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.
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:

Sometimes the dev takes time out of the development time to go take a shit.
Sometimes he has spicy food, and taking a shit takes longer (and burns).
Should he stop eating spicy food because it takes more time away from programming than bland food and someone out there cares to have an opinion?
(It's also worth noting that the computers he works with continue the rendering process and generating the animations even when he's taking a shit, so the actual time lost is minimal anyway.)

I would like whoever has a "problem" with any specific fetish, whether it's sharing, pissing, anal or an other, to count the total number of images and animations dedicated to it specifically (not the numbers of scenes, the number of images actively depicting that fetish), and calculate the percentage of images that represents of the total number of images in the game. I would like them to write that small number on a piece of paper and, since that number still does not reflect the amount of time and energy actually dedicated to anything specific, I would like them to take that piece of paper, roll it up tight and do something creative with it.

We will, as we have always done, decide for each character what fits best for that character as the story progresses, whether it's sexual content or not... However much time it takes away from taking a shit.

Time and resources allocation is nobody's business but his.
Anyone who has an opinion about it can shut up about it or express it with their wallet, as I would expect anyone to do anyway, and decide to support the dev or not and even stop supporting him if the game or parts of it become a disappointment.
He is not entitled to your money and you are not entitled to dictate how he should develop the game, even when you do give him said money.

To clarify, the above is my PERSONAL opinion on any game, whether I'm involved with making it or not. Unless the author does the idiot thing of letting the supporters vote on where to take the story and throws creative control in the bin working basically on commission, that's how it should be.
I hope we can all be adults and you won't go give Z aggro because of my words.

I'm fine with both lesbian scenes and the lesbian fetish, when well done; sleep sex, rape and prostitution are generally not my thing.

* I thought it was great story telling when Zaton made the younger raider sister Asha pay for attacking him by taking oral from her - the price for defeat. Was it rape - yes, but it set the tone for the world of the story and, in particular, the lawlessness of the wastes versus the law within Zeta proper.

Put simply - it was not gratuitous rape - AKA rape for the sake of rape - it was a way to help tell the story.

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

This was an important part of setting the tone in this new, brutal world - after all it is not Mr. Rogers Neighborhood.

So - you hate rape, and I thought this had an important place in the story telling, - agree to disagree.

I'm fine with the dev not giving us Shani and the Queen lesbian scenes.

I Want more of the Zaton/Shani/Queen story line and the sexy time the 3 of them shared in the thermae - all as part of the story.

My primary points re: the potential expansion of the sharing fetish were:

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.'


And, having commented on the lesbian sex example and my desired focus on the Zaton/Shani/Queen story arc - I accept that we must also agree to disagree re: the sharing expansion/Shani sharing.

I suspect that we enjoy many of the same things about DS.

We must agree to disagree on some areas as we clearly have some fetishes/aspects of storytelling that we enjoy to different degrees...

I can accept that. (y)

I'm looking forward to the next release of Desert Stalker and I hope that the release on the big stage - Steam - goes well.

I plan on buying it even though I already have full access as a $ supporter.

Cheers!! :coffee:

Not that I want it to be that way but, is the game gonna come back to the brutality of the start at some point? The game used to promise brutal violence and radical choices but after the early two or three scenes, that never came back again. It's still supposed to happen? Or the game was intentionally toned down to be published on steam?

Man nobody cares if you are supporter or what your kinks are.

Also raping someone isnt a story exactly, its like saying i just woke up today it was a great story telling.
It seems like you dont know what story is but only care about sex scenes.

Yall seriously be counting how many sharing scenes there are lmao
I can barely think of 3 or 4 meanwhile theres 20+ others
