RPGM LonaRPG [v0.9.9.1.0] [EccmA417]

[RLJFZ]

I just got back into the game since a long time, but are the special weapons (shattered katan) (false god slayer) supposed to be this... bad? like in damage terms its not even close to comparing to something like the halberd, damage aside the windup for the attacks is also massive, in combat with more than 1 enemy you are 100% getting staggered out of your attack, or am I using them wrong?

I haven't really tested False God Slayer that much since it's far too heavy (40WT, has move speed reduction and can give Lona a Vertigo debuff during the spin), its spin helps in dealing with surrounding ennemies, the block is an interesting addition but apart from that, it didn't have anything particularly special that justifies all its shortcomings (not sure if it got buffed in later update).

As for Katana, it's not meant to powercreep any existing weapon, its main uses are:
- Block/stun an attacking ennemy (the stun time, while low, is enough to cast some skill such as juicing on that stunned ennemy).
- Self-buff ATK (each successful attack increases Lona's ATK by 5, up to 35. This ATK buff isn't just limited to Katana so you can switch to another weapon after gathering the buff. The buff doesn't last long however and will quickly dissipate when moving).
- Phase through some entity (enables some strat such as making a wall of tentacles with Abomination Totem that you can phase through and get to a safe zone).
-If you're a pro samurai with good reflex and foresight, this weapon can prove to be better than all of the other weapons in 1v1.

This Katana won't help you kill as effectively as the other weapons like Saber+Dagger, Halberd and Longbow but it got the utilities that work particularly great in a mixed build of Succubus and Magic.

I just love it when games are so stupidly hard that I get screwed over in like the third mission. Literally unable to 1v1 a single bandit. Lovely game.

Story of my first time playing the game lol.

Can cocona in this ver get pregnant?

Unfortunately, no.

Someone didn't read the overview, or the games page on itch.

idk about shattered Katana, but False god slayer is extremely powerful, yes the downside is annoying, but you are immune to most staggers while using it and the damage it deals can easily mow down enemy hordes, it's even useful, altho redundant, vs single target enemies, it helped me beat two bosses

In fact, I think you need to put this situation on a realist scale and see how it goes: A malnourished teenage girl with scrawny hands and legs vs a grown ass adult bandit male that steal,eat and rape to his heart's content. Yeah, no cap.

But...bonking him in the head then cut his throat or douse him in gasoline ? Absolutely, I have read about many hookers revenge story like that irl, not the most gallant kill but it works.

 

[SimplYshiina]

Can someone confirm if Cecily and greyrat deem them as criminals they fuck them up on site? I just went in the sex bar something in the main town and they went ham

 

[captaininsignia]

Multiple new content added, and a lot of fixes as well

Thank you so much

 

[Hstby]

No. But i can make you pregnant

Yes please daddy

Do you mean Lona? if yes, then yeah, they are aggressive against you if you have low enough moral, and will outright attack you if you are a criminal

For early levels you can try to get the trap skill, it's easily one of the best skills in the game and it can hard carry you through so many fights

In fact, I think you need to put this situation on a realistic* scale and see how it goes: A sword cuts just as easily in a child's hand as it does an adult

being an adult male doesn't make your skin thicker, tougher, resistant to injuries

Based on stat, bandit share similar stat with guardmen, and guards wear at least chain mail, some wear plate armor, swords ain't doing jack unless it hurts so much the force translates to blunt trauma aka High ATK build Lona.

Or, as I said, backstab or fire, armor or DEF ain't gonna stop those

Was specifically referring to the bandit during the "save cecily" mission. I had to look up a video walkthrough to complete it. Turns out I have to stun the bandit then talk to Cecily to get her and Gray Rat to kill the bandit. The guide was fucking me over by specifically telling me to kill the bandit myself before talking to Cecily.

This game is honestly a chore to play. The combat is jank, the companion AI is braindead half the time, the missions basically require a guide or about 50 safe scums to complete, and I frankly find the stamina system this game uses to be ridiculously annoying. I'm honestly tempted just to use a cheat mod to make myself a lot stronger so I don't have to essentially AFK and hope my companions kill everything before me or Cecily dies.

Actually no i meant other nps when im with cecily and greyrat. The moment i go in they kill them but they r supposed to be a quest maybe its in their ai? Like in the slutty castle bar with golden statues they just smack them

Funny I posted a small guide about this years ago

^the early game you're supposed to use your fast thinking skill or plan ahead quite a lot. Late game when you can rack up stat then you can proceed to be the murder hobo you strive to become.
But the obvious thing is if early game Lona struggle to kill a single rat she's not gonna kill anyone any time soon.

Ah but now you're contradicting yourself, you said on a realistic scale and last I checked people don't have stats and not every single person especially bandits who would need to be sneaky and mobile is wearing high quality chainmail, or plate armor

I contradict nothing, read again I guess ? Who said bandit needs to be sneaky and mobile ? I didn't.

You did say something interesting though but I won't pursue it even though it stinks, 99,99% of soldiers whether by choice or draft are male, I just reinforce some common sense here.

Read your first message, and then read your second message if you're too stupid to see the connection then it would be pointless for me to explain it to you

 

[Yukihirou]

too stupid

Clap clap. I play FMC game alot but I don't let myself get confused by fiction, this guy, on other hand.

This game leans pretty hard on knowledge check and thinking outside the box. In typical RPG, killing would be the answer to pass through a situation, and since most RPG players are used to this gameplay flow, this is the first thing that come to mind whenever a situation involves dealing with ennemies. This is a sandbox RPG, there's no real concise direction, you have freeedom of options here, it's up to you whether or not you want to experiment. You found out that instead of killing the bandit, you just had to stun him, free up Cecily and have her and Gray Rat kill this stunned bandit in your place. This is what thinking outside the box is. The way to deal with one situation isn't linear. Don't shy away from consulting guide if you get stucked. That's the whole point of learning.

Though I can understand your frustration regarding the game's main mechanics. The first time I played this game, I also went through lots of struggle, however in my case, I got super addicted to the game instead of being put off. I personally think most of the negatives you brought up are a positives to me. The janky combat (or slow/controlled combat as I like to call it) is a positive to me since it enhances the strategic aspect of the game like positioning, taking advantage of environment, etc which is my preferred type of real-time combat as opposed to a typical hack and slash with a more fast paced combat. The stamina makes you want/need to plan your moves. Not having this stamina system and going with the typical HP/MP design would make this game extremely easy and far less interesting since lots of unique and interesting tricks proper to a game like LonaRPG relies on this stamina system.

Still I get it's not for everyone, there's lots of micromanagement and hard thinking to do in early play. This game is a RPG first that's akin to a Dark Soul game before being a porn game (there's very little porn content for you to enjoy here, unless you like super violent porn).
