It goes away on its own sometimes too if you leave them alone for several turns

There's two broken states. I forgot the names for either but one is more a temporary break, I think spirit broken is more permanent.

There is an item that resets them though. I think it even resets virginity.

So, I figured out why the coalitions are always against you, even if you haven't done much or attacked many people. I thought it was calculated mostly off of how much of a threat you are military/size-wise and diplomacy was only a minor contributor.

It's actually the complete opposite. And the AI spreads rumours around at random so much that your diplomacy is always in the gutter. But, I somehow got blessed by RNGesus in this last run. No bad rumours spread about me and suddenly everyone loves me. No coalitions against me the entire run, no matter what I did or how strong/large I got.

This reminds me of how something like half of the events that penalize you with worse reputation for fucking up or doing the corrupt thing don't improve your reputation when you succeed or do the benevolent thing. Feels like fixing that would be little effort and make your international reputation a lot more determinant of your actions instead of totally random.

They can form against other countries too actually it's a lot more common to see if you get something like two large factions that are constantly fighting back and forth while a decent number of smaller factions still exist.

In my experience, I've only seen that once. Other than that 1 time, they always go after me. I've often gotten Coalitions against me on the same turn war is enabled. I think the AI just fucking hates me.

You had coalitions? I've never even seen any. I float around banging all the girls to the point I think most refuse to fight me for that very reason. I've swallowed at least 5 different factions before, and not a single person budged towards me.

Coalitions seem way more common and way nastier on higher difficulties. They're pretty easy on normal difficulty and kind of rare. When I started upping the difficulty I'd get them all the time and they came a lot sooner and were wayyyy more dangerous. I almost had to abandon my territory completely to survive one once.

Yeah, I'm cool with their difficulty. I usually play on the highest or 2nd highest because this game's too easy otherwise. I just wish they were more predictable about how they trigger. I know the hows/whys now, though. Just a matter of editing events to make more sense.

I swear there are dozens of Exploration events where you get three choices "Do the right thing.", "Do the wrong thing.", or "Walk Away." Doing the wrong thing consistently gives you reputation decrease, leaving feels like a crapshoot between negative reputation and nothing, but usually nothing. And then do the right thing only rarely gives a reputation increase.

Like that one where you can find a shining gem on the road and can either sell it or turn it into the police. If you sell it, you get caught by the owner who lost it and they accuse you of being a thief, then you lose reputation. If you rightfully turn it into the police, nothing happens.

Yeah, I just straight up don't explore anymore. The good stuff seems meh, but the bad stuff can fuck up your run. Just doesn't seem worth it. There are events that can injure you for days or delete all your money. I can't even remember the best reward from an exploration event, but I know it wasn't worth that risk.

There's well over 200 events you can get (I've played this game through so many times and I'm still getting Exploration events I've never seen.) and sometimes you can get really shitty results. I usually get nothing out of it, but sometimes some nice little bonuses like 1000, 3000, or 5000 gold or soldiers. On rare occasion some nice reputation/favor with other countries and characters. I don't normally get the bad results anymore, since I better know what options not to take in events I've already seen, now.

Definitely feels like there's more to do in Exploration if you play as a girl. Most events seem to be written for sending females out to explore.

Also, if you explore specific areas, the Hot Springs of Old Hell, Stray Home of Mayohiga(Chen's house), and the Rabbit Village (Generic events and a plethora of Tewi mini-events, both event sets entirely repeatable.) have a fair number of sexytime events.

Waterfall also has a tiny number of repeatable sex events with generic tengu. There's also the cemetary with some non-repeatable events where you fuck a tiddy-Necromancer (once), though it's pretty out-and-out rape-y.

Hot Springs, Stray Home, and Rabbit Village are definitely the most interesting ones. Now if only they weren't spread so far apart on the trails and two of them weren't inside utterly massive sections of territory to take over before you're entirely safe behind relay points. Takes getting to their content to be a little annoying.

In my last run Sakuya as an officer went out to explore and found 100k gold treasure.
And it happened with war phase yet to start.
Can't say it was that big of a game-changer though.
I spent it all on top officers, male slaves, buildings, investment and training and still got steamrolled when touhos rushed multiple armies at one of my chokepoints.
Should've spent some on diplo :cautious:

I think I'd have a low reputation anyway. Apparently there is one where a girl is missing some kind of robe or something? I forget what exactly it was, but you can give it back, take it anyway, or you can say "Hey, isn't this porn?" and stick your dick in her. In fact, a lot of good events have the best outcome if you fuck them. The kappa girl that keeps asking for some kind of business license will eventually start expecting you to start pounding her every time she asks for one. It's a little amusing.

That tends to be the case when you do the end turn events where to use the Kappa one for example you still can get something out of the sex choice. But at least from what I've experienced most of the exploration events are like a 50/50 on whether the sex option causes something negative or is just the porn scene with no other reward and aside from the unique exploration places they have no follow up. I feel like a lot of the exploration events would've benefited from working as triggers for special random end turn events. For example the one where you help a mother and daughter with their restaurant and you can either blackmail them or ask for no reward, that would've been a perfect justification to add an event where you get a bit of money and a sex scene from them with them getting more into it after a few repeats or if you didn't blackmail them you could eat there to restore your characters strength and stamina or lower the injury timer.

Was the animal one exploration? I remember saving a bunny, and if you do, she keeps showing up as a girl to fuck the shit out of you, eventually ending in her falling in love with you.

This a thousand times. I've actually been trying to setup such triggers into longer-lasting event-chains I made myself.

A female-targeted version of the Tengu chain based off of that one-time exploration event where a male Tengu blackmails you, the restaurant you mentioned, a longer event-chain for the Hunter for both player genders, maybe just cut the hunter and remix it into an actual stand-alone event-chain where you can just keep re-challenging him/her and the sex gradually ramps up from hands, bj, actual sex, etc. as you win/lose, there's also an equal-gender exploration event where you find a wounded maid on the road and help her home.

If you help the maid home home as a man, she'll repay you at night with sexytimes. Do it as a girl and the master of the mansion will get you to work as his maid, pay you, and fuck you. I could see turning this into an event-chain similar to the one where a female player works as a barmaid and gets fucked by the owner.

And so on.

But I'm still so bad with coding, and... I have an issue where whenever I work on porn, I just end up masturbating to what I'm writing and get nothing done. So, I haven't really gotten anywhere. :V

The gender specific ones kinda get into a strange situation when you remember futas exist. How does one trigger for either when you're both?

If I had to guess, either check for the actual genitals or outward appearance (to account for traps). In the former case, I'd assume it would just check if you have the needed equipment and run accordingly. Same for the latter, except checking gender traits instead. I would assume the former since that's more straightforward and the only reason I can think of for the latter above that is for event variations where your appearance doesn't match what you have. This might depend on the event in question given though, since this isn't one single person's work.
