HTML Degrees of Lewdity [v0.5.6.8] [Vrelnir]

Yeah, you can't really be a true Alpha in this game.
It's meant to be that way, no matter how high you go, there will always be a barrier that separates you from 'em.

that would be okay if they got other villains like we are jumped on the street constantly, and you could make other people in other parts of society be the bad guys, the game has a criminal underworld that could be used for that, the way they did it is just a stump in progression, I don't care about being an "alpha" by the way the whole idea is stupid to me but I don't like being a pushover, like a school bully I get it, some people never learn and will keep trying, but Baily is literally a money grab so that bothers me more, let me kick their ass so bad that I'm responsible for having to provide for the orphanage(with the help of the other orphans of course), and at least diminish the number of times they show up like to once a month instead of every week, it feels like the game has no progression the way they made it and that is just not fun for me.

Indeed, you can be the queen bee of the school but you can't fight back when your glasses are going to be taken?
Dev needs to see some basic stuff that should have basic actions~~~

My character apparently has a penis in most sex scenes in the latest version. Outside of these scenes, the penis doesn't exist, and looking at the save file confirms that there is no penis. Despite this, other characters will stroke it during sex.

NPCs will no longer attempt to stroke a female PC's penis.

I swear to god, I played this game like 6 times and never once have I managed to make an npc drink feMC's breastmilk or even suck her breasts. Why is it so damn impossible?

Agreed, I totally get you. The game has no katharsis with its story and in how you can't deal with these numerous smug asshole npcs in any satisfying way.

Because that's supposed to be the point of the game, like it or not. Bailey is a fucking criminal, while you are just some barely legal kid, so I don't think that you would just be able to deal with Bailey that easily.

"Some barely legal kid" that can be earning up to 16k GBP per month, somehow. How about paying that instead to Whitney's gang to beat Bailey to death and bury them in the orphanage garden. Or provoke Kylar into stabbing Bailey in the liver. Maybe they have friends that would come looking, maybe some consequences later, but dealing with the person would be doable. Bailey is almost always alone, without a weapon. Bailey isn't like a mob boss surrounded by bodyguards.

Bailey even has some control over the fucking mayor of the town, do you seriously think killing them wouldn't make things worse?
There's a narrative and a gameplay reason for Bailey to keep being a threat, so complaining about that is pointless. Better point out some other problems with the game

That's just gamey stuff though; it's just easy to break the game and earn shitloads of money once you know the best jobs or places to do it, but earning that much is not tied to the narrative at all since it's still a misery simulator in concept.

Maybe a fix for that would be to have a proper hardcore mode more difficult all around: reduce the money that can be earned (or exploited), remove the cap on Bailey's payments and let it increase infinitelly, etc.

Then again, the game wo0uld really benefit from having long-term "goals" or endings if you will: objectives that we can work towards and "win" the game. One of those endings could very well be you overthrowing Bailey and saving the orphanage but my guess is that since the game is in theory very early in development (despite the huge amount of content) Vrelnir didn't have time to implement those endings yet... tough I dunno if he ever plans to, or if DoL will always be just a sandbox with no proper endings.

Exactly. Once you get to experience some of the punishments for failing to pay, there's lot of implications that Bailey has lots of connections with some powerful or unsavory characters from the city.

Well, I kinda like that the game doesn't have those goals. Because then the story would also need to have some updates, meaning plus one thing to worry about, while currently it's not a concern

It seems like the mayor would have an interest in seeing Bailey dead in the hands of another. If Bailey had dirt on everyone, surely some of them would work together to get rid of Bailey.
And besides some of characters are barely legal, their minds are still of teenagers. It wouldn't be surprising if some of them killed Bailey during a rash action if provoked. It might make things worse but that's for the Dev to write it out if he chooses to.

Well, if you go on game wiki and look at Bailey's page... no, that won't happen. Also, I do believe that DoL won't have any deaths either

There are random events at the orphanage that has a positive or negative effect on the orphans' "Rebelliousness" - this stat has no noticeable effects as of now I think, but could be an indication that a future uprising at the orphanage is planned. That's just conjecture on my part though, might be for something completely different.

 

[ViviX12]

wouldn't Avery be able to possibly "buy" the MC out of orphanage?

 

[Raf-Raf]

Nah, Avery sees the MC as another one of their playdates.

 

[buggzy313]

anyone know any sugarcube things to get it so remy wont fuck with alexes farm and wont try kidnaping me

 

[Lindazana]

I have to ask, why is it that the Great Hawk can't help or find you when abducted to the farm? it's right at the edge of the marsh afterall. And you'd think being at max love/relationship with the hawk, they go out looking for you. You're outside all day, not hiding, they should eventually fly over and see you, or if you have the harpy mutation you should be able to bird-cry out for them, either at the farm, or when trying to flee it.

It can always be an optional thing like... well, pretty much most of the game's content. It would definitely fit design wise.

Players already can ignore and never even encounter certain events or places, as well as not interacting or progressing with most of the named NPC's. So in that same spirit, you wouldn't have to worry about endings if you don't want to; some players who want to can try the challenge, while others who prefer to continue in the sandbox can do so as well.

Perhaps it's just a matter of semantics: calling these "endings" might give the wrong idea (although taking over the orphanage would certainly feel like an ending) but they would be basically new quests much like the current ones that you can progress with each named NPC or locations like the farm, with the difference being that those would be prove more challenging for PC's to pull off, but would have some kind of big pay-off and feel like you "beat" the game.

That's just conjecture on my part though, might be for something completely different.

Both Rebelliousness and Hope affect the random events at the Orphanage, and you need a positive Rebelliousness value to have a chance to get the event that supplies one of the Antiques for the Museum. It's also harder to raise Rebelliousness, as there are fewer events that raise it and more that lower it compared to Hope.
