Cheats that you had seen in your entire reading life.

[NotaNuffian]

I had given up hope.

Initially I gave my MC a Gacha Cheat but then it got tainted because I added in a Shop subset. Now it grew over the initial cheat and I have no idea how to resolve unless I do an overhaul.

So I will now try my best to stuff this little bastard with so much cheats until he is so coked up that he can see me, the author, who really wants him to die.

For context, a Gacha Cheat is granting MC the ability to draw out talents, items and even actual characters from a chosen pool. Examples include MC suddenly gaining the ability to have One Piece characters' strength like Mihawk's Swordsmanship, Caesar's Gas Gas Zoan Devil Fruit and for fucks sake, Nami so fanboy authors can have their self inserts to insert themselves into her. The Gacha ability can keep on plagiarize other better verses and that is why most CN fanfics actually enjoy using them.

The supposed Shop subset is me adding a Shop Cheat into the mix. A Shop Cheat allows MC to buy things that are often non-existent in MC OG world. In many KRs, the said Shop Cheat is often turned into E-Bay/ Facebook marketplace style where people can trade and scam other people to further improve themselves.

The other system based Cheats are as below:
1. System that allows MC to do repetitive actions to increase skill level. Note that skill level does not degrade.
2. System that allows MC to gain skill points from elsewhere in order for MC to increase the level of the skill that he wanted.
3. System that allows MC's skills to not degrade over time, this is a given for all types of cheat actually.
4. System that allows fusion of two or more real life items to form into a new item. See Abe the Wizard and Horadric Cube.
5. System that grants MC a special dimension of his own to do mock battles. May or may not be time dilated.
6. System that allows MC ascension to different lives, letting him gain experience from each past lives he had until he becomes All Powerful. Frankly I hate this one the most.
7. System that gives MC his own dimension that can be use for storage of non-living and or living things. The more impressive version will be for MC to have the ability to have a farmland in it and even bringing himself and selected others inside it to live.
8. System that grants MC limited future sight, allowing him to collect intel. A more advanced version even allows MC to gain the strength of his supposed future self into current self, allows him to have any item from his future self and the entire uncut memories and experience of his future self.

I am really scraping the bottom of the barrel over here. Please give me some of your ideas for me to steal, thank you.

Make him get negative talents causing him to lose some if not 99% of the cheats he has. Kind of like a restart.

 

[Macha]

System that gives the MC a small chance of receiving SSSR talents and great chance of him losing all his talents.

Go big or go home.

 

[Spacerunner357]

Imagin putting your self in there with certain powers,|:) also you could do a split story like keep the chapters that you made but split it off into a alternate path

Ohh yeah amazing idea or where he temporary loses certain abilities

You could also Pull a Ezy and Make it so Certain Areas Realms locked peoples's power and other things like Rules and Laws hope this helps

 

[Alski]

Gacha system gets jealous of the shop system and turns yandere.

 

[Valmond]

The MC presses a button and it is instantly End Credits.

There, your story is complete.

 

[ItzATrap52]

MC gains clones that do the grinding for him.

 

[BearlyAlive]

A system that looks like "The System" but is just a gameify app that some lazy ass gamers use to motivate themselves to do the things they actually should do. Like getting +1 Int studying for an hour or +1 Str for lifting weights for a while or getting a "skill" like "cleaning" for, you know, actually cleaning stuff.

 

[PancakesWitch]

just make the shop reach its "max capacity" or something, so he still has to heavily rely on the gacha. also add gacha banners where he can pull from a specific pool of items/characters to not make it too completely random and give him some agency over it

 

[melchi]

I'm not really sure what the question is?

You want to nerf the character or just complaining maybe?

 

[NotaNuffian]

Actually no.

I do not want to nerf the character.

I have no clue why @whitesculptor @Macha @Valmond had been advising me to break my MC kneecaps with a crowbar and at this point, I am afraid to ask.

I am half complaining but also half seeking more versions of system based cheats in order to stuff my cheat with even more cheat to see if I find a way out of it. So far I kind of do.

Only @PancakesWitch gave me sort of a plausible advice over here.

Generally, readers prefer creative use of limited powers compared to OP protags. Having lots of limits would accomplish that. That is probably what they were trying to say.

I'm not saying OP protags are all bad, but someone that can't be beaten has to have a different gauntlet to go through besides beating enemies for it to be compelling. Hopefully that makes sense.

I understand that.

And the reason why I ask for so many cheats is to place them into the framework and then make convoluted weaknesses and drawbacks to use them.

I shouldn't have answered then, sorry.

 

[AYM]

The cheat given to an author mc transported into their webnovel world where they can write fanfiction about themselves to get stronger.

Do you need him to have extra weaknesses or something? In that case, I suggest limiting the number of cheats he can equip at once. That will make him strategize and ponder whether switching out his ability is worth it. And it will shorten the list of things for the author to keep track of.

 

[NotaNuffian]

I shouldn't have answered then, sorry.

At least you did speak.

 

[Macha]

All I did was wasting your time reading my unhelpful answer.

Still putting the main bulk as the Gacha cheat.

I am continuing with my saga of plagiarizng popular works.

Nah.
