At the moment, when you attempt to learn a skill, you have to question a monster. If your intelligence is not significantly high, you will ask a simpler question and receive a response which may be completely useless to you with regards to gameplay. The monster will then never accept a question until the map resets. This is obviously awful, so I've worked to improve this system without making it stupidly easy to learn skills.
Firstly, you now have a chance of asking the appropriate question ("Can you teach me anything useful?") every time. This chance increases as your intelligence increases, so there's still lots of motivation to keep your intelligence high.
Secondly, the check to see if you successfully learn the skill is no longer solely based on your intelligence. It's based on your intelligence and one other relevant stat, depending on the skill you're trying to learn. So you can often have a decent chance of learning the skill even if your intelligence is horrible. The second stat that is used is often a negative stat - for example, begging for mercy gets easier to learn the higher your sex addiction is. Wanking is easier to learn the higher your humiliation is.
Lastly, after five minutes, monsters will now be open to another question. Not only this, but every time your raw intelligence increases, this cooldown is reduced by three minutes. So even if you fail to get the skill with your first question, never fear! Come back in a bit and ask again!
So, as you can see, intelligence is still extremely beneficial, but not 100% necessary to learn skills.
Great news!
ReplyDeleteHave you ever considered adding some bondage interactions? Like some monsters adding restraints on player, which limit actions, some ways to remove them, maybe a struggle out skill, etc?
Bondage already exists in the game, currently the only way that monsters apply them is if you steal from the shop and it's a royal guard that catches you. Currently the only way to get them removed is by getting them blessed.
