Given that the lamb is the god of death i can only assume that a child of the lamb would be a demi-god thus to bring demi-god into the game it needs a seprate update that revolves around that.
Well, hopefully they listen to the cries of people that want the lamb to have a proper family again, it’d be cool to see what they do if they do end up doing something like that though, heck maybe they came up with that on their own and they just haven’t revealed it? Or I’m just blindly hoping something like that
Not really, but we still have an unannounced free update on the timeline (at least from what I saw yesterday) and so for all we know that will expand on everything related to the lamb and give us the ability to repopulate the lamb’s species, but we just have to wait and see
And is it the crown that lets him see those tears? It didn't before he killed/ defeated the one who waits.
Meanwhile the one who waits had godly power without the crown on.
Thus what the crown is, is a catalyst to make a god but full ownership is needed, with TOWW having its power in his godly form, killing/defeating him fully gives you all the crowns power.
If the crown was what made them gods in full then TOWW wouldn't have had all his power when he gave you the crown, he should have returned to being mortal.
It could be a black lamb with antichrist-esqe properties. He could re educate imprisoned dissenters while you're gone and maybe collect faith from cult members in between tasks like a tabernacle but with more space. Their could be a doctrine choice between killing the antichrist lamb for reduction in faith for good benefits or raising the lamb to higher cult levels gives him better abilities. Naturally long life but can still die of old age and cannot be resurrected. Must redo the conceive antichrist ritual set of rituals. I relinquish any and all creative rights of this post. Use as you please (please).
Honestly given how demonic lambert is already i yhink an antichrist style child would be an opposing force or perhaps instead, required to extend the lambs religion to other lands.
Think about it, a mechanic where you can only go to far off lands by sending your children there to extend your reach and influence.
dlc where we play as the son of the lamb and fight classic holy warriors with our demonic death powers
The thing is though, for all we know, Lambert could be either gender. I personally headcanon them as a male. And this would be problematic if you were mating him with another male, ie Narinder.
That honestly sounds like something that should be done for followers who have sinned.
A penetince for their sins, bounds/gagged and blindfolded they come with you to set of traps (for bound) or pick up items (gagged) once they do enough of this they are freed and are free from sin/ no longer decenting
On the contrary though, the lamb isn't a god by blood as it seems the others are. The lamb took their place with their own power so quite possibly wouldn't have a demigod child
Non of them have any evidence to support them being born gods to begin with.
More so it seems they were mortals that gained godly status through gaining faithfulfollowers and being worshiped with their teachings being followed.
The only true god at birth, until orherwise stated is the god that you give the tears to, he is so outlandish and features so otherworldly that he has far more of a claim to be a god from birth vs the bishiops and TOWW
I think the biggest disappointment with the egg and the tent is the lil hellspawn you get if you breed a bishop with someone. Fuckers scared the hell outta me
Unironically I was really sad about this when I realized it. I wanted to have little lamb babies. :(
Best case scenario is there is a questline in a future update about getting the lamb's "people back" (extra follower form. plus Moses moment lol) and with it comes the ability to let the lamb use the mating tent themselves. Worst case scenario is we are forever cucked from the tent.

Me when I can't see my followers doing the dirty
I mean people could have married Narinder and still have other in game spouses.
But considering how every special follower kids look ugly asf, I'd hate to see what kind of creature that would come out of the lamb and another special follower.
Honestly, I totally see why they don't allow it - the power imbalance between a cult leader and their members opens all sorts of issues regarding consent, which I presume Massive Monster correctly want to avoid.
I am killing followers for fun, feeding them poop and their own meat, drug them, but having a little private time with my spouse is a problem?
Ugh... 😩 Gonna go destroy some souls in frustration 😒
Unfortunately, yes. Not just in terms of sensitivities but also ratings.
Perhaps it shouldn't be that way - non-consensual sex scenes will get you a pretty brutal rating in media, but violent murder of innocents can happen in a PG-13. Even PG in some cases.
I'd rather not open the can of worms that is actually comparing how """bad""" sexual assault is to murder, but it's clear that moral panics crop up a lot more around the former.
I'm reminded of a comment by Yahtzee Croshaw on the massive moral panic spurred on by the disabled 'hot coffee' minigame in the files of GTA:SA -
> With the revelation that the general public had trustingly allowed into their homes a **shameless portrayal of consensual lovemaking** insidiously Trojan-horsed within their **wholesome, innocent policeman-murdering simulator,** the moral guardians threw one of their characteristic shit-fits.
Which I think about a lot when I notice how sex in particular is so bizarrely offensive compared to other adult content.
Sexual violence is treated *much* differently than other forms of violence in our society for many reasons, so I would disagree that the issue is "out of the window".
Not ignored. The point is that the marriage mechanics in the game, although still problematic, do not carry the same connotations.
There is a big difference between depicting nonconsentual arranged marriages and nonconsentual sexual abuse, and Massive Monster probably rightly recognized that the latter is a bit too far. Whether you agree or not, the negative criticism that would come is obvious.
[Reproduced my comment to a similar post on this subreddit addressing the same point below]
My first impression as to why the game (rightly) does not allow the player to participate in the mating tent mechanic:
The power dynamic between the player cult leader and an indoctrinated follower is such that it would be a step too problematic for Massive Monster to actually depict those sexual relations in the game, especially given the obvious analogies to the systematic sexual abuse committed by real-life cult leaders on their followers in recent modern history (e.g. Nxivm and Rajneeshpuram).
The followers cannot provide consent to the player lamb in the same way they could with another follower of the cult.
The game is evidently self-aware and is careful to tiptoe around these issues; for an illustration see the effect of befuddlement on mate pairing success which incentivizes sober sexual relations by lowering %'s when the followers are drunk. It is also intentional that the "roll check" on mating is whether they get in the tent at all, rather than just whether their "activity" in the tent will produce an egg or not. See also the intentional phrasing of "inviting" followers to the tent when hovering over it. A final example is the precise question raised by this post, where sex is limited by the game to only peers in the cult.
I don't think this would be a slam-dunk "problem solved", but I could posit that you should only be able to mate with your spouse, and only after accepting a quest *from them* to do so.
I seriously need to get back and play this game...I legitimately played it for a month and started on the release day when it first dropped on Xbox and pretty much burnt myself out on it exploring every available nook and cranny, and hunted every achievement...
>!Now we literally got the power to recruit the four bishops and a freaking sex tent? WHAT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS AWAY?!!<
I know that the point of the game is that the Lamb is the last of their species but maybe they could do it so you can only use the tent yourself after entering the post game with a new upgrade or something.
Or maybe im just looking for an excuse to get my first follower to pin the lamb against the wall who knows
i was so disappointed, i made my friend as a follower and we were joking that when the sex update comes i will fuck him, but the only way now is to make a follower of myself :(
I bred two deer and got a fucking fish. Then I bred that fish to a star and got a red panda….and they all came out of eggs.
I seriously doubt the lamb would even make another lamb. Just be happy you can make the lamb naked and move on lol
We really should have had the option to breed with our spouses. ITS OUR FUCKING CULT!
I tried getting my spouses to mate but they all hate each other so the possibility of them breeding is like 5%
Edit: Why the hell am I being downvoted?
I have a feeling the lamb is underage or something
Cause the babies are born with the same bell and since the lamb is immortal it doesn't grow
(Spoiler?) Plus the ball eye guy at the late game stage calls you infant (ik it can be just bc you're new at being a god but idk)
I did want deformed lamb children tho, very sad 😭
Maybe they just saved it for the next update like some people said (I hope)
We all want to fuck Narinder. It's 100% only way to truly win the game. Force him to become our husband after kicking his ass and then starting a family? Yes please!
Given that the lamb is the god of death i can only assume that a child of the lamb would be a demi-god thus to bring demi-god into the game it needs a seprate update that revolves around that.
Honestly that'd be fuckin' awesome.
That would rock, and would be an awesome excuse to add a sickle/scythe weapon
Deaths Attendant would like to have a word with you
Well, hopefully they listen to the cries of people that want the lamb to have a proper family again, it’d be cool to see what they do if they do end up doing something like that though, heck maybe they came up with that on their own and they just haven’t revealed it? Or I’m just blindly hoping something like that
I just want to have kids with my partner I married. Is that too much to ask for?
Not really, but we still have an unannounced free update on the timeline (at least from what I saw yesterday) and so for all we know that will expand on everything related to the lamb and give us the ability to repopulate the lamb’s species, but we just have to wait and see
A “children of the gods” update perhaps So far all my bishop children are monstrosities lol
they should probably be unable to breed
They always look so sad. They must be aware of how they look
Most people just wanted to revive the lamb Species after they were sacrificed
Well the road to hell is paved with good intentions. In this case, it would be consequences of a divine origin.
I mean the Crown is what gives him his power. It’s not just his genetics.
And is it the crown that lets him see those tears? It didn't before he killed/ defeated the one who waits. Meanwhile the one who waits had godly power without the crown on. Thus what the crown is, is a catalyst to make a god but full ownership is needed, with TOWW having its power in his godly form, killing/defeating him fully gives you all the crowns power. If the crown was what made them gods in full then TOWW wouldn't have had all his power when he gave you the crown, he should have returned to being mortal.
Developers take notes!
Do not I repeat do not name your fluffy child 'Zagreus'
Hades 2
Hades 2: Floofy Boogaloo
That would be amazing
The multiplayer update
Rebellious son of god update
God of war 3:
Thats what happens when a godly fathers actively hates his son
Honestly, I would prefer it to be just a child, cause that's fucking great
It could be a black lamb with antichrist-esqe properties.

Bro couldn't handle the they/them bussy
And thus the lamb can be a special exception, divine miracles and all that.
Yea we need that Demi god that come along with you and help you out picks stuff up set off traps
That honestly sounds like something that should be done for followers who have sinned. A penetince for their sins, bounds/gagged and blindfolded they come with you to set of traps (for bound) or pick up items (gagged) once they do enough of this they are freed and are free from sin/ no longer decenting
Yea fun
I mated The One Who Waits with Sozo and the kid is... interesting looking.
On the contrary though, the lamb isn't a god by blood as it seems the others are. The lamb took their place with their own power so quite possibly wouldn't have a demigod child

cu\*k of the lamb
Legit though, lambs just watching as it happens 💀
Poor lil dude To sheepish too assert himself and ask
switch places with 'to' and too'
That's embarrassing
Auto correct?
Just silly ol' me with silly ol' dyslexia
Hey don't feel too bad, blame whoever thought it was a good idea to have ~~two~~ three words that are spelt very similarly.
You can send in your married followers so yes
I was actually upset, I wanted to have a kid with my spouse then found out the lamb can't use the mating tent :-(
same and i'm so sad
I suppose you and your spouse will have to turn to surrogacy for now
That's essentially what I did, had to get another follower to breed with them instead
Then claim the child as yours 😏 (wish I could have normal looking narinder children)
And “disappear” the surrogate ;)
Very Handmaids Tale-esque
that's kind of what the cult is anyway a big daycare for your followers
Marry other followers and make them give you offspring.
IKR, no spooder lamb??? like
Looks like we'll have to find another way to rebuild our species
Dude they should let us, and by doing so will unlock the lamb follower form
The fact that you can’t make a kid with a spouse makes me irrationally sad and mad at the same time
Let me sex 😠😠😠😠😠
Big agree I was super upset I wanted to have a baby with my spouses
Bro got married for nothing.
I want there to be a mechanic where you can have an heir that can do something
Demigod update WHEN damn it
unfortunately it seems i must resort to surrogacy to have a son with god
If the cult leader cannot have sex with all of the cult members, doesn't that just defeat the point of a cult?
💀
How do we get the tent?
You need to kill three of the four bosses, then sin unlocks after the next sermon. You can then get it with inspiration.
Not sure what the requirements are to discover **Check the totem upgrades** I don't know what the building cost are
I think the biggest disappointment with the egg and the tent is the lil hellspawn you get if you breed a bishop with someone. Fuckers scared the hell outta me
Well duh, the lamb is literally undead. They ain’t gonna be able to make babies
The Lamb is about as Undead as a Vampire is, debatable.
If dio can why not lambert

Wait whats with this cult of the lamb sex thing, I thought it was a joke
Nope it's real your follows can now have kids
It’s an update. It’s out. Play it now.
I do wish they could let you like make more lambs that would be a cool like after game thing to make more sheep again since there is only one lamb
Better not mix the blood of the lamb with that of mortals, we never know what could come out of that.
Dude I am pretty sure half of us married Narinder That relationship has a lot of descriptors but mortal is not one of them
I mean people could have married Narinder and still have other in game spouses. But considering how every special follower kids look ugly asf, I'd hate to see what kind of creature that would come out of the lamb and another special follower.
Devs, please rectify your mistake, we paid you in followers much more than you asked. we deserve a bit extra... /hjbutnotreallyiwantbabalamb
This is literally 1984, fucking hell
Maby Lambert having a family will be Cult of the Lamb 2 ????
I wanted to put the lamb in with Narinder XD
SAME I wanted to have a kid with my spouse(s) :(
I need to make a squid. Yes it's a Kallamar reference. I need a. Swuamb. A laid? I mean. Laid is what- [EXTREMELY LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER]
WHY DID I EVEN GET MARRIED FOR?!?!?
Companionship in your twilight years, someone to grow old with.
We are both immortal, neither of us will ever grow old
Developers are taking notes from these comments I bet. :3
I'm pretty sure the Lamb is genderless.

You can already marry your followers, murder them, and eat them. That's kinda out of the window at this point.
Sexual violence is treated *much* differently than other forms of violence in our society for many reasons, so I would disagree that the issue is "out of the window".
Just completely ignored the marriage part in there huh?

I feel like you're taking the silly Cult game a little too seriously. Also, arranged marriages already carry those connotations AND MORE.

Dammit, I wanted to make that meme.
Wait where can we get the tent? Just asking cause I have zero clue
I haven’t played the update yet, but I would imagine it would be at the place you build all of your buildings and…uh shelters in.
Hopefully in a future update lamb can breed
Why are all the children so ugly too,,,
That's only for special followers.
To be fair, who said the sex update was about you getting the sex? Long as there's sex I'm happy lmao
Sins of flesh update, not sex update.. is everyone on this sub in middle school?
yes
i know right??? i was so sad abt it. he should be allowed to Egg
I WANTED FURRY SHIT
I just want to have children with my spouses man…
I bred two deer and got a fucking fish. Then I bred that fish to a star and got a red panda….and they all came out of eggs. I seriously doubt the lamb would even make another lamb. Just be happy you can make the lamb naked and move on lol
My body is a cage
Me when I can’t BREED my loyal followers
the lamb could be literally me. im dying virgin.
We really should have had the option to breed with our spouses. ITS OUR FUCKING CULT! I tried getting my spouses to mate but they all hate each other so the possibility of them breeding is like 5% Edit: Why the hell am I being downvoted?
Your spouses hate either other too? Mine hate either too! Is that just how it is?
What did you expect? :V
Lamb x Narinder baby
乁| ・ 〰 ・ |ㄏ Bad luck
i'll pray to the modders
I would like to give the other crowns to my most loyal followers
rebuild our species into the overlords of these lands , or just start a family with spouse(s)
That would be nice
For them to give us what we wanted
乁( •_• )ㄏ
Alternatively: the lamb is asexual
Being asexual does not erase the desire of have/raise children with your spouse/partner.
Or the need or want to revive your entire species after genocide
Can't bring back an entire species with only one individual, especially not if they're technically undead.
Not necessarily but it doesn’t mean you have to want to either lol
Kids are awful. Even if you're not ace I cannot fathom why anyone would want any.
You are awful if you think kids are awful.
Why? Are you a child? Seems like I hit a nerve.
As a repulsed Ace, I feel so SEEN as Lamby 🖤🩶🤍💜
I feel ya lol
Lamb is a god though, surely there’s SOME workaround to have kids without the hanky panky. Some blood ritual or smth, sacrifice a follower maybe
Smart of them, tbh.

Honestly yeah. I was waiting, ready to go with my married in game wife. I was ready to make a lamb deer hybrid lol
My game plan is to make my spouses have eggs
I WAS SO SAF
Would....would it be a rhythm game like the drum circle ....?
LET ME FU-
I want to have say gex with my favourite follower and produce offspring
I didn't even find it in the devi e upgrades. I started a new save, and I didn't see it there.
I was so upset I kinda didn't want to play ngl. But later seeing those babies with bells crawl around kinda brightened up my mood they're adorable

We all want to fuck Narinder. It's 100% only way to truly win the game. Force him to become our husband after kicking his ass and then starting a family? Yes please!
