I have grave news for you, that project along with most of Will's ZhengShi projects are indefinitely shelved.
Wait so this "professional" and paid team who rely on contributions from other writers to help build this game, don't have a contingency if a writer has to dip for whatever reason? Like not even a pro active measure like the writer has to have x amount of the work done/outlined, or that the team finishes the rest of it, even in a half ass manner.

They just leave that shit in the game, unfinished and have it act as a hole that's never going to be filled?

correct, I mean just look at Hand So and its completely unfinished content.

Oh it's much worse than that. Apparently a huge chunk of William's content is ready to be shipped in one huge update, but for some reason its implementation has been vetoed by other writers/developers of the TiTS team and is now indefinitely shelved.

I like Nonesuch and his work; but transferring content earmarked for Hand So into another game because the ship mechanic is taking too long to be implemented in TiTS, only for that game to be put on a indefinite hiatus and the ship mechanic to be added in TiTS is a pretty big fumble. Now we have two unfinished AI dominatrices in two different games.

Why ?
The writing was too good ?

Hell if I know. I could say they're prioritizing content for Phaedra II but the content drought we're experiencing for the last few months pretty much disproves that. I could say they just don't like William getting his content in, but the trickle of Goblin Pirate scenes we're getting disproves that too. Maybe the project leads think it will be best if the content is doled out slowly? But if that's the case, we'll see a few bits of content for Roo, Doc Bianca, and the planned Jumper Crewmate whose name escapes me mixed with the updates, so no dice for that either.

Another theory is William hit a writing slump and the rest of the team thinks his content is not up to par to his previous works, so they sent it back to him for revisions. No proof of this whatsoever except for William going on a long period with no content to show.

William publishes his writing docs on his patreon, I've read through a bit of his doc for Vanika + the operations + the jumper quarters. It's pretty good imo, I didn't notice anything obviously different compared to his previous writing. And while there were some comments on the doc by nonesuch that felt strangely passive aggressive, I didn't see anybody pointing out any issues on a fundamental level that would cause the projec tto be scrapped. So idk what their problem with it is.

What did nonesuch say?
Some of the critiques he left, while more or less fair, felt a little aggressive in the way he expressed them. I fully admit this could be because I am an outsider and don't know what the relationship they have is. I'll attach a few screenshots.

Eh, I dunno. Upon a second read, I may have jumped to conclusions a little too quickly. I fully admit I'm biased toward William's side, since afaik he worked on this project for a while, and was only told *after* it was ready for implementation that it would not be added to the game.

Ok so I haven't played it in a long long time, and apparently you now start in a location which offers a free STD cure and 5000 credits right away? The hell?

Well the new area is supposed to serve as a tutorial, as for the STD immunity thing I believe it is supposed to an opt out thing if you don't want to deal with that sort of content, I know I don't want to, it sounds funny but seems like it'd be annoying to deal with, I know this probably isn't a thing but I wonder if NPCs react to them?

Personally I think it makes quite sense.

1) Pirates absolutely attack goverment people (doesn't Black Void pretty much mess around on Myrellion in their base?) and the first thing that happens to you is getting jumped on Zheng Shi even if you try faking as a pirate (unless you intentionally piss them off them the Korgonne wisely decides to not piss you off)

2) seems bit iffy i do kind of agree with nonesuch. but doesn't Black Void pretty much have entire black site research stuff? doesn't seem unlikely for Sophora to be pretty much redacted biologically since she seems to be rather influent, or a complete utter genetic mess (especially since she does have some rather odd quirks)

3) You literally have the option to get rid of her on first encounter, the reasoning of letting her just leave and live is because Captain Steele is curious and wants to fuck around (literally) and find out, Kind Steele can outright try to kill her when Sophora beats and abuses them, but doesn't because kind while she gets the memo that she WILL die if she shows her face again.

What's the issue? yes i do agree some things of Sophora were bit too wild but fuck the entire game is literally "unexplored wacky and crazy planets with crazy people" I think it they absolutely screwed over Will, especially since it was literally all finished and only then they went "nuh uh, this is no bueno!"

The docs that can cure you kinda react but mainly Bianca has the most reactions, and she reacts bit differently depending on the Std (basicaly getting more concerned for specific ones like the Furpies one)

5,000 is pretty much lunch money lol, you can buy almost nothing decent with that (outside of maybe Lion-Os and Sylvanol for the wings and musky pheromones) and maybe buying Reaha's contract.

STD immunity is basicaly to turn off the chance of random TF STDs but they kinda rarely happen anyway and they do help increase Bianca's affinity so eh.

Kinda weird than that 2 starting traits deal with reducing money by 250 or increasing it by 2000.

Can people still send them characters and encounters to add to the game, or do they only add things suggested by certain writers or their own group?
