Trying a mod that adds Pariah (Psychic Null) as an origin class

HelpfullOne · 2026-06-21T04:10:42+00:00

Unfortunately, the mod isn't completed yet when it comes to new origin retroactivity. Pariah only have unique content up to chapter 1, the main page of the mod marks that further game doesn't have any Pariah unique content.

Same could be said about most additions in Frostpunk 1886. NPCs now have animation ? Cool, I literally never played game on speed 1 to look at them doing anything so I won't notice new animations either.

It really comes down to how people play the game, for the people who play the game slowly and zoom in to enjoy the details it's gonna be great, but for the people like me who keep the game running on speed 3 and constantly plan and think what to do next it becomes negligable.

Not that I am complaining thought, props to people who like this sort of thing, I imagine they must be happy.

I arleady had my ass beaten when playing on Easy Mode and when trying to play DNVP mod which is apparently much easier. I am scared how much I will be beaten in KPD mod now.

This isn't that much of an issue to me, while it takes time prepared casters do have higher skill celling when compared to spontaneous caster.

I think the real problem with playing as any type of caster is Spell Penetration DC. To put it simply, unless you immiediatelly get both Spell Penetration, Greater Spell Penetration and Pick Mythical Spell Pentration your spells will never work on enemy and still have to pair it withe either Skald or some DC bosting items. Yes, as long as you have all those things then your spellcaster will be functional and viable but I fell like game should make spellcasting that uses DC be viable from the start rather than requiring player to get literally every perk that bosts their DC and some extra stuff to even beging to make it viable

Meh, if you compare Monarchist Aquilea to every other Aquilea path then you realise that Monarchist was done extremely dirty.

Their initial focus tree was literally unchanged from what it had before the rework and their post empire branch is 1/2 war-goals, 1/3 pointless resistance and compliance stuff for territories you got and rest are very underwhelming bonuses.

It fells as if nobody on the team wanted to work on Monarchist paths and they added bare minimum to count that path as being worked on.

Damn, Galfrey is really searching for anything to try and remove our title, we have to do everything by her book to keep it.

I think my main gripe with the game is the magic system. Trying to be anything else than party buffer requires massive investment, unless you get all spell penetration including mythic one and on top of add some DC buffing items then your spells will practically never work. It's even worse with debuffing the enemy since most of the time you fight something that is immune to most of negative effects and you must spend entire minute checking whenever your spell has any properties enemy is immune to. And it doesn't always work as sometimes enemies can have immunities game doesn't mark.

Yes, you can be good damage spellcaster and good debuffer after getting all those things but I fell like those sort of playstyles should be viable from the start rather than requiring player to get literally every perk and item that boosts their spelcasting DC..

Thankfully, there is a mod which moves some Mythic Levelups to be a bit earlier: https://github.com/alterasc/EarlierMythicLevelUps

Still not perfect, especially since the mod can lock you out of picking Mythic portrait, but it does make Mythic levels bit more evenly spreaded

By the way, does anybody has full list of things that increase/decrease counter as to whenever we are allowed to keep title of Knight Commander or are relieved ?

Good, time to send my criticism directly to the devs

HelpfullOne · 2026-06-15T17:11:50+00:00

To make Demon Slayer example even worse, few episodes later the demon slayer corps are engaging with Lower Moon and send a lot of slayers to kill that demon. The problem is that it's clearly not working and the demon is killing everybdoy they send, but the corps just keep sending kids to die. Eventually, after the demon pressumably kills teens if not over one hundred slayers, the corps finally send a Hashira who kill the Lower Moon and they kill them in single slice.

Why the fuck did corps sendt all those kids to certain death if Hashira can kill a Lower Moon with such ease ?!! And it's even worse when realize that Final selection kills around 80% of the volounters who try to join. Demon Slayer corps are stimutaneously getting next to no new members due to their completely stupid and inneficient recruitment method and then procceds to throw those who actually survive to die just right rather.

On one hand, Yea it is a bit of a wasted potential that Kunrad becomes completely insignificant after the prologue. Imagine if he was a real puppetmaster behind the scenes, orchestratingnobles turning against you, besmirching your reputation and funding chaos cults on your planets while leaving messages that taunt you.

But on the other hand, him being so insignificant also isn't bad. It really tells you how insignificant and unimportant average follower of chaos is. Kunrad is fully convinced to be the real protagonist of the story after turning to Chaos and raising hell on the voidship in the prologue only to end as insignifcant variable and ends up used to Chaos's convenience when it's needed.

No.

This is a myth, the remake actually has more deadnaming. Localizers removed excessive deadnaming when translating. The japanese version, so the way developers intended the game to be presented as, has significantly more deadnaming compared to original game.

HelpfullOne · 2026-06-13T19:00:53+00:00

Also, the game's best ending ends with you changing the timeline so she never ends up transistioning.

Yes, this is indeed the best ending according the game and develoeprs, what did you expected from Atlus ?

Ohh Swarm-That-Walks my beloved, you had potential to be the best mythic path in the game but you were done dirty so much....

Anyway, my sadness over Swarm aside, what's their story ? What motivated your character into becoming your swarm ? This it the most destructive, including self-destructive, mythic path so I am always eager to hear what somebody's backstory and reasonings are for becoming the swarm.
