I'm not talking about ethics here, just about instincts. Kitty is an incredibly sweet thing. The General didn't do anything specially horrible to the MC. He didn't kill his family, didn't rape his daughters. What do you want to make him suffer for by inflicting suffering to Kitty?

That's the entire question.

But the devs gave the option. I did take the option to see the scene (before going back and chosing the other option) and I did find it hot.

But as Ragnar also said, Zaton's job is just to take the settlement. The General opposes that and therefore he must go. But while he does not appear to be an entirely pleasant person, to put it mildly, just stabbing him in the neck would also have solved the issue.

On a Macchiavellian level, does raping Kitty and brutally murdering the General give Zaton any future advantage? I don't really think so.

You have to quote the whole sentence: "It may be unfair but "guilt by association" is a very common thing".

It's a human condition. Sometimes you (as an individual) agree on this "guilt by association", sometimes not. I guess it depends on the circumstances and your own opinion on these circumstances.

But perhaps I should have expressed myself better...

Don't worry mate, I get it. Don't let the gentle souls convince you otherwise. This is the desert of Zeta, this isn't some typical AVN school setting or landlady's summer home. You want to survive here? You want to be at the top of the pyramid? Then you've got to be a ruthless bastard. That means killing, maiming, fucking. Not necessarily in that order.

The kings and sultans of old knew this. You don't get to the top and maintain your position without being cold-hearted. And remember, the first to go are always those closest to power (siblings, generals, etc). Rulers typically cleaned house to solidify power once they acquired the crown.

As far as Kitty is concerned, you plough right ahead sir. If for no other reason then to unlock that scene with Asha. She is a dirty girl and a true treasure of this game.

I played the thermae scene again via the gallery and noticed that if the Queen is dominant, she gets a lot more handsy with Shani, which I think is hot but also makes sense politically (I'm hoping to get Shani in a position of queen-consort).

In my playthrough however, I made the Queen submissive towards Zaton.

But I would like more future content between Shani and the Queen, and if possible, have the Queen marry Shani.

What do you think? Should I go back and let the Queen be dominant?

interessting! didn't even know the dev had that possible angle in mind.
would be cool to see that developed.

well... time to start a new save... for the 1000000th time

apart from the stunning visuals and atmosphere one has to give credit to the insane world building in this game!
all actions of the characters and all your choices make sense in that world.

no need for lengthy bla-bla and mental gymnastics.

It is what it is, and it is fine... aslong as you don't stand in Zaton's way that is

13a has been out for a few days. No upload?

 

[Dr.Olympus]

I'm stuck and need some assistance...
I'm to the point where Shani has returned from the zone and stuck on the part where it says to "Spend time with Shani"

All other quests are progressed up to this point. And every time i visit Shani in her room all i ever get is the option to workout then giver her a massage. Ive gone through the same thing about 50 times now and nothing new happens.

Did i miss something?

Im having the same issue. is this the end of the update lads or are we missing something?

Oh yes, it does. That's the entire point of Cartel's violence for example. They record the shit they do to their enemies to instil fear in everyone.
The game world is merciless and violence is common in every settlement we have seen. You have the option to not rape the girl, I didn't, but the General had to die one way or another because he opposed Zeta and Zaton. I think the way the raiders did it was good, because nobody in that place will try anything against them after that.

 

[Son of Durin]

And just not into Rabiah. Omar can keep her

No one deserves Omar.

Bring her back into the fold, but not without a little bit of penance.

During "family time" she gets strapped naked to a frame where she's at an angle - she can see what's going on, but can't participate, and her legs are spread apart, revealing her fully, and allowing everyone to see the impact things are having on her.

Every once in a while, someone teases her clit with a feather, but just a couple of strokes. She'll be there dripping and edging for hours, until the family finally comes to her and all take their turn giving her orgasm after orgasm while she's still strapped in, with MC finishing her off with a huge creampie.

As she's there, exhausted and dripping, the family removes her straps and gently carries her to bed, ministering to her lovingly, with Nadia and Ain gently cleaning her with cool water.

Chastised, but also energized, she becomes a full and giving participant in all future family activity, readily offering all her holes for deposits by MC, and always assuring that he has his pleasure.

I was finally able to get it going.
I downloaded v13 again and without any mods i loaded up my last save and finally the dream sequence for Shani was triggered.
Once i was able to visit the queen again i reloaded the mod and continued on.

 

[Yngling]

interessting! didn't even know the dev had that possible angle in mind.

Well, it's just my conjecture. But it would make sense and I would like to see that path developed.

I think it's just an excuse to exercise someone's power over an innocent soul. I'm not trying to be moral here. It's a game after all as been said. I understand that out of curiosity we try such things. But to fantasize about it and have (save) it as a part of you main playthrough you must be a real sick fuck.

 

[indio68]

still no final release?? uff....can't wait so much..damn

 

[Aegon76]

Are there any new NTR/sharing scenes?

 

[DogBeersHadOne]

Not unless you're counting the threesome with Shani and Merneith as "sharing", no

 

[fried]

Philosophy has its limits in a game thread, such as when we're no longer talking about the game for more than a page or so.

Just sayin' ...​

 

[Mfka5]

I was literally saying this before about Shani getting gangbanged by decayed.
Ppl thinking im some sort of psychopath lol
Meanwhile this game is psychotic in itself, what are you on about.
Its just a fantasy game, dont worry, go out a bit.
I think they were just butthurt seeing that outcome than me being "psychopath" lol
If anything, i should be more moral and ethical for not actually doing anything this game has shown so far

 

[ana sucubbus]

you need to move between rooms, turning off radio/readying stuff etc.

I cant do that because there is no options to do that, like I said, its stuck on a bug and there is nothing to do.

 

[slightchance]

A shame the dev put so much effort into rendering violence instead of giving Shani the option to edge her way out if it. Would have preferred a montage of her appealing to her inner succubus and wrapping her victims in a web of promises of sexual release. In the end she only did the thing she was supposed to do and came out basically unscathed. Not a real character arc if you'd ask me.

I agree, i hope she will at least get shared with Igor

 

[GodOfMercy]

A Realy nice game
enjoyed the world, grafics and people i meet.
there was some to love and some to hate all ways nice
personaly i would have loved to raid the decayeded train station and save those poor girls xD
would have loved the ability to explore the areas more
some random encouters with the people we meet in the areas around the world, that could improve or decrease there view of the player depending on actions

but all in all a nice experience
