Ren'Py Desert Stalker [v0.19.4] [Zetan]

[Ummmh]

I pretty much guarantee there won't be unavoidable content like that as there would be a huge fan backlash. Now, it certainly is possible that something like that could happen if you make or have made bad choices. There's been some "bad ends" before in this game.

Yep. And I've noticed those bad ends always seem to involve SHANI getting stuck in a trap or killed, not the MC...

Desert Stalker might secretly be her story more than the MC's. I mean she is technically an obvious Lara Croft stand in...

 

[Canto Forte]

More so than the queen? More so than the palace guards? More so than getting kidnapped and killed in the market in Zeta?
She is a trained Stalker .. will see how this game utilizes or forgets this based on player choices,

it would be highly risky for a stalker to be pregnant in the field

Sure, the tales of Lara Croft getting raped or anyone in her party getting raped are legendary, right!

Like I said, I could see how next update might have a "bad end" circumstance come up that you can otherwise avoid.

Like this one earlier on, which is completely avoidable with proper choices.

It was a long time ago when I last played. Can someone tell me, can we fuck Omar already?

3 - As for the cliffhanger, I´m on the side that feels that it isn´t too far-fetched that our Stalker got surprised and ambushed. Maybe because this game is a male power fantasy where man and muscle seem to mean invincible, the fact is that our MC isn´t a superhero. He gets tired, he gets distracted. Yes, he is very skilled at his work, probably why he´s been doing it for about 20 years, but he certainly isn´t the only skilled person out there. I´m sure people who thrive in the desert with all its dangers have skills to match the Stalkers of Zeta. The Queen saying she is the Queen could prove stupid, but in an act of desperation and scared as she was, she said the thing that usually solves her problems.

(Emphasis mine)

Personally I very much view Stalker as "Basically Batman". His instincts about his environment and the many different societies he has to navigate are so razor sharp that he can accomplish miraculous, almost Stuish feats. But just because he's capable of so many things, doesn't mean he can't get overwhelmed once and a while. And this is just one of those rare times, it seems.

Concept render: Yuna

Her story trails deep into forgotten days, and on that one day, it nearly ended. Yet her tower remains, its walls still carrying the echoes of what she left behind.

Still annoyed that it's taken Stalker so long to reclaim his runaway property. He has that truck now, he can probably tie her cage to the bed, next time he drives to her little hidey hole.

Does anyone know what DAZ Assets are used for Ain?
P.S. Sorry if I'm repeating questions that have been asked before.

 

[Sensu]

game are still having same huge mistake from before version..

guessing dev are wanting keep it in game for next 4 month or even more time..

before 19.2 View attachment 5252442 d5e having 3 unique animation​

after 19.2 View attachment 5252444 d5e having 2 unique animation (2 now same)​

It seems that the new d5e-21 was supposed to replace d5e-21x.
Just extract it in game root folder.

No, not more so than the queen. But MC had no reason to think the queen would ever be out there, so it was a completely different situation. Think about it.

The only concern w/the queen is the trouble getting her pregnant could cause, but blame could easily be deflected to someone else, or the queen could just fall back on a "virgin birth" trope (if she has ever heard or read of that concept), as she is supposedly divine, so could likely float the story to worshippers (tho the Elders and unbelievers alike would know its BS)

The queen is also a case of the MC absolutely needing to establish dominance, as not having it over Merneith could be disastrous, given her demonstated jealousy and threats against his family: he HAD to definitively put her in her place, as now that he had started this path, stopping midstream would be inadvisable.

...

The palace guards are servants of FAR less status than the MC, plus Talia is a well-known cumbucket for everybody, and Lirah couldn't stop running her mouth, to the point where the queen herself was the one who insisted she get pregnant.

...


Lara Croft not getting molested in her own official games is irrelevant, as Tomb Raider is not a porn series: it would need to be called Womb Raider, if it were.

It is the overall image and style of Lara they went for, almost fully, with similar outfits when at work, the ponytail instead of hair buns or more sensibly tight-to-skull braided hair, and her having dual weapons, tho blades in this case, as no one has guns, for some reason.

Assaults in Lara's own official series were not the topic of discussion. Again, you need to think things over before typing, as your thoughts seem disordered and misguided, so you miss the whole point, and get indignant over nothing except your own assumptions abt what is said, rather than what is actually being said.

I suspect you're being sarcastic, but just in case you're not.. I'm pretty sure he's moved past the "you're property" phase of the relationship. For a certainty he actually respects her now, so much so that wanting her is actually kind of an afterthought: one that he only distractedly thought of while watching her naked and dripping wet.

Plus, she's pretty capable in combat, and might be able to give him a run for his money. She has repeatedly demonstrated high human level, or even superhuman combat capacity, at least with regards to speed, agility, and accuracy, and even (for her size and musculature) a surprising amount of strength: she is deceptively strong, to the point that she can leap and pull herself up and around great distances and in a hurry, so is clearly far more fit than she appears.

That said, she's still a little thing, and did get herself caught by Decayed, so maybe not that much more capable than a human.

He might have. but that makes one of us.

 

[Ummmh]

He does need to hit that sweet spot at some point: preferably soon

I think it's being strongly implied that the Dark-eye-dyed folk are the Legion who showed up at the gate of the Raider-controlled settlement, and this allows two plotlines to be brought together in a single fight, which could end up uniting presently opposing political factions (like Zeta and the Raiders).

I disagree: on the final scenes i don't see trace of heavy body modifications, trademark of the legion. The fact they mention a fantomatic father makes me think it's people of the faction that attacked Shani during her mission in the zone.Not that is better but if we want to speculate this is way more possible imho.

Oh it's definitely the people who attacked Shani.

I think the speculation is that those people are also the Legion, although I haven't had the opportunity to go back through my many many saves (if you have a lot of saves it's actually very time consuming to go through them since they don't really have a skip function in the search) to look at the Legion member who showed up at the overpass gate to see if he had darkened skin under his eyes.

EDIT:

Actually, now that I think back about it, that's right... The Legion was heavy into body modification. I went back over those scenes and yet not everyone has darkened eyes in the Legion, but body modifications is the heavy theme, so Shani's previous and renewed enemies aren't the legion, which makes it less likely that the Raiders will encounter them and save them.

Which end was that? In the pyramid in the first mission w/her and MC? If so, I think I might have last played that one before there was artwork for the bad end.

Guys do you fapped a lot? This game is so masterpiece.I feel so tired now. Will we analized queen in the future?

 

[Canto Forte]

Sadly players be speculating she might get poked in all positions by the horde. Their engagement is this out of touch with the game, plot, scenes and character arcs of the characters, they just jump on the gang ruffians waggong.

Skip button be too heavy or too far away from your position to keep pushed a little longer? You might do well to remember even the basbarians that attack MC right from the get go in the very beginning of this game are restless about trying to gang ruffle the feathers of their own leaders, let alone somebody else's leader. In this game, Zetans, barbarians, or decayed do not need mental gymnastics to be evil and vile and hard plus dangerous to live with, let alone near or opposite.

Yep it's the first mission with her, also you can have bad ending on her mission in the zone, other than that i don't know.

If you can find a skip button on the SAVE/LOAD page I'll be more than happy to use it, but there isn't one that I found, and that's why I have trouble locating specific points in the story because I have hundreds of pages of saves that I have to click through.

It's because I go back and try out multiple paths on most stuff, and save on the different branches, and I tend to save on very interesting artwork.

As for the rest about the temperament of the various groups I'm not really sure what you're on about.

Yep it's the first mission with her, also you can have bad ending on her mission in the zone, other than that i don't know.

Yeah that's the only two Bad Endings I know (both are for her), as well
