I just found this game. It's actually so good. I feel like it's sorely missing a day/night cycle though. There's even mention of night curfews and such. It'd probably be a huge pain to implement now that they're so far in, but I hope it's on the agenda.

I just saw this on steam. I'm so confused if it's only v0.22.3 here then how are they planning on releasing th full game in 3 days on steam. Or are they totally different versions? I remember playing this a long time ago so was excited to see it on steam but after coming here I'm not sure which version I'm going to get if I buy it on steam since they're calling is claire's quest gold and they say: Claire's Quest: GOLD features exclusive content that is unique to this version of the game! Anyone who's more in the know, could shed some light on this for me please. 
This actually broaches a complicated topic, since purposefully viewing ACTUAL child pornography is tantamount to watching a snuff film (ie, a purposeful viewer is essentially complicit in the act, since the whole point of committing the illegal act was in order to film it). But reading Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita doesn't make you a child molester by proxy... if you want a better example, google the court case about the guy who had a literal child fetish who's therapy involved keeping a fictional diary of what he would have done given the chance, and then was prosecuted based on fictional prose.
I will stick with the regular version i hope this Steam censored version dosnt draw too much resources. Bestiality is a very big part of the game so cuting it will reduce the game content by a lot. I dont see how a single quest lane will compensate that. Im afraid that they will divert more and more of their time for "compensation" material.

Sucks that the new questline will be steam exclusive but i think i value hardcore content more.
Strange that they couldn't do it like Kagura does it.
Exclusive or not nobody likes cut content.

Neither do i.
It's likely a publisher move to bait them into working on the flawed steam version.
Well, lets hope that tier v pledge will be worth it.
On the other hand the game has plenty of bestiatity as it is. I dont think Steam has problem with monster sex and futa. The only thing i want to see is a development with the mother of Clair (incest) and the baker's boy. and his mom. Both wont be on the Steam version. Tough i think the baker boy looks mature enough.

I think what you are referring to is the main issue, they went back in and redrew Leon (The baker's boy), so I think that is the main issue. Also maybe the Urchins which are portrayed kind of like oliver twist style young thieves. The bigger issue I think is that it just got to large and went to many directions. I think when the next game or sequel comes out it would be better in a smaller area. You can really tell the early gameplay, where basically you can use any attribute, versus the later gameplay, where you might have 5 new animations, but all rely on one or two stats. I liked the concept of Claire being mischievous, or seductive, or just depraved, and each being a little different, but when you play, there are not as many scenarios with multiple choices. Personally, I would prefer one scenario with 4 choices, than 4 new scenarios that are just click through and see if my defiance is high enough.
The just remade the bakers boy in game sprite , not the scene itself. And i do agree they went very wide. And im afraid they are getting even more streched with the two paralel versions of the game and working on Overgrown at the same time. Usualy updates were constant - every two months now its month 3 and no upg. Btw i really liked the focused styple of Overgrown my only problem with that game is there are way too many rape scenes no not enough consensual sex ,or even better a depaved sex initiation from the mc like we got here in this game.
So all the preg scenes I have seen were game overs, but there is a status and an abortion potion, so how do you get an ACTUAL pregnancy? Or is that not an option yet?
The pregnancy shoud be the game over if its the MC - or you want here running around fucking with monsters and lowlifes 9 mouths in. Especialy if your playing with dominant Claire whats the point ?! I imagine there will be a development with the temple quest and the girl you got pregnant as a futa. Pregnancy is just an other fetish in the game its not the main focus. And if you want to have your own kids what part of the story will they play !?
Yes, I think it's fine for her to run around encumbered by pregnancy. Maybe if they ever flesh out the debuff system, they can have pregnancy do game things (ie. lower move speed, buffs and debuffs to stats, etc). Perhaps it could even unlock certain paths, like another woman who looks concerned about a young mother.
Specifically in regards to dominant Claire, she makes her defiance checks. She's likely not getting pregnant unless she wants to. I don't see a problem here.
The kids question is difficult. Maybe going to term with a child and then finding a safe place to raise it should be a game over. Personally, I think they need a meta-game that gives currency value. Maybe progeny can tie into this.

Sorry mate but that's one of the dumbest things i have ever heard.
Especially if you consider the kind of dystopian world Claire's Quest is.
I don't see any reason to be rude. I didn't call your ideas dumb. But fine, let's unpack it a bit. Even in dystopian worlds, people will still have children. Whether or not it's dumb to have children when you can barely support yourself is a deeply personal choice. If anything, we find that when people are struggling in real life, they have more children. Is it dumb? Idk maybe.Sorry mate but that's one of the dumbest things i have ever heard.

Ugh. Bruh if you want to satisfy your preggophilia that bad, maybe try games that actually have that kink?
It's less about kink than it is about immersion. Whether I have a thing for pregnant chicks is actually irrelevant. It's a discussion about game mechanics.
So how do you imagine reworking so many scenes where the art needs to be redrawn for preggo Claire just so you can have your "immersive" mechanic. I dont have anything aganst any kink but pregnancy the way you discribe its not fusable.
So they can have their immersive mechanic. The game has pregnancy related items in the game, which is the source of this entire conversation. Having items in the game like that is like foreshadowing in a book. I'm not arguing that it needs to be implemented for immersion, but not only would it not break my immersion, depending on implementation it could improve it. If it's just for the futa quest line that I'll never do, that's also fine.
As far as feasibility goes, that isn't really something I have inside information on. I don't have any idea what their pipeline is like.

It's placeholders for future content. Yeah, I dunno how they intend to handle Claire being preggers in a non-bad end, but it's planned to be implemented eventually. I see three ways it could be done:
1. It never progresses past the initial stages to where her belly gets big. This is actually a fairly realistic option as you have to wait months before a baby bump appears, but the big belly is what the pregnancy fetishists want. What's the point of having a status "pregnant" that doesn't affect anything?
2. Her belly *does* get big, and they redraw every single scene in the game so there's a preggo/not-preggo variant. This is the optimal outcome for the player but would cost so much time and money in extra resources I can't see how this could possibly be worth it to implement.
3. Her belly gets big, and having a big belly locks you out of doing most content in the game (with only some special preggo scenes available to do) until you resolve the pregnancy one way or another, either through giving birth or an abortion potion. This is probably the most sensible option.
