Is there any plans for more kingdom management or "court intrigue" aspects to the game? Feels like a waste to have this lovely map and throne room and then not very much to do with it.
There are no plans for "court intrigue" due to the hyper non-linearity of the game: I can't
know which Wench you are going to have at any specific time so writing scenes for Wenches which aren't there seems like a huge hit-or-miss thing.
Now that I have explained why it can't happen I'm starting to think of ways for making it happen. Damn.
As for kingdom management: we currently have Morale, Obedience, Gold, Troops as direct resources and Fame and Transfer Time as indirect resources (you didn't think Transfer Time is a resource but it kind of is, isn't it?). So, for a porn game, I think it's enough.
whats the point of having "VN mode" when it still acts like sandboxgame, there is barely any difference to the previous one
Eliminating the sandbox elements completely would require too much coding and testing efforts. In the current VN Mode you literally can't fail in anything fiefdom management; I think you can finish the
entire game while spending no more two minutes in world map or fiefdom management. I find the existing VN Mode a good compromise.
I'm confused. Wouldn't higher infamy as a ruthless leader be the goal then?
Since higher fame would mean you're well-known as a benevolent leader, higher infamy would mean you're well-known as a ruthless leader. Right?
High infamy is negative Fame, with the effects kicking in at -100 and -200. I don't want to keep two set of scores (Fame and Infamy) so I refer to negative Fame as Infamy. If you have better suggestions for naming, I'd be happy to consider them.
Saturday or Sunday.
