Count me as "Exhibit A" for one who very much likes Stellar Crossroads. It's clearly not for everyone - no game is - but, it also seems that a lot of people like it, "grind" notwithstanding. Honestly, in-game resource accumulation and management is only "grind" if you choose to see it that way and adopt an achievement-centric gameplay approach (and "experiencing as much 'fap material' as possible, as soon as possible" seems to be the only 'achievement' that matters for some). I consider Stellar Crossroads an "adult RTS" game (think StarCraft II or Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri with porn elements) where resource accumulation and management are fundamental gameplay elements. Perspective matters.
An interesting take on the subject, thanks for dragging us back on course. I do like the characters and story of the game, and in principal I like the concept of what the dev(devs?) is/are doing with the... lets call it? Industrial? aspect. I just think it could use a bit of tweaking to provide some fun to it or reduce the volume of it needed. The nuts n bolts of the hoppers and smelting was creative as hell and a fairly original idea.

As many of you know by now, I am on the dev team that Xavster has created. Even I know that there are flaws in the current system. Unfortunately at this stage in the development process we are almost completely finished with the industrial side of the game. That being said, we are always willing to take suggestions over on discord.

Thanks,

LD Wolf

Yeah, I'm probably a little atypical of the majority of the folks here at F95. I'm here for the porn like virtually everyone else here, but I tend to prefer soft-to-medium-core porn content in the games I like, and I generally don't lean toward what would generally be considered "kinks" (incest, DP, actual NTR, AtM/A2M, femdom, maledom, anal in general . . . you get the idea). I'm also looking for an entertaining interactive experience rather than what I call "quick fap material". It doesn't make sense to me to use a game for fap material; I figure if someone was looking for that, something like Pornhub or MyFreeCams would be a better source.

Besides erotic content, I look for quality visuals in general, an interesting storyline, and good writing and dialogue. Stellar Crossroads is one of the relatively few games I've come across that checks those boxes for me, but of course for others, YMMV.

I agree on most of that I call it the 'tap tap fap' mentality where they whine if more than 3 lines of text go by w/o a sex scene or cry because they need animations to get off.... Plot is king for me and for a good plot you need good characters. Callisto and Stellar Crossroads have a lot going for it, which is why I wanted to address what (in my opinion) is dragging it down pretty hard.

Eh, I wouldn't be so sure if valuing writing, story and characters (and sex with those characters, in the context of those stories) over quick-access fap material is such a small minority here.
Sure, there's a significant segment that wants their sex scenes now, they want them frequent, they want them animated and if that isn't met they'll complain loudly.
But being louder doesn't necessarily being that more populous - not to mention, if you value plot&characters and a game fails on that, you'd probably just go "meh, plot and/or characters aren't doing it for me" and move on. Demanding more sex is straightforward, demanding plot/characters you like more...*shrug*

(For that matter, I'd argue that valuing plot/pron is a mostly unrelated axis to "preference in kink", but let's not open that barrel of fun :ROFLMAO: )

sounds like it. or you made wrong choice at some point like allowing those warmongers to use gates for their warships.

I didn't play Callisto because the lesbian content was unavoidable. I don't see any future tags here and because I am interested in playing I would like to know what fetishes, like lesbian, will be in this game and if so will any of them be optional?

Thanks for answering. I like to support good creators who make content that i like but when they don't tell me what fetishes they plan to include so that I can decide then I am forced to wait until their work is done to play it.

Yeah... on the dev team here and still unable to answer definitively. Historically, we know that Xav is not opposed to lesbian content as in Callisto, Julia, Tiffany (with Julia), Tanya, Lia (with Tanya & special event with Tanya+MC) and Jill are all bi and Alice and Rachel are a lesbian couple. So, I must admit to it being quite possible. However, I have no clue as to which, if any, girls would be involved should Xav decide to add lesbianism to the gameplay here. Personally, I would love to see Maive and Skylar getting hot and heavy, MC walks in and the girls say, "you were taking too long so we started without you." That's Phat's personal fantasy there.

The issue with this crew is that the personality types are all extremely different and therefore pairing them off as lesbians is much more difficult. It would be easier in a special scenario at the "club" or alien planetary excursion where the characters have been written specifically for those scenes. Eventually, MC gets the opportunity to romance all of the ladies aboard his asteroid space station. It will just take a lot longer to implement as the scale of Stellar Crossroads is many times larger than Callisto. Just to give one example... in Callisto there were a handful of gates, 6-8 at most iirc... Stellar Crossroads will open many, possibly all of the gates and yes... we get to free travel to a shit load of destinations! Just pick a place and go! Nova shows us the gate map with connections below...

That's a LOT of gates! Only Xav knows what he has planned for the Orion galaxy this go around!

Personally, I'd love to see the planet that MC mentions in Tanya's ending... Nubalean

well we still haven't explored space much so lesbian sex is possible (i'd say 1% of what was explored in callisto).

Use 0x52 urm mod to see variables just load your save to editsaveonline(just use it to look at variables do not edit save)
the only variable I use is (credits) then I just buy everything and if you run out credits just add more. unzip and throw the file inside into game folder when you start or load game a pop up window will show just say you don't want see message, then ingame just press alt+m and there tou see the screen type credits into search will show the money you have and clcik remember to save that variable. Just click on credits box to add.
thank you ! I will try that when I play the game again because I remember not understanding crap about how to make money on this one like I just got lucky and I would skip days and days on the same cargo setings and the money kept going up but It was too early stage of the game, no sex or nudes to be found . I realy did enjoy how the sex scenes were played in the prequel callisto when you are in control of every move in a realy fluid ,almost natural way, with simple buttons to press for a specific action ( and well animated too! )

Send me save I'll add enough money so you or your family never need any for next 200 games. I just buyed, all didn't send ships out to gather but gonna let this game off my list, might try it again in the future(if I haven't kicked the bucket). Dev could've left same trading as Callisto and saved time instead trying to make us go college so we know how to do mining, when hacking money is all you need.
