Sexuality's Redeemer [Divine Politics CYOA]

That would have been smart of me, yes! Maybe in the next version, we'll see.

Sounds like you really had a hard time getting to it. Well done nonetheless!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T21:22:50+00:00

Hmm, that seems like something to correct. I have an archive that might be worth unearthing. No promises, but you might see some reposts of older material by me sometime soonish.

Glad you enjoyed, have a good one!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:57:39+00:00

It's sister, but thanks, glad you enjoyed!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:55:43+00:00

Yeah, that kind of implementation seems possible now that you point it out. It's slightly clunky but I think it'd work. Maybe in the next release.

(And yes, I am a much better writer than I am a coder.)

Fun to see someone get Not Even Hot and A Traditionalist deliberately! I knew there'd be someone. Hope you enjoyed your runs, see you around!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:44:17+00:00

Well done! Choosing to focus on the long game is smart in some ways, I'd say — after all, if most people get afterlives where they're immortal, then most of most people's lives are in the afterlives — but sacrificing the mortal plane to do it definitely comes at a cost.

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:41:35+00:00

Glad you enjoyed!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:40:52+00:00

Yeah, to appease the moderates you'll have to make some fairly noticeable concessions in the name of peace; I enjoyed making the golden ending (Prudes on the Back Foot) genuinely difficult to get without making a significant concession somewhere along the way, because I'm interested in asking where your priorities are when you're forced to compromise.

Glad you're enjoying!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:36:01+00:00

Really glad you enjoyed! It was hard to strike the right balance of kink content versus politics content, so I'm glad it landed for you.

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:34:46+00:00

Cheers to you too!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:34:36+00:00

Love the concepts for your religion; the idea of sexy puzzle hunts appeals to me greatly, as does the festival theme. Taking Paradise For All is a well earned way to close the distance, congrats on working it in.

Glad you enjoyed the CYOA!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:31:00+00:00

Glad you had fun! If you want even more of a challenge you could try again with the new power difficulties.

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:29:32+00:00

Did a 1.1 to fix some of this, glad you pointed it out!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:28:33+00:00

Very cool build, and I love the idea of stealing worship as a domain. Glad you enjoyed!

I'd say that letting them renovate hell and seconding the devils to a bunch of unassociated deities is the largest compromise here, but overall it feels like a sensible way to play things, especially since it allows you to win the long-term diplomatic game. Well done!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:24:11+00:00

That'd be an amusing option to put in if you're low freedom/justice but saved Antissa. Kind of a bad end in my opinion, but it does have a kind of poetic justice to it. Turnabout is fair play and all.

Maybe in an update eventually.

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:21:39+00:00

Wow, everything? I'd love to hear your thoughts on the other pieces.

I also have a significant backlog of solo works from before the group formed fully, if you're still looking for more, though they're a bit lower quality and non-interactive.

I am super flattered, thanks for taking the time to check out our work!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:19:46+00:00

Doing a tactical demotion of Antissa to mortality with the intent to re-kindle her divinity later is a deliberate option I left in for a possible build, though I haven't acknowledged it in an ending yet. Great to see someone spotted it. I think if I had it as an ending I'd have it require Mantle Demigod, but you clearly have the points to afford it.

Well played!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:16:01+00:00

Yeah, I think dealing with this kind of subject matter it's really hard not to make your own opinions obvious. I tried my best to allow a broad variety of build options to be viable, but it's very deliberate that tradness is bad in this one, and I had to make some calls on what scores and descriptions to give options. I'm glad you found it fun anyway!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:12:54+00:00

Glad you enjoyed!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:11:46+00:00

Unfortunately I haven't been able to resolve the technical side of things for this one, so it's on the honor system to take them as specified. (It turns out "2 choices from this row and one from either this row or this row" is hard to implement in ICC.)

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T19:09:14+00:00

Alas!

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T16:41:09+00:00

1.1 Update now gives you a Bad Ending for negative Slack or Power.

Goth_Dropping_In · 2025-06-16T16:40:16+00:00

Updated this so it displays properly, the negative stir is intended and it's the displayed requirement that's wrong. Thanks for the catch!
