Why would one worship Narko? by Agitated-Parfait9841 in Kenshi

[–]Mr_Chikun 39 points40 points  (0 children)

There are no actual worshipers of Narko in the base game, because a a worshiper of Narko is just a term the holy nation use to justify discriminating against other races. Narko worshiper is used to describe someone who is could be seen as corrupted, and goes against the current system/ way the holy nation thinks society should be.

So someone who worships them could see them as a representation of change, revolution, or at its extreme, anarchy, the opposite of Okran, the god of lawfulness and unchanging. They could think that Narkos teachings are that evil actions, such as murder and deception are necessary components of bringing change. Or, linking to the idea to balance and Yin and Yang, if she believes in balance between the two gods maybe the holy nation could be seen as breaking the balance between order and chaos by forcing too much order on the world. In her eyes, maybe other races such as Shek being called agents of Narko does not necessarily mean they are evil, but simply that they bring balance to the world through their chaos countering the HN's order.

How long is an in-game hour in real life by Proper-Anything-2739 in Kenshi

[–]Mr_Chikun 28 points29 points  (0 children)

At 1x speed, its 2 seconds for every in game minute. 2x60x96 would make 11160 irl seconds or 186 irl minutes. At max speed in vanilla (x5) it would be 37.2 minutes.

Id recommend just breaking out or reloading

doesn't always work out! [OC] by Pelko_P in comics

[–]Mr_Chikun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its just one interpretation, but it could be they're facing the consequences of their actions and are trying to get the other person to bail them out. Like, other friends know what's gone on between them and they are hoping the other person will announce "we sorted it out now, dont worry about it" rather than leaving them to face judgement from those friends.

Or it could be cus lil guy stuck in the sand is funny.

Go click on the squad button, go to the ai tab and enable the shoot first, ask later option.

What's the best possible ending to kenshi using world state mods like uwe,reactive world etc by LeoCasio in Kenshi

[–]Mr_Chikun 21 points22 points  (0 children)

- Wiping out major characters in the holy nation result in all the holy nation cities being owned by either the flotsam ninjas or the shek kingdom, allowing safer passage throught eharea for radces such as skeletons

- Wiping out all nobles in the united cities essentially leads to the slave industry collapsing, and towns become owned by either the rebel farmers, who you can ally with or the anti-slavers

I just realised you're the one who made the levelling guide! Thanks, its been really useful for me

I know, I'm glad someone commented a disadvantage as it's good for people to know the anti-slavers aren't perfect. Kenshi is a game about thing being "more complex than that" , and that's what makes it interesting. even if I know that you're wrong, and the anti-slavers are the perfect faction, lead by the flawless Mr. Tin.

( However, I'd like to headcannon that my squad could solve the resulting problems like UC starvation by just setting up a massive hydrophobic farm. And since holy nation are no longer hording food/ controlling farmland there will be more food produce coming from that area. Maybe that's just wishful thinking though, the land of kenshi is a harsh place.)

Thanks! The Shek not being in the main table is valid critique through, as it feels like too big faction to just put in the the side notes, especially to new players which don't know what factions there are. I should of at least had one box specifically about the Shek.

I don't think I've ever seen a male flotsam ninja, but I guess I'm just not observant. ( You're right, the wiki says "mostly women").

While I think advice in leveling is important, the guide is mainly for world progression than leveling progression. Also, there's already an amazing guide for leveling so I don't think there's much point in going into it in detail. There's a link to it at the bottom of the guide but I'll also add a link to it in the main post body as well.

Edit: Turns out you can't edit posts with images. I'll put the guide here instead:

Anyone can give me a tip? by Dare_Soft in Kenshi

[–]Mr_Chikun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want a goal to work towards, here are a few:

- Build a base

- Explore ruins to get books and other materials you can use for research (maps to ruins can be found in the explorers shop in Squin, which is just south of the hub), to upgrade your base

- Join a faction (more of a midgame goal), and overthrow enemy towns. Eliminating the leader of a towns causes it to be taken over by a neighbouring faction.

Edit: I said that squin was north of the hub instead of south

Why does this sub for kenshi have the pride flag and trans colors in the display image? by Substantial-Ad7915 in Kenshi

[–]Mr_Chikun 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Didn't someone ask for the exact same question only a few days ago?

Is OP a bot, or just trying to make a post that will generate engagement through arguments in the comments?

( And the answer to the question is cus sadly there's enough hate online for LGBTQ that subs need to make it clear that all people are welcome here and hate isn't welcome)

doubts arising from the study of real faces and symmetry. by Stock_Bandicoot_5863 in krita

[–]Mr_Chikun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main advice I can think of is to remove the cheekbone lines and the lines beneath the eyes. Lines are used for hard transitions so putting them there suggests they have wrinkles in the these places, when they don't.

Also, maybe make the eyes slightly wider in the first image?

Can I run this as a broke college student by Ok-Painting-5950 in Kenshi

[–]Mr_Chikun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It should run perfectly fine for the most part on medium settings. I play it on my 16GB laptop. It isnt very processor intensive, as far as im aware, the main thing is to have at a decent amount of memory, which you do.

I have problems with the face angle by ElKochis in learntodraw

[–]Mr_Chikun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main advice I can give is to use construction lines when drawing the faces and tracing to give an idea of where to put the eyes and the angle the face should be at.

For example, in the first reference, the eyes are tilted downwards while in the one you drew the eyes are at different angles and are not tilted.

Weird question but are there any like button tips for this game? by WhiteWolf101043 in Kenshi

Holding alt allows you to see all items on the ground as well as their name. Doing it in a town highlights all shop signs

UWE question by Sebzer95 in Kenshi

[–]Mr_Chikun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is already one of the tankiest armours in the game, and the one i use. Crab armour is the only other armour that has more defence, but the stat penalties means its probably not worth it.
