>QM Question:
What genre do you enjoy writing about?
>Player Question:
What is your favorite genre?
>>46000737
>Player
Love fantasy and scifi. I go to quests for the escapism mostly.
>>46000737
>Player
I liked both SoL and action with a preference to modern fantasy. But I am more about the characters and interactions, than the genre.
>>46000737
>Player
I prefer fantasy, especially in a well designed, consistent setting. I have no preference on specific time periods.>QM
I guess fantasy, since I don't think I'm capable of doing anything else well at allAlthough that isn't to say I can do fantasy well either.
>>46000737
>>QM Question:
I guess right now it's Urban Fantasy? I want to be able to write other stuff when my current quest is over.
>>Player Question:
This is a hard one, I'd have to say Fantasy. Although I participate in a BUNCH of different quest genres.
I want to run a quest set in stereotypical High Fantasy, sort of in the same vein as the original Final Fantasy games.
Does anyone have any advice?
>posted <10 minutes before Monday
Did you really have to?
Once again, this is an interest check for a game where you lead a team of techpriests on a mission.
New question: What do YOU want from a game like this?
RUN IT AGAIN ULTRAWHORE
>Beware of Anticlimactic Endings has an anticlimactic ending.
>>46002172
>>46002172
I loved that salt
>>46001629
Techpriests doing techpriest things.And a non-grimdark ending for once.
>>46001948
HE'S NEVER RUNNING IT AGAIN
DESPAIR, ANON, DESPAIR
>>46001629
So what's the pitch, other than drawquest and directing a team of techpriests?
>>46002231
Good End available
You got it buddy
>>46002482
I don't want to write the full pitch until I'm sure I'm actually doing it but it's something like this:
Your team is being sent to reclaim a mechanicus facility that was temporarily abandoned after a generator failure and containment breach killed nearly all the staff and rendered the area unlivable. You have what you need to fix the problem, all you need to is get your team down to the generator to do their work.
Because the atmosphere in the facility is currently toxic, humans can not survive inside for extended periods of time. Therefore you must split your 8 person team into smaller groups and rotate who is inside, giving them time to cleanse their systems. To provide continuity, you accompany every group via a servoskull that you are remoting into from your ship. From there you organize their operations and help them navigate through obstacles.
>>46002172
Yeah, that was pretty great, especially considering that anon walked right into it like a chump.
Personally though, I kind of like how it was short and sweet. Like it didn't want to overstay its welcome, or run the joke into the ground too much. Which, considering the limited (albeit entertaining) premise, was probably the right call.
>>46002172
You have to admit, Nano really knows how to manipulate anon to do exactly what they want.
>>46002669
Just to get it out of the way, will there or will there not be waifus?
>>46002288
FUCK YOU, I'LL JUST USE "THAT"
>>46003073
if you want to bump your servoskull against a techpriests's faceplate, yes
yes you can
>>46003190
Who said that relations have to be sexual? Besides, not like techpriests got the parts down there anyway, probably replaced them with poison auto-injectors or something.
>>46003215
You will have the opportunity to build loving relationships with some members of your team
Can anybody recommend me a good sci-fi civ/empire building quest?
>>46003456
Hive Queen, but it might be dead so don't expect a conclusion or live threads right now.
Death among the Stars has killed Reviewanon because he was a star... Review In Pace
I just finished my first quest and the archive got 11 upvotes, feels good man
>>46004212
Typically first threads get bloated votes on sup/tg/ and after the first 4-5 threads, they plop down to something you can expect to be your "regular" score.
But congratulations, and try not to let imaginary approval from an arbitrary website influence you too much one way or another.Even if it feels good, it'll discourage you later.
>>46004212
Archive your own threads next time so it doesn't look like a jackass did it.
Looking forward to the next one by the way.
>>46004212
Hope I catch it live at some point. I always give new Bleach shit a fair shake.
>>46004212
I enjoyed it man
Kinda makes me want to run my own bleach quest but i wanna be a drawfag before i run any quests
Today is the day. Today will finally be the day where I get over myself and finally start running my shitty, shitty quest. It'll be later today. Would you guys mind it if I archive it and ask you guys for feedback in the next quest discussion thread?
>>46005855
yes, that's perfectly fine. And look at this this way: it's only shitty, shitty when it hasn't run yet!Then it'll just be shitty.Improvement!
>>46005855
Whats the quest? If im on when its run ill pop in
>>46005855
Give it your best shot! Don't give up until the end!
>>46006105
So I should give up at the end?
>>46006120
Actually? Yes. Don't drag a quest out longer than its natural end.
>>46006120
Well, yes, if it's done, then you can give up. Otherwise you'd keep going after the end, and no one wants that.
>>46006120
How can you give up on something after it's ended? That's pretty confusing, anon.
>>46000737
> QM Question:

Can always give the corpse a couple of kicks, kinda like how Azure and FQOP did.
>>46006281
Sex is actually the least interesting part of the whole thing, as the PCs can't actually enjoy the sex part. It's the buildup to it that's far more interesting. I just like players being free to do whatever they want, and to make big, setting-altering changes. Then have things play out from there.
>>46006284

He's been showing signs of life lately. I hope he'll do something.

The QM told him last weekend that he could drop it if he wanted.
Kinda funny how a quest about undead killed someone irl
>>46004107
>>46006740
What the fuck, someone killed himself over a quest? What the hell happened?
>>46006750
The curse is evolving, it targets to the players now.

Do you guys have any general tips to share with me? I'm still pretty much a novice at running quests and I want to learn from those with more experience than me.
>>46007389
read the OP.
>run quest
>have never seen it talked about
I'm not sure if it's a result of overwhelming mediocrity or if my players all love it so much that they want to keep it a jealously guarded secret.Probably the former.
>>46007422
Regardless of popularity, QTG tends to focus in on a few quests it can reliably shitpost about and only really talk about those. You shouldn't be too hard on yourself about it.
>>46007422
this is why you at least link it in this thread.Some anons might be afraid that the QM doesn't want wqdt shitposting.
Oh yeah, anyone know when the next God Game is on? I need to know when I'm supposed to deliver another piece of artwork for the godly halls.
>>46007446a quest I follow got talked about one day consistently for a few hours while it was also running, and there were no noticeable instances of shit posting in the quest itself
>>46007488
I didn't say it was a RATIONAL fear. Something something, it's only polite, something.
>>46007534
oddly enough, in the weekend quest discussion thread there was someone claiming to be shit posting without knowing about the quest, but he was only really asking questions and being angrily curious about the quest. I think he was a nice fellow who was admittedly just a touch hung over.One anon called him Pat in spoilers. I hope he's having a better day today.
Lost in the Darkness Quest
The protagonist is an infected wandering around the ruins of some city, scavenging for food when they aren't getting shot at by survivors or fighting other infected, all the while being tormented by memories of their life that they can't seem to forget despite being a flesh-rending abomination. To the surprise of whatever humanity's left in the protag, they don't even want to eat the people they feel so driven to kill -- they just loot junkfood from the dilapidated shops like everyone else.
It would probably be a one shot or at most rather short unless I pull a ton of extra stuff out of my ass.Too wangsty/SODEEP feeling?
>>46007755
Sounds good.Just don't focus on the fact that everything is so dark and awful. Instead show us how the PC views things, esp since it's a oneshot and thus you won't be able to get to know the PC.
>>46007755
I had a similar idea, but a little more upbeat and contemplative in tone.
MC left the base some time after being infected, planning to just kill zombos until he turned, only to find that he'd killed a hundred and still felt MOSTLY fine.
Without the fear of being bitten, MC now has to figure out how best to maintain "humanity", whether it's fighting loneliness, picking up old habits like brushing teeth or fun hobbies, trying to regain memories he didn't know he lost, or looking for some zombie cure. All this to not become a zombie, or at least convince himself that he isn't one.
>>46000737
Action
Why was anyone butthurt at BAE quest?
Every development was predictable as fuck. Someone snarkily called them out before they happened every time.
I'm also considering the possibility that the long wait between updates was caused by Nano stealing ideas from the audience.
>>46008499
People probably assumed he would not just end the quest when he did, but surprisingly he had the balls to pull it off.
I just laughed.
>>46008539
Me too. I thought all the frantic shadowruns were people jokingly trying to understand the rules of the game. Turns out they were really that invested. Weird.
>>46008499
Seemed like a vocal minority were actually tricked and salty. Most people laughed.
>>46008499

It was quite fun and knew not to outstay its welcome. I liked it.
>>46008721
Well, it ended anti-climatically. Would not recommend reading in archives, but it was fun live.
How the hell does planefag pull in so many IPs and shitposts in each thread? It's fucking mystifying.
>>46008940
I don't even know where those faggots go when he's not running

He's been doing this for a long time?
There are people who frequent this board and know who he is without ever participating in his threads?
The power of anime?
Who knows? I was never into his stuff.
I want to start a quest in a few minutes but.... maybe not. I don't know, it feels like a worthless and horribly thought out effort. I can already see the posts that call me cancer and tell me everything is boring and stupid and that I don't know how the English language works.

>>46009540
I guess I don't have a real pitch then. The idea was having rivals, including a gaijin ojou-sama, who also want to compete for senpai's attention and are willing to "remove" you from the scene if you start hogging senpai's attention. Other than that I just wanted to give my players a lot of freedom to do as they pleased, which includes wrecking the game and jumping the shark (>implying the premise itself didnt'jump the shark). I'd also like to give the players the freedom to decide in what way they want to make protagonist-chan Best Girl.
>>46006396

>>46009762
Tang is always an option.
>>46009604
>a lot of freedom to do as they pleased
I'm not sure we'd actually do anything unless given hints, pointers and warning sirens on what to do.
>>46009656
D-doushio~
>>46009700
I'm kind of afraid of losing track after a while and not being able to keep the game focused, just likewhat happened to he last quest I ranwith plot points being brought up but never resolved because the players have no interest in pursuing them, and my inability to present them with a new and better option. In other words, we keep running in circles and by thread 8 everyone has bailed on me.
How do I prevent this from happening? Does it help that the prize in this case is an actual person? And what do I do if my players roll really well and succesfully confess to senpai straight off the bat?
Speaking of roll, how do most QMs deal with rolls? Or should I forget about rolls altogether?
New WrestleQuest (AKA Slice-of-life with the occasional bit of wrasslin' thrown in) thread is up if anyone's interested >>46009205
>>46009852
>the players have no interest in pursuing them
Maybe give the players incentives to actually complete them? How about making the plot points relate to the overall goal?
>what do I do if my players roll really well and successfully confess to senpai straight off the bat?
Relationship drama? Things happen to try and get the two heroes apart?
>>46009852
If the plot points are related to people, have the people get right back in your face to remind you that they're there and the plot is happening.
If it's something like the schools 7 mysteries or confessing under the cherry tree, decide whether you think it's important enough to keep.
The main character should be in a position where it's impossible for them to confess immediately, because Senpai doesn't know who they are and he'd just be confused. So you raise the flags, beat off the opposition, try to prevent their relationship events and then confess. If it helps you or the players to have a Love-o-meter, go for it. Whatever works.
>>46010021
>>46009852
The other thing I'd say is that you should have something else going on.
If everyone in the school has some kind of trauma that makes them act up, maybe there's a history behind it. Maybe there's a supernatural cause. Maybe you're all trapped in a VN.
/tg/ loves playing detective, and the hint of some magical shit will drive them wild, even if the majority of your plot is actually about waifus. Tasogare Otome Amnesia was a perfect example of a waifu driven show that was kept fresh because the main girl was a ghost and that led to interesting subplots. A lot of it was filler, but it didn't matter.
>>46009050
German Hollow Quest #2 is now live
One of my readers was kind enough to remind me to advertise here, I'm dumb
>>46009430
New Quest and I need some Anons to play it!
>>46010195
That is a good idea. I haven't thought about anything like that. I'll need a few days to think about that I think. I guess I won't be running the quest today after all.The irony is that in the last quest I did, the one that failed, I was on the verge of introducing some supernatural elements but decided against it because I thought it'd be stupid and clash with the setting. I guess I was wrong there.
>>46010208
Can't, bout to head out the door.
I will say that you should put on a trip though instead of only namefagging.
>>46010255
Build them into the setting and use art that fits the mood, and you should be okay.
I'd recommend you run over the weekend, once you've had some time to get everything you need for a couple of threads together. Having a /wqt/ to announce your thread in gives you more readers too.
>>46010286
>and use art that fits the mood
I can't draw though. Not at all.
>I'd recommend you run over the weekend, once you've had some time to get everything you need for a couple of threads together.
Good idea. I wanted to do it on weekdays because a quest I'm participating in (Be the BEG) runs on weekends, but I'll just have to multitask then: running one quest while participating in another.
But thanks for the advice though. You've gotten me thinking on a "deeper" layer to the superficial quest.
How do you guys feel about soft reboots?
Say a quest begins a certain way, there's a timeskip and suddenly things have changed significantly. Are you more interested as to why everything is different, or is the change discouraging?
>>46010345
>I can't draw though. Not at all.
So steal it off the internet. Use the right tags and you can find anything here.
http://danbooru.donmai.us/posts?utf8=%E2%9C%93&tags=
>>46010420
Depends on how far you are along with the quest. I would find the change very discouraging if I was invested in the premise it was before.
However, if you timeskip in the earlier threads of a quest, it would be interesting, I guess? It really is up to you to make the premise more interesting than what it was before the timeskip.
>>46010345
>I can't draw though.
Lemme give you a tip, son.
Steal. Steal everything and anything you come across.
>>46008940
Multiple IPs for extra shitposting

Jesus. That sounds like a complete clusterfuck every thread.
>>46011133
Is it a /pol/ quest?
>>46011399
Nah, it's inevitably a Murrika quest, no matter what Japshit he's making terrible fanfiction for.
>>46011338
Its actually pretty...tame considering.
It mostly goes like this.
>Planefag OP w/ prompts
>Shittons of votes come in
>Planefag calls vote, begins to write, usually takes an hour or more.
>In the meantime players just...talk about random shit like its a chatroom or sometimes shitpost at each other.
>Planefag finally updates
>Shitton of votes
>Rinse repeat
That said there is only about 3 updates until they need a new thread cause its in auto sage and image limit was reached within the first couple of hours.
>>46011461
>>Shittons of votes come in
Most of these things aren't even obviously votes, it's just some clusterfuck of dank memes and conversation carried directly across from the IRC. Honestly, nothing there makes any sense, especially when you factor in the three or four roleplaying faggots going off on one.
It's not a quest thread so much as a circus with a set theme.
>>46011550
Don't insult actual circuses

He has a direct feed to two of the greatest pools of underage autism on the internet.
Sooooo, I don't even know if this is the appropriate place to ask but are Super Stand Sundays still a thing? Or the other one on Wednesday? Wacky WRRRYY I think it was?
I'm mostly looking for just anything to help me along in putting together a JoJo Quest. I've done most of it on my own but I thought I could look at the those pdfs maybe steal a couple Stand ideas. With permission of course.

I don't think I can read these words without being reminded of BoAE anymore.
Thinking of doing a state sec quest, where you play as an officer in a dystopian state. Possibly might tie in with Shadowrun, Judge Dredd, XCOM2, Warhammer 40k or another established universe.
Interest?
>>46018959
Might be cool
Narrow down your plan a little for me
>>46018982
Initially it'll play out like a police procedural sandbox. I want it to be open ended, with the players having the option to go rogue or go by the book.
First off it'd be a bit of worldbuilding. Go patrol, investigate crimes or oppress some civilians, that kind of thing. Get a feel of the character - corrupt? by the book? - and work out their alignment, the same with introducing more characters on both sides of the fence.
There's going to be at least three major factions with plenty of minor ones either as independents or a subfaction of a major power, and it's up to the player to side with one, play them against each other or try and start their own so they can come out on top as king of the city/country/world.
>>46019144
>Initially it'll play out like a police procedural sandbox. I want it to be open ended, with the players having the option to go rogue or go by the book.
>sandbox
Are you a new QM? If so, don't fucking sandbox.
>>46019497
I've attempted running a couple games. I'll keep that in mind.
>>46019527
Players on /tg/ are idiots
They don't know what to do in a sandbox, so you have to give them invisible rails to ride on
But god forbid they notice, they'll flip a shit
>>46019714
Don't tell me /tg/ plays quests as if they turn off their brains while playing vidya.
>>46019714
Implying that not all players are idiots XD
Yep, I'll see about that then.
Hmm, why not, I'll give this shit a shot.
>>46019734
Depends on who you get honestly.
I've seen playerbases (usually the smaller ones) be really smart about stuff.
I've seen others be fucking retarded and miss the simplest of shit.
>>46019734
It's not their fault. They're just bad at... Making choices and taking action.
>>46019714
>>46019734
If there's no basic story they'll dick around for a while then get bored. That's what happened in that Wander quest that some guy started up a few hours back.
>>46020109
From glancing at it, it looks like Wander quest does have some sort of plot, something about zombies and looking for survivors.
It would greatly benefit from some more in-depth story posts though.
Can anyone recommend any good shoegaze songs? Let's just say I'm looking for different shoegaze-style songs for different situations.

The entire album Loveless by My Bloody Valentine. Ringo Deathstarr puts on a good show, give their albums a listen.
QMs: How much planning do you guys put into your quests?
Any loli quests running?
>>46022147
Personally, I plan most things well in advance with broad strokes, but only start to fill in the details when it comes time to. I also try not to be too rigid in what my plans, because a popular write-in answer to a decision could make things take a very different turn than originally intended, making my planning worthless.

No spooky.
>>46009813
>>46022147
I used to just wing it and see where the players took everything. Now,I pre-write so much I haven't even felt like running my quest anymore...
>>46022630
Spoiler that shit nigga.
>>46022630
Run on akun. You'll get your playerbase for sure.
>>46021171
>shoegaze
>>46021521
I got curious after hearing a fair chunk of Ling Toshite Shigure and Blue Encount, so this explains the hunt for a certain style of shoegaze.
>>46022630
Are we chargenning for our BBEG?
>>46022708
>Run on akun
Don't listen to this guy.
>>46022688
I'll keep it in mind for next time. M'bad.
>>46022737
Yea will be chargenning almost everything for the faction actually. BBEG, force composition, starting location 'n all that shit.
>>46022147
I plan the beginning post, a good portion of how I want the thread(s) to end, and not much in between. I do have some events written up but generally I let anon do most of the steering. I plan concepts, tone, and useless trivia more than anything.
>>46022795
I'll be honest, that sounds like a terrible idea. You might have too many choices and not enough content.
>>46022795
When will you start it?And is it true chargen?
What quests are good magical realms? The thirst is upon me and I want to be entertained.
What's THE MOST magical realm quest?
>>46023159
Probably something on Akun.
>>46023159
Akun fulfills all your magical realm needs.
>>46022837
I do plan to tone it down to like 2-4 choices past the character themselves.
EG:
Your army is made up of
[ ] Armored Legions (Bonus siege/urban fighting)
[ ] Cavalry Horde (Bonus to plains fighting)
[ ] Slaves and conscripts (Recovers casualties faster)
It's elite is made up of
[ ] Mage-Knights (Mage cavalry)
[ ] Elemental Mages (Artillery)
[ ] Dragon riders (Sky cavalry)
[ ] Demons/Monsters (Terror infantry)
>>46022966
An hour or so. Planning shit out right now. Trying to find some way of generating a Civ-style map.
Sorry for late reply, forgot I shouldn't post NSFW on /tg/
>>46023188
>>46023207
This is probably true, but I've heard horror stories about Akun and it intimidates me. Anything on /tg/?
>>46023249
Not much smut on here. Try Warlord's quests. One is where the MC is stereotypical hentai orc warlord that rapes/mindbreaks his way to conquer the land.
The other one has an MC thats a priest of a Sex God.
>>46023240
http://inkarnate.com/
>>46023292
He also has golem knight quest which . . .exists?
And he runs a NTR/the version of NTR where you're the one doing the cuckolding quest about a yu-gi-oh clone
>>46023292
>>46023484
>Orc warlord rape/mindbreak
This sounds heavenly....what threads on sup /tg/ have the goods?
...Who/what exactly do we mindbreak?Please be haughty elf princess...
>>46023575
http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Orc%20Warlord%20Quest
Go nuts. I don't have specifics on 'Who' since I don't read it, but I'm sure your guess is in there.
>>46023575
No princesses yet, Warlord goes really slow.
Elven warrior chick.
Lamia Dragon Cultist.
Centaur Adventurer.
Two human witches.
One ogre witch.
Dwarven jew.
Ancient Human Noble, closest thing to princess.
Two harpies.
A water fey
A regular old human chick who is literally the 'mom' of our harem
And we have three orc mates
>>46023665
>literally
Fuck me for saying literally when i mean figuratively
>>46023665
>Elven warrior chick
WHICH THREAD?
>>46023733
It happens over a series of threads.
But yeah, she starts off hating us and then we sorta mindbreak her but she still hasn't gone full "I WANT YOUR DIIIIIIICK"
None of them really do. They want the dick but they still retain their personalities. You should start from the beginning
So why is orc warlord still allowed on /tg/? We're a blue board and that fetish smut shit is pretty creepy.
>>46023910
I dunno.
Maybe cause there is a kind of empire building mechanic instead of it being straight smut?
>>46023910
>unironically using the word creepy on 4chan
>being bothered by fetishes on /tg/ of all places
Orc Warlord inferior.
Disciple of Elshhu superior.
>>46023910
Text is almost never considered NSFW, even if it's graphic and smutty.
>>46024036
This and
>>46023943
>empire building mechanic
Oh, and that makes it SO much better. We break up the fucking with worldbuilding. Okay bro, whatever.
>>46024036
Except for when it is, like with Modern Satyr, right?
So basically as long as mods share a fetish with you you're perfectly fine and can write whatever the fuck you want.
>>46024024
What's disiciple of Elshhu like?
So we got Orc warlord and DOE. Anything else?
>>46024036
I've seen a few smut quests destroyed within two to five threads.
But maybe>>46023943
has a point. It also runs pretty infrequently from what I see. So maybe that allows it to fly under the radar a bit? Who knows.
So if I wanted to run a smutty Civ-style quest, where could I run it? /h/?
Also here's a map for BBEG quest.
>>46024323
Huh. Smutty civilization quest using hexagonal grid?
Sounds like aspiring emperor, but honest.
Zing!
>>46024222
It's by the same guy. Warrior monk of a sex goddess who gains mana via sex (or at least sexual tension) running around in not!Ravnica fighting crime. Generally humorous, or lewd, or humorously lewd.
>>46024358
Pretty much. I've been pitching it in my head as 'kuroinu meets Civ V'.
>>46024222
I believe he has a few sex scenes in Golem Knight.
>>46024222
Mechagirl Pitfighter quest is new, and insanely magical realm. It'll probably be banned soon.
How is this still here on a Tuesday?
>>46024726
>Tuesday
How is the future?
>>46024726
Inertia
Are Weekend Quest Discussion Threads usually strictly limited to weekends?
>>46024770
>strictly
no, the people who REALLY care about keeping it to the weekends....don't regularly go to wqdt.
So really, as long as the threads don't blow up in shitposting, nobody gives enough of a shit to lock it down.
So if I were to run a Doomsayer Quest, where the MC is blessed with visions of a god of destruction about to wipe the slate clean, what other goals could I have aside from getting others to repent?
>>46024743
It is pretty dark, also rainy.
>>46024770
Normally you can only start them on weekends, this is due in part to the previously constant Quest Thread Generals being a blight of endless shit posting. Usually this gets dropped into autosage if its still up long enough on monday. Don't know why it hasn't.
I like running quests. It provides me a simple joy.
>>46024834
>Quest thread generals being a blight of endless shit posting.
Like this isn't?
>>46024860
I mean there's been some decent discussion here today... Sort of.
>>46024860
This is nothing.
Say what you want about how helpful WQDT is, but it's not nearly as fucking bad as it could be.
>>46024860
Far far worse. And constant. Falling off board after reaching the bumplimit their own speed within an afternoon. And then there was another, just as fast and merciless.
They were dark times. QM Imoutospam everywhere.
If anyone feels like creating a new skirmish quest, feel free to join us here: >>46024933 .
>>46007422
You sound like me a few months ago. Don't worry, the crushing lack of popular recognition will perniciously gnaw at you until you go on hiatus and wrestle with whether or not you want to come back or if you need to focus on real life instead. Then you'll have a bunch of gear ideas that you'll blow off because it's not worth it but which you'll find yourself doing little write ups on because you miss it. By then maybe you can't run anymore because you're short of free blocks of 4-8 hours and just settle for lurking in the weekend discussion threads and watching people wish the qm of hive queen will return.
>>46007422
>tfw I've never know this feelIt ain't all it's cracked up to be, kid.
Anyone ever ask GraveQM to try contacting QuestDrone?
>>46024902
QTG was also constructive when it wasn't shitposting, only remembering the bad parts (like the multiple thread long futa (or was it trap?) discussion that got it finally kicked off the board is unfair to it.
I would say WQDT feels a lot less so in that department, and if I were to try to compare the two I would say that WQDT feels a lot more 'sanitized' compared to QTG, for better and for worse.
Like, it doesn't have the bad parts of QTG, but it also lacks the good parts and just kind of sits somewhere in the middle. Not that that is necessarily a bad thing of course.
Take all this as you will of course, it's just the ramblings of an anon that has nothing better to do.
>>46024233
>>46024036
And then there's the times when it doesn't have any smut and they ban it for being smut because they're illiterate.
How should I go about making a derivative work to another QM's quest which wasarguablypopular? Their quest is done but I feel like I could write more. Do I get their permission?what if they don't browse /tg/ anymore?
>>46026159
If it's a fan work, asking them about it is only polite. If it merely takes the ideas and has the serial numbers filed off, you probably don't need to ask them for permission.
>>46026159
name the quest bitch
>>46026277BoAE
>>46026361
It literally just ended. No, you can't make a fucking derivative quest for at least one whole year you fucking coattail riding fuckwit.
>>46026361
You know adding more kinda goes against the point of the quest.
>>46026411
>>46026442
Beware of Shitty Sequels from Greed
>>46026361
Jesus, you all are so invested. You realize that none of the characters had substance, and that what made them shine was Nano's execution right?
>>46026411
Author said they don't plan on making any sequels to the quest.
>>46026459
ayy lmao
>>46026495
Actually, wait. >>46026459 Makes a great point.
Yeah, make the shitty derivative quest. But you have to be a total attention whore of a QM and have the characters admit they're being pimped out to suit your whims, fancies, ego and need for more.
Like, shit, that's actually pretty meta, pretty up its own ass, it's fucking perfect.
Fucking run that quest anon.
>>46026516
That's a shitton better than my idea.somebody else with better writing do this shit instead.
I actually feel bad getting angry at Nano now. Guy seems nice.
>>46026662
>Killed off his playerbase
Whoever asked that question should speak for himself and only himself.
The only ones salty are idiots that didn't see this coming in spite of the quest title.
>>46026693
What even was the ending?
>>46026843
It was anti-climatic. MC gets his shit together about to start a new day, then it ends.
As advertised.
>>46026859
And people are up in arms about this? I've seen less salt spilled over that loli monstergirl oneshot that ended with the protag getting publicly executed
>>46026912
Its just a vocal minority if the suptg votes are any indication. A very loud one.
Its not really a big deal.
>>46026662
BoAE was the first quest I read from Nano and honestly I liked it. What else does he run?
>>46026966
Didn't he run that How to Tame Your Dragon smutquest back in the day?
>>46026966
Nothing else so far and we don't know if he's planning to write a new quest.
>>46027008
What, no.
>>46027518
I could've sworn that was him.
>>46026966
ran Diety Quest QUITE some time ago.
spoiler, anons were also idiots then.
German Hollow quest is pretty fun.
Happy fun times in Auschwitz.
>>46023665
>Dwarven jew.
Isn't she more like a Dwarven gypsy?
There are fucktons of fantasy maps online just sitting around. I don't really want to take the time to make my own map and I've found one that more or less works with the general positioning of stuff, number of countries, etc.
Is it in bad taste to just go ahead and swipe the map for use in my quest?
>>46028180
I just knew it had to be another fuckin /pol/ quest
Crusader quest status report when?
>>46030206
You mean this?
http://pastebin.com/Fd0rzrYZ
Has a new monster adventure quest started yet?
I sort of fell in a hole and read lamia daughter, oversized weapon, scorpion girl, and re:monster all right in a row.
