Definitely an angel. It doesn't really say how strong the angels are though, are we talking a human with wings and the immunities you listed, or the cosmic powerhouses that the Bible describes them as? Also, what counts as causing suffering and harm? Can I smite evil, or must I be a pacifist?

Either way, immortality gives me an eternity to improve my skills and find a foxy Kitsune wife. Then die because I accidentally found a Kumiho instead and couldn't tell the difference.

The main downside of becoming an Angel is the bulkiness of the wings.
If they can be the kind that are made of light, instead of the chunks of bird stapled to my back, that would be awesome.

For the 3 boons, Enhanced Intelligence and a Companion are a guaranteed pick.

The last is a wildcard, I could see Illusion Magic, Empathy, or the Fantasy Portal (heavily dependent on the world obviously) being useful...

What do you guys think?

Depends on the setting. Generally speaking, it will be from:

1) Humans are the jack of all trades

2) Humans have better technology (steel weapons, plate armor, crossbows, etc.)

3) Humans have ambition, which allows them to grow prosperous and strong when other races would be content with what they have

4) Humans breed faster, and have larger populations

5) Humans are more adaptable and willing to compromise. Orcs, Elves, and Dwarves tend to be a very stubborn lot.

Have you ever tried to organise an army of elves? It's like herding cats. If you're *really good* you'll be able to get a hundred warriors in the same place at the same time fighting on the same side.
A human general by contrast can just roll up a few thousand conscripts and give them spears. 1-on-1 they might get slaughtered but in a real battle, I'm backing the humans.

Don't forget that while the Elves immortality makes them far more skilled and knowledgable, their immortality makes them cowards. Humans in the middle ages live for 50 years if they're lucky and then die anyway, why not go out dying in battle for your family and king? But Elves? They live on and on, and so to get them to actually fight is a rare occurrence.

Take the Lord of the Rings Elves for example. What did they do when Sauron threatened the destruction of mankind and the domination of Middle Earth? They sent a small garrison to Helm's Deep while the rest of them turned tail and ran.

Best offense is a good defense, so taking high offensive powers but also ones like Telepathy and Charisma to avoid a fight and if not possible be aware of it before it begins. Going for layer after layer of loyalty means the Treachery will most likely have to be directly against me. Fighting to save the world from Cataclysm, along with the Fanatic Cultists, Cardinal, and Evil Priestess I'll become the hero to they eyes of many, which'll further strengthen me.

FInally, it's done. Special thanks to the few people who cared and the dragonposter's nonstop REEing motivating me somehow, though this CYOA may not be exactly what you wanted. Also, finding images for this was so stupid, it feels like the more mundane and commonplace something is, the harder it is to get a good image of it.

Whenever I was able to choose a human, I did that, largely because I'm quite a fan of humanity. But there is a benefit, choosing humans enables me to put a pro-humanity spin on my conquest, making me look better in the eyes of the human peoples.

I made sure that I was very personally powerful, to lead in battle and inspire the troops, as well as to avoid getting assassinated by a band of plucky adventurers.

However, most of my powers are targeted towards subversion and sabotage.

The Pirate Captain and Kraken will ensure that the navies and trade routes will be annihilated for me, thus cutting off supplies for my enemies. Men like the King's Councilor and Cardinall will subvert my enemies from within, thus ensuring a divided enemy when I finally arrive to conquer.

Finally, I chose an opposing Dark Lord as one of my adversaries so that I might make a temporary truce, thus keeping 2/3 of my enemies busy with a second threat for them to deal with.

I'm going to be honest here. The premise is literally one of the few concepts that "trigger" me: getting shafted out of your power for an arbitrary, unfair reason. In this case I was supposed to be a real dragon but became a filthy NEET for some reason. That angers me beyond measure.

I can still tell you put a lot of work into this and it seems like a good cyoa, but the premise completely ruins it for me. Sorry, dude. I'm sure plenty of other anons will like it.

Elves and Dwarves aren't that much better statwise than humans in that cyoa, other than increased lifespan, which only matters if they have children as often as humans.
Orcs spend majority of their time fighting other orcs and it is very rare that any single orc can manage to control group larger than a tribe.
Lizardmen might be swole but they are screwed in any cold regions and a lot of places have at least cold winter. If they expand beyond areas where it's always really warm, they risk a freakishly cold year giving their enemies easy path to victory.
Liches are not a race, Elementals are not a race, who knows about Kitsunes. Angels and Demons play their usual grab-ass about souls.

Humanity survives because they are numerous but still united enough.

I don't really care about being a dragon (or at least not enough to warrant any of the really annoying enemies) so I might as well just take a load of money, an insane snakegirl and enough strength to stop her from squeezing me too tightly.

Other than that I think I won the CYOA.

Censored porn is among the things you shouldn't be posting on blue boards. This _can_ get overlooked if it's just one or few images in a CYOA (or if the censoring is done so that the end result doesn't look censored), though.
>>
>>52888941

That depends entirely on the mods/janitors/faggots that want to report who stumble onto the thread.

I've seen people who hid things behind black bars get banned, while on the other hand I've seen people post completely uncensored nudity that apparently never even got a warning based on all the identical reposts I've seen.

Basically, do what you like, and you can post uncensored versions on /d/. Which you should.

Today on my way to pick up my little sis from school I saw this really amazing guy. He was maybe 6'4", handsome face, full head of hair, looked amazing basically. He was walking with this beautiful girl, like seriously fucking hot but not trashy. It made me think. Has that guy known any adversity in his life? What did he do to deserve a life like that? Does he in fact deserve a life like that? I basically concluded that if a cyoa were to ever give me serious powers, I'd wreck his life. His life and all the lucky people like him. That's it though. "Lucky". Odds are that if anyone received powers in any situation it'd be guys like him. Guys like him end up becoming Superman or heroes or whatever. Shit. But if, just if, I got lucky, I'd fuck up all people like him. Fuck fate. Fuck that roll of the dice.

Why am I such a terrible person? I don't deserve cyoas.

I'm not her/him but I've made like 6 cyoas. If I were less of a loser I'd finish the dozen I started on too. I'm just fucking tired with this whole thing. I always add male and female romance options because it just makes sense. Yet most authors don't. Either waifus or husbandos. So now I feel like balancing stuff out by abandoning the waifus. I won't though. I like some of the girls I've half designed in my quarter finished cyoas.

To compromise I'll just turn one of the girls into a huge cuckqueen. She's a brothel owner anyway so it makes sense.

> arbitrarily punishing cyoa players because you're sick of seeing overused content

I mean that's a choice I guess. Isn't a better one to just do what you want and be satisfied with it? Make a thing centered around dudes if you like. I guess I just don't get why people are mad about waifus like this, even as a joke. Usually people just think of it as degeneracy (or sexism in the sjw tripefests), not overused. Truth is, I like cute girls. I want to read about cute girls. I want to make more things about cute girls. If someone has the same feelings about anything, I've gotten to the point where I have to disregard their subject and instead look toward their passion. You know something; I'd even like to see dudes in cyoas cool enough that can actually make me want to pick them over several waifu options. But that has to be earned through appeal, I think.

>>
>>52889726
It's extremely easy to add a single male option to your cyoa but a lot of authors don't. Yet people scream if a cyoa hasn't got enough waifus. It's a matter of entitlement. The waifu crowd contains some of the most entitled, rotten players of cyoag. They'll burn a thread to ashes if you even include the wrong kind of waifu. Yet they'll complain endlessly if someone asks for male options. They're trash. Like that time someone asked why female characters couldn't rule in a medieval fantasy cyoa and we got dozens of posts insisting that women can only be subservient waifus because clearly everything remotely medieval has to folllow west european christian values. On a normal, adult forum such a question might have lead to an interesting discussion about female characters in a magical medieval fantasy setting and how different such a society could be or couldn't be to ours. Not here.

Locusts. That's what they are. Ungrateful bastards who demand waifus, spend 5 min. jerking off to what took you hours to make, then throw your work into oblivion, never to be posted again.

Screw the waifu crowd. What we need are adventures. A few companions, actual fleshed out characters of either gender, tops.

I'm just ranting though.

Then again the CYOA opens with you being a pathetic shit of a dragon anyway. So I doubt even maxed out you could meet a dragon standard I guess.

Lose you on anything? It was an event that took place right here on cyoag. Barely a year ago. Newfags I swear. An entire thread reduced to autism because one anon suggested that in a setting with magic women might be equal to men, socially.

So, if I had a moral system that said kill and rape, my holy book preaches it and whatever, and I drink fresh blood of virgins with a side of unborn fetuses for breakfast, that's all fine with you as long as I have a grounded set of morality, even if it doesn't necessarily align with yours?

I mean he might have, you have no way of knowing either way. Believing strangers have great lives based on nothing but a glance is illogical thinking that will only make you feel worse. Life sucks for everyone, the only way to live without adversity is to die an early death. Even people with lives you see as much better than yours and problems much more stupid and insignificant than yours will manage to make themselves fucking miserable. True inner contentment is a very rare thing regardless of appearance, money, status or partnership.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_attractiveness_stereotype

Attractive people are treated better in every aspect of life. They received everything on a silver platter. Even an attractive doctor or lawyer received countless benefits growing up that helped him succeed academically. Could he have still done so without his looks? Who knows.

I have 0 respect for attractive people. They're living life on easy mode. If a cyoa let me, I'd ruin their pretty little faces and make them see how cruel life can be.

I feel like The Wizard would be pretty easy to befriend, given that he's not really trying to kill me, and we do share similar interests. Shit, if he wants to use the leylines, I ain't gonna stop him, he can even live in my mansion if he wants.
Yania is.... probably a yandere but whatever man, I don't care, she's also a lamia. Maybe I could help her learn about showing restraint.
Both of them and me put together (assuming I can befriend the Wizard) should be more than enough to kill Lancelot, and after that my only real problem is Lethargy, but that's not really a problem. I'll either just use the Fitness Course to offset it, or enjoy another 3 hours in bed with my snake gf.

That was pretty fun, although I have to admit: I haven't been following any updates about this cyoa, so when I heard people talking about it before now, I thought it was a make-your-own-waifu type of CYOA where you took in a NEET dragon girl like in the dragon maid anime[/spoilers]

Literally the halo effect. You perceive attractive people as having better personalities because they are attractive.

There's some spiralling involved too.

Ugly people on the other hand tend to grow bitter for the exact opposite reason.

Unless you're absolutely hideous, taking care of yourself and dressing decently is enough to get you most things as long as you have basic social skills.

Well, they wouldn't treat you the same, you've said it's a fact that more attractive people have an easier time of life in general, and I agree.
But all of humanity isn't scum just for that (If nothing else, just look at all the horrific shit happening on a large scale). Sadly looks are important, but that's just evolutionary selection, it's still definitely possible to have a good life just by focussing on being charismatic and smart. We just don't have life on easy mode, and it's something we have to deal with.
>>52890639
I think it's more the other way around, beautiful people tend to receive better treatment, leading to a better worldview, leading to a more positive and productive personality overall. Not that a person's personality doesn't have any effect on their outer appearance.

>>52890694
>Literally the halo effect. You perceive attractive people as having better personalities because they are attractive.
No, It's not a matter of perception, in my experience they are objectively better
>There's some spiralling involved too. A good-looking person will be treated better which means he'll probably develop into a more likeable, kind person too because he's been surrounded in positive reinforcement from birth. Ugly people on the other hand tend to grow bitter for the exact opposite reason.
That could be part of the reason, part of it could have been traumas or episodes from their childhood or even the upbringing and social context.

I still remember my 300lbs mom telling me on a daily basis that all that matters is how your face looks. She had a beautiful face, even obese, so she married my dad who was pretty well-off and didn't lift a finger all her life. Face is all that matters. If you've got a beautiful face you can get whatever you want she'd tell me.

You claimed that "70% of all children victim of domestic abuse or abandonment had at least one facial flaw" and pretended this was a good argument without any context. Like, perhaps, say, how did they define facial flaw and what amount of population possesses one and how they measured it.

Hm, to an extent that's true, but don't forget that personality matters a LOT for interpersonal relationships, even casual ones. I'd say that a good personality is more important than good looks for anyone worth being around.

Also, for people looking for proper sources for the halo effect, I found this with a brief search: http://journal-bmp.de/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/JBMP-1-2010-Halo-Bak.pdf
But for anything more detailed, I'd say people should probably look themselves. It's still fairly interesting, and it seems like women are less shallow than men on a subconsious level, which disagrees with my experience, but I'm not sure whether it only showed women pics of men and men pics of women, because the amount of shit they say about members of their own sex is unbelieveable.

Also, I found http://web.mit.edu/curhan/www/docs/Articles/biases/35_J_Personality_Social_Psychology_250_(Nisbett).pdf which kinda supports my theory that personality > looks

Hm, honestly, I think that fits with both theories talked about in my links, but that men tend to value communication less than women. I could look into the societal pressures on each sex in their developmental stages in regards to communication clarity and honesty. It could be pretty interesting, since from what I've seen thus far, women place far more weight on how a person communicates consciously, but there is an odd competetiveness which leads to far less of a respect for truth in words when compared to men.
To put it more clearly, I believe women place more weight in what is said, yet men tend to be more interested in what is meant.
That is why I think tests for the halo effect might be rather skewed, since often I've found that women (being in a generally more active social environment compared to men) tend to think about the impact of what they say just as much, or even moreso than what they actually want to say.
TL;DR I think women are socially smarter, but men are more honest.
I think there was a biological study of the brain that actually backed that up now I think about it, I'm gonna have a look for it but no promises on being able to find it.

Firstly, THE WALL is a no issue, since I'm an experienced dark souls player and know how to indict him once he kills me. Also there's a great chance he'll show up to bar the entry of other enemies of mine.
Once Wytch comes along, she's mine - I'll just fucking die and she'll stop bothering me. I respawn, anyway.
Sir Lancelot is a bro and I wouldn't want to kill him, but all it takes is wrestling him with the help of Yania and breaking all his bones while he's in armor. Then get his nice equipment.

Listen, man.

To the best of my knowledge, you're right: physically attractive people do have a lot of advantages. Physical attractiveness isn't the best predictor of (material) success in life, though; that's "how rich were your parents." Yes, more so than IQ.

Do I occasionally feel like ruining the absurdly fortunate? Sure. But I recognize that feeling for the fetid lizard-brain sentiment it is. The problem isn't "some people are really lucky," it's "life is tragically unfair and many people are miserable. So if some power handed me the controls to this here universe, I'd shift it into 'NOBLEBRIGHT' and slam the accelerator to the floor. I'd go on a wild joyride of reckless altruism. You and the rest of the angsty asshat brigade could wring your hands all you like—"It'll all end in tears, I just know it!"— and I won't hear you, because I'll be too busy curing cancer and ending poverty. You'll just have to learn to love the kittens and rainbows, motherfucker.

If there's either gender specific magic or a lot of magic I don't see why not.

I'm going to whine a bit more about that cyoa.
It seems to have several choices that are flavourful and in their own way quite powerful but that nobody will pick, ever. Like Outsider. Everything goes to shit around you, have fun, great power. It says that you will always end up on top of it, so I guess if the country you are hiding in falls into anarchy and roving death gangs, you will always end up in the biggest one. Which will then go to shit. The eventual end game will be you sitting on a literal mountain of corpses. You can sense where every other Chaos person is, none of whom want anything to do with you because everything around you goes to shit. So even if you don't want to, you will end up spending the rest of your days alone in some ruins. Have fun. The bonus you gain is Immortal(B), which is convoluted way of saying 'invincible. So you will still die of old age. Like, unless you absolutely must ruin some country while still being too lazy to actually put any effort into it, why would you pick Outsider.

Culture Queen/King, why is one of the choices 'good guitar player'? I have a feeling that this exists only because the author thought of Dominator first and felt that Order had to have a counterpart.

Not sure why Juggernaut is a thing when Warrior exists and I don't know what Demonbane that refers to so I don't know the forging ability is good or not.

Janitor, you can vanish stuff, that's nice, I suppose. You can also steal someone's identity. And that's it. You could also be Shapeshifter and not be limited to stealing one identity at the time while also being able to copy powers of other Gifted.

Keeper of Secrets could probably be expanded into it's whole own cyoa.

Whatever you want it to be.
Too many people think "whatever you want it to be" means whatever selfish philosophy justifies acting on your most basic urges. But it really means whatever fits your moral instincts and upbringing. Morality isn't some outside force constricting you that you're no longer bound by if you acknowledge its immateriality, it's part of your personal emotional make-up and the sooner you understand its origins and developments the sooner you can properly cultivate it.

Actually, WHY ARE Netherlord and Beelzebub in here? They explicitly can't do shit with the rest of the cast unless Warper comes to annoy them.

Suicide Man, again with weird powers. At least this is the easiest and simplest way to complete immortality, if you really want that.

Summoner can summon demons, the bottom text says that Demonologist can force the demons he summon to extend his lifespan. Can Summoner do the same? Who knows, why is Summoning dragons Chaos but binding demons into your service Order?

Technomancer can't modify his brain at all, so no immortality for you. But somehow becomes a machine spirit upon death anyway???

Awakened One is Warrior with one less STR but ability to expand lifespan by drinking blood of- sorry that's the Vampire. Awakened one is Warrior with one less STR but ability to expand lifespan by sacrificing mortals, very different.

There's actually even later version but I couldn't find it with brief search and it changes a lot of this, like completely crippling Skeleton King for some reason and removing Warrior so that Slayer has no opposition.

Anyway, have a sequel. Someone tell me how much is 100k netherbucks?

I don't really disagree with him. Give the average person some movie star looks and their life would substantially improve.

I'm pretty sure I'd still be here, anon. I'm too comfortable here to leave just like that.

>>52892713
Yes, the same way life would improve if anything beneficial happened to you. But just becoming attractive will not suddenly solve all your myriad problems. Especially if you're of the mindset that it will, since you're likely a shallow person who doesn't understand how human beings work except through imageboard discussions.

I think it has some merit. It depends on the individual, but if being pretty fills in the void of no self-esteem & gives them confidence, it could have sweeping changes in someone's life.
>>
>>52892800
There are plenty of attractive people out there with no self esteem. Some are attractive specifically because they're motivated by wanting self esteem.

Likewise there are lots of ugly, stupid, hateful people who think they're hot shit and are confused why nobody wants to be around them.
>>
>>52892749
Not him but if you suddenly gave me movie star looks I'd do the following.

Try to get into modelling
Become a shirtless let's player or something if the modelling doesn't pan out
Have some meaningless ONSs with other beautiful, shallow people

Mostly I'd just continue my life except I'm now hyper gl'ing so things will be a bit easier. I'd just bask in the free validation I'd get from people.
>>
>>52892823
I said it depends on the individual. I was saying it CAN completely turn someone's life around. Not that is ALWAYS does.

Yeah, it really depends on the person. If anon wants to succeed academically it'll only have slight benefits, but if he wants to fuck shallow whores, become a male prostitute, or wants to become a famous actor. Yeah. Looks will do it.
>>
>>52892928

You obviously have no idea how much politics is involved with doing this. Being pretty makes every single social interaction you do easier, which means anything that has politics as part of advancement - basically every job you can get - will be easier.

>>52892167
Not angry at all mate. I'm actually pleasantly surprised you responded in an amiable discussive manner insteas of throwing ad hominem insults like the others. A differing of opinions does not necessarily have to be a blood feud that ends in the other's surrender or death.

>What is good if everything is relative?
Burden of proof lies on you for proving there exists an indisputable objective good, anon. I don't need to disprove it~ The ball's in your court, not mine.

>If you saw someone scream for help your animal instinct would tell you to stay away but your conscience would tell you to go and help them. We can either listen to our conscience or choose to drown it out.

...what. My animal instinct..? I think you're talking about survival instinct. Well, yes, if one is scared of dying by trying to help a stranger by taking on a possibly armed assailant, entering an unknown situation where you don't even know whose in the right or wrong... it doesn't seem reasonable, really. Calling the police on the other hand, whose job is exactly that and to investigate it, seems like a more helpful option with less risk to your life, doesn't it?

Oh, and what conscience? Humans are naturally empathetic precisely because we were a tribal species you know. On an evolutionary standpoint we were quite weak in comparison to other predators, so we got together and formed groups that helped and cared about each other, precisely for survival and mutual self preservation. Or, as one might call it, "animal instinct". Not because some book told us "Be good, kids!", and certainly not some voice in our heads that whispers to us the correct moral course of action to take at any given time.

>You seem angry. You rage against God but your heart will not rest until it rests in God.

Nah not really angry at all man. I just respond to insults with insults, but otherwise I'm rather nonconfrontational. Oh and my heart's rather calm anon, thanks for the concern though.

Demonbane is a giant robot with the power to beat up cosmic horrors in a fist fight. Basically, Juggernauts ability isn't being a badass fighter, but making any magic item you can think of. That's why it's tied with Summoner (make living creatures instead of items) as the best - they have no real restrictions and infinite growth potential. Of course, Slayer is better, but everyone else has reason to kill him - he explicitly benefits from killing them, so you can never really trust him - and that knocks him down a bit. Maybe if he can kill the Elder Mage in 29 years, but even then I wouldn't ever trust him unless I was the Juggernaut or the Summoner (either of which can eventually become acausal and leave the universe entirely, which puts a hard, if distant, limit on his ability to come after them).

I definitely wouldn't go full-on Lisa Frank dolphins-and-unicorns, and I wouldn't go in for any "HAPPINESS IS MANDATORY, CITIZEN" bullshit either. That's not what I meant. But it'd be stupid to look at a drug cartel and think, "Well, sure, they kill a lot of people, but they're pretty badass about it, so I'll leave them alone." It depends on the kind of darkness you're talking about.

I'd focus on the things that immiserate huge numbers of people and the things that are just plain cosmically unfair. That's ending absolute poverty on the one hand and making it possible for girls to choose the size of their breasts (sans implants) on the other. That probably sounds really petty, and possibly rather self-interested, but I'm betting it sucks to be flat as a board and watch guys fawn over some DD bitch. It's just an example.

>>52892608
I'm fond of that CYOA because I think it has well-realized characters. Mindful of the arguing over waifus earlier in the thread, I wanted to post an example of a good waifu CYOA, so I opted for this one. Searching for a succinct description, I hit on "high dynamic range" as an analogy to high dynamic range photography, wherein different exposures of the same scene are combined to increase the range of the... Wikipedia calls it the "luminosity".. of the photograph. The phrase was chosen to indicate the unusual depth of the characterization in the CYOA.

>>52892399
>>52892531
I feel like the most sensible choice is Tanith, but she desperately wants kids and I'm not ready to be a parent. I'd actually pick Fisher, because I like cuddling, tall girls, muscular girls, big tits, sexually aggressive girls, and altruistic people. I also think her shark tail is cute, and we have similar feelings regarding litterbugs.

Does anyone mind if I repost Beri's stuff? I didn't get a chance to post a build for it earlier.

All I want is a magical training journal that updates each time I go to the gym so I'm always making 100% of my possible gains. That would make me happy.

Weapon Type: Hammer
Material: Crystal
Enchantments: Giga, Purify (shame I can't get Mending, that would be perfect)

TASTE THE MIGHT OF THE WHIFFLE-HAMMER OF VALHALLA!

Weapon Type: Fist
Material: Mechanical
Enchantments: Giga, Flow

I like the concept of a blindfolded martial artist with giant mechanical hands.

Weapon Type: Knives
Material: Beam
Enchantments: Azure, Truefire

Ricocheting hard-light knives that leave trails of fire everywhere and spatter a sort of liquid fire whenever they bounce off of anything. I think it would look neat.

Weapon Type: Ball and Chain
Material: Beam
Enchantments: Crimson, Flow

As close as I can get to a cat toy. Chase the red dot, human! Chase it!

Weirdest combination I can think of:

Weapon Type: Rifle
Material: Cloth
Enchantments: Soul Sweep, Terraform

Shots from this gun call up ghostly skeletons and transform the world around me into fabric?

Sadly, I can't take Purify and Douse with a rifle, so I can't make a squirtgun.

So much potential here. The author put in a lot of effort on just the waifus.
Can you imagine how awesome it would have been once complete?

Anyway, sort of an information/intelligence/intrigue team.
Rule from the shadows, hold on to secrets, call in favors.

>everyone still says it was too hard and didn't like it

Honestly, I'm not even that surprised, but it's a little dissapointing. On to the next project, I guess.

Cuck NEETs will be mad at anything. You tried to be nice to them but that's impossible. They feed on hating you.

I've never seen an adventuring party that managed to go unnoticed past the third session. I'll use the Princess as bait. If I'm feeling particularly sneaky, I'll take her form and allow myself to be 'rescued'. Either way, I know enough to recognize the ragtag bunch of misfits as Priority Number One.

After that its mostly remembering not to hold to the stupid ball, no plans that are too complicated, no monologues, etc.

Your cyoa starts by insulting the reader and reducing him to a failed dragon. Your very premise paints the whole experience in a negative light.

>>52896466
I liked most of it, though I just finished reading it. My only problem was the lack of any realiable way of dealing with certain enemies, i.e. purple-borders.

Having to deal with a Wizard for all eternity sucks.

Because they're not worse versions, they are superior.

>>52896466
I'd rather you buff the enemies than make them unbeatable. "Lel you can never win permanently" is the lowest level of nemesis design.

>>52891942
This one seems to contradict itself a lot
You get one element, but the ability gifter says you can only gift one element you have, which doesn't make sense. Another power talks about secondary elements.

>>52896466
I liked it, and it's not hard, good balance between powers and enemies.
