RPGM A.I.D.A [v0.599] [Zem]

[The_Knut]

Hello, is this mission related to this tree woman? How can I finish the task? Pls help

Nothing to do with the tree woman, first you need to go to the Water Purifier (located to the south of the Farms) then talk with the npc you got the quest from then go to the north of West Noxious map. (or just read the steps written on the 'Objectives' in the Quest Menu...)

 

[ObsidianShard]

yes, say "well done, Google".

Wonderful... regress to progress, i guess... bleh. Hope i can my pc fixed at some point in the future. Thanks anyway.

No in-battle scenes would be just boring. Even if by a bit, it moves the game alongside the "game with sex put in it" to "sex game" scale. Also, enemy titty

I don't think it does. It's just literally there to skip over it, no one is going to whip it out during a fight scene, it's just random encounters not interesting characters, you have to build up some sort of connection between the player and the character to make it any sort of interest for the player so i really do think it's a waste of resources which instead he could invest into more fleshed out characters that actually adds to the story

Strongly disagree. You are presenting your specific likings as a very untrue generalisation of everyone. And if you want sex with emotional connections, this ain't the game or genre for you. For both of Zem's games, sex scenes consist mostly of heroines getting suddenly penetrated. Also, clearly you haven't figured out how to play RPGM games one-handed (tip: arrows, enter, shift and numpad 0). Again with Zem's games, a lot of enemy designs are quite AWOOGA, and by all means I will have both of my hands busy with different things during a battle.

This dude's games are just following a retarded thicc female protag to see her getting fucked by the random thing with a penis she happens to encounter. Theres no connection or romance. Its that type of game, cant compare it with others that are more serious about relationships and all that.

I never generalised for everyone though , if you read any of my comments I always mentioned specifically that "I think", "In my opinion" I know some people might like this kinda content, in this case that's you. And idk where this "clearly" is coming from, like I said I don't think it's content thats fappable, all the content with the enemies are 2 second animations that are repeated over and over again, idk about you but I don't bust a nut in 2 seconds and especially not when it's some random enemies (you don't know anything about) and you're supposed to defeat at the same time. Instead of wasting time on such encounters it could be put onto more meaningful content that adds to the story

Not exactly because there ARE meaningful characters in the game, but instead all the focus is on random enemy encounters, it's why I was wondering in my original comment whether anyone else finds this a waste of effort, it just draws out the development time by god knows how long (but ig it's a patreon project after all so it's doomed to take at least 3 years to finish anyway)

 

[RedBakedPotato]

For those struggling with the boss, take out all of her tentacle wire thingys since they will pretty much be the enemies that damage you most of the time while the main body seems to mostly inflict status conditions on you. After all that, aida's high jump kick, mk laser and roxanne's head crush will be your friend in this fight.

I had a bug in the final part of the update, I went through the power plant route and before I saved the doctor I went exploring and took the second route through the abandoned tunnels, but the game recognized that I came through both paths after I saved the doctor He activated the two escape route missions, blocking all the passages and I was trapped.

If anyone can let Dev know or if he sees my post to let him know about this bug.

I just let the developer be themselves and agree to disagree while still appreciating what they get solidly built in their development.

For example, yes the character sex scenes spontaneously popping up in battle is a plus, and their quality in the given art style is great. Yes, the fetishes are good. Yes, the game has a strength in giving a good fun time, and the lack of seriousness helps with that.

What did I disagree with the developer on? I posted exactly once that A.I.D.A. did a better job than his earlier game Paccsu on turn-based combat balance and stripping away unnecessary obsolete-to-the-point of redundant equipment drops from enemy loot tables. I recommended the developer try better to balance the game if they can since it is easy to be overleveled, which trivializes turn-based gameplay and some weapons make the game too easy if equipped.

What did he do next update? Release a big-ass revolver that's pretty damn strong. Confirmed steamroller of stuff the moment you pick it up.

And that's that. I suggested a more solid approach to balance and he didn't nor probably will ever try very hard for that. At least the game has great porn scenes and a humorous pace that makes it good for casual brainless, mostly quick fun. I just let the dev do as they wish and try not to bother about what I disagree with because I can always rate the game lower if I wanted for a valid reason and the game is still nice for what he does as he likes to do it.

Yup, that's a classic stereotype kind of bug there - quest conditions is set to some absolutes (this OR that, route_point_variable = exactly 1, if more than 1: oops, I didn't plan for that). I've broken a variety of games being too enthusiastic about playing through everything in jank fashion. It's a good idea for the dev to fix but for now make use of those 20 RPGM save slots and maybe manually save some in a folder on the side.

Yeah I'm of the opinion that the battle fuck scenes in this are a good part of the game. It would be one thing of you had to like lose the battle to see the scenes, but they're incredibly easy to proc, play out pretty quickly, and you can skip them once you've seen them. Plus they just add more sex/art to the game that's pretty much the same quality as all the other scenes. Gives extra incentive to do battles too.

To each there own, but if you're playing this (and the dev's previous game) for meaningful writing/characters I think you're just in the wrong place. Depends on what you mean by meaningful characters I suppose, but I don't know how you'd form "meaningful" relationships with anyone besides Aida herself and the deathclaw girl that joins you. Most people show up like once for whatever quest they are a part of and it's usually the same deal for non-battle sex scenes. I can understand if you like having more context to scenes I guess, but very few things are complex here.

The dev's entire writing approach is just having fun with it. Which isn't a bad thing because it's working, but I'd fundamentally disagree with you if you'd call this game deep/meaningful. I mean I just booted it up and my last save was literally in "The town of Cumassbenis."

Pretty much. Also remember that anything worth doing is worth doing poorly, as I read once. Which in short means, if you have a good idea and it's so good you absolutely should do it, do not get caught up on perfectionism of trying to do everything right all at once. This game has great parts to it. "Meaningful relationships" is not one of them. There are visual novels that focus on "meaningful relationships". Some VNs are even highly rated, like The Survival of Sarah Rose. Granted I've not tried it yet, but story is strong there so if you want story theyakuzi, try it out.

Although FYI, this game does have some significant characters, they're just not frequently encountered. The tall bandit lady you meet early on is encountered later and you have the option to spare her. There's a lady in the first town whom you help take down the corrupt mayor. The doctor who made you of course is significant, and you'll try to save him. The primary antagonist lady yet is also significant. Yet they don't have to be in your face all the time - they're significant to the plot. Kinda like the popular factoid that the main antagonist of the movie The 6th Element never actually meets the hero.

So maybe you mean partner NPCs in your turn-based RPG? That's Roxanne for now and she has significant story too. Do you mean more of those? Well, exactly 1 at any given time is accurate to Fallout and also wise since this game lets you steamroll hard anyway. Although you can try one of those strategy games akin to Fire Emblem for that kind of thing, like Tactics Elemental. Significant choice there, too.

Luv ya too, guy. For what it's worth, I not only love your art style but the personality of your dialogues and the areas you make. You did great with the haunted ghost house in Paccsu, including the story that went with it.

It's all just banter around games, no offense to you. You did great.

On the flip side, while Larian's winning every Game of the Year award, it took nearly a decade for their previous work DOS2 to get its deserved recognition by riding on BG3's fame from the rep it carried from WotC and decades-past BG games. What I mean is, your game's nice and you can always do more but don't worry, just keep going and think of cool stuff for the future projects. Perfection is a dangerous thing that can prevent a project from being completed. Reach for it when you're ready.

I don't know what to say...except...MORE! More ass! More tits! More quests! More EVERYTHING!

Though, if I may offer a suggestion, maybe putting some simple cosmetic armors with vendors would give something to spend your money on. Even if it's just pallet swaps it's at least something to use these thousands of caps on.

For the record I think your games are great and are some of the better examples of solid RPGM lewd games. At the end of the day they're fun (and hot) and that's all you really need.

Hey you are doing awesome with this gaming and i agree with the others. This is one of the few games that is doing a awesome job of blending humor and sex, and also just overall having fun. So i can't wait for the next update and also glad now you can use old saves. Gotta ask what will we see next.

C'mon now your games are amazing I like me some thicc robots.

Eh... I wouldn't say so. It's a step in the right direction, but the execution is flawed. For starters, they don't really do anything besides waste an enemy's turn, and there's basically no gameplay incentive to do one yourself. It's a bad idea to make going for sexual content a bad move, like with the "see sex scenes when you lose" thing you mentioned.

I also think they're a bit too long for how frequent they come up. The sexual content isn't doing it's job if it's being skipped over. Instead, scenes should be faster and auto progress, with the option to stay in a certain animation loop.
