/scaly/ - Scaly General #1546Post lewd reptiles and discuss scaly stuff, male or female is fine. Dragons, wyverns, dinosaurs, lizards, snakes, and reptile-folk such as kobolds and Argonians are welcome, on top of other things with scales like sharks as well. Anthros, ferals and human/scaly are allowed, but please, no monstergirls. As some may take a few creative liberties on their creations, do inquire if there's a particular edge case you're unsure about.====================>Lurking or just reading the FAQ before posting is encouraged.>Anatomy arguments never go anywhere, don't bother instigating one.>Before asking for a source, consider looking into the tips under resources to help find what you're looking for.>Please avoid reposting images from the last few threads to keep the latest more fresh.>There is no Discord server, don't ask.===================Scaly Smut - Many lewd lizard writings>https://mega.nz/folder/pM0EHaQK#qpaXTV7AKpDWNAQn8-ZpYgScaly Lit - Even more lizard writings>https://rentry.org/scalylit>https://rentry.org/scalywnMisc Resources - Source finding and other fun stuff>https://rentry.org/scalygeneralFAQ - Common questions already answered>https://pastebin.com/bpUrZimpYou are free to contribute to either, simply reply and post the information.Did you miss something?

>>77542020Come here draganon
>>77532008>Do you mind if I spoil you with some FINE ASS?Just beat her, and DAMN - I knew the Guardians were basically renamed Equal Dragon Weapons, but I wasn't expecting to fight THE Equal Dragon Weapon. She was very clearly made with Fatalis DNA (and some Gore Magala thrown in for good measure), and I totally wasn't expecting her to transform once I broke off enough of her shell. That phase transition where she blew up the whole arena was the first time I fainted this entire game, if only because I wasn't expecting it, got myself surrounded by Wylk crystals, and had nowhere to dodge to when she detonated them all at once.Overall a fun fight, though I hope there's a harder version of it - looks like she doesn't have a weapon, armor set, or any unique materials, so I'll have to wait for an HR or G-Rank rematch for that, I guess. I liked her design - I always had a thing for angelic dragons, though her literally turning into a Fatalis after shedding kinda threw me off - IF WE'RE DOING THIS, THE MASK STAYS ON!Also Arkveld had an egg (I swear it's not mine), so now I'm likely going to have to deal with her kid in the future, unless this is the one that's going to end up in Eorzea when the crossover happens.

>>77543183>cute>pink>cuddly>scalyOh no, my weakness.
>>77540869Bro looks like a worm or sphynx cat with cow ears and tiny horns and his tail scutes are BACKWARDS. I'm not nearly bi enough for that creature, but picrel, dear god. It must be my anti-bara tendencies?
>>77542486>the first time I fainted this entire gameYou just KNOW she straddled your fainted body, shooed away the cart cats, and RODE you to pay her back for destroying her home and body.
>>77542486For a concept that was basically out-of-game myth status it felt absolutely wasted blowing the load on a low rank fight. Right at the ass end of just before the 'game' actually begins proper (which should've been the case since the start).
>>77544427>it felt absolutely wasted blowing the load on a low rank fightI agree - not only did Zoh look like a Fatalis, she was literally using some of its attacks at the end; she should have been a Black Dragon-level threat and definitely deserved a harder fight. Finally canonizing EDWs and giving us one to fight as the final boss sounds good on paper, but when your game is entirely Low Rank difficulty, you're doing everyone a disservice like this. Zoh Shia was specifically built as a last line of defense - presumably against the original Fatalis - and was supposedly responsible for the destruction of Wyveria and loss of all of their technology, so making it a Low Rank definitely cheapened the whole fight....At least she's prettier to look at than the Frankenstein'd one from the artbook that the Hunter's Guild was supposedly trying to revive (which may or may not still be canon, given the Guild guy's reaction to your report during the credit roll and that scientist dude's comment earlier when the nature of Guardians was first revealed); I'm guessing they misunderstood what was meant by EDWs being made from 'monster material'
>>77545547>the Frankenstein'd one from the artbookIt wasn't really anything more than an unused concept, of which was rightfully shitcanned. Things like it and the Crypt Hydra were interesting on a conceptual level but even for MH1 they don't fit the final game's vibe at all. Parts of them being recycled for Zoh Shia, Narkarkos, and possibly Ahtal-Ka's giant fuck-you puppet mech make for more refined versions of these ideas, however over-the-top they are in their own ways. If memory serves right, Duremudira was ostensibly EDW-lite but was supposedly just some mystery tower-squatting fucker instead.To be frank, the finer details of in-world history should really go mostly unexplained. A bunch of villagers in a fully pale white area just casually namedropping a long-gone nation with a brief history lesson makes for some tonal whiplash compared to every other mainline release where ancient civ stuff was just kind of there and never the focus. Would make more sense in Stories, seeing that the core games' world-building is what's interesting. Explain too much and it eventually becomes gay and lame like the Horus Heresy.
>>77546678I made a pretty in-depth post about this on /amh/ about a month ago, which in turn links to a post I made over a year ago.For the curious: https://desuarchive.org/trash/thread/76764553/#76809475The tl;dr of all of that, is exactly what you said about explaining too much.This is one of the most common writing/worldbuilding pitfalls out there, yet it rarely ever gets discussed compared to other things. It doesn't matter if it's MH, WoF, 40k, or any other series/setting, there's just certain things that shouldn't be expanded upon, and instead left ambiguous for the reader/viewer to ponder over and create their own ideas.Less is more. Few things can kill the integrity of a setting quite like unnecessary explanation and exposition.

>>77548722I often have a lot of trouble articulating exactly why I don't like roksim's art, but I think this piece is quite illustrative.He has this extremely low-detail style that's somehow also so busy that it's often difficult to understand what's actually being depicted at a glance, and his animations feature rapid, non-physical movements such that the characters feel like they're made out of silly putty. Plus I just don't vibe with the art style. All of his characters feel way too spindly and disproportional.But I guess it's just a me problem, he's very popular so he must be doing something right.

>>77549059You're right. His art is very miss. It gets some getting used to I guess. I would never of bothered with if there weren't a lot of overlapping with my fetishes which he covers quite a bit in his stuff. Lizzy gets into a lot of situations that hit just right.I also hate how he only really focuses on female anatomy. It's very rare that he actually has art or animation of a vagina and tits. It's just floppy dongs. I was quite surprised he had shown her vagina in the animation usually it's just slapping asses and then slapping testicles.
>>77549059>he's very popular so he must be doing something right.Ehhh...I wouldn't quite say that - e6 has a very fap minded userbase (no really?), so anything animated typically gets a lot of views and likes even if it's not really good (especially in sound, the less genericfemalemoan.mp3 in my life, the better) because it's easier to jerk to than a still image. It might be more popular still for being relatively uncommon fanbase for porn that's gotten older and wanted to fap to the dragonets

VNanon here with a new version of the /scaly/ VN, didn't see anything about any bugs in the last version so I'm hoping no news is good news. I did go back and correct a few typos and things that didnt match up>such as Sarah saying Lance delivers Tuesdays, not MondaysI also started adding in the second shift with the dialogue, so the player meets Elizabeth our 4th main character.Currently still waiting on Artanon for the sprites, but when those are done I can just stitch them right into the script. So if you're reading this Artanon, just let me know (no rush though; I'm just at a point where the writing is moving).Other than that, progress is progress, here's the download link for the PC version:>https://mega.nz/file/2QkUlYiS#Q78S-k7jXTnR-unMHi-Me_Je97QqBFyIenfg9lO-Xw8I think for the next version as well I will try to compile a mobile release; it seems to be a bit more indepth than just compiling for desktop but I'll still give it a go.Anyway, let me know what you anon's think. Elizabeth is pretty forward in her dialogue; she's trying to push the player's buttons and see what she can get away with. She has some conditional (but again non-scoring) dialogue trees to mess around with, and like Karl and Lilianne, her orders are randomly generated too.I'm already working on the second customer, which will be 2 idiot kobolds in a trenchcoat trying to get served (this will be one of the times where the 'Don't Serve' button comes into play)hope u liek

>>>77556276>Born to be loved and be companions to innocent children>Forced to service humanities greatest degenerates.
>>77553154Uh yeah, that is the point of nose rings anon. They create another hardpoint for control. Farmers didn't used to put them on bulls because the bulls really liked following people around when they were led by the nose specifically, they did it because it made resistance to the handler's leading excruciatingly, hideously painful. Y'know how your eyes will instantly water if you get so much as a light bop on the nose? All that cartilage is innervated with thousands of nerve endings, and it is *blindingly* painful if someone messes with them, especially if the area is constantly irritated by, say, a big chunk of metal running carving straight through it.
>>77556412>innocent childrenI'm confident that, at least in the case of PlushLife's creations, that part is not true. The rest tracks, though.
