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

[Ummmh]

My god, you seem to be taking my comment about "choking on dick" way to seriously. It was meant as a way of saying that I doubt the Developer would ever go there with the story.
But even then, did you miss the part of my comment where I actually took in consideration that the house might not be a fully safe place to make a possible storyline for the MC?
Here:


Again, I don´t see the story going there with any character, but the possibility is there, if the Dev wants it.
As for that Zahra side note, you really went above and beyond to make a John Wick comparison, huh? In her case, it was mostly Rabiah´s fault, she kept taking what she wanted from the MC and giving very little, if at all, back. She always left him blue-balled, he has to empty them somehwere.


If that ever happened, I want to see it. If the characters is important, then it is even more important that you should see and feel something about it.

The choking comment was just too good to pass up on.

Rab was totally at fault 100%. Zahra just capitalized on it at the earliest opportunity. Rab really is her own worst enemy.

Did we enslave Ain?

So during the restaurant date with Zahra, the waitress said it was her father who put the collar on her and Zahra immediately quipped that the father was a horrible man for enslaving his daughter.

Does putting a collar on someone automatically make them a slave? And did we enslave Ain when we put a (very nice looking, gold) collar on her after the market incident?

She's not enslaved. I don't know all the nuances of the collar, though.

Katheryna scene in your harem needs to get an animation, not just static images.

It seems a collar is kinda mandatory for household slaves - which has a distinct clothes. It shows the owner so I guess someone less likely to mess with him - as it's probably someone rich and influental at least a bit.

Yeah, there are a couple of lines in there that talk about it, but I don't remember exactly. What you said, and I think there was another after she was grabbed in the market that she needed to wear it for protection.

Which speaks incredibly poorly about the security of Zeta, if there are rogue slavers just openly kidnapping citizens in the marketplace. Slavery being legal does not mean that you can just grab anyone you want and make them your slave, it's never worked like that.

Considering her lewd tendencies, I assume it more of a safe guard to show others, that she belongs to someone else.
So in public she walks around as "property" to safe her from getting snatched like before?

my dumbass thought Shani made a sad face when I saved her, so I thought that maybe that was a bad call and I decided to let her die

To be fair, you were bringing home an unknown person who belongs to a group that usually causes danger to Stalkers and people of Zeta in general, so she wasn´t that wrong to be suspicious of it.
I brought her home because first, I´m playing as a Stalker who always tries to be a good person, and second, I figure the game would give me a chance to either corrupt her or make her an ally, which actually ended up happening.

You don't have to kill her to miss out, or at least you used to not have to. There at least used to be (IIRC, think I got hit w/it once) a bug where she became inacessable in the basement, if you didn't go to Adira w/her early enough.

That said, OP said he left her to die, which I guess was where she was first encountered in the Decayed camp. As much as I've always grabbed her, it actually is a valid position if the MC decides trying to take this unknown raider would be potentially confrontational in the middle of an enemy base, while he was there with his daughter.

She didn´t became inaccessible, she got tired of waiting for you and left on her own, lol. Just kidding.
As I answered to OP just now, I totally get why you , the Stalker, would leave her there. But...it´s a hot girl in a AVN, you just have to trust the process

Fair enough .

Well, let´s Rabiah has a chance to redeem herself. And her daughter can also help to make up for all those times the MC got blue-balled.

 

[Ummmh]

She didn´t became inaccessible, she got tired of waiting for you and left on her own, lol. Just kidding.

She's certainly impatient enough to try, even w/a shotgun collar on, but I like to think it was her appreciation for the sleep/wakeup sex she got from MC that kept her.

But...it´s a hot girl in a AVN, you just have to trust the process

DAMN SKIPPY.

Esp for a PURPLE TWIN-TAILED hot girl in a AVN. That there's a bucket list item. Probably on ALL the well-traveled-tourists' maps, too (an oft-visited attraction).

Rabiah ... her daughter can also help to make up for all those times the MC got blue-balled.

Nadia is spun gold. Not pure spun gold, because that grrl is far from pure, but hot gold, all the same. She NEEDS to join the harem, with occasional participation from her mother. You gotta know Zhara would gloat abt that, too.

PS, on a related note, just noticed the Nadia pic post above above mentions a change to the household... WHICH household? Rab and Omar's- so just more freedom? Or MC's, so maybe getting a new harem grrl in Nadia? I suspect the former, sadly, but a guy can hope.

From what was said to Ain, I think so. Zetan slavery may be a lot worse than ancient slavery. Note that this makes sense in context, as it follows the "might makes right" standing law of the land.

For a certainty, the ancient Egyptians were a lot more laid back abt it.

The Romans used a similar marking system; their collars literally had an "if found, please return to" note on them.

Romans would also tattoo/brand slaves, most famously on the forehead. Forehead mark makes me immediately think "Jaffa! KREE!!!"

Which speaks incredibly poorly about the security of Zeta, if there are rogue slavers just openly kidnapping citizens in the marketplace. Slavery being legal does not mean that you can just grab anyone you want and make them your slave, it's never worked like that.

This is a violent world. Zetan law is literally "might makes right", just with caveats that money can buy power (tho not respect, as we see w/Omar), and many weak folk can kill a few strong ones, so don't be a COMPLETE dick to those below you.

We have this basic convo in game w/a guy who got his hand bit by a mutant he caught.

Remember that Ivy was set to potentially be sold by MC before she escaped, and Kyra almost got sold by him, as well.

The queen is just top dog due to supposedly being divine, and having an army, but we have seen it played out that if you can take a thing (things including ppl taken as slaves), it is yours.

I just started playing through this game and it's really interesting so far, definitely a cut above the average 3d/smut renpy game. I have a question if anyone wouldn't mind answering, though. How often does the game present choices that can close off significant chunks of the story? And do the "wrong" choices ever pay off in some small way?

For example, by the end of day two we could have left Kyra for dead and given the girl back to the merchant. I get the feeling both choices would've cut off some plot line (the raiders and the "elf"), but the dialogue suggested we might at least see what became of them eventually. Does that happen, or is the game just teasing?

I'm tempted to do a second "bastard" play through, which I expect to have less content, but if there's nothing to see at all I won't bother with that approach.

It has what I would personally say, a good amount of this or that choices. If you want to know how much exactly and don't mind not being 100% blind. the PDF Walkthrough under Extras on the main page, is really well done and helpful.

perdon what ? where is that stated ? MC never did even voice this intention to anyone, nor it is hinted by the narrator.

 

[Master of Puppets]

And also remember that neither of them were Zetan citizens. Being able to claim slaves from barbarians outside the kingdom is a completely different situation to it being open season on other citizens.

IS this teasing Nadia content for next update? Yes, please!

She didn´t get wake up sex from me, but I get your point. In my case, she probably appreciated not getting raped in her sleep.

DAMN SKIPPY.

And then later you find out she is Asha´s sister? Can´t get any better.

It is probably related to Nadia´s house and not Zaton´s. Omar probably had to adjust to the Zetan customs.
Although if you go to the common room, you´ll noticed there is an empty pillow on the floor, as if to say there is room for one more

Zetan did think that Yuna (Ivy) might be valuable because elves were rare. He never said anything about making her a slave or even selling her. He was only worried about her, due to the safety of his family.
Zetan did have the opportunity to say something to Kyra about making her a slave (this was a choice), but he was never serious about that. He figures out quite quickly, that there are much better uses for her.
Also, if Kyra were turned into a slave, a huge part of the story would end abruptly.

Our protagonist is called Zaton. The demonym of the city of Zeta is Zetan. Honestly there's way too much Z's in this game, though not surprising as the city name is literally the Greek letter Z.
