Focusing on open-ended sandbox gameplay features rather than a linear story.""Be a trader, a thief, a rebel, a warlord, an adventurer, a farmer, a slave, or just food for the cannibals. Research new equipment and craft new gear."https://store.steampowered.com/app/233860/Kenshi/https://www.gog.com/game/kenshi>Demo Linkhttps://lofigames.com/>Tips for beginnersLearn to pick your fights, don't hesitate to run away and don't reload unless you die, any fight you survive makes you stronger. Building an outpost will attract trader caravans and hostile raids. Building one too early might be more than you can handle. Pressing F1 will open the tutorial screen. Mousing over the stats screen and HUD will reveal useful tooltips and additional info. If the enemies feel too difficult - get crossbows for your units. And don't be afraid of the RP autism - engage in it whenever you can. And do unlock the sliders.>https://pastebin.com/zw9fCJdC>Some modshttps://mega.nz/folder/x4d1SLwZ#i09S39AoukUkqYLtHaTWTg>AND a link to the giga muscle-girl modhttps://mega.nz/folder/6ZBmADJK#8uL2GFZYoLgdS6kBV0DJfA>Some moonrune mod archive on the LL Kenshi threadhttps://ux.getuploader.com/hentaibutayarou/index/date/desc/1>LL modding threadhttps://www.loverslab.com/topic/87203-kenshi/>post with jonijonikenshi mods (like milking mod) after he deleted it allhttps://www.loverslab.com/topic/87203-kenshi/page/48/#comment-4050418>LL mod indexhttps://www.loverslab.com/topic/172556-kenshi-mod-index/#comment-3450198>Kenshi Fuck Modhttps://www.loverslab.com/files/file/24433-kenshi-fuck-mod/>The package of optimization mods from Nexushttps://mega.nz/folder/XhERDCRI#37kPAWeA_LKfPTO-qiaY1Q

Anyone try the multiplayer mod?
>>4133410Anyone tried this yet?https://github.com/VlcekM/MeitouClient?tab=readme-ov-fileComplete port of Kenshi into C#
>>4133410Your gay sandbox grindfest is not an RPG.
>>4134457what is a role-playing game?
>>4134584You ought to read basic theory before posting on my board, failed man.https://lilura1.blogspot.com/2021/12/cRPG-Definition.html?m=1
My Kaizo + Lost in the Ashlands run suddenly keeps crashing. It's so over. Anyways anyone has suggestions for an Equinox modlist?
keng... getting up?
>>4134457It's one of the very few actual, trve and pvre cRPGs. Alongside Mount and Blade and Crusader Kings
>>4134605
>>4134605>Using lilura blog as an argument in this caseRetarded namefagRPG Codex Dragon Lady considers cRPGs to be inferior to Strategy games, the holy pure gameplay genre. CRPGs are enriched by miscgenating with Strategy games. Which Kenshi does."cRPG genre is weak, very weak. Probably the weakest traditional genre in gaming."
Want to finish my Kenshi playthrough but all these games are coming out that demand my attention. I wanna replay CP2077 too.
Recently started a new run. I decided to be daring and went with... an ex-UC noble scorchfu down on her luck, recently staged a jailbreak at Tengu's Vault and is on the run on the fringes of HN land.Very original never before seen.
>>4138384Nice boots.
Lots of my guys are approaching the 90's in combat stats just from being made to hang out in places where they have to fight a lot. When they reach 90-80 depending on if they're warriors or craftsmen I'm gonna actually just let them rest or work on life skills.
>>4138556>hang out in places where they have to fight a lotwhat's your favorite biome for this?
Does this have rape mods yet?
>>4138892Stormgap Coast, on an area close to GutIt had almost constant Grass Pirate traffic, and they have decent stats but weak weapons and armor, so the were fantastic to train. Got most of my guys to 70-75 before I permanently moved to Stobe's Garden. The Stobe's garden base gets a lot less traffic, so I built an offshoot base close by in an area that gets constant reaver and skeleton bandit patrols and have my soldiers managing that place while they train.
>>4138938There were actually so many limbs in the fields in front of my base I set up a limb collection job and got some extra cows so I could load them up with limbs to eat.
Some people grind their guys to high statsI send my naive low-skill noble to black desert on purpose because she found a map
Is the ai talking npcs mod any good?
>>4139771Doubt it honestly. Didn't look interesting to me.
>>4139771Has a tendency to say lolrandom stuff with minimal relevance to the context at hand.So, about par with shitty millennial writing.
what do we talk about when the place has 2-3 posters
>>4141563We hope for Kenshi 2 news and post screenshots. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/wmLqn-5syS4
well, playing some kenshi sim RP. Some of the gang is survivin' after their mishap in black desert>ex-noble doesn't want to talk about how she survived>Gaspard pulled through and made his way to BDC before leaving and heading home to Sten>Espher didn't make it>one of the samurai soldiers from the custom start survived in the great desert, and has turned to local banditry after escaping slavery with a couple of shek women. They're doing quite well
>>4141625Is your dude missing a head
>>4141642that's a skeleton thrall from a mod that let's you buy them from wandering skeleton traders.
My swamp base turned out kinda nice. I'm sending any new slaves that join me over there to help with odd jobs.
>>4141563this thread is for boatposting
>>4142175Re-Kenshi boat mod when? maybe Meitou Client can have boats
>tfw I've accumulated 1500 hours in kenshi this year>tfw I've accumulated 3000 in TF2 between 2010 and now
Horrible aesthetics.
I found the exploit where if you position yourself at the slave master's desk just right he won't come to collect your captive and you can just click + 1 your way to infinite caps
>>4142816I like the one where if you speed click when using a stealth knockout it'll actually hit as many times as you can click from the moment the first attack lands to the end of the animation. Greatly increasing your chances of a successful hit, and greatly increasing your assassination skill.
>>4142579Not enough water.
>>4138928I'm pretty sure it has many such mods. I remember anons posting them when /keng/ was alive.
>>4142834then we install that mod that raises the watertable
>>4142846>>4138928Sorta, I guess? I can capture people, force them onto a specific bed, and make the ONE animation designed specifically for that individual bed happen.Maybe loverslab has some new re-Kenshi rape mod.
>Had an extra building in the back of my base so I made it a throne room/bedroom for my faction leader>It's the building furthest into my base>When characters rescue wounded units, they ALWAYS head for whichever bed is furthest into the base>My king sized bed is constantly being used for wounded plebsGod damn commies, why can't I designate this bed for exclusive use?
Manifesting a Kenshi 2 update.
So what are some fun role-playing you do in Kenshi. I want to actually immerse myself into the game and world instead of just min-maxxing
>>4143721I'm not super involved in complicated roleplaying, but I like having characters match my impressions of them and work their equipment and skills into that, instead of just picking whatever's strongest. Sometimes this leads into me giving the characters personality quirks naturally. One of my scorchlanders is infatuated with one of my skeletons because he saved her from slavery so she wears gear similar to skeleton bandits and follows him around and tries to emulate him (she isn't strong enough to wield heavy weapons but she is a former reaver so she uses hackers).
>>4143721I do a kind of theater of the mind type roleplay. I give my characters motivations and ask myself where they go from here. My favorite roleplay by far is scorchfu noble, either doing noble things or outcast.I've made a lot of these, some times I go off and found a new city for my noble to lord over, but most of the times, the noble is destitute, on the run.I pretend to do things the character has knowledge for. She do any labouring, and she does, she has to stop after about an hour so I can pretend she is complaining.I limit first-aid ability unless I decide a character is moderately skilled. They can bandage a little at a time if they're low skilled.I make looting take some time, pick up a weapon quick, but rifling through the body takes a bit. No full-equipping an enemy's armor mid-combat.Stuff like that. It would be cool if there were mods for that.
what the fuck https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3829117994
>>4144866Damn, that looks crazy.
It's pretty cool, but I immediately found the limitation. I deformed this area, and now can't do anything to land in Stenn because it's too far from where I started.
Did you get kicked out of >>>/vg/? This place is not for generals. Let me guess, that place is nothing gacha trash now...
>>4145326yes
>>4145326Seeing the last OP devolve into "Kenshi thread" and forget the /keng/ lore was quite on-theme for this game.
