HTML Masters of Raana [v0.8.4.8 A1.1] [GrimDark]

[Ghorloz]

actually, that's only fair, since they have to "charge" b4 melee combat anyway.

No some enemies (like cultist monks and master brawlers) start in the charged stance already.

Is there way to decrease corruption?

responses in Italic & bold:

"I guess I started on .811c and am now playing .812. I get the numbers all mixed up and don't pay much attention to them anymore."----Easy to do, but this is actually important considering **SO MANY* changes he's done. [example, crafting]

"... changelog"----thanks. Haven't been on DC in long time, need to find my login! lol!

Yes, I do feel like an assassin sometimes and don't really like it, but we are playing a 'grimdark' game. I would like more options to bring them back alive, and even ally with some of these guys, but it doesn't exist yet. [me too]

---lol! Actually, for "Grimdark" (no offense meant dev) I don't find it that "dark" at all! lot of action/horror games are *MUCH MUCH* worse! [OMG! ] Lots of "good guy" options: CHARM; "Sadistic" can be avoided (oh & DEV, "DOMINANT" isn't necc "Sadistic") ; almost everybody you attack has a weapon; Most are criminals/wanted by the "authorities" ; There's some dark stuff, but it's *OPTIONAL*, as you've pointed out you don't have to "rape"/non-consent anybody;
SO, "good guy options" [like bringing back criminals to face public justice] is very much in-line w story & theme.

(ok recent example: "X-files" Episode sleeping problms [but did just fine w "Grimdark" --didn't seem that "dark" 2 me! lol!)


"I don't disagree, but from what I've seen you post it doesn't seem like you take advantage of your ability to break down merchandise to get scrap metal and smelt it into steel etc."---This is a good example of 1 of those "version" things. In 810, it was all the same. But in 811c [& 812] There's Art & Blacksmith Req; Plus of course, buying stuff; Net: $3500+ AND Req 30 BS skill [YES, that's just to SCRAP metal!]
W changes in newer versions', takes a long time unless you do "crafting" option @ start.

"It works, even if you start as an Academic character. "----1 of the many recent changes I've seen, [versions again] is shorter time for classes. BOTH (if memory serves?) Teaching (Acad) & Edu (home)
Has anyone done a Scientist run recently? [ie, STARTED 811c or 812] A while back it wasn't popular, & I posted about some of the problems.

Probably 1 of the newer changes. Used to be they all started back.
I've done runs w option to change start pos (Ver? T4) but, sorry, I too have trouble keeping all the versions str8!

I know "Feminist" does [Trait] -->> but, bigger Q is, why would you want to?

 

[Sick&Alone]

GR: PS "Grimdark" (again, not meant 2 offend dev)

"You're my hero! Thank you! I'll spread the words of your kindness." [DIRECT QUOTE!]

"Grimdark" ---um, ***THAT's EASY*** That's so much of what we see/hear IRL today.
THIS???? Quite the opposite I'd say!

---->>> 1 of best things about MoR: just like IRL, can go either way; (dark/light; good/bad; ) ***CHOICES**** (there's some really otherwise good VNs out there, that have very few choices, or they just plain suck)

I've (historically) never been much of a fan of HTML games----but this is by far 1 of the best, if not *THE* BEST* I've ever seen!

 

[Sick&Alone]

lol!
(Attention DEV)
line #77992 [T4 ver, 812] *WAS* correct in 811c; now typo!
Correct:
"....I'll be off. I… was never part of their gang, just so you know!"
in ver 812:
"I… was never part of their gang, just so you now!"

Its nice to have slut for slave or prostitute money machine, but you want to marry someone decent additional problem with corruption is that its infecting, high corruption mean high household corruption and you realy dont wish to spread it to your daughters or wife.

 

[Tanev3]

I really only read Grim Dark Posts.

 

[papasmurf]

sorry to add to the bad news but when u buy the ladies armor then equip it u pay another 2600 to equip. this happened with lorena

 

[Sick&Alone]

Attention Dev (boy I bet you're dreading my posts! lol)
812 (T4)
Line #128,287-9
Def count +1 in text, but +2 in code.

Actually, there's a difference, buying armor for *SLAVES*, & buying 4 "household" (including mercs like Loren)
Check again, you should still have the armor you bought. "Household" (ie mercs) Armor can only be upgraded from their screen.
Store bought stuff is only 4 slaves. If you bought it (store) it should be avail for your slaves to use

If you get them too corrupted you can't trigger some of their content, all they hope and dream of is tasting your cum in the morning and getting their tight little ass railed at night.

Assigning a girl to the Arena will slowly lower their corruption as well.

 

[Foobert]

What's her *ANGER*?

Currently just at one. I try to leave her alone if it gets above zero.

at what #? (many things take 60+ to reduce bad traits!) I've always found: 1) get her *AFFECTION* back up, & 2) her WP (Neg <0 WP has lots of problems, like you mention)

Maybe I've always encountered enough Feminists (only takes 1-2/8!) that it's a *HUGE* fight to get & keep corruption high

Good tip thanks!

I don't know at exactly which level I lost the ability to trigger Nicole's media establishment. I'd guess around 40, maybe 50. When the only thing they start hoping and dreaming for is your cock you know you've gone too far. Mind you I'm pretty sure you can get the content, then corrupt them to the max without losing anything, so that's the way I'm going to try it next.

Feminists are a pain, but keep fucking their brains out (both down in the dungeon and your bedroom) and corruption will keep rising.

....
At first I couldn't succeed with charming Rebecca at all, 0% chance of success, but with time and respect-building I was able to eventually get into her pants and then she was mine in short order. First time I got her to take a bath with me she wouldn't even let me touch her. I waited until I could start caressing her (using passionate approach) and did not piss her off or try anything too forward to start with.

Never. Give her time.

As I've said before, be nice to Rebecca, ignore her defiance and eventually she's your little bitch.

You must be a *LOT* luckier than I am!
Time's a luxury you don't have w Defiant or Hi WP girl! [Reb's Def # was over *10* 1st day! she stole a lot of food!]
She'll likely escape if I don't use FEAR or punish her; [took <5 failed "rolls"----Not 1 success!] (current: Charm-46/Manip-46)
I know you mentioned getting CHARM to 70, But since no books & you started @ 25, I assume you got Reb while MUCH much lower. [again, need specific #s; ] Takes a very long time to get Respect >30, but again, you didn't mention specifics. ("leave here alone" till when?
Should also be noted that affection/happiness factors into training, so more like FAIL there too, if charm fails.

[tried a run like yours----"Soldier"----but w LOW charm & LOW Manip scores. [takes quite a while to upgrade house, even w the $!]
"ignore defiance" is usually a bad policy---even IRL! Only 5% escape risk----but that's the same odds as lowering many Traits (which you hear people do all the time)

make sure it's not a WP issue; How they respond to "Ask" Qs changes a *LOT* when WP's too low (1< ?)
In fact the response is exactly what you talked about (even @ low Corrupt #s!)
I would say safe side, WP=>10
