Unity Price for Freedom: Avarice [Build 37.2] [Team Dead Deer]

[Valaska]

Anyone know if this is coming to Steam (soon or eventually)?

Eventually, we plan to release to steam. That's really our end goal, even chatted with GoG but they only allow nudity in CDPR games. Disallowed on any other developer/publisher. Even sexual content period is pretty hard, when I offered to censor the scenes heavily and take out the descriptive narration in scenes and just keep them narrative and safer. They said no, literally, only CDPR games or big enough games are allowed.

when will it be completed?

Awhile yet!

I played a much earlier version of this game at one point way back when there wasn't much content yet. I found it on some pirating site somewhere. I've been keeping an eye on it and was thinking about biting the bullet and just becoming a pledge, but I was wondering - how much has the combat/tutorial changed? I remembered what turned me off completely was the fact that the combat was barely explained yet still complicated and I had no idea what I was doing early.

We are putting off a complete combat overhaul for build 18 or 19. We've been talking about ways to fix it up, playing other games and looking at other examples with interesthing mechanics. Otherside is a great example of some interesting mechanics that would be nice to try and others.

But will keep the "skip combat" option until the end, yes? Sometimes I don't mind it, but about half of the time I'm just not in the mood and skip.

 

[Ekmek]

is this game have a any anal scene ?

Is there even a basic combat tutorial anywhere though? I just don't really know what I'm meant to be doing, even in this first fight. Like I get the basics of being able to target body parts, once you get through the armor you can damage them directly and apply bleeds and debuffs once you've maimed them, but I have no idea if you're meant to be swapping targets around to maim everything or if you just target one less armored spot and hit it until the enemy dies.

Uhmm we might have a "give me story' mode or maybe on very easy only. I would prefer to have no skip option personally haha, but maybe. I would prefer to nail our combat system and not need skip.

Sooooon. Build 17.

We haven't made a tutorial unfortunately and we'll hold off until we re-do the entire system. A lot of people in our discord have figured out some pretty brutal Redic builds and team combos to just glass everything.

You naturally want to go for arms first barring some of the creatures to reduce the damage they can deal, then you do want to main several limbs to increase their overall bleeding. Certain characters have skills to really shorten how long enemies are around, Scylla for instance can execute lower health enemies and finish them off, giving her buffs.

Does the build 16 lags, or you are talking of the previous builds? The latest version might possible run better.
What are your system spec?

so if i remember correctly the last build i played was 14 or 12 my processor is intel core i35005u cpu 2.00 GHz 64 bit 4 gb of ram

Could you try the build 16? It should run smoother than previous builds. We are now using native code instead of assembly for this reason.

Bloody hypocrites. Forget GOG then, they would pale in comparison to steam sales anyway. Plenty of porn games on steam that remove the sex(just make sure to have a free patch to unlock the sex on yoursite/patreon!)

ok how can i download the new build and let you know also because the gameplay is nice the nice story and juicy content, honestly not being able to play this game is like being diabetic and having a chocolate cake in front

I can respect that. Just as a personal feedback: PFF is the only adult game I play that has any kind of combat mode, and only because I can skip it when I don't feel like it. So far I've quit or avoided every adult game with unskippable combat modes.

Maybe this describes it best: When I want to play an rpg I don't care about lewd content, when I play an adult game I don't care about rpg elements and combat.

I enjoy PFF despite its rpg/combat elements, because I love the story and lewd content.

Anyway, great work!

 

[Psyside]

so anyone got the 16 ver patreon patch

 

[S - Boy]

Not sure but we assume that was why. We didn't bother checking the reason.

Hmm, i don't know, some other erotic games have their content posted on youtube and nothing happens to them.
The trailer was good so it's a bit of a waste :<

i can't believe it's been two years... and not a single mac version has ever worked as intended.

oh, the game starts, you can even play the prologue fine (only if you reset the settings in a way that doesn't crash the game because everything is waaaay too big at the default and the system can't handle it)
But even if you manage to get it playing advancing a bit too much causes a glitch that AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS DOWN YOUR MAC IF YOU ENTER THE THE START MENU, making the game literally unplayable, since you can't even access your saves nor make a new game.

If you are gonna have a mac version available, either make sure it works correctly or straight up do not make it.

This build does work for me on a mac mini, granted at 15 fps. Could you post your logs after a crash, as well as your saves? That would help us a lot.

ok, i'll try to give the details in the next couple of days, or i'll try to figure out if there's something else that might be causing this (like maybe having saves from some previous versions crashes the game?)... i'm playing on a macbook air from 2019, so technically it should be able to handle it.

 

[fregonard]

it seems that we will not have a crack for build 16 so soon, if we play without the crack we still have enough scene in the game or does it pay to play?

 

[Sneak Monkey]

Ok so I've given the mac build a go, it's really low fps, weighs heavily on my mac which I use for total war games so it's not the mac. A few bits of dialogue in, they climb out of the wagon and it's red screen, nothing else just a red screen. So the game ends rather anticlimactically.

Ahh! Yeah I gotcha, something like a "story only" mode might be okay where you can still have the skip option but yeah. We really want to try and make something people don't want to skip, but I getcha. For the forseeable future, we will have to keep it just in the event of soft locks etc which are probably gonna happen. Sometimes adding new tags, quests, etc, can break older content and yeah.

Yeah I'm not sure! It was the SFW version which DID have some suggestive animations. Maybe the hiho clip is what did it, not sure.
