) is their blueprints or genes often have an "Open Source" version available for free on the mesh, somewhere. So if you just wanted the 'final product' gene sequences of morphs, you can just find and download them in the jump.

>>50609300
At that point, we relay to Brutus to just not upload something

>>50609265
No.

>After this jump is over you retain access to the Exchange BBS. You can still communicate with all of the people who post there but you can no longer interact with them (unless you brought them along as companions) and they have no power to actually assist you. But you're still fully able to shitpost about your travels to them and receive advice on what you should do in given situations. In addition, while you're in other jumps you may grant temporary access to the BBS to anyone in that jump for the length of your stay. They can communicate with you or anyone connected to it.

>>50609242
The most irritating thing about you and him is that you talk about it all like it's inevitable, instead of rscognising there's a problem that should be addressed. When you recognise a pattern with a negative outcome, the appropriate response is not to sit back and let it happen unless you're a lemming.

You're right about one thing-more people need to speak out more. Like I said, I think people are just sick and tired of telling her how not to fuck up that the bar's lowered considerably-but that doesn't mean giving up is going to help.

>>50609213
How much stronger are Demon Lords than humans and how much faster do Heroes grow than Demon Lords?

>>50609325
I meant if we bought him as a companion without buying the library.

>>50609233
Sure. Unless you also took The Ride Never Ends in which case you're magically compelled to hunt down and deal with the various Demon Lords.

>>50609236
In-jump? Yes. If you're an Immortal with Senior Citizen then you're going to be around for generations of Heroes. Out of jump time there is stopped and the BBS works on omnipotent fiat meaning that real-time communication and continuity still happens despite the time stop.

>>50609265
Yes. But it would be nowhere near as comprehensive as the library is. The library is a step-by-step series of lessons to mastering the magic that exists within your world completely with minimal fuss. You could learn it the usual way but it'd take way longer.

>>50609345
>The library is a step-by-step series of lessons to mastering the magic that exists within your world completely with minimal fuss.
Ok that is way better than what is described in the item description.

It’s strange to find yourself on a planet that you know isn’t going to be there much longer. I decided it was worth breaking the plot entirely to save billions of lives.

So I began my war on the empire. The first thing I needed was to take the death star out of play. It was tough to find where it was being constructed. It wasn’t public knowledge it existed and I don’t know star wars very well.

What I do know is how to build fabrication units and Ai’s from Eclipse phase. My companions and I managed to sneak on board. I hooked up the fabrication units to start building robots and programmed it to install copies of the same AIs and Soon I had a robot army fighting the troopers and workers in the partially constructed deathstar. We took it over. Unfortunately it was not long before the empire tried to take it back in force. We wound up fleeing but we detonated a large anti mater bomb that wiped out a good portion of the empires army with it.

Finally I managed to talk to Vader during one of our fights. We fought several times and each time I sensed the potential for good within him. He tried to corrupt me offering me a chance to join him and dispose of the emperor. Unfortunately the emperor was well aware of it so Vader almost died and wound up having to flee and came to me for help. We formally joined the rebels and managed to take down the empire.

There's a version on the subreddit and the SB CYOA gen thread where it's only 1000 CP.

Who here A) knows Dresden Files and B) can tell me a little bit about their Dragons?

I took the half-blood option in King Arthur but didn't want to retread the boring old "Fate/ for Magic Core hurr durr" thing, so am wandering through my options.

>>50609505
It is kind of a toss whether it is worth it or not, sure it is an absolutely wonderful power but the origin capstones are also pretty damned amazing. Especially Drop In. And they cost way less.

>>50609120
Diablo trainwreck?

>>50608007
>random, arbitrary perks with less explanation and more blatent metagaming than Coiling Dragon

Thank fuck this isn't on our drive.

>>50609505
It is overpriced but by less than you might think.

>>50609339
The Demon Lord is basically the final boss. So he's naturally way stronger than any normal monster. At level 5 (or level 6 if you're an Active Hero) the Demon Lord is strong enough that an army of normal soldiers is nothing but wheat against the scythe and he can easily kill even groups of higher level monsters like dragons with no problem.

You, as a Hero (or weirdly paradoxical Demon Hero if you're a Demon Lord that was summoned) possess a much higher growth rate than normal (represented by your class ability to learn skills and grow rapidly in your area of expertise). You could go from level 1 to level 5 in a little under a year. It would take two to five years to go from level 5 to level 6. It would take upwards of 20-50 years to go from level 6 to level 7. And it'd take over 100 years to reach level 8. And it only gets harder from there. Plus breaking into higher levels usually requires going to other universes and learning things there. You'll have already mastered the stuff in your original universe by level 5 or 6.

Honestly, eventually we'll get enough jumps that a Gamer composite ability can be assembled via just a good number of 100/200 CP perks or something. It'll be the same for every other perk in that jump too.

Right... so nobody gave a shit about builds I've posted, so let's see if people give a shit about this WIP instead.

Suggestions are welcome.

>>50609571
500 CP of mandatory drawbacks on top of an excruciating mandatory drawback? Isn't it basically just a lesser version of Soft-cap with eidetic memory?

>>50609559
I think you're reaching. Looks like a good jump that I'm definitely interested in.

>>50609627
>Isn't it basically just a lesser version of Soft-cap with eidetic memory?
A good amount more than that, it is certainly overpriced but when you consider all it gives you it is more reasonable than it looks at first glance.

It sort of feels like you are paying extra for the cool factor of the power in addition to it's functions.

Is that a magical girl fighting Vader?

>I decided it was worth breaking the plot entirely to save billions of lives.
Yay!

>>50609627
It'll probably end up like a Tower of God situation where an item gets buffed over and over again in the actual manhwa, so the item suddenly becomes even more amazing and critical for purchase.

>>50609627
You get the video game HP thing and the ability to direct your growth as well.

>>50609679
No, it is a masochist celestial. Tenshi Hinanawi, who possesses power to the extent of the manipulation of earth. She thinks Heaven is boring and slums around mortal Gensokyo starting Incidents and getting into fights for fun. Watch out for her sword, it can determine your weakness and hit you with it.

>>50609621
You should say that none of the works of "fiction" are the same. Otherwise, that's 800 CP of free shit.

Also, I didn't see any mandatory win/loss conditions. They need to be added.

Are there any good Perks for transferring people's souls into inanimate objects or empty bodies?

>>50609683
Maybe? It seems more likely that any upgrades will come from magic/martial arts stuff that could be learned without the gamer power. It mainly makes it easier to learn and improve skills so you could probably learn the stuff without it. I can see quite a bit more information coming up about the setting in the next few chapters but I don't know that the base gamer power will gain any improvements.

>>50609446
My favorite perk is probably Acting the Fool.

With a Korean series that's liable to go on for as long as the author cares to continue spinning new lines for it, there's literally no reason why he won't give them power ups as things continue to escalate. So far the author has already established a tendency where instead of having Jee Han really focus on develop his branch skills, he just dabbles in each one for a bit, grinds, and then goes on to discover more skills. This Arc Company segment has been mostly really about him discovering his Gamer Party abilities more so than developing anything else.

Drawbacks: Who the hell am I, Man of the Spiral (1600)

Drop-In, age 18

Companion Import (1200): Elodie, Nona, Fair Eyes, Kat, Makoto, Elise, Secret, Sunny
Get yer Head on Straight! (Free)
I'll Repay That, Ten Times Over (1100)

Lagann-type Gunmen (400)
Giant Robot Piloting Skills (0)
Badass Glasses (Free)
Badass Cape (Free)

It was a week when I got chained up in the town square next to that tattooed bluenette asshole. We were arguing over who had the cooler cape and classes. My purple cape with cobalt blue flames and jagged-eyed shades were CLEARLY the superior combination, but for some reason he refused to see reason. And then the short kid asked us to stop fighting because there was an earthquake, and I didn't have the heart to press the issue.

Strange. That face on my cape-I swear I've seen it somewhere.

Damned if I know where, though-

-and that's when the pink haired girl slapped me upside the head and told me off for starting shit.

And then-a giant robot broke in! Blue Guy and Pinky somehow took it down on foot! I didn't even see what happened! By the time those other girls came in to provide cover fire, the kid had hijacked the thing and we bust out of that dump, like a goddamn rainbow in the dark!

Maybe these guys aren't so bad after all.

(Cont'd)

>>50609621
...I almost suspected there would be a Carpenter origin in there somewhere.

Well, um. No complaints about the fluff so far.

About Messiah-any particular reason why it seems to cost more than the others, barring the boost in popularity? Just wondering what distinguishes it from, say, Shepard and Prophet? Is it like the Kane origin or something?

Also I'm kind of confused what a Technopriest is supposed to be. I...can't think of any actual scientists who're associated with cults, off the top of my head-unless it's meant to be the Ron Hubbard origin?

>>50609621
HYPE.

...

...aw, fuck. I overslept.

That was a few years ago. Kamina-although he'll always be Blue Asshole Bro in my head-yelled at me to hurry up. Tough talk from a guy with one arm, but-he's not all bad. Had a bit of talk the night I saved his ass from that damn dirty ape with a lucky shove, turns out he was all talk just like me. It was the k-Simon who was the real badass all along.

I can kinda relate. I didn't snag my first mugann by myself; Elodie sacrificed her own ride to get me there. She's been my rock and anchor for years now; Yoko likes to tease that we should spend more time on double dates and less on field work, but I'm just thinking ahead. All this time, we've been working to take on Teppelin and Lordgenome-it's been a total blast but I won't lie-I gotta appreciate the people who made it all possible. Rossiu handles logistics, Elodie's been our premier strategist and ol' Kittan's a damned good lieutenant. Between them and that crazy squad of crazy girls, I wouldn't pick any other people to take on the world with.

So. Why do I feel like this is all wrong?

Not bad. But that-it all can't last. That I'm in the wrong place, doing the wrong thing.

I've always felt there's something out there, beyond the skies we know. Something I'm missing.

Fuck it. I've always beaten myself up over not knowing how the hell I ended up in Jeeha village, and it's never helped. What matters now, is moving forward. Elodie's right-this is the big one, I've gotta keep my head in the game. And if this is all really a fever dream, then I sure as hell don't wanna wake up.

...

If only because that nerdy little pinkette grew up with curves I could full in love with, if she wasn't also the first woman I met who could best me in-ow, OW alright honey, stop throwing piilows at me I AM GETTING IN THE GODDAMN ROBOT

>>50609621
Looks cool. Probably going to be an easy time for me, I've got a bunch of perks that would help with this goal, but that's not a mark against it. Time to spread my weird techno-syncretic animist doctrine.

Is this a joke? I seriously can't tell around these parts anymore.

>>50609668
You mean other than the inexplicable "you can make any magic into a talisman" perk, the effectively infinite free 1-ups that is Life Insurance and the lack of explanation for what Godblood does?

Again, is this a joke?

>>50610095
>"you can make any magic into a talisman" perk

We already have stuff like that, m80

>the effectively infinite free 1-ups that is Life Insurance

Like the one in Asura's Wrath?

Also, it's explicitly /not/ an infinite one-up perk. Not even close. It has the distinct disadvantage that you would have had to been able to survive in the first place.
