I was being kinda sarcastic in a funny way. Seeing only Shani being MC exclusive is pretty boring tbh, wheres the thrill.
Thats why i even posted in a first place, got little annoyed ngl
Naturally, sarcasm is usually supposed to be funny. I would say the thrill would be in her killing the potential rapists before they get to violate her. Also, considering how the story has played out so far, it seems that Shani definitely has a thing for her father. See also seems quite shy emotionally speaking, so that it would seem unlikely that she would want to lose her virginity to a complete stranger. Sadly you will always find people who will complain about anything or who will demand their fetishes being included.
It would indeed fit perfectly into the world the game is set in, but considering the rest of the plot it would seem unlikely to me as anything but a game over scene.
Yes, I've oft stated I'm playing Shani's upcoming content because I want to see what the zone is all about and because it's an important moment in the character's arc. My hope has always been that MC and Shani can team up again after the trials because their (brief) adventures in the desert were a really fun part of the early game.Shame
On a more serious note though, most of the time the POV switch is also warranted by narrative reasons. One notable upcoming example is the Zone, where Shani will be on her own.
Z will be nowhere close, so the only way to experience it is through Shani's eyes, if you choose to do so.
If you don't, there's a strong possibility that you'll get a synopsis of what happened there upon her return but not a step-by-step rundown.
This unfortunately means that certain updates will feel shorter for players that chose to not follow Shani around.
Another potential side-effect of it is, it's possible that Shani will be called to make some decisions in certain occasions so if you choose to not follow her, she will make those decisions on her own.
Of course this would be impacted by how Z tutored Shani up to that point so it will not be out of complete control of the player, but still something unable to control at that specific moment.
All in all, Shani will not become the centerpiece of DS in terms of "being the MC", it's still and will be Z's adventures by and large.
I fully understand the immersion breaking, but it's something that we feel adds to the game and Shani's journey was always planned to be sort of -if not integral- closely linked to the overall story.
It will probably be strange D by choice and strange V by force. The game seems to want Shani and the Queen to be an item, so I'll bet Shani will be just as horny for raider girls as the MC is. To me it doesn't matter if it's D or V; I don't want either one sniffing around my girl. I prefer not to share my main love interest, but I'm sure players will have a good bit of choice.
Forcing their views? Only weak minds can have views forced on them, but I only see people here talking about things they like and don't like in games. That's kind of the point of a gaming forum. The devs are under no obligation to do anything other than what they want with their game. If players like it, they support the project, if they don't they move on to something else. It's not a crime to muse about things you'd like to see or not see in a story. You may not like hearing other people's opinions on the game, but that doesn't mean those opinions are being forced onto anyone.
Yeah, don't see any NTR tag on this one, and I really don't expect to see it, nor a rape tag. But we do already know there is avoidable sharing from the Market Guy's visit. If Shani is gonna get jiggy with the Queen, I do expect we will be able to choose the outcome. Shani is loyal to her family #1, the Queen #2, and she has the smartz & skillz to not get taken advantage of...If you dont like seeing your favorite daddys little princess Shani getting violated and defiled in all possible holes by stranger bandits and non strangers, then its probably not a game for you
Thank you for your truism captain obvious, i guess next you are gonna say: "people can either play games or not"
Like I said, all marginal stuff in this game so far has been optional... I don't expect it to change, and if it does, I'll pull my money. I don't think it will though... So far this game has been really upfront, I can't see it turning into something else without a mass revolt... I love this game as is and am in the dt's waiting for the next release!
There is already rape in the game. In the very first scene. The MC can rape the asian raider chick after killing one of her peeps. But it's normal in this fictional world and I've no problem with that. Yet we have to call a spade a spade.
Angelina Jolie from the first movies is the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of Tomb Raider? Not the games? Anyway it was just an analogy to a female protag action game
I can if it will help you to lighten up.
I'm simply responding to your own terse statement. I just don't see a lot of evidence of this thread being overrun with these phantom posters losing it, talking shit @ devs, etc. Especially not in the past page or so before your post. Every thread has a few knuckleheads sure, but here it's mostly a lot of people saying I like this or I don't like this. I will agree with you that people who don't like the game stop playing. Problem solved. I think any of us would do that if a game isn't to our liking.
The renders in this game not only look amazing, but I appreciate the fact that they are so different from the standard fare you get on F95. I see the same assets time and time again with other games. Here, the devs take time to make these ladies look unique. Much appreciated!
I think we had a brief chat with her when we visited the market.Maybe I missed seeing her in game before, but damn she looks good. She is in the city?
I personally enjoy a peak into other characters perspectives, maybe it's because I don't really get immersed in anything barring tabletop (and even then I'm playing a character and basing their decisions on who they are not really what I'd do) but I have no problem with the idea of playing as Shani for extended periods. I guess the thing people are really worried about is tainting her purity or something, since playing as her either means less H scenes or Shani isn't your pure waifu.
well not much ppl have problem with playing female MC...i realy enjoyed some of them....but it was normal games and not hot/porn games...
True. Or Skyrim Characters. But then you are more interested in 'being able to make her/him do xyz' (->actions ->game), and not in getting the story told (->VN) (though you can create 'grey areas'/crossovers, but more to that, see below).
Nice to hear. Although I had&have quite some confidence, that this game won't get in trouble with this (MC switch/immersion problems).
