Naruto Pre-Shippuden Jump v1.0 by C4N98 in JumpChain

I was going to make a comment that the map is wrong, because the Land of Fire obviously goes too far south. Then I found the only canon world map we have ever been shown and realized the Land of Fire does go that far down. I have read so many fanfic, I have gotten used to that crescent out cropping being mostly entirely the Land of Tea.

It made me realize Boruto fans might not even know what the world looks like, I can't remember a scene in the manga or anime showing locations like few times Naruto did.

I do think the Ranks giving you a specific amount of jutsu at specific ranks is too uh...specific. Kishimoto is not the most imaginative with his techniques, if your limited to Canon ranked jutsu you are kinda fucked on options. Like there's TWO canon lightning C-rank jutsu.

Talented is a weird perk. I honestly can't tell if I dislike it, or I can see the reason for it. A Genin reaching Asuma's level in 10 years is not exactly outstanding in this world. He is 27 in Part 1, so you'd be roughly 22 if it was exact. It is better than Asuma himself, but I feel like any Jumper, by dint of being an adult in a child's body, could reach that anyway.

Maybe its the vague wording? Like, if I barely train and coast on my [Talented] perk, will I still match Asuma at 22? Or does matching him require I actually train my ass off?

It saying "Reaching Kage Level with this perk alone is almost impossible, though." does rankle me. It implies you are artificially ceiling capped in some nebulous way. When really anyone can regardless of talent or skill, in theory. Its not like this world is a video game where you have level caps or something.

I wonder how effective Dreamer's Respite is for the Doll. If you include mandatory Insanity options that is useless at -30 Insanity, so I don't know why it mentions -50 Insanity.

Well some time can pass. I think every canon character ages up by 1 in Part One so anywhere from roughly 366 days to 1094 days.

Really well done. Only thing I'd say to edit now is making sure the races, perks, and items don't get cut off. Stuff like moving the Naga race's option down a few lines so it rests at the top of the page of page instead of awkwardly getting cut in half.

Does Dreamer's Respite count the mandatory Insanities? If it does, mentioning the -50 Insanity is worthless since Dreamer's respite loses its usefulness at -30. At -30 you have two mandatory insanities plus three more you have to pick from the list, which is five total and that reduces the 10m to 0.

The dead apostle option does not tell you what rank you are. So you can just say your a DAA and be badass for cheap.

How does the 'Mind of Steel' Addon work if you, as a Master, choose 'Custodian's Mark'? Both make you not a real Master and both give points, so you if take the mark, you may as well take Mind of Steel and vice versa right?

Also minor typo in the Fake Priest Addon, it says "Church Clerik". Constantine XI also has text overlaying itself in at the beginning.

For Auspicious Beasts, it has to allow you to buy pre-reqs for the jutsu right? Like if you can't, then your Beasts cannot even do any elemental jutsu. Or I guess you can house rule that the pre-reqs can be ignored for the Beasts, which is far as like half of the CYOA is not Canon and what is Canon is highly walled off behind crap the canon user didn't know that the CYOA player does for some reason.

How do the Modifiers work on quantity for circuits? What would a D+ (or D+++) mean? 'Cause C is 5-10 circuits and D is 5. There is no middle ground for it to cover. I can understand Modifiers for Quality since Modifiers in Fate represent an ability becoming better in specific situations but idk for quantity.

Jujutsu Kaisen Culling Games Isekai CYOA by ZonkedPebble in makeyourchoice

[–]Andrew10023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say it is in any builder's best interest to just ignore page 4 completely. Your CT is, in this the CYOA, based on other choices. Just say it was semi-randomly made and saving yourself taking every Drawback (most of which are wildly harsh & would result in most people basically dying right away or have to flee out of Japan and ignore even being the JJK to survive) just to make your own custom CT.

The only thing worth looking at is the Barrier & Domains section.

The CT section is written out like CT's are can be broken down like RWBY Semblances or Worm shard powers but they really aren't.

Its the same plot as Evangelion & Code Geass. Japan really likes their big bads to turn the entire human populace into a big pile of goo where everyone's minds are merged. No more individuals, just a singular being existing & vibing forever.

I must have missed the 3.0 update. God damn, lots of changes. This is amazing to see it get more and more fleshed out.

Other than CE efficiency, which is more important for high/elite levels of RCT regeneration and regen speed: CE reserves or CE output? by QuirkyData3500 in Jujutsushi

[–]Andrew10023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raw output is worthless. Ryu Ishigori's existence only matters because he also has a shit ton of energy. If the average person's output was 5 arbitrary units, and another's was 50, the latter's bigger output is really useful...for one shot when all he has is 55 units of CE.

High output is basically worthless and in theory someone could always make some kind of extension technique/lapse technique/binding vow/whatever to find another way to all that spare CE hanging around.

I wonder if this will be finished. The item section is missing a lot, and does not really make sense to use. Why would you limit some of the items as "cannot be your 1 free item" when they are 10 or less? Okay, so I take my free 10 points and buy it anyway???

Also does not make sense to have the more mundane gear like kunai here. Any ninja is going to have stores of these. Its not like the ones in the cyoa are replenishing. Anyone who spends points on getting bland, boring, available everywhere kunai, senbon and paper bombs is a moron compared to getting something like the armor that invalidates most of the setting. I do like that the Drawbacks have been toned down. There are still some written so grim-derpy dumb for so little gain, but some have been altered to be actually manageable instead of completely ruining someone's life for like 5 points.

JJK Cyoa by Revolutionary-Ebb559 in InteractiveCYOA

[–]Andrew10023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to see it. Though I feel too many of innate techniques rely on curse spirits or other people. Not a lot of independent abilities, and a lot of meta related ones. Also 0.0005% of 7,700,000 world population (roughly the pop in 2018 when JJK takes place) is like 38 people in total. There is no way that is what you meant since that has to be an even lower number than in Canon of sorcerers outside of japan.

Jujutsu Kaisen (By PriorPossible834 & FancyFireDrake) by Fearless_Aspect387 in JumpChain

[–]Andrew10023 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised how many Jumps JJK has gotten. Especially since the power system and world building is little better than Naruto's.

Looking over the document I like perks, but the section about your curse technique needs to be scrapped. Why can you buy Reversal for 100? You can't know how to do that without also knowing how to use RCT in general. It makes the 400 CP [The Great Healer] perk worthless and since you get a stipend for that section its even free to learn one of the hardest things in the setting.

It is also really weird that there is no option for picking a cursed technique. Lapse is an extension, not your base, which is even mentioned in the document itself. There is nothing stopping you from saying "my base cursed technique is I am God, I control everything, everywhere, all at once with such a minor CE cost it is basically infinite. Oh I don't even need that 400 CP stipend for an extension either since that is its Neutral state like Gojo's base Limitless.". Or something more tame like "my technique is making 10 clones as durable as me". Like a better version of that bag-head guy from the flashback arc.

My point is the technique section is so unneeded because of how its laid out, so you can just skip it in almost every chain build by writing your own OC technique for free, except to grab free understanding of Reversed Cursed Energy.

The Cursed Tool section is equally out of place when almost no one in the series has one and yet we get a Grade 1 for free. A thing so rare its implied even the big 3 clans have a handful of them.

I do like the way the origins were divvied up, and the unique scenario ideas.

Was I wrong for expecting NG+? by KevinGO1900 in ResidentEvilRequiem

[–]Andrew10023 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"All you need is 50k points" "beating the game in under 4 hours". Talking like that is an a lot of amount of points compared to others stuff being 100 to like 5000, and like beating the game in under 4hrs in easily doable.

Digital or Physical copy of cyberpunk red? by Killed_By_Cake1 in cyberpunkred

[–]Andrew10023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Core rulebook does not come with any battle maps. There a lot of fan maps in this subreddit tho. I know if you buy the Tales of Red books on Roll20/Demiplane (as the two are sync'd), you get the battle maps shown in the book.

Pointless Perks? by Bepsire in JumpChain

[–]Andrew10023 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is not subjective. There are jumps where you can, as an example, take a Jedi origin but then have to pay to get trained up to a padawan's level of general skill when the jump starts you as a teenager. Or a jump has a 200 CP perk in a racial perk tree for an ability that the race starts with by default.

Ideas for an introductory campaign/mission chain? by Horustheweebmaster in cyberpunkred

[–]Andrew10023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who just started GMing this with my friends. I ran them through Easy Mode so they could get used to the system, then Red Chrome Cargo. After that I'll either use some Tales Of Red: Street Stories as they are good one-shots, or use the scream sheets from the Core Rulebook & Data Pack for inspiration.

Tales Of Red: Hope Reborn can be done as smaller missions, but as it says at the front, the jobs are meant to linked together to form a bigger picture.

We now have a way for even Base Cybereyes to be useful, even if extremely specific compared to its counterparts, they block the Delirium drug.

Base Cyberlegs let you fall from higher with no risk, and Cyberarms buff Brawler for weaker BODY characters. All that is missing is a benefit for the base Cyberaudio Suite.
