QSP Vicindio [v1.99.40] [Solid Snekk]

[Solid Snekk]

an idea for a new game could be something like vicindio but sci-fi? the only decent sci-fi sandbox game i can think of is Trials in Tainted Space, and calling it decent really is pushing the definition. instead of the typical fantasy classes like healer, warrior, and so on, you could make classes like combat medic, soldier, sniper, etcetera.

...i have no idea why i'm blathering to you about this.

I tossed that idea around before when I was considering other projects. It will be a fun distraction from all the medieval and goblin rape.

Starfinder has an open gaming licence(ORC) and as long as I attribute proper credit I think I can add them. I'll have to look into it.

You're gonna get probed by Grays. Ayy Lmao.

I saw the subscribe star post about maybe adding back in the sex combat system and improving it and while Im a big fan of the idea I keep thinking about how it will make getting relations with people obnoxious and wanting a quick sex option. This led to me realising that every game with such a system with the exception of the ERA games divorces its sex combat system away from the rest of the game just like normal combat so you end up with situations were you make an npc orgasm 100 + times in "one sex" and get 10 relation vs clicking the have sex button 100+ times and getting 10000+ relation despite these two things literally being the exact same thing.

The lack of Impact of the Dol style sex system outside itself is the real issue here.

Most of Dol's sex is rape. Like, a good majority aside from the player banging their friend. I haven't played it in awhile but I don't recall much relationship being added.

It is a difficult system to balance. Finding the trigger that gives you the most reputation would just lead to it getting spammed. I thought about locking out reputation gain after a certain daily limit but that was just tedious.

It's not like the game is a competitive multiplayer game. If people want to rush through and get rewards fast, who cares?

i...don't think that's a point anyone was making. you can play a single player game and take your time with it, you know. i've got northwards of 200+ hours on a lot of single player games i play because i can appreciate the writing, the story, the gameplay mechanics, and sometimes just get lost in the world.

wanting the game to feel more of something is just natural. for someone that plays games only for the dopamine rush of rewards, the game would be too grindy and dragging out too much - too much dialogue, too much fluff, etcetera. but for someone that appreciates that the reward is the fun had, gameplay mechanics can always look a different way or be a different thing to make then suit different tastes.

my point is, no one cares if you want to rush through, but don't make it at the expense of the people that don't.

I don't see how having the option to skip sex mechanics and get the same rewards comes at the expense of people who don't want to rush through the game. If people want to play in a way that they gain stuff way faster for less effort, that's their choice. But as someone who likes to take her time with games myself, I don't exactly feel like that is a chain forcing me to skip. I only skip when I think it is tedious, and if it is tedious, trying to make it less rewarding so I do something I don't enjoy for longer isn't the best way to sell me on a game.

If people enjoy the mechanic, they'll use it. If they don't, they won't. If people want to spam a beneficial mechanic in a dull way 100 times in a row, well, that's them isn't it now? Not like anyone will be forced to join, or affected by their decision.

...i think you need to lead with that, or quote whatever it is you were replying to or responding to, because this seems like a basic case of miscommunication on both our ends.

I'm having a lot of trouble with the prison quests. I'm a futa catfolk
For "Trash to treasure," I helped the girl, now it's just telling me to "go check on her." Where?
Also, for Lost depths, I don't know what the yard event is, and I don't seem to be able to trigger it.

I get out of prison after the rat kills the cellmate, then I've gone to the port, helped the nun, talked to her in the basement, and went into the portal thing, but apparently I'm supposed to be able to find the desert in the portal?
I'm unable to do that, and when I go back into prison and repeat everything, the only thing that happens is the rat now tells me to go to the ports.

Also, how does prison rep go up?

Edit: Okay, so it seems like you need the amulet from the fox girl in the sleepy fox inn to view the event in the yard. You might have to complete her whole quest in fact

So far, I'm loving this game, it feels like I fall into quests organically rather than being forced down a line.

I love how you can do a bunch of quests out of order, and instead of thinking, "Oh, I had to do it anyway" I find myself thinking, "Oh, awesome, I've already got the thing ou need"

I love how there are lines that reflect that sort of thing too. If you complete certain quests, or know certain characters, it changes some of the dialogue, but because how fluid the quests feel, it feels like those few lines were earned.


It'd be cool to be able to put fortune in one of your dead bodies after the flesh sculptor played around with it.
Being able to even customize a body made from your parts would be super cool!


Being able to swap to Bedes soul during combat would be cool too, like a temporary infested class
Speaking of infested, it'd be cool to be able to fight and beat Thesaur, and make it submissive to you, becoming the new ruler of the infested

So currently Snekk (Bless their soul) is currently rewriting everything from QSP into Twine. Any further content is on hold till they get the Twine version where they want it to be.
Any bugs/issues may get worked out during this process but additions will be unlikely due to i think a wiki is next in line.

 

[Vombatidi]

As for updates on the great work he is doing, they are all on subscribestar.

What a mad man XD

Ikr. But from what they've shown on Substar they seem to be somewhat enjoying the challenge so swapping over, also giving pixel works ago for a bit of dynamic situations. Hopefully they don't overload themselves too much and burn out.

 

[lolzmandude]

I kinda like this games vibe of just... putting a bunch of random shit together because it seems interesting.

 

[ZIrvs]

I've just joined the thread, so forgive me if it has been asked.

But with the Twine remake, would it be possible to have the street dogs try to knot you, giving you an option to allow it? And if they do knot you, they try to drag you into the street?

I was thinking of this mostly as an aesthetic thing, unless it could be tied into the reputation system somehow. Maybe even the crime system, with a possible guard encounter while knotted?

Loving the game though, can't wait to see more.

 

[Sigvil]

Are spells bugged only for me?

 

[Sigvil]

Spells just dont appear, besides default forebolt and even firebolt disappear if i unequip it or reset magic. Did i do something wrong? Is there fix for it

 

[Pluck283]

Is there anyway to get rid of the tentacle infestation?
