My gripes in order from least likely to piss people off to most likely to piss people off. The first one is the fact that I can't make characters with two sets of ears, maybe I want bunny ears and elf ears or cat ears and elf ears, etc... The second one is the fact that Kase and Ben are the only male crew members recruitable I understand that most people on here are guys but maybe I don't want to fuck a dickgirl, the fact that you can't really make friends with any of the characters you are either fucking them or you aren't, maybe I want to be on friendly terms with someone maybe even have crew members that I don't need to seduce to recruit, and my most outrageous claim yet is the game needs more dudes I don't mean dicks I mean individuals who have a penis only it seems like the vast majority of the characters in this game are dickgirls and even some of the "males" such as "Aliss" (which doesn't sound masculine at all) have breasts it is ridiculous. Don't get me wrong I don't hate the game but there are aspects of the game that piss me off.

Before I say this, I want to tell you that I agree with you, there's alot of things in this game that feel like wasted potential and the galaxy feels like it's brimming with characters that don't exactly feel diverse and mostly ratioed in one direction favoring certain people and not really catering to all people. I'd go into saying certain things but because of similar certain people I can't. But yeah you're hitting the nail on the head about most of the game's problems and most people in this "Community" will give you a number of different responses if they don't agree.

1. Write it yourself if you want something different

2. If you can't write it comission it

3. It's not gonna change because the writers write what they want.

4. It doesn't bother me so I don't see why it's a problem for you, just ignore it.

5. You're wrong, there are just as many of these people as there are males and females in this game, and it's a porn game you're suppose to have sex.

Tbh I'd just say shit won't change because the writers are just gonna write what they want, if you really want to speak directly to the writers I'd suggest making a discord account and probably dming them there or probably personal messaging them here on the forum, but like I said probably nothing is gonna happen because writers are gonna write what they want.

Two sets of ears would be a bitch to code. What happens to the pc.ears parser? Does it stay as an amalgam of the two ears, or does it pick? It's tough to say, so only one pair stays

I'm currently comming a dude from B, go check out his post in the event submissions form

I understand that it aggravates you that most of the writing is gynocentric, but that's because the writers are. The end result is that there is something alien about a male with breasts, and alien is the feel that TiTS is supposed to emulate.

If you ask me, moobs=! male with breasts. Even if I have to use A-cups to emulate moobs for Ben and my secondary Steele, which kinda messes with his feminity score.

Nothing alien about Moobs. Plus it's been done in tits before.

If you mean men with natural DD-cups, then human biology disagrees...

Also, I friendzone Azra all the time. And Kase. And the cook girl. I've interacted with plenty of NPCs on a purely platonic level. But I get what you're saying, sex is a pre-requisite for the recruitment of a few crew members (Anno, Shekka, Penny, Amber, etc.), while a fair number of ones that don't still expect it (Mitzi, Celise, Reaha). Many of them don't have whole scenes where you just hang out with nothing sexual going on.

to be fairly honest the people that have DD-cups in the game aren't natural DD-cups, they get them through mods most of the time. and Moobs are gotten through more ways than natural growth like steroid abuse can give men breast, then there are medication, and other street drugs. I doubt someone like Del slowly grew their breast when they got to Candia station

Not really use an array like they do for penises and vaginas

Also my biggest gripes are the fact you can't mod more npcs I mean and I know I will get stoned to death for saying this but there seems to be a lot more npcs that you can give a dick to than remove a dick from, I kind of miss that from CoC where you could go around de-dicking people. Also just more general mods like maybe I want to give Fishianna bigger boobs or make Stella taller or make Ramis actually scratch that Ramis is perfect... point is I miss being able to mod more characters and I also wish you could enable/disable npc to npc sex interactions, I am not saying get rid of them but make it an option to turn them on and off.

I mean, this universe actually has laws regarding nonconsensual modding of others, which is why Lash, Badger, and Beth are criminals. I mean, Beth is also a slaver and sex trafficker, but still.

That's an obvious answer, but since it doesn't involve adding more hermaphrodites into the game I doubt it will get done.
First off, that's a bit harsh dude, try not to be so toxic

Second:

while this may seem like the answer, you won't be able to pick and choose which ears are which, nor where they'd be placed. if you want it, commission or write the TF and, if it's written well enough, it could be added to the game

probably be easier to just have the game say you have 4 ears instead of giving you 4 ears.

Definitely a lack of men, and it is weird that Ramis is like, the only friend character.
We can probably chalk that up to Nonesuch's process vs. the way most of the other TiTS writers go about things.

With most characters you can clearly see that they start from "what sexy thing are they about?" and all the details their content fills in ripple outward from there. All their content assumes you're in their pants because the character was conceived under the assumption that this is how and why you approached them. With many of Nonesuch's characters, especially as he gained more experience, their starting points don't feel quite so blatant and simplistic. When you first meet Ramis the amazon vibe's there but it's her personality that makes the impression. Depending on what you are she can invite you out drinking, tell you to come back when she's more sloshed, challenge you to arm wrestling - right off the bat it's clear that she and her content were conceived differently.

Part of the reason there aren't more guys in the game is simply that most of the writers focus solely on making characters they'd want to boink. If more guy characters with content that allowed for Ramis-style palling around, stuff that isn't necessarily sexual, were to be submitted I think they'd be plenty popular.

That's very nice of you to say, but the initial impetus of writing Ramis was definitely 'I'd love to have a big slamazon who snu snus sissies. How do I make that happen?' Most NPCs in TiTS have to start from the position of something you really want to fuck, because the hardest part of any NPC is the sex scenes and you must have that desire to drive through them. Of course there's better ways of fleshing them out and couching it, but that is the base reason there aren't that many guy characters. All of the writers are gynophiles.

You're definitely right about 'pal' characters being a good way to get males into the game, and I think just having a Garrus or Wrex you can hang with is what a lot of players would like.

They would be. And then the authors would be endlessly inundated with "WHEN CAN I FUCK JOHN HUH??" in their inboxes for literally the rest of the game's lifespan and probably beyond.

okay this is a gripe but also kind of an idea
from a thread i made awhile ago here https://forum.fenoxo.com/threads/does-getting-hit-in-the-balls-hurt-in-the-tits-universe.16104/
there should be... and hear me out,
ball protector accessories

think about it, when your balls can be gigantic, they are also a gigantic weak spot.
i feel like its a huge oversight not including sexy
yet "protective" accessories for balls/peens, and maybe even boobs
(wow bikini armor how radical)

I wasn't suggesting that they -wouldn't- have sex scenes, I'm saying that when writing to (primarily) an audience of gynos including that branch of interactions, one that doesn't solely flow from the assumption that the player wants to fuck them, is how to get them in there and endear them.

What I was getting at is that characters written under the assumption that the player is always desperately horny when they interact with them is the norm, so that's what readers all expect. When characters show up and their content isn't written with an insistent drive toward sex (that's what I meant when I said Nonesuch's stand out; there's less of an obvious leading that spells out "you must fuck this character to progress in any of their content") they stand out from the pack and also don't put off someone who might be curious about them but not necessarily attracted to them.

Then you're missing the point. I don't write dude characters because I don't want to write sex scenes with a dude. Full stop. It's got nothing to do with the audience and everything to do with me not wanting to write that shit.

No offense savin, but you should take a step out of your comfort zone, try something new with your writing, try another subjeact instead of the one you usually write about. You don't know you might find something you never thought you liked Savin.

There's writing outside of your comfort zone and there's writing something you have absolutely no interest in.

The former works, the latter doesn't because you don't like what you're writing.

There has to be the component of interest, of passion, when you write. You're writing as much for yourself, if not more so, as you are writing for others. If there's no interest or passion, you just have words with nothing behind them.
