To be fair have you ever hang out with a genius? Being it woman or man, friend or partner, or even simply due to work relationships.

I'm not talking of boasting idiots who have money and connections and utilize them to make others do things for them, to then go on social media and boast about their invention and the future of mankind.

I'm talking about folks with actual "big brains", so much so that one can't avoid but noticing, well they note it too, they are "used" to be around folks who are not as smart as them and usually these interactions come across like.. well what Veronice does.

I'm not a total ignorant, but I'm not a genius either, had the luck to hang out for a bit with a genius type woman (via work), she absolutely wasn't arrogant in the classic sense, but that's the way she came off pretty much everytime whenever the topic was related to her fieldS of expertise (different story when talking about other stuff btw).

That's what happens with Veronica, she is extremely focused on a specific "topic" the rest is secondary, which means she doesn't dedicate too much attention and effort to it.

Karlsson's Gambit world is primarly a femdom world, what do you think is better to focus your energies on if you are a woman trying to save the world?
On trying NOT to be like pretty much every single other woman around? Why bother? It's easier (more efficient) to go with the flow and spend the extra energies on what one actually cares about.

The fact we can play as dom Kane, doesn't mean that everyone else around should be submissive, expecially folks like V. would completely destroy their character.

I do agree thou that I hope further romantic interactions with her could become a bit more romantic, thou I enjoyed the ones we got so far already.
Im not expecting everyone should be submissive by their choice. The men dont have any choice but to submit to women in that femdom world whether they are dom or sub except guys like Kane or that one man in Z2 rank. But, I wish to have some choices atleast in future for Kane to be at Z5 level at last and have a long ending and epilogue of how he changes the whole dynamics of company and make women submit regardless of their personal preferences. I just want to the turn the tables totally at the end of the game.

But, tess already told, DomKane can't do anything and is too soft to become demon. He will have just minimum choices regarding women submission and only for limited women (and that count will be even less if we exclude non-karlsson's family) even in Evil Dom path. So, I just expressing my wishes for this game, but well, I'm not the developer. It's Tess and I have problems with her, although I admire her for the great story and always will be.

y "Wait, you're saying [pname] needs to literally knock up one of you and produce a child? That man..."
ec "It's not just any child Yvette. He already has five living daughters."
v "Quite right Elena."
scene e5gr23 with mediumdissolve
v "We will go over the details soon, but my father wants a male grandchild. From the blood of his perfect woman...and himself. That child will be the true heir of this company someday."
v "It's not ideal as it's one generation removed, but this is what he wants."
y "But a child can't run a company. Even assuming this happens and he's born, what about in the meantime?"
scene e5gr24 with mediumdissolve
v "That depends on [pname] and the mother. If [pname] is worthy of power, he shall have it. If not, perhaps he will be nothing but a slave to the mother holding true power."
v "Perhaps they will be a partnership together, and they can run the company jointly. That is part of the program's purpose...to vet and test everyone."
v "But one or both of the parents of this child will have majority control of this company."
scene e5gr25 with mediumdissolve
y "Juliette will literally rape [pname] over and over to make sure she wins. And abort any girl and keep trying if necessary. Maybe the others too."
v "No! None of them can know. I have to tell you two now because I'll need your help with some specific things. But you must remain silent."
v "Especially you Elena. If I feel you are circumventing my father, you know very well I can and will react accordingly."


I think that we can safely assume that Veronica is running the gambit as she is supposed to. And part of that is giving Olivia and Kane a fair shot and keeping them safe while they do their tasks.
And what V will do when evil faction A (Dom) takes over with Kane and Juli in Partnership of a child? Settle in Island4 ignoring what will happen at company anymore? Yes, V cares about gambit, but it's not her goal. Her goal is always island4 and she care less about who sits on gambit throne. And Olivia is flexible for any ending with DomKane and making her as sub is even more helpful lol. Veronica can go and retire in island4 thinking world is gone to shits.

All Hail Domi+Juli Harem.

In another context V said :
v "If it comes down to it, I'll disappear as well. And remove shock control on all of our...workers."
v "Nobody will be able to recreate that control...especially if I sabotage things."
v "How long would any of you last with that scenario?"

AfaIk V stopped/killed evil Alexander Karlsson (by infecting him with Astrid's disease) and it's likely that she would act again if the winning faction is too evil ...

Consider that the game does not have the pregnancy tag ...
Kane is currently infertile and pregnancies take ca 9 months ...
Meanwhile africa is at the brink of revolution and a revolution might change the world within days ... it's more likely that the story will be resolved by a revolution and by the role Kane and Olivia choose to play in that revolution ...


The first round of Karlsson's Gambit produced 6 daughters : Alessandra, Dominique, Juliette, Olivia, Astrid and Veronica
The second round of Karlsson's Gambit having Kane fathering a son with one the daughters just might be a MacGuffin, a story device to drive the story which in the end may have no real effect on the outcome of the story ...
9 months for a baby are a long time if you consider that currently the game moves by 1 day per Episode and an Episode takes a year or more to produce ... (at this speed we could expect the first baby in the game around year 2300 or later)

Tess said all factions will be successful one or other way with our choices. So, yeah, evil Dom faction will be successful and Kane will able to manage to stop V from removing shock controls, but yeah she will escape to island4. You have to remember one thing. Alexander is not MC. Kane is MC. And he have more control in this game (with correct choices) in whatever faction you choose in Dom Paths.

In the outro for E8.2 Tess announced a Steam version :

Code:
    z "I'd also like to announce that I've started on a Steam version of KG!"
    z "Episodes 1 through 7 will be releasing on Steam in the near future as Act One or Season One."
    z "It will feature many different languages and some other changes to be discussed when I'm ready to speak more about them!"
I wonder how many changes/cuts Tess will have to do for a Steam release?

A main theme of KG is femdom and sadism. Excessive nudity, explicit sex, sexual slavery, torturing and killing other humans ingame just for entertainment and fun is likely getting the game banned from Steam immediately. Cutting all these scenes out will only leave a skeleton of the original and may completely change the character of the game from a femdom SciFi to likely an average SciFi-story.

Is there an official list by Steam what kind of adult content is tolerated for games sold on Steam?

If there will ever be a Steam Release I would recommend to keep a backup of the original (uncut) Season 1 in the OP.

Hersha, where did Tess say this stuff.. cuz she didn’t on the discord… in fact you’ll still be able to be a part of doing “evil” stuff, just not to the extent of Demon Kane… like your repeating the same rhetoric over and over without any basis of it being substationally supported behind… and we don’t know what kinda of choices to be extent we’ll have… sub and dom… but they will be impactful

The change in course might be related to future Steam plans ...

It's one thing to place the story in a world where evil things happen but another thing to allow players to choose evil actions for their characters to do, especially if the options become very evil (demon). (It's not a TV show like A Game of Thrones (without player interaction) where non-player characters can murder thousands of other characters ...) I think that choice matters for Steam and evil choices will reduce the chance for KG to be on Steam.

I noticed that the tone ingame changed towards the end of E8.2, especially when dom Kane talks to his 4 pod protégés (fourtalky) :

"...you never have to be sexually forced to do anything...you are protected from extreme requests. ..."

(This might be a onetime thing to protect his pod as dom and motivate the girls?
A previous scene featured public torture and execution of slaves but mc was just a viewer of the video feed and not interacting, so overall tone is still dark and evil.)

Kane to his 4 pod protégés :
(fourtalky)

amy "Master, I have a question. If a VIP asks us to do something...do we have to do...umm...anything they ask? We were told to do our best to make them happy...but..."
p "I got it Amy. Generally, you should be fine with basic groping and normal things being sort of...eye candy and servants."
p "But in terms of very strong sexual demands...no. If you have an issue or real concern, that's what I or Taylor are here for...you can always tell a VIP you need to see me."
amy "Thank you Master. I understand we're helping serve food and drink...and being...objects on some level. But you really answered my question, thank you!"
p "Good. Now as far as requests for VIP rooms after dinner, that's a case by case thing. You can ask exactly what a VIP has in mind...and then it just depends what they want."

p "Again...you never have to be sexually forced to do anything...you are protected from extreme requests. But practically, use your common sense."

p "Just see me if you have any concerns...I can manage any VIP and work out a solution. No VIP will object to you checking with your boss for clarifications."
p "While I expect excellent performance from you all, I wouldn't be doing my job as your Master if you didn't feel you could come to me with any concerns. That's my commitment to all of you."
p "If you perform well and make me look good...you can move up in rank and move towards a better life. The better I do...the better you all do. It's that simple."
p "Remember that the company picked you four with different goals than the guys in the show right now. None of you are pure throwaways in their minds."
p "While you can have a very bad fate with failure...success means you likely end up as a valued employee...or more. You have a chance to make it...so grab that chance and do well!"

...
chl "Master, if we are ok with doing sexual favors, do we still need to get permission from you?"
p "Yes. Although if it's something you want to do...I may not necessarily object. I just want to have that option available."
p "Also keep in mind it's quite possible that I personally could be invited or involved with a VIP room request too...so we'll see what happens."
chl "Got it Master."

...
p "Angelica?"
ang "I do have a question Master...not related to sex. But rather...non-sexual requests."
p "Such as?"
ang "I can give you a real example. Lady Charlotte approached me and asked if I was interested in whipping a male or two...I informed her I would like to speak to you before answering."
ang "My question is more related to limits...I would assume all four of us have our own comfort levels of what we would mind...or object to doing. I understand our rank right now but..."
p "...I got it. You're wondering how far you have to go if it's a non-sexual request...if you can refuse something very extreme."
ang "Yes Master [pname]. You're always so quick to catch on...but say Amy is asked to literally kill someone. Does she have to do it?"
p "The best answer I can give is that it's a case by case thing. I would say your best bet is to try and obey VIP requests...but if it's something you're worried about...let me know first."
p "Same principle as sexual requests...VIPs won't object to you checking in with me first."

...

That's more a setup for consensual nude service and consensual BDSM activities compared to the slavery, torture and exploitation of workers and prisoners in earlier parts.

(I myself am not a fan of sadism, so for me it's fine to protect the girls and limit danger for them ...)
I think you’ll be surprised but who knows

Tess has long since played it safe, and since white heterosexual men are being tortured and killed in KG, it fits perfectly into the unhealthy agenda that prevails in many spheres, including the gaming industry. As I have written many times, no one gives a shit about men, so Tess, with her femdom/male slavery-oriented game, fits perfectly into this state of affairs. That's why KG will never be attacked by crazy activists/feminists from Collective Shout and others.

And since she decided to tone down the content involving the torture of women (although, to be honest, this game never really had any content where DomKane would torture female slaves on his own, without the participation of other Karlsson sisters) the game is as safe as possible from any activists.

That's why Tess had better be honest with all of us and not play dummy, pretending that the removal of demon content and Juliette's path happened solely because she wanted "to scare away inadequate patrons" who wanted more torture :WaitWhat: content for women.

And then in the next sentence, claim that she really loved creating these scenes with harsh treatment of women...Yes, yes, of course, she loved it so much that she decided to delete them all to hell...and at the same time make the rest of the Dom route, which she were perfectly happy with before, more soft and vanilla.

Are you seriously bringing culture war bullshit into this? Get over yourself man. This particular porn game is not an attack on your gender and race.

Is there a list of to be deleted scenes?

I haven't played it yet but I know from script that the dark Dominique path must have some strong scenes, Dominique whipping Kwame's wife ... and there is also an option to whip Mercy later (which might be payback for what she does to subs.)

I am not into sadism ... so I don't enjoy the scenes where people are tortured just for the fun of some audience ... however it is different if characters "earned" their punishment before by being evil or failing their job or if they agree to it to progress in the hierarchy like Katsumi or just as part of a sexual roleplay.
I wouldn't mind if the game would feature more "spankings" or similar punishment for the female staff if they fail instead of body shocks or licking the ground. They all have very spankable bottoms and spankings can have a more sexual effect than body shocks.

I never said evil path is totally smashed, I said kane is soft to become demon. He will never be demon according to Tess New plans. And I'm repeating this over and over again because so many new evil dom players are imagining great evil things for evil kane, which won't happen. Yes, there will be some impact yes, but not in the true capacity. This much Tess confirmed already many times.

I like sadistic scenes. But, putting that away, no scenes are deleted. The scene with kwawe's wife or mercy whipping is done on the guidance of Dominique. She is the one who encourages kane to do those scenes, she is the planner, and you are the executor. So, it is nothing but female to female violence but in the indirect form. Most of the scenes will be like this in this game, mostly the indirect approach. Kane won't take his own decisions on punishing women in a hard way. Always some women encourages him, or even if Kane take decision, it will be a woman who punish other women on Kane's orders. This is the way Tess always avoided Patreon and MasterCard's rage. But, as Stan5851 said, she isn't very direct about this truth.

If Mf violence is a problem, Tess can move the scenes to the Olivia part and turn them into Ff scenes. From the player's PoV it's not much difference if Kane or Olivia punishes a female. You can even give Olivia a strap-on and she has all the options Kane has.

So… dom players won’t be able to experience Demon Kane… but they will still be able to experience evil Kane… your just basing this entire thing to what ur subjective likeness is on what actions Kane will be able to preform.. Not all dom players want to go as far as what you want in terms of actions able to be done against some of the characters… like.. evil Kane won’t be soft at all, just not to the extent of what some dom player want in terms of cruelty

I recently replayed the game from start to end of 8.2 (dom path) and noticed a general basic problem known from photography and graphic design.

The images are in horizontal 16:9 format. Main objects of interests are slender female models on high heels in a ratio of ca 1:3 (= 3:9) (horizontal:vertical) when standing.

If a character is shown in full size (head to heels), more than 80% of the image are not used and have to be filled with other characters and objects. The character model itself appears rather small.

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

Tess navigates this problem by often dividing the standing characters in 2-3 areas of interest and focussing on one of these areas:
- head and upper body vs lower body with legs and feet
- head vs main body vs legs and feet.

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

Scenes with full bodies are rare and work best if there are many characters in the image.

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

Usage of available image space is better for horizontal (lying) characters. The ratio is opposite to the above ca 3:1 (= 15:5) and so covers around half the image. However the number of potential lying scenes is usually limited.

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

I personally enjoy images where focus characters are completely shown head to heels the most.
Throughout the game most of the images are either partial view or a zoomed out total view where characters often are actually too small to enjoy them and the (beautiful) location itself was the main theme. The number of nice full body pinup views of characters is limited. I think there should be a balance in numbers between location images, full character images and partial views.

I know from other games that there seems to be an option to have larger vertical images in ren'py, eg 16:18 or 16:27 instead of 16:9 (or maybe just use a standard image size as vertical 9:16) . The game then shows the image scrolling top to bottom or vice versa and afterwards the player can scroll the image as he likes. Such a pinup format would be optimal to show (vertical) focus characters with their special clothing and jewelry in detail.

Is this general problem discussed on discord?

Agree
Imho most to all of the female characters in KG have great bodies and great outfits ...
In short my post was about the point that those great bodies more often should be appreciated in full size (pinup) images ingame.
