>>27278437
You can have my Whispens when you pry the piece of paper that has a riddle on it from my cold dead body, then solve the riddle which leads to another riddle which leads to a safe that has another riddle taped to it which contains the six digit passcode, then take the note from that safe which has another riddle which will lead you to where I buried a box that contains another piece of paper that has another riddle on it that tells you the bank I keep my Whispens at, and then get your old team back together for one last heist and rob the bank of all its Whispens.
What quest should I play if I HATE memes?
>>27278583
A Pleeny quest or Fins quest. They are memepoor.
>>27278583
There aren't any.
You should look into alternative things to waste your time with.
Like painting, or cooking, or jumping off of bridges.

Abused becomes the abuser end.
In a alternate future Emerald grew into adulthood under Joyride’s teachings. However despite the vast knowledge he amassed Emerald never shook off the psychological scarring he experienced under his step-parents and selling his body to others only compounded his developing mental issues. So after "inheriting" Joyride’s various artifacts and her pocket dimensions. He decided to ’help’ other foals by taking them away from ’bad’ parents and erasing their memories. Before giving them to ponies who desire young colts and fillies.
It has proven to be a very successful if underground business. With the authorities never finding him due to the magic masking and moving his house. He recently acquired a new filly for his playroom named Treads who came from terrible parents. Very neglectful. Using the focus embedded in his hat he begins to erase those bad memories and replace them with much better ones. One’s of her nice and kind Uncle Lucky.
After all he’s just a nice ol’ Uncle to foals everywhere.

You know, i'm not sure how fond of Emerald you guys are here, I don't see much said about him.
I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not.

There's nothing to say, he barely even qualifies as a character.
>>27280212
He's a trap colt in a lewd quest. Dunno what you expect anyone to talk about.
>>27280212
>I don't see much said about him
He's from Colt Quest.
>>27280321
rip
>>27280212
As someone who plays CQ, Emerald is pretty much the least interesting Character in the quest.
He's got a cliche as shit backstory, he's not a strong character, and he's becoming more and more just a vehicle for lewds.
This is partially FicFic's fault, and partially his players. I'm a bit bitter because the first few scenes made CQ out to be a /ss/ quest, and since that's a kink of mine I followed it.
But now that's been abandoned and the players and QM steer away from any straight lewd and toward gay shit. Not only is that frustrating from my personal perspective, but it's also given Emerald a really dumb sort of character that seeks lewd out when it logically doesn't make sense. And then doesn't go for it when it does. I mean we wine and dined a girl, but Ficfic fucking blue balled us. That's been MONTHS ago and there's been nothing but gay shit since.
Emerald claims to not be gay, but then a few updates later is sucking zebra dick. Ficfic never even acknowledged that dialogue really.
So yeah, most of what I have to say about Em is pretty negative. He's not deep enough to discuss, and there's no memes to spam. I don't talk about it because I can't give constructive critique. I try not to comment unless I can at least do that.

Ah, so create a hero and do hero stuff with Overwatch then?
I was thinking about the game itself.
>>27280616
>Pictured: Nips
>>27280658
that was basically the idea, yes
>>27280646
Oh I gotta hear this. Tell me how the angel, the cowboy, the robot, the animu girl, the ninja, and Grim Fandango seamlessly fit together into a coherent narrative.
>>27280668
watch the 2 shorts, the 1 cinematic trailer and read the 2 comics. That is what we got from the story thus far
>>27280616
>Pictured: Shade
>>27280671
Not interested enough yet.
Is it at least more cohesive than your average fighting game """""""""""plot?"""""""""""
>>27280691
yeah. If you just want a very basic overview, the cinematic trailer suffices. They start out with a short video of what the OVERWATCH actually is

>He's got a cliche as shit backstory, he's not a strong character, and he's becoming more and more just a vehicle for lewds.
Maybe it's just me but I've been feeling like the opposite has been happening to his character.
Remember the cyoa essentially started off as a porn excuse plot.
>You must bang ponies to get da ring off before ya get caught by the bad guyz.
But since then it's turned into a more adventure based series. With Emerald struggling with the desire for revenge with the desire to have a life.
I meen we've learned quite a bit about his past and we've in turn have been building an interesting personality for him. He wants to protect and fight for the friendships he has even if they are mostly friends with benefits. He did fight a kraken to save th ship.
If Emerald was a vehicle for lewd and that's all the players wanted then Ruby would've been inducted in Joy's prostitution business as soon as possible.
If you are talking about a cyoa that has completely gone into being nothing but a vehicle for lewds look at Horse Quest.
I had a dream that nips had an Autisticlike actual autism, not 4chan meme autismbrother who did nothing but drive tiny RC cars around.
He told me that Nips was done with questing because he'd been hired to work on the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies and that he felt that the quests weren't "dante enough"
I have no idea what "dante enough" means, but that dream was depressing for two reasons. Firstly, because despite Nip's weird ass lore, I really do enjoy his quests. I'm sad that we don't get to play them as much anymore.
The second is that I'm dreaming about an internet person I've never even seen a picture of. I might be autistic.

>>27281101
anon, you have hurt my feelings, I'll tell doxelI need more to practice my anatomy consistency, yeah, but if you mean the head not being show-style, it's just that I'm screwing their eyes most of the time in that style
>>27281818
It's more of a thing with the head shape and roundness. His head looks fairly squashed and a bit too square.
>>27281877
I'll try to make them less squashed but I promise nothing
>>27281926
I don't mind either way, I'm not playing your quest.
>>27281938
I would be surprised if you do because I don't have any.

>>27280462
>>27281518
Remember that he has the red amulet that is basically controlling him and he is not entirely aware of it. Everything that happened in the quest (including the lewds) is because the players said so, which made the amulet tell Emerald to do it.Seriously, whoever suggested we should go around having sex with zebras and other males should stop.
bats
>>27282896
Nope, had this discussion already. He's not literally being controlled by the amulet. The most I could find about how the amulet was working was ambiguous. If anything it's suggestions on a subconcious level. Fic said that we'll get to know more about how it,(the amulet and any forces it is exuding) works later.
>>27282965
Why is he so cool?
>>27282951
Ah. It's funny how Joy said for Emerald to talk to her if the amulet does anything, though we've pretty much ignored that tip for a long time.
>>27282896
Are there any other red amulets in CYOAs? Curwhibbles has one to, I'm just thinking it'd be funny if somehow all of their amulets got mixed up.
>>27282991
Well it's not like it's done anything insidious...
At least not yet. I'd be very surprised if it didn't turn out that there was a demon of sorts in it.
>>27283011
>>27283000
Maybe we should keep using it to make potions until it has a reaction because it worked last time.
Your waifu is 5 ducks in a horse suit
>>27283025
That potion making thing is something I wanna ask Fic about, though I'm sure he'll give me a cryptic answer.
I'd love to try making more potions with it, it could be fun.
>>27283035
You soundquackers.
My trustyand rustybike decided to give up today and I'm pretty fucking pissed. But I said I will run tonight.
>Run Grammar?

>>27283035
But 5 ducks can't move a moon
>>27283386
That's just what the ducks want you to think
I'm becoming concerned about Curse Quest. SWC deserves a break, but he usually tells his players when he'll be back, which he didn't do this time.
>>27283291
>>27283304
So no YRWYS today. Maybe tomorrow, I will send a message.
>>27283291

Here's hoping I can finish off the thread before work.
To the anon who requested the DFQ family picture, here it is. Sorry it took so long. Meanwhile, I can confirm I'll start a new CYOA this Sunday, at the same hour I usually run (probably a bit earlier). Back to the adventure roots, I aim for a story where character interaction and decisions will shape the course of action and will make things interesting.Additionally, for Nine Lands players and readers old and new, you might be interested in this (Warning, contains spoilers for TNL at the very end): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qk_lW3QbQdodsvSstPhtlN1ksuiQ5OpR5C-Lz5RfQ98/edit?usp=sharing
If there's anything you'd like to see in the guide, or you think it's too much info for a light guide that's just for player reference, please let me know, and thanks.
>>27284112

>>27284282
the fuck are you on about?
Everyone's favourite cyoa horse is now a boss in CYOA: the video game; powered by Game Maker and coming only one month after Half Life 3!
Pick a bunch of ponies, MCs or not, from different quests and rank them between 1 and {$maxNumber}, 1 being goomba tier and {$maxNumber} being final boss. Bonus points if you come up with a fitting theme!
Here's a pool of pones to pick from, in case you have memory issues and can't think of enough ponies. Of course, you can choose a pony that doesn't appear in that list. You can also choose several ponies at once, and they'll fight together!
It's not an exhaustive list, I didn't personally play all the quests, so if I forgot your waifu please don't get offended.

>>27284321
I don't play SS, but I assume that crew would be pretty endgame tier, from how strong I've heard they are.
Gar: Joke boss.
Shade: Obnoxious boss that's all over the arena and impossible to hit
Pen: Uses a pole and a gun. Mid to late game
Willow: Fairly glass cannon, lots of combos, has an obnoxious stun move.
Steel: Tanky, chains and charge attacks
Tara: Harder version of Shade. Status up the ass and impossible to hit.
Heat: Harvest and Piryte
Piryte would be a sharpshooter while Harvest fights more up close. Has the magic bolt which stuns, then she has a knife/shotgun.
Thresh: Early game fight. Both of them have a snapdragon but nothing special.
Jolly: Impossible. Fairly slow, but hits like a truck, defies physics, and has incredible high health. Yeah, good luck.
11-54: Pepper respawns in tubes throughout the arena, so Spear is the target for the fight. Early game, their spells aren't that intimidating.
M&M: Gang fight. Each has a weapon with the special ability in quest. Midgame.
Easy: Seems like a pretty standard fire boss, and has that wrench for melee and mid range. Mid game fight.
Treads: Has a tank.
Mango: High health pool, hits semi-hard. Not too experienced, so fairly easy to overcome. Early-mid game.
Jolly's the only one I can think of that would be a fittingly difficult final boss.
>>27284518

And somehow it does make sense. Oh the irony
