It does not matter are these stats gained from drugs or from books/training. They will degrade to 20 without drugs. And only after that - addiction will gone away. All books that you have read or lessons that you completed before or during drugs period - will be wasted.
So choosing drugs - should be a considered as permanent solution, not some temporary boost.
Plus that they probably are invited to sleep with their master. They have all night to plan and surprise their master in case they really decide to. With a house-full with battle-savvy and well-trained slaves most masters are already out-numbered and possibly also outgunned already without any drugs. And despite that most of them still control matters at home and on battlefields.
Of course there are and will always be slaves that are ready and willing to bite the hand that feeds them. Yet they usually realize there will be consequences if they bite too deep. Slaves are taught to obey and told quite graphically what to expect in case they get too ambitious. The drugs discussed here can move the balance of power to some degree, I do not doubt that. To make slaves rebel and take the control from their masters? Nah.

Yea, I've been playing on my original save for long enough, to have 7 out of 8 combat ready with coil guns and Duraplate. They could smash me if they wanted, but I got them on Undying Love, 90+ happiness and all but one is over 50 in corruption.(she's at 47).
I can reck them in the dungeon, and all they say is "Let's do it again".
Damn it... I don't want too sell slaves because they might be needed for future quest but I still need too add slaves with quest and I don't know which one I captured and which one I bought. Are there upgraden for the questrooms or retreat planned in the future updates?
(Early-access release is scheduled for next week.)
Screenshot 1:
The MC can now visit Raikan east from Watery Eyes. Raikan features several interesting locations.
A general store that sells new weapons, crafting materials and other items. Offers a vendor quest with roughly the same length as the Walton-Michelle mission.
A seedy tavern mostly reserved for mercenaries and burakumins. Here, the MC can listen to rumors and participate in advanced mini-games (Gambling).
The holy Amiago water temple - dedicated to the princess saint of Raikan.
Toshi Gardens. An investment location that opens up after finishing Mai-Lynn's quest.
Burakumin village. An investment/quest location that opens up after defeating The Black Scorpions.
The Black Scorpions. A yakuza-cult hybrid organization that offers a really tough fight.
Screenshot 2:
Haruki's store offers many interesting items and new weapons.
Screenshot 3:
What's going on at Hunt Research Laboratories in Crystal Hills?
Screenshot 4:
Two new quests that are relatively long/advanced with several different outcomes and secret rewards.
Here, our MC is facing off against the charuck's only natural enemy, baneclaws, in one of the quests.
0.8.3 feature 1 of 3!
0.8.3 will be a very intimate update - focusing on the MC's household and slaves in various ways.
In addition to the great household revamp, 083 also features two "sexy" frameworks. The lesser of the two presents a much-needed soft-bondage action, which the MC can use for punishing disobedient slaves, or as a kinky foreplay.
Right now, the only way to spank away disobedience is through the very invasive way of hauling a slave down to the dungeon.
This new feature ("Spanking") enables the MC's to hand out that punishment in his living room instead, with less severe Affection/Happiness consequences than the rack.
Each story slave has nine unique spanking renders - with or without panties, based on current clothing, number of landed strikes, grope ass, and when your hand lands over her ass.
The spanking framework is completely stand-alone, working for both your wife and slaves (and potentially even NPCs).
Girls can appreciate spanking at fairly low Corruption levels, making it a great entryway into rougher bondage - especially after the bondage revamp in 0824, which will make rack/stool bondage somewhat trickier to abuse for an easy Corruption increase if your Bondage skill isn't high enough.
Am I the only one seriously turned off by AI generated images of women of this style? They all look the same and creepy. I wish this game stayed with the daz3d models for everything. For example I'm looking at this Screenshot 3 and think - how can I replace that image with a blank black one?
Aw, yiss! Not to dismiss all the other things, since MOAR CONTENT is always highly appreciated, but the interactions with "hosehold" is what I really play for.
Where's that bloody "edging" tag on the game, this is highly unhealthy!
Awesome. Much needed, and hope it's just a start of expanding that side of things. Moar non-BDSM toyplay, plox
Want to throw a quick note on something that's been bugging me for a while. The "Corruption" stat, so far, has really been more accurately "LikeSadist" in its implementation. Even with "soft" spanking, it's still really geared more toward submission/masochism than full-blown "corruption" (if you define that as "willingness to do more, sexually"). There's no reason MC should not be able to raise Corruption in amicable ways, by encouragement of increased experimentation or embracement of personal perferences/traits - as long as the slave it's directed at is compliant!
Though it probably would take some work, it might be justified to actually decouple "likesadism" from standing for "corruption" in general, and make that a separate variable. Make the base "Corruption" value be affected by affinity toward sex acts in general (ALL the like_ values), and have it raise with increase in appeal of all sexual acts. It does appear to be used as determinant for actions more in terms of general definition, not merely tolerance of BDSM. So it would make sense for slaves that like sex in general, even if outside of BDSM play, to pass "Corruption" checks.
That way you could use the more sadistic actions to train slaves that you can prostitute in the most degrading and abusive environment (i.e. cheap setup) with no objection if you go "hard" way. Or, train high-value escorts who psychologically thrive through their work, but will absolutely flip out any time someone tries to force their boundaries, with "soft corruption." Making it crucial to ensure their safe work environment (aka "more expensive to set up").
As a quick example of divergent gameplay depending on players' preferred approach.
It's not like you need degradation to make someone a submissive, either, as long as their personality aligns toward it well enough.
Doesn't help that the way MC is written "domination" choices are pretty assholey. I'll freely admit that I find degradation a complete turn-off - I'm into happy and willing participation, even in terms of more extreme content.
And, right now, it's impossible to "corrupt" your slaves in a lovey-dovey way, simply piling more and more pleasure on them. Hey, don't kink shame
Slight issue is the fact that only Oral Fixation trait is implemented, and there are no similar traits to mess with for vaginal, anal, or even breastplay (much less a generic "tactile" trait for greater arousal/happiness from just general touching and caressing).
Again, not to diss on what's there, at all. Just a quick note based on personal preferences
That's something as highly subjective as it probably gets, and likely dependent on where your uncanny valley treshold lies.
Though I'll admit that one's a more "generic" compared to the others. The reason I personally really liked the other AI images is precisely because they stood out from what I keep seeing (also in terms of "photorealistic" presentation). Which is mostly "asian-lite" faces, and in general oversized mammaries because apparently that's a huge (har har) thing in that corner of the world.
Pretty sure Adobe, at the very least, is working on "image to image" AI models from what I heard, and I'd be shocked if the adult industry was blind to the opportunity something competent in that direction presents, either. Or even just some Daz plugin to take a preset 3D pose and overlay with diffusion algo for finer details. Best of both worlds, heh.

Yeah, they all look a little Asian - which, given the nature and overall character of this site and many of it's supporters, wouldn't be a problem for them. I think most of these AI generator models are done by weebs to drown in a pile of their "ultimate waifus"
But at the same time, AI portraits let the dev work faster on actual mechanics. So it's ultimately a tradeoff and you have to ask: what is most important?
Please please please!! can anyone explain how the positioning of slaves works? Yes, I know how to put one in the 1st-2nd position, but how on hell can I put the slave that it´s in the position 7 in the position 4???
