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

[0tt0von]

Huh, interesting scenario.

Though it does leave me wondering whether such scenario will work all that well tbh.
There would need to be a huge reason as to why Shani would stay loyal to the Queen and being in conflict with Zaton.

Something like the Queen holding Zahra & Ain hostage might just be enough reason for me to force Shani to follow the Queen (into fighting her dad. Anything less, I'd say probably isn't giving Shani enough credit), but even that has its problems (such as if the Queen somehow has Zahra and Ain hostage, why would she even need Shani at all? She can just control Zaton instead).
So yeah, interesting idea, but I just get the feeling it will be hard to pull off in terms of narrative.


In terms of anti-Stalker, something which came to my mind; it might be interesting if the Queen somehow got word that Zaton's master is alive and tasked Zaton to eliminate him.

I can certainly see Zahra as a valuable hostage but kidnapping that useless waste of space Ain would be doing Zaton a favor.

Just leave Ain in basement already and leave her alone

 

[Zerorox]

Nobody is talking about her but god damn if Zion isnt one of the hottest girls in the game, plus her hot headed and abrasive personality is chef's kiss. I really hope there will be some scenes with her when MC gets even closer to the raiders.

I expect some rough violent hate fuck with her in future.

Just curious, is the sharing path any good? Are there many choices to share your girls?

there isn't a "sharing path" per sé.
there are sex scenes that happen (or don't if you chose to avoid them).. and within them, if you have the sharing option active, you can decide whether to share (and who) or not.

The reason why I say that that's not a path is that you can have sharing active and still, on the spot, decide not to press the button that would, in that particular scene, make you share someone... and there isn't an escalation of it where, if you shared someone specific once, you have to share her again, or where she becomes available only for sharing or things like that.
there are plenty of games where if you start a girl on a certain path, you are sort of forced down that path or enhancing her availability to that path. that's not how we do things. Sex scenes are, within reason, independent from one another in terms of what you do with a girl. sure, there are a couple of characters where the has to be a progression because they were/are virgins or for other narrative reasons.. but even then, we generally avoid the often threaded step 1 is naked, step 2 is blowie, step 3 is boobjob.. type of progression.
So, yes, there is some sharing. Overall not a great amount... and it's always 1 of a number of options. the same scene can play out perfectly fine without the sharing... even without the sex altogether, usually.

I used the "sharing" option with Igor not even in a sexual sharing way, instead I used it to punish Ain ( implicitly ) because she was late and making Zaton and Zahra wait for her. I know Ain is a 'spoiled' naughty girl that likes to be punished by her daddy, Zaton so she just keeps making 'mistakes', I just removed the enjoyment she would otherwise gets from her punishment by letting Igor 'do the punishment'.

But yeah, hoping one day Ain will do Zaton household proud because reward sex ( as opposed to punishment sex ) is a lot better IMO.

Is sharing relavant to the storyline or its like as it never happened. Just a bonus to the sex scenes or what

Sex scenes means not much to story, it's not "pursue girls" type of game.
MC is Alpha, he just fuck bitches if he want, or not fuck if want not, there are few sex scenes only that really have impact on your future relationships.
Same with sharing scenes, that's type of pure dominant sharing, MC literally dominates and owns girls so decide to share or not to share.
You can freely turn on sharing options and never share your bitches after that in your playthrough. Your decision.

I wish I could but even leaving her in the basement she still shows up. I like the game I just wish Zaton wasn't so soft when it comes to Ain. Right off the bat she leaves the keys to a caged prisoner next to the cage they are in so they escape. Ivy certainly has the skills to murder everyone in their sleep, thankfully she doesn't. Zaton's response to Ain's mind numbing stupidity is "tsk tsk be better in the future" he should at least have the option to beat her with in an inch of her life for that. It seems a lot of people on here want to simp for Ain and they should have that option. I just want options for those of us who don't want to simp for that dumb cunt.

I meant more like does it ever get mentioned in the story that he fucked this and that or shared this and that, not whatever you are talking about

For example, if you shared Asha that one time, will she still remember that unpleasant feeling and remind Zaton or everyone will forget about it as it never happened

Though I like that little slut with daddy issues, I can totally agree 'bout options.
It Will be nice to have rough/strict/sweet variants of interactions with Ain.
And maybe same with decision 'bout her future more grobally.

I've already answered, sex scenes means not much to the story, zetans fucks like rabbits, MC is alpha rabbit. His girls Just do what he ask and never bitching 'bout.

You asked if there are few phrases changed cause you used shared options? I don' t think so, they never speak 'bout sex with MC, and MC don't listen to bitches mumblin'.

Ok, I get it, straight answer: NO (so far they dare not)

The game keeps track of player's choices ( there are variables for the sharing Asha, Ain, Zahra events ). But no one ( except the developers ) has any idea about how, when or if those choices be mentioned or used later. At the very least, the game code suggests that it is possible.

 

[Cynicaladm]

there have been a few instances where previous hanky panky has been referenced if it occurred, and ignored if it did not (as in we actually have different dialogues options depending on your choices).
the variation usually consisting in a few lines within a broader conversation.

this is not to say it will always happen and/or be relevant to the game/plot progression, but it might.
in no case, you will see a sex act referenced if you chose for it not to happen (and if you do find such an instance, it's a bug, so let us know).

my personal advice would be to leave the sharing option open and, if you'd rather not share, choose not to when the option is offered to you. if you choose not to, it will be as if it wasn't even offered. that way, you will be able to decide on a case by case basis.
the possibility to lock the sharing options altogether is there for those who dislike even knowing that, and where, the option exists

 

[Cynicaladm]

(and if you do find such an instance, it's a bug, so let us know).

actually, scratch that.. there's an instance/situation in the last update that we still need to fix, to that regard... so, bear with us whilst we work out how (or rather, wait for Z to return, and then work out how)... we are aware.

but otherwise, yeah.. it shouldn't happen

She seems the type to give it rather than receive it. If that crazed hellcat suddenly pulls out an arm dildo prosthesis then gtfo. Abort mission.

MC is stronger and have 2 arms, any questions?)

The dildo arm is coming for you in your sleep. Tonight when you turn out the light, lie head in pillow and close your eyes, you will think of this.

Its just bonus content is all and is irrelevant to the story.

I was kinda hoping that Zaton has this nightmare dream sequence, "that he was eaten by the Hive Queen after their breeding session ( like how praying mantis does ) and then there is Shani waiting for her father that never will come home ( inverse to the Shani scene in the Zone )" should he opt for breeding the hive route.
