Java Tales of Androgyny [v0.3.5.2] [Majalis]

[UndeadEve]

With the Pronoun option still being polled, I've gotta wonder...
How would that change things in a narrative way?

"Eh, yer not a girl are ye?"
"Oh, I am, hope you weren't confused."
"Ah, right. didn't realise. No offence, ye ambush all sorts."
"None taken, it's not always obvious, thanks for being considerate and making sure."
"Anyway, now that's out of the way, wanna get fucked in the ass?"
"NO, FOUL BRAGART, HAVE AT YOU BANDIT!"

And, like, how would that work regarding the FemCorruption stuff?

"...HA, YOU CUM FROM GETTING FUCKED IN THE ASS LIKE A GIRL!"
"Well, uh, yeah I did. I am one. You came in me like a man fucking a pussy, what of it?"
"... this is getting oddly personal, I'm gonna have to ask you to leave."
"What? Aren't you a Dem-"
"Look, I don't think you're a Hero I want to fight or fuck anymore... This just felt... I need some time to think about something, okay?"

You've cancelled the enemy, as well as given them identity issues, success! They're no longer hostile, except towards themselves!

I always found it stupid to be honest
I mean, i don't care what people calls themselves (as long as it's resonable) but hiro always called himself a male, even with everything that happens, even when you make him take it up the ass all the time, you may have his femininity at max, have done things like "I want to be a girl" from Alma or "i'm your girlfriend" from dullahan and yet he would still call himself a man
Trudy is the same
Kylira is the same
Changing pronous will break everything
And with the setting of "It's manly to wear girly clothes" it's even worse

This game is all about a girly looking boy going on an adventure and getting fucked by women with dick three or four times bigger than he is, and yet people complain that he's calling himself a he...
Why do people want to change things that much ? The game is great as it is, don't fix what's not broken.

 

[balitz Method]

Yeah, I don't really see that happening. Most scenes are written with fudging-the-boy-perspective in mind.

Never underestimate people, some can and will whine and cry until they have their way...

 

[Twiton]

Why do people want to change things that much ?

Because people want to play the game as a Futa themselves. Or to enjoy stuff with a self-insert that identifies like them, female.
It's a big thing for people that enjoy immersing into the porn they play/read/listen to. It's why content tags exist, but also gender neutral porn is a thing. Not everyone that plays these games is self-inserting as Hiro, they're enjoying the idea of being the enemies.

Hey, i get that, i like playing as a futa myself, but like i said, that's not this game
The point was, why fix something that's not broken

 

[Twiton]

Encounter/Outcome variants for Flaccid, Cage and many others exist. It may simply be a matter of creating encounter variant scenes for FemHiro that adjusts the dialogue and responses while keeping most of it the same. You're still the same Hero, you just react differently to their dirty talk and they aren't implying you're lesser for being a 'man' and instead more because you're an impure slut that claims to be a Hero.

It's not fixing what's broken, this won't change the existing content, it's adding onto the experience. It'd be an option in character creation for Adventure Mode.

 

[RC-1138 Boss]

I agree it is quite a strange thing in this case since Hiro always identified himself as a boy, no matter how girly he dresses.

ANyway, how is this poll going?

Yeah, tbh I kinda have a lot of interest to see how some characters that comment on that gender identity hold-up he has would react.
"Be my girlfriend."
"Okay."
"Uh, I was joking?"
"I'm not."

Which Poll? The current Patreon Polls or the Weekly Community Fan Poll?

Adding something that wasn't made to be in the game in the first place is not "adding to the experience"
And it's still against what the game is
Hiro IS a boy, not a girl and not a futa
And what you may think is only a simple adding something is actually a huge thing since it will change every scene in the game

 

[RC-1138 Boss]

This pronoun poll.

Then that could apply to every single Patreon Poll option. (including encounters and all other features)

Story Mode Hiro IS a boy. That's a fact.
Adventure Mode Hiro is an Orc/Mountainman/Elvish Boy/Futa(breasts)/Roaming Prostitute that regularly has sex, gets fucked and enjoys swallowing large amounts of cum often. That being someone that uses Male or Female pronouns isn't a giant leap, but it would be for those that want that to be the case when playing. It massively improves their playing perspective, while not impacting that of those who'd play MaleHiro. (To attribute the issue to Writing Changes taking a long time, while indeed a consideration, is the only acknowledgeable issue at this point I feel.)

It will not change the existing scene dialogue, altering nothing of the game for those that play it as MaleHiro, it will add scenes to the encounters for FemHiro. These scenes would be written alongside the MaleHiro scenes, or would be editied versions of them and simply be used as checks in a similar way to other scenes (Which has been shown to be the case for several expanded encounters, where variants are added on for Flaccid, Chastity, Cage, Buttplug, Mascu, Impure and so on.)
I trust the Majalis Duo to handle it well, if it passes polls, but I also have to wonder how long it has been a poll option. It could entirely be something they planned on their docket, using the polls to gauge priority for certain features over others (intending for it to allow fans to get specific features implemented first before others.)

And, just to be clear, I would love for a pronoun option BECAUSE it widens the playerbase even further.

 

[Twiton]

This pronoun poll.

It's one of the poll options in the Monthly Features Poll that goes up each month. People vote in the poll and the highest voted thing, through vote power granted by tiers, is given priority for that month's development. I'm fairly sure someone here has the post where Majalis posted here about how the Polls work, I'm TL;DRing a lot of it, but they use this so that the most requested stuff can get development priority depending on the current fan vibe of the game. Some months people want combat content, other months people want town/quest content.

And I'd like to show the current poll options, if I could, but I think they've changed a bit since I last checked. I know that several have been approved, for sure.

(Woot, 12000 posts on this thread!)

Try checking various Minotauress Oral stuff; including the defeat, pageant, labyrinth, combat and basic oral response scenes/outcomes.

Thanks for the replay. I tried your tips but it didn't work. I tried adding MINOTAURESS_ORAL_NARROW in the cgSeen section in Profile.json but it also didn't work. I have right now 100% profile so I am assuming I have done all scenes in the new update. I checked the file encouters.json but I didn't find something like MINOTAURESS_ORAL_NARROW in there, so I am wondering right now if it is possible to unlock it right now without cheat mod on.

There is a difference between adding content that is logical with the world and something that wasn't supposed to be added.
But yeah, i can't win against you, since you apparently know best
It's just changing one word right ? what's the harm, can't be that bad, it's only doubling the work, tripling or who the hell knows how much since their is a bazillion genders nowadays

My point was and still is, it wasn't supposed to be that way, you said it yourself, hiro is a boy, you may think it's only for story mode, but it's the same for adventure mode, you can change his looks but he's still a man (and just because you have breast doesn't make you a futa btw)
It's like, you make a character, you ask someone to draw it for you and the artist change it completely, it's not what you created.
You may think changing pronouns isn't a "giant leap" but it is

And are you sure you want people who doesn't care about what the game is supposed to be directing where the game is going ?

For what it's worth Twiton, i'm sorry
It's just that this game is maybe the only one i know of that is still fully what the devs wanted (and it's a good game) and i can't stand having the game being derailed because people don't like what the game is because of something stupid like what gender the character thinks he is.
I've seen to many games/movies/projects go to shit because of things like that.

This is a never-ending hole, if you start, people will feel entitled to their vision and it never ends
You start at pronouns, people will get mad that their pronouns is not in the game and it's not good for "representation", so you add more, more people will complain that they're not represented, then you're doing genders and genitals, because you have to represent everyone, and still people will be mad that they're not represented like they want to be represented, and then you change the content, because people don't like the characters or what they could do to them or how bad it could represent their whatever
and then the game is dead, never the same, never what it was supposed to be.

So, again, I'm sorry if i was aggresive or anything like that, making you feel bad wasn't what i was trying to so.

Like it wasn't to be stated in the Game Title.

The feeling is shared, trust me, I've had similar worries about different examples of over-extension for the sake of 'appealing to everyone'.
My vested interest, in female pronouns granting a larger player-base encouragement/comfort, is in a similar vein to the reasons I want Fetish Toggles. Some content in this game is not for me, as well as for other people it isn't, yet I don't want to ignore characters or areas because of that. Gods, it's why I avoid the Brothel Work & Back Alley. Because it's entirely men you service (except for a one-time unique scene), yet the one futa prostitute you can service is a 'punishment' and you're even disparaged for doing the Top options(No reward, plus no compensation for food lost regardless of skill, I'd hate to be Ivy TBH.) Would be nice if we could toggle sexuality content as a fetish, NGL, since some stuff it'd indeed be just changing words.

You whining about it here is really pointless

No, we're not starting an argument, please we're trying to scale things down.
