Ren'Py Parasite Black [v0.160] [Damned Studios]

[tuShua]

I'm actually enjoying the story so far, sex aside. Also, I hope there will be more Nyx and Princess content soon, as well as Kiara and the Dremoarai waifu. And I take that Ramon is in another continent? There's still the Grace quest. Sometimes that lazy part of me kicks in and wants to just skip the nature of the story. But once I slap that out of the way and actually take time to read and be patient with everything, the story's actually quite engaging as well as some mysteries hidden here and there. Keep up the good work!

I think most you can do is the ass grab after you pull her panties. And the pussyrub event

Why kill Alcott? They can't ignore the politics because if you take time to read everything, even the books in the library, and the quests so far, politics is important. War always has some form of politics attached to it.

Why kill him? because as soon as Alcott finds out who the mc is he is gonna take a Warhammer 40k response to him, negotiate is not in that mans dictionary and I assume the inquisitors are his idea to maintain his dictatorship not sure about that though , and have you played or read Witcher ? by ignoring politics this means the mc himself tries to not pick sides in the kingdom even if he is ultimately forced to do so.

And exactly because of that rush mindset where you let your fear get the better of you rather than thinking of the right time, and plan properly to make things go your way as much as possible, or be 10 steps ahead of the enemy, is what's gonna make you fuck up and you're the one who ends up dying instead. Alcott is what's needed in the war at the moment while the MC is still looking for different paths and different solutions. I think you have forgotten that you're not only raising affection and banging hot wahmen in the game, but these very hot wahmen are influential and they can be of help. Heck, even that lady who offers her services outside the brothel can be a greater threat which someone like Alcott would suspect when it's already too late. Then you have Grace, the Slime, Dremorai, the Palam mages, the captain of the guard, your sister, hell, even your mother has her own connections. I think some people (not saying you), underestimate the possibilities the characters could do aside from fucking. Connections and information are important, hell even the goblins are on your side. Alcott has connections, but what are his compared to yours in form of potential at the moment? Man's too busy in the war, not to mention your sister maybe also helping you behind your back. Unless you want everything you've worked hard for go to shambles, there's no reason to kill the man at the moment, who is responsible for managing your entire army from crumbling down. They easily lost morale when Newheart died. Imagine if they lose their current emperor. Thinking hastily isn't always a smart thing.

Modified the incest patch as I noticed it set a couple variables that weren't in the game anymore and also unnecessarily capitalised the relations, something that's handled by the game.

Something for lostraven to fix would be the use of regina_ref_cap when they want regina_ref in:

how do you install this?

Put it in the game's game folder

 

[Ntrsugar]

Just noticed the Incest patch in tag list.
And as far as I remember there's no incest in the game.
Is there ? If yes can someone explain where & how ?

Hello everyone!




First and foremost, If you haven't already, please wishlist Parasite Black over on steam! Every wishlist helps! Link to the steam page here:

Been a while since the last post, but wanted to let things cook a while before making the next post. We, so far, are still on track to release the update at the end of the month.
First things first, the content for the next update is still being added/implemented/play-tested etc. This update is pretty huge to say the least, with continued reworks and things ongoing alongside the new content.

Remember, the current plan for release is:
-1.) This update coming (Mrs Winward and a few extra things).
-2.) All the mages of Palam + finishing touches.
-3.) STEAM RELEASE (Aimed for December) -Main story update (Regina and Sypha focus).
After which we intend to focus on the main story for a while afterward.
Now, going into a bit more detail, we talked about art revamps before, so, below are a couple examples of a few smaller details and things we've been working on in the meanwhile...

(Above) Arlena model revamped in line with our current art.

(Above) Drax character model revamped in line with our current art (WIP)

Markus bedroom (Above) - Revamped

There is of course more art remaining for revamping, but thankfully, we are coming to the tail end of 'revamping artwork' at last. By the time the steam release launches, we should 100% have this issue finally laid to rest, meaning we can solely focus on producing nothing but new art!

One cool new feature we wanted to show you guys was crafting will now be available in the next build. Find ore and resources to craft powerful new items, weapons and armor!

Obviously, to make this fully functional it'll require a lot of play-testing, feedback from you guys and a bit of back and forth, but thankfully, we think it helps make the world of Parasite Black feel more dynamic and hopefully, more fun for you guys.

Combat is still in the works' development wise, we're still a few months away from where we need it to be, but we are continuing to work on it, and, by the steam release, we hope it'll be something you guys can fully enjoy.

That's all for now,
don't forget to subscribe and follow our YouTube channel to catch a glimpse of a few early teasers and things!

As always,
thank you guys so much for your support,
you guys and your support make all of this possible
If you have any questions or suggestions, please don't forget to post them here or over on the discord!
Love,

-The Damned Studios Team

that sounds tedious.
it also doesn't even make any sense from a lore perspective. MC is a magi-biological horror. He should not rely on mundane equipment for his combat abilities. Rather he should level up his ability to produce weapons and armor from his body via shapeshifting.

The MC still has a human form, which he (you) will likely need to fight in.

Choosing to transform into your parasite form is a cost/reward mechanic, you can do it and gain access to/level up the Parasite's powerful abilities and arsenals, but each time will raise your infection significantly. You need to strategize and weigh up in game when to use it.

"Should I transform into a Parasite to fight these three raiders? Or should I save it for the dragon ten minutes from now?"

You can, of course, use the parasite form multiple times in one day, but it's *supposed* to feel like you're powering up in that form. All of your stats boost up, alongside being able to use the parasite's powerful abilities.

For certain set encounters, i.e main story events - You may get a free pass to use the parasite without any infection raises, such as when you first encounter the man in black - to avoid unnecessary bugs.

Your companions also have inventories and such for equippable gear*

New Arlena's clothes look too smooth for her work.Even her dad has the same issue.Thebold Alrena's clothes didn't look out of place .

Noted. We'll try make her clothes look a little more 'worn in'

agree they both look like metrosexual couple not blacksmiths .

 

[Armo99]

dont forget helminths and other parasites, syphilis after each sex and any other real medieval life issues

 

[Ntrsugar]

I'd say the same problem of "being too clean and flat" is also applicable to the new faces of the characters.
It's lack features. It's too clean and flat , like a potrait painting of someone but they are sprites and it would do good to add details & shadows to thier faces.

I'd say I like the old character model of the Arlena , the new one looks generic and more like Adara.
It's hard to make out without clothes.

 

[Ntrsugar]

I think it would do good to not monotone all the faces of characters.
They all have this perfect face structure and features, which takes away thier character and differences and they all look the same.
Now Arlena, Adara and the prostitute we save, all look very very similar.
They have the same face structure and features.

I think Regina and Lynx are the best character models. They are beautiful but still have character.

 

[Ntrsugar]

I hope all my comments are taken in good faith and not as constant nit picking.
I love the game , and the things holding this back bother me .

Not at all.
I do read all the comments, even if I don't reply.

I have a couple ideas I want to test/push for to try to improve character models.
Hopefully, they'll be positive.
