I disagreed, it is a good start for an amateur author.

It started off as a WN, just there for ppl to read, kinda like One Punch Man started off as a WC.

It got popular and got the $$$ eyed peeps interests.

In short, it is still amateur work, only in a more marketed medium.

I'm not making any statement on Overlord's quality, merely correcting >>139529737's incorrect interpretation of >>139529701's post.

However, if you understood this, and instead are suggesting that self-insert fiction is a good start for an amateur author, I would have to disagree with you.
>>
All this talking about self insert makes me wonder if people on /a/ are actually fine wanting to be a skeleton surrounded by god tier (literally) pussy but having absolutely no way of fucking them and feeling good about it, and having to have lived a life as basically a NEET but as a wage slave and without parents to spoil your ass. In Shadowrun.

No matter how I look at it, the novelty of being skeletor doesn't seem all that great enough to ever make me wanna self insert. Am I just too greedy? You guys laugh at the shit Ainz goes through but just actually imagine going through it yourself without the meta knowledge.

Half of /a/ would have been unable to control themselves and made an enemy of basically everyone before the first volume was over. You might get some shits and giggles when you slaughter them all but then all you're left with are a bunch of skeletons.

It was just an example. The point is everything that's a huge pro also has a reasonably huge con to it in Overlord, so unless you are incredibly easily amused that novelty runs dry in the long run real quick.

To put it into perspective, think about how slow Overlord is in story time and how fast it is in plot progression. By the time Vol 18-19 rolls around wrapping up the series it wouldn't have even been a decade. This is a series about a gamer turned skeleton conquering an entire continent. And he's gonna take presumably less than 5 years or so. In fact vol 1-9 basically happens in the span of less than 2 years, possibly even 1 year. That's half the story.

Any self insert fantasy that doesn't go into super headcanon and retcon all the cons is gonna end up wondering what the flying fuck you do in the next 100 years. Assuming some moralfag hasn't grabbed a shiny stick and killed you.

>>139532256
Yeah we know that Climb.
>>
>>139532167
Just because it's a power fantasy does not mean it can't be fun.
Technically speaking, Harry Potter reads like a self insert power fantasy.
Disney's movie Hercules is also a power fantasy.

The main enjoyment I get from Overlord is the fact that the MC is effectively swapped to the body of a North Korean dictator and he has to act the part in order to keep his subordinates happy/scared enough that they do not rebel.
All that's keeping them from going on a rampage is the NPC mental conditioning that is far from unbreakable.

That's not really accurate, he dosen't scare the NPC's at any point in the LN and he dosen't really need to make them happy (but of course he does because he sees them has his children) they're programed to be absolutely loyal to the guild members and that obviously extends to him the guild master, so they would never rebel unless something like a WCI came into play or the creator of one of the NPC's came back.
Don't really get your North Korean dictator comparison though.
>>
>>139534683
>Programmed to be absolutely loyal
Except when Sebas went against his orders.
Except when Demiurge interperted his orders the way he pleased.
Except Lupus went against his orders.
Except when Cocytus questioned his orders.
Except when Albedo went directly against his orders and tried to rape him.

Yes, they have been programmed to be loyal.
This conditioning is only as powerful as the NPCs themselves believe it to be.

He doesn't scare the Tomb residents, but he does have to put the fear in like, the lizard dudes.

True, he does not threathen them openly.
He does however perpetuate the belief that he is a true Overlord.

Ainz pretty much always leaves his orders pretty vague, you can't really blame Demi for interpreting them how he does it's just how he is from his flavor text and he believes that Ainz always knows what he's doing.
>Except Lupus went against his orders.
She didn't go against her orders per se, her orders were to protect the 3 important people in Carne and Carne, the problem is that she dosen't see the other residents of Carne has nothing more than toys so she thought he that she meant to protect Carne the village and not it's people.
>Except when Cocytus questioned his orders.
Questioning and disobeying are different things
>Except when Albedo went directly against his orders and tried to rape him.
When did he order her not to rape him?

Alot of these things can explained by the fact that the NPC's flavor text, karma and the parts of their personnality they inherited from their creators makes them act a certain way and that they express their loyalty in different ways, but if Ainz gave them a direct and clear order they would do it no matter what, they would even kill themsleves if he ordered.
>>139534989
>>139535137
Both of these are true.
He does make himself out to be and overlord, but he never harms the NPC's and the NWers pretty have to threatened, that's the only way they seem to understand shit.
>>
>>139529402
it wasn't good. having an overpowered mc only worked well with onepunch man because it had a humorous element but with overlord it was super serious shit.
>>
>>139535872
Why is having an OP MC bad in a serious work?
>>
>>139535440
>His only orders were to get info on the kingdom and the important people and organizations there, saving Tsuare dosen't go against Ainz orders.
The main point of contention was that he did not report Tsuare. Ainz had a legitimate reason to be worried because Chair was already MCed and Sebas is an excellent combatant.

That said, he was still absolutely loyal to Ainz and chose him over Tsuare when ordered to kill her.

>Ainz pretty much always leaves his orders pretty vague, you can't really blame Demi for interpreting them how he does it's just how he is from his flavor text and he believes that Ainz always knows what he's doing.
Ainz never ordered Demi not to set up the chimera farms. Like you said, he's hands-off on these matters.

>She didn't go against her orders per se, her orders were to protect the 3 important people in Carne and Carne, the problem is that she dosen't see the other residents of Carne has nothing more than toys so she thought he that she meant to protect Carne the village and not it's people.
Lupus wasn't even ordered to protect the three of them until Ainz scolded her for it. Her not reporting to Ainz is more laziness than active disobedience, she genuinely did not know why Ainz was interested in them.

>Questioning and disobeying are different things
During the first part of the Lizardman attack, he followed Ainz's instructions to the letter and got wiped out. Ainz wanted him to question his orders.

When begged for the lizardmens' lives, Ainz allowed it, on condition he kill their champions in a public execution. Which he did.

In general the NPCs are defined by loyalty to Ainz, obedience to his orders, and then their personality quirks fill any gaps.
>>
>>139535872
Nah, being over powered in and of itself is not necessarily bad for a serious story. The conflict just needs to not be related to his strength.
>>
>>139536742
>chimera farms
riiight, 'chimeras'
>>
>>139536833
Ainz is just clueless enough not to pick up on it.
>>
>>139536895
He's always had a blind spot for the NPC's, when it comes to them he dosen't really think rationally about things.

>>139554339
True, but they're absolute loyalty still lies with their creators, both Sebas and Chair admited that if they had a choice between Ainz and their respective creators they would choose their creators over Ainz.
>>
>>139553575
Hard to say, as the NPCs were programmed to be utmost loyal to the SBs, especially the one who created them. Just look at Ainz vs Shalltear fight were Shalltear mocks Ainz saying that Peroroncino is superior to him, or how Sebas thought that if he had to choose someone to obey, he would choose his creator, Touch Me. Maybe with some time the NPCs might slowly put Ainz above their creators, since he never abandoned them and is good for them, being merciful and forgiving their faults, but I think that Ainz will always be their second favorite (1st being their creator, 2nd Ainz and 3rd the other SBs). Only exception is PA and Albedo.

Be careful what you wish for. Log Horizon got a second season, and it turned into haremshit and entire episodes of minor characters giving speeches about why they like videogames.

I wonder if anyone in AOG has true Resurrection. Even with his dark ritual, I doubt he can get a max level spell on the same tier as wish with it (it would probably be super tier magic in ygg, like wish, even). Maybe Shalltear would have it, because shes a cleric. Pestonya maybe?
>>
>>139554571
2 out of how many guardians and area guardians isn't really good sample size but yeah, probably will depend on how the npc feels about their creation.

Sebas admits he'd choose Touch Me but in vol 6 he shows dissent toward him by likening his justice tendencies to be a curse. Same with Chair and her Bloodfrenzy.

It's not that black & white if you ask me. I'd place my bet on each one looking at Nazarick as a whole first and then their creator if it ever came down to the hard choice. I doubt that it will ever come to that.

You're remembering it wrong, it said she was a slut and Ainz changed that to" she loves Momonga". Plus you can't blame him, all the guild members left the guild and the game and never came back, so he could do whatever he wanted with the NPC's.

It's the author and the editor working together.
Also I only just know realized that Maruyama's editor is a chick.
>>
Would you be happy, if instead of Maruyama writing the LN, he just tells all the plot points and secrets to some other "professional writer" and he writes the novels, plus points: we get a new chapter every 3 or 4 months, Inb4 Nisio, imagine those Skelly head tilts though

>>139564544
No way. I like the way he writes.
>>
>>139529435
The pacing was complete shit. They used 13 episodes to do what a lot of shows do in 4 or 5.
The plot was amazing, as was a lot of the art.
>>
>>139547577
This delay is crazy thou, they must be having trouble getting rights for game or something.
Overlord is pretty common name and they don't want to pay fees.
>>
>>139564913
I wonder which type of game Overlord would get. Something like YGGDRASIL is impossible and I doubt they would put enough money to make something decent, so I guess it would be a cheap Dynasty Warrior clone.
>>
>>139529402

I miss it, Madhouse fucked Overlord over. They clearly didn't put as much effort into it as they did OPM.

If we ever get a season 2 I hope whatever studio does it gets a good budget. One of the only MMO themed series I like.
>>
>>139565252
They should just make that DK game the anon's suggested a couple of threads. The idea's for that game were amazing it practicaly wrote itself.

This (Copy pasted directly):

>You start out as a fresh permanent undead summon of the lowest rank, a skeleton warrior or skeleton mage depending on your choice, Ainz wants to send you and some other summons to do some quests that he doesn't think are that important.
On your quest you meet enemies that can be challenging, from monsters to adventurers, occasionally your master telepathically contacts you asking questions and giving updated orders.
>With the money you earn in quests, you can buy items and equipments from shopkeeper-sama PA, he might give you some missions since he can't really leave Nazarick.
>Through your quests you find that you can level up by finding certain magical items or [insert plot reason here].
Leveling up adds job levels and racial levels, this can move you from being a low level summon to a stronger one like the DK, veteran/elite skeleton guard, elder lich, overlord, or whatever depending on your capabilities and what you were (soldier or mage).
>You can have teammates that can also level up, but only those of around your current rank or lower, this includes non-Nazarick allies like lizardmen and goblins.

>Later on you start challenging adamantine adventurers and heroes, and by piecing together all the small information you gather from combat and quests (and lucky coincidences) , you end at either the BS with a WCI or PDA depending on the plot, at that stage you can't beat them, but Demiurge comes to the rescue.
>as expected of Ainz-sama's summon, you were able to find our main enemies! Ainz-sama must have had this planned when he summoned you!

>Admit it, it sounds good.

>>139568916
Sounds very expensive to produce..., why not a FE type where Ainz, is experimenting with creating inteligent undead and he creates you a "Undead Strategist", and comends you to lead a group of Nazarick Old Guarders and other low level undead to assault adventurers and other groups, after each battle you can use your magic to revive some of the enemies as undead but this costs exp wich you gain by killing the adventurers or others and is used to create new weapons and healiing"basically everything" unless you take the weapons from the adventurers (no shop mechanics, unless you spent your exp, into spy undead or buy Weapons when you are near Nazarick to PA for Ainz memorabilia or Demiurge for Scrolls by using human prisioners in wich case some of the villages wich you raze will yield prisioners wich you can give to him or some enemies will chose to surrender unaware of the risk, also maybe Enfirea and Liz for Potions by using money or herbs)and it depends on how efficiently you use your resources to kill your enemies, basic FE, through the campaign the undead start develping personalities (so there´s your support mechanics), also recruit other creatures, like Lizardmen, Trolls, Ogres, Orcs, wich swear fealty to AOG, That kind of game will be a lot more easy for a group of anons to make

I've got a better idea.
A CZ game where you wreck armies and use the reward money to customize her.
>>
>>139569845
But anon, your idea is using almost the same gameplay format(Basic RPG) just with a different story and some different mechanics, although I think some of it is harder to implement, it has some good aspects though.
>through the campaign the undead start developing personalities
That doesn't sound easy to do, I think, unless you mean statically having your companions move through a numbered friendliness meter, and based on that, their text changes, still sounds like a lot of hassle to do for all of the companions, I think for a game like this, you need to spend a lot of time on writing the story and dialog and picking fine lines.

When I thought of that idea, I basically wanted a basic RPG.
Undead fights
Undead does missions
Undead goes around to shop
Undead finishes mission
Undead gets reward
Undead levels up
Undead hires more preset individuals as companions
etc
I don't know why people say it's very expensive, if anything, it shouldn't be more expensive than any normal RPGMaker game, you can use So-Bin's art for the known characters, and for the undead player, it's not really hard to find art of liches and skeleton warriors.

I prefer my idea, not a matter of pride, but I prefer the simpleness, the MC being a simple foolish undead (Just like his master), and just having general Overlord antics, like the undead doing something great by pure coincidence.
>>
>>139571019
Yeah when I thought of my idea I just wanted to play an RPG, I haven´t been able to get my hands on any RPG that I enjoyed lately so I´m like under a spell.. better make one for me I guess, the personalities coul´d just be for a small number of character´s wich may make it sotry driven wich I wouldnt enjoy very much

Do you think that the level that a player posseses when he or she bears a child, will influence on said child potential say the six god's were presumably 100 level players, that's why after hundreds of years their "blood" (magical adn) hasn't deluded enough and are still producing level 30 - 50 fodder, instead of a level 20 scrub who got a child and said child can only reach mid 20s at best, Would NPCs child suffer the same rules? or would the child have it's levels fixed like the NPC
>>
Anyone else find weird how Ainz gives Aura and Mare WCIs during the Chair fight in case someone tries to MC them and then later off he takes the WCIs back from them?

You would think he would give every Floor Guardian a WCI to hold when they go outside Nazarick since he still hasn't figured out who MC'd Chair.

Highly doubt it. She might be in terms of versatility but she's got the lowest amounts of stats after Shizu (who is also the lowest level yet highest damage output).
Jack of trades builds do not excel in any particular form of combat, she might as well be considered a buffed up version of Suckulent albeit with insect magics.

Boom* Evileye confirms that polymorph exists in the NW “…Well, that’s also another method. Transformation magic can be made so that its effects are only temporary.
