I Think I already brought this up in some small capacity in another post on this thread, but I really would like to see all of Viviane's more unique items being usable on specific characters. Enemies, allies, neutral parties, it's all the same to me. It just feels like the massive potential they have is limited by the fact that only the pc can use them.

Most characters who are not the Champion do not have a full stat block and all of their descriptive text is written by hand rather than being a whole mass of parser calls. That means that any scene using transformative accessories would also have to be written by hand, for every variation you might want to do. Needless to say, this is not a small undertaking. There's a reason that Companion TFing is limited to a set number of variables that their writers can plan around. Once you start trying to apply that to a broader selection of characters the amount of text would skyrocket.

Now, I think that if someone wanted to write a new NPC focused around the use of these items it would probably be accepted if it's done well enough and I could see maybe a specific scene or two written for existing characters and a particular item (assuming their writers are okay with it) but I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for anyone else to do that.

I think an easy point of reference for how much additional work it would take to even approach the minimum required effort to do that is the comparison of the blurbs in the manticore nip TF (a TF I wrote specifically to the maximum capabilities of the parser system as a proof of concept) and their respective parsers relative to the text of a normal TF:
Normal TF:

You suddenly feel a sense of power, like every muscle in your body is getting supercharged! You stretch yourself out, feeling your muscles tighten and grow, becoming more and more visible with each passing second. <b>You haven't actually gotten any stronger, but you definitely <i>look</i> like you are!</b>

Manticore Nip version:

[char.isPC|You suddenly feel a sense of power, like every muscle in your body is getting supercharged!|You see [char.name] begin to move with a little more power in [char.hisHer] step.] [char.combatName] stretch[tps|es] [char.combatHimselfHerself] out, feeling [char.isPC|your|their] muscles tighten and grow, becoming more and more visible with each passing second. <b>[char.combatNames] ha[tps|s|ve]n't actually gotten any stronger, but [char.isPC|you|they] definitely <i>look</i> like [char.isPC|you|they] are!</b>

That's just for a minor increase in tone. Imagine what it's like for something like this from the Shield of Brawn:

As you deflect the worst of [attacker.combatNames] blow, you feel a surge of energy radiate up your arm and through your body. It feels as if your very muscles are surging and growing beneath your [pc.gear], strengthened and invigorated by the absorbed impact. Your shoulders widen, filling out your [pc.armor] even further. Not even your face escapes these changes. Your facial features sharpen, your jaw becomes more chiseled, and your eyebrows straighten. As the energy settles, you're left with a feeling of pride; [party.hasCompanions|not only did you lessen the force of a blow, you shouldered an attack that may well have hit [party.som|your companion|a companion]!]<b>You're now more fit and more masculine!</b>

 

[Stupid_Goo]

Needs more parsers.
Please don't hurt me, Balak.

But yeah, looks annoying and painful to do for several dozens of items. And still sucks we can't have a full manticore's tailcunt even if it's just a description and you can't really use it - and it's also likely a nice big indicator that a tailcock likely won't happen either.

 

[Squirrelwagon]

tailcock likely won't happen either

Nevermind the tailcock, how often is the Champ offered the option to tailpeg someone? Tailcock also producing cum would be annoying to account for... Like, it's a lot to consider when a significant portion of players don't play a Champion with a tail.

Heathens I tell ya.

Often torn into pieces amongst four arms (which will never happen because people wanna use them for combat), tail/s and having both.

Being a weirdo sucks sometimes, having wonderful ideas only to be told it won't happen because too much work or you're in the minority...

Ideas are only as good as people willing to implement them.

yeah I could definitely see anything beyond some very sparse usage getting totally bloated extremely fast. Which in a way I kinda meant to acknowledge and then just, didn't? when I say have them be usable I do absolutely mean within the context of a few specific scenes. I'd have to either have straight up no idea how game development works or be the most entitled bitch in the fucken seven seas to want any more than that. As for writing a character based around one of the items, I'll probably take a crack at it whenever I work up the nerve.

 

[Quicksilver Tongue]

Collectively, it's longer than A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones (including the side stories).

It wouldn't be nearly so long if not for the gratuitous excessiveness and purpleness of the writing. I know, some people would say that's the point, I'm not saying every scene needs to be boiled down to a paragraph, but three-page long romance novels are excessive for all but the most story-crucial encounters.

 

[ShifterDreams]

id love to see some owl people perhaps a snowy owl based one or basically just more bird people in general though i would love a non harpy bird tf that has back wings and a bird tail!
for a anthro version of taeleer's to tf into
maybe also a anthro deer tf item
also i know we have the fox berry what about some anthro fox npcs id love to romance a arctic fox anthro
and lastly id love to marry kohaku she is my top kitsune (sorry kiyoko) or at least make her part of my haram or even have my kits and speaking of the kitsune a male kitsune to romance

 

[Stupid_Goo]

maybe also a anthro deer tf item

Did I hear someone say satyrs?

fox npcs id love to romance a arctic fox anthro

... Glowing Ice Shard is the arctic fox TF.

I would like a proper set of mage robes at some point.

I mean we now have an enormous variety of weapons already yet I'm still running around in my start-the-game apprentice robes because they have the highest combined evasion and ward. Meanwhile the other armors are rather uninteresting (or transform you like the witch set for example).

Maybe we can raid Mathia's closet during Berwyn Quest 2? She sould have some appropriate stuff...

 

[Shmebulock]

I want a Lupercalia, and I want a spank-based fertility increase for all the interested folks of Hawkethorne. Let me keep a wolf mask for afterwards as a souvenir.

I mean, religious festivals should be an integral part of life in a backward town such as Hawkethorne... even if Carmen is the sort of vampire that sucks all the fun out of things.

And now that I think about it...

If you ever played Sunless Sea and visited Visage, there's some good inspiration there. If you haven't, coughSavincough, go play it. Thoroughly recommended.

I would like a proper set of mage robes at some point.

I would like an improper and outrageous set of mage robes. All style, no function.

 

[Lucky_I]

A sentient weapon like Modwyr from Pillars of Eternity 2, but WAY more sexual. And the more you fight with it and the longer you have it equipped, the stronger it can get or have events that can make it stronger, what have you. We've had sentient armor like Nova in TiTS or the other one in CoC1, I think a weapon would be a neat and freakier change.

"Sheathe me, you big stud! Sheathe me harder! Make me feel like a sword!"

 

[Lucky_I]

"Sheathe me, you big stud! Sheathe me harder! Make me feel like a sword!"

Basically. Talk about how right you hold their handle and such. Polish and sharpen them while naked or whatever. Basically like that "Gunplay" talk Steele asks Evening in TiTS, but like, for real this time.

Would it be possible to set it up so that people who buy the game on Steam get updates more often then people who are free play but less often then people that continuously support the game on patreonesque websites?

 

[LuciusCypher]

I wonder if it's possible to learn how to get your own Quasi-Mech suit from Kazuo. Maybe do enough quests for him and he'll teach you how to make a prototype of your own, and encourage you to use it frequently against the various beasties of the Frostmarches. I figured it would grant you a lot of defensive buffs, but comes with some drawbacks like being a once-per-battle ability, so you can lose it if you get stunned/proned, maybe a Thunder Weakness too. But still, magitech wood mecha would be awesome to have.

 

[WolframL]

Seeing how Patreon etc. supporters pay (at minimum) the same amount every two months that a Steam purchaser pays once, I wouldn't go holding my breath expecting this.

Magitech is a hard 'no' for the setting as a whole and that means none of that for the Champ. Kazuo's suit only passed muster because it's themed as organic technology rather than steampunk-style tech.

i ment a npc thats a anthro based on a arctic fox is what id like to see thats not a kitsune (and has nothing to do with raphael)

 

[Mizukage]

Well yeah, thats why I asked if it was possible to get it less often then them but more often then free players instead of something just really absurd like 'as often as patreon types'.

 

[Stupid_Goo]

Or you could just get a title on here that says "Steam Supporter" or sum'n.

 

[SmithEK]

I've been reading the very old threads on here and back in 2019 someone asked about Evergreen having our kids and being able to interact with them which Savin replied no unless someone wrote it.. while I usually only write fanfiction for Harry Potter (femslash), I would be interested in writing something as Evergreen is definitely my favourite npc and I can't get enough of her. Who does Evergreen character belong to? If she belongs to someone.

 

[Beem0b0t]

I think this is oddly specific and I'll admit I haven't looked through the myriad of previous replies, but I'd love to be able to invite characters like the Hellhound, Drider Queen, or even the Snake Woman to the Wayfort when it is complete. Maybe even Sariel or the thief Moth or Shar. Like make it a haven that can house several NPCs of the sort. Maybe they'd add some kind of benefit like Hellhound offering a bodyguard of sorts and Drider Queen web traps for invaders. I dunno. I guess I'm attached to those kinds of characters and wanna see more for them.

I mean the creators already made it so you can recruit a bunch of corrupt characters before they changed their mind on what the purpose of the Wayfort will be.
Would make sense to expand things on people being able to invite other kinds of guests to stay at your fort.

The steam version really is just about added convenience and for people who want to "donate" once instead of regularily.

I got it for both of those reasons.

Doesn't a place like Patreon instacharge you most of the time once you sub to someone so you could just unsub a day or two later?

Without the added benefit of having the game in my steam library complete with automatic updates, yes. I also don't have a patreon account.

She belongs to me. And yeah, feel free to try your hand at it. Submission guidelines are over in the Event Submissions forum~

Man, do I wish I had the budget, clout, and time-dilation powers to have every portrait with pregnancy with progression like this.

It'd be a great help with timing it so you arrive at birth. Or we could just have a stay until birth button.

Ah, well, see you next year.
