I like how Lupines are problematic for some people even though its basically just a human-like muzzled face attached to a furry human body.
But then Centaurs are perfectly fine despite the bottom half, and the part you are thereby fucking half the time, is 100% horse. If you have standard, penetrative sex with a Centaur, you are either sticking it in a horse vagina, or getting dicked down by horse cock. And that's still more acceptable to some than Marefolk.

Ah, but you see, instead of horse head, centaur have human as head. Therefore no muzzle, therefore centaur is fine. Except Behemoth. He has horse head replaced with human body, but human head replaced with horse head. In that case it loops back around to being uncool and unsexy. Elementary my friends.
Okay, so, I'm unsure how exactly the Nursery upgrades occur behind the scenes (as the logic behind them is not explicitly mentioned in Gwyn's doc, nor other docs that I've seen), but the way it seems to function in-game is as such: Regardless of how much you donated, it won't "rollover" to the next upgrade donation.
Meaning that if you donated 10k EC at the first upgrade, you would seemingly have lost 9750 EC due to the way it functions. This means that if the prior assumption is true, with regards to every upgrade, if you donate more than the specific amount you're just technically losing EC (to the void no-less, because the end result is still the same - upgrades being done, but seemingly at more cost).
If anyone wants to know how much one would potentially have lost over all the upgrades, here I'll do the maths:
Grand total = 12 upgrades done; should cost 1023750 EC, but seemingly costs the PC 1100000 EC, for a potential cumulative loss of 76250 EC.
Sure, that potential loss in EC may not seem like a lot in the grand scheme of things, but seemingly overpaying because of how the upgrades are currently done is a bit weird. Seeing as one would seemingly have to actually sit and work out how much they're donating each time to avoid overpaying, instead of it just being a system where you can donate (Donate X) any amount up until the maximum (1023750 EC) and have the renovations done overtime.
Donating X or an upfront payment for all the upgrades also improves QoL, as the player doesn't have to micromanage donating every day (and they can save EC; although for some players that's not an issue).
I'm sorry to re-hash this, especially if the above assumption is incorrect - although from multiple first hand experiences, that doesn't seem to be the case (hence why I'm raising this here).
In any event, I did mention a possible solution to the above (if it's actually occurring), as well as just a general QoL fix for how it currently is, mentioned here.
EDIT:
Okay, so, upon testing: The donations / upgrades do "rollover", the only one being left over would be the final donation of 520k - meaning that the PC would only lose 8k EC if donating 10k each time. Not as bad as the prior 76250 EC loss I'd thought was possible.
However, I'd still state that the inclusion of a "Donate X" / "Donate All" (for remaining upgrades) button would allow for an increase in QoL, as it wouldn't take 12 in-game days to donate for the fully upgraded Nursery.

Except not really? If you're fighting a boss with the potential to one-shot you if you have bad RNG (say, like Whisper in the recent quest) then being able to guarantee you don't go down for a few turns can be invaluable without much special setup, and you can still do it with an active healer because you being safe frees Cait up to revive someone else if you need to.
Revive is also like Unbreakable in the sense that they're both reactive powers you only use when you're losing. Only comparable Ult is Cait's Devotion except Devotion can be used as a free action if the PC goes down which makes it miles better than Revive.
Devotion is more useful if you've fallen to Resolve damage rather than Health, with it and Revive having opposite healing effects. Also, White Mage is meant to play a supporting role so having an Ultimate that's based around helping an ally makes sense. If you're in a situation where an ally's down, getting them back at full health can really turn a battle since it's much less likely they'll get whacked before they have time to act again.
Banishment is our disabler ult. It's either a 2 round timeout or an "I win" button against constructs/ghosts/summons. In this damage race of a game, not being able to hurt your opponent is completely counterproductive.

Kitsunetsuki
Banishment is also an amazing way of getting breathing room in a chaotic fight. For example, right after Komari uses Kitsunetsuki on you and you're dealing with every flavor of sadness under the sun. Having a turn to pop curative items on the party and reestablish buffs can be really helpful. If your party can't do anything during Banishment's effect, you're probably just a bit too focused on DPS.
But yeah, hopefully when the level cap goes up, the classes can have another Ult available, unless that'll be a level 10 thing for endgame.
I dunno about anyone else, but I feel more like I could use some mildly overpowered healing Ult would work better with me than something that can one-shot a Dark mode boss, but only if you're a Thief and min-max everything.
No just no. I was laughing the whole time and I don't know why.
I have no gripes because to me the game is just fine to me.
Edit: Like said it's perfect for me because having gripes with the game isn't going to change anything but if posting here helps you go ahead. (Made edit to not double post.)
This is a personal gripe not exclusive to CoC2, but certainly more glaring within. It's the usage of terms like "Trap" to refer to feminine, male characters.
(I'm not certain of a way to change it, if there is one, nor am I certain if another already stated as much. If it overlaps, I apologize for the redundancy.)

It is basically only used when your character is really androgynous male champion that is just really, really feminine. The game uses that label only for description reasons since it is something the general playerbase probably knows the meaning off. While yes, some characters will comment on how feminine your champion is, they will always refer to you as a man or some other similar phrase . Same with other troublesome term such as "shemale" used to describe girls that only posses dick. That one is only used short handed way to make it clear what you are in your save file or character apperance screen. It is never used in game.
While that’s all fair and good, I think it’s also more than reasonable to be extremely uncomfortable with usage of those terms. (I’m coming at this as a non-binary trans person for full disclosure.)
Femmeboy is a decent alternative to describe a very feminine man, and dickgirl is already an optional replacement in TiTS. I think being able to add that change using a cheat code like in TiTS ought to be a possibility, given there’s already precedence for it, though replacing both terms in CoC2.

I was actually referring to how often it is used to describe NPCs. It's tossed around casually, and often times, disrespectfully in CoC2, so I find it distasteful. As someone else mentioned, I personally believe Femboy would be more apt (the term used where I'm from usually amounting to "girly boy").
One example I've noticed is with Sugo. It uses that word to describe him a few times, but almost always in the same sentence as calling him a whore. Nimian has a quip along the same lines, as well.
Ultimately, it is a Transphobic word, but I understand that no amounts of discussion could change most people's minds about it. So I leave it as a personal gripe.

I both believe that femboy is a better term (much more descriptive of the actual identity of who it is spoken of, clearer than trap, and puts it on the person themselves rather than how other people view them) and that trap is not inherently transphobic. It's more about when it's used: I personally feel that it should only be used when someone is a femboy, being masculine in both sex and gender but outwardly appearing feminine, and pretty much every circle which I actively stay in that used trap has also used it do describe that. The only times I have ever seen trap be used to refer to a trans person is when a trans person uses it to describe themselves. Even despite the implications it has when used to refer to trans people, which is why I only use it to refer to femboys, some trans people seem to view it as a more empowering term, since it also inherently applies perfect, or near-perfect, passing. Context matters whenever talking about the meaning of a word, and its use can be derogatory and bigoted or not at all, depending on how its used, how the user defines it, and what the intent behind it is.
Terminology leaves me scratching my head at the dichotomy/hypocrisy of it all. "Trap" is offensive but "cuntboy" is fine. But try calling someone a "cunt" here in the States and watch them lose their shit.
I remember a time when all these words didn't bother anyone because either they didn't even exist yet or they weren't used the way they are now. I haven't personally met someone playing a feminine male that found a problem with the term "femboy," and the term "trap" is a grey area when it's supposed to mean something along the lines of "when a real fucking cute and girly guy dresses in such a way they could be confused for a girl". I fail to see how "shemale" is the real problem here when I've read and heard of at least a dozen other words that actually sounds a lot worse than this one - along with a litany of other slurs and such for other things; and I don't even really go around all over the internet looking for them, a lot of it is even hiding in places you visit on a regular basis.
I definitely don't see the writers and devs on here using words to offend or attack anyone playing them; they add and use stuff to describe things and people, and just because it's 2021 now and people suddenly decided that another 1,000 words that were perfectly fine for the last few years are now absolute heresy and need to be expunged from the dictionary? Or now that there's 27 new pronouns that have been cataloged, that they should be added to the game?
I'll say the same thing I've been saying since the start of 2021 when it comes to companies, developers and such: stop making their work so much more difficult on account of what counts as "politically correct" has changed because politics - you need to learn what kind of people you're working with and talking to, not all this "If I'm offended, then change your wording;" there are plenty of ignorant people who use words without realising or understanding what it actually means, are you going to find every one of them at fault and get angry for not knowing? Might as well form a group to witch hunt everybody that says something that you find offensive and socially ruin their lives to get the results you're looking for by that point.
To end the ranting: I find that it's all about people's environments, cultures and being angry. Someone thinks a word is bad because they heard such from someone else, everyone else instantly either uses it against everyone else because of it, or go out of their way to shame or call someone out for saying the bad thing for some odd reason; I find myself often firmly right in the middle where both the recent new word is stupid and the people making it so offensive are also stupid - and people just eat that shit up because internet.
Can't we all just get along?
On another note...
My current gripe with CoC2 is that I haven't really touched it lately because I'm kind of waiting on the next update after having either played out what I wanted to play, or actually having gone through all the latest content - and know that the next huge update will likely delete all my saves again anyways for some reason, don't know if anyone else had that happen when 0.4.1 dropped.
Damn you content, come out faster!
I feel uncomfortable with most of the terms, especially "cuntboy" which for me would translate to "garoto boceta", which makes me laugh every time google translates it.

No clear walkthroughs other than those made by players. Yes, it's fun to discover, but sometimes one can spend hours without discovering the new content, because it's not that obvious. Would be nice for those who made the content to make a spoiler-tagged guide for it too.
That Cait is the only officiant for the PC's wedding with Atani. Would be nice if we were able to actually choose the priest, such as potentially having Brother Sanders be the officiant, seeing as that definitely seems more in line with his role...

You wanna drag him through the Valley for a wedding? He wouldn't fight anyway he swoar never to fight again considering he hung up his weapon. Plus Cait is already there and it's more fun when she does officiate the wedding.

Since Cait being present at the wedding is part of hooking her and Naiyana up and the threesome content is gated behind the wedding, she actually has to be there and making her the officiant is the easiest way to do that.

Right, well then, if we go by your logic it just moreso confirms it: The wedding is moreso about Cait and her fucking Naiyana than the PC actually getting married to Atani. The whole build up focuses on Cait and her thoughts (her advice, as well the jumping scene, and how the whole village looks at her etc etc), that the actual marriage scene doesn't seem to focus on the PC and Atani.
That's why if we could have Brother Sanders officiate, I'd hope it would actually be a wedding focused around the PC and Atani (seeing as, you know, it's their wedding), moreso than another Cait takes center-stage scene.
I like that Cait officiates the wedding the orgy is a plus a big great plus.
Edit: Like I said I have no problems with the game, Savin and the team put in a lot of time and hard work I don't bitch about what ain't broke. Not saying anyone is bitching.
