Statement of the OPs lack of experience with quests in a humorous self deprecating way, thus lowering the audiences expectation.


"Ominous and/or pithy quote that may also reveal the core conflict between the protagonist(s) and the antagonist(s) in italics."


Lengthy introduction of the setting of the quest that may either be dome in the third person or first person, often with darkly humorous statements about the quality and length of life of the less well-to-do inhabitants of said setting, that may or may not work in the quest title.


Query directed toward posters over the gender, race, and skills of the main protagonist (or PC), in order to appeal to those who wish for customization of their PCs to their play styles.

Tutorial on how to respond here:

Additional query to posters asking what kind of quest they would like in order to further appeal to their tastes. A list of genres.

"Overwhelmed and frustrated!"
"Choosing to ignore the possible risks of what I'm about to do. Reassuring that my action will have no negative consequences."


Unnecessary apology for needing to fulfill biological needs that would only make sense on the internet. Lame joke comparing reality to the internet. Catchphrase!

326082

Possible death of the protagonist and/or end of quest averted, almost entirely due to the number and quality of responses to this quest.

Light flickering on, to reveal a seemingly unchanged environment. Drastic change of environment averted due to laziness.

>>325961
"Interrupted reassurance that I am still not in any danger, nor-"
{LOUD ELECTRONIC VOICE COMING FROM A SPEAKER THAT SUDDENLY APPEARS, AND WAS MOST LIKELY ADDED AT THE LAST SECOND. CLARIFICATION OF IMPRISONMENT, WHILE IGNORING THE CHARACTER'S NAME AND SUBSTITUTING A STRING OF NUMBERS. FURTHER CLARIFICATION THAT NO SEQUENCE OF BUTTONS WAS PRESSED, THUS THE PUZZLE WAS NOT CORRECTLY COMPLETED. OTHER LOGICAL AND THEMATIC FALLACIES IGNORED.}

"Swearing. YELLING AS THE SPEAKER, FINISHING WITH A EDITED QUOTE FROM A TELEVISION SHOW WITH A SIMILAR PREMISE!"

{What?}

Speaker retracts into wall.

"Confusion and frustration stated. Asking for response."

>>325956
Explain as reference to a similar occurrence within a semi-popular comic book series also starring a female protagonist.

Yet another internet term, this time referring to the futility of changing the opinion of a person, specifically a negative one.

>>326086

Large improvement in the artwork of this quest, much to the unhappiness of the OP, who is a whiny bitch. Mild concern about the OP over the next area.

Statement describing the buttons in length, at which approximately 50% of those current participating in this quest will click the Ignore Thread button, causing mild emotional distress for the OP.
"Query about theory, urging plot-justified poster(s) to state details. Showing mild impatience despite being in no hurry."

No. 326147 ID: 0d095c

Long, boring, convoluted nonsensical mathematical theorem on the potential effects of the buttons. Smug, superior selection of a single arbitrary button chosen at random.

noticeable drop in quality that the OP thinks can be ignored.

>>326147
"Confusion at ridiculously simple equations that determine the correct buttons to press to complete Cliche Button Puzzle. I make anti-intellectual statements that expose myself as nothing more than a mouthpiece for the OP."


Also, you didn't say which buttons. Incorrectly done emotive icon for smiling.


>>326170
"Description of heads up display, and mutual confusion at readouts. Showing shoulder-pad text, originally intended only as extra unnecessary detail, but not before I enter a long-winded rant about how CORPORATIONS ARE BAD that will later be used in the OPs next quest after this one verbatim."

Continuation of word that the poster had apparent difficulty typing, unaware of the nature of such a post.

IGNORING POST TO SHOW OFF THE MECHANICS OF THIS QUEST. SAID MECHANICS INCLUDE AN UPGRADING SYSTEM, RANKED BY COLOR.
Further expospeak justifying the existence of the existence of this technology in the year Future Date, in addition to glossing over details of the past X years.

"Announcing my intention to sneak leftward to the plot-justified posters loudly and clearly."

"Confused grunt? What are these Quest-relevant items?"
SUDDEN INFO DUMP THAT DOES NOT INTERRUPT THE PLOT AT ALL.
Now entering Railroad Mode. Please make way for any dimensionally-challenged beings while finding your seat.

YOU OBTAINED AN ENERGY PACK
YOU OBTAINED AN UPGRADE PACK
CONGRATULATIONS, I'M HONORED TO BE HERE.
ALSO YOUR SUIT CAN CHANGE COLOR

Obscure reference to an early 2000s shooter RPG that most posters have at least a passing knowledge of. Blatant advertisement for the next entry of the series. Link to illegal download of said videogame. Quitting quest temporarily to answer door...

Nothing happens.

Belated continuation of hacking upgrade. Explanation of the difference between the the nature of the hacking upgrades vs other upgrades for Mods, as seen in this animation.

Also, this is animated.
