Bath houses are OP, please nerf

Bath houses allow you to heal, clean, and replenish all your needs to 100. They give a buff to your stats. This takes only an hour in game, maybe two, or four tops. They’re free, AND they save the game. I don’t think they were supposed to be free. Still, they should be a bit expensive, especially early game.

As it is right now, they’re a bit game-breaking. With a bath house, there’s no need to ever get a room. I haven’t had to buy food for hours. Was it meant to be these way?

Either way, please look into tweaking.

I think you are right. Bath houses should be a lot more expencive. Also, if there would ever be a system of washing clothes by player, we would probably recieve some decent buff to being well-washed.

They should add rare random disruptions to the bath house where some customer goes bonkers and Henry has to naked box him. We have the fan service for the men already, now we need some for the ladies lol.

Well, that’s an exellent idea actually. Just hope it wouldn’t happen too often and actally feel special and somewhat rewarding (the ladies will be impessed, and you’ll get some coin maybe)

I’m always down for a fist fight!

They aren’t free.
The only time they can be free is if you get the perk for it.
For those who don’t get the perk?
It can cost up to 70 gold per visit depending on their speech or charisma and they don’t get the stat buffs to the effect of the skill perk you have to manually choose.

70 gold is practially nothing mid to late game, yet just to wash your clothes (no matter how many you have) you pay like 10 gold

Maybe that’s why they’re free for me? I discovered them after playing the game for a while, so it’s possible. Which perk are you talking about?

Yes I know.
But still. That is the point of that skill perk. If you take it over something else that may make you better in a certain area then you give up that option.
I wish I knew the skill perks name… Lady Killer or Casanova? OH my bad it is called Troubadour.

Game deleted all of my saves last night :-/ had over 50 hours installed and was at the end of the game. Lucky I even remembered the skill name. Latest patch killed the ps4 version.

That may be it. Still, services like that shouldn’t be free. Troubadour perk should only give a discount.

Thanks for clearing that up though!

I’m sorry for your progress. Lost myself about 10 hours just today because of “Questions and answers” bug. Still shaking a bit.
Well, devs will prob rebalance a lot of perks. I really hope they will play a lot more with risk vs reward balancing.

I light of our discussion, I’d like to reiterate that, on top of laundering and bumpin’ uglies, bath houses also restores nourishment and sleep. No perk should make that free. It sucks the challenge out of survival.

Then we first of all need more disadvantage from dirty and destroyed clothes. I´m running arround everyone talking to me “aw, what happend, did someone attack you”, but nothing more. I don´t need armor or charisma so far. ´

I also dont´s like the “buy skill” thing. It´s to common like in other games. Why can´t you realize it via the trainers itself? Fithting against them or at least show a small scene of something you REALLY learn, instead of "give me money (which they don´t have afterwards), and i´ll skill you to imba-ness (like in every other game).

I love this game because I TERRIBLY SUCK! in so many things.

It´s a pitty that “skill” , (also it´s better transmitted to the actual player than in every other game I played), will be treated as usual as it goes higher. the game “rewards” my actual and reallife progress in managing to fight (hard enough), rewards this with “you can be lazy again. You don´t need the ultimate timemings. We give them to you as a present. Take it, here you are.” (You know what I mean?)

(I could Imagine that my “better” achery, now that I really (think) I know what to do (lvl 9 or so), is nothing but a bigger hitbox. sigh good old days where i shot quiver by quiver to get at least half a dozen rabbis / kill 1 Kumane horseback riding (because I can´t fight xD)

Funfact: I didn´t even know about bathhouses and started to wonder: “well, pretty damn good game! I can´t even fight to hard, for I can´t waste so much time healing while asleep.”
