Ren'Py Desert Stalker [v0.17.1.2 2024-12-30] [Zetan]

[LordWanze]

I've been thinking about Sharifa's punishment. I suppose it would be something hard physical, but she'd probably take it more or less easily because of her loyalty to the queen. The next option is that Merneith will make her watch her (the queen) and Zaton pleasuring each other. punishment with jealousy.

I actually hope the game will find back to their roots in this regard.
The choice about Asani was mentioned.
It seems to me that Sharifa went way overboard with her interest in the queen, to a point where I think she is quite dangerous for the MC.
And I dislike manipulative people.
So maybe we'll get the option (like with Asani) to get rid of her in a permanent way.
The kidnapper girl from the Basar was another one of those situations, and I took it immediately.
But I'm not into raping content, so a lot of it comes from avoiding this topic as much as possible.
The scene in prison where the prison girl was punished (and again a choice to rape her) already showed her disgusting personality in my opinion.
But on the other hand: she fits well into the Zetan society, copying some of the worst ancient behaviours and rules and maintaining some sort of purity caste system.
Lastly it should be interesting to find out more about her background and how she was able to come to such a high position, surely there're factors that shaped her picture of suitable soldier- behaviour.

Kinda stuck...I think. In the Main Quests, under Pride and Prejudice, it says I need to Visit the settlement. I have done that and went through all the things with Asha & Kitty. But, it is still there as a quest. Is there something else I need to do?

I am not sure what the issue is. I can go to the Raiders Camp, Mutants and Home. The TRAVEL icon is not active.

No it only shows an ! beside the raidercamp on the next day, it is like the mutant base, did you have Sekhmet legion already ? and did you talk to the people in the camp again after the take over ?

I am going to assume that I did since the last time I played this, I had completed all quests. Guess I will go back to my last save and give it another try.

then it is over, for a few updates, Sekhments legion is where you learn why this girl has no arm, and why she keeps this living torso.

Thanks...I appreciate the quick and in-depth responses.

I don't know if it's been mentioned before, but there is a bug in the Colosseum scene, when the queen and Zaton are arguing about his patience. If the option of not answering and going home is chosen, the queen says goodbye, but immediately afterwards the option is activated in which the protagonist asks the guard to leave and grabs her by the neck.

I agree, she's an interesting character and the situation she's in is too.
Also her crush on the queen, it would be harsh if we executed her, but interesting.

 

[Ummmh]

Not harsh at all, given her lies flatly manipulated the queen into brutally murdering her prior head guard.

Lying to the queen, directly manipulationg the queen (directly and VERY PUBLICALLY proving the queen's fallability and vulnerability, which would be most embarassing, when found out), and getting the head of the queen's security detail killed, thus endangering the queen by reducing her defense? All pretty damned hefty crimes.

If Merneith does not cut and stab her to pieces, favoritism is involved. Remember: Merneith specifically told Shani that harsh punishments are key to people feeling safe. Every time she doesn't issue some sort of a vicious punishment it would be seen as a sign of weakness and political destabilization: that her divine authority is misplaced and cannot be depended upon.

I agree with you, it would make sense for her to be executed. But I'm speaking from the perspective of a spectator or a player. Her guilt is clear, but her motive is not such that whoever is playing feels she is the enemy. She was selfish in her goal to get close to the queen at any cost, but still loyal to her ( I think so). So if Merneith suggests Zaton to execute Sharifa, it will be emotional for some players.

Nice game i like the desert where it plays

 

[FunFuntomes]

Lirah's bad path (the one on the bed),

wait, which path it is?

 

[xapican]

wait, which path it is?

when you convince her to stay and the queen punish her.

 

[dolfe67]

when you convince her to stay and the queen punish her.

That's not a bad path imo

 

[Ummmh]

wait, which path it is?

Probably Duty/apologizes/stays/humiliation. It starts w/Lirah pushed up against a pillar, but eventually ends up on a bed, after Merneith changes her mind.

They may have added animations and a few more expressions to what had been a fairly static (tho still great) ending.

 

[Ummmh]

Seriously one of the best humiliation scenarios I've seen, and that includes comparing it to Pale Carnations.

as stated in the update report posted by SP the animations will be part of 16c which is almost ready iirc.
The naming dolfe67 is random, people started talking about "good" and "bad" paths and I kept the premise so everyone can understand, it is all subject to your own kinks and point of view.
the submissive path with the queen is kinky as hell and I liked it a lot, since I'm a bit of romantic soul, the path were she submits willing I like more.

Hey I'M playing and I definitely feel that b**** is the enemy!



In addition, she consistently makes it very clear that SHE considers the MC the enemy, which means she might have a mind to do something similar to HIM.

Since we see that she very intentionally got a man brutally murdered to get him out of the way, I definitely think she would be viewed by most who are aware of the situation as a major problem, and one who made the queen look VERY bad by inducing the queen to kill an actually-loyal man.

Any guard in Merneith's service, charged with defending the queen's life, would 100℅ immediately be falcon-focused on this to see what the Queen's response would be to an ambitious and dishonest guard getting a truly loyal and honest guard gutted. Merneith has proven, from her past actions, that she is WELL aware of the optics on cases, and especially would be on one where her entire retinue has a front row seat and personal stake in the matter.

She may let her get off lightly because she's a woman and she might decide she has too much personal involvement, but I don't think that would necessarily go over well, in terms of discipline and morale, so I think she would be gunning to kill her.

There IS (IMO) theoretically another option.. She might decide to reduce her to one of her slaves, but one who every guard gets to use, at will. THAT might go over well enough, and be understood to be a different punishment because she was a woman.

EDIT: having her be a public use slave for the guards actually might go over VERY well, in that it would be appropriate, considering one of the things that she got the prior guard killed for was supposed use of one of the Queen's slaves.
EDIT2daEDIT: and actually since sharifa is probably a serious hardass to the remaining guards they might not like her anyway, so seeing her brought low and turned into their cumdump might actually be EXTREMELY popular. The more I think about this idea the more it seems likely to be the best one, although whether or not it actually is the one they go with it's another matter. Fan theories are just fan theories unless they hit the mark.
