Just looked up the Lioden pregnancy art and yeah... let's not do that. Very unrealistic, more like a human or a pig would look. Big cats barely show and have small nipples. Canines show more, but wolves are usually hairy enough you don't see much. Only supporting if it's realistic.

I see It a waste of artists time when were over two years Into the game with a limited amount of content still. This seems like a better task to take on In a year or two when the game Is more fleshed out and spending time on those things Isn't nearly as bad.

I dont know about you but I would totally prefer either pre-existing content being worked on (Marks, eye types bases etc)

Or our first drastic adult mutations being added like Liodens Primal or Hybrids
Or even mild breeding traits like extra fur etc, Its supposed to be a breeding game after all but little Incentive to actually breed.

Ahem, a pregnancy pose would Indeed, not encourage me to breed my wolves.

Custom Decor, I forgot to mention this at first but changing the pose for nested/pregnant wolves, wouldn't that break every custom decor the wolf had during that time? Big no-no from my side for this.

Oh that's a good point! I use a lot of custom decor, and it would be kinda sad to have the wolf "lose" all their custom decor for however long they're nested.

If there's a toggle to turn off the nesting pose, I'll probably turn it off so my wolves can stay fully decorated.

(I also agree with AliBird that I'd rather artist time be spent on new content - e.g., new markings, new bases - instead of re-doing everything for a nesting pose that I probably won't get much use out of.)

I don't see it in Bugbox- should we report COI not being calculated on the first page or is this still an ongoing fix?

What if the Artist Team has already made this pregnant pose along with all markings adjusted to the pose and all that's remaining is whether pregnant belly should be shown or hidden?

Extremely unlikely, since the midsection accounts for about a third of the artwork and has a lot of markings dependent on the shape of it (as well as the overall pose.)

Good point. So it's easier for them to cancel all their plans when they have barely begun anything.

They're definitely polling before finishing the artwork and doing marks and bases, yea. :>

I can see what some of you are saying. If getting the pose earlier means less markings and such, I would prefer the actual functional stuff. Though technically we don't know how the workload works, it could be different teams working on different things. Not gonna assume to know.

A pregnancy pose would still be neat though. :P

To the people starting to rag about a pregnant pose possibly having nips like the Lioden pose and all I gotta say is... seriously? This is a 16+ game and you're complaining about THAT?
That's immature like, Tell me you've never seen a heavily pregnant animal without telling me ๐Ÿ™„ It's not unrealistic. Some animals when pregnant have very pronounced teats. It varies female by female and isn't... piglike... really??? Even post-birth canids have them rather pronounced. I personally think it'd be cute to have a wolf in a sorta roly-poly pose like the lions on Lioden.

Just say you're uncomfortable with natural anatomy instead of projecting that immaturity onto others, jfc. 		Emerald
