I might have just missed it or something, but if not, what about a quest revolving around Reaha's family? Reaha worries about Mia undergoing the treatment, and she could ask Steele for help.

I was originally going to write a whole thing about Reaha's family, then Fen changed the lore about how the Treatment is enforced and I couldn't be bothered anymore. Lost all its dramatic tension. ¯\(ツ)/¯

If someone was particularly interested, some kind of undercover-cop style questline could be fun too.

While I do think that would be COOL, the problem with BBB is that there is nothing illegal going on there. It's kind of a miserable, heartless place for some of the gals working there but at the end of the day that business of Beth's is entirely above board.

It's like Adjatha for a long time kept assumed there was supposed to be some conspiracy around Caver Catering on Tarkus, too, because the game makes a point of showing how heartless and shitty it is. But... no, it's just a heartless shitty corpo establishment. Welcome to the future.

Maybe the final bit at the end might be illegal seeing as you end up permanently sold to a pirate, maybe a misleading contract that kind of thing

Or there could be other illegal stuff going on you have to be undercover to investigate?

I have a question. When we go in Uveto, and not sure an other give the proposition but when we talk Synphia she tell she have a old sister on the rush. We not see many slyveren on the game or we just fight her and my question is is possible we encounter Iphedra and eventually romance her. I hadn't see many Slyveren lover and better, a potential crew member if it's possible. that's be great in a future I think, the harem on Dhall and slavager slyveren on Zheng chi and battle ship is the only one we truly interact with. that's why i demand if it's possible. Or maybe an other slyveren we encounter and help to become a crew member and/or a mate. Or if we can have our slyveren harem like harem cat in coc2 i'm not complain and relly happy to see that^^. Sorry i like that's sneak women and dragon^^.

In the end i hope see our contribution on the rush with TF Frostwyrm in action like people use it and reconize us for the discovery or use it on our companion if she like it just too see the result^^ like huskar treat with anno or hellbound with Syrie or amazone tranform with Reaha.

 

[Skunkupine]

I doubt Iphedra would be interested in being in Steele's crew - she's doing well for herself and wants to get her own pile of money. It would be more likely to get the Star Viper Pilot to join your crew - she doesn't have much going for her, and she might just assume things would be better with Steele after a few defeats. (NOTE: that's just my spitballing; check with her author to get any real data).

 

[Dude_with_bad_english]

I'd love the opportunity to capture one of the Bored Jumpers or Slyveren Slavebreakers from Zheng Shi. Or both. And then break them into proper pleasure slaves. For personal use, of course.

Or if we can have our slyveren harem like harem cat in coc2

What about creating a harem of captives from the pirate gangs on Zheng Shi. One from each of the four. And since they are very bad-bad boys and girls this will be a free for all (well almost) training. Whatever it takes: forced medication and drugs, TFs usage for body modification, VR programming and brainwashing, "size queen" training, disciplinary chastity and denial, spanking, whipping, electrocuting etc. All for help them to become better self, a good boys and girls.

In general, more content for Hard Steele. Truth be told we could use a lot more of this.

 

[Viriathus]

On tarkus I was very interested in the tarkus travel agency when I first visited, getting a free membership by posing lewdly I was expecting it to slowly become a model to pornstar transition and was disappointed when that was it

Perhaps some more content around that? Becoming and extranet por star

 

[Terra_Lupis]

Been inspired the picture used for the Birthday Doodles post (13/04/2024). Could we have an April Fool's Day event where a interstellar cruise liner is taken over by rubber dolls that look like exagerated caricatures of NPC's and (potential) crew mates. They act in combat like Galotians, so they can't be taken down by brute force. By searching the ship/dungeon, the PC finds that the Entertainment Director came up with the idea for a rubber doll show to draw in a crowd and is genuinely surprised to find out that their dolls that went rogue actually resembled (to some degree) real people. The ship could then be encountered from time to time to show off new dolls/ show or to even give the PC and their crew a free holiday and optional orgy space.

 

[FuHyBi69]

Something that has bugged me for awhile has been the hard-light gear/armor/undergarments. Now that chameleon silk can be customized color wise, it would make sense for hard-light to as well correct? As well as adding possibly customization to the hard-light strap-on capable lower undergarments (i.e size of the projection), to allow more access to different scenes for players? Also always thought the anti-grav underwear should be possible to have the strap-on upgrade as well, just a thought.

 

[Sidrake]

For me, the idea for slyveren and jumper is really good except the part hard. but convert pirate to become companion is really good for the rest for my idea. Well I think that for slyveren because I like it and more because there race are completly counter by Galotian, we learn by Synphia, the goo race try many time too sabotage Slyveren race effort for devellopment and the Slyveren try too survive even that's tell turn slavager or criminal I think. They can see with Steele a possibility to solve a part of the probem or up their situation, that's why is interesting to up that idea. Plus, the jumper are the sterilize virus, a quest on that too explain the situation is not bad idea too. well I think. That's a possibility to up the background and see more of the problem with them and a really good story, plus, that the possibility too implemant a Slyveren TF, like Frostwyrm for example, and opportunity too have other crew is really like it I think.

 

[Azrael1]

I had a similar idea a while back, the only difference was that instead of just the slyveren and jumper, I had the idea where you can get a crew mate from the corana lords, cyberpunks and the rat raider's.

Additionally I had the idea that there could be scenes between these possible crew mates once they join or that once you have a member from each group as part of the crew there could be a scene where you help them get along or something like that?

 

[Zarkrai]

A recruitment event for Salacious Sally and the Slyveren Pirate since they seem like the only Slyveren characters that would be possible to recruit based on their situations.

 

[Azrael1]

I don't know if this has been asked before or if it something that is not to be asked about, but I was curious if they will ever make it where you can get the characters from the dr po quest as crew mates such as the twins.

I had the thought that there could be two variations of getting them as crew mates. The first method is if you get kiro back by buying her from po, following this you can revisit po and buy the other dolls of your choice. The second method occurs if you defeat po to get kiro back, I don't know where you could get them from, but I am thinking of either tavros in the same place you meet reaha, or perhaps tarkus or maybe theres even the option to bring the onto the ship following the defeat of po. depending on the path you take they could have different personalities or you could do something that could help them.

Additional note: By help I mean help them break through some of the brainwashing. Also while they are part of the crew, perhaps there could be unique scenes either with you or other crew mates.

I forgot to mention. So i know that with the dolls from kiros quest such as the twins for example, whatever scene you pick with them will result in changes to the players body as well as increasing taint. So I was thinking, if the dolls can be recruited maybe something there can be a dialogue option that enables or disables changes when doing scenes with them.

Using Hand So as a AI for your ship and a whole sequence of events surrounding it. Creating hardlight body for her which could function withing the ship (like that of Saendra's Valeria, but in hardlight). Her reactions on your crewmembers, special scenes with them and even relationships with them (I'm thinking about Olympia if Hand So could become Sidewinters AI). Maybe you could form a relationship with her yourself and even link her to droids you are using. Maybe even BDSM relationship) And I think that it would nicely play into Phaedra's overall theme with Kiha's AI's if nothing else.

There were plans for Hand So to become your Ship's AI a while back, but Nonesuch has been so busy lately that it's been left on the backburner since forever.

A shame. It would fit perfectly into Phaedra themes.

Yeah, loving femdomme SHODAN would be interesting. But alas.

 

[Veilwolf]

I'm Itching to help Sandra get revenge on Miriam Bragga May be an epic ship fight that lets you Take the Black Rose as a Reward for defeating Miriam and A unique dialog with Sandra After Showing up on Tavros With the Black Rose. A new sexible Prisoner added only if you spared Miriam After taking her ship. I have kinda been itching of something like this for a while. Giving a Unique option while piloting the Black Rose making Space fights are optional as other spacers piss themselves in fear of the infamous dreadnaught.

Saendra feels like another character sadly left to rot.

Saendra feels like another character sadly left to rot.

She does, after her "Fools rush in" quest her content hits a brick wall, and it really feels like more was supposed to be added. But I guess Savin moved on from her considering there hasn't been any additional content for her since.

Savin is a busy guy, so it makes sense. He's got a ton going on in CoC2, so I frankly don't think most stuff in TiTs is a primary concern of his. I might be wrong on that front since I don't know the guy or have ever really communicated with him outside of brief interactions on the forum, but I couldn't really blame him for prioritizing his own game over TiTs if it came down to it. Generally speaking, this game hasn't really moved a lot in most cases since Fenoxo stepped back from the project, which makes sense since it was his game at the end of the day. Frankly most 'indie' games would've died had they lost their lead head behind the project, so while it does at times feel like the game is on LS, it's at least still seeing updates to side content. Then again, I'm sure some particularly disgruntled people in the fanbase would argue it's only being kept on LS for the sake of the Patreon, which I know for a fact is a sentiment that's heavily shared on F95 (Then again, take anything on F95 with a grain of salt) but I know nothing about the BTS of the game and its development team, so who can really say.

 

[Cerneu]

I really liked Overqueen Mel’Ysolte design and will keep hoping to see more of her someday in the future.

 

[Esti]

Fenoxo stepped back from the project

Can you eleborate on this? It's the first time I hear about Fen stepping back from TiTs. How? Why?

 

[Alliebutt]

Can you eleborate on this? It's the first time I hear about Fen stepping back from TiTs. How? Why?

Pretty sure it happened ages ago at this point, and it is exactly as I say it is. It seems like Savin is the front runner for TiTs at this point, and months ago he posted about the main story progress still taking a while longer. To my knowledge, which take it with a grain of salt since I don't frequent the forums as much as I used to, let alone the Discord at all, there's been little to nothing more said about it since.

 

[TheShepard256]

Can you eleborate on this? It's the first time I hear about Fen stepping back from TiTs. How? Why?

Fenoxo got burnt out on writing smut a while ago, stepped back to a more directorial role, and pretty much appointed Savin as his replacement as lead writer. He's recently gotten back into writing smut (e.g. the gabilani pirate), but not to the same degree as his previous work.
Speaking of Savin:

He's actually been working on the finale for Saendra's questline, and yes, a showdown with Bragga is part of that. It's mostly complete last I heard, but the upcoming main story train dungeon on Phaedra took priority for a while - I think that's pretty much done writing-wise, so he should finish SaendraQuest3 soon.

I'm moooooost of the way done with Saendra's quest, which is the last big non-plot-expansion I have planned for TiTS. I don't work a lot on TiTS these days, but it's my focus when I do.

It seems like Savin is the front runner for TiTs at this point

I've been Mister Get Out and Push Uphill to Get the Game Finished, but no.

Fen's still very much here, he just doesn't do (much) writing anymore. He's still doing code stuff for the game every week.

I'm by no means a game dev, and know absolutely nothing about coding. But would it be wrong to assume that the majority of the brunt of the work on actually finishing the game at this point, is writing on the main story and the bigger side content quests? Sure coding is obviously as important in terms of building the game into a well... Game, but isn't the main thing that has halted the main story since the engine switch been the writing itself? Coding still requires the writing to be done, in order to turn it into gameplay after all? My impression of the situation around the lack of main story content, has been that there weren't enough people working on the writing on the main story, at least based on a post you made quite a while back that implied that there were only one person at the time working on the writing.

I'll be the first to admit that I very well could've interpreted that post incorrectly, but it was the vibe I got from it back when I originally read it. Hence why I might've misunderstood Fen's role in active development, since I assumed he used to primarily work on writing the main story in the same way you do for CoC2, which made it a logical conclusion that the main story development has slowed to a crawl as a result of him stepping back from writing. If I've completely misunderstood the situation, then I obviously apologize for that since it was never my intention to misrepresent what was happening behind the scenes, since I only had the information I've been able to glean from previous posts here and the update page to base my assumption on.

I suppose the good news of putting it off for so long is the rewards are likely to be relevant in the late/end game.

Is repairing the Broken Psi-Amp is still planned, (a small expansion)?

Sort of correct. And that workload is basically all on me. :/

Desperately wish we had more staff writers.

but isn't the main thing that has halted the main story since the engine switch been the writing itself?

Well, the next segment of the MSQ has been done writing-wise since November and has been held up in code, so in this case, no. That's an unusual case, though, usually when anything important gets written it gets chunked out into code pretty darn quick.

since I assumed he used to primarily work on writing the main story in the same way you do for CoC2, which made it a logical conclusion that the main story development has slowed to a crawl as a result of him stepping back from writing.

In terms of the MSQ, Fen wrote:
-The game's intro
-The Cuz encounter on Mhen'ga
-The Cuz encounter on Tarkus, after Stellar Tether, plus Kaska (I did the rest of that quest)
-Cuz's bits and the Nyrena Princess for MyrellionQuest (I did the rest of that quest)
-Cuz's bits for Zheng Shi (Will and I wrote the Shock Hopper and stuff). ZS was a great project, lots of cooperation.
-Feruze's encounter on the skyway on Dhaal. I wrote the party quest and the dungeon (with a lot of help from outside writers)

The upcoming MSQ on Phaedra is all me from the narrative side, with a lot of help from Will and other community writers to backfill the sex scenes.

So... no, not really. I took over writing for Cuz on Dhaal, but I've lead all the MSQ dungeons since Tarkus except for Zheng Shi which I'd credit to the whole team more or less equally.

I suppose the good news of putting it off for so long is the rewards are likely to be relevant in the late/end game.

Probably not, honestly. While I don't touch any mechanical stuff for TiTS anymore (year like 10 of asking Fen to provide documentation on the combat systems for writers, ree) there's nothing actually gating the quest after Fools Rush In other than it just.... existing. It'd be weird if a level... 6?... quest lead directly into a level 12 quest lol. So I imagine it'll be aimed at like level 7-8 maybe. Whatever's FRI's level + 1.

Is repairing the Broken Psi-Amp is still planned, (a small expansion)?

It'd be cool if it was but it probably won't be written by me. Anybody's welcome to pick it up.
