Ren'Py The Null Hypothesis [v0.8a] [Ron Chon]

[Buttholder]

I have read over a hundred issues of Uncanny X-Men in less than a week.

I am still completely lost on comic lore because they keep spinning stuff off into seperate issues or entirely new lines.

a while back. One of the big mistakes people make is thinking they need to read everything when you don't. Read the stuff that interests you, read up on the stuff that doesn't. If you do want to read everything, which I've done, it's a hell of an undertaking. Just make sure it doesn't put you off reading comics ever again, because that is a genuine risk.

I've got an old what if tie in for the infinity gauntlet where Thanos wins and keeps the silver surfer around to show off how evil he is. Sometimes the separate issues just don't matter.

That's immensely helpful.

And to clarify, while I am getting a bit lost and overwhelmed by the sheer number of different comic lines, a lot of my disdain is mainly annoyance from Marvel spinning off characters at the drop of a hat with the flimsiest of excuses. Really enjoying a team dynamic, and suddenly everyone has a big fight and splits off into three different teams.

It's a pet peeve, and I know the spin-offs have their fans, but it still annoys me, especially since I'm reading the comics online and I don't want to look through the database to keep following the characters.

But yeah, as the number grows, if the devs want to keep the poly route not a massive grind, some things will have to be adjusted.

I had fun reading some parts of the games discord today, and lets just say: There are already some potential (and amusing) solutions for that pitfall floating around there.

So with a little luck, we will at least not have explain to multiple angry GFs why we were going on "date 3/3" with someone not approved last night again, and doing the full grind could easily get limited to those you want to have groupsex with. Which seems fair and worth the additional hassle to me.

I think my only concern right now is the system for unlocking being able to date a new girl when your going for all the girls. It's a good and balanced system when your dealing with just a couple girls but it might be a bit much with more.

When they add the new 3 new girls you will have to grind the friendship something like 12 times ( 3 for the first, 4 for the second, and 5 for the last one )? to unlock dating all 3 new girls. And something like 39 times when you have 12 girls and 3 more are added. Note I'm not great with math.

I'm hoping they make it that a fair amount of the girls start okay with it if they make sense for it, or at least require little effort. And only the ones that canonically don't get along with others require more work to establish that trust.

Well, the devs have already given themselves a path forward for the whole love/trust grind : increased gains, via the achievement shop currently, but I wouldn't be surprised if they had a chapter completion bonus, or possibly character events for later girls may give higher boosts to points (if you select a "good" response to those scenes)

They could also add new skills/abilities that will help in later chapters... plenty of choices for them to avoid the game being too grindy.

I was talking about needing to make the girls friends in order to unlock them being okay with dating one of the new girls since it just exponentially increases the grind each new girl added. I'm fine with love/trust mechanic as it is right now.

Where was this discussed? I have trouble keeping up with both the discord and this thread here.

 

[dany ouellet]

Indulging in a quirk enforces a personality trait; in Rogue's case, it ups her submissiveness.

So if you want sassy Rogue later on, pick the thumbs down.

I wasn't really meaning a discussion persay, but the "majority vote" from the hum-hum dump stories would really ease off early grinding, once the harem grows too unwieldy in chapter 3+.
It would also be an easy excuse for some girls to already have a bit of connection & score-points with eachother, while others are at best getting a frosty treatment.

if so is there somewhere i can look everyone quirk 1 2 3 and however many they have? ..so i avoid asking each time (thanks in advance and for the previous answer)

So far it is two quirks per girl, and seems to get a value of how often you encouraged or discouraged it
Submissive & Masochistic for Rogue
Dominant & Wincestplay for Jean
Dominant & Protective for Laura

Edit: You'll also find those in their Stat screens later on when you know the girls better, and there seems to be some final confirmation dialogue later on to "lock in" your quirk picks for each girl.
No clue yet if those mean "locked-in for this chapter" or for the rest of game, that is a secret only devs can tell you.

 

[SeveralGeese]

also worth noting that you can talk to them about activating or deactivating the quirks once you're in a relationship. so you're not locked into anything (yet. who knows if that remains a thing in later chapters)

I'll throw in a quick questions since holding off playing this game for a year and not really checking this place often, where are we currently on the Chapters (I mean I could just dig back and search and play myself but it'd be cool if someone could give the update on what's the next girl added besides most likely Storm), also completely forgot how do I get the girls to sleep naked with the player character, does everyone's love and trust have to be at 1000?

Ok so.
1.- As it stands, chapter 1 is complete, we are in version 0.8 and chapter 2 will begin at version 1.1 (wich is when the new girls will be available).
2.- Next girls will be Storm, Dazzler and Kitty, with Emma Frost making an appearance as a villain as the shadow king did in chapter 1.
3.- Dunno, they just kinda do it on their own, you could try overwriting their pajamas?
