Sounds unnecessary and wouldn't help the CYOA in any way other than visual aid for people that lack imagination. The big focus on text itself should make the CYOA a text only PDF, he makes weird decisions, I think he just likes to fuck with people.

What is a CYOA but an aid for people that lack imagination? Why not make it just pictures and say "huh, just use your imagination to make up a story about them"?

It's an interactive story or a set of tools for you to make a story, written aid is more useful than some pictures if the author is going to be so specific about how every spell works, though I can understand the preference for photos, I like some CYOAs only because of the great art choices.

You guys are missing the whole point. Images are required to turn it from a wall of text into something readable (remember, players are supposed to have fun, as opposed to feeling like they're doing taxes). Also, illustrating the spell makes it easier to remember and find later, as well as allows you to skim through the list quickly before you decide if there's anything worth reading in it in the first place.

…Oh, and resorting to "images only" or "text only" is unimaginative as hell. Just so you know.

I still don't think it needs images, CYOAs don't have a specific way to be made, if people don't feel like reading, an image in every single spell won't change their mind, and making a text only CYOA it's not "unimaginative", the text has more effort than it takes to find shitty images to appease people that can't find paper and pencil to write down the spells that they like instead of going with the pic that catched their attention more.

there's a difference between not wanting to read at all, and not wanting to read reams and reams of tiny black text which could be condensed into a series of labelled images.

Yes, the text in this CYOA is already enough effort, it isn't unimaginative.

Adding images when most of the rituals are too specific and crude would make it look off and inconsistent. Really, where does one find pictures of raping and disembowelling virgins and drinking the fat of children?

>>15068

Have you even read it? It's the occult. The content is highly thorough, comprehensive and detailed. There's a good investment in historical hocus pocus and realistic grit. .

>>15070

The picture is supposed to show the effect of the spell (as it's the whole point of casting it), not the ritual itself, you moron. Although if you plaster a big RAPE AND MURDER sign on the rituals that require those, it would save anyone who's not a complete sociopath the effort of reading that "comprehensive and detailed" content (and I suppose it would also let those who are find their fap meal more easily, so more win for you).

>There's a good investment in historical hocus pocus and realistic grit

And no one gives a damn. The only thing these descriptions would do is convince the reader he doesn't really want to do these rituals (and potentially this CYOA as well). Crazy occult fanatics usually seek their fix in the actual fiction, where all these thorough descriptions belong in the first place.

>>15069

First. Saying "not doing X takes more effort than doing X" is retarded by definition. Second. No matter how thick your wall of text is, if you couldn't be bothered to make a proper, consumable CYOA out of it, your effort was clearly nowhere near enough. If you don't know the difference between a visual and a pure textual format, you're better off on a self-publishing website where no one would care about your lack of interest in proper presentation (or at least about the lack of images).

That's a pretty nice opinion there. A shame it's nothing more than an opinion, eh?

You can tell what the effect is by reading it, pictures are useless and only for people that lack imagination or the simple capability to conceptualize what they read in their minds.

I think in fact he should do away with all the images in the upper part and put a single one in the center that looks fine in low quality so he has more space to add more corruptions and obligation pacts. The single image could preferably be just an inverted pentagram, something that gets to the point right away, or just a symbol associated with occultism at large.

Quick update from last thread by the author:

- Compression is a bit less awful. Sorry for that.

- Some grimpoire-specific reshuffling in the fourth column for thematic reasons and thematic reasons only.

- Oracular Consumption has been moved up to second tier, both for its overlooked nature and a certain kind of insight.

- Talisman of Hermanubis has been moved up to third tier and for good reason – Its range has also been expanded adequately to match something otherwise missed.

Choice has been upped to six; formerly five. You have permission to forgo all six choices to double your parcel selection, if you want, but I'm leaving this unsaid

Added

- A note in a bottle.

- A holy censer.

- A few complimentary spells to accentuate certain written works.

- A ritual-slash-relic that I never did manage to throw into the fourth column of black magic proper.

- A mostly safe analysis on levitation
