Missing mom/Inheratance

[Ormael]

Well but such person would be made into special snowflake..and PC is already special snowflake feeling like almost not real in titsverse like it would be born at moment of game starting.

At least when it come to PC mother (and some extend father) PC is no different than other npc. Like we barely know much about her than she...was somewhere there at the moment of PC birth. Maybe that "taking care off her" was...sending her with uttermost care to Yellow Springs?

 

[Lancer]

The reason why I say a 'slutty' upbringing would be a bad idea is because the PC is kinda implied to be in SCHOOL by the time you choose the upbringings, not the jobs where Junior IS of age by then.
I don't think it'd be a good idea to imply the PC was underaged even by a little when they lose their virginity. One person being a virgin up until they're 18 shouldn't even be a shock even in the TiTS universe. o.o;

Anyways, we're kinda going off topic. >.<

(I assume you already know, but I'm stating it for emphasis) The current mainstream sexual culture in America is one of hook-ups and one night stands, and those who haven't lost their v-card by the end of high school or early college are viewed negatively, as either complete prudes or socially inept. I was greatly surprised that Steele Jr. was set as having no sexual experience at the beginning of TiTS, especially as you can immediately go out and start fucking everything you see into submission, in a universe where sex is almost completely de-stigmatized.

The FBI, in this instance.

I assume you are saying that the FBI would care if underage people have sex together. They don't. The only time the government gets involved is if a person who is underage and one who is of age get together. At least in America and the majority of first world countries, it varies widely throughout the world.

 

[Ormael]

@Lancer Yeah I would agree with you on this point about v-card and teens. Making game meantions that PC is not virgin anymore may be added as casual meantion somewhere at intro. Then I think about whole thing of msg ingame for: You have lost your (...) virginity. Maybe those who want see them are still louder talking than those to give PC option to be virginles at start of the game.

 

[Xeivous]

I'm pretty sure the graphic depiction of minors engaging in sex is the problem the suits usually have. Mere mentions that the PC lost their virginity underaged should be fine.

Really I'd be fine with just having the option to decide my Steele's virginal statuses at the start of the game or failing that, an explanation for how the heir that is very likely to be rather alike to the complete slut that is their megacorp-owning dad is somehow a virgin by the time they've finished school .

 

[Lancer]

No, I'm saying that the FBI cares very much about people that produce what is defined as "child porn" by the United States' very unclear and open-to-interpretation porn censorship laws. Laws which are applied inconsistently to different forms of media on a highly regional basis.

AKA: We should stop talking out this before someone has to report this otherwise pleasant and decently productive thread.

I think that's an unnecessary conclusion to draw. Just mentioning somewhere in the intro that you lost your virginity sometime during school would have no risk at all of drawing the ire of both the government and anyone who would report it.

As Ormael and Xeivous said before I could type this out, giving people an option to keep their v-card or not during their upbringing would be a fine idea.

 

[Ormael]

Given PC start as legal adult it could be handwaved in case of picking option to be non-virgin as effect of really good and mindblowing 18th b-day party xD

 

[Xeivous]

The problem with making the PC older now is that there are plenty of NPCs whose interactions make a lot less sense if they are closer in age. Anno being the first to come to mind.

 

[Ormael]

Well then instead of 20 years ago make it 21/22 years ago? 1-2 years older PC will not interrupt curent written conter to such degree as making PC 5 or more years older.

 

[Noob Salad]

Oh wow I didn't realize Anno was so much older than the PC. Letting the PC start off older and/or not a virgin isn't going to happen though. Not just for the reasons already stated but because it's kind of an effort just to give players this one little point on their special snowflake. And why stop there? Why not give a Prude background where you have a lower max lust? lol, see it just gets out of hand.

Anyway this is actually really interesting. Look up the novel Perfect Chemistry. It describes a relationship between two high school students and has a scene where the girl loses her virginity. I mean yeah it's definitely tasteful and brief, so I guess it's not considered smut, but it's still really vague where the line is drawn. Not to mention a lot of the other characters in the story aren't virgins and had sex near the beginning of high school. Again, this a novel for teen girls written and published in 'MURICA, and is pretty tame compared to the more risque ones out there, again, in the USA.

 

[OnyxDrakkenblade]

I just wanna know why EVERYONE seems to be so damned stuck on age as a metric of sexual experience, the lack thereof, or the appropriateness of such. Literally EVERYONE I know had their first sexual encounter (not necessarily penetration) by the age of 12. Usually long before then. It just seem ridiculous to get all bent about it. I've met 17 year olds that carried themselves with great aplomb and grace. I've also met 60 year olds that couldn't get their heads out of their long asses enough to be able to have a real conversation. Sigh, whatever. *tromps off to her ship to have an orgy with her harem*

 

[Emerald]

... Can we just get back on topic plz? >.<'

 

[Noob Salad]

No one's stuck on anything bro, we all agree that child pornography is bad and that it's normal for people to have sex before the age of consent.

Except me, of course. I believe you should wait until you're 18 before you marry and have consensual sex in the missionary position for the sole purpose of procreation.

Haha. Thanks Capn' I needed that I think I'm letting myself get to serious about silly shit >.>

Yeah, but you're clearly some kinda deviated prevert.

I am so vanilla, tho.

Tell them, B.

@MistyBirb more round number would be 10 but 28/29 y.o. PC - that would indeed givne how all around want to fuck most fo the time sounds silly to make PC still virgin.

 

[OnyxDrakkenblade]

@MistyBirb more round number would be 10 but 28/29 y.o. PC - that would indeed givne how all around want to fuck most fo the time sounds silly to make PC still virgin.

Silly Orm, the most round number is zero. In the long run this dance goes round and round. The only real solution is to make your own headcannon for how the PC lived out their sexual development for your self.

 

[Ormael]

@OnyxDrakkenblade But 8..it's like infinity not only round number... But we can't have PC been 80 y.o. at the start (to have both round and ininity number).

 

[OnyxDrakkenblade]

@Ormael Sure 8 is PRETTY round. But there will be SOME point where it is NOT round because it changes direction . . . TWICE. Nope, zero is in fact the one and only roundest number

 

[Karretch]

@Ormael Sure 8 is PRETTY round. But there will be SOME point where it is NOT round because it changes direction . . . TWICE. Nope, zero is in fact the one and only roundest number

Ah, but it's a continuous, gradual curve that just goes in the opposite direction for half the number. If there was a sharp, literal angle or a second line in there somewhere then it'd be a lesser number. But in fact it has two curves from one line, so it's doubly rounder than zero!

 

[OnyxDrakkenblade]

Nay nay, if you go around the shape paying attention to the vectors of your travel you will in fact SOMEWHERE be going straight, TWICE. A straight line is NOT round, therefore the zero that is NEVER created in a straight direction is "more round" than an eight ever will be

 

[Ormael]

But some 8 looks like two 0 connected so still can be like having double 0 benefits. Unless it's looking more like two tears connected.

Ohh boy poor PC mother fogoten even in her own thread so soon. THou it was made this way to be in limelight for like 5 sec when player reads intro...if s/he reading it at all and not click over fast.

If it's one zero on top of another zero it's not and eight . . . it's two zeros

 

[Karretch]

Gonna stop here, don't want to end up getting this thread locked, but know that you haven't won.

 

[Noob Salad]

Y'all need to take this shit to the PMs.

 

[EmperorG]

You know a thread is derailed when Captain Shitpost is telling you to get a room for your offtopic bantz, honestly it's gotten to the point I forgot what this thread was even about.

 

[OnyxDrakkenblade]

This thread was about Steele's mom not having enough "screentime" in-game. It kind of got shutdown by the reality of writing for the game and devolved into this mess of shitposting. So it's basically a dead thread that's been hijacked for the sake of roundness.

P.S.: I have won if you stop responding.

 

[Ormael]

I do replied on OP subject in my last post. But maybe people overlooked it and still thought I was going on about 0's and 8's. Nahh youwaswrong.gif

So all in all conclusion is: PC mom was truly great npc with Large backstory and even larger plot but due to those both things she was too big to be added in code as it would amke it triple it size. So Devs made decision to make her been forgotten after initial showing of her background and plot

 

[Noob Salad]

It's just been 3 of you arguing semantics though...

P.S.: I have won if you stop responding.

Hey you better stop startin mate.
