I am really annoyed that you had to choose 1 wife.

Username checks out.

Is Heloise not a marryable option? How come? (Dropped off this game for a while waiting for Act V to finish.)

Not yet, but patch notes mention some characters don't have their Act V content in game yet. I don't know if that means there will be more characters to marry or just more sex scenes, but I'd be a little surprised if Heloise isn't added as an option.

 

[Wattle]

Hope there will be a harem option.

The mercs leave if you dont pay them with gold *before* you start your first conquest in act IV. After your lair gets raided, Rhyll will state in no uncertain terms that he expects to be paid.

As an aside advice - promise the wolves bitches and give them gold too, if you want to keep both armies and avoid the lowlands conflict. Gold solves everything.

You kept misspelling the warlock's name, but I appreciate the "why" behind it.

I havent been keeping up with the versions in a while - is there some benefit to letting the cat sisters go after their theft attempt yet?

Good to know. I will try to make another "Best run." Gonna see if Malzahar stays without giving him Val. Yes I will keep saying Malzahar lol. I read it in my head that way too.

 

[rocket1league]

Do the downloads here include all of the Act 5 content? Or is it different than the Steam version?

Wait, thats not his name?

I am really annoyed that you had to choose 1 wife. you can literally declare yourself to be a god.
But you can't decide to have polygamy.

you can.

I agree with you. Out of the cast (currently), marriage only has benefits to the three selections. Princess gets to be queen, Darja get's to be a real mother of dragons, and Malice... well giving the character power is something very much up her ally. But if you take Malice as nutral and you dislike the princess as I do, really the only option is Darja just to make her happy. Though I agree with you, the game should be "STFU IM A DRAGON I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT!" power fantasy, if they are forcing you to pick at least make the options sort of coincide with one another. You could pick Malice AND give the Warlock and Darja the Princess. Darja just needs a dragon baby maker, she really doesn't need a crown.

It just seems the dev is forcing a lot of conflict in a game that, at least to me, is most fun as a power trip.

 

[thebladeofwar]

Yeah, I don't think the Warlock joins you unless you give him Val, which I am now testing to see if you have any choice to still aid Darja without him being on the council.

Now while I cant discount further marriage possibilities coming up in the future, he marriage canidate seems directly tied with becoming queen. Now Helois is too smart to be placated by titles and platitutes, she recognize the trap inherent in the position and says as much when pressed about why she doesn't want to be your queen.

Now the princess wants it as she sees it as her birthfright, not to mention her entire line was specifically bred for this purpose. Darja wants it to fulfill her fantasy and she is generally room temperature IQ.
Lastly there is Malice who seems in it to fuck about with others, in part because she seems to wish to usurp the princess in her role as your mae, but again she could also just be fucking with you too here.

Dev has a fetish for "hard men making hard choices while hard" thing.
I get the girls wanting to be "first wife". But the way it is handled is ridiculous.

Actually to begin with, you are forced to vore waifus for power (despite lorewise you should be able to vore rando bandits instead).
Or hand waifus over to be gangraped to somehow magically let your minions conquer more territory.
Both actions delete the waifu from the game after a single scene.

So they are less about catering to those fetishes and more about forcing "hard choices"
The vore scene is not even shown graphically, you just get blinking red screen.

The only way to avoid waifu attrition via vore and gangrape is to activate god mode.
The recent nonsense with the queen spot is just more of the same. only this time we don't have god mode to bail us out of it.
With god mod, it can be at time a fun power fantasy of playing a dragon.
Without god mod... you have to be a hardcore masochist to play this.

I feel that isn't the intention right now. I have a feeling even 10 years down the line the dev will be adding things to part 1. That being said, even if that is the intent of the dev, though I agree with you, it sucks, is still a game. If the dev wants the player to make hard decisions and pick a singular waifu or something to that extent, it's his right. It isn't fun for me, probably not you too, but if that's the goal, gotta give him the option.

I personally think all options should be available, at least with cheats.

Im just saying currently there is a blantant everyone wins situations. Malice becomes queen and the princess is given to the warlock and Darjha to make a dragon broodmother and a cool new cryptid to add a new harem path.

It's masochism only if you're Mr. Harem King.

I don't care about the entire cast, so I'm fine with sacrificing some of them.

 

[Birdnman993]

I haven't followed this story for a long time because I wanted it to have more content and I hope to resume it when it's finished, but how is that the dragon that eats the waifus WTF?

Can someone explain to me? is it mandatory?

Thats a pretty loaded take. What makes replaying this so unique is the choices and deals you make to negotiate your way through the game and the desired end. You give so you can take. You simply want to have your cake and eat it too, wholly unappreciative of the intricate narrative of actually making choices with actual consequences.

The cheat mode is there for just such a reason, but then you might as well be playing a kinetic novel.

you are forced to vore waifus for power (despite lorewise you should be able to vore rando bandits instead).

Thats just not true. It is entirely possible to not gift or eat a single girl and still take over the kingdom without destroying or sacrificing any part of it. Ive done it multiple times with all 3 lairs, though the mine is by far the easiest. Im willing to bet you havent even tried exploring variations of the possible paths, if you can really claim the PC is forced to eat or hand over girls. So you've picked the lazy option of simply cheating instead.

Regarding what you claim should be "lorewise" afforded to the dragon, well, its wrong. You dont start off as a dragon. You go through the stages of being a hatchling, then a whelp, followed by a drake, before you actually become a dragon in its truest sense. And thus it is unreasonable to expect tackling bandit groups as easy as cattle or lone girls.

They could've made the game a straight line with the PC being nigh-invincible (IE god mode), regardless of circumstances. That would've been the easy way to go about it.

It is the introduction of the dark fantasy mode that is actually more impressive, as it involves so much more work to be woven into the game and confers a massive amount of agency onto the player's decisions and their consequences, going far beyond what is generally expected of a spank-game.

how is that the dragon that eats the waifus WTF?

No, you can have your desired outcomes without letting go of a single girl, you just have to know where, how and what to do in order to maximize stat points.
Eating the girls only grants you strength, which is the *absolute* worst way to make use of them. You only need 4 strength for the entire game and I end up with 7, never eating any girls. Literally every action other than eating them is infinitely more beneficial.

The game gives you the choice to just kill and eat almost every waifus.
There is not even a vore scene. just flickering red lights.
This makes your dragon stronger, which you desperately need if you are not playing in godmode.

As of the latest version, the moment you click new game you get this


Picking "power fantasy" means your stats are effectively infinite.
so you gain nothing from voring waifus.
Nor do you gain anything from gifting them to minion packs to be gangraped.
You only do those options if it is your fetish.

Although if it is your fetish you will be disappointed. what with the gangrapes being one and done, and the vore being just flickering screen.

Last time I tried dark fantasy mode I found both to be necessary. But I have only played on power fantasy mode for a long time now.

Thats a pretty loaded take. What makes replaying this so unique is the choices and deals you make to negotiate your way through the game and the desired end.

I disagree, what makes it unique is that you are playing a dragon

Please refrain from excusing your blatant lazynes, and lack of actual game knowledge in order to present your lies as facts.

Or is that expecting too much from one who is too lazy to even read beyond the first sentence of the post he responds to.

 

[Nijinda Futatama]

These are overexaggerations. There are other ways to gain strength and other things you can eat (cattle for instance, but that's not the only example). You are never forced to vore girls and giving them up to lair factions can be avoided by optimal gameplay. That said there isn't too much wiggle room with optimal gameplay, if you miss the mark there aren't a lot of ways to preserve a full harem without sacrificing something in some way (again doesn't have to be vore, it could be just losing the girl from your harem or making someone unhappy). This is a game that can be quite difficult to achieve what you want without a walkthrough to help you, you could look at that as a positive or negative.

Can you please tell me how to get more power without eating & sacrificing the girls ?
I get killed by Maelys when she attacks my Den.
Your help will be appreciated.

No. I've not eaten a single waifu.
