>Hand So getting way out of line and picking on Reaha
I hope that reminding her of the way she flew off the rails when faced with the loss of clear-cut direction is one of the options the player may choose.

If that's the reason, fine. But that should be stated very clearly.
The Codex specifically states the Treatment is not a permanent physical and mental alteration? Where is that at?
Exactly this. And bimbofication is supposed to be the infinitely more likely option.
Is this actual canon or simply a mechanical concession for game balance?
Is there substantiation for why the Treatment is permanent? I genuinely don't know.
If that's the reason, fine. But that should be stated very clearly. That way, we can have the canonical knowledge that someone that vehemently opposes the Treatment and is subsequently force-Treated for whatever reason could be returned to normal by... I dunno, maybe friends/family/witnesses that know the individual in question did not want to be Treated, even if their Treated self says otherwise?
And then the great thing is, even if the Treatment was undone and the individual's opinion of the Treatment had actually changed after taking it, they could just go and consent to it at a later date.
So many issues are solved by acquiescing to the fact that the Treatment isn't "permanent" so much as it's "very convincing."
I feel like it would make the whole concept a lot more palatable, and wouldn't really infringe on the fetishes it caters to or the people that like them. But that's just me...
I think the permanency is merely fir the sake of catering to fans of the fetish its targeting. But personally I really, really wish there were some sort of treatment equivalent to the mental debimbo potion from CoC. Even if it remains impossible to completely cure the treatment, being able to at least unlock a way to mitigate some of the mental damage without needing to resort to save editing would make the treatment a lot more palatable to a lot of folks I imagine.
Probably both.
...Reading that made me think...she visits forums...what kinda forums does she visit? This could solve the mystery of her hobbies in the very least xD
The Nivas Oxonef fan forums, of course. Other than that she just watches porn.
Who? What?
@PyrateHyena: Dude, what are you talking about? Milkman was saying he wants the Treatment to be reversible.
The 75% figure is from the game code.
Yes and I do not get it. It makes no sense from my POV. Because
Yes, but it is still rare--that 75% chance is eligible only if the Steele's tone and femininity is at a certain threshold--otherwise, the bimbo variant is the most likely option. Regardless, these are the chances for the player character, as the chances for NPCs are highly varied based on who is writing them (anything can happen!). However, the consensus is that, overall, cowmazons produced from the Treatment are a rarity.
@PyrateHyena: I still don't understand. Milkman said he wishes the Treatment was reversible. You said you can get a bunch of the Treatment's effects via other methods. For all we know Milkman doesn't Treat his PCs or want them to be cow-like. With that said I always Female Treat my PC because I like the idea of it.
With the girl and her mom?
This is how we turn TiTS into CoC.
What I do not get is, why it should be reversible from a player (as the person that plays) POV.
With that said, I suppose the actual canon is that it's rare, but doesn't matter since writers will write their NPCs however they want anyway.
More power to the player? Being able to try different variants without save scumming? Like save editing your money is cheating (none that anyone's going to lecture you for that), but save editing an irreversible thing is more for convenience. At least in this context.
she's 3 NPC's out right now, like literally 2018 material at best
A heavy concentration of cowmazons at T's ranch might even be able to be explained away by the fact that he's the leader-guy. Cowmazons seem pretty capable and competent, more so than the average Treated, so if there was going to be a concentration of them anywhere, it would be where all the important stuff happens. In my mind, at least.
As others have said, the reason why more of them crop up is because amazons tend to be a bit more interesting to write, with a greater scope of interactions with different PCs. If ever I feel the need to do more bimbo stuff I could pretty much use Carrie and Cora in perpetuity, I don't much see the need to create more vanilla Treated females (aside from the satiating the ultimate bro-bull-douche fantasy of doing, like, six of them at the same time). Whereas with Ramis it felt like there was a bit of a niche that hadn't been done to death yet.
There are no proper fem!Treated PC level bimbos in the whole NT character roster.
So I have to ask, and this really just comes from me being ignorant, but how is Amazon Reaha supposed to be attained? My understanding is that she gets the Cowmazon Treatment, but I was also under the impression that she hated the Treatment with a passion. Do you just convince her to do it, or does she get super-stacked via another method?
- Player has to finish curing Reaha so we get that shit out of the way.
- When exploring career options, bring up her military service. Reaha presumably complains that she's too soft for that now.
- Player can go to Cynthia and bring it up, bring her back to the ship to meet Reaha. Three-way sex scene that helps Reaha come to appreciate how hot Cynthia's beefcake figure is.
- Player pays out some credits, gets a slightly adjusted dosage of Holstaria made for Reaha.
- Reaha gets her Treated appearance along with a hefty dom streak awakening from the sense of power, enough so that her Treated scenes aren't out of character. Without Treatment backing it up, this ego boost is likely rather more fragile, putting her in more of a switch position. Essentially you get a mix of Cured and Treated.
The reason I wanted to bring it up now, before Treated Reaha was written, is to avoid it being a tacked-on expansion that requires going back and editing in branches later.
Is there substantiation for why the Treatment is permanent? I genuinely don't know.
Well at least she's compatible with my Steele then xD
How are you defining that, exactly? Because Amma, Carrie, Cora and Millie all exist.
Bug pony is awesome. I'll fight you in real life right now.
But hey, Aina and the Dryad are also pretty good.
All of those lovely ladies display only a moderate amount of carefree attitude and absent-mindedness, and while they have high libido, they don't possess a one-track mind. Millie is also forceful enough to be considered closer to Amazon side of the Treatment spectrum.
So none of them are, strictly speaking, bimbos.
*screams*
NUKE OPTION WHEN
Her Cured expansion also mentions her going to online support groups for New Texan refugees.
Yeah, there's a 0% chance of ever convincing Reaha to voluntarily take the Treatment.
For a while my plan was to have the PC basically force-Treat her (and then get a Very Angry, Very Buff Cow that breaks your pelvis for revenge).
If you stay overnight, New Texan jackboots will arrive and literally drag Reaha off in the night. The implication being one of her sisters, or her mother, turned her in. So it's still very much forced, but not done (intentionally) by the PC.
