There's your issue. A member of the writing team his explicitly said it won't happen and you're still trying to wishful think your way around it
Last word syndrome.

"I'm less attached to the character getting pregnancy content and more concerned that other characters, or future characters won't get pregnancy content in a smut game because one of the writers isn't willing to do it for one reason or another."

Anyways. Back on topic; more customization options being shown in the dynamic bust image for Steele. Horns, hair, dicks, clothing, weapons etc.

How am I coping?
buddy, i gave you an explanation as to why things are the way that they are and your response included "i refuse to acknowledge part of that reasoning". before i even started typing, you were given many other explanations. you started this conversation by trying to turn a hard no into a yes.

Finally; how does giving birth change the personality of the character? It's called character development.
i'll reiterate some of my explanation since your reading comprehension failed you again: it's character development in a direction that Savin does not want. a character getting stabbed could be character development. something horrible can happen to a character's significant other and it'll be character development. don't try and justify character development for the sake of character development.

Isn't there a dream Steele has
you mean a fantasy about something that is unrealistic in context? see also

If that is actually the reason he gives for why he doesn't like pregnancy content then it sounds more like he's hung up about a mistake HE made and is looking for a place to put blame. "I don't like writing in villains because this one time I wrote a villain that ruined a protagonist I liked" My guy, YOU wrote the character(s) that way.
are you saying that Savin made a mistake, Savin then blames himself for that mistake, and as a result Savin has decided to... not make that mistake again. and that's a bad thing.

Anyways. Back on topic; more customization options being shown in the dynamic bust image for Steele. Horns, hair, dicks, clothing, weapons etc.
this has been brought up many times and unfortunately involves an astronomical amount of work due to how customizable characters are.

Cute strawman. Try reading why that doesn't make sense first before you respond to me. Again, complete lack of any reading comprehension.

No I started this conversation by challenging an idea a writer had. It was your own hiveminded community that decided it was set in stone for one reason or another and got triggered when someone asked a simple question that really only needed an answer from the writer. "I'll save you, my queen!" you all rushed fervently to shout! Such gallant heroes to defend a fully grown adult over the internet...

it's character development in a direction that Savin does not want. a character getting stabbed could be character development.

False equivalence fallacy. A stabbing is a straight forward plot device that rarely has any middle ground or room for change. Childbirth, especially within a fantasy setting like CoC, is not. Yes, you could say "I don't like my characters getting stabbed" because obviously that would kill them / wound them in most cases. But how someone reacts to child rearing is up to the writer to mold into something he deems appropriate. Even getting stabbed within the context of these fantasy settings like CoC could be written away using potion or magic logic. I didn't accept the line of reasoning that one thing that happened to one character barred an entire concept because I would expect better from a writer that has been writing non stop for almost the last decade. One would assume that a sex writer could write the logical conclusion to sex without it breaking the characters he forged.

you mean a fantasy about something that is unrealistic in context?

Nothing about any of these games is realistic, even within the contexts of the setting given every scientific hurdle is ignored. It's not even narratively realistic. Why is a mining company on a waste planet? Why is a fox woman having sex with someone she just met? How is everyone producing all this biomass without contracting any kind of cancer?
If you want to ignore all the other pieces of context that don't make sense to do something fun, then I don't see why you can't do the same here. It sounds like an artificial wall you have erected because of something someone has said.

are you saying that Savin made a mistake, Savin then blames himself for that mistake, and as a result Savin has decided to... not make that mistake again.

The mistake was the writing, not the concept. You're struggling really hard to use mental gymnastics in order to not acknowledge that someone made a writing mistake. He's not blaming himself, he's blaming a concept and has thus barred the concept in future characters as a knee-jerk reaction. None of this even matters at this point however as Savin has already said he won't do it even with any help. Which I would have been willing to do, BTW. I've written a bit of smut in my own time https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14317670/1/Soldier. Writing used to be my passion when I was growing up, but adulthood is realizing that writing doesn't pay as much as your English teacher from high school would make you believe.

this has been brought up many times and unfortunately involves an astronomical amount of work due to how customizable characters are.

Just use generic objects instead of being specific. Make short, medium and long hair all have the same preset for each length. Make every beard at any length look the same. Make jackets, suits, shirts and underwear all look the same for each archetype of clothing. Make horns all look the same. Basically, just use the preset icons used in the game menu and make that a template for the bust image. It would be better than what we have and from what I've seen in my previous runs + the one I'm on right now, it doesn't seem like it would take a whole lot of work.

At least on my end I was just pointing out that Savin hates pregnancy content and so wouldn't wanna write it even if you offered help. Now, I personally love pregnancy and shortstacks so he and I are definitely on different wavelengths to begin with. He's entitled to that of course. However, you are right that people here tend to simp for writers to an unreasonable degree and in my opinion you kind of have to walk on eggshells here as a result. Also, I'm just gonna say it as I've felt it for a long time. I think the hang ups that people like Savin and the Observer have about stuff that some of the community did back in the CoC1 days are very weird and immature. It feels pointlessly spiteful and like tilting at windmills. That's all I'll say, I'm bowing out now.
