Unity Completed Mystwood Manor [v1.1.2] [Faerin]

[Crowley91]

You place the Tarot cards into the girls/MC's inventory for boosts. I would always go for the lvl 1 cards at the outset as you will often get higher level cards by random chance.

1. similar system is not the same as "this exact set of colors". My point is that it requires us to memorize completely random color scheme.

2. what ARPGs use this exact color scheme?

Any system would have some randomness to it. Replace "Orange" with "Gold" as it is meant to be, and the order used here is very common.

World of Warcraft: Gray-White-Green-Blue-Purple-Orange-Gold-Light Blue
Star Trek Online: Gray-Green-Blue-Purple-Dark Purple-Gold
Star Wars The Old Republic: Gray-White-Green-Blue-Orange-Purple-Yellowish Orange-Yellow
Final Fantasy XIV: White-Pink-Green-Blue-Purple
Mighty Party: White-Green-Blue-Purple-Gold
Lost Ark: White-Green-Blue-Purple-Gold-Bronze (sorry, lack of good color in the ones suggested)
Runescape: White-Green-Blue-Purple-Orange
Hearthstone: (none)-White-Blue-Purple-Gold

So, yeah, none a 100% fit, but any player who dabbles in this kind of game will likely be accustomed to the white-green-blue progression even if unsure at first why that is.

It is a convention, just like certain keyboard layouts - you could argue that QWERTY is stupid, and many people do, but it is generally visible and people will learn it sooner or later.

That doesn't mean that additional symbols or similar couldn't be helpful to add, but as for the color scheme itself, it ain't broken, it is pretty much standard in video games. (Physical CCG like Magic the Gathering have different systems, agreed)

Also, the rarity doesn't really matter, a card does what it does, you cannot really upgrade it or similar. You cannot trade them in for anything and care about some sell value. Yes, it may be a bit more prudent to get the higher rarity items first to not let the RNG get a chance to run total amok later, but otherwise what is important is what the card does for your playstyle, and that is written out clearly. So I consider this a non-issue in any case.

Is this game fully complete now or are there more updates planned?

It's fully completed. Aside from any potential bugfixes, this game is done.

 

[franksiinatra]

doubt the next game will include incest. I aint never see a dev successfully make more than 2 incest games in a row. Except for icstor. With so many vn inc games dominating the community it is hard to stand out when you have the same lazy roommate-landlady plot over and over again. It gets old. Look at icstor for example. Brother made like 5 complete incest themed games which were huge hits in the past 7 years, yet people shit on him for abandoning milfy city(very tragic btw). Bruh I dont blame him Id be burned out tf out of myself. Tired of the same shit. Now days you got to get creative and taboo and really nasty with it to stack up them subs. These half assed 2017 daz3d renders and deviantart drawings dont cut it anymore. Perhaps 5 years ago theyd stand a chance. Our boy over here already made 2 games with inc in it. Moth was more heavy on inc and a bit more hardcore. But this one was like more of a side dish which is fine. Yet, it felt meaningless. The mom and sis had little to no resistance in committing such sin(yes Im aware of the mega convenient magical fog). Progress felt very robotic and dull. Adding incest into their next game would be a bad idea if they cant surpass what they accomplished in Moth.

ICSTOR has never made a successful game PERIOD lmao, he just milked the pay pigs and vanished

When she's checking in and doesn't have the pool in her requirements just re roll and the pool will possibly come up

Thanks,

> Tarot rarity goes: grey, green, blue, purple, orange
this is completely and utterly random color schema. how are we supposed to remember this?

Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes follows exactly this colour pattern.
Loads of games do.

Often see them given names, like Common (Grey), Uncommon (Green), Rare (Blue), Epic (Purple) & Legendary (Gold).

Been a while since I got the tutorial, but wasn't the point of a guest reaching VIP status that you always complete their interactions, as long as a girl is assigned? Doesn't seem to be working with the lvl 5 VIPs. It does skip the interaction but on the summary screen it says they were unsatisfied.

It doesn't automatically complete the satisfaction level, it just ensures that you don't need to answer the questions for which drink\meal\massage\swimming stroke, etc.
For the satisfaction, you still need the room upgrades & items, plus the girls' items, plus the relevant Tarot cards.
Depending how high the guest's required satisfaction is (Sofia - 90% & Mischa - 100%!!), you might need Traits, or Customer Service +10% boost.

 

[mrttao]

That is the rarity color scheme for many MMORPG video games. Blue and Green are sometimes swapped. Also White after Grey, then Blue.

1. I avoid hard drugs like world of warcrack for health reasons

2. As you said yourself, this ISN'T actually the standard color scheme. It is missing white. yellow should be gold and there should not be an orange. and blue and green order is confusing due to varying by the game so much.

so my point stands on that we are asked to memorize a completely arbitrary non-standard color list.
and we are supposed to still remember it 3 months from now when we update the game and come back to it.

On the other hand if the cards said [SR] in the corner I would be able to read it on the spot and know what it means.
and maybe make it so if you hover over the [SR] it will list the rarities.

Often see them given names, like Common (Grey), Uncommon (Green), Rare (Blue), Epic (Purple) & Legendary (Gold).

And I explicitly suggested that this game should actually write out the rarity level.
If the cards SAID
Common

and the word common was colored gray, then it would have been great

Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes follows exactly this colour pattern.

No it doesn't

You must be registered to see the links

it goes:
colorless - green - blue - purple - gold

So, yeah, none a 100% fit, but any player who dabbles in this kind of game will likely be accustomed to the white-green-blue progression even if unsure at first why that is.

1. You shouldn't assume everyone here self harms via addictive harmful predatory games

2. You admit it is not 100% match. to which I ask
A. Why isn't it a 100% match to something big like WoW? it would have been better if it was
B. Why isn't it labeled with words
C. why isn't there a reminder somewhere in the inventory page that lists the rarities for people who come back after a few months to check updates

3. Just a reminder. I suggested possible improvements. I didn't say the game is crap.
So you are arguing against the feature suggestion of having words written to help inform you what the color means

So you are arguing against the feature suggestion of having words written to help inform you what the color means

(1) Your approach towards MMO games notwithstanding, it is kind of a standardised approach and for many players this kind of symbolizing level/rarity is way better known and way more approachable than something entirely new like, e. g., your "rainbow" suggestion. Because you shouldn't assume nobody here indulges in these kinds of games. Or games inspired by them (e. g. DeLuca Family uses a similar code as well). Just because you have not encountered something does not mean it is not helpful to others. And just because you think you could memorize something more easily doesn't mean that others could.

(2A) Well, for starters WoW has way more different levels. Within the existing colors, the order is 100% the same though.

(2B), (2C), (3) I never argued against a symbol or a word or an explanation in the inventory. I actually mentioned it could be helpful to include something like that.

I just argued against your statement that the order of the colors is "completely random", as you claimed. It might have been at one point but by now is a well known convention for many and just because you have never heard of it doesn't mean it cannot be very easily recognizable without further explanation by others.

I also argued, and I think more importantly, that this is a non-issue since the "rarity" of the cards does not affect gameplay at all. If you just treat the different colors like fancy embellishment, your gameplay will not suffer at all. The only information you need is what the card does, and that is explicitely spelled out.

 

[xapican]

Dear mrttao, yes your suggestion (observation) was apropiate, neverless, I kept asking myself for what ? the game is completed, after reading your following posts, I asked myself ok for what is the guide in the op ? and for what is the "?" in game ?
although, I agree tottaly in the points, you mentioned, In fact some of that I mumbled to myself playing MM
My guess was If I were a dev. what would I use for a color scale ? Why use Gold as sign for somthing rare ? (because in our occidental cultre this color is asociated with the divine, and with high value, i supose) but I don't know nothing about designing intuitive controls.
Cartageno, don't have they different percentage in bonus ? you're right is not game breaking, and once you have all in inventory they don't show the scale

 

[mrttao]

I just argued against your statement that the order of the colors is "completely random", as you claimed.

Alright. fair enough.
It is "inspired by games. without actually matching any of them".
I was wrong to call it random

 

[whichone]

It is "inspired by games. without actually matching any of them".

No. It exactly matches swgoh, precisely as I said.
Many, many games use this exact format & colour sequence.
It not being familiar to you, does not mean that it's unfamiliar to everyone.

No it doesn't

You must be registered to see the links

it goes:
colorless - green - blue - purple - gold

ORLY?
Grey: Green: Blue: Purple: Gold:
What you have referenced, in your link, is a character's Gear level, not Gear rarity.
They're still Grey.

 

[Cartageno]

Alright. fair enough.
It is "inspired by games. without actually matching any of them".
I was wrong to call it random

Apart from whichone's example, it also matches one of my list to 100%, and all but one of the games I listed have the existing colors (white as lowest, green, blue, purple, gold/orange as highest) in precisely the same order and only have a few more colors because they have more levels of rarity.

Again, you might not know these games, and an extra help for any who don't can be useful, but the color order is not a 100% standard but a pretty widely used one and recognizable to many.

 

[Cartageno]

Cartageno, don't have they different percentage in bonus ? you're right is not game breaking, and once you have all in inventory they don't show the scale

That they do, but the exact numbers are written in the card description. And, IIRC, cards with the same ability at a different level are not differentiated by rarity but are in the three different tiers (i. e. you pay different amounts for them).

1. this is not gray, if you think light blue is grey you need to see an optometrist. I called it colorless because it is the same color as the GUI
2. Where is the orange and yellow? you say it perfectly matches. but it does not.
in Mystwood mannor it goes purple -> Orange -> Yellow
according to you that SW game goes purple -> gold

Apart from whichone's example, it also matches one of my list to 100%, and all but one of the games I listed have the existing colors (white as lowest, green, blue, purple, gold/orange as highest) in precisely the same order and only have a few more colors because they have more levels of rarity.

additional colors != the same
it is similar, but different.
and you are conflating gold and yellow which are not the same

I know, it's hard when you were wrong.

It's grey and the colour sequence follows. Regardless of your desire to quibble over Yellow\Gold.
Multiple games use it.

It is not a problem with the game, it's just a lack of awareness\familiarity on your behalf.
It's clearly not unfamiliar to others.

to which I ask
A. Why isn't it a 100% match to something big like WoW? it would have been better if it was
B. Why isn't it labeled with words

See above.
Because it's only you, so far, who has expressed any difficulty with it.
It's entirely familiar to me & many others.
Even if the colour sequence does not precisely match a given game, it's still close enough to be familiar.

Regardless of familiarity, it's utterly irrelevant, in this game, anyway.
The only thing that matters, is what the card does. Not what coloured tag it has.

 

[mrttao]

Of course you do, because you are wrong
