>Post build or you're an faggot

Been backpacking for many months and just came back. Requesting some new waifu-cyoa!

Request no further for I have the perfect waifu CYOA for you!

In honor of the waifu meta discussions in the last threads, I present you my first (shitpost) cyoa!
It's just a joke, don't tear me apart.

Also, god damn if the fill tool in paint isn't the worst thing on the world. I initially wanted to do this in color, but with how the fill tool works I probably would have spend something like 45 minutes on it. So I hope you can forgive me for that.

Updated.

Well, nothing changed on this page though.

I wanted to have nice even lines but I went overboard. I might scrap a power, what do you guys think? Or there could be two more. I don't know why this was happening, back when I made it was easy to fill the row every update.

Changelog: The things on the end of each category that weren't there before. And maybe a few bits of text here and there that I've already forgotten.

As always, feedback and suggestions are welcome.

The black and white images are charming anyway. My favorites are the halfway point between Classic and Realistic or Classic and Grindark, so Classic wins out in the end.

Grimdark, none of these will ever create a waifu as good as my own regardless.

Classics are classics for a reason. I also need more love and cute in my life

These are beautiful! Thanks alot guys!

Demiplane is vast savanna scattered with mountains, crawling with monsters and eldritch abominations. Plane affinity so that we can train various animals as pets for hunting and guarding things. Have village of diverse and exotic amazons that have culture obsessed with hunting and slaying monsters, kind of like Norn in GW except amazons and not shapeshifters. They'd hunt giant serpents that hide under the sand, nomadic centaurs, and giant carnivorous birds that live on top of mountains. Amazons live as tribe that shares everything and are very cooperative for survival. Forging strong weapons and training hunting pets are important to them. I live in tower and am leader of the amazons because of powerful elemental magic that is strongest close to my tower and because I can turn into a dragon to fight off biggest monsters. Take form change so I can be tall, strong amazon. Occasionally travel to earth when things are calm to check how everything is back home.

The eyes one is kinda weird isn't it?

You should put version numbers. It's easier to know if you have the latest version.

Yep, it is.

It's all eternal WIPs anyway. But yeah, it's the kind of thing that I know people would like for me to do but I keep forgetting to do it.

GRIMDARK

I CARE NOT FOR THE CYOA

BUT THE VERY CUTE SPACE MARINE

Classic is the best, I didn't come here for realistic waifus, if I wanted realistic waifus I woulden't be here, I would go to Tinder. But I haven't seen a lot of grimdark waifu CYOAs, I must admit I'm very curious about the subject, could anyone post some grimdark waifu CYOAs?

I'm shocked that I find myself agreeing with tok.

this CYOA gives me an idea for a character concept:

Either a modern fantasy dude who goes around paying tributes and offerings to forgotten gods to give them love and help keep them alive.

Or a warlock in a fantasy setting who does kind of same thing, but instead of one powerful patron he has a bunch of smaller ones.

That one was definitely the most fun to do.
It's nice to see a positive (or at the very least, neutral) reaction. I originally intended to lighten up the conversation a bit (though I'm kind of late for that...), but I feared that it would potentially backfire (or just get ignored, though I guess that would be kind of alright).

Hope you have a good night, anons.

...

Good night user

>trying to make real waifus
>probabdly I'm taking it in the wrong direction

I guess all I have to hit back to the drawing board. Maybe I should change the format of the Cyoa and the pictures trying to be an author is suffering

It was a cute thing. I think the conversation will blow over anyway, but it was a nice thought too.

I've yet to create a pure Waifu CYOA, but when I include companions intended to be Waifus in my CYOAs I tend to go between classic and Realistic: They're characters, and should have a little character therefore, though you can still do that in Classic. And they're choices in a CYOA, so they should complicate or provide a potential interesting twist to the story generated from a build distinct from one another. I guess it's classic, but borrowing the "Have their own ambitions and goals" and "Has preferences that are not (you)" lines from realistic... those Ambitions, Goals, and Preferences could very well line up with (you) but it's not 100% guaranteed. I personally find it more interesting that way. Along with a 2:1 or 3:1 gender ratio (rather than all-female) for companions, all part of disguising a Waifu section in a more adventurous CYOA.

>coyag

Reminder that 3D girls are not important. I do not try to insult your efforts or anything i simply don't like 3D on CYOAs although that could be because i am a turbo autist or something

Requesting again because I got some nice stuff last thread: Post /comfy/ cyoas.

If you really want to remove a power, Eyes is pretty vague and out there especially compared to what I tried to suggest.
If you want to add more stuff, then you could probably use
>Some sort of sensory enhancement power, possibly replacing Eyes
>Skill enhancement, in the form of improved muscle memory
>Just to complete the DBZ reference, maybe a charge-up and/or battle aura technique?

>Maybe a "Hardmode" destiny - where everything's more challenging overall, but guaranteed to be 'fair' in that no challenge will be entirely impossible (and you're only slightly more likely to be killed or permanently crippled than if you didn't take the Destiny)

Okay, so seeing as the last thread was archived as soon as I posted the first page, let's try again.
This is a failed CYOA, and I'm looking for critique so I can succeed next time. Unless it's such utter trash I'm told I shouldn't.

That typo will haunt us for like 300 more posts.

...

How do you feel about comfydark?

Pic unrelated, is gold standard comfy.

>Eyes is pretty vague
How so?

>what I tried to suggest
That was vague as fuck. And considering I don't even remember it despite reading the story, obviously not that interesting.

>Skill enhancement, in the form of improved muscle memory
>Just to complete the DBZ reference, maybe a charge-up and/or battle aura technique?
>Maybe a "Hardmode" destiny - where everything's more challenging overall, but guaranteed to be 'fair' in that no challenge will be entirely impossible (and you're only slightly more likely to be killed or permanently crippled than if you didn't take the Destiny)
All of these seem really hard to word appropriately and turn into an actual option.

I'm just your friendly neighborhood succubus! I'm one of the absolute best at doing what succubi do! If you need my services, I'm very user friendly! Just summon me with a simple summoning circle and rub my ears to turn me on! You can use me any way you want as many times as you want, just make sure to finish inside at least once. It's how we succubi get our power so we can continue to provide you with excellent service! See you soon!

Should I use 2D instead? I mean, I was trying to go with the "real" thing but I'm always open for suggestion

Is this oc?

Sure is, my first attempt at authorship.

But where are the pics user?

>this CYOA
oh, god, it's so sad.

I want to do some super-hard challenge to help restore her.

OK, first notes, there are some good ideas in here. It's got a story, and sets you on an adventure that doesn't totally come off as unwinnable

IMAGES. Look, I'm actually kind of cool with Text CYOAs. I'm cool enough with them that I made one myself, but it was a one-page "powers"-type CYOA and the choices of powers rather than being cape standards were really esoteric. Your CYOA here could be graced with TONS of Cyberpunk art, and while image hunting may be a pain and rows of pictures can stretch your work you're not fighting the 10k pixel limit anywhere and a picture really is worth a thousand words. You will get more and better responses with something to look at, especially when you're working in a much-illustrated genre and include things that can easily be pictured like companions and items. If your hunting is good having some consistent style notes can even help your CYOA have a cohesive feel.

Speaking of cohesive feels, drop tech level. All it does is create more work for you in writing alternate options while denying you the ability to present a vision of the dark future world that you want to present You could probably drop "Disaster type" too, but since your main setting is the city, it's not too much to let the Player decide what the theme of the wastelands beyond the city is. The space that you save killing Tech Level and possibly the Disaster Type can be spent world building and immersing the player in the scenario they find themselves in.

Like I said, failed project, threw it together on gimp in 3 hours, thats why nothing lines up and the spacing is fucked. Next project will have pics, no lewds though (at least as far as I plan).

Thanks for the advice, next time my focus will definitely be on a rigid world with the choice coming in the elements of the adventure. Running with the Tech Level and Disaster Type was to try and differentiate it from most other cyberpunk. As I feel its begun to become a bit of a tired genre, and I much prefer the stylings of Do Androids Dream to Bladerunner so my intent was to sort of chase that original conception of the genre.

On the note of what more you can do, I'd like to be able to choose the nature of the Incident with the megacorp. Did we commit industrial espionage, accidentally learn something we shouldn't, actually try to resist... "who you were" helps this but I feel like having a stronger kickoff to the "main story", likely placed towards the late-middle of the CYOA (after world choices and your starting profession but before True Companions and Stuff You Still Have) would put a stronger emphasis on player choice. In a way, it could function as a difficulty slider: If you're getting hounded for a disastrous prank like uploading NTR Porn into an executive's powerpoint you're not facing the same resistance as if you stole some dire secret that could bring the whole system tumbling down

And while I said I might drop the Apocalypse, I might add choosing a few things about the city, maybe "What districts and/or landmarks are you familiar with?" to sort of let the player build (you)r turf within the bounds of what the setting could provide. There are a lot of cool urban environments you could make use of, and having "Choose a few to be your stomping grounds" is marginally more engaging than "Lore page map of the city"

I love the continuity, despite its bitter-sweetness.
>Maintain the Shrine, and Wrap Up the Fair
>Oversized Plushie, and Local Production
>Lonely Wanderer

Nice ideas user, I did detail an entertainment district as fluff for the choose the authority concept that I shelved, unfortunately I got carried away and wrote a short story. Also, the Incident was a plot-hook I came up with when putting it together to salvage the thing overall, the intention before that was to have the adventure vary depending on which authority you choose. Unfortunately, that was cut because Megacorps are so ubiquitous to cyberpunk and so heavily engrained within the core themes. The other concepts for authorities were a Tau / Borg style collectivist monarchist takes charges and attempts to use tech to assimilate the population into a hivemind. And a situation ala Texhnolyze regarding gangs and criminal organisations vying for control.

>Next project will have pics, no lewds though

Unlike you I'm not a rampant degenerate, because my brain is located far above my genitals.

Comfydark is absolutely nice. If you've got more, please.

Which CYOAs could be classified as comfydark, anyway? Urban Unease and The Village are obvious candidates, but what else?

(General comfy)

(Also general comfy. Waifu too in this case. I'll get to some comfydark but the line for that is always kind of subjective so I might as well dump the straight comfy first)

First Comfydark I've hit. Page 1.

2/4

Currently working on a CYOA with MOBA characters. Any MOBA is fair game. The player will be able to summon three of them to help survive on a classical CYOA hell island.

I'll be including any that catch my eye, but does anybody have suggestions? Characters they like? Obscure MOBAs they'd like represented?

Stop time for self-defense and bank robbery. Culinaromancy so that I can always eat well. I'll also run a restaurant and use it as a front for all of the money I stole. Planeswalker to escape Earth-ending events like asteroids. Immortality so the good times keep rolling. The proud personality trait makes my succubus a prideful Ojou-Sama. Playful and energetic personality traits would make her tease me a lot, which I would enjoy. She's loving and obsessive so she'll always care for me. I took white skin purely for aesthetic reasons - if I'm going to live with my succubus forever I want to like her appearance. Other skin colors would have given me more points, but they're not worth it. Google what blue or pink skin looks like on a person. It's just awful.

3/4

I don't know, the tone of this feels more "Comfydark" than straight "Waifu"

4/4

Maybe I'm stretching

The Afterlife Roommate series is good, but this is the most comfy of the lot.

I seem to heavily favor Waifus+Tone for deciding comfy.

I forgot how much I liked this author's CYOAs. I hope he makes something again sometime, this and Something Different were really neat.

This one's comfy is more what you make of it (1/2)

2/2

Thanks, my dudes.

I think I posted this one last thread but it deserves more attention.

Looks like I didn't save any of the comfy+despair CYOAs like the dying kitsune, What Little Time, or the hospital gifts. Ah, well, they're only questionably comfy. Still, kinda wish I had them, might delve the mega later.

The collaboratively created comfydark standard.

I KNOW I posted this last thread, but again, worth it.

The others by this author are all more adventure, more dark, or both, but I'm pretty sure this one qualifies as comfydark. If you want the others, I'll post 'em, otherwise this will be the end here.

>lamenters waifu
Haha, time for suffering!

2/3

here's the kitsune one

3/3 Bicycle for pure comfymode.

PPP+ coming when?

This is better than AliceAnon's waifu, though less detailed. Fewer apparent flaws at least.

>Lamenters
Your chances of survival have decreased sharply.

Never ever.

I want to say yes but it might be not the most adequate CYOA for that.

It might be easier. Reasonably realistic descriptions are more important than the pics for your theme imo, but I honestly don't mind either.

>How so?
Like, can you just grow two eyes per day (or more, with regeneration/time magic) and see out of all of them at once? That seems like it could get broken with creative use.

>That was vague as fuck
It was vague as fuck in the manga, too. The best explanation I can think of is that the 'perfected version' just sort of makes you aware of everything in a rough area around you with no need for sensory organs or line of sight. Obviously a purchasable version would need to be scaled down somehow (either in range, granularity, or variety of things sensed), but it'd still be pretty useful.
The attached image is from Kumo Desu Ga Nani Ka chapter 19.2

>seem really hard to word appropriately
I guess you'd have a better feel of that than I would. If you want help, the easiest way is probably to ask in the Discord.

>That seems like it could get broken with creative use.
It's supposed to be. They're all supposed to be.

>would need to be scaled down somehow
Not necessarily. Being powerful isn't a problem. That can be addressed with point cost.

>ask in the Discord.
No thanks, I'm quite happy being anonymous. Discord circlejerkers can finish becoming detached from the site and fuck right off.

Aafiya & I are going to make a go of it. I'll sell Yun-Seo

>Google what blue or pink skin looks like on a person. It's just awful.

Pic #1 and pic #5 are awful. Pic #2, #3, and #4 aren't bad because the blue and pink are very light. The attractiveness of the skin tone is directly proportional to how dark the shade of blue/pink are. The less blue/pink there is, the better it looks.

considering you're the authority on beauty in strangely-colored skintones, i guess you're entirely correct

>It's all eternal WIPs anyway. But yeah, it's the kind of thing that I know people would like for me to do but I keep forgetting to do it.

You don't need to do a version number if you don't want. Just the date and time would work -- anything that would make it easy to quickly tell if two pictures are the same and if not which is newer.

If you choose Alemany, do you have to pick Skip Birth to fight in the war or will you be inserted far enough in the past to be an adult / regain memories by the time the war starts?

That's just my personal taste. Everybody has different tastes. If you like blue then more to you.

>Just the date and time would work
That also has the problem that I'll forget, and also is slightly more tedious.

Source material has the MC as a child soldier. You'll regain your memory before you're directly involved in the war, though.

>cuddle got updated

Fuck yeah.
>Midnight
>Rain
>Victorian/Rustic
>Fireplace, couch, Other (decent sized table for the couch to encircle)
>Real people companions (I'm going somewhere with this)
>Hot Drinks, Board Games, baked goods, pillows and blankets

Welcome to my ultimate gaming room! Beautiful atmosphere, soft furnishings and beddings, food and drinks, it's glorious!

What is source material?

For that one, Youjo Senki. Mostly. /pol/ memery fits too.

I already do my best to keep the shrine maintained for my goddess and volunteer with the fair.

I also have a bit of a strategy in mind.

>Hold Back Winter's Chill, Christmas Charity
Acts of charity in the name of a goddess to impress upon less fortunate children her grace and mercy, material gifts of scarves and blankets, physical reminders of her love.

>Naming Rights, Local Production
Children carrying her name will help continue her legacy as time goes on, and the local production, small as the role is, helps immortalize her in song and script.

>Lonely Wanderer
Even my greatest reward from her is to continue serving, to find her goddaughter and bring her back

And hopefully, with these things we can spark just a little more faith and life in the harvest goddess... Just a little bit more so we can share one more harvest together.

...

Maybe a bit more on the comfy side than the dark but still pretty good.
