QSP Abandoned Jack-o-Nine-Tails [v2.2.3] [Old Huntsman + Community development]

[RedGreen3]

My character's stats are decaying on a custom start on easy mode. I don't think that's supposed to happen? Here's a save if you need it. Playing the latest dev version.

Edit: My slave and assistant can cook and practice cooking in the slums on normal mode. Doesn't happen on extreme or easy mode. Was this changed for normal only?

Your saved game is not in the slums...? Which stats are decaying? Assuming you upgraded your saved game, maybe you overlooked this change log:

rebalanced slaver stat and skill progress thresholds (many increased, few decreased) to extend progression and make starting choices more impactful (slaver stats in saves loaded from previous versions will be recalculated)

Yes, I overlooked that message. I have no idea what caused the cooking in the slums thing because I can't replicate it after updating to the newest version. I could even buy groceries. The game was extremely deep in a directory, to the point where Windows wouldn't move the game there unless I edited the folder name containing the game. I have since moved the game to a different directory. I wonder if that has something to do with it.

4x rent

In Outcasts you get a free barn, so you can add an egglayer to generate 100+ sparks passive income. Can add a cow and even grow pigs if you want.

With high enough guild rep (B+ or better) you can send multiple slaves to arena battles, which also helps. And a race grand champion will eventually bring in more than 50 for prize money.

Selling C+ at auction with multiple specializations should bring in enough to cover rent until you can train at least up to B+.

Using a dungeon to raise fear shortens the disobedient phase. You can soften up a new slave while finishing another, or alternate. Getting a home cryo portal costs 20$ per decade but saves you travel energy, so if you are not using the tavern for meals it’s a good deal.

 

[ImperatorAugustusTertius]

Also as I remembered, Augustus, considering our previous conversation, guild does NOT have embargo on buying, they have embargo on selling since you can only sell hand to hand if slave branded and you are the registered representative of that brand, I assume it is to prevent kidnappings and infiltrators, which is quite logical. So my point is that auction literally sells slaves for pennies to anybody, guess that shows how crazy Supply is. Which technically means you could buy a slave, train her and then register your brand at guild and to prevent you from selling fakes/assassins you have to work your reputation and connections. But its w/e, just wanted to point that out to ponder.

They have a monopoly on the sale, yes. But that also extends to barter trade. A slave cannot be transferred legally from one owner to another without guild involvement in the transaction. Note the slave market is operated by the guild…

 

[ImperatorAugustusTertius]

can you get kicked out if you sell to them while in Serpentine? The only thing that can cuck me while stalling in the slums is brand reputation and mood debuff, dunno how fast it raises and how brutal the debuff is, guess will see.

Also does accounting of assistant cuts rent, or only living standard?

No, you won't be kicked out. There's only one mood debuff you'll be stuck with a while, from living standard. Interior design gets rid of "decrepit hovel." Only "other expenses" are affected by accounting discount.

 

[ImperatorAugustusTertius]

Are additional rooms cost also 4x or nah?

For the mood debuff, it's just whether you have enough "premium" design sets for the rooms in your home.

Extended rental cost is 4x normal.

So, there is something I just noticed with the Colosseum regarding the races and fights.

When you specifically go out to watch or participate in a race or a fight the timer for the next opportunity starts on that very day but if you don't interact with it or you have your slave participate in a fight the timer only starts on the next day instead meaning that it's 11 days instead of 10.

The easiest way to test this is to create a new character and than either watch the race or ignore it and skip ahead 10 days and than see if it's day 12 or day 13 when it next is available and you can do this same thing regarding the fights.

Not sure if this is intended or if someone brought this up before but it's odd enough that I thought to point it out incase it is a mistake.

Drifting dates has been a thing as long as I recall, but I never noticed that this was the cause.

your assistant is losing obedience for reasons that you'll have to crawl six previous release notes to figure out."

After internal discussions, we don't know that it's possible.

Could it be that the devoted assistant feeling guilty, once placed back as as a slave, was misinterpreted as a loss of obedience?.

 

[RedGreen3]

Is the girl's hair in the image gangbang_purple_long_milf purple? It looks red to me. Although it is the only gangbang image for purple milfs. Maybe it's just a really weird shade of purple? My slaves are still feeling guilty for poor diligence on easy mode. Was this changed back?

What is your obedience difficulty setting under the options menu? It’s disabled based on that being set to easy, not the game difficulty you chose at the start.

Wow that's a lot of updates

How far away is the release of the stable version? It seems like something new is getting added every couple of days

Depends. We’re play-testing these versions with the goal of stabilization. Fixing bugs and making small improvements along the way.

lol what's up with the abandoned tag?

Probably automatic, we were not contacted to confirm or infirm.

I've seen it happen on other threads when there are no version update for too much time. In JONT's case, the abandoned tag makes no real sense.

JONT is completed, not abandoned. Similar to Skyrim; content, bugfixes and balance patches keep being added, but you wouldn't call it abandoned in between the gap of updates that occur 13 years after the initial, complete release.

In our case, the constantly updated alpha version is playable by all, and active devs reply on the thread every day.

And stable version release is right around the corner, when ImperatorAugustus finishes his bugtesting 0 start playthrough, and that no bug/balance report have been sent to us for several days after that.

What is with mods? I thing this game has so much potential!

It's borderline. I see it purple, especially since in JONT, red-heads range from dark red to orange.

I'll see if I can slightly increase the purple without touching the skin. If not, I think keeping it as is, is fine.

All mods that we know about and were not breaking lore or gameplay have been seemlessly integrated, and bugfixed. The moo mod that expends the barn for example, or image packs.

This got abandoned? Weird....
