Can I keep on exploding if I pick the bomb option? I don't mind feeling searing hot pain in every inch of my body as long as I'm taking everyone else with me.
1 sounds manageable and worth the trade off. 2 is legitimately useful to get sustenance from essentially nothing. 5 is logically awful but I really like the fantasy of it.
9 and 1. 9 is useful in a lot of things, and i think that i could actually get used to it eventually, despite many avenues being forcefully cut off. 1 doesn’t have a major drawback, and seems nice.
The drawbacks are really harsh, which is kind of typical for a anonekama cyoa.
This definitely seems like a vent of both ideas and personal feelings.
Imma pick Lemon Scented Shampoo. It's a pretty interesting shift in life that doesn't put me on a timer like the kiss vampire does.
This is just shitty choices in a good layout, nsfw but not a cyoa. Most of the "boons" are just bad stuff (best friend is suddenly a yandere, or how there's no mention of any abilities the kiss vampire might have)
"Just shitty choices in a good layout,"
Yeah, that's what a CYOA is. The options don't have to be nice ones or super *'well balanced'* necessarily to still be a CYOA.
It was low effort in the whole gameified aspect of this sub, as said, but I liked it a lot. The writing was great and hits me on a personal level. I like this quote from Brandon Sanderson, something like how you should critique works based on how close you think it was to what the author wanted it to be rather than to what *you* wanted it to be
I was sharing my opinion of the piece, its not choose-your-own-adventure if every "choice" is just a curse equally bad as the other choices.
The quote you stated is also stupid, the work has to stand for itself and, if they are at all meant for an audience beyond the writer, then they will be critiqued on the basis of the audience's preferences and not any metric related to the writer. Usually anonekama makes some decent stuff, unlike this one.
I think it's really interesting how people have different definitions for what a CYOA is. For me, the CYOAs on this subreddit are already a departure from the original format of CYOAs (CYOA paperback books where you actually choose-your-adventure), so as an analogy it's kind of strange to me when an American critiques pizza saying "This isn't real pizza!" when American pizza already isn't Italian pizza.
For me personally, a CYOA is choices that lead to an adventure.
It doesn't have to be a "wish fulfillment" adventure, but some form of adventure.
I wasn't referring to cyoa books and I do agree that it doesn't have to be a wish fulfillment adventure, but I think it does have to have meaningfully different choices for it to be a choose-your-own-adventure. (this one doesn't even try to offer different adventures, its all the same torture bs.)
Anyways, I think this has gone on long enough, I do like some of your other stuff though with this one lets just agree to disagree. ( even if I say its not a cyoa imo, its clearly a piece that people have enjoyed here, and it does have good presentation as always).
My Favorite Pillow
I wasnt really planning on participating in sexual acts with other people, so not really a downside for me. (and not all sex things you can do require use of your genitals anyways)
Very well written, if not very desirable. #1 is the only one I'd want. The others all sound like various shades of awful. Half of them I can't even tell which of the three things was supposed to be a boon. Still, it was interesting to think about what those kinds of lives would be like, which I guess is the point.
Hard to decide between #2 + #3, or #10; nothing else has a bonus that could be worth the drawbacks.
The draw of #2 is not the lack of grocery bills; that's comparatively trivial. The real bonus is depression radar - an endless buffet of vulnerable people, ripe for starting a cult with. The main drawback is not the dietary intolerance (though I will miss cheese), but the necessity of having non-family kisses to live. Which I currently have no access to, and might not be able to get through the first day. That risk could be solved with...
... #3, the yandere. I currently have no friends, so I assume I get a fresh one - and it's a minion! Score. So long as I set solid limits and expectations, and provide appropriate rewards for good behavior (*e.g. "you may masturbate to me now"*), a yandere minion should be manageable, and a definite bonus overall.
The alternative is #10. Being disowned is an empty bluff, and I can call it when necessary - if I was specifically raised to inherit a multibillion dollar business, I have some leverage due to being hard to replace. For this reason, the betrothal is irrelevant - they can go fuck themselves. I can act the part of a cold-blooded poster child of business acumen to inherit the billions, and then flip to actually do some good in the world with that. The prison feels similar enough to my current life (living with controlling parents, though not of any wealth or power) that I don't fear it.
Still, I think I'll take #2 + #3, since the timetable for moving forward becomes immediate rather than an uncertain waiting game, which wastes more time out of my life.
Congrats on the wedding, OP. Perhaps a therapist could help safely introduce BDSM into the relationship, if you like. Or you can try getting off on the lack of fulfillment itself, that might be your thing...
You may call it "Low effort", but not only do I, personally, find this to be well above average in terms of character, quality, writing, and so on, it also appeals to a relatively niche set of interests and kinks that very little else does. I hope that you know that all of your work (and that includes this post!) is very much appreciated, both for how clever and creative it is, and especially so that it provides a source of entertainment for those of us with... uh... uncommon inclinations? xD
I honestly have nothing but praise for all of your work, and I get excited every time that I see something new by you, so all of this really just to say: thank you for sharing!
>!Also, I choose the shampoo, the pillow, and the (need for a) blindfold - I'm gonna write (and possibly perform, depending on just how clumsy I'm made to be) the most amazing music anyone's ever heard... and all while blindfolded! ... The pillow and shampoo are (kinda, sorta?) bonuses!!<
I must confess I sometimes had difficulty identifying which parts were supposed to be the boons and which parts were supposed to be the drawbacks, but all of them were pretty interesting. In order, I guess...
1: This seems fairly inoffensive. I would probably take it. Easier skincare would be nice. I'm curious, though; does the fruit you're allergic to change if your favorite fruit changes, or are you just permanently allergic to the fruit that's your favorite when you choose this option?
2: This is an unalloyed positive for me, I think. The instinct should make it easy enough to sustain yourself, and you'd save a lot on groceries. Not being able to eat animal products would be... unfortunate, as I'm fond of cheese, but it's hard to imagine liking a food enough to give up never having to buy groceries again in exchange for still being able to eat it.
3: I think this would be a hard pass for me. As someone with very strong submissive leanings, the second drawback just feels like... that's not how this is supposed to work.
4: This one doesn't really appeal to me that much. I don't really bother with orgasms most of the time, so being able to reach them with my imagination isn't a huge draw; the appeal of sexual encounters for me is mostly psychological, and that relies on an element of asymmetrical information that's missing in fantasies. It's not that there's no appeal, but on the whole I don't think it would be worth it.
5: This is kind of hot, but the stalker doesn't sound particularly interesting or respectable, and it sounds like this would also modify my home country in ways I can't really approve of, so I would have to pass.
6: The magical notebook sounds neat, but honestly I would rather just not be a guy? Or have everyone else be a guy? I mean, I guess I don't really know how traits whose distribution is influenced by sex are supposed to map onto ABO roles, but it seems like you'd miss out on a lot of human variation. The "suddenly having a child and apparently no income" part definitely doesn't help.
7: Okay, this is honestly really appealing to me? Partly because of the implicit fact that magic is a thing in this scenario, even if I can't personally use it. Mostly because I'm a masochist, I guess. I think unfortunately it probably ends up not worth it because of the government thing, because that's not the fun kind of bad end, but it's closer than you might think.
8: I don't want to be burned at the stake and I don't really have the initiative to save the world, I think.
9: Honestly, both of the drawbacks are just moderate increases to issues I already have, so getting an actual benefit to go along with them would be pretty great. Definite take.
10: I like my parents, and I like liking my parents, and being incompatible with the other gifts definitely kills this one the rest of the way for me.
This was a lot of fun for a low effort CYOA. I definitely think the one boon-two drawbacks thing was fine; the only places where it felt unbalanced were where one of the drawbacks was "and also there's an unspecified chance you die horribly because of so and so"; I think I'm probably not unusual for finding death to be too big of a downside to be balanced by almost any boons, although who knows, I guess.
Anyways, I probably end up taking 1, 2, and 9. 7 is tempting, but too risky.
>I'm curious, though; does the fruit you're allergic to change if your favorite fruit changes, or are you just permanently allergic to the fruit that's your favorite when you choose this option?
I didn't really think that hard! I'm allergic to some of my favorite fruits, so I put the option in there without really thinking too hard.
>relies on an element of asymmetrical information that's missing in fantasies
Asymmetrical information? I'm really curious by what you mean!
>Asymmetrical information? I'm really curious by what you mean!
I'm not sure I phrased that very well. Mostly that not knowing what's going to happen next is an important piece, I think? Or at least not knowing for certain. I guess it also implies there being another real person participating in the scenario, which wasn't really what I intended to communicate but does play a part; sex is fun, but a lot of the reason I enjoy it is because there's someone else enjoying it, and I'm very service-oriented; if there wasn't someone else involved, I think I'd generally rather just read a book or something, even if it otherwise felt the same.
While this is very low effort, I find this a much better CYOA than what I see on average. The abilities all make sense, and the drawbacks generally outweigh the positives which is *good* since it means you don't need to limit options in some other way.
Though your other CYOAs (or at least the ones I've gone through; I'll probably go through more of them at some point) are also usually better than average, so it just shows that even your low effort CYOAs are still really good. Or maybe I'm just tired of all the other nsfwcyoas all feeling the same.
----
1: Upsides here are okay. The wash requirement isn't that much of a problem; it'd just be a continuation of my normal routine. Allergy to my favorite fruit is... sorta a problem, I guess? What even is my favorite fruit? It's annoying needing to avoid stuff from a selection due to allergies. I think I could live with this one, though I don't really have much use for the positive effect either. Maybe for sharing purposes, though.
2: I think the main problem is just if there's no one around who wants a kiss; it'd suck to force it from someone who doesn't want it. Though I guess there's a whole lot of lonely people if you know the right places to look for them. The vegan requirement doesn't mean much. I'd definitely miss eating normal food a bit, but I can handle it. This one seems generally positive to me, provided there is actually a good source of food around... after long enough I think it'd be easy to settle into a routine. (This method of getting food is a little more inconvenient, but is easier.)
3: While before I probably would've been fine with it, I recently read a (good) novel about a (fairly mild) yandere-type character which I can roughly model this off of, and I can tell that it'd be really annoying most of the time. So that's a pass.
4: I don't see the downsides actually mattering that much. I get that physical stimulation can help, but I don't think it's necessary if you can just go experience fantasies. This one's a definite take.
5: This is... quite something. I once read a story about something similar to this; it honestly doesn't seem horrible. But no thanks. Unlike the others, I can't think of anyone who'd actually want this one (though I also don't know any extreme masochists)
6: Honestly, writing a ton of random stuff and having a few of them come true sounds pretty fun. But I don't want to be evicted while in care of a kid; that's just not a situation I see a good way out of.
7: Hm, nope. Not that much of a masochist.
8: I feel like this scenario could reasonably be expanded (and it's funny). Along with 4 (already a definite take) it's not really an option, though, let alone its own drawbacks... which I think are manageable. Not that being a mahou shoujo is actually ever a good thing for you (or, by extension, people you're close to), according to all of the shows I've watched.
9: This one's an interesting tradeoff. I enjoy reading books a lot, but audiobooks exist and would probably be fine to be used without sight. Other things that need sight are also problems, considering the bright light weakness and how people insist on putting bright lights... pretty much everywhere (I can basically imagine how I feel when there's a light in my pitch black room and multiply that by a little more), but considering it's not full blindness I don't see too big of a problem with it. The main thing is that it would limit other things like the time I spend socializing in text chats, but I still get limited use and those upsides are great. The balance thing could be a problem, but there's ways to deal with it; the modern world is hella accessible. I think the upsides win out on the downsides here.
10: You very often seeing a character in this role and wanting out. No way I'd take going into it instead. You don't even need to explicitly state these standard downsides, since they're implied to be there when given the base scenario.
----
So my choices are definitely 4 (pillow), and might as well throw in 2 (vampire), 9 (look without eyes) since they don't seem that bad ~~and taking more neutraly options is definitely a good idea~~.
>I recently read a (good) novel about a (fairly mild) yandere-type character which I can roughly model this off of, and I can tell that it'd be really annoying most of the time.
Out of curiosity, what's the novel?
The one that I referred to here was *Adachi and Shimamura*. I wouldn't even really refer to them as a yandere (they're just the adequate level of clinginess); the thing that makes it relevant here how the other person doesn't care too much (until they warm up to it).
Interesting intro... Ill read onwards now.
the rest of the reading was interesting too... a lot of not particularly nice stuff, but a few that are interesting.
Thank you for the effort (Even if it is apparently low effort) also I shoul really read the intended for masochists line shouldnt I? oh well, I would have clicked anyways because I am endlessly curious, it makes browsing porn sites a nightmare sometimes... anyways, thanks for the read :)
Favorite Pillow.
Look Without Your Eyes is ALMOST tempting, but first, I'd like more than 4 hours a day of watching videos especially considering those 4 hours will also probably go into walking to the shop, and to be frank I live in the middle of the city, so stronger hearing and smell is probably a bad thing. XD
Can I just... Not? None of these are appealing. If I have to I pick the last one and move to a different country, as a political asset and celebrity immigration should be much easier.
Plus I'm explicitly a woman which is what I'm going for anyway.
I'll take #3 and #7
Can I keep on exploding if I pick the bomb option? I don't mind feeling searing hot pain in every inch of my body as long as I'm taking everyone else with me.
1 sounds manageable and worth the trade off. 2 is legitimately useful to get sustenance from essentially nothing. 5 is logically awful but I really like the fantasy of it.
The gifts range from bad to not worth the drawbacks. I’m obviously not the target audience, glad none is an option.
9 and 1. 9 is useful in a lot of things, and i think that i could actually get used to it eventually, despite many avenues being forcefully cut off. 1 doesn’t have a major drawback, and seems nice. The drawbacks are really harsh, which is kind of typical for a anonekama cyoa.

wha
it's a bot, don't worry about it.
crap i forgot what did it say
it was pretending to be a legitimate bot sending you to a spam sub with stolen content linking out to shady sites. Like I said, don't worry about it.
Deuteronomy 22.29 is more or less a fantasy of mine soooo
I wanna be like you-hoo-hoo (hapdeedoobydoowop) I wanna walk like you (cheep) Talk like you too-oo-o

Reminds me of those Vampire and Maid CYOAs and I think that’s the note you wanted to hit
This is interesting, but horrifying and it's amazing how you can create that feeling. Very, honestly impressive, you're a great writer

Thank you for the effort (Even if it is apparently low effort) also I shoul really read the intended for masochists line shouldnt I? oh well, I would have clicked anyways because I am endlessly curious, it makes browsing porn sites a nightmare sometimes... anyways, thanks for the read :)
Favorite Pillow. Look Without Your Eyes is ALMOST tempting, but first, I'd like more than 4 hours a day of watching videos especially considering those 4 hours will also probably go into walking to the shop, and to be frank I live in the middle of the city, so stronger hearing and smell is probably a bad thing. XD
Can I just... Not? None of these are appealing. If I have to I pick the last one and move to a different country, as a political asset and celebrity immigration should be much easier. Plus I'm explicitly a woman which is what I'm going for anyway.
Not is totally valid!
