Do I have to be a porn addicted ****** to enjoy this game or can normal people enjoy it to?
I'm just stating the facts.
Question is are you going to gargle the truth or swallow?

How else are we supposed to attract developers to our forum? Maybe if we behave ourselves we can get some merch or free games!

It just requires some of you to go along with the plan and not be mean.

Yes, it's Tyranicon.

There's no arguing the game is coombait, that's basically Tyranicon's whole schtick. He's never had a problem ******** and getting **** on though. Anyone can feel free to check his Codex post history to confirm. So Immortal's kvetching is misplaced in this case.

Edit - calling it "his whole schtick", is probably unfair. It would be more accurate to say that he wanted to make cool CRPGs, and then discovered that selling them with porn attached actually increased his sales. He's not a trad or Christian so he went with it.

I was just checking, there's no rule against shilling β€” it's actually encouraged. Any developer who has thick enough skin to shill their product here is welcome to. :turtle:

@Brother Chad, have you done any sort of combat showcase yet? That's the part in which I'm most interested.

Aren't there going to be two versions of this one? One with porn and one without? Maybe I'm not remembering correctly.

Yes, I'm leaning towards throwing all the porn stuff in a free DLC so the main game can be sex free.

@WhiteShark re: combat

Nothing that I can show right now. The trailer shows a little, and the old demo has basically the same combat system I'm migrating over.

I thought this was a dig based on the whole Infinitron respectable gaming magazine stuff. I must have misinterpreted, I'm sorry.

Oh yea it's 100% a dig on Infinitron me.. Not on the dev posting this. I'm with Rusty, if Dev's have thick skin and don't censor criticism - let them post & shill here. It's awesome. :pipe-hat:

I noticed that while watching your trailer

That this monster here is most likely an store bought asset/monster, are you going to replace it with something eventually or will you keep it because you're a single dev working on the game? (Fun Fact, that Monster is a boss in VLADiK Brutal, that's why I recognized it and it's 100% store stuff) Wouldn't mind either way.

Using storebought assets is great as long as it's not something like overused(and ugly) synty assets that are immediately recognizable.
A bunch of D&D monsters are based on cheap plastic toys Gygax bought that came as a pack

Does this game allow me to discriminate based on sex, religion, race or sexuality?

As I said, I don't mind if he keeps it. Thought it was funny seeing that monster in a completely different setting.

Interesting stuff. The trailer is definitely well made and gives a good idea of what the final product aims for. I suggest you follow your idea and throw all sex stuff into a free DLC, it's undeniable that **** sells but some find the idea of cartoon people having sex in a computer screen cringe af.

I have a question. Since you name both Torment and New Vegas as your inspiration and make a point about being a writer, is the main character supposed to play a specific role of sort? Or is the MC intrinsic role in the story more marginal and the result of the player's action in game? I'm not necessarily talking intepretative dialogue or story paths but of in New Vegas there's only one 'courier' and in Torment only you can be TNO.

No idea on that particular monster. The store assets displayed in the trailer is a mix of placeholders and stuff I'll 100% be using if I can.

As a solo, I don't care if people bash me over using store assets. It's what they're for.

Actually, unironically yes. But in a way that makes sense when you have gangs with certain ethnic backgrounds.

The player character is inherently important (because reasons) but you start as a nobody and you're not forced into any sort of role.

Yeah, that's all we need is for people to come around here who don't do anything but ******* shill their games. The Codex already has several people who do that and we already have a bunch of eaters who do nothing but register to download mods.

Coomer things in a Cyberpunk + vampires thing are in my opinion very fitting to give that feeling of dirty decadence and a corrupt world. Just from the trailer it "feels" more Cyberpunk than what CDPR ended up putting out. I am actually interested, something that is getting rarer for me these days for anything newly released or soon-to-be, loving the atmosphere, animations and the story+narrative potential!
It does seem very ambitious with some of its systems, but then again I am no developer. I hope you can pull it off and be successful with it! :heart:

Thank you for existing! :bounce:
