Java Corrupted Saviors [Release 58] [CSDev]

[Tir]

Finally got through my first playthrough... And turns out its impossible to do a triple distortion (Temptation, Aversion and Rampancy) together. Ended up getting temptation and rampancy to succeed.

Is it intentional that if the chosen is rampaging, it only happens in a single turn, and they don't sync up their breaks. so I would do a inseminate on the aversion, try to link the rampancy, but the aversion chosen would get the bonus for a single turn and the rampancy chosen doesn't get their duration shortened. (or vice versa).

congratulations on your first win!! And a distortion based win at that, that’s really impressive in my opinion


As for your problem with trying for that triple distortion combination, it is possible, albeit at the cost of it being very tricky. Distortions with the opposite vulnerability focuses tend to synergize well together, Aversion - Temptation/ Negotiation - Rampancy but are a little bit more difficult when you try to add a different third distortion into the mix. A Temptation/Aversion/Rampancy combination in particular is one of the hardest imo since your defiler + options are far more limited and you have to deal with the rampancy chosen rampaging at the drop of a hat.

Aversion + Rampancy chosen are a bit difficult to win the final battle since their requirements are opposed to each other, Aversion chosen rely on being able to make orgies and rampancy chosen will inevitably break up orgies on their own with their rampaging so you can see why that would be difficult in the final battle. it’s more manageable if the final chosen in the team is undistorted so you can just use her as a link to form orgies through something like sodomize + and a drain commander.

In my personal experiences, if you want to involve a rampancy chosen in an orgy with an aversion chosen, especially for the final battle, you need to avoid raising the HATE of the rampancy chosen as much as you possibly can, this is easier if you trained forsaken in your roster or nowadays certain items but on the first loop it really requires paying attention to the team dynamic and whittling down the aversion requirements for that distorted chosen.

I don’t know your specific team dynamic but from the distortion combination standpoint for the final battle, I would use a parasitism commander with multiple charges, start with the temptation chosen, move on to the rampancy chosen, before capturing the aversion chosen, all the while I raised the INJU on the rampancy chosen as much as I can, avoiding raising HATE since the orgy would eventually make it surpass INJU anyway. EDIT: And use broadcast + on the temptation and rampancy chosen, this is more manageable since the HATE increase is less intense compared to inseminate (at least before 10k hate)


Since this is your first play through I would advise playing and experimenting a bit more before doing triple distortion victories so you can grow more accustomed to distortions and the final battle in general, it would help you strategize even better than you currently are.



As for your last question, I’m a bit confused what you mean by “bonuses” and not synching up breaks, since the only time I associate breaks is with vulnerabilities. So apologies that I can’t help out with this part too much haha. I need to go to work soon but if you explain that part a bit more I’ll try to help once im home though, hope you continue to have fun with the game!

As Kalloi said, it is possible, but it does require that all three Chosen are capable of the same distortion. With the ability to generate pre-broken Chosen comes ineligibility for whatever distortion their pre-broken vulnerabilities would disqualify if they were broken in game instead. For example, in 39, I had a triple aversion, but every other distortion run had at least one Chosen ineligible for the distortion I chose to go after from the start. If they are eligible, it will be listed under "distortion plan" and what you would want to look for, once you have all three Chosen, is for a distortion that appears there on all three.

Thanks, this was the earliest start snapshot i had:

I cleared it by starting with faith and did
1x capture; then threaten+, letting stigma rampage
once captured, run edge down for Temptation
Tricky part was faith was bitter enemies with both stigma and edge, so they would kill each other given the chance.


and I ended it in this:

Ah, i am probably using the wrong terminology, sorry. I think you did answer it though:

when the Aversion is in inseminate mode at X turn (say 5)
If I try to link the Rampancy chosen up with Inseminate+ with 8 Turns,
What happens is that Rampancy will go on a rampage instead with 8 Turns
and Aversion gets the Inseminate+ for a single turn.

Turn 5:
Aversion Inseminate -5
Action: Rampancy Inseminate -8

T5 Results:
Aversion - Inseminate+ (Relationship bonus applied)
Rampancy - Rampage (No bonuses applied)

Turn 6:
Aversion Inseminate -4
Rampancy Rampage -7

For real, I think relations should have a hard cap of sorts. Right now my headcanon explanation is that those 10+ siblings some of mine had are non-blood related, but I got nothing for 8 offsprings.

Actually, could Chosen stop aging at one moment (like, when they got power or something), which would give them a time to build a big family?

I haven't implemented a hard cap, but I have significantly toned down the odds of very large families showing up.

The Chosen do, in fact, stop aging once they get their powers. And their innate protection against pregnancy doesn't apply to sex with their one true love. Once it becomes possible for Chosen to be married to each other, I suppose that should mean that you should be able to get them pregnant by turning their spouses into Forsaken... But we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Haha, I found a fun bug. You can create some really invalid chosen by doing direct input personality settings and abusing cancel. It still sets all the personality values before you start cancelling, so you can have a team of chosen with all 0s, all 50s, and all 80s.

edit: You can play then but it's super buggy.

Drat, I found this bug as well while working on this update, and I was hoping it wouldn't get noticed before I got the fix out. The good news is that the next version will allow you to legitimately make Chosen like this, and it hopefully shouldn't be buggy.

Oh, this isn't related to the rest of your post, but it looks like you ran into a bug with the Distortion Plan system. It shouldn't be letting you set Faith on the Aversion Distortion Plan when she has an Innocence Break. I'll make sure to fix that in the next version.

Ah, i am probably using the wrong terminology, sorry. I think you did answer it though:

when the Aversion is in inseminate mode at X turn (say 5)
If I try to link the Rampancy chosen up with Inseminate+ with 8 Turns,

Turn 5:
Aversion Inseminate -5
Action: Rampancy Inseminate -8

T5 Results:
Aversion - Inseminate+ (Relationship bonus applied)
Rampancy - Rampage (No bonuses applied)

Turn 6:
Aversion Inseminate -4
Rampancy Rampage -7

This is an interesting edge case. Strictly speaking, it isn't the Inseminate+ that's making the Rampancy Chosen rampage - it's just that her HATE level was high enough. This triggers at the start of her turn, so she never properly gets hit by Inseminate+, so she doesn't get her surround duration shortened either. Because it's an ambiguous situation, it seems like it should be resolved in the way that's more favorable to the player, but it's really situational whether you'd prefer to have her rampage longer (in order to take more damage from future Rampages) versus having her stop sooner (so that she can be targeted again).

 

[Tir]

I definitely benefited from it, although having to keep using a commander to keep her rampaging was a limitation.
I was expecting either no relationship bonus applied to both or relationship bonus applied and turn drop, but yeah.

Interestingly, that reminded me. Is it intentional that the round ends when you do nothing on the turn when both evac and ext is at 100% and rampancy is still in the sky? (I would still have another capture for example, intending to continue the rampage once she comes down.)

 

[Nemo de Nemo]

So in the final battle: Aversion is instant KO with a long enough orgy reduced baced on how many times the chosen was comatose in the current loop, Negotiation damages resolve with the special action and is boosted by repeated negotiations, Temptation relies on hitting a pleasure target and using the distortion action to KO which is reduced similar to aversion distortion.... The only one that confuses me is Rampancy since it does resolve damage per turn in rampage but I've never managed to get the damage in a singular turn to increase from 4 or whatever value it was. Is this on purpose with the focus being to send the chosen in a long enough rampage to break them? If so what does the rampancy % actually do for the player?

If both are 100%, only a surround or capture can stop the battle from ending unless it is the final battle of a loop, in which case the other Chosen can kill the captured or surrounded Chosen with differing probabilities based on how close they are in relationship.

Oh interesting. FWIW I would have also preferred personality changes not resetting a bunch of stuff like name and family. Was working on homage characters and had to redo those a lot x_x

 

[Celerarity]

Is it crazy to idly wonder if some day we'll get a way to cut down our forsaken management without consigning them to the breeding pits? Like what if they did a really good job and you like them but also you don't want to keep scrolling past them all the time because you have more powerful versions. Too bad there isn't some farm we could let them run free on.

Is this game really text only? No ui or pictures? If the writing really is as good as everyone says you should try to remake the game in hmtl/renpy whatever and add art. So many similar games receive a huge amount of money per month.

The writing is pretty good imo and there is a portrait pack system with a with a portrait pack not only by the developer, but a variety of portrait packs made by various members of the community, it’s all in the original post so I recommend playing the game first before saying anything else

What does a portrait pack mean? Only a single picture for each character?

Each character randomly generated has a name and attached to the character is a portrait folder, the game will cycle through 9 different expressions(so 9 portraits) depending on the emotions of the character in the game, the folder can also have portraits inside them for different situations so for example a character can have a magical girl type of portrait in battle and a normal looking girl in normal human events.

A portrait pack has a lot of different portraits for each character, there’s a really good one that comes with the game included, and there’s other portrait packs made by Community members that are more robust vary in style so you can pick based on your own preference, in the “EXTRAS” part of the original post there’s a link to a post by a user that has a pretty good description of the current packs so you can take a look there for more information

So I think I found a bug with the custom scenes with the heroines. So far I've been able to reproduce it even on completely fresh campaigns as well. I get through the first fight, grab Psychic Reading, Approach the heroine, Position, Lay Heroine down, Wait, forever stuck with a highlighted "Wait" button.

Not sure if it's relevant, but the body I choose is Male, Bovine horns, Bat wings. (Typical demonic edgelord because I'm extremely original)


Once I click the Wait button, it just stays highlighted and can't be clicked again. Along with that, no further lines of dialogue or actions are shown.

Edit: After trying out other actions, they seem to work, but the lockup still happens for laying the heroine down. Regardless of if it's the first choice or a later one.

Second Edit: Also found a typo. Not sure where to report typo bugs but...

But there literally is a farm we can let them occupy. The breeding pits. :|

Yeah but they can't run around those, they can only be interred within them.

Ignore my comment, I was just being a derp.

 

[RedMakyura]

Damn, that game is hard!

Second try at Single Play (first one was miserable, i didn't even got to unlock sex actions by day 50)

By lurking, i've understood enough for a second try. Although, i dun goofed, and had only around 5 days to have a Total Break.
I can only got 1 by day 50.

So now, i'm in a pickle, and kinda want to win on the day 50.

My question is: If i manage (which seems that it will be hard) to bring the resolve of 1 Chosen to 0%, while another has been killed, will that turn into an instant win?

Kinda trying left and right, and i fear that while i try to bring one to 50, her beloved partner will still kill her.
But i do not know when she can kill her.
