HTML Degrees of Lewdity [v0.5.3.5] [Vrelnir]

[kliveR]

Playing Degrees of Lewdity with mods for the first time. Plus/BEEESSS/Hikari prebuilt version, no frills or anything. Started chargen and I notice that all breast sizes past flat clip through the default dress. Is this a known/fixable issue or should I just pick a different config?

Get sports bra. It kinda helps if you have an enormous breast.

 

[Nexor6]

Unfortunately,yes. For named NPCs,there is preg. content for Alex,Black wolf and Great hawk.

why unfortunately

Mmm... Pregnancy fetishish tears are yummy.

why unfortunately

Not sure how it's implemented here since I turned off pregnancy asap, but usually pregnancy as a game mechanic is either purely aesthetic (meh but not horrible), a source of annoying debuffs, a thing that requires annoying micro management, or just a cause of reduced quality of life. Judging by how many other mechaniics are handed, I'm comfortable betting it's the latter two.

BRO, I am literally the HATER in question

 

[Karkhel]

so did they add pregnancy already? both for main character for female and npcs if playing as male?

This is in response to what EmDotRand has said but they don't care about this fetish so I'm not gonna tag them like a maniac, but I will tag the person who was asking about the pregnancy.


It's honestly one of the better preg systems out there. There is still a lot of work to do, but its miles ahead a lot of games that are supposedly themed around it (fucking hazumi garbage ass game). For one there are reactions to the PC getting preggies, there are consequences AFTER pregnancy not just during it. Someone can refuse to use a condom and fail to cum outside or just not care (you'd be surprised by how rare this feature is in porn games and how rarely it actually even works). Bunch of comments and flavor surrounding it is a big draw. Oh and male characters can get pregnant as well if they do certain things in game to unlock it if that's your thing. There are already plenty of custom events in regards to pregnancy, either pre or post or during, from generic npcs its mostly comments or reacting to pregnancy fame but named npcs get very specific events, with more to come.

The real mvp is X-Change mod with genderswap pills that make this into a dangerous mini game, either prolonging the pills or making them permanent depending on your settings. Some named npcs get pill events. Btw X-Change mod is based of DoL plus mod not vanilla so it has all the extra goodies that entail that. It's on modding discord under smaller mods, but it has a decent amount of content with the pills.

Problem with a lot of sandobox games is they either make pregnancy super shallow (girls life, though to be honest it is in the plans to make it more advanced its just waaaay further on the priorities list, at least 2 years in the future maybe) or take ACTUAL FUCKING 9 in game months with now way to shorten it like About it. Or have no reactions from almost anyone and it feels like only your character noticed they are pregnant if that.

Additional consideration is how much development time and effort it sucks up that could've been put elsewhere

 

[MRN64]

Lets be real guys all of the discussions about what should or shouldnt be ingame or what is or isnt a waste of time all boils down to how much you like what is added and nothing more. Its not a waste of time because its not interesting or done well its a waste of time because it doesnt cater to your tastes. Everyone somehow expects the game to be hand tailored specifically for them for some reason. Might as well read every set of patch notes and complain whenever your favorite character gets less scenes added than others. Its all just incoherent whining at the end of the day really.

The most ironic part of the whole thing is that if there is something that these people complain they want added like full on furry mechanics or something like a fully simulated urinary tract they would be celebrating in the streets while telling everyone that complains its a great addition. Just be happy interesting mechanics are being added and the game is still being developed.

 

[Arkus86]

To add to this discussion my two cents, I'm not a big fan of pregnancy content in general, but here it is already implemented leagues ahead of most other games with pregnancy content. In v0.5.

And while yes, it means the development time is more spread out between all the various features... it's already in the game, so the choices are either leaving it in a half-finished state, half-asing it, both of which is arguably worse than not making it in the first place, or trying to make it the best pregnancy mechanic they can.

 

[MRN64]

The argument the people are saying isnt that it should be abandoned but that it should have never been implemented in the first place usually for the reasoning that it was a niche set of content that people didnt actually want. Which is pretty silly considering whenever they did a poll about what content people wanted to see it was always at the top of the list. It is just another complaint in the long list of complaints that all boil down to "this isnt my fetish so its bad." Instead of seeing new mechanics and gameplay elements added to toy around with people instead want to complain that it is stealing from the content they like but thats really just not true. All work put into the game improves the game at a basic level which is something that everyone benefits from even if its not directly.

lol yeah its crazy to me people complain about pregnancy mechanic and it "taking dev time away" while theres content for fucking wasp sex or leeches etc which i always turn off..

for me a decent pregnancy mechanic is a must-have in any good porn game. Otherwise all the sexual acts feel quite meaningless and the potential mechanic of cum in/out is irrelevant

Kindly specify who did what instead of throwing about these sweeping generalizations. Alternatively explain when any of this happened because as of the last exchange:

• Besides one person who said it could away from other content, nobody said to remove pregnancy outright.
• You assumed a shared motivation (this isn't my fetish, therefore bad) when once again only one person expressed this.
• I exclusively looked at the game mechanics pregnancy introduces and gave a neutral stance on the fetish while you claim the opposite happened.

Besides that, there's fetishes I actually like that still make me groan because of how it was done, (Eg. Bukkake making you slippery in a platformer or forcing you to clean up in order to interact with NPCs in RPGs) and fetishes I hate but give enough utility to justify keeping it on (Eg. Dirt coverage in LonaRPG makes enemies less likely to rape you due to reducing your sexy score at the cost of risking infection if you go too long without bathing.) If the upsides at least compete with the downsides I'd at least concider turning it on. Does being pregnant make sex risky to you you or your potential children? Do we have to deal with cramping, reduced athletic score, or mornign sickness? How's the interactions with your children? Can you take them with you on your escapades? This kind of stuff could be interesting or remain as an extra box to untick when starting a run depending on how it's implimented.

Anyone that has been in this thread longer than a week has seen dozens of people filter in and out complaining about how preg content is a waste of time and oftentimes they explicitly say it is because nobody wanted it. Just look back in the thread especially during the time it was taking for them to make it when it delayed the release for a good while. It seemed like half the damn posts back then were people complaining.

Sometimes an argument or statement isnt specifically directed at a person or post but at a general concept or idea people keep perpetuating. Sometimes when things are said that sounds an awful lot like what those people have said they get lumped in with them. Not every post is directly addressed to specific posts.

Tbf it'd be very hard to say that nobody wanted it, because preg kink ppl have a thing in common with linux users

That's one question answered. Good on ye.

So your defense for using a generalization fallacy is... People use generalization fallacies? I don't get that logic. Not antagonizing either I'm genuinely confused here.

I think one of the more accurate estimations about how prevalent players wanted preg content was / is(?) the comments underneath the blog posts.
I do not remember reading more than maybe 5-10 posts akin to "When preg content?" underneath each blog post, which usually had hundreds of comments...

People spreading misinformation just because they don't like the fact that it is something that was wanted heavily. Nothing new there.

 

[MRN64]

Its just another coping mechanism for why everyone ELSE is wrong and how everything they like or dont like is somehow objectively right even when it makes no sense or has no evidence. Its not about the results of any polls or discussions because thats all fake. Its not about what people are saying because its all lies. Its not about how well received something was they are all lying. Its uncanny how this kind of thinking overlaps quite solidly with certain circles in reality. The kinds of people that unironically argue like this are the kinds of people that probably deny the moon landing or believe in flat earth theory. Its not about having arguments that make sense its about having arguments that they can believe in even if they are batshit insane because it makes them feel good.

Its also really funny how commenting on a general trend that we are seeing play out right now in this thread that has happened multiple times over the last year is somehow a "generalization fallacy." I LITERALLY said that the kinds of people that argue about this kind of stuff constantly argue that nobody wants it and then IMMEDIATELY people screech and post about how nobody actually wants it and it was all some kind of secret plot to undermine the game.

Hi.

v0.5.0.5 Android + BEEESSS + Kaervek's Community Sprites + Firemod. Start page streched icon appears to be a issue with outdated Firemod not meshing perfectly well with newer version, but no functional glitches noted.

The sky is very pretty in this update, delightful.

Personally ambivalent regarding pregnancy content, satisfied that content is still developing regularly instead of eternal hiatus or masses of do-nothing filler. Option of sterility through contraceptives abuse for feats-friendly disabling of content could be a solution for those not keen on it.

 

[EmDotRand]

... Maybe I should ask one of the guys that showed interest in conversing. Presumably this happened to the others:



That leaves Karkhel. Could you elaborate on those the consequences after birth your mentioned? Got my femboy implanted with a wasp egg and wanted to know what I'm in for. I'm also looking out for the aforementioned flavor text, but I'm a week in and so far it's just stuff like morning sickness and Dr Harper offering to deliver it for free in exchange for a live audience. Is it just a "wait for it" ordeal?
