The New Beginning Update
Note: Hoooh boy, for a minor patch this is a big one! From now on I think it'd be nice if additions to the mod were listed separately from changes in the changelog, so folks have a clearer idea of what each patch is actually adding to the mod rather than having to pore through every line in the changelog. Whatcha think?
Additions:
Completely reworked all of Houndmaster's dialogue, skill names, barks, and afflictions. Further details below.
Rewrote, reworked, and rebalanced many of the town building activities with new specific dialogue instead of generic dialogue.
Added a new provision supply item: 'Fresh Cum'. An item that serves as emergency healing, at the cost of some lust gain.
Added a new affliction: 'Broody'. When a broody heroine hits her breaking point she can think of nothing but her desire for motherhood and pregnancy.
Added generic dialogue for all Broody interactions, to cover any heroine not supported by LL:E.
Added missing generic bark dialogue for afflicted pop-up chatter in the hamlet.
Added character-specific dialogue for just so, so many things. There will be more written words in LL:E than in Darkest Dungeon itself.
Added new skins and animations for the Bandit Hangman, who is now the Bandit Huntress, by DonGorbleone. Good for her, good for her.
Added new attacks for the Bandit Huntress and renamed old ones.
Added a new skill for the Brigand Mugger: Rowdy Flirting. When she's on the back row, she will flirt with your heroines instead inflicting a small amount of lust as she moves forward to reposition herself. You probably won't see this attack very often - only when she's pushed to the very back.
Added a new skill for the Brigand Gunwoman: Titty Drop. When's she in the front row she will flirt your heroines as she retreats, inflicting a small amount of lust. Just like Mugger's Flirt you probably won't see this attack very often - only when she's dragged to the very front.
Added a new icon for the caretaker when she is occupying a slot in a hamlet building.
Added a new icon for the Nomad Trinket wagon NPC when swapping between CoM Trinkets and normal trinkets.
Changes:
All food has been reverted back to food instead of cum. To maintain LL:E's lewdness, 'Fresh Cum' has been added as an optional provision that can be purchased before a quest.
Fetishes have been renamed back to Quirks. 'Fetish' isn't a word that correctly applied to all quirks in LL:E, but all fetishes could be considered Quirks, so the word 'Quirk' applies more accurately to all of them.
I've made the first wave of changes to the writing, refactoring the localisation strings on the backend. In the past a bunch of things had generic strings that would play no matter which character said them, but in future LL:E is going to have specific dialogue for absolutely everything depending on which character is saying it. It allows me to more tightly curate which heroine says what, allowing for further characterisation than the base game allows. This is an absolutely huge amount of work, and by the end of 1.9 there is going to be more dialogue in LL:E than in the base game itself! Exciting!
Updated descriptions of all afflictions.
Broody affliction now significantly reduces pregnancy resistance (-15% -> -75%).
Estrus affliction has been fixed and completely reworked into 'Broody'. In previous versions of LL it either didn't function at all because it was set up improperly, or broke the game with poorly-wrought birthing effects.
Broody affliction has a chance at the start of the turn for a heroine to: Say something that stresses the team, Mark herself, or Consume one food from your inventory.
Broody affliction has a chance to do the following on reaction: Reject healing (25%), Reject a buff (25%), Reject an item (25%), Comment on an ally being hit (25%), Comment on self missing (25%).
Rewrote Broody dialogue to match the new 'baby crazy' direction.
Changed 'Irrational' affliction to 'Depraved'. When a depraved heroine hits her breaking point her inner tastes are revealed to be unwholesome and unsettling.
Renamed 'Brigand Subjugator' to 'Brigand Mugger'.
Renamed Brigand Mugger's skills.
Brigand Mugger can now no longer apply pregnancies with her attacks.
Renamed 'Brigand Spermshooter' to 'Brigand Gunwoman'.
Brigand Gunwoman's 'Squirting Shot' renamed to 'Blunderbuss Broadside'.
Brigand Gunwoman's 'Rushed Squirt' renamed to 'Fumbling Shot'.
Renamed 'Bandit Hangman' to 'Bandit Huntress'.
Renamed Bandit Huntress's skills to fit the new artwork.
Updated Bandit Huntress's capture dialogue to fit her new appearance.
Renamed Houndmaster to Houndswoman.
Reworked the Houndswoman's backstory. Instead of being a detective and gendarme, the Houndswoman was a lawman's pet. When her master went missing she set out in his tracks, employing the aid of four-legged friend on her quest to find her master using all of his old tricks.
Renamed Houndswoman's skills.
Rewrote Houndswoman's dialogue, giving her specific dialogue lines for many many events that were generic before, furthering her characterisation.
Rewrote all of Houndswoman's affliction dialogue barks. Each of her afflictions is based on a different style of puppy play.
Reduced the chances of Houndswoman's on-attack dialogue playing.
Added many many specific barks for Houndswoman that were generic before. Seriously, so many.
Added more Dollmaid dialogue, giving her specific dialogue lines for many many events that were generic before, furthering her characterisation.
Added characterisation to Dollmaid's existing dialogue by removing all contractions from her speech.
Camping Skill 'Erotic Encouragement' renamed to 'Make Love'. This camping skill is now very explicit that the two heroines are boning down.
'Make Love' now heals both the performing heroine and the target for -15 Lust.
Camping Skill 'Cunnilingus Cleaning' is now 'Clean Up'.
'Clean Up' healing nerfed from 20% back down to the original 15%.
Camping Skill 'Sexual Stimulation' is now 'Mutual Meditation'.
'Mutual Meditation' reverted to base game behaviour (One target -15% Stress Buff).
Buffed 'Mutual Meditation' (One target -15% Stress Buff, and Self -15% Stress Buff).
Raised the cost of the Brothel, and reduced the odds of it giving money back. The Brothel is now approximately a 50/50 gamble, where the stress reduction is significantly worse but you have a chance to make more money back.
Reduced the average amount of money the Brothel makes by about 10-15%.
Added a small chance for the Brothel to give the player a huge amount of money.
Changed the description of the Brothel to reflect its new function.
Changed the loading screen tip of the Brothel to reflect its new function.
Gave characters specific dialogue for being committed to the Brothel. Only Houndswoman and Dollmaid so far, but all heroines going forward will receive these too.
'Exhibitionism' is now properly referred to as 'Burlesque Stage' in game, since it's supposed to represent a place, not an activity. Exhibitionism is what happens within the stage.
Added a chance for heroines to earn money at the Burlesque Stage.
Gave characters specific dialogue for being committed to the Burlesque Hall. Only Houndswoman and Dollmaid so far, but all heroines going forward will receive these too.
