Others Strive: Conquest [v0.9.0] [Maverik]

[AkiraTheMage]

I'm struggling to understand this game's mechanics, to be honest. I think it's predecessor were way more simple to get used to. It might be because it's on alpha stage, so i'll just wait for the future updates and i'll try it out again. This game seem really promising, though.

The early game is a bit rough as the debt is giving you a taste of urgency, but once the main Story advanced abit it get's much calmer.
reading the tutorials is a great help, also ask the guild leaders for tips when you visit in order to get pointers for starting.
You probably will be able to stop worrying about the debt around day 20 if yu pace yourself carefully

Is it possible to change the install directory for the Art Pack? I sure as hell have no 4gig to spare on my System Drive, where the user profile is located.

You can try with a symbolic link:

1. Move the "Strive for Power 2" or "Strive" folder from the appdata directory to another drive where you have enough place
2. Open a command prompt as admin (required to create a symbolic link) and change the directory to the appdata folder (cd %appdata%)
3. Then, create a symlink with the following command: mklink /D "Strive for Power 2" "E:\somewhere\Strive for Power 2"

(you can replace "Strive for Power 2" with "Strive" depending on the game, and in this case, the E: drive is one where you have enough gigs to spare)

Alternatively, you can use ln -s if you are on linux/mac instead of windows

Disclaimer: I have not tried, but it should work. If this does not work, you can remove the symlink and move back the folder.

You can start trying to do the main quest as soon as it shows up and get rid of the debt or play like me and make money and babies for your fighting crew.
Just work on making money from the start by selling extra food you can gather like "fish" and upgrade/research more food items and slots so more workers and bringing in food/wood/stone and so on.

I normaly pay off the debt and get my fighting crew to 6 fully decked out with the best gear I can get before I even start the main quest.

Save up money for the payment before it comes around and use the rest to hire more NPC's to do the work for you while at the same time you research/upgrade for more and more items/food so you can make even more money every few days or so.

My last play through I only had 12 NPC's with over half of them kids of the MC and a few of the girls and they are my fighting crew.

This way of playing gets you to learn how to play and so on.
Just remember that the main quest only move forward when you choose to work on it.
The only timed stuff is the debt but can be turned off by working on the main quest or pay it off its your choice.

can you only do anal with Aire?

 

[a1fox3]

can you only do anal with Aire?

No you can have regular sex with her just any other slave you have.
You just need to do other things to open up more you can do with her just like other npc's/slaves.

Android version possibly???

I've periodically tried to play this game, I think the last time before now was in the very beginning of 2021 but there never seems to be anything to do, so each time I have given up on it and tried again later. I also played the earlier game Strive for Power. There never seemed to be very much to do in that game either, but at least my character could make the attempt to fuck his slaves. He very rarely succeeded though.

Anyway, I can't figure out how to interact with the characters. I've tried using the in-game tutorials but they are no help for that. I can buy a slave in the market and then click on her in the mansion screen and read all sorts of things about her and I can assign her a task (that she will not actually do, but at least I can assign it) but I cannot actually interact with her in any capacity and I definitely cannot even attempt to have sex with her.

Seemingly all I can do is end the turn over and over again until my only slave runs away because I haven't trained her. I would love to train her, but no such option appears to exist. There is a talk button on the screen that appears when I click on the slave but no matter how many times I click on the talk button nothing ever happens.

How can I interact with characters?

Use Social skills to increase theire Loyality and Obedience and/or date them for a chance to learn about them (preferrences in Sex) or Train them in 1 of the 3 categories (Physical strength, Mental Strength or Charm).
If they like you enough any date ends in sex, other than that you can also initiate Sex via the date menu right off the bat.
More commonly any Action a Character takes increases it's stats.

how much charm do you need during the first meet with aire on the lich cave to bang her?

 

[Evangelion-01]

how much charm do you need during the first meet with aire on the lich cave to bang her?

You should have 4 Charm and 5 Sex for all scenes of the Revolution arc

 

[Phoexist]

For that first meeting, Sex of 4 will get her to agree

Feels broken since last time I played. For example i click Date, choose 2 and it does not let me pick. Similar to the 3 actions in the bar at the bottom. It says target and i can't choose one

Make sure MC is not checked and then pick 1 and you should be good to go on a date.
For sex you choose MC and 1 other and you should be good to go.

I don't do group sex so have no idea how that works.

Does the slave you're trying to date have dating unlocked?

I still kind of like the first game more. Combat in this one is better of course, but I feel like this one adds a lot of busywork for the sake of busywork with all the materials. Also they made it way harder to get new slaves, particularly for rare races. In the first one you could just wander around and kidnapborrow people from random encounters, but they removed that for some reason.

You can still find some rare monsters in Dungeons, like Goblins, Dark Elfes and Fayries.
Also Part one was even worse with rare material, here you can buy all or dismantle them from Items in Part one you had to keep fghting specific enemies for rare materials required for the strongest gear (like the Gargoyle from the Elfen ruins).
the only things that seem to have become harder is providing enough food for all your slaves thanks to the lack of a Farm

The second game is much better in terms of quality of life aspects, but worse in terms of simulation and immersion IMO. There's just less things to assign your slaves to do, and less pretense at running a household as a consequence. It could be called streamlined and I'm sure some people prefer it that way, but I find it makes me see slaves as interchangeable workers rather than individuals to tailor jobs for. There's very much a comment about slavery there, to be sure.

In the first game, I wanted to get a slave for a particular job they were suited for and have as much variety as possible. This time around it's just "I need people to get wood, you'll do. You might be good at signing but there is no signing, so go do something else or there's no point having you." (As an example, I can't remember what jobs were dropped between games, it's been a while).

There is only prostitution to earn Gold, no Entertainer or Escort.
Also no Prison Warden or Head Girl... some Jobs became part of the Class System (like Head Girl), others were dropped or are not yet implemented.
I kinda liked the "Wild" trait of free roaming monsters and the need to discipline them in the Dungeon in Part one, aswell as the non Sex Jobs for earning money, but overall the 2nd game offers more to gameplay and keeps me entertained for longer than the first part ever could

Just started a new save, how do I get my starter companion join me to fight?
"Combatant must be unlocked" wasn't a thing last time I played.
