Also if you mistreat Hiho in front of Scylla ever, it has a negative relationship trigger for both and she will defend Hiho.
I actually suspected something like that but I wasn't sure if I should beleive it, that the game takes little things like that into account. I noticed this when I was trying to reproduce the drunk night scene after I finished the current build and I just couldn't get the same dialogue that I got the first time, there are a lot of triggers for various dialogues, even single lines.

This was Hiho the first time, second time I couldn't get her to say the "and we had sex" line, and it was literally just that one line missing. I tried various combinations of things, including doing Tall Debt before finishing Crimson Dervish (in the end, that did it, even though she has no lines during the drunk night). I'm still not sure what it was.

Speaking of Hiho I might have encountered a bug, or the Walkthrough is wrong, because I got Hiho's sex scene the first time after finishing her recruitment quest and the walkthrough just says your reward is that she joins. So the second time I just got the same scene and it kind of made me feel like I got her scene too early. I'm not sure if this is a mix up or I was so good to her that I sequence broke her romance.

Yeah uhhh... I have no idea where I left that google doc so I got ZERO idea of all the triggers for that one but there are more triggers in the ladies night sequences than a lot of the dialogue. Since it's fluff stuff I chalk that shit full of triggers and qualifiers, also if your relationship stats are positive, neutral, or negative... uhhh depends on who you have recruited, also what point you are in story-wise changes some of them.

Who is alive or dead also changes things (side characters), how you treated Buckle is a HUGE one, the scullery boy in the catacombs and if you killed him, also who witnessed you at the time doing it will change things.

It's one of the main ways I can really give the player feedback for the things they have done in the game world up to this point, these side-chats. A lot of our MSQ's need to track the same direction so we can't break completely what happens with decisions, but yeah. Not every quest can be Whispering Brook for instance... which, originally, was a sidequest! It was NOT meant to be a main story quest! That's why there were so many outcomes for it (3.5).

I've just recently started to support you guys on patreon, and was just wondering since im sort of ignorant of this site, im not sure how anything works, but how do I get that supporter badge under my profile? is it something exclusive or something special people get? I was just curious about it so hope someone knows things about it

We actually (I don't think?) run the supporter badge system for F95 and I don't think we have anything to do with it... I think? I'm not sure how it works or is set up here lol.

Would be interesting to learn though!

Is there a way to have more than 2 companions in the party at the same time, to see their reactions when i am talking in missions, like in atlathka blockade when i speak with clementine?

It would appear that there are remnants of the sketch in the final version of Hiho's art. The arrows point to what looks like an eye and a nostril.

Those are actually just scales lol. The only concept of Hiho (the earliest too) has her eye and nostril somewhat similar. The scales on her face you are seeing are meant to add a bit of dynamic geometry and detail to show the way that her face is angled/curved giving a bit of depth.

Here is the earliest concept of her we have. girls1.png

Really? they come from nowhere, go nowhere and follow no observable pattern. They would look less like sketch remnants if there were more of them and they followed some kind of pattern, real snakes head/face scales have all sorts of interesting layouts.

But whatever, if it's not a bug, it's not a bug.

I know this is a big IF but if you do make a sequel to this game like in a different town or region you can even do a poll for the main character we play as like there gender, race, and class.

We definitely have spitballed some ideas and such, but having a poll later on the gauge what people are interested in would be really smart so that's a really good idea. If could help us decide what ideas we have are valid and which aren't.
