Are we going to do a "best cyoa of 2017" this year? If so I nominate Waifu Hatred and Loli Abduction for first place in "Comedy/Most fun to read".

Any cyoa with even a tinge of romance in it is 99% likely to be garbage. /tg/ has fucked up attitudes to love, and the weeb elements do not help. I am so fucking tired of people who
A) Deeply desire a 2d qt to bang
B) Hate women for being insufficiently moe
C) Hate women and sound like serial killers
D) Can't find a way to engage with their highly specific sexual objectives except by deluging the world in perverted magic
E) Have tiresome variants on the above for boys, feminine boys, husbandos, dickgirls, etc etc

One day CYOA will return to the blessed light of pic related.

How about a worst one?

What's the absolute most shameless waifu/fetish pandering CYOA you've ever gazed upon? The kind that gives you aneurysm and immediately brings to mind the image of a fat neckbeard hitting the keyboard away in the darkness, drooling over the magical realm he's creating?

Yes, and? Who cares? I was asking about the worst waifu/fetish CYOA. I'm sure there's a "worst adventure CYOA", feel free to name that too if you want. I just wanted to see if I degenerated far enough to find even the worst waifu CYOA's enjoyable.

>>56860588
Been lurking CYOAs for 5 years. Pretty much one of the most common of the choose one era were 'pick this hot girl' along with the 'pick magic item'. Plenty had both, waifu options were often included in multiple choice CYOAs too. Always been a thing. Sorry that when you came here some new OC didn't have any, but that wasn't the typical situation.

Don't remember, probably surface. Thistle was like the only companion good for mining, so I felt like the talents of my other companions would go to waste. Made me realize I should just make an adventure build like most people, but at that point I had no interest in starting everything from scratch.

The CYOAs in these threads tend to be character and/or scenario builders. They focus on building the scenario, the adventure books focus on the events that follow.

>Point is, why do you people make garbage 9 times out of 10? Format is irrelevant, it's the content that I'm talking about.
I don't know why people always act like this is some revelatory discovery or something. Most things are shit. That's true of every medium, every genre, every period of history, and every artist. Most of everything Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Donatello, and the fourth ninja turtle made was shit. You literally cannot make good things without making ten times as much shit.

The only difference is how much of the shit you see. And if you're here, in the CYOAg thread, you're in the sausage factory. You're in the place where new ideas are birthed, ground up, and reconstituted into a hopefully edible shape and consistency. It's going to be messy and awful but the act of creation always is.

If you just want the high quality finished product go hang out in funnyjunk or something.
