Well, my point is valid then - shame mechanic is redundant addition for this game. As it won't be used for anything (for example, exhibitionism quirk development).

So it's quite good visual novel in X-men universe, but people should have very restrained expectations regarding "porn" content (at least for now).
I think, me being unable to stop comparing two games (this one and it's inspiration) does not allow me to fully enjoy this one. I hope that there will be a possibility of more "exciting" developments in porn part of the game (at least threesome scenes in polyamory route).
Ron did say the Shame mechanic will come in handy when asking Love Interests to wear skimpy outfits in more private settings like late-night skinny dipping or the upcoming lakehouse area.

In any case, Ron included a file people can use to disable the Shame Limit entirely, so there's that option too.

If it will be used in this way - it doesn't need private/public separation - as it will be used for private situations only. Though it would be a step up.

After removing shame limit with a "cheat" and playing arroung with appearance - does it have any impact on reactions of other characters? Some new dialogues?

It feels a little incongruous that with what they've said about the never ending sexual revolution of earth 69 that they would feel any shame about dressing skimpy at the pool during the day. But that's also based on going to the beach and seeing the swim suits your average collegiate academic achiever wears. I guess at the end of the day shame is highly subjective.

Will doing a visual-only switch satisfy the people asking/wishing for pregnancy content though? Because I'd imagine those who are into that would want the game to reflect pregnancies in the story and dialogue itself.

Plus visual-only pregnancies with no impact on the story seems kind of half-assed; maybe I'm wrong but perhaps the effort it would take to do this would be better served full-assing other parts of the game.
It's either a switch or a pretty short series of events/dialogues very, very, very far in the game (and development time). I can't imagine any other options. So it's either something clear and accessible at any time, like a switch, or something hypothetical, at an unknown time.

I think the latter is what the team is leaning towards; pregnancy content in Chapter 6 which is described as a bonus chapter that doesn't have a fixed timeline.

Ooh boy half of these aren't fun questions.

Nope. You can headpat outside of snu snu.

I can't believe none of you are commenting on this being THE line.

which psychologically puts you in the role of the “saviour” (hi Boots).
Guilty as charged.

We can and will.

how would Gambit fit on the continuity this game takes place?
Just because he went through with the arranged marriage doesn't mean he wouldn't adventure and do mercenary work. He is notoriously irresponsible even when in a committed relationship.

Preggo stuff will definitely be a choice thing if we ever touch that road. I'm just happy the community is so alive with passion for what comes next.
Pregnancy will never be forced and even the "quirk" of breeding kink will be optional.

Theres no way pregnant stuff will actually show up before the actual end of the game.

Remember, all of these girls are part of the Xmen, the group with the highest casualty rate in Marvel, and things are about to become very grim in the upcoming years for Null and friends.

This is a good reason for why we won't be doing it until Chapter 6. Even after Krakoa, not everyone was brought back.

Boots promised an uncensored mutant massacre and i will hold him to that, thats THE coming of age story for the X-men.
And we're not going to be edgy about it. A lot of people died. We're not gonna hide from that.

Australian phase was one of my favorites of all time.
We held a poll and a surprisingly large amount of people said they were cool with being ripped from the mansion sandbox to be in Australia for a few seasons or a chapter.

It's funny because I think throwing them into a time wormhole as a solution if they ever did get pregnant would just play into the humor of just how chaotic comic books can be.
This would be silly, but too silly for us.

Kind of a big disappointment.
I'll note that girls will wear skimpier clothes in public. Just don't expect to lead them on a leash nude through the quad or fucking them in front of the entire student body.

I'd say everyone thinking too much about the details. A simple Turn ON/Turn OFF switch for visuals without any impact on the narrative, and that's it. Just cosmetic effect without need to build a whole "building a family etc" part of the game.
A simple visual toggle would be incredibly boring.

I also was talking about how much they are willing to show in public.
I guess, this game tries to be more realistic take compared to it's inspiration.
So I just feel that shame mechanic is useless in general (especially as it adds "hard cap", if I understood correctly some of the comments in here)
The thing is that the shame system is still in development. If it feels incomplete, that's because it is.

Before anyone asks "Why do you have an incomplete feature?" It's future proofing. Building on it incrementally is safer than dropping an entire complex system in one update.

As it won't be used for anything (for example, exhibitionism quirk development).
No member of the dev team has made this claim. Please do not take community discussion as confirmation of production direction.

As I have been quoted in this discussion before I will take the time to say that yes, the shame mechanic will be used for exhibitionism. Though not in the way that Oni did it.

I think, me being unable to stop comparing two games (this one and it's inspiration) does not allow me to fully enjoy this one.
If your enjoyment of this game is dependent on its shared history of Rogue Like Evolution then I unfortunately have to inform you that this game is not for you.

I've said this more than once. We were inspired by Oni's work, but in the loosest of terms. We do not wish to make RLE 2 or RLE with a narrative. Just because RLE does something that doesn't mean we are going to jump to add it into the game.

Oni has added more story but that's mostly justification as to why a character is in the game. That's not me throwing shade, that's just reality. If you want a sandbox where you can have wild porn parody sex adventures then play RLE.

If you want a relationship simulator with some lifesim elements set within the X-Men universe then this is the game for you.

Our game does contain porn. There is sex. Plenty of it. A variety of it. We just approach sex in a realistic manner. You will be able to dick down girls in a mating press causing them to become cock drunk sweaty messes with makeup smearing... Just not within the first 5 minutes of meeting them.

at least threesome scenes in polyamory route
Group sex has been confirmed more than once, it's been previewed already, and has been on the roadmap for ages.

Good, i dont want it in because of edgy reasons, but because it was a very real thing that shook the team to its core and left long lasting repercusions for many characters, specially Warren.

I can't believe none of you are commenting on this being THE line.
I didnt feel the need to bring it up! i assumed everyone would be up to speed with how often we post that page in particular.

Oooh so he's still in the guild and married to Bella donna in this continuity? I hope if we meet him in the game he sees rogue and bro fists us for having a good taste in landing a hottie lol.

Nice, I guess best option will be to replay this at the release of 1.0

As I have been quoted in this discussion before I will take the time to say that yes, the shame mechanic will be used for exhibitionism. Though not in the way that Oni did it.
So proper shame mechanics with potential exhibitionism quirk (in whatever form it will be) will be retrospectively added into chapter 1 after 1.0 release already (at least based on roadmap for 0.9 and 1.0)?

Our game does contain porn. There is sex. Plenty of it. A variety of it. We just approach sex in a realistic manner. You will be able to dick down girls in a mating press causing them to become cock drunk sweaty messes with makeup smearing... Just not within the first 5 minutes of meeting them.
I would try argue there (in regards of variety), but again - last version I played is "0.7"
I will refrain from more comments regarding that until trying 1.0 version

Yes, please! I want to kick some Reavers asses, rip that stupid tread from Bonebreaker's cart and shove down his throat.
