Art is a means to an end in cyoas, not an end in itself. Even if it's abjectly horrible as long as it's serving it's visual cues properly it can be terrible. When it isn't serving its cues properly you see valid criticism, like with Icarus. Happening to have a few good artists is really just a bonus.

>>
>>25904126
There's two different things that you can do with cyoa battles. Either have it be descriptive (including rolls is optional), which is more enjoyable to read, or have it be creatively gamey (Hijack) so that you can get a few players that love to play it. The middle ground, boringly gamey (Shooting Stars, aka, press a to continue) is the worst option.

He's not good at full transformations yet but he's exceptional at changing parts.

Aw fuck, this pic wasn't supposed to be here.

He talked about he didn't mean to imply that Fruit could barely transform, just that he can't do as much as a full-bodied changeling. If we do some stuff and practice, we can get Fruit up to high-skill transformation.
>>
>>25904576

I thought /cyoag/ hated special snowflake MC's. Why does Cucky get a free pass?

>>
>>25904832
The stff we've been seeing are because of our stave. Without it he'd probably only get to do minor stuff, like the hands we make every now and then.
Plus, fruity was made because some people wanted a changeling, and some wanted an earth pony. A lot of stuff that wouldn't fly today was normal back in the earlier days of cyoa
>>
>>25904873
Pot
>>
Speaking of battle systems, I think my old one needs some serious revamping. What would /cyoag/ like to see in a new battle system? Something fast-paced and frantic, or maybe something more methodical like a turn-based system? Should there be RNG (dice, rolls, gets, etc.) or should the QM control everything? What about the numbers themselves: Should they be hidden or in plain view?
Sorry if I'm asking a lot, but I've noticed a lot of CYOA's kind of empty out during fight scenes. I'd like to try and remedy that since player participation is going to be a big part of my next CYOA.

>>
>>25904807
I wouldn't be surprised if we got a free pass because of recent events.

>>
>>25905004
The stave is a tool, albeit a living one. Fruity is very good with that tool, or has some natural connection or someshit.

Just because someone is good with sword and bad without doesn't make them useless, right?
>>
>>25905004
No, the stave works with mass and gravity I think. Since fruit is part changeling, he can use the extra mass to make things, where if someone like Halley were using it, it'd probably just make her heavier or stronger. We were able to lift up that big sword because of it. Although a much stronger Halley terrifies me
>>
>>25904999
Check em, and how about next time you not autoforce us into a situation where we think the best option is to get into a fight with something that can pretty much auto-kill us?

>>
>>25905093
Christ, with you it could mean literally anything...
>>
>>25905041
>Fruity is very good with that tool
Let's not get carried away here.
>>
>>25905093
The harpy, personally. The egg itself seemed like it was a bad idea on the player's part.
Just ask Hijacker, he'll orgasm.
>>
>>25905093
Personally I thought it was harsh to splatter Holiday. Could've just said no to the players.
>>
>>25905041
If I gave you a gun you'd be moderately useful as long as you don't kill yourself or friendlies. You'd be just as useful as any other random person I hand a gun to. It'd be better if I gave it to a sharpshooter or ex-military.

Fruity stands out from his party in that he has no appreciable skills.
>>
>>25905093

>>25905213
Pretty much this. With you, there's not really a moderate punishment. It goes zero to a hundred in a second. For the harpy, it was kind of
>"Don't want to play by my rules? Fuck you!"

First off, the consensus was 'take the items and make a sled out of the sticks'
>Soon as you touch the nest, the harpy shows up
Fine, fight it
>You're losing
Fuck the rules, beat it over the head with the combat system
>Fuck you, you're dead
Fine, fuck you too

It leads to an uneasy relationship between the players and the QM, and I think that's the problem with most of your CYOAs. Players get frustrated because the world is inflexible, which in turn makes the QM frustrated because the players aren't getting it, and everyone stops having fun.
>>
>>25902150
A players' decision is a players' decision. It would cheapen the whole story if I was to simply retcon or resurrect her. I'm glad you liked her as a character, considering I didn't even get to reveal an important part about her backstory and Cutie Mark. I'm willing to give it a try with another character when I prepare all the changes, if people are interested. Strawpool and et cetera.

>>25905442
They didn't do it to kill the quest.
>>
>>25905142
>>25905213

The QM outright saying 'no' to the players is preferable to a penalty-free death with a cheesy one-liner tacked to the Game Over screen? Man, times really have changed since 2013-2014...

That probably sounded snarkier than I intended for it to. I didn't mean it that way; I just really am surprised at how much 'nicer' this place has become.

Anyway, I won't make up excuses about the harpy. I just fell back to what I know because that's how I used to keep players on rails. I've tried not to do that with FiT at all: You guys have really taken the character and the game itself in a much different direction than I ever thought/intended, and I'm glad to roll with it. But I had to nip giving Holiday Special godmode fourth-wall-breaking powers in the bud. That was my foremost thought with the death scene which I remind you isn't permanent, just in case anyone thought it was. So I guess in a way it was 'Fuck you, play by my rules,' but not because your only options were to Pokemon battle the harpy. Not at all. It was just to keep the players from thinking "Oh, she can break the game? Awesome, let's solve all our problems that way.". That was all that I was trying to prevent. I'm really nervous about ever outright saying "No." to players, or giving any kind of in-game hints. I just try to have the game world itself subtly show what is and isn't a good idea, via things like the MC's thoughts, reactions (or lack thereof) from NPC's.

I won't even lie, his constant need to ruse people tends to ruin my enjoyment of his quests. It happened with Lamentations too, he tries so hard to be le epic ruse master that it just gets tedious
Which is a shame cause he's actually a really good writer
>>
>>25905313
So much this.

That Harpy and killing holiday in a quest where it made no sense is the straw that breaks the back, ain't following her shit anymore. She can't be trusted to run something properly.
>>
>>25905371
wazzat
>>
>>25905452
It's also that the Harpy and the ensuing brutal death are very much out of place in FiT. Especially since you said you wanted to get away from that sort of thing.

A problem doesn't have to be a giant monster. For Holly, normal social interactions are akin to obstacles, and fit much better with the tone.

Reading through the backlog of the quest on Pineapple before it got cleaned was annoying. He really needs to shut up when he's running his quest.

The CYOA archive. It displays the last QM post date and whether it's live.

Correct.

His skill is his uncanny ability to convince cute mares to follow his dumb ass.

Honestly if you hadn't ended the thread with the game over screen I think it might not have been taken quite as poorly.
As is it was "You're dead, and I'm done. Later fuckers"

I just worry that people will get bored if I don't do something different every now and then. That's why there was the AJ minigame, and why Threshold is all over the place now. Do people really not get bored of just following a character around in their daily life?

You realize day to day slice of life is 'something different', right?

Yeah, him going 'LOLOLO I LE TRICKED U' every time he does it is so goddamn annoying
>>25905549
>He really needs to shut up when he's running his quest.
Sometimes he'll forgo writing the quest just so he can argue with the players. Some of his threads hit bump limit with like 3 story related posts.
>>25905629
Yeah, and it's him writing this one, he just dropped the name, I think his trip is still the same.
>>
>>25905636
Slice Of Life IS a genre.
>>
>>25905661
and a shitty episode as well
>>
>>25905636
SoL is a part of all the popular cyoas. People love characters just interacting.
>>
>>25905636
Holly has plenty of opportunity for intrigue in her day to day life.

Especially since she kind of hates everyone. The social aspect is probably the most important.

Gonna be honest, your waifu was pretty safe anyway. Nobody wants to hurt Brandy.

Ah damn, I read the first few he did, with spaghetti/changeling Luna. Some of the few Anon stories Ive really enjoyed. I read through the RoL and he just came across as a total faggot.
>>
>>25905452
I'd just like to say that I'm perfectly fine with the harpy thing, just so you know not everyone is bothered by it, it seemed like an ok way to end the thread for the night. We'll just reload anyway so death doesn't matter much.
I kinda enjoy the snarky death puns.

Look I didn't follow this CYOA, I stopped following it after a few posts in, and I only read like the 8 last posts because of the latest drama
But hey, hear me out, I'm trying to make a point

What if you played as the colt, decided to find out how to use the book to stop Sombra's magic, and for some reason only Aurora (that's her name, right?) was the only one who could fully understand the book
Then you could go on a mission trying to find a way to resurrect her
I mean it's bullshit and we all know it, but if you guys really want her back...

it's not a crystal statue though, it's just stone.

Personal space?

Wasn't exactly stone. It was crystals, and it wasn't clean either. You ever seen what frostbite does to your cells? Every part of her body became a crystal.

She was even given a cure by a side character, which didn't work.
