It's a fetish he chose to include in the game and there will likely be more of it in the future. Either way, Zaton is usually involved in the sexy times, so he's not really losing screen time. Also, there's always been a non-sharing alternative as far as I can remember.

Sometimes it's better to be afraid of our desires and fetishes, bro! Some desires can surpass the main plots,if only the development doesn't get tiresome later because of the fans' desires :WeSmart::HideThePain:

Difficult to say, but on the discord there are several ideas posted with a high (positive) amount of reactions.

Regardless if it's a subscriber or non-subscriber, I've not known Zetan to be very influenced by either group when it comes to what goes into the game. Also, the game is not built around specific fetishes, rather, fetishes are worked into scenes if he feels it would fit the scenario and the story. Sharing is a very small percentage of the sexual content in the game and I don't really see that changing.

I don't feel it devalues her at all. If she's to be a Stalker she can make her own choices. Why wouldn't she be like her father and make her own sexual conquests like he does?

I would not want to see her be treated the same way as Ain or Emilia. But if she's curious or interested in joining the fun, there's no harm. It's all optional anyway.

I see the sharing requirement growing:

Currently we have Ain, Kateryna and Emilia (possible I missed someone since I am holding off on playing until the next release with a new restart):

Initially, Igor gets limited access to a few women and a few sexual activities, but to keep things interesting, variety is needed, right?

So, add in more activities and add in more women... which = dev time Not spent on the main story, Zaton's adventures, more of Zaton and Shani seducing the queen, etc.

You say that Zaton still gets to play but my point is finite development time, with more time spent on sharing content - more women and more activities for Igor, and less time left over for the rest of the story aspects I mentioned above.

This is from the last dev log:

Repeatable events:
...
- Igor repeatable visit: 10%
- Raider throne room repeatables: 5%
- Mutants repeatable sex events: 0%

We'll see how many different events Igor gets with Zaton's women versus how many different events Zaton gets with the Raider and mutant women, given the dangers he's taken on to make those visits happen.

As to Shani - I think the heir is, putting it bluntly, not just another set of holes for sharing under the guise of 'she can make her own choices.'

I think the heir Is special and that instead of taking time to develop scenes of Shani being shared with other men, that time should be spent on the Zaton/Shani Queen story arcs.

Limited development time strikes again...

So - re: Shani, we must agree to disagree.

Cheers!! :coffee:

Yes - there is a very vocal sharing group here but, from what I have seen from $ supporters, that group is either much smaller or much less vocal... :unsure:

There is a big difference between what people are vocal about wanting for free on F95 and what they actually contribute $ to support a dev, his story and its associated fetishes.

Every sharing scene that the dev builds for Igor/Omar/XYZor/ABCar means less screen time for Zaton and his women and less story time.

I'm here for the story as well as Zaton and his heir and now fellow risk taker - Shani - taking the spoils of conquest and victory.

I have little interest in Zaton taking all the risks so that other men can share all of the women in his family + those he has won/been gifted.

IMO, any sharing Zaton would ask Shani to do with other men would devalue her as both his heir and as a Desert Stalker.

There is a Big difference between Shani being told to have sex with XYZor/ABCar versus Shani Choosing to help Zaton seduce the Queen.

The story is called Desert Stalker, not Desert Pimp.

Cheers!! :coffee:

I agree with the reasoning but for high status / high wealth individuals it might be different.

As a desert stalker Shani already has high social status on her own. It's why she was able to get close to the queen so easily, by being one of the few women of roughly close age and status.

I'm not going to respond to everything since I'm busy at the moment, but I'll counter you with this:

I think lesbian scenes are boring as fuck in most AVNs. So because of that, it's a waste of development time for Zetan to work on Shani + Queen scenes. I also hate sleep sex, rape, and prostitution. Any development time spent on those fetishes are a waste of time. See how that sounds? Basically, fuck everyone else who likes that, because this is what I want.

My point is - the dev put the fetish in the game. He's going to spend time on what he feels is good for a scene. He's going to continue to make it so those that don't like it don't have to experience it. It's not that big of a deal.

I think the fact Shani can be a virgin and someone else other than MC can bone her would be massive and i dont think dev wouldnt wanna miss out on that but take advantage of it

That seems a bit far-fetched to me unless it's a situation where the MC shows no romantic interest in Shani and it's an end-game scenario where she finds someone to marry and settle down with (and even then, it would probably be off-screen).

I don't think it counts in this game, it's so easy to give someone her virginity, unless it's in a <bad ending> or where Zeton doesn't treat her romantically and ignores her, but is it worth it? Don't know :Kappa:
