DD#168 Civilization and Barbarism

Hi, everyone. Welcome to another week's developer's diary. We are taking a break from all those flesh and meat kinds of stuff (or maybe not.)

This week, we shall cover some more civilized topics (or maybe not).
When we talk about civilization, what's the first thing that comes to our mind? Sid'Meier? No, wait, we can't do that or maybe someone will sue me. So, let's cover something else. :P
That is the toilet!

The flush toilet, more than any single invention, has 'civilized' us in a way that religion and law could never accomplish. There are many toilets in the game. However, previously, they are all located in fixed locations and can only provide you with dirty water. That essentially makes our civilization progress hinted. Thus, let's fix this in this week's updates. First, they are now turned into furniture you can deploy anywhere. Second, they gained the real-life functionality that allows you to poop in them. You can select any of your teammates to create poop with toilets. With some effort, no matter what they ate yesterday, no matter how short time has passed since the last time they poop, they can eventually make some poops. Sometimes, it just requires more effort than other times. Some interesting text has also been added to the game to describe how much effort they spend on those toilets to just make such a makeshift biological weapon for you before a battle. Have fun! :)

Meanwhile, do you know who still does not have toilets yet? Oh well, according to a news report from The Moscow Times, there is still about 20% population in rural Russia does not have safe toilets. And, yet, Putin would rather spend money on missiles to attack hospitals and playgrounds in Ukraine. What a monster. No wonder some Russian Orc soldiers are stealing toilets in the game. The good news is, that you may now also find those stolen toilets after defeating them. :)

Alright, I am not going to write another 300 words about toilets. Let's move on to other content of this week.

Another major part of this week's updates is in Katan, the lawless town in the Sayinas Island. As a town with all kinds of people exiled from the sociality deep in a desert, it still feels way too civilized with those outlaw cowboys. It needs to be more savage and wild than this. Thus, in the Katan Desert, you may now find some Bandit Berserkers.


They worship blood gods. Instead of robbing people of wealth, they prefer murder and blood sacrifice. Thus, unlike some more civilized bandits, you can't negotiate with them or try to threaten them (that may sometimes make them even more excited.) They will also appear in procedurally generated dungeons set with bandit enemies. Thus, overall, they are making all those areas more dangerous than before.

However, more dangerous foes also mean more loot for you. Here you may even find which blood god they are worshipping.
Are you ready for the truth?

This religious book seems quite harmless. It seems to teach Confucianism, a quite harmless belief from ancient China that teaches people to be polite, maintain a high moral standard, be kind to others, and achieve harmony. What can be wrong?


EVERYTHING CAN GO WRONG!
There may be something lost in translation. So, here are the explanations. Confucianism teaches people to be “仁” (Ren) and “義” (Yi). Ren usually means kind and merciful while Yi usually means honorable and honest. However, if you look deep into those Chinese characters, you will find some dark secrets. "仁" can be cut into two characters "人" and "二", "人" means people, and "二" means two. Now, have you realized how horrible it is? "仁" basically can cut a person into two pieces! It's an ancient assassination technique! Now, what about "義"? It can also be cut into two characters "羊" and "我." This is a monstrous strength you can learn from the true teaching of Konfucius! Yes, those berserkers call him Konfucius (or Kong), not Confucius because that's much cooler and can distinguish them from those who failed to understand the "true" meanings hidden in the words! (If Game Workshop asks, it totally has nothing to do with Khorne. :P)
More historical facts: Confucius was actually a quite strong man when he was young. Some ancient books even claim he towers nine feet six inches or 2.8 meters tall! No wonder everyone is so willing to sit down to listen to his teachings. :P
As we now have two Confucianism heresies in the game now, (the other being the faith of Conrk and Monrk), I also added the original not-so-supernatural and crazy Confucianism to the game, otherwise, it may feel too weird. Anyway, in the game, it is what you want to believe matters.
As Confucius once said, "朝闻道,夕死可矣" means, "If you can learn the path to the truth in the morning, there shall be no regrets to die in the evening." (Or, it may also mean "If I learned how to get to my enemies in the morning, they would be dead in the evening!" by our friendly neighborhood bloody Kong worshipers. :P), all that matters is you have learned your path. (Or, slaughtered your enemies.)
This is just one of the possible blood gods the bandit berserkers worship. There will be even more. Some may be even more strange. After all, maybe, civilization is merely a facet to hide our cruelty. Yet, it's our humanity that makes us deny such primal bloodthirsty and become more than merely animals. Yet, everything can be interpreted in different ways.

Meanwhile, we also get more facilities in the Katan's Den of Pleasure. You can now access a part of the "Fall-from-Grace" brothel (no NSFW content so far.) You can also access to an Arena nearby. Both of them only have a little content right now. But, they will continue to get more.


Other updates include the optimation of combat UI, new prefixes that can adjust hatreds generated from damages, and allowing the drinks from Memory Distillers to carry over life experience.

That's for this week. More content will flow in just like the blood in the Arena. Blood for the Blood God!

DD# 167 Ah, Fresh Meat! Part 2

Hi, everyone. Welcome to another week's developer's diary.

Continuing from last week's update, we keep exploring other aspects of flesh and meat.

Let's get down to the contents:

First, let's see something mundane.
1, Zhao can now teach you cooking.
As we got Zhao appeared in the relationship menu last week, the relationship value shall have some actual usage in the game. So, here we are. We all know even though he has anger problems, he is still a good cook. Thus, of course, he can train you to be as good as him. It's free. But, each time you learn from him, he will enter a cooldown so that you can't just stand there farming cooking skill experience. With a higher relationship with him, you can gain more experience from him, and the cooldown will be shorter.

2, More Butchers.
The butchery system has been changed to be fully reusable in the code. Thus, we can get other butchers in the world other than Zhao. One interesting example is the doctor in Katan, namely Dr. Butcher. He got his infamous title because of never used anesthetic when he operated on his patients. Local folks called his hospital a slaughterhouse and him the butcher. But, can he really be a butcher? Well, you can ask him about that.

3, Butchers shall have different skills.
If butchers cannot produce more meat than you directly hunting animals in the wild, then why bother? Thus, I changed it so that butchers may give you multiple portions of meat depending on their skill levels. For example, Zhao is quite skilled. Thus, sometimes he may give you three pieces of meat instead of one if you get lucky. However, there are other butchers even though not so skilled, who may still yield better outcomes than directly hunting animals in the wild.

Those are the continuous development of the butchery system. Now, let's go for something spiritual.
1, Pescetarianism

Of course, eating a lot of meat or even only eating meat is quite unhealthy, thus, some people try to avoid eating land-based meat while consuming fish instead. Some others do the same thing but for cultural or religious reasons. Such is the Pescetarianism. Historically, it was a common practice in ancient Japan.

2, Veganism

Going one step further, in order not to harm or exploit any animals, we get Veganism. It further limits the food source one can take to be in line with this tenet. Certainly, it provides more health benefits. In the game, it's shown as negative effects resistance. However, here is a catch. During my research, I found a recent study from Stanford University this year revealed: " Women who switch to vegan diets see their libido levels increase by up to 383%." Wow! That's something unexpected and interesting. So, I added a slight bit of horny resistance reduction here just for some nasty thinking that came into my mind. :P

Followers of both Pescetarianism and Veganism will lose devotion if they eat food against those tenets. However, this is just a soft cap, not a hard one. The game will not fully stop you from eating meats if you add them to your customized belief system. In the secret war against unspeakable horrors, there are desperate times. Maybe you are just a few health points and one good meal away from taking down some cosmic horrors. You can always save the world first and make amendments to your faith later. But, what if someone wants to go all the way down to a darker path? Let's continue our spiritual searching.

3, Ritual Cannibalism (Updated!)

In previous versions, this tenet only affects the skill of "devouring corpse." Now, as our system expanded and covered more types of meat (which of course includes human flesh) and the dishes that contain those types of meat. The faith tenet has now been updated with more features. It now covers all food sources that are considered human flesh. Meanwhile, many enemies such as the Possesseds and the fire imps may now drop religious books that can unlock this tenet. (Previously, the tenet can only be unlocked if you have tasted the flesh by yourself.)

Yet, all those are nothing compared to what comes next:
The updates on Dr. Kyofu! It has been a while since she got new content the last time. Why now and what is happening?
1, She now sells potions and other interesting items.
Well, that's not very exciting.

2, Among those items, she sells Butcher Machines!

It's a new furniture item. Thus, you can carry it around deploy it anywhere, and use it any time. Basically, you get a pocket butcher that allows you to do the butchery on the run. However, the machine may not be as skilled as certain butchers. Thus, it may give you less meat.

3, Memory Distiller
Consuming the flesh is too mundane for your taste? No problem, with some dark science from our mad doctor, we can achieve much more!

This dark machine can extract the memory of its victim, and turn that memory into a kind of liquid that you can drink.

By drinking it, you can relieve part of the memory of its victim, the pet you sacrificed, and gain experience from it. I am not just talking about the common experience, you can also gain weapon proficiency experience, and elemental proficiency experience, and there may be more to come! There are many use cases of these devices. Some wild creatures naturally have some levels of certain experiences such as those undead Russian skeleton soldiers that may come with some firearm proficiency, you can distill them right away, and drink them to enhance your or any of your teammate's firearm experience. You may also find better pets during the game, you can now use this device to make them level up much faster by sacrificing some old pets you no longer wanted. More details can be found on the game's wiki page. It's ruthless but efficient. The choice is yours.

However, all powers may come with some costs. When you experience the lost memory of the victim of the distilled memories, there may be side effects. Meanwhile, if you butcher too many pets or turn too many pets into those liquids, you may find your karma slowly drifting to evil. Even if you only do it once, you will no longer be qualified to adopt pets from an animal-loving organization. All choices come with consequences. Are you ready for that before going down this dark path?


Some other updates of this week include a connection between certain ingredients and the dishes made from them regarding applying and removing special effects. It's not widely used right now. But, the system is in place and will be useful in the future. We also have some small content updates in Hottle with more background history of this town and some other small content updates in Katan that prepare for what will come next.

That's for this week. Once again, Bon appétit.

The full update log of this week:

English
############Content###############
[Zhao Sandao]If you have a good relationship with Zhao, you can now learn cooking skills from him. There is a cool-down.
[Zhao Sandao]A higher relationship value with Zhao can increase the cooking skills EXP you can gain from him each time.
[Zhao Sandao]A higher relationship value with Zhao can decrease the cool-down time between each time you can learn cooking skills from him.
