>West Mediterranean Sea
Nice weather, preexisting infrastructure and art, and near the center of a Mercator projection.
>High Tech 20
Literally no reason not to take Sufficiently Advanced Tech instead.
>+2 WIS 16
It's the hardest stat to replace with computers, it helps my citizens not be pointlessly contrarian, and Fallout stats are horseshit for anything that isn't Fallout.
The fact that it's basically an auto-win button is entirely incidental.
>Transformations
Total of 12 points.
>>Base Change: Shapeshifter 13
Basically just directed, perfected regeneration.
>>Major Change: Splice 11
Can take simple organs, instincts, etc. from a given sample of DNA from other species - eagle eyes are simple to add, cat ears take some skeletal changes, and insect exoskeletons ain't happening. Piecemeal changes require survival throughout the entire process.
>>Major Change: Kinesthetics 9
Giving people a sense for their internal layout. This is very important.
>>Major Change: Semi-infectious 7
Large blood transfusions can slowly transform other creatures into this species effectively shapeshifted into their previous form. If people can be somehow converted without a Soulforge, just replace this with increased lifespan, faster regeneration (ergo shapeshifting), lessened need for food/air/sleep, etc.
>>Major Change: Wit 5
Greatly increased 'social reflexes' and ability to think on feet. No effect on long-term planning skills or actual quality of jokes.
>>Minor Change: Chill 4
A general attitude of not sweating the small stuff.
>Monolith IV 1
Are the bonuses cumulative? What are 'retcon' effects? I'm assuming this lets me shapeshift my citizens within the limits of their species - that is, anything mammalian.
>Crystal Ball 1 0
Conference calls with No Tech hexes might be useful, and there isn't a whole lot else that cheap.

I plan on just sorta hanging around and diplomaticizing hexes (and possibly aliens) into being friendly.

Would you play a another PACYOA?

Also, if it's a light RPG that's based off of Shadowrun combat, would it still fit in as a cyoa, sans the combat rulebook?
It'd be formatted similarly to PACYOA TE though
>>
>>46408152
Having concrete things of build A is better than build B in situation C but not in D is cool, but involving actual rolls and such is generally not a good idea. Having stories to go with things are cool, but not circlejerks
>>
>>46408184
There'd be no rolling involved for the actual CYOA part, it'd basically be like the original PACYOA; tacked on rules, but this time actually done sensibly for those who actually want to do the rpg

My plan is to have the cyoa to make people want to join the rpg but i know there's a market of people who would play a (mostly) simple rpg on /tg/

Fun fact! They layout is matched up with eachother: each archangel is a virtue and each demon is a sin. Azriel, first on archangel cyoa, is patience, the opposite of which is wrath, represented by the first on the demon cyoa: Felira, and so on

They made her a bit more violent on 1.0.1 or 1.0.2. See her power how it describes turning her foes into red mist? That got added, and they made limbo a bit meaner to try to justify it, and giving her the pro of enjoying fighting monsters; but the virtue of patience is all about NOT being violent.

Not seeing any major changes in this one either. Whatever.

For the record:
>best angel
Kristel, angel of diligence. Because fun in AND out of the bedroom. There's no weeb angel unfortunately, but I like electronica, and I could probably get her into vidya pretty easily. Honorable mention to Irinael, angel of kindness
>best place in heaven
high-class penthouse. Because class.
>best angel-maid
Golems, made into abstract beings but still wearing the traditional french maid outfits so it looks all kinds of ridiculous

>best demon
Mhyrienne, demon of envy. I actually find her picture cute, plus my number 1 fetish is SCIENCE. I can just imagine playing god in a holodeck of her creation, making my own virtual world. Plus jet packs. Felira's pretty solidly in second
>best hell house
Floating fortress. Simbly epig, plus I get to be neighbors with mai waifu
>best demon-maid
loli changelings for maximum adorable-ness

Overall best roomate is Mhyrie, which is kinda hard for me to admit since I'm generally all holy all the time.

When I make companions, I find art first and write based on the characters. It is much easier to find non-porn, non-fetish art of girls that are made in a similar artstyle to my other companions.
It is not as easy to find men (who aren't either lolsorandumb traps or generic stoneface "I exist only to fight" men).
Post an album of boys and men in the same artstyle as in the CYOA, and maybe they'll be added to companion DLC 2.

How to fix CYOAs:
>>
>>46410640
When was the first cyoa posted on 4chan? Mid-2000's? Maybe I can warn people about catastrophes, terror attacks, the financial crisis.. And once my creds as a modern day Nostradamus are established, climate change!

Also I get a sweet computer.
>>
>>46410719
It just says first cyoa ever posted, that doesnt mean 4chan. Personally I like to think it'll throw you back into the dark ages where some guy nailed up a cyoa on some public message board

>Using your powers for good, not taking credit for making all the best CYOAs

>>46410719

Nice plan. Given a bit of advance warning, the lads at East Anglia could delete those embarrassing emails before they leaked. The damage that whole thing did to the narrative and the public acceptance of the One World Government agenda was incalculable.

I feel like making a nice short CYOA
It'll have three sections:
World
Secret identity
Superpowers
It's a superhero CYOA.

Don't make it as overpowered as Worm. Street-level vigilantes are cool too. Hell, Daredevil's power is that he's blind.
>>
>>46411549
Daredevils power is he can fucking see sound, which makes invisibility fucking useless and invis is a top tier power
>>
>>46411168
A few of my favorite sort of powers:

Actually being able to BECOME your element if you have typical one-element powers (like how Iceman becomes made of ice). Is typically more useful with less solid elements such as air or water. Just being able to control an element isn't as exciting as being able to become it.

Density control, that is, that ability to change the mass but not the volume of your body. Allows you to give a really powerful punch, boost your defense, pin someone down and deal massive damage by standing on them, etc. If used to become lighter immediately after jumping, it would get you far more distance. It would need enough natural defense, though, that you can do ultra-heavy falls on people as an attack. If it needs to be more powerful of a power, just let it apply to objects you touch, for as long as you touch them, letting you easily pick up cars or be destructive with a paper hammer.

Kirby inhalation where your stomach is pretty much a black hole & you can suck things in. To be useful, you'd have to either be able to stretch your mouth open a lot or things being pulled in would have to be reduced in size as they head towards you. If this isn't tough enough, throw in some variant of copy power, either like Kirby or perhaps that one guy from One Piece.

Shapeshifting. It has a variety of sneaky uses, which many offense-only powers to not. For added potency, it might contain weaponized shapeshifting such as forming a hardened shell, swordarms, etc.

The ability to either make portals to the near future or to a pocket dimension. Either way, you can make portals to absorb enemy attacks & send them the other way.
>>
>>46411087
>what do you mean climate change won't just change the entire planet in one specific way?
>there's no way weather could be that complex!
>>
>>46411549
This. Also, don't make it so we have to be as overpowered as we do in Worm. I like street level, but not when the real setting is cosmic horror.
>>
>>46411168
>World
>Any options you'd like to see?
A fantasy world would be neat. Maybe an otherwise sword & board setting.

>>46411505
I wouldn't mind being my own maid. I wouldn't be obliged to give myself any orders, either. And I do criticize my own CYOAs. I just have to consider myself to be one of my favorites, which I don't think is too difficult a stretch. When you think about it, you CYOA author that is yourself always includes the options you want most in their CYOAs. If someone else always did that, it would be wonderful. The only reason that the CYOA author that is yourself would have trouble keeping up in a favorites list is that you necessarily already know all the options. But looking at it purely in terms of what they produce, I'm going to like my own things a lot because they're exactly what I want.
>>
>>46411613
I like breaking things, if I made a CYOA that I could break I would be obligated to fix it. Then it wouldn't be a CYOA that I liked.
>>
>>46411632

>l-look at these solar funded studies that say solar is good!
>>
>>46411691

Like pic related, cosmic power. Void, blood, etc.
>>
>>46411698
Of course solar isn't "good". You won't have enough rare metals to equip everyone, and renewables will never replace fossil fuels. Doesn't mean anthropogenic climate change and environmental disturbances aren't real.
>>
>>46411168
I always like object creation and force construct creation. They'd have to be toned down from the versions commonly seen to be viable, but they're still my favorite powers.

Also, unusual takes on existing powers could be fun. Maybe the ability to shapeshift parts but not all of your body, for example? Or slowing time rather than super speed?

>>
>>46411759

weird, random powers with weird, random built-in "drawbacks." Careful that the drawbacks aren't too bad or it could ruin the CYOA for many people. Maybe more like odd power limitations.

I'm not a fan of this concept.

not at all. There's plenty I've liked before that didn't have them.

Dunno.
>Are waifus mandatory for a good cyoa?
Not mandatory, no.
>Will the times where we autistically discussed cyoas ever return?
That usually happens when someone mentions Pokemon Personified, so most likely.
>Why does no one post their builds anymore?
They do. The ones that don't either haven't gotten around to finalizing theirs yet, or they're too lazy/shy/(fitting adjective) to bother posting builds regardless.

You jest, but CYOAs are actually somewhat hard. They require quite a bit of time and some competency with software like gimp or photoshop.

>>46409713
Mhy really is the best. Careful with those changeling maids though, she gets jealous enough when you look at other women, you really don't want to see what she would be like when she finds you looking at other changeling women.

I'd want the changlings for variety outside of the typical human/demon model. I'll bet they could do monstergirls, or who knows what else. Plus with changeling powers myself we could always reverse things. Unfortunately I just couldn't do that to Mhyne, so I'd just stick to the sirens.

Can't believe anyone would pass up the pocket dimension in the Heaven CYOA though.

>>46411937
>Have you considered, you know, making it yourself?
Yes, but then I realized that even if I weren't too lazy to do it, I can't design for shit (and I mean systems and such, e.g. CYOA choices).
>No one else knows what you want.
Been thinking lately that maybe even I don't know what I really want.
>>
>>46411971
not really. It depends on your interest and knowledge in the subject, and how big you want to do it.
If you make a "pick one of X", you can make it in a matter of hours. If you don't include pictures you can make it even faster.

Yeah, but "hey, just come down to the corner of Pious and Main and pop into the energy field" seems... Off somehow. Plus, call me crazy, but I'd rather have an actual view rather than just watch a glorified TV.
>>
>>46412313
>You'll have to use more words
Okay, so-
>if you want help.
...eh, nevermind then.
But in case you're just that curious, the "what" being something along the lines of "what sort of stuff would I like to see in the CYOA", and the "how" being stuff like "how do I present it in a manner that's not simply a 'pick one' where all but one option are shit (and the one that isn't is the stuff I want)", among other things that I can't currently articulate.

Considering the amount of rigorous testing the Vatican would go through before they approve a Marian apparition and the strict amount of criteria each apparition has to go through I would say you could probably influence the king, certainly a great deal of peasants, but good luck on convincing the Pope.
>>
>>46412774
I think the Vatican will be a lot laxer with their testing with great demons straight from Hell walking the earth. And I have Worship, amplified by the carrot (Pleasure) and stick (Judge). If the Pope doesn't bulge, I can always have him replaced. Philip the Fair did just that a few ears prior.

>>46412850
It's not just the Pope but also the rest of the Vatican and whatever bishop is in the charge of where your apparition appears that have to be convinced. And the "pleasure" carrot is the worst way to do that. Christian mystics recognized the difference between pleasure and ecstasy (the latter of which was often just as painful as it was joyful). Again, it's a pretty rigorous test. Even the popular apparition Our Lady of Medjugorje in modern Croatia has never been approved despite its popularity precisely because both the Pope and the local bishop have said it has not met the rigorous standard to be approved.

>>46412948
Worship makes mortal 'adore me and find me worthy of adulation". Pleasure is a feeling of unadulterated bliss, not an orgasm. And Judge makes the target feel incredible guilt. Perfect for Catholics. I can also miraculously heal people.

I mean, maybe I'm underestimating the 14th century Church but were they really as rigorous and careful as they are now? They recognized miracles and saints pretty often, and I would actually be the real deal. I'd give out actual miracles left and right.

Spiritual pleasure, bro. If he's going around making people cream their pants by poking their endorphin zone he's not going to get the same effect.
>>
>>46413031
>>46413186
The physical pleasure of ecstasy is very specific though and is often accompanied by a great deal of suffering as well.

You'll be able to convince a few people to be the seers of your apparition. You'll even get a great following but the church at the time understood that many supernatural sources could cause visions and pleasure and are suspicious from the start. Remember, Joan of Arc was not considered a saint until the 20th century.

The church acknowledges many things as supernatural. It's a bit more difficult to get those things recognized as Divine though.

Y'all are forgetting that in that scenario "powerful beasts are inhabiting the world" ergo people are terrified and probably think the End is Nigh. So when a magical woman who looks just like Mary does in the paintings and makes you want to worship her appears... and helps you defeat the beasts... and heals the sick and the insane...

I mean why the heck would they reject me? I'd be their one hope in a scary world.

They would feel doubt maybe, but not guilt. Testing spirits was not only allowed but encouraged as a commandment. Apparitions that were approved would even submit to the authority or local bishops. Doubting an apparition that was approved later was seen, even by the apparitions themselves, as prudent rather than lacking in faith.

There's not enough to spend points on, or else you have too many and the options are too cheap.. Realm flavors are expensive, but assuming I stick to one I end up buying everything I want and then having another 5 or so points to dump into magic.

You are just restating the problem. I might as well make a build to show you.

>>
>>46414361
And how, exactly, are you going to make it fancier? The different realm flavors fit different builds, but generally they work best solo. Keep in mind it affects the entire realm, not by-region, so if you pick asian and arabian you are going to get a realm that's some weird mix of the two that I honestly can't even imagine properly.

There's not a lot you can do with enhancements either. 3 of them are tech level replacements, if and only if you want something other than medeival (magical land is already a sort of tech replacement as well, and I took that one). 4 of them are locations, which are also mutually exclusive. Everything else I already took.

It's a change, not an addition. And seriously there are only two more points you could possibly spend in that section, it still leaves you with 13 in the personals including freebies.

Hell, even if you did take more Flavors, you just end up getting more personal freebies, so you still end up with more points than perk options. That's before you take any of the drawbacks even, because of course you are going to take those if you want to make things interesting.

You're right I forgot to say each skill was 1pt on the skills page.

Quests and Damsels don't cost points. You can take more then 1 quest/damsel. It is of course up to you to decide how they'll react to each other or if they even meet.

Shield. We Captain Rome now.

I'd have made it more obvious the choice on page 1 affects stuff you get for free on page 2. I had to go back and change things.

sounds fun
Yes, I did realize all/most of the titles start with the same letter (sphinx snafu etc.)

God, it must have taken you forever to find all those pictures.

I have no interest in marrying her, but she's going to die for a crime she hasn't commited.

>>46414690
You have 1 point left over. I think you forgot to account for Soldier from the realm choice, which gives you a rank of melee master for free.

1 melee master, prince charming, and 1 cultured prince are all free here.
>>
>>46414546
Bard Prince has the music abilities in his list. I'll replace music enhancement with Bard Prince for clarity.

>>46414599
Realms cost the same as the abilities you get so you're not getting anything really for free, just the "feel" of your realm.

>>46414690
Figured people would spend more points on merging various realms so wanted them to be able to buy abilities and realm stuff but it seems everyones trying to min/max and go for skills, which is why there was a hard cap. Maybe I need to split points into 2 types or something to promote spending on other things besides skills.

Sorcerer Prince's second sentence. Should be the last of them on the first two pages.

>>46414767
Exactly my point. Wayyyy too many points.
It's basically wish-fulfillment, because it doesn't force you to choose

>>46414763
Dunno, it doesn't seem more complex than something like Stardust.

Hey does anyone have that Harry Potter CYOA. It's one of the ones I made a long time ago but I don't think I have it on my computer.
It's shit, but it's my shit. And I miss it.
>>
>>46414480
See? This is what I'm talking about. Too many points. I feel like some perks/enhancments should cost more than 1. It feels silly that being able to visit aliens with tech enhancement costs the same as being a master painter. Or add a 5 point perk to be able to have multiple damsels, because I would really like both Zariea and Taleri.

I guess I'd add roman realm, trader prince as the free art form, living land enhancement, and magical land enhancement.

Probably should've put in magical land enhancement in anyway, especially if I want Taleri's breasts to get bigger.
>>
>>46414799
>It's basically wish-fulfillment, because it doesn't force you to choose

Isn't that the goal of every cyoa?
>>
>>46414707
>>46414794

Mistake I always make. Thank you for pointing them out. Seems I have to do something more with the points anyway.
>>
>>46414799
>>46414818
Maybe not the goal of every CYOA, but since this is a CYOA about being an extra cool dream princes isn't the point of THIS CYOA supposed to be wish fulfillment? That seems to be the theme, guys.
>>
>>46414799
>It's basically wish-fulfillment, because it doesn't force you to choose
I don't think you're using a proper definition of wish fulfillment. Even the strictest CYOAs here give you amazing stuff. Unless they just fuck you over, but that's a different matter.
>>
>>46414734

Alas my subject I shall not be able to guide you in all things. Thus it is my solemn wish you learn to stand on your own two feet and judge cyoa on their own merits so that you may all grow to become fine men making /cyoag/ the greatest thread in the history of /tg/.
>>
>>46414736
That's fine. It's what inspired me to make this one anyway. It just grew beyond the base concept.
>>
>>46414705
>You can take more then 1 quest/damsel.

Oh, sweet. I still think there's too many points too, but if I can choose 2 damsels, then whatever. I'm happy.

Maybe there should be a perk or enhancement that makes harems/polygamy more common/accepted though.
>>
>>46414832
>Thus it is my solemn wish you learn to stand on your own two feet and judge cyoa on their own merits so that you may all grow to become fine men making /cyoag/ the greatest thread in the history of /tg/.

We're just one tier above quest threads in shittiness and autism.
>>
>>46414694


But Sire- what of the presence of Highlander and AliceAnon? Normal men break beneath such autism.
>>
>>46414840
Not complaining, personally I find yours way more fun and although I haven't made a build yet I can't believe people are actually complaining about there being too many points. Also, the CYOA doesn't look over designed. It's awesome.
>>
>>46414639
Noted, I changed things.
>>
>>46414763
>I'd have made it more obvious the choice on page 1 affects stuff you get for free on page 2. I had to go back and change things.

Noted.

>>46414763
>Yes, I did realize all/most of the titles start with the same letter (sphinx snafu etc.)

That was fun but got a bit difficult in spots.

>God, it must have taken you forever to find all those pictures.

Yeah that ate up about 1/3 of the time making this. Maybe 1/2 the time. Lots of hours scouring for images and I ended up merging a few images together to get something that works or modifying images to fit a theme, like the strip club sign.

>Anastasia Davenport
Yep! Life sucks then you need a hero.
>>
>>46414824
Rule-of-thumb or whatever: Use "than" for comparisons, "then" for when one thing follows another.
>>
>>46414815
Need more info. What did it look like? Did it say Harry Potter in the title?
>>
>>46414872
Lascivious Enchancment makes harems more common
>>
>>46414705
>Perhaps I need to word it so that people don't think the whole realm has to be the different realms mixed together but that they can flow into each other instead. I'll rethink the wording on that as it is your dreamrealm so you can decide how stuff merges/works together.

If you don't mind some suggestions, I think you should make the realm flavor a "pick where YOUR kingdom is" option. Everything else exists if you travel abroad. Buying multiple makes your own realm a mashup, which is expensive mainly because it doesn't make much sense (also because it gets you perks anyway)

It doesn't make sense to gain the benefits of roman realm for instance just because it exists somewhere else in the world, when your own kingdom is in the nordic region.

But along with that cut the points down to 10, which is still pretty generous for building your character and buying general realm enhancements. Even 5 would be pretty decent, but in that case you would need to eliminate the option to spend points on Flavors entirely (pick any combination of flavors for your kingdom for free, but you only get the bonus from one of them)
>>
>>46414910
>Lots of hours scouring for images
I personally cannot be bothered with it anymore. I want to make a CYOA, not attempt to find and image that's close enough to what I want, hoping I'm using the proper search words.
>>
>>46414964

Its probably that shitty one with the memory loss condition.
>>
>>46414896
Thank You. I was thinking the golden flakes on the edges was a bit much but I was shooting for something dream like and prince like all in one go.
>>
>>46414971
Well that's what I get for reading fast.

Alright, I'm happy with my boob/snek build. Might do some more quests like the pixie, but I'm happy.
>>
>>46414705
I agree with >>46414993 's first point, but not his second. 15 is a good amount of points.
>>
>>46415011

I also think the points are fine for what that's worth.
>>
>>46415000
>I personally cannot be bothered with it anymore. I want to make a CYOA, not attempt to find and image that's close enough to what I want, hoping I'm using the proper search words.

I hear you there. Not sure I'll do that again. Took way too long and was frustrating at times. On my other 2 cyoas I had the images first or didn't care what they were to a point and that made those go far faster.

>Sorcerer Prince, I don't know what field. Protection force field bullshit or something. Or healing.

>Lanterns I guess. Maybe Lighthouses or warped world? Guess it doesn't matter if I can't die.
>Taleri

Wait shit I still have like 7 points left. I guess I'll just take 7 different flavors of magic in a variety pack or something.

If I had to recommend something It would be to toss a page of like "equipment" you could buy for various points. Some for one point, some for two. It's not that there are too many points, but there just aren't a ton of things to buy for the page-length of the CYOA. Also I don't really know why I would do quests. Do they just not happen if I don't take any? Seems like I'd just want to fuck off and explore the area or whatever.

>>46415001
Hey you're that guy who I added the footnote for. Still upset? It's not a condition lol you're just not a grown fucking man in a 10 year old wizards body.

Yeah I think it just had white background with some Dumbledore ramble up on top. I can probably look through the archives for it.

I didn't manage to spends alll my dreampoints. I think paying to have more than one waifu could be cool.

The idea of my build is basically a wuxia hero. Heir to a small Asian Kingdom, he walks the earth to better himself. He splits his time between defending the weak, slaying monsters, finding treasures and dueling other masters. Also he has a ship and visits tropical islands, eventually sailing as far as the western kingdom. Because why not.
>>
>>46414901
Cool.
I look forward to the finished project.

Needs more clarity on what taking Realms get you. For example, if I take Subterranean and Undersea, does my entire world become flooded caverns, or do I get a normal world with massive underground caverns and undersea civilizations?
>>
>>46415346
Why don't you decide that for yourself fuckboi?
>>
>>46415303
That's where magical land enhancement comes in, although generally all of it is on the lighter side unless you take too many of the darker dream options.
>>
>>46414479
Just saw this. Hehehe, too funny.
>>
>>46415277
.. are.. are you the same guy still? I mean really I honor the dedication. Most people seemed to disagree but to each their own.

I mean it's make-believe you know that right? The dream CYOA isn't actually going to take you out of your life in your dreams if you complete it.
