A question about virginity
Added 2016-05-10 18:02:54 +0000 UTCWell, a question about your character's virginity, not yours. It'd be quite a personal thing to ask on Patreon otherwise!
I'm putting together some virginity-related text for the next release and, while sketching out a set of possible actions, I've realised that there are a huge number of possible answers to a certain question.
I have a couple of detailed responses written, but instead of trying to guess what people might want their character to answer and end up with dozens of people saying "why can't I reply x?", I thought I'd open the floor to you guys and see if there's any particular replies a lot of players want to make.
You can reply either in detail (i.e. the word-for-word response your character would give), or as a summary (e.g. "I'd want it to be romantic").
If you give a detailed response then I might use it in the game, either verbatim or in modified form. Conversely some responses might not be used.
So, the question to your Newlife character - this only applies to the virgin ones :
"When you lose your virginity, what do you want it to be like?"
I do have an alternative question for non-virgins but the reply needs to
be written very carefully to handle the limited amount of information
Newlife stores about past sexual encounters, so it isn't well suited for taking ideas from people.
Edit:
The above wasn't very clear, but this is a question you'll be asked in-character. If your character is still a virgin at a certain point then an npc will ask her how she imagines herself losing it.
So, the answer would be what your character would say to the npc. I have one written for low femininity male-start characters, for instance, where you try to insist you aren't into men but then find yourself tempted despite yourself :D

If the character likes rough content, I wouldn't expect them to be a "reliable narrator" in this conversation... I think you have to consider responses where what the character actually wants and what the character says they want are two very different things.

2016-05-18 15:26:32 +0000 UTCMaybe this has been brought up already, but will the player's response be able to call out specific NPCs as people they'd want to have sex with for the first time? Most obvious would be saying that you want to be with your current boyfriend, and maybe listing some of his traits that the player finds appealing. Or maybe letting the player pick from a list of NPCs that they player has a relatively high affection/knowledge level with, and telling the friend who asks about why they'd be the right choice.
