Hello you wonderful deviants,I wanted to get your input on how the the broader team should be effected by the temporary stat changes when you "interact" before going out to Adventure.In short, there will be a negative and positive impact - you can read more about that HEREPlease note the balance of that post will require review, it does not account for all the stats given how things have changed, and although Idea 2 won the poll with 56% to 44% the more i thought about it, I think I will be going with Idea 1 - the reason why is that a very valid point someone made was that in Idea 2, it would only incentivize doing the last 3 positions, given the negative is only a chance.
But I digress, what I wanted to ask is how it should affect the team - You can choose MULTIPLE, choose the ones you would be happy with, and if it is only one - only choose one.Option 1 - Only the Maiden who interacts with the Protagonist gets the stat changes - as they are feeling particularly loved, and euphoric.
Option 2 - The Maiden you interact with + the Protagonist get the stat changes as they were the ones who "interacted"
Option 3 - All current party members get the stat changes as maybe just hearing or seeing the chosen Maiden and Protagonist interact is enough for them to feel "empowered"
Option 4 (JUST AN IDEA FOR NOW) - With those three options in mind and being the primary, I wanted to float one last idea - one thing i was considering was a "Jealousy" meter. It would be a secret meter that would build up and reset for each maiden in your current party if you keep choosing not to "interact" with them.The concept would be, Maiden 1 is in your party, and you choose to interact with Maiden 2, This puts Maiden's hidden jealousy meter up by 1. You interact with the Maiden 3, that would put Maiden 1's meter up again, and again until you interact with them, and it resets. But if it reaches say 5, they only inherit the negative effects of the temporary changes.
