- Why would Sera need an expansion? You can't have infinite growth in a finite system. :/
You could grow her out in different directions. It'd be interesting (although I understand 100% why it won't happen) if there were a way to properly befriend her and break through the dom shell without enslaving her and pumping her full of babies. But yes, this is indeed the inherent problem with games like this; all that would have to be written and that requires both motivation and time.
As for Saendra, whenever Savin finds time. I'm betting 2021 or 2022. Or maybe he's already gotten something up his sleeve.
I remember seeing art with the blog posts of possible future directions well over a year ago. Would be interesting to see those returned to. But yeah I'm not super rushed with that, just another example.
- Penny's stuff was likely kept so because it would suck if you lost access to it, and only got a few new scenes in the bargain. Rather see some threesome options with her...
That wasn't considered a problem in CoC - for instance, if you corrupted Amily you got different scenes than regular Amily would get, for instance. Bimbo jojo wouldn't have the normal jojo scenes, either. And there were things that could actually permanently lock out places; like fucking around with Kelt would get you banned from Whitney's farm. The changed characters were treated almost like completely different entities, and I think they were better off for it because they were instead given
unique content instead of just a handful of boilerplate lines thrown on the end of the original text. I wouldn't mind if there were more new scenes written up for them, but the problem is they're still 90% the same as before in the end in TiTS.
Then of course there's the ones like Ember in CoC that showed a ton of promise but just never got completed... That still disappoints me. I can see a few characters heading the same general direction here.

Oh, yeah, the
game mechanics are reward enough. /s
Not really what I meant. I meant additional pages of content; I like the character.
- Brandy? Yeah, her author isn't writting for TiTS anymore.
A shame. I'd have mentioned BESS/BEN as well but I knew full well that that writer wasn't coming back.
- That one, I have no idea.
Refering to the lack of source code. Now it's been about three and a half months since the last source code drop (more than the quarter year of two weeks or so ago) and still no changes.
I think they really just don't care about it. I hate to come to that conclusion, but it sure feels that way more and more often now. Used to be the source was automatically pushed on public releases but apparently no one's had the time in the entire past year (actually longer than that, I think) to re-automate a git push.
Basically, you want MOAR and DEEPER stuff. I feel you.
Yes, exactly. Instead of (or in addition to) adding new people/places, I'd like to see the existing ones expanded upon.
Also I would like source code.
Now about TiTs gripes:
I feel like the story is not moving.
I would like to add this to my list of qualms, paradoxically, at the same time as the lack of development of existing characters.
Actually it might not be completely paradoxical; instead of continuing to make side-planets and add new side-characters they could focus on storyline planets and enhancing the old characters for a few months.
Why do you want to keep a crew member for which no new content may ever come down the pipeline for?
Because Bess is one of my favorite things in the game and I still hope for a second coming.
