The Idea:

Welcome! In this thread, I will endeavour to allow you all to experience my interactive comic adventure, wherein I will post a situation and you will all come to a descision as to what you want our protagonist to do next.

The most popular suggestion will be chosen, regardless of whether it is smart or not. If no descision outweighs another, I will choose the one I think makes the most sense.

The Setting:

The setting is based upon the idea that in a nuclear fallout, the sun would become blocked out by the smoke from the burning towns and landscape much the same as in the theory of the meteor hitting the earth in prehistoric times. This would cause the temperature to drop rapidly, generating what was in effect an ice age - nuclear winter.



The Game Begins!

Sasha stands, warming herself by the makeshift fire as the snow falls around her. The world, as always, is deathly still.

The fire crackles quietly, giving off enough heat to keep from freezing. Behind her, there is a makeshift shelter of scrap. The tip of a nearby scrapheap can be seen in the distance.

What will you have her do?

Sasha reaches through the fourth wall and punches Q, before looking around. She can't see very far through the snow, but knows that there is a scrapheap somewhere over the hills behind her. Her fire still gives off a warm glow in front of the makeshift scrap shelter. She isn't really sure what she is looking for, but there is a tire in front of the shelter.

Snow! See all the awesome snow! It's cold!
The head is exposed, so should show up as around 30°C (what with internal body temperature being around 37°C). The body is insulated, so much of it's heat is trapped inside the clothing, and won't be picked up.


I appear to have started a trend.

Wonder if the man doesn't have a point, what with those voices in your head who keep deciding you what you should do through majority vote.

Don't let that fit of genre savvynes distracts you though. Keep the still upright man in check with your gun while walking slowly to pick up the assault rifle on the floor (or at least push it away from the bleeding man it with foot to avoid him shooting you in the back if he manage to get up.)

Sasha slowly steps towards the gun, shouting.

>"I'm a surivor," the man shouts back, "And I'm living."

She reaches the gun, bending down to pick it up.

Suddenly, the man leaps over the snowmobile, kicking the gun out of Shasha's hand and kneeing her in the gut, sending her reeling to the ground. By the time she is able to think straight again, he has the gun trained on her.

>"Now I'm the one with the gun. Now I could shoot you right here, but I'm feeling generous. I'll be taking everything I can find here and leaving. I'll be leaving you with nothing - but I won't kill you."

That rifle seems to be of the Kalashnikov variety.

Metroid
Ratchet and Clank

Deus Ex

Star Tropics
Blaster Master
Syphon Filter
Ice Climber
Act Raiser
Wild ARMs
Sly Cooper

Pokemon Stadium
Psychonauts
Banjo-Kazooie
Burger Time

For fairness' sake, games that are fun to lose:
I Wanna Be the Guy
Tetris
Klax
Super Smash Brothers

I agree, the time for abusing playgrounders is over, the time for nut kicking, gun grabbing, and shooting of rival is now!

I don't need to take this abuse! :smallfrown:

*Comforts*

There, there.:smallfrown: People can be so inconsiderate at times. Here, have a chocolate bar.

...And I totally have no idea what to do. Can't think of anything, sorry.

Of course! Why didn't I see this before? Trip him up by kicking him in the nuts. The pain will distract him enough that she can grab the gun and shoot him.

The time for diplomacy has ended, the time for reckless action is now!

This one has accepted my vote.

Even if that sentence doesn't make any sense. :smalltongue:

Why are you guys hating on Q? :smallmad:


Hate? This is our expression of pure love!

Yes you do! That is how we love! And we love HARD! :smallamused:

>Kick him in the knee/nuts/whatever, yank the gun out of his hand, and point it at him. But don't shoot him, not lethally, anyway. He was perfectly willing to loot your stuff and let you die in the cold, so I say we return him the favor.


Yes, I am trying to make Sasha evil.

No, your trying to make her stupid evil.

Everyone knows that by the rules of drama that guy will survive somehow and then at some point in the future he will come after us, now as a cyborg-ninja as most of his body had been so badly damage by the cold.

I say we just shoot him in the head IF we even get the gun. And yeah, try to kick him in the nuts, but be careful so he don't press the trigger of the gun when you do so.

Wait, so an angry cyborg coming back from the dead is something we don't want to happen? That sounds awesome!

Diplomacy has failed, so I think it would be good to summarize the suggested options.

-Disarm the guy and kick him.
-Trip him.
-Wait for him to move away from Sasha and then kill him.
-Helen's peculiardiplomacy check/Q's suggestion
-Standard diplomacy, wich will surely fail.

Just one question, what happens if we die? Do we respawn or is it comic over?

I like this comic.

If we can't die "accidentally" and if he will always let us live, even if we make stupid mistakes, just so the comic won't end, what stops us from doing stuff that would normally kill us? There is no danger anymore.

But we would do stuff that would kill us anyway to see what happens...:smallconfused:...

I'm sorry, I was under the impression that the main motivating force of this "post-apocalypse" interactive comic was to stay alive.

Sasha sees an opening, and kicks a foot up, hitting the man square in the nuts and casing him to drop to the ground, losing hold of the gun. She picks it up and aims it at him...

He's not gonna join us, so we might as well dispose of him.
And once he's dead,

That would waste ammunition, though.

On the other hand, you know hold the gun. Beat him with it. Beat him to death with the butt of the rifle, firing no shots.
Pick up the magnum, then ride around on the snowmobile.

What's the point of being so cruel? She's got the weapon; he can't do anything.

But that risks him getting a hold of the gun again, while it only takes one bullet to the forehead to solve the problem.

But one strong hit with the butt of the rifle could knock him out. Knowing the nature of having you "Family Jewels" kicked, he should be weak for a minute. Just hit him. Again and again.

Fine.

Extract information from the guard, then kill him.

I have better idea: extract all useful data from the guard, order him to turn around and knock him unconsicous with the butt of the rifle. Then walk over to the other poor bastard and show him mercy by shooting him between the eyes. He would not last in snowstorm anyhow. Afterwards, loot the corpse and drive away.

This appears to be the best option suggested thus far.

Also, don't forget to take the propane as you drive off.

How do you plan on doing this? Based on our past experiences with him, I doubt he'd answer any question we put to him. This is assuming that he doesn't turn the tables on us once more, which he's done in the past. Better to kill him now and avoid the risk, then interrogate someone else later, preferably someone who's companion we hadn't just killed.

I second this comment.

Why should we be so cruel to kill in cold blood and lose our humanity, it never works :smalltongue:

It's the rule of sympathetic characters or something.
