Mutators. Unlock !?

[Tchey]

Hello,

How do we unlock Mutators ? Why are they locked in the first place ?

Anyway to unlock them immediatly ? I’d hate to have to play in "some ways" in order to play in the way i’d prefer to (such as "Who Are You" to restrict factions...).

Thanks

For starters I didn't get what you should do to unlock those in the first place.

I didn’t find anyone explaining how to unlock Mutators, in any "Let’s Play", review etc, so far, but i probably missed it. Right ?

Honestly maybe if the devs did add descriptions on how to unlock mutators then that would've made it much easier.

On Discord, it seems to be said "you have to play to unlock them", but not much more... I hate this idea, Mutators should be simply another tab with Options, to customize my game. Who did plant this idea !? Argh....

I feel someone thought that it would be fun for players to go and find it out themselves.
PS: Sometimes it's bloody irritating. Again, they could've at least showed the requirements for unlocking those.

you sure you dont "unlock" them by using the advanced options? just like "allow" mutators or something

I didn’t see anything alike, but i’m 100% okay if i’m just blind or stupid, much better than unlocking these options. Aaaaah, i hate that. Grmblblhlblblbhh....

There are achievements for the unlocks so I doubt it's just a case of using them in the options.

I got a choice of two things to say after I won my first game. one unlocked a mutator, and when I tried reloading and picking the other choice it worked and i got a second mutator. So it's related to ending the game. No clue what conditions make me have what choice.

I played the Introduction, was the fallen soldier, and killed Artificer, Zephon and Chieftess. I won allying with Anchorite and researched more Voice than the other two options. That let me pick between "What Are You?" and "Where Are We?". By reloading I picked up both.

So, i played the intro scenario, i won twice thanks to reloading a previous save... and unlocked 2 mutators.

I confirm my first thought : i hate this system to unlock them, and they should be simply more options at game creations, untied to anything, and certainly not "achievements" (i don’t care so much about that Steam feature...).
