I have been unable to access the Pollen Dance with my female Steele. According to the creator's document, it should activate if the PC completes the Plantation Quest (I did, all the way to meeting Lah in Gastigoth), the PC has sex with Quinn (I did, repeatedly), the PC has genitals (three vaginas in fact), has used all Talk options (on both occasions I visited the village after quest resolution), PQ is fully resolved (Quinn describes how they are trading with Esbeth), and the PC uses Talk again (I try again and again, and the usual talk options come).

Is there anything I am doing wrong, or does it seem like a bug?

What version are you using? There were some bugs in the Pollen Dance in the last public release. The latest backer builds have fixed them.

FYI unless you have a dick you will not be able to participate, only talk about it and spectate.

07.202.

This I know, but I wanted to witness it at least, and perhaps try my hand at Zil pregnancy during the festival.

One of the conditions is to not talk to her for 24 hours. When you talk to her it sets a 24 hour timer that resets if you talk to her within that time.

In all honestly the way that the zill are done doesn't seem right, in all honestly i would have thought that their births would have been egg based.

It doesn't work. I left her alone for the time (about a month) it took me to complete Akane's and Shekka's quests, I came back to her, and still I only get normal talk.

Go through all her talk options. It should unlock the moment you cycle through the last one.

Nope, this doesn't work either. Indeed it seems more and more like a(nother) major bug, even if for the life of me I cannot tell what makes the difference in my playthrough.

After talking through all her talk subjects, return to her after a day and talk again. She should present the topic of the festival to Steele. Also make sure your character has genitals (because the festival mentions them), and has sexed Quinn at least once.

On further checks, it worked at last. Thanks to everybody for the advice. Now I'm more or less up to speed with current content again (except for mating with the Frostwyrm, which I have put aside) and waiting for more.
