Accepting banners for the board

 

Rules

  1. Make a thread for any specific CYOA or a themed thread if you're going to dump several.

  2. NSFW cyoas should be noted as such or be self-evident from it's title. But don't necessarily have to be spoilered if the thumbnail doesn't show anything.

  3. Other NSFW content should be spoilered though.

  4. No spamming, flooding, or flaming. i.e. Don't be a nuisance

  5. Shitposting :^) is fine within reason.

 

You can roll dice under the post options; # of dice, # of sides it has, and modifiers. When rolling multiple dice, it'll list individual dice and a sum at the end.

Alternatively, use an RNG such as https://random.org/

I wonder if /cyoag/ is aware that this board exists? Some content gets created here but it's mostly posting the good OC that gets created elsewhere.

 

That being said, 4/d/ recently banned lewd cyoas off their board and I saw one poster post a creation over on reddit, so people do get around.

 

/cyoag/ create something -User takes and posts it on r/makeyourchoice or r/nsfwcyoa -> I check it against the archives and see if it's new and the post it here.

Also glad Jumpchains arn't a thing here.

It's neat, that deities friend on faith reminds me a bit of touhou . I'd add more, rewrite some, and reorganize the sections to get the more central stuff first, but it can be interesting.

 

The goal part should be rewritten and clarified because I'm not sure if the goal is for yourself or your people. For example does " to create a fascinating story for your people?" mean to make a mythos for the people to read/learn or for you to live alongside them and influence their history?

I'd change the culture section into "what does your faith value?" It's specific towards what you represent and what the basis for the people is. To parallel the choices already written there: power, social justice (fitting for that meekness cult description), knowledge, growth; then adding some other more like art/beauty, hedonism, community, goodness, etc. and an open option for anything the reader may prefer. They may choose several values and put them in a hierarchy if they like. Alternatively, polytheism/"full-roster" could associate a value with each image of you. Antagonist would have the opposing value, obviously.

Reorganize some other stuff into separate religious and cultural practices categories. It'd be neat to include stuff like "certain object/animal is holy", "inbreeding", "eugenics", "certain trait is good/evil", "blasphemers are treated as suchโ€ฆ" etc.

excellent ideas

sounds like you are better at this than me (to be expected im a beginner)

i'll leave out eugenics since all ideologies influence this only varying on which attributes they want to encourage.

affinities options are pretty good, canines are holy, felines are holy, avians, eldritch/demons etc

 

blasphemers are punished by:

exile - they can be heretical elsewhere

suffering - the pain in non-equal measure will act as a deterrent

reformation - the offending individual will be given trials and challenge, they will either die to them in honourable contest or survive and grow to be better

sacrifice - the offender is killed, their influence removed and their name erased from all record, they will cease to exist to us (this one runs the risk of martyr cults of the forbidden knowledge cropping up, especially if you have an antagonist, perhaps this one gets you a couple of additional points to spend elsewhere).

 

i meant to create an entertaining history for your people/the world but that choice can be decided by the reader since they are just suggestions.

 

you are right the culture should just become which cultural traits you will encourage (what your religion represents)

as for the other traits. those are good suggestions, things like tradition or innovation, hedonism/excess/pleasure or virtue/stoicism/deferring gratification, perhaps an individualism or collectivism. thats one of the categories that can afford to have many options within symmetry since its the most important one, perhaps you can select multiple options via the points system.

 

thanks greatly for the ideas, im glad i didnt spend ages making an image since it has a lot more work that can be done on it.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but I'm having trouble finding a specific CYOA. I can remember it being a rebirth/new life CYOA, and that it had options like choosing your house size (ex. estate), and depending on that, you could choose maids and butlers and rooms and stuff as well as traits you wanted (catboy, trap, etc) and siblings. If anyone might know what I'm talking about, I'd be really thankful if you'd post the images here.

Another thing is shitty twine patreon projects are getting posted to r/nsfwcyoa after they were allowed for some reason. Once one was posted more followed. Just want to reiterate that if any cyoa gets posted here, it's the classic picture version or hell, .pdfs of old book adventures that got scanned (might make a thread asking for some like those, they were fun back in the day).

Why does everybody include images in CYOAs? Wouldn't it be simpler to just use text alone? It seems a little ridiculous that a CYOA should take up multiple megabytes of space when it could be so much smaller.

Visualization mostly. Looking at a decent picture that matches the text helps visualize what you choice is. Take these two for example. First one has you building a body with with Aphrodite. Say I'm male, with muscles and magic. Without decent pictures, it's just text.

Now with this page from Divine Trials, you get see what sort of character I am.

Male, Muscular, Tall, Normal Dick, DFC, Claws (Poisoned), Scales, Wings. By looking at the pictures, you can see I'm a human with dragon features and you have a rough image as to what I look like.

It's kind of like advertising at a supermarket, a good picture makes me want to pick it while the text contains all I need to know about it.

 

That being said there are .pdfs with only texts floating out there and they're simpler to do but I don't think they're as good as a cyoa that has pretty pictures, like Star Dust or Branching Heart.

My collection only takes up 2.5 gig from 650 images, it's worthwhile.

I just really don't think that it's even remotely necessary.

 

Also, even when people make text-only CYOAs, they're dumb enough to use antialiased text, so the image size STILL is ridiculously huge! Take pic related an example.

 

Don't people realize that CLEAR text is better than BLURRY text? It's just utterly baffling to me.

You know as I was searching for places with CYOAs, I recognized how lonely the "popular sphere" was.

There's some thousands of different forums just scattered and lying around, but all we talk about is mainly Tumblr/Reddit, then sometimes SA or something of the type, and then anons occasionally make potshots at facebook and twitter. There's barely any way to find out actual different communities out there besides what we already know, using a search engine doesn't really help (unless there's a trick to it?). I find it funny that anons bragged about how they "Know forums that actually discuss video games"โ€“ It is a miracle they have been found.

 

I suppose I should make this somehow related to /cyoa/ so have a link to those forums I miraculously found.

Everything uses anti-aliased text on a computer unless its a command console. And of course it's going to be noticeable when you zoom in 500%+.

The editor for that image made the text slightly colored for the box, so what it needs it contrast between the text and the background makes it more readable. And it's perfectly readable enough already.

Font thickness and size would be more what you are describing.

 

What I take issue with that cyoa is that the image is too wide for my screen. So I either have to zoom in and scroll side to side, or have it fit to screen width and get blurry text.

>Everything uses anti-aliased text on a computer unless its a command console.

GIMP allows you to disable text antialiasing when you're making a CYOA (pic related), and Windows allows you to disable antialiasing (called ""text smoothing"") in the settings (pic related).

>And of course it's going to be noticeable when you zoom in 500%+.

It's noticeable even when it isn't zoomed in. I cringe whenever I see text that's been made blurry for no discernible reason.

Fuck no. What you are basically saying is "I don't like [content], only make threads for what I like" If the board were more active (talking /v/ levels) it might make sense to split the ENTIRE board up by category, leaving only the exceptionally popular and/or large CYOAs to their own thread, but shoving off a specific type isn't a good idea.

Hi, I'm the guy who posts a lot of the cyoas here as I enjoy them. As to your question, let's run through some practicals. Say I have a 20 page lewd cyoa like Divine Trials, if I were to post that in a lewd general thread it would take up 4 posts and get in the way of people posting their builds to other cyoas. It'd be like /cyoag/ on cuckchan and that does look like a mess sometimes. Not to mention when it gets updated and I have to repost the new version and people would have to scroll to that. You can also look at the links to the forum posts that an anon linked and how much of a mess that is, requiring a damn index page to find anything.

The model this board uses, which every significant cyoa gets their own thread makes it so much easier for me to post updated stuff, contain all the builds to one thread and allows you to see how other people have responded to it. It's kind of the same thing they use on reddit but our stuff is preserved here on the site and not on imgur and lost in an archive somewhere.

 

There are currently two generals already, one for waifus and lewd. I don't mind if people repost stuff there as it saves you looking through the catalog to find a specific one but those generals greatest ability is to host single page cyoas. Stuff like an elf slave one I think requires it's own thread for the multitude of builds you could create from it but a simple single page waifu one that doesn't deserve it's own thread can be posted there.

 

Honestly I don't think there is any need to change anything as I like this system and it works fairly well. You just need to keep an eye out for people trying to push politics and that mentally Ill tranny voxxe from shitting up threads with his advertising.

Hello, /cyoa/. I have been on this board for quite some time, and have, in my morning(I am no American, and our timezones differ), started my very own, very lewd CYOA. The thing is, it's dark, very dark, and I have searched and not found for what is and isn't allowed in terms of real pics.

 

Said CYOA will be very large and extensive, though a bit ugly, probably (my first CYOA, btw), and I plan on using 3D pics as much as possible (though if you people wants me to I could make it with animu-style pics, no difference to me).

 

There is quite a little of every physically possible fetish you can image, everything short of Guro (which I find very disturbing). However, it does involve bestiality, and possibly scat/watersports, if it is allowed, and I have no idea if you guys are as tolerant as some other board concerning 3D pics of such matters. I would just replace these specific one with Japanese drawings.

 

I'm telling you, it will be huge, choke-full of illustrated options, but quite simplistic in its "system".

BO can we get a rule against .pdf cyoas? They're not cyoas and not defining a cyoa as an image with text to choose from leaves the door open to stuff that isn't really cyoa getting posted. God help me if someone posts an html that's "cyoa" but isn't.

Text CYOAs are allowed. It makes little difference if a description is accompanied with a picture or not.

Treat it like any other cyoa that doesn't appeal to you: ignore it or call it ">wall of text" and move on. Don't shit it up the thread. There are plenty of image cyoas that have little replies and text cyoas could've ended up similarly if anons didn't reply to it.

It's not just the text CYOAs. There seems to be a dedicated band of shitposters dumping on anything that isn't a blatent power fantasy. Even the slightest hint of "submissiveness" or someone else having authority over you attracts similar bullshit.

 

CYOAs have always had a guiding wisdom: if you don't like it, create your own. Honestly I don't think we have ANY content creators of our own here, so anyone complaining about reddit or halfchan content is doubly retarded. Just play the fucking games or shut the fuck up and get out, should be rule one here.

Megaten is fucking amazing, theres so much shit for you to do.

 

I'm getting all goose-pimply thinking of all the ways you can make it.

 

As for the origin part: every character starts off as human, instead make it more of a transformation moment.

 

There are 5 flavors for a megaten protag, COMP user, Avatar tuner, Demidemon, persona user and Demonica user.

 

As for the items, I would recommend allowing the player to make their own builds for example, a phys character vs a magic one vs a summoning one.

 

I don't think there should be an items tab, instead just more demons/ persona party characters.

 

If you don't want to expand on it, could you tell me what software you used to create that CYOA so I could continue your work?

I like to think it's a small collection of braindead people bumping bad threads because that's to their taste. We must all do our best, I suppose, to bump threads we like. But then there's the issue of a lack of new content. It seems like if no one makes new threads the pornographic CYOAs get bumped with alarming frequency. Perhaps being bored makes people gravitate towards pornography, I hear that meme repeated often.

A thread is bumped when someone wants to say something on the subject (inb4 "People die when they are killed")

Perhaps those who make lewd builds are higher in numbers, or they tend to make more builds, or those who make non-lewd builds are easily bored with the conceptโ€ฆ Or maybe not everyone are in this black-and-white dichotomy, and many of those "in between" have no problem with lewd CYOAs. I mean, it's the Internet โ€“ what's the chance that most people here are fervently celibate?

If you think it's a problem, feel free to make new non-lewd builds regularly. Or even new content โ€“ after all, the images in any CYOA are all taken from the web, and there seem to be tools and templates for easy CYOA creation as well. Just pick an idea and make it as non-lewd as you likeโ€ฆ

Use a more clear font without any frills for the blocks of texts and fix that background image so it's not so hideously stretched. You could also consider a field (maybe a transparent layer) to separate the options from the background image so they are just floating on the background. The color scheme and the images on the choices seem good and consistent in style, but make sure nothing gets stretched as that gives off the air of complete half-assery.

Why do you think those numbers are significant? For what reason would higher numbers be preferable to lower ones? To satisfy your lust for content, perhaps, but do you think more posts is more content? I'd say certainly not and were you to think so then you'd be a fool.

I really don't get you. Do you really think this board would be better if it had people posting "I like this" or "I hate this" several times a minute? The only thing that can be done to "improve" the board is more content. More content requires not spectator numbers but the forbidden meme phrase: "content creators". I have no idea how you can turn spectators into authors, nor lure authors here, but that is what would be necessary to increase board quality and thereby increase post frequency and subsequently the feeling that other human beings are socializing with you (which I believe is what you crave so desperately).

Are you? A sea of old posts and garbage isn't anything anyone cares about. There's a reason "thread necromancy" used to be something people were lynched over. If you're so desperate for posts or posters then spam or bot. Problem solved, from your point of view. Continuous content of quality is the lifeblood of a board, not more idiots saying nothing interesting about things everyone (but them, apparently) is already well aware of.

You're right. Some things are only weeks old. Posters are only the problem if you mean "people posting new shit" which you don't. You mean "people saying "I LOVE PORN, GIVE ME PORN" or people saying "I don't like it, not one bit!" Obviously we need hundreds more of those. That will really increase quality. Grow some brain. There can't be positive activity if everyone has already seen everything. There can be un-entertaining shit-slinging festivals, but that's pretty much it. I suppose you find reading builds for CYOAs you've read thrice entertaining somehow but that puts you in the minority.

Something tells me that the lack (or low amount) of new content might be caused by a) it being hard to make โ€“ as it requires effort and time, b) it requiring creativity and imagination to produce, and quite possibly c) people who feel there's not enough content choosing to complain about it as opposed to trying to do anything about it.

Not the anon you are replying to, but there is also d) - besides this board, there are no good CYOA communities, only shit like reddit and cuckchan. And, as the activity of this board is low and consists mostly of "consumers" or people who post non-OC CYOA, content-makers have nowhere to ask for good advice about nuances not covered by the old guides.

But I guess this could be fixed if the board got a DIY OC CYOA general thread. I'd make one myself, but I am bad at making new threads

oh, huh. Wasn't aware there was another cyoa group over here. Neat!

 

Anyway, I'm working on this thing but not satisfied with my magic categories.

 

Geomancy CYOA has you turned into a Geomancer by the newly awakened spirit of the earth. Different magic is associated with different terrains (all images are real photos of earth), and you select four of them. Additionally, you have a team with two other people, and can influence their selections as well.

 

If I have the drive, there may be a "competition" aspect to it as well, where you are competing against other realities. Only in a narrative sense, though (no stats).

 

What I'd love input on is the rough magic categorization I have here so far. Are there things that don't fit well? Are there ones that seem too weak/too strong? Are there major "types" of magic that I am missing?

Necromancy in desert seems odd. Even though deserts are pretty dead, there's not much death in there. Though, this depends on what kind of necromancy it is. If it's the actual kind, i.e talking to spirits of the dead, I guess that could be explained by the spirits congregating in such places. In any case, necromancy is usually associated with dead humans, so I would give it a man-made environment (for an additional bonus it would be an unnatural place for a potentially unnatural type of magic). Maybe a lost desert city like Iram, though finding a fitting picture would probably be hard. Or you could replace the necromancy with something associated with spirits in general as the jump from a desert to things like the djinn comes easy.

 

Team work and coordination in a coral reef seems decently clever, and I could see the reasoning for rest of the environment/magic connections.
