So yeah, now this is a thing.  Lingutrax is a speech therapy system that can freely add and remove the Ditz Speech and Brute Speech perks.

French omlettes... *drools*

Ok back to insanity... damn that goes so fast. So recently we were talking about french food and bimbo/stud talk versions and here you comed with...hmm not entirely TF as it not change PC like TF or does it? thing that allow gain loose those perks. And I eally like this item ^^

I like that silly mode note.

Now one thing I thought over. It's for those who not had Treatment or took Dumbfuck so will this item affect those with perks gained from those two TF? I mean like it will cause Treated PC to loose Ditz/Brute Speech or it only work (both gaining perks and loosing them) on non treated/dumbfucked characters?

Finally I won't have to cheat when I need to create a non-Ditz Treated character. Thanks, Couch.

However, why 'data cards'? I don't think that TiTS has an established and accepted canon for data storing/transferring technology, but IMO that sounds not-sci-fi-enough.

Well Hand So however you want see her it just tons of data and she is carried on data bead. So some type of data storing items we already got ingame.

Meant to be like a swappable microSD card.  Data beads have been mentioned as some kind of ultra high-capacity storage medium, but only once.

I think this should be a endgame thing from a psionic therapist character, rather than just a subliminal sleep tapes.

Not gonna lie, when I saw the "Lingua" part I was hoping it was a place where you could get your face sat on to make credits, sorta like blowing people for haircuts in CoC.

Gating something that affects dialogue behind being at the end of the game and thus having already been through all the dialogue seems counterproductive.

Well Brute speech and Ditz speech was something that is locked behind very punitive transformatives, it makes sense that it would be endgame to unlock the non-punitive versions.

I think that Brute/Ditz Speech normaly is gated after two specific TFz not mean it should be unaccesable other way only at endgame. It feels almsot like saying psionics can be gained two ways. One which will make many people not want take it (aka something in vein of treatment) or other but this one will mean we neeed already beat all story bosses first.

It's true that many talk scenes can be repeated but after finishing say...6-7 planets from main plot I would actualy not feel much inclined to go back to any of them for sake of read again slight modfied dialogue. So either only keep Brute/Ditz Speech behind Treatment/Dumbfuck or allow get it in way Couch (I not think it woukd be cheap item either so not much chances that fresh made chara would buy it right of the bat).

Actually, since both of the current methods of gaining Brute/Ditz Speech are available very early, it'd make sense to have an item that would allow PC to customize their characters further as a readily available thing.

I'm assuming you never watched cartoons as a kid. In the thread talking about ditz/brute, Couch's words:

Quote said:
Might have an idea on how to fix that.  Language courses anyone?

Just avoud the French one.  There's a known issue regarding cheese omelettes.
It's a call back to an episode of Dexter's Lab, The Big Cheese. To save me barfing words, look it up.

This item is amazing and I really hope it gets coded into the game. I already tend to use minerva to pull of a similar effect cause the linguistic changes are the major barrier to my appreciation of the treatment. I love the physical changes it brings about but that damn brute/bimbo speech kills my boner...
