Old Lillian could have quite likely been a Yandere, especially with the way she tossed out that one adventurer hitting on her with a spell before cheerfully skipping up to the player with a smile upon the player entering the Church on occasion. New Lillian seems more grounded, so she probably isn't a Yandere, although some characters of that nature are quite adept at hiding their true selves and can appear normal most of the time. Yanderes are not necessarily a bad thing, depending upon how exactly their... instability manifests, and if the player is presented with options to appropriately handle the Yandere. They can even be quite fun if properly managed, although they may still lose it anyways and you'll wake up one night being ridden raw with a knife at your throat while they chant like a droning zealot about children...
At least the barrier would prevent the more extreme Yandere subtypes from acting on their violent impulses and mitigate most of the danger from the deep ends of the Yandere archetype. Threshold has even suggested in the past that there may already be a Yandere character that the players have met, but this could have just as likely been a jest or a distraction rather than fact. Although it is also a fact that Shizu stalks the player, is likely a voyeur watching them with others, and was on the shortlist of characters to break into the player's room at night while they sleep although Vili was the first one chosen and given such an event. So if Shizu is the Yandere, that would put her in a fairly tame level of the spectrum given what is currently known and shown, but it is probably equally likely, if not more so, that she is just an extreme pervert with a great many fetishes.
I do hope that this at least eases the mind about the possibility of Lillian being a Yandere in her current state, doomgal.
As Ffint has stated, and thank you very much for that, there is currently no level cap and you can go up to level 300 or even beyond. However, in the future, the level cap will be 100 but there will also be a Rebirth system where you may reset your level to 1 in exchange for certain benefits similar to Disgaea's Reincarnation mechanic. So, both now and in the future, you'll be able to grind endlessly and mindlessly if you so wish, with unlimited levels for now and to reach 100 and reset over and over again for whatever benefits may be obtained via Rebirth. We do not know exactly when this mechanic will arrive, but it is likely that is something that will come into being once the Capital is available.
I do hope that this is a satisfactory answer to your question at the moment, WhatTheHekc.
As Lazyrick noted, and thank you very much for that, Vore is on the content black list like Futa, M/M content, under aged, and Gore. As it did not specify, it could very likely be a total ban on all Vore, both Hard Vore that is lethal and Soft Vore such as that element you mentioned of keeping someone in a stomach pouch or unbirthing them. Now as for the rest, bellybutton, no idea really on whether that will manifest or not given how niche it is and how it may seem amusing more than anything.
Transformation has already occurred in the background a few times such as Mika transforming from a standard Catgirl to a Dire Catgirl or Catherine being overwhelmed and transformed from a Human to a standard Succubus from trying to circumvent certain safeguards concerning traveling and warping straight into the Capital. For current transformation related content, the player can have their penis transformed by having a week-long marathon of sex with a Red Matango. Then Nara has transformation as a part of a few of her potential storylines. In one storyline, Nara will just transform into a Monster Girl as per usual while in another Nara will learn Animism and will be able to transform into a variety of Monster Girls species and can revert to being a Human when she wishes. I'm hoping the Animism plot is chosen personally, especially with some of the jokes situations suggested to go along with it such as Nara messing up the transformation in the Desert and transforming into a Mermaid instead of something more fitting for the arid environment. Although it will certainly be hard on the art budget if Animist Nara is the story used as well.
Asset Expansion is planned for Trisha at the very least. As a part of helping Trisha evolve into a standard Succubus she'll attain the more glamorous figure she desires with fuller breasts and a rounder bottom. Of course, a Succubus can also evolve to suit her partner's tastes rather than her own desires and if the player shows interests in her current build and convince her that they love how she looks and that their is no problem being more modestly endowed, Trisha can remain slim after she evolves rather than developing a more voluptuous form. It also partially exists already thanks to Aiko as when you convince Aiko to sculpt her body to have a slimmer waist and flat stomach, she'll move that mass to her ass as evidenced by Bed-chan calling her out on it.
I couldn't say if age progress and/or regression will appear. It would be safe as long as it does not touch upon under aged at least. Could be interesting and may work with an existing concept considering the nebulous idea of the "Ancient Evil" said to be imprisoned under the Mountain. If it turns out to be real and the seal on the Temple did exist at one time and has been broken, that could certainly be a character that may have aged while sealed and possibly starved and could be restored to a younger, and perhaps more appealing form. Similarly with multi-arm and multi-breasts, I couldn't say if those will ever be a thing. Multi-breasts does touch upon Furry content on occasion, and as Furry is on the content blacklist, that could diminish its chances of appearing. There are beings and concepts for multi-arms that could translate into a Monster Girl species however such as certain Asuras or the Hecatoncheires.
I do hope that you find this a satisfactory response at this moment, RemiliaScarlett.
It is certainly an understandable concern, even hypothetically, but in this case, it does not appear that there is much to worry about given how Tech-Will essentially survived as Tech-Int and Allure still retained its massive damage potential. Balance in this case seems more along the lines of raising up something that is underperforming, in this case Power, or lowering something that is egregiously powerful like Allure before its first nerf before the big balance patch where it was capable of 100k damage hits or how crowd control is being focused on now given that those status effects are too effective as a whole.
Sure, Intelligence is being hit the hardest by the nerf, but that's because it has three different full disables to wield being able to Stun, Restrain, and Sleep an opponent and can essentially nullify the enemy's ability to fight back. Although, in theory, Intelligence can still lock down most enemies fairly well by juggling the three status effects, Stun them, Restrain them while stunned, and then apply Sleep while they're restrained so that they'll hopefully fall asleep on the turn they break free or perhaps a turn later while the other turns are used to buff, debuff, and/or damage as appropriate.
While we mage types may no longer completely dominate turn economy, I do hope that you still enjoy the combat system going forward, Mustang Flex.
For #1, I'm not sure if this one will quite go that direction or if it would be like Heather and just a little soft around the middle while having outstanding assets, but for discussion of future Kitsune characters, Threshold was debating between going with a lithe Kitsune with bags under her eyes or instead opting for a luxuriously thick form. For the latter concept, said Kitsune would be even thicker than Kotone, so she would have incredible assets in that case considering how well built Kotone is already. So there could be some hope, although it may not necessarily go to fuller levels, she could very well be somewhat plush at the very least if the luxuriously thick build is decided upon for her.Ooh that can be a fun discussion. I have two on the top of my list.
1. BBW woman/women. Not just a Vivian type with big tits and butt, although that's very nice, but full on big woman with a wonderful round belly, sexy double chin, massive ass and thighs, someone I want to surrender to again and again
2. Ass worship skill. I was disappointed in the balance update with all the changes that this wasn't added. We already have pussy worship, although there are far fewer opponents that use the facesit stance than I would likeBut this would be a great addition. What about initiating a facesit stance too?
To our undeserved thread sherpa L30, heard any rumblings about these things at all on the Discord?
For #2, there hasn't really been much talk of that as a skill yet, but perhaps it could materialize in the future. One reason it may not exist yet is there aren't really many enemies to really use it on and I do not think that any of them currently have a weakness to Ass focused attacks, so it would be something of a trap option if included and only work for the fetish at the moment. Imps and Mizuko are resistant to Ass focused attacks while Harpies, Harpy Tengus, and the Tengu are all neutral towards Ass attacks. Future enemies do present new opportunities and new enemy introductions have enriched the combat options available in the past. Gren's introduction and becoming official content does seem to have increased the general interest in Ass related content, so perhaps it is just a matter of time.
Once a way to implement an effective request system for combat in the code is determined, it should be easier to at least experience stances like this and utilize the indulgent attacks in return. Players aren't allowed to initiate certain stances like titfucking or forcing an enemy to sit on their face as not all enemies support all of these stances, so their AI would freeze up and not know how to respond due to lacking the supporting skills for those stances. So if the player could initiate, it would be an easy way to win as the enemy would freeze up and either respond with being unsure what to do or attempt to break the stance while the player is attacking away at the now helpless enemy. Adding such stances to all enemies would represent a notable content bloat due to the need to create attacks, responses, supporting combat logic, and so on. Additionally, not every enemy may necessarily have the form to support a stance, Imps would be able to perform a Naizuri at best while Camilla and Jora are huge as well as not really built for traditional face sitting as a few quick examples.
While this may not necessarily be the answers you were looking for, I do hope that you derive some value from them, fanboi.
That's because Mizuko has two checks during combat with her, she has a general Worship counter that can be active throughout the entire fight that becomes more likely to occur the deeper your Trance and the higher your Ass Fetish. The Worship Counter has specific variants for no stance, Sex Stance, Anal Stance, and Face Sitting Stance. She also has a specific additional check for whenever you are in a Sex or Anal stance with Mizuko as she'll try to maneuver into a reverse cowgirl position and use her hypnotic powers focused on that glorious posterior of hers to make specific Reverse Cowgirl Temptation checks. So if you have sex with or anally pound Mizuko, she'll have the potential for this specific check in addition to the general worship counter check, making it more likely she'll interfere with your ability to press to attack or do anything really. In addition to this, Mizuko takes advantage of higher Ass Fetish levels and can increase your Ass Fetish while under Trance, making the checks more common and difficult as well.
I do hope that this answers your question, BobSamade.
As for development related news, the dark-skinned Kitsune has taken another step towards eventually joining the game as her name has been decided upon. It is not being revealed as it is spoilers and perhaps relates to her concept in general as Threshold mentioned holding onto their genius move when justifying not revealing the name. Plans for the future have also been stated that the story will likely start moving forward again after Venefica's next content expansion that will either be v23.3 or v23.4, so the Labyrinth is that much more likely for v24 now.
As for new additions, as a part of tuning Amy a little, Amy has also received a new combat event. Another event has been added where Ancilla can be added as an encounter when exploring the Forest Dungeon again after clearing it much like how it was once possible to have a Quest to meet Ancilla and spar with her to help her train before the Forest Dungeon Nexus was implemented. The work on Stun and Restraint balancing appears complete and using an item to clear a specific status effect can also trigger immunity to the status effect but Panaceas will not trigger immunity because of the way they clear all status effects rather than causing a proper recovery, this also makes dedicated items viable and have advantages Panaceas do not, so one can choose to use a specific cure for other potential benefits or just clear it with the all-encompassing Panacea instead. Next, there are icons to represent immunity to a status, but they may not necessarily make it in as they are as they appear a little obtrusive, so jury's still out on that one and they may be tweaked a little before being implemented. Finally, depending on how these crowd control immunities play out, Trance and Paralysis may receive temporary reprieves as well when cleared with Paralysis being more likely to receive such an effect than the former.
I do hope that everyone interested in this information finds this at least a little useful.
