Good lord. I love the premise of this game and the work that has gone into the hot female character models. But the amount of grind in this game is insane. And I say that having used cheats. The amount of grind is insane even with cheats. I'd love to see what corrupted Lovisa is like. I'd love to see a Rebecca Higgs who doesn't hate me. But I have a job in real life and other responsibilities; I can't spend a week in real time just grinding up or down stats. I tried to decrease Lovisa's "vanilla" stat, and after multiple days, I barely made a dent in her stat bar.
Also, I don't particularly like that you can't control slaves better. Rebecca Higgs hates me? Tough shit. I'll beat it out of her, like I can in Free Cities. But then she hates me and constantly tries to escape. I could take more drastic measures in Free Cities (blind them, amputate them, etc), but here? Just shrug my shoulders. Honestly, I think the creator could take a lot of tips from Free Cities. Multiple pathways to submission. WAY less grind. WAY less.
WOW you hit on a bunch!
1) 1 thing about this game,
IT'S DIFFERENT EACH PLAYTHROUGH depending upon how you start. Very few games like that!
B4 you start a run,
TAKE SOME TIME to figure out your most important goals (girls/fighting/$/etc); This is *NOT* something where you can do well "jack of all trades" ---really pays to be a "Master" (of at least a few things)
2) I have a mod out (NOT updated for 811c, just to 811) another post----it's *NOT* a cheat mod, but *IS* designed to cut down on a lot of the Grind (& Bal issues) ; Check it out or PM me & I'll send u a copy. [BTW it's easier/faster to corrup them *IF* u have the stats, *&* the right way, using my mod. (removed some of Dev "randomness" so stuff that "sometimes" work, is much more *Reliable*
]
3) I've done the "tame Rebecca & make her love me" thing----here's some hints: (applies to *ANY* HI WP GIRL!) [have a run now---265 game days---Reb is: -7 WP, 87 happy, Loving (Affect)
A) *ONLY* punish them (yes BDSM/dungeon/etc) once they DEFIANT (Def) is 2+; NEVER below that!
B) ALWAYS use "PROCLAIM PUNISHMENT" (other piss her off more, but she "*KNOWS*" she's been a bad girl & deserves it!)
C) MAX your CHARM & MANIP scores (80+, higher is better!) before you buy them!)
D) Use CHARM "talk" 1st, until it fails several times. (explain chores, sex duties)
E) Talk about sex (ASK-> sex stuff) in a DOM tone; (lowers 1 WP/time, so up to 3 WP/day this way)
F) Bath/shower: CHARM, if works; (better) if not & she refuses, the DOM; Depending on her stats, can lower up to 4 WP *EACH TIME* [possible to do this more than 1x per day)
---->>> Using above, most days can LOWER WP 7-10/PER DAY; [until DEF gets too hi, *OR* too angry, too many failed "rolls", etc]
Aria (FEMINISTS! ugh! hate em!) will FAIL early on, must go back to option #1
G) LAST, but not LEAST: Avoid trying to do *ANYTHING "nice" (even nice talk!) if their *ANGER* goes up! [safest is ANGER=0]; If it's hi, give her a few days. [oh & *DUH*! don't rape her or do anything sexual until she'll respond (low WP) to CHARM attempts.]
Escape: (have mentioned b4, DEV needs "Lock in room" or some other option, (that doesn't hurt health or cause pain!) that's realistic. ]
Worst comes to worst:
1) MAX your defenses (yard) including, "check perimeter" (must do daily) [note her escape risk, if -0-, no worries]
2) I know some don't like this, but IRL, (& works here too!)
***FEAR***; HIGHER FEAR = DROP WP QUICKER! Also, higher fear [10+? don't rem exact #] will drop DEF #, which drops ESCAPE RISK. I've dropped escape risk to -0- many times this way.
--->>>
if you want to decrease her WP ASAP (& actually, cause her least amt of PAIN) MAX FEAR, or at LEAST 50+!
Final tip: Have Advocates (more than 1 is better) w *NEGATIVE* - WP; they work independently & will drop her WP---but *ONLY* down to theirs, so keep theirs low too. (many things will cause WP to rise)
