Soulsplitter is quite OP and had me sweating even with Regen and Defensive Stance, and poison damage can get ridiculous if you don't have a mushroom, perhaps first aid has a chance to cure poison, although with the way the mobs spam sting, the bomb etc, that might not matter much.
Pummel, too on that note, especially when I'm an exhibitionist, in defensive stance with a lewdness of 52 or less, and they hit me for 11, 7, 5, or some variation that has 11 in there, or more. Especially when your regen is low and you are only getting 7 to 9. Later on when I was hitting the Dullahans I was regenerating for 10, but that 30 some odd Soulsplitter combined with the chained heavy hits hurts. Even the Golem was not that tough a fight. Maybe make sure that mob always drops a healing herb to replace the one you use fighting it.
Some fights turned into a lewd battle, I taunt for 20, they do something to me for 17, I taunt for 19 they hit me for 17, I taunt for 17 they hit me for 17, until I could get my lewdness down to where I had a fairly good chance of succeeding with an attack or first aid. (That bothered me, first aid failing due to lewdness, sometimes you got to buckle up or unbuckle if it's a difference between showing some flesh or dying, I had a few close fights before I picked up taunt. (So maybe I should have picked it up earlier? Maybe so, but still)
The flint and weapons are a nice touch, I would like a way for you to replace the bow with the dagger or vice versa without losing the equipped weapon if you have availible slots. I accidentally replaced a 6 durability bow with a 4 or 5 durability dagger and was rather irritated at myself.
I ran into an error when I load a saved game shortly before the 2nd "You sense something dangerous ahead message" the game goes to a black screen on me, so that save is pretty much fubar I think. I could not upload the save as a .sav so I had to rar it to attach, perhaps that will help you trouble shoot the issue.
Map looks great, I also love the % explored info, and of course the new mobs, keep up the good work!
Nice idea for the exhibitionist skill, it would justify the cost more too.
Yeah, currently the shrooms are the only thing that give you some defense against getting status ailments and they only last 3 turns, I have plans to add skills that will decrease the chances you will get poisoned/confused so those may help.
Balancing this is pretty hard, it's a work in progress and your feedback is helpful. I considered making first-aid exempt from failing, I wanted to see how it would go if it could though, but maybe it does make things a bit hard.
Dullahan actually drops Power Fruits which heal and raise a stat, but I guess the drop rate is too low, I'll try raising it so there is more of a reward when beating her. A powered up Tackle really helps against her (attack stance after you raise her LP a bit, then change to defensive)
Taunt is a important skill because it's really your only lewd attack in the game right now, I'm thinking of just giving it to the player by default until I add more skills that can be learned, I think stronger lewd attacks would help here to prevent that back and forth lewd attack with the enemy. Not using taunt will make the game very hard, since raising enemy LP makes you do more damage to them too.
I downloaded your save file and loaded it just fine, no black screen. Kinda makes me uneasy cause I'd like to fix it lol. Any other info you could give me so that I can replicate it?
Again thanks for the amazing feedback, posts like yours are a big reason why I want to put out updates.
