Forgot to add the changelog, you can see it now :)
Thank you but I'm disappointed because I was hoping you had a change of heart and added a choice to make Merneith cum instead of leaving her hanging because I was just as disappointed as she was when Zaton started to make her feel good but didn't finish what he started since I am not into that orgasm denial to "leave her craving for more to have her at your mercy" domination bullshit, I just want to make her happy and that implies making her feel good all the way and NOT denying her orgasms, this frustrating outcome deeply disappointed me as I have been looking forward to grow intimate with Merneith for a long time ever since we started bonding and I learned how she was denied genuine affection all her life which inspired me sympathy for her and desire to offer her what she has been missing all her life and this forced choice to dominate her by denying her orgasm and leaving her craving for more without it even being an option made me dislike this scene and has been bugging me ever since I experienced it. ๐
Keep in mind that just because something didn't happen in this scene, that doesn't mean it will never happen. The MC's dominant attitude already became more genuine over time (if you choose to hug her for example). This scene was not about getting the Queen off but to step over yet another red line. You don't know if she would be comfortable or not with what you're proposing.
I did choose to hug her, of course I hugged her when she was crying, but not out of any domination instinct but rather genuine sympathy and affection for her, a human need that she has been denied all of her life, and I do enjoy not treating her as a Queen but as a woman, and I have no need to dominate her to this end, her letting down her guard to be close to me is enough already.
Of course, I did enjoy stepping over protocol to treat her not as the Queen of Zeta but as a woman that I feel sympathy and affection for, that still doesn't justify why stopping midway only to disappoint and frustrate both her and me.
Weather she feels comfortable or not, that's up to her, not to us, she has to be the one to stop us if she dislikes anything we do, because proposing something to her only to withdraw it when she was clearly enjoying it is a plain jerk move which made me feel that I was training her to make her beg for more the next time, which I strongly disliked because I don't feel threatened by women and I don't feel an urge to assert dominance over them to feel secure about my manhood, I enjoy treating women as my equals, I treat Emily as a family member more than a family's slave, I did my best to heal Fairy to restore her free will instead of taking advantage of her broken mind to make her my bitch, therefore it doesn't make sense for my character to dominate Merneith.
But more than anything, I hated it because that was not even my choice as I didn't even have a choice in the matter, it was imposed on me without any other option, which defeats the point of playing a visual novel because it is an interactive story where my input matters and I am not a passive spectator of the creator's whims.
I appreciate all of the choices that you have been giving to involve me into your world and I don't understand why you did NOT involve me in this scene and made me a passive spectator of your whims by not giving me a choice of how to experience it this time.
I was hoping to kiss her at the same time as I was fingering her to bond with her both physically AND emotionally because she doesn't need me only for her physical needs since she has her own harem of slaves to make her cum whenever she wants, what she desperately needs is what she has been denied all her life:
And actually, now that I just launched the game again to take this screenshot above, I replayed the scene which disappointed me to check if my memory of Zaton and Merneith kissing before fingering her was correct and not only it was correct, which strengthens my point that kissing at the same time as fingering her would suit this scene nicely for bonding physically AND emotionally, but there is another detail in this scene that I had forgotten and which defeats your claim above.
You claimed that you made Zaton stop midway because "we don't know if she would be comfortable or not with what we're proposing" which doesn't stand since, I had forgotten it, she actually tried to touch Zaton's dick on her own initiative and Zaton denied her even this much, which is unfair since he fingers her but he denies her reciprocating, and at the same time defeats your justification to make him stop midway "because we don't know if Merneith would be comfortable or not with what we're proposing" since she actually proposed more of her own initiative and you denied her.
Conclusion: No matter how you try to justify this scene, there is no point to it other than training Merneith to be submissive, denying her initiatives for the sake of being in control then leaving her hanging to make her beg for more next time, did I misunderstand anything?
you're partly correct. She is longing for a father figure and has what we can call daddy issues. So when it comes to sexuality, she is interested in what you are doing as the MC. When it comes to emotionally, and even sexually later on, I can promise you that the MC may also grow an emotional connection with her, and not just a dom sub one. But it needs time, as she was at first interested in the MC because of his confident manner, who was not scared by her dominant demeanor.
I figured out that much already and ever since I did understand that she has been denied a father figure and sees me as the one that she wants, I have been thinking of her as one of my daughters ever since already, but more like independent Shani than submissive Ain who I have been struggling to like because I can't stand that she was raised from birth to be "daddy's whore", I mean I wouldn't mind that she grew into a nympho with a daddy complex if that was on her own instead of having been educated and trained to this end without leaving her a choice, which is why I much prefer my relationship with Shani that I trained to become my desert stalker heir while caring for her and that she developed feelings for me on her own until she eventually wanted more from me, I prefer this because she chose it as opposite to Ain who was denied freedom of choice, which is why I have been struggling to appreciate my relationship with her since I imposed it on her without any care for what she wanted, our relationship was not her choice and therefore it means nothing to me and the last thing that I want is to train Merneith as I trained my own daughter to be my sex slave. ๐
I have far more benevolent aspirations for Merneith, just like for everyone actually. ๐
When it comes to emotionally, and even sexually later on, I can promise you that the MC may also grow an emotional connection with her, and not just a dom sub one.
Thank you, this is what I have been hoping for. ๐
So... Are you going to add a choice to give options of how to experience fingering Merneith and let each player choose weather they want to finish what they start, make her cum and leave her happy (and kiss her at the same time would be even better!) or deny her orgasm and leave her hanging, disappointed and frustrated (as you did ๐ผ)? Is there hope for update 0.16d coming soon? Pretty please? ๐
Indeed, I know what you mean, ever since one of my first interactions with her when she treated me like shit and I had to choose to loose my temper and strangle her (which I did not expect at all as I was expecting to put her on her place with words alone! ๐ฒ) or to kiss her hand as she demanded but in a way that she did not expect and made her shiver which I enjoyed very much, I have been enjoying how the tyrannical Queen has been mellowing and trusting to me, thank you for this enjoyable relationship's development. ๐
Still want to claim that you're NOT just an arrogant douchebag? Or a stupid one? Or both?
You want to take creative control over this game, simply so that the story matches your EXACT wants.
You want to dictate how and where the dev describes the game.
And you simply EXPECT that people will listen to your idiotic ramblings.
You are NOT the center of the universe. What you WANT to see is irrelevant to EVERYBODY ON THIS PLANET, except for you.
Being arrogant is claiming things that you can't even back up. Now while I did express some opinions, was there any of my claims that I was not able to explain and justify? Thinking about it, isn't there someone here who has been making claims without actually being able to back them up and therefore can be qualified as arrogant?
Being a douchebag is being disrespectful. Now while I did express some disagreements, was I ever disrespectful to anyone who didn't warrant it? Thinking about it, isn't there someone here who has been speaking only to insult which is disrespectful and therefore can be qualified as a douchebag?
Intelligence insults again, this is growing so repetitive and boring, please talk to a therapist about your intelligence's inferiority complex and seek actual solutions to fix it instead of uselessly boring me.
You are NOT the center of the universe. What you WANT to see is irrelevant to EVERYBODY ON THIS PLANET, except for you.
Are you actually talking to me or to yourself? This is what you claimed and yet not only did you request Zetan for "some girls that you could abuse like Twitch THOT" but you also chimed into a discussion between Zetan and me which didn't concern you in any way and you call me out for being egocentric, are you trying to demonstrate the definition of "hypocrite"? ๐
I did not even suggest anything to Zetan about his game's description beside using Itch's dedicated place for it and only because other people have been commenting about the lack of description and because Zetan himself expressed his uncertainty about how to use Itch's features so I answered to explain them to him, nothing less, nothing more than that. ๐
But that is not your actual issue, is it? You don't actually give a shit to anything I said, you have been replying only because you want some attention, haven't you? You keep comparing yourself to me, calling me out for what you do yourself, claiming that In gave you the rights to do it because I did it first, however you have done nothing like me since I talk only when I actually have something to say and I always explain and justify everything I say, which is why you call my long explanations "lectures" and I don't deny it, whereas you have been speaking while you had actually nothing to say, you have merely been insulting me because I make you feel insecure about your intelligence's inferiority complex, which is why you have been desperately trying in vain to challenge my intelligence while not ever actually backing up anything you claimed, I'm not sure if this is out of masochism because you enjoy being put into your place or if this is out of desperate attempts to win an unwinnable battle which makes me think more and more that you are from the USA as you have been displaying the same foolish arrogance and delusions of superiority which make them start wars that they always lose because of their actual weakness until they always beg for France to come to their rescue into their battlefields just like they did when they first rejected their motherland and had their asses beat by the BUK who was eventually defeated not by themselves but by France, and so it has gone for every war they started since, always starting wars, losing them, then calling France to the rescue who wins them because France is a far older and wiser civilization who has already experienced and overcome many more wars during its thousands of years of existence than the bratty USA ever did during their less than three centuries of existence and therefore french military is far more competent are reputed in the world than the incompetent and laughing-stock USA military who always lose against everyone but you are actually even less intelligent and more arrogant than the USA because you challenge France who is the one who wins all of your wars that you lose so then who are you going to call to your rescue this time? ๐ผ
I don't expect anything from people, I merely share what I have to say then people use my contributions however they want, that's up to them in the end, not to me. ๐
