It's not useful criticism because it's a point that's been asked and answered a hundred times; there's nothing to be done about it. We're not hiring another artist for consistency. And kissing art is art for scenes without art. It's a waste of everyone's time to argue about which scenes get art first.
Here, I'll put it another way: "your game doesn't need music for each character" is perfectly valid criticism. I also disagree with it, and so the discussion is over. I want music for every character, and it doesn't cost me or Alis much time, the actual "resource" we need to manage. If I had asked what a porn game "needs", this game would be an art gallery.
On the topic of useful criticism, was hoping I could ask the following:
1. Bug reports - is there a current plan with addressing bug reports? Because it all but seems like the bug report threads are destined to have little to no reply, and then be archived / discarded.
Discarded thread: https://itch.io/t/139487/known-issues-and-bug-reports?before=403
Current thread: https://itch.io/t/1414117/known-issues-and-bug-reports?before=283
Period of inactivity with regards to bugs:
2. Game resolution - is there any possible way that the game resolution could have the "Maximized" option use the native OS' Maximize UI? Because currently, at least on my display, the "Maximized" option results in things being cut off. This goes for a number of resolutions used for the game.
Miss the old option to be able to Maximize the screen native to the OS and have it be automatically correct to the display, with nothing cut off.
3. The "futa+" filter - is there any possibility of it restricting / changing more scenes? I know I asked this question before, and the post was deleted for some reason, but it just seems like the filter / option could have more of an impact. Such as restricting scenes with male NPCs - like for example Jack in the centaur village game over. Doesn't really make sense for his encounter / scenes to still be present when Ella is already an option (as in, she could probably be the only option with "futa+" enabled). Another would be the male goblins being restricted, seeing as Selkie is the futa alternative.
Just wish it would have more of an impact, or have more practical use than altering a select few encounters / scenes.
However, this would probably require an additional filter (such as "male+") if people wished to encounter both (or interact with male NPCs), so yeah. Might not be feasible, but I'm hoping with the new encounter editor it would possibly make the process easier, if you deemed the change to make sense, and / or be something Patrons would be interested in.
4. More forewarning with some of the encounters / scenes - is there any possibility of having some more warning about certain scenes? For instance scenes where Hiro inadvertently ends up on the receiving ends of things, despite no "Requires: Slut" being present.
Almost seems as though (currently) one has to read through the script.js if they want to make sure a certain encounter / scene isn't going to play out like that - due to some of the scenes not having that "Requires" warning show up (such as the Brigand Oral scene, or Trudy's in-camp training).
5. More of a gripe than anything else, so not necessarily criticism - but is there any possibility of some of the NPCs to change their attitude toward Hiro? For instance Urka or the "Weresluts". It just seems a bit odd that they act (and in some cases, explicitly mention) that Hiro is more powerful / strong than them, yet they easily overpower Hiro right after that (Urka post defeating her topping her scene, where she forces Hiro to perform fellatio on her and seemingly takes control halfway through the deed & the "Wereslut" after defeating her with high Strength without the "Scentless" perk).
Seems like Hiro just isn't meant to have any form of control with certain NPCs, despite them (the NPCs) seemingly initially implying as such.
Would like it if there was a possibility of certain NPCs that are typically dominant being able to become more submissive after repeatedly being defeated (Hiro being victorious) - otherwise it just seems like there's no real point trying to interact with certain NPCs, because the only content for them will always be dominant in nature.
Another thing I'd add on here is that Trudy has a weird mix of characterization of being a "powerbottom" when initially encountered - yet upon recruiting suddenly is pretty much explicitly dominant ("topping") towards Hiro and Kylira. Only appearing to (really) "bottom" for (masculine) Male NPCs or Futa NPCs, such as Urka.
Again, seems a bit odd considering one of the paths for recruiting Trudy is outsmarting him, and beating him in combat. The "bratty" nature is fine, but not really having any sort of respect or be willing to truly "bottom" for Hiro just seems a bit odd when considering the above.
Anyway, would really appreciate a reply to the above, because, as far as I can tell to date, I'm pretty sure you've never actually replied to any of my posts, despite me replying to you multiple times.
Such as this initial post (https://f95zone.to/threads/tales-of-androgyny-v0-3-26-3-majalis.1643/post-5849160) from more than a year ago.
Apologies if I've offended you with any of my posts, but yeah, not entirely sure of any other reason for it seeming as though I'm possibly being ignored.
