No. There are a lot of good mods (I like Mari the Butterfly myself) but none that are required.downloading the game rn, will play it when i get back from work. any mods that nearly everybody plays with that I should download as well?
Not really, no. The mods for the most part add extra content, scenes, or even characters. There's also cheat mods if you don't want to struggle. But the game itself has enough content that mods don't feel like a necessity unless you've already explored everything somehow and want more (I still haven't seen everything)downloading the game rn, will play it when i get back from work. any mods that nearly everybody plays with that I should download as well?
I really like Battle Sound Effects and the Insertion Mod, but I don't think they're necessary to play the game.downloading the game rn, will play it when i get back from work. any mods that nearly everybody plays with that I should download as well?
press X to fucking doubt2. Vivian is innocent of crimes.
Genuienly confused by this, its like the 3rd time i've seen you defend vivian, i thought we were meat to hate her2. Vivian is innocent of crimes.
Why?Genuienly confused by this, its like the 3rd time i've seen you defend vivian, i thought we were meat to hate her
Well, Nara is acceptable, in my eyes. The rest are, as outright stated, tricks. She lies through omission by not giving you all the info needed, FORCING you to do something you might otherwise not want to do, something that might have been a deal breaker that would have led you to not accepting the quest in the first place had you actually been given the info. Not to mention the whole "soul-sucking" thing with the succubus campers that's been discussed to death already.Why?
She tricks you and sends you to an Alraune that fucks you.
She tricks you and sends you to campers that fuck you.
She tricks another girl to try and stop you, which incidentally gives her a goal and something to focus on while she's facing an emotional and physical roadblock.
How can you hate that? Like... you don't even have to interact with her at all if you don't take her quests or work at the brothel.
In that setting where nothing really bad can happen to you, she's basically just like an aunt setting you up for crazy blind dates.Well, Nara is acceptable, in my eyes.

You get to bust a nut, sure. Does that instantly make it all okay? No. No, it doesn't. Lying like that is still a scummy as fuck thing to do any way you slice it.
The soul-sucking thing nearly did happen, though. It's only due to the timely intervention of the other two that you do survive, so no, nobody is exaggerating. And Nicci is powerful enough where her pollen isn't just an aphrodisiac, but borderline strong enough to lure most adventurers into her clutches. Vivian opting to set Nicci up with free food is fine. It's that she isn't up front about the conditions involved. If you wanted a friend to help you with something and they omitted details that would impact your decision ahead of time, you'd be rightfully pissed.In that setting where nothing really bad can happen to you, she's basically just like an aunt setting you up for crazy blind dates.
With the recall stone you're not in any danger.
And she's doing a solid for most of the girls if you think about it. Nicci can't move and she's powerful enough that I assume the enchantment doesn't lead many adventurers to her naturally before they outgrow the forest.
So yeah the little trickery is completely harmless. With the one exception of the campers and that's a special case she couldn't see coming.
Also, she never forces you to do anything you might not want to do. Nicci's the one who attacks you. The game won't let you play an asshole so you do not get the option of just letting the campers starve.
I'm with Aesthetic here. Vivian's fine. You guys are overexaggerating.
Why are you putting these as good deeds? The 2nd literally outright almost kills you, and yes, it was fucking intentional, se knew jennifer and the other big boobed one are complete morons, and knew that cathrine wass a newbie succubuss, that was a disaster waiting to happen, she tricked you and sent you there knowing that, that's attempted murder, she has zero fucking sympathy from meWhy?

Nara should consider getting a better career choice, dancing is not helping her in adventuringVivian gave me Nara, so that's a definite positive in my eyes, since she's one of my favorite girls in the game. Other than that, though...let's say I wouldn't mind giving her a few George Costanza-esque whacks with the Demon Layer. I'm already in debt, woman. You're making this shit more of a hassle for me. I think she deserves SOME kinda punishment, even if it's just comical punishment.
I know that the world of sunshine rainbows cotton candy and chocolate in thresh's mind would never actually write something with serious implications more than once (kotone), but that's how it narratively ends up looking, even at best she still impedes you without conssent, some people in the thread are letting their masochistic desires allow a woman walking over them like thisI do not think Vivian was trying to kill us by sending us to the campers. I do however get the impression she's trying to stop us from advancing in general by trying to get us hooked on someone.
hardly that funny and hardly sexy either, vivian is one of my least favorite designs in the gamepersonally i support women's wrongs. hope vivian does even more awful stuff to the player for her own amusement in future updates.it's hot.
i think y'all might be taking this a little too seriously for a funny sexy aunt character
Nara's one of my favs as well...(fucking dies waiting for the promised Nara fluff content from way back)Vivian gave me Nara, so that's a definite positive in my eyes, since she's one of my favorite girls in the game.

Nara is depressed at worst but not suicidal, her falling is far closer to cluminess and osha violations than it is for her desire to end her life over a friendMoreover, having a woman recovering from depression dance on a mountaintop/cliff is....not something you want if you're concerned for her well-being. Especially when said woman is still somewhat depressed. Especially when said woman has fallen down multiple times and would've died if it weren't for harpies watching over her. PC at least knows about the harpies, Vivian has 0 clue and still lets her do so.
True dat, but realistically, my man.Nara is depressed at worst but not suicidal, her falling is far closer to cluminess and osha violations than it is for her desire to end her life over a friend
Death is also impossible, in the world of pure happiness and joy made by the cotton candy pink clouds death doesn't exist, cause that's too serious of a topic to write about.
Cause you get to have sex with hot desperate ladies in your area!Why are you putting these as good deeds? The 2nd literally outright almost kills you, and yes, it was fucking intentional, se knew jennifer and the other big boobed one are complete morons, and knew that cathrine wass a newbie succubuss, that was a disaster waiting to happen, she tricked you and sent you there knowing that, that's attempted murder, she has zero fucking sympathy from me
Oh boy, we're gonna have a vivian argument now
Bro if you're going to twist yourself into thinking that's attempted murder that's on you.he 2nd literally outright almost kills you, and yes, it was fucking intentional, se knew jennifer and the other big boobed one are complete morons, and knew that cathrine wass a newbie succubuss, that was a disaster waiting to happen, she tricked you and sent you there knowing that, that's attempted murder, she has zero fucking sympathy from me
This isn't the insane thing you're making it out to be imo.still impedes you without conssent,
The enchantment is weird.There's a million fucking ways the PC-Nara interaction could've gone wrong realistically, but we aren't given the choice to cook Nara in-game for her pathetic way of trying to fight mongirls, or just get mad at her and leave by using magic to break through the barrier she makes.

This is the most likely plot point.I do not think Vivian was trying to kill us by sending us to the campers. I do however get the impression she's trying to stop us from advancing in general by trying to get us hooked on someone.
Agreed, good point about the enchantment. Nara may very well be the only human, out of a gazillion adventurers, who has good chemistry with the PC. We see this in the capital where the PC can only sense the presence of other adventurers but not see them.The enchantment is weird.
You don't actually meet people you're completely incompatible with, with how it works. You can't get to a destination by "knowing the directions" you can only get there by having the destination in mind, and heading "towards it." The challenges you face, and treasure you obtain along the way aren't set because of that.
Does Vivian know which adventurers can and cannot see each other? Her plan to have Nara stop PC would've fallen flat if Nara couldn't even see him due to the enchantment, and Vivian wouldn't know that beforehand, so either she's got good matchmaking instincts or is in cahoots with the Demon Queen.Vivian is in line with the Demon Queen's way of thinking, and for her she just wants people to meet their monster girl soulmates. BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.
