How will nier find out how to acquire more abilities?
Originally I said "every night you will unlock them" but I wasn't sure about that and changed it. I can change it back to explain how he unlocks the powers with "and for the next two nights you will unlock the other two abilities."
What is the sleepwalker finding out? I'm assuming it is just extra flavor.
It's extra flavor. We are going to send messages like "The player you visited is a great follower of rule X" and "The player you visited has broken rule x" :( With the rules we use largely being the more nonsense rules from
this list to make it clear it means absolutely nothing in the game.
For example we will have some have violated rule 2,078 which is just that boys born on December 3rd have to continually watch quicksand. We won't say what the rules are, just their numbers, unless you think it might be a good idea to link to the list since they are going to have to look it up anyways. XD
Hammerer should just hammer if they are off the wagon and do nothing if they are already on it. Just make sure it isn't active on my/lylo
Good idea. That means the player and mods only have to worry about when the hammerer is on a non-train. It might even encourage them to vote on which ever is the leading train just to prevent themselves from having to move there.
And fish vendor, with an o
Fixed it LOL
With the gossip hider, it's supposed to be just one hide behind scum that kills them right?
We thought that made him too much of a soft cop as he'd be able to green check whoever he visited every time he lived. As a result we changed it that he has to visit two non-town (mafia team, two neutrals, and Kaine the miller.) before he dies. He doesn't know the number, so that if he does die, people won't know how many people he visited were actually scum. It'd give some breathing room for scum that way.
That means if his player visited three people and then dies, three of those people are now suspects. If one of them is Kaine, then that makes things even more tricky. c: The suspect grows the more townies his player visits before dying. XD
The hunter, I'd call it a bounty hunter, but I wonder if it's too hard. I know people talked about the neutral during stardew valley where they had to predict the death that day. Finding multiple people and getting them offed might be hard, maybe require them to "personally" kill (read: lunched) one after getting them marked? And survivor status if it doesn't work out?
That does sound reasonable. We could make it that he has the scent check, but he also gets to pick a player to lunch. If that player is lunched that day, he voted for them, and they are from facade he gets to leave the game. The scent check helps him find facade flavors to lunch, but then he has to convince town to lunch them.
However, one of the three facade members is a bodyguard and will die if her player protects someone from a kill. That means he'd largely only have two players to find and lunch making it a bit harder. The one thing going for his player however, is that since the facade players won't know he is hunting them, they may reveal their flavor when talking about their role.
I don't know if the King of Facade would since he is a triggered vigilante, but if neun gets in trouble for sleepwalking, his player may have to out himself.
What do you think about this
@Verelios ?
And now I've gone back to consider fake roles since Mafia has them in Conspiracy 2 *sigh*
I suggested in this thread that most of these fake claims actually kind of work with the mafia roles. In this post to be exact.
Sort of just realized that with the way I worded the tavern owner, shadowlord might be able to claim to be a JOAT like his power says since the player could BS some shit about the flavor indicating the different abilities he has. XD
Also sort of realized that the role fisher will be able to counter any claim other than what they have already if he actually correct hits them.
Using the switcher shot at the right time and the huge player pool might help combat this though.
Also Gretel has an out because she has the same role as Roc which is hunter, she can claim to be a robot hunter if she picks Gideon. XD
Edit: Thinking about it, I actually realized that the scum team might be able to line up their abilities with the fake claims which might counter the role fisher except for the fact that town would naturally be suspicious of town having two roleblockers and two role cops. At the very least it might cause a thunderdome if the town version has been suspicious enough.
Anyways how they match up in my head
Gideon of the Junkyard= Gretel of lost shrine and Hunter, can claim to be a robot hunter. Would freak out Beepy player. XD
The Tavern Owner in Home Town = Shadowlord and JOAT, can claim JOAT abilities are mostly useless and unverifiable. Switcher shot is still usable since town can have that ability sometimes, but only if it's safe to do so.
The Mayor of Aerie= Grimore Noir the Black Book and Role Cop, can claim that he has dealt with enough troublesome outsiders that he knows what profession someone is.
The Blacksmith in Seaport = Hansel of lost shrine the roleblocker, can claim that he's so strong due to his work that he's able to restrain players.
EDIT EDIT: Noir can also claim the blacksmith saying that his time selling weapons has caused him to get a good read of people.
Hansel can claim the Mayor maybe claiming that he nags people to leave until they do which prevents them from being able to get any actually work done.
By having them claim their actual role with the fake flavors, it'd serve as a counter to the role fisher if he actually gets a hit on them. And of course scum doesn't have to take our fake flavor suggestions. Geno gave scum fake flavor and roles to claim, but some scum still didn't use them so it's on them if the role fisher actually gets a hit. XD
Flavor is nice though! Having not played the game they seem to be well fleshed out. Not that I care either way, but are you keeping your signature emotes in there loki lol
Thank you c: I wanted people to understand their characters if they haven't played the game and there are some jokes in there that players might get like the blacksmith's flavor text.
As for the emotes, I left the ones on the fisherman because I felt it fit him pretty good. XD Same with the tavern owner as well. If you want me to remove them I can tho :<
Sorry everyone I have mononucleosis and have been in bed for almost 2 weeks. I'm not getting much better. Very bad timing.
D: Get well soon and focus on that. We can focus on other stuff while we wait.
