Unreal Engine Breeders of the Nephelym [v0.761.7] [DerelictHelmsman]

[AlecDragonKing]

I think a lot of people are getting too used to the frustration that comes with each new quote unquote 'Update' with this game. This newest one is simply a hotfix, no content has been added. Just a few sliders in graphics, some bugfixes and minor improvements to notifications. Really at this point more meat has to be added to this game like additional quests, more variations, enough male variants to plug in the gaps of the hybrid system, more npc's for the town, more clothing options, new area's which I know derelict has planned for, (You don't put in the effort to make a whole undersea area just for a bloody clam.)


Derelict said earlier on in the year that he would be putting updates out monthly and of course we know how that turned out. I am really convinced he just does not want to work on this game anymore and is just keeping an IV going to keep that patreon and subscribe money flowing. I have seen what people have said who have actually worked with him on this game and they have tesitifed how much work he can do on his own after a weekend of work so I know this lackluster effort it's just because he cut off all the people who were helping him out.

I just get very disappointed knowing that and seeing a four bullet point update.

Pretty much same thoughts here. TwT

Since I don't have the game's source code in front of meh, so I can't mod expand the game completely but I'm reworking the "variations" section 4 "Foxens" atleast, which is quite easy 2 do after U Console unlock the creator editor 4 characters in main title screen, its just sum features are locked because I never fully played the game LUL. X3
Like here's a quick view of wat I'm doing 2 the foxs. :3
Also sumwat of proper naming like "FoxyWhiteWater", break down of naming "Foxy" character type, "White"for skin color basically, "Water" What element the fox spirit is from (I could went with color name but I prefer elements instead since it goes better with game's atmosphere). :3

I also found out dat U can delete(Dis option/action/method may be unstable because I'm still testing it) all or selected the presets in "(Game Folder)\OBF\CharacterPresets" and replace em with UR own regardless of wat names U given em when using the character creator/editor. :3

Tip:Watch out 4 the files with "_Ex_" in em, as they'er 4 Exotic characters. >w<

Yeah this game has. Alot of potential but the dev is just going the triple A studio way of just hotifixing the bare basics while keeping the toys that bring money functional, as well as being minimally of the minimum active to keep the Patreon on. Im still bothered about stuff like the saves compatibility problems and specially the whole "No balls for futas" BS.

Frankly I mentioned on keep playing (or at least implying it, on my most recent post) but truth is that after diving quite a bit on modded Skyrim and seeing the crazy possibilities there, as well as the ones you can make on Unreal Engine 5 itself, bruh, I'm no longer sure if investing time on this game is worth for the many limitations this guy forces on you.

The base of it it's still nice, if you consider 2020 standards and while giving lots of concessions. But as of 2025? Frankly been a year and 4 months since Derelict made a public uodate and I get the feel that if in that time you try to recreate BotN by yourself in Unreal 5 youll get a better luck. So.... IDK

Creator mode is nice and all but again the options, while feeling initially diverse are still too limited. Just a pair of hairstyles, only dudes get balls and of course they can only be givers and no anal of any kind.

For a PC game this feels way too limited frankly, specially by nowadays' standards

I have a question I bought the fox house but then the cat selling those houses disappeared and I have no idea where to find her?

She's probably on the "Daily Toy" locking thingy. If you see an NPC dissapearing, look for them in there, you should find them.
Good thing? You get to fuck them for free.
Bad thing? You can't access their unique trades or interactions for that day.
XD

Okay, thanks for answering but I kind of burned out already. So many game mechanics are poorly explained and the game being open world means 80% of the time I am just running around from point A to B hoping to make some progress. Since this is clearly supposed to be a managerial game I feel like its a waste of time. Great idea but not my cup of tea honestly.

Would anyone be willing to try and compress the download? Because this is getting ridiculous: 5 GBs isn't downloaded easily or quickly, and if one has a shaky net connection, it may as well take literal days to download, when all it takes is to compress the file to make infinitely more manageable to download.

The red text is fun and all, but it's hard to read on my phone.
Using it to punctuate certain things is fine, but too much is obtuse.

So, we need to ask that big question.
Is it even worth pirating? Does the headache of having to download a uh...bullet point warrant it's attention?

For me, this is a no.

Yeah, I feel you, one of the many reasons I'm thinking if dropping this game is how unsatisfying the gameplay loop feels unless you cheat the crap out of the gameplays, but still, even on that regard, other games manage to do the same thing far better.

The dev of this one is a fan of Soulslikes who seem to not play anything else but that so that should tell you something XD

He's like Neymar, got rich and its not giving a fuck about his job anymore. Thing is, ppl need to stop giving away money, its not exclusive from this game. I have been seeing alot of similar cases these times. We need to stop supporting these mf so they get back to work. And start to support new projects that deserve attention and projects that are being developed

How do we send this message on patreon, without supporting him?
I don't care about getting banned off his page if it means saying even one paragraph of ire and ilk.

Couldn't said it better myself! It's what I'm doing recently. Giving the best support I can to the games and projects I like while cutting ties with rotten ones. Also started some smol projects of my own. But they're still too green to even mention XD

 

[AkagiVoid]

Meh, just gonna drop wat I got, my motivation 4 further modding dis game with mar npc variants was trampled on when I seen the site moderator/s being 2 stingy with my posts in dis thread 4 meh going a little off topic I guess. >w>


Here's wat I got so far, just extract, find "OBF" folder, drag/cut -n- paste* 2 game's folder, when prompt with merge press OK/YES, and enjoy a few mar Foxen fluffs. :3
Link: ZIP. ^w^
