Java Lilith's Throne [v0.4.11.3 Hotfix] [Innoxia]

[teddidiah]

Weirdly CoC2, a game with actual writing in it, breezes through the fact you can have a variety of party members all with distinct personalities and a number ranging from just yourself to two others (plus a guest, where applicable) with aplomb.

Weird.

The easy answer, in this case, would be to make the barely-there party members that follow you around just... not proc these things unless the player calls them in. They do something else in the background, whatev. And, of course, to establish a framework that you call upon universally instead of... having to do it one by one?

whatev, inno

Yeah, it's almost like those companions in CoC2 are very rigidly defined in terms of gender, body type, and genitalia. Fucking weird. It's also like those companions and events have a litany of people working on them and coding them into the game. That definitely doesn't have anything to do with it.

But yeah, support for a creative project is supposed to be, "That sounds like a cool idea, here's five bucks a month to help you work on that idea full-time."

I think you're right here. And the issue is that everyone that's been around enough projects can see what a full-time dev looks like and what a dev putting in 30% of full-time looks like. They then get agitated because they feel like they helped a dev achieve "full time" and the output is not actually full time output.

1/50, but yes, for now. There'll probably be some easy/reliable way to access them for the next full release though.

With the new game I played, It was more likely for me to get fucked by them than muggers or prostitutes for some reason...

Enforcers are Virgin Hunters? xD (Maybe I should just let them finger me in the ass instead of re-loading everytime, nah, just gonna cheat some money to slap in their face)

 

[SordidDreams]

Inno did make the mistake of allowing her Patrons to vote on adding content to the game.

Yeah, and AFAIK the recent side content additions are a result of that. So these complaints that "she's not delivering what people have ordered" are completely baseless; that's in fact exactly what she is doing.

People tend to believe that their opinion is right and that what they want is what everyone wants.

The last actual main questline update was v3.5.2 so thats has been awhile so ya people complain its reasonable at this point.

Never said it wasn't, I personally want more story content.

Why would people want more story when they could easily have an update that lets you control the design of the hairs around the anus?
Plus, as an added bonus, 4 more colors for every outfit in the shop.
Also, why stop with demons, pegataurs, and alligators girls when you could have a slimasourus rex.
Dino-slaves are all the latest rage!

I've honestly never seen a more divided community than the one for this game. I do not know what causes it but it's the craziest shit. On the one hand you have the "inno does not wrong" crowd, then the hater, then the people who are divided between RPG and Sandbox, I've found myself on both sides of that argument for sure. I cannot bring myself to care anymore, I just want to fucking jizz into an old sock and there's way more important real life shit to argue about.

Hmmmmmm... an old sock... why didn't I thought of that.

I think it is because many of us see the potential of what the game could be.
But every clothing and orifice update makes it one version closer to it's inevitable "abandoned" tag.
I would really like to see more areas to explore and many, many more quests and eventually an end at some point.

how do you recruit companions i can't seem to figure it out thank you for the help

Who cares about the story? Gib mansion, slave management and the ability to hunt for new slaves. Oh, and slave jobs that aren't prostitution or being a maid for your landlady, what kind of economy is that where slavery is limited to house servants?

Yeah, you cant do that anymore (see changelog in the op)

Gameplay:
Companion content is now locked behind a toggle in gameplay options, and is disabled by default. No further support for companions will be added going forwards, as accounting for companion variations, both in the writing and dialogue framework, was taking a huge amount of time and slowing down the pace of the game's development too much.

 

[stuffinabox]

Bug fixes and minor content tweaks, neat. Time to wait a year for new content.

While we're at it, overhaul the combat system to be good? Or at least practical.

 

[user84]

I can't even remember when was the last time a quest or character was added in this game.

Currently, you defeat an alleyway mugger, then talk to them about the terrible hardships that lead them to become a violent larcenous rapist. Once you've got a more or less friendly relationship with them, talk to Lilaya about having a friend stay at the house while they get back on their feet. Prepare a guest room, then just go back to your new friend and invite them to stay.

You'll have to pay 100 flames a day in rent until they get a job, at which point they pay their own rent. Which is really not much of a burden if you've got any kind of slave stable going. Ten slaves working 24/7 at the Angel's Kiss will leave you with more money than you can spend (give them the Cum Addict kink and they'll even enjoy it).

If you want any of the NPCs staying at the house to accompany you, just go to their room and ask.

Really, I don't tend to use "guest" companions. Elementals are just much more powerful if you're looking for backup in a fight. Slaves give you an income. I house offspring due to being a bit of a completionist who is selective about pregnancy (ie. I tend to have a manageable number of offspring who are all full Demons or Furies). But getting buddy-buddy with randonly-generated muggers? Take their stuff, fuck the shit out of them and don't look back.

It remains to be seen what impact the discontinuation of support for companions will have.

A month or so ago.

Of course, there's the other side to that. I'd personally much prefer a version of LT with twice as many clothes and colors but with an abandoned main quest than yet another fantasy porn game with a by-the-numbers plot and mostly forgettable characters (which is what the writing in the game already is in my opinion) and little available customization. Give me clothing and orifice updates any day over another story beat I'll probably read (more likely skim through) once then speed-click my way through on every subsequent run. But if you just want another CoC (despite the existence of CoC2 and TiTS), then that's understandable.

The next public update should tie up the remaining threads in Dominion and the public update after that should begin to open up the Foloi Fields.

While we're at it, overhaul the combat system to be good? Or at least practical.

It's going to have to be done at some stage, but I'd argue the stage is after v1.0, when we have the full main quest complete. Much better to rebalance the combat and magic systems once there's an overview of the whole story.

Personally, I'd support reworking the whole "four elements" approach to the combat/magic system.
