So, on which CYOAs is Veeky Forums currently working on?

Fetishy Lovecraftian parent of monsters thing.

>With 12 hours of prep time, can disguise as other body types.
robopussy gonna get fucked proper

Fetish bullshit CYOA where you get more points the more you let a fetish thing affect you.

Take it back to the old thread, faggot. Arguments die with the thread they killed.

I've thought about making something like that. Give you superpowers based on your kinks, but strong powers require you to indulge far more frequently. So voyeurism might power invisibility or incorporeality depending on whether you spy on people changing or fucking occasionally or feel compelled to peep every night.

I'm none of those arguing people, and I've actually been (slowly) working on this for a few months. The whole thing is based on an idea I had back in March on how to tackle the whole "fetish stuff gives points" thing.

Might need some more ideas for stuff to spend the points on, but I'll tackle that later.

>taller. Or have wider hips...
Yeah she better have a self-regenerating internal lube cache.

Carry on, soldier.

>violating your daughteru
For shame, /cyoag/, for shame.

Your mistake is assuming /cyoag/ has any shred of dignity and self-esteem to feel shame.

Oh wow, I haven't seen this one in forever.

Anyway, Ferrean, you still lurking around here? Got an ETA on your updated half-dragon CYOA?

>implying she's my daughter

She's a fucking robot, she's my robot waifu. Like hell i feel like she's my sibling.

Lots of rolling metacyoa

...

dice+2d6

You take that back! She's my father's daughteru, and not by my mother.

>Anatomically Correct

What does it mean by assisting in hospitals, and what does having both mean?

Clearly it's intended as a dispensary system for the Med-Gel. Both sets means she has two different applicators - one for surface use, and one for injections.

Potion cyoa. Drink the potions, get the powers. You can only drink so many, and there are drawbacks to them as well. I'm also thinking of giving it several modifiers and drawbacks to enhance the experience.

If you guys want to see a WIP, it's only words at this moment, but I can still show it to you.

I think the intent was that they could serve as live models for gynecology.

>If you guys want to see a WIP

Yes please

Here you go. Maybe I should have clarified it's only a pdf right now, but I did say it's only words.

Thoughts?

reposting from old thread because I like comfy CYOAS

Where are the one page cyoas like masquerade, soda parlor or the one with god beasts hiding? They're my favorites

...

That makes sense.

That doesn't make sense. Terrible post. Why are you here?

Can't violate the willing

bless you user

And for something similar to the god beasts one.

Include something about Mask fetishism

thanks a lot, this one's pretty cool

also, contribuiting

I've always changed which of these I'd take over the years.

The Long Man was my first choice. Independent, no responsibility, the power to charm, run, and hunt. Total freedom.

Amlia was my second choice. The power of good. The power to heal and pocket dimensions are a favorite of mine. Walk the world, heal those in need, make the world a better place one person at a time.

But as my days get darker and my mental state isn't so balanced, I see the appeal of Lokt. Another form of freedom. The freedom to use and abuse. No feelings except my own. Although...I don't think I could actually bring myself to act that way.

Today, we'll stick with the Long Man

Why would anyone not choose to become a God of their own universe? It's like taking the good aspects of everything else and putting them into one

Which one are you working on?

...

...

I'm not the one who made it, but to be honest, I can never settle in one afterlife. I think while god is able to encompass everything, it was designed for the makers. Part of playing is interpreting and getting these things (but it is a poorly thought CYOA, I'll be honest)
For me, I'd take either Empty World, Relife, Dreamworld or Heaven

Ur, obviously. The only acceptable option here is the triumph of Civilization, Law, and Justice, free from the petty self-serving schemes of the less righteous and empowered by discipline over those unconcerned with order.

She's my father's daughteru, which would make her my non-blood-related little sister. And you know what that means.

You could create your own Dreamworld and your own Heaven if you became a God. Just saying

Optus. The restrictions on altruism are a little frustrating, but should be easy enough to work around via rational self-interest - after all, is it really altruistic if I pay people twice the market rate for wages, or is it just a good way to ensure employee loyalty and diligence?

and I could relife as many times as I wanted in a separate earth from my dreamworld or heaven while at it, while managing to pass by an empty world in time for dinner.

It's a retarded choice, that's why I ignore loopholes when the CYOA is poorly done, it allows for a nice game even in bad scenarios

"Most Wanted", I posted the first page a few threads back.

Leading a gang of escaped prisoners in space. Focus on building a crew so there's 65 companions written.

Pokemon finally came out in the UK today though, so on hold for a little while.

Trying to finish this project off. So I can work on other cyoas and expansions.

But you'd be relying on your conscious mind to do so, rather than some grand universal architect who's capable of seeing your dreams and desires and creating a realm customized to you.

It's like the difference between going to eat at a five star restaurant, and being given access to a five star kitchen and being told "go to town."

Yup. Sucks you have to ignore options to balance the cyoa.

I have no gods, for none shall have me as their own. Let them Mark me as they will, and sneer in disgust - I have no place in their world, and they no place in my heart.

There is no sanctum for the damned.

>tfw not sure whether to pick Nothing, Heaven, or Ghost

...

user, that's kind of the point.

Back in middle school, all I was missing was the trilby. You think there's any forgiveness for that? Any coming back from there? No.

I made my bed and now I'm lying in it.

Optus is my choice.

While Lokt might give me more power, with the disciples of Ur, Amlia, and Ersu running around, I figured it's best to stay out of their way and just pursue money. Of course, there are ways to rule without an empire.

My big plan is to try and ally myself with Ur disciples and do business with Lokt's followers. Both have powers that can create empires and both could probably use funding, which I am more than willing to provide in the form of loans and bonds. In addition, I shall provide this world with various products and luxuries (with the awakening of these disciples, something's gonna go down.)

As for the other disciples, Lux's are the only ones I will interact with on a regular basis. I could use their skills to give me and my companies a technological and even pharmaceutical edge. Quet's will die as soon as I meet them, on account of them wanting to kill me. Everyone else can just go on with their lives.

In the end, I might not have an empire. But I'll have something close to it.

The correct answer is Xm. Easy murder, teleportation, and future sight? Sure you get nightmares and the teleportation sucks to do but still, no tenets to follow.

>I choose nothing xD
Is this fun to you, fedora?

No. This is what actually happens where the idea that any of them would willingly take me on knowing my history is dumb.

user, assuming you're serious, then know this: there is always forgiveness. Just ask Saint Paul. Knock, and the door shall be opened.

I mean, he's not choosing nothing. He's choosing perpetual reincarnation and immunity to assholes with superpowers. That's a viable choice.

Drawbacks feel so strong they aren't really worth it. I don't know if I'd bother taking anything as written.

I'm also more about the wish fulfilment aspect of CYOA though so obviously I'm not the entire marketplace of people who would be interested

...

>Drawbacks feel so strong they aren't really worth it.
>There are only three drawbacks

Alright, which one feels too strong and why?

Alast.

Summers looks like he needs a friend, but Jane'll probably be a more efficient tutor. On the other hand, Iron is a pretty cool guy and isn't afraid of anything.

All of them feel strong
>Be Veeky Forums but need 4 hours extra sleep
Even for someone like me who needs 6 hours 10 will become a huge investment. I like having a life in addition to work and studying

>Feel energized but never feel rested or still
Having ADHD for free just to feel more energetic sounds really annoying. Not to mention it will probably be grating on people around you imo to have the Energizer Bunny pacing up and down around them

>Painless
Downright dangerous, if not fatal in very short order. And that's just because pain is such a human need; losing it will cause the loss of a vital sense. I'm sure maybe you'd keep it for a loved one with cancer but that person would be on eggshells forever after.

Here's my knights of the circumcision build. Atlas and Harley. I take my chopper and a map and I have a road trip.

For starters it's a pdf but you'll fix that before finishing it.
I like all options have a drawback so you have to decide if you really want it or not. It's also good for if you want more than three. You can judge which three you want based both on their effect and their drawback.
But I agree with user, would you consider maybe tone down the drawbacks?
What happens if two potions have opposite effects? Invigoration means you don't need sleep, Enhanced body means you need more sleep.
Can't really comment on more.

Ura. There's no point in not taking every advantage I can, not when the cost of failure is so high. If that means not being able to explain how I'm getting power, then it'll be our little secret why humanity is surviving.

Choosing Ersu, I'd be glad to be part of your spy rings

do you have an aproximate date to finish? :3

Disciples are best working together. Amlia to feed the hungry and heal the sick; Esau to find the wicked and desperate and deliver justice and mercy to them, respectively; Lux to make the discoveries needed to create a better world and teach the next generation; Optus to create raw materials and bankroll the project. Even disciples of XM and the Long Man can be useful.

Remove Lokt and Quet.

Fetishes and their effects and modifiers are pretty much done. Plus I'm not sure how that'd work.

Sounds cool. I'd be up for taking stuff that isn't my fetish if they gave me powers. Do each fetish have multiple tier?

Kallista, sweetie? Can you copy all the hard drives from the lab onto your internal and wipe the lab's network? Full boot-and-nuke with a Puppy Linux reinstall, please, then commence a viral hack and punch holes in the file structures. Then go upstairs and put on some loose jeans and a parka, and hide your tails and ears in it. Pack a small overnight bag with some clothes, then slip into the crawlspace. The hidden one I used to use to sneak out to the garage at night. Be sure to replace the fiberglass insulation behind you. I'll let you know when it's safe to come out by posting in a Shadowrun thread on Veeky Forums.

Yes, officers, can I help you? My father? Sure, hold on a sec.
>Hand the officers the ash-filled urn from the mantle
Sorry, he hasn't been very talkative lately. Anything else I can do for you? A warant to search the house? Sure, go ahead. Be careful in the server room downstairs. I just got my Minecraft server set how I like it. And try not to track mud into the spare bedroom upstairs, please? My girlfriend's daughter stays there when I babysit her and she gets really fussy if it's too messy. Anything else? What? Cyber-terrorism? Hiding here? Am I being punked? Sounds more like some kid on the internet is trolling you guys. My dad has been dead for five years. Want me to call the coroner and have him dig out the autopsy reports? You've ransacked my house and interupted my breakfast. I'm going back to it before it gets too cold. Please close the doors on your way out when you're done, and expect a formal complaint about this severe lack of fact-checking in your investigation. Good day.

>Waits until they leave with all the scrambled lab computers. Pulls out phone and posts to the Shadowrun General. "Hoi, chummer. Lonestar's law-dogs just stole most of my decks, but they're gone now."
Looks like we've got a mystery to solve.

Haven't decided how to handle it, but probably. I'd need to think of which fetishes will be options, and what each should do; I might just pick stock superpowers and decide what fetish you'd need to use them.

Likeable and lovely dreams. I just want people to like me and have nice dreams.

Maybe Thursday.

I need this.

Damn. I was thinking something with disguise but not really sure how useful that'd be. Downside would obviously be you would have to wear progressively more outlandish/bulky and covering masks. But yeah, thought you wanted more ideas, sorry.

You're the one restarting an argument.

>tfw SAD still hasn't finished the dark souls cyoa so I can ignore everything about it and choose to sit with the cute girl by the bonfire
I hope it'll be a bit more creative than stock superpowers. Some powers could help you accomplish your fetish (like a fetish for hypnotism needs a hypnotism power so you can do it) and others might just mesh well together (a fetish for protective musclegirls might give you a power to appear cute or instill the need to protect you?)

I never understood why this girl is cooking her foot to be honest.

>female
>knight

Pick one.

>But yeah, thought you wanted more ideas, sorry.
That was mostly for the stuff that you buy with the points, and I'll be asking for those later if I feel like I need more.

As for disguises and costumes and such, well, there's tiered rewards (the more you pay, the better/more versatile they are) for clothing and makeup that you might like (highest tiers of them have high-quality custom clothing, including costumes and the like, and the sort of makeup stuff that's used for special effects in films and such, respectively).

>But I agree with user, would you consider maybe tone down the drawbacks?
I'll look into that, but I didn't notice the drawbacks were that bad until it was pointed out. As a side note, the major potions shall have major drawbacks for major power. Just throwing that out there.

>What happens if two potions have opposite effects?
There is a slight cancellation of drawbacks there. In the example you provided, invigoration gets rid of the need for all but 2 to 4 hours of sleep a night.

I'll work on it, but I'm starting to think my idea of a balanced drawback does not match up with other's idea.

Does this sucker really let me be a little girl with a big penis and an airhead friend who helps "milk" me?

Tell me more

>Optus to create raw materials and bankroll the project
This new civilization you are talking about will owe a certain debt(to be disclosed at a later date) to it's greatest ally who offered such a generous helping hand in a time of need, but i am sure there is nothing to worry about, such a minor obligation is nothing compared to all the good that such a project will bring.

Optus here. I'm willing to lend a hand in building this new world (for a price, of course.)

I'll also need a disciple of Ur and Lux to help me study the properties of the light Ur's disciples make. I want to see if I can transmute it.

Oooohhh, sounds pretty good. I eagerly await the release.

Long Man here

Please take your new society to a different planet so I can have a nice After Earth time and chill with the hippies who stay behind

>Please take your new society to a different planet

Yo Long Man, Xm here. Wanna team up to kick these corrupt businessmen and leaders off our planet?

Basically, you get points for taking on fetish effects. The more present/inconvenient/frequent the effect, the more points you get. Oh, and you also get to redesign your body as per usual, and get points from that, too. Not sure how much in comparison to what you get from the fetish effects.

As for what you'd spend the points on, there's various options that presumably increase your comfort and/or safety, plus ones that reduce inconvenience. Ones that are aimed at specific fetish effects (regardless of whether they'd make said effect less convenient or just potentially more fun/versatile) are of the more expensive variety (to the point where you'd need more points than a single fetish effect can provide to get the best reward for it).

Here's the post with the original idea, to give you some grasp as to what sort of variance there might be for the fetish effects (won't be exactly as listed, but something along those lines, depending on effect):
archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/47131403/#47135342

We'll just come back.

I started a text-only mind control CYOA, but writing is haaaard.

>You could make the stuff that cost points be stuff that'd make life easier/more convenient than it realistically would be for someone with a relevant fetish
That sounds amazing user. It sounds really good. I wish I could say more. It sounds like you can turn your fetish into something that would actually work in reality, and not just in porn.
You should probably add stuff that aren't related to fetishes but still make life better.
Let the boner in your pants guide you. Also add pictures.

I still want to know what cyoas exist where I can get a glowing aura.

Interesting. Have you decided what fetishes to include yet?

Can I trust you? It'd be a shame to create a natural paradise and restore a semblance of balance to the world, only for your Patron to fucking eat it.
