Okay the offending post has been removed but the image is still available for your perusal, for the record, which just confirms this was mainly a joke.

I don't like that the Brint to Brienne transformation takes the coward's path on genderswapping and shrinks her so much. Brint's such a huge minotaur that he's gotta turn sideways to fit through doorways and then he turns into a lady and loses about 130 LBs of muscle as well. It'd be one thing if her horns grew in like before so you had a pair of handlebars but we can't even have that. If you're changing a slab of muscle from a man to a woman, keep the proportions somewhat similar.

Yeah it's almost like what wolf said,in both northern and southern, the actual cowards way would have shrunk her from being 8 feet fucking tall.

Once again I am asking for the nursery to say sired/birthed instead of fathered and mothered, my vast hoard of spiders have only one mother and it is not me.

I mean I get what you're saying but people have differing standards of what constitutes attractive musculature especially for men and women. Or even just what works for the characters.

Take the Hulk and She-Hulk. He is a full-on Ogre/Giant-looking fellow, while she is closer to a beautiful fitness model (or maybe a good-looking female bodybuilder depending on the artist). Oh sure, some people draw musclegirls as borderline masculine in build, but sadly some people hate the idea of girls with such explicit muscles.

Also worth bearing in mind is that Brint and Brienne have differing personalities and sexual tastes. Not in that they aren't both bisexual (or at least player-sexual to a degree) but moreso that Brint is very dominant and aggressive, and wants to top most of the time, but Brienne is more submissive and like a wifey type to us. In that sense, the whole massive, built like an apartment block density of musculature can be said to work perfectly for Brint but for Brienne, a slimmer and more feminine but still muscular build works better. Note that even once she's pregnant, she's still plenty strong and capable. She just needs to adjust her stance and how she carries herself.

So. Much. Text.

The logging camp quest just isn't very good. Tons and tons of text, the wolf in the cage going through a million possible outcomes of doing x, and then... You just go talk to Hethia or whoever and it's all good and you get no sex scene either.

That's like an hour of content after which nothing happens and there's no payoff.

I can't see any positives to the whole logging camp quest. It's like a good skeleton but the actual content is missing.

It's a text-baaed game so... yes.

Not every quest or side plot un the game has to involve sex, just the majority of them. Tobs has an entire series of quests that are much more Plot.than Porn and Dog Days is the first of them.

You get Hethia as a guest for WC and the palace dungeons and Garret comes home, granting you all his sex content and access to two other quests, what do you want? It's early game content.

That's not really an excuse. When you wrap up a quest like that, you expect something out of it. If it gets used later in the game, great, but that's a separate occasion. The whole logging camp quest is just a big nothingburger and you don't even get a hot scene.

Of course, that's just my opinion. If you like the characters chatting about a simple situation for ages, pondering options, and then it gets solved by "fight or talk peacefully" aka nothing unexpected and you don't even get a hot scene, then great. It's just not for me.

Sorry, I kind of brainfarted over this comment. Yeah, I suppose it's passable then. You do get Garrett. (Not for me, but can't say it's not good content.)

(Still think Garrett going through all the options was hella drawn out. :p)

Man then your going to hate a lot of the best content in the game, cause a lot of it is 4 "pages" of non sex content.

As long as it's either good or ends up in sex content I'm good. I read books, and I read "books" that are just tons of pages to justify a sex scene. I've got the resilience for that. It's just filler content that I can't abide. Content that doesn't end up in porn or meaningful interactions.

I don't really consider Dog Days to be filler. The way I see it, its main purpose is to serve as an introduction to Garret and Hethia, and it can even influence your future interactions with Hethia. While you may not know it when you initially do the quest, she serves as an important character in the main story later on.

Dog Days also doesn't have to be resolved peacefully. There are several ways to finish it: fighting Hethia, talking Hethia down yourself in a brief conversation battle, or bringing Sanders or Etheryn to talk Hethia down. While it's possible to do the whole thing with zero combat by picking the Hunter/Barbarian backgrounds at character creation and bringing Etheryn or Sanders to handle the talky-talk, it's also possible to have to do several fights during the course of the quest.

I thought if you attack her and steal her bow she doesn't show up later. am I misremembering, because she can't really be of any importance if she isn't there.

I was in fact misremembering but in my defense I haven't actually played in a while.

Isn't the talking it yourself one of the like 3 fucking cunning checks in the game.

She shows up whether you resolve it with combat or with peace. She's much more hostile if you beat her up. and attempting to mend the relationship needs you to return the bow she drops.

No, doing a parley leads to one of the conversation battles (and a short, easy version of one too, essentially acting as an introduction to the mechanic).

I for one actually really like the inclusion of non-porn content. Like, just because it's a porn game doesn't mean all it's decisions and story sections need to be about reaching the next sex scene, you can have stuff to enrich the world itself in between and Dog Days does give an insight to a character or help with context depending on who you bring. It may just be my weird brand of asexuality speaking here, but I do like giving a damn about the games world and non-sex content is a way to do that.

Kinda why I like Valencia's and Serena's content so much. While it does unlock sex scenes and content, the stuff in between is great and stands on its own. Also I'm a sucker for romance. Two reasons I like it.

Also, there are a lot more Cunning checks in the game than that! They just generally change dialogue rather than gating conversation options.

Huh, didn't know that, I get it's probably impossible but it'd be nice to know if something changed in the dioluge due to a stat requirement being met. I'm not smart enough to be able to see the difference.

I don't have a horse-cock fetish, but these games did give me a lot of interest in (the wrong hole)-play which I was not expecting.

For now though I'm just lurking, waiting for expansions to Brint's/Brienne's family content and more preg stuff in May.

I've just accepted there will be another one to fawn over every other backer patch at this point xD
Considering that the last public patch added Sandre and Caera (both demon ladies with horsecocks) and the next to last backer patch added Vacia (succucow with a horsecock) you might be onto something here... and the last backer patch added a new Kasyrra scene. Oh, and for horsecock attached to males the latter two updates added one new character and one new Brint scene too.

Funny enough, I went looking at She-Hulk as an example and actually they went with making her look more like a behemoth like the Hulk for 2018 Avengers.1649710172010.png 1649710764461.png

And I was kinda hoping that the gender swap would be more like, appearance focused instead of also messing with his personality that much? Like sure, new stuff's suddenly a turn on but what's the point if she's not gonna tuck Cait under her arm and use her throughout the night if you're sleeping alone at the Frost March? I kinda would've rather they be an entirely separate character if you're gonna flip their personality that much. Like, imagine if Cait had a genderswap that wore more clothes, flirted all the time and rarely put out. Might as well be a different character entirely. I dunno, I just doubt there'll be a Giant/giantess party member so I'm just whining that we don't get Tomboy Brienne trying to break your bed every night.

Wsan has already made it clear that there are Reasons the armor does what it does which we'll learn about during the KM plot.

Companion submissions have been closed for over a year so once Viv's companion content gets implemented that's it.
so I'm just whining that we don't get Tomboy Brienne trying to break your bed every night.
Brienne will happily try to break your bed (and pelvis) every night so I think you're more whining about Brienne not looking exactly like you wanted her to than about what she does or doesn't do. At this point I refer you back to the point I already made about minotaur sexual dimorphism.
