So I tried it... who is actually the MC? It's certainly not Cyrus...

You seem to be making all the choices for Atoosa, the princess.

The only adult scene in it is the spoiled princess having sex with a slave. After she is verbally abusive to someone who was raped, telling her how good she did pleasing all those guys.

I will never understand why some devs choose a very specific historical era instead of just telling a fantasy story that's loosely inspired by real historical events.
I can't play something like that—as someone with a deep understanding of history, it feels like a violation to me, like watching someone stomp through history like a clumsy butcher. I've also never seen an Iranian/Persian woman who looks like a textbook Northern European with naturally light blond hair and blue eyes. Not to mention all the completely unfitting Daz3D medieval era assets.

Ancient Iran? Shouldn't it look more like Arabian Nights than something out of medieval times?
Finding antiquity era assets that aren't roman is hard I guess.
Just for starters...

If your telling a "historical fiction" about Cyrus, the first thing you need to know is that there was no such place as Iran at that time. It was known as Persia.

Always good to get the facts right.
"Persia" is the Greco -Roman inspired take on the area name "Parsa" which is a region where the ruling dynasty was from. The people called themselves "Ariya". The Empire itself was named after Cyrus's family name I think.

Edit: Achaemenid for the empire name

As a history buff I really have to faceplant reading these comments. Somehow you're not the only one. Persia is an exonym, meaning it's what foreigners called it. Iran is an endonym, meaning it's what the people themselves called it. It's been called Iran or variations of it for thousands of yours. It's like saying ''there's no such thing as Deutschland it was called Germany''.

Always good to get the facts right..

Make it be about some Legendary exploits in the Land of the Aryans and call the protagonist Arynii prince of the two kingdoms.
