Your gripes with CoC II

[WolframL]

The devs are well aware that many things in the game are not 'realistic' and they don't care. If being able to take Kasyrra's ginormous horsecock with no issues passes muster, being able to swallow equally ginormous amounts of cum isn't going to be the kind of issue they care about addressing from the 'could this really work?' standpoint.

If you must, headcanon that everything in Savarra has evolved the ability to digest massive amounts of sexual fluids as some sort of evolutionary advantage or something.

at the beggining Brint said every warrior worthy of their salt has at least a few scars.. or something like that. How comes he still havent lost his balls? Its an easy target.

Maybe they were too busy sucking on it to even think about that possibility

That line is just his sorry bitch-ass excusing himself for being such a poor warrior. If you are good, you would never receive one.

Minor gripe: I wish that training with Zo kicked you back to her talk menu instead of all the way out one square to the west. Once you've had sex with her at least some of the training texts end with a pretty heavy prompt that the two of you are looking to bone, and it's awkward when the game boots you straight from that to a potential encounter.

 

[Frantic]

Second minor gripe, Zo's name is too short to search in the forums so I have no idea if anyone else has said this before and I am not manually looking

I'm new around here, but this is the thread for minor gripes that have no consequence, right? In that case: What the fuck is Takahiro's whole deal? I come to the fox den to knock up cute vixens, not read about a random drunk guy fucking other mostly inconsequential vixens. I know, I know, there's a button right there to ignore his events but I reach the point where I wonder what the character is even for, he's just around stinking up the place. Iunno, I'm not really expecting a response or anything, I just am a bit frustrated with him.
Also, sometimes I wish there were slightly better signposting of which choices involve a dick in my ass. Like the dragon-taur's cuddle option, I didn't expect sex to be involved at all. Maybe I just didn't read the tooltip, that's very fair response, I barely remember what it said. It hasn't happened often, just a little thing that kind of irritated me.
That's kind of it for gripes, honestly. No wait, there's one more—wands! Where are my wands? I want to use all the cool off-hand catalysts the game has, but there are no good wands around!
Other than that the game is great! I really enjoy it, even if the combat does still sometimes confuse me(I'm not certain why exactly my AOE attacks suddenly became worthless when i finished the Winter City arc, and I'm not certain how to improve my skill set as a black mage beyond finding more skill tomes in puzzle chests). I guess I could also complain about how it feels really weird doing victory sex when I'm walking around with my fox wife, but that's a personal complaint.

Planned for content that's been back-burnered like most of BubbleLord's projects. Now that he's back to writing more again, getting around to that is probably somewhere in his to-do list.

Yeah, you might want to read those more closely next time.

The Control Rod is kinda broken to an absurd degree (until Balak finishes the combat rebalance anyways) so if you want a wand-type weapon for a caster right now, that's the obvious go-to. Of course it's gated behind Kinu's paralogue but if that's not an issue for you, go grab it.

Also, the Wooden Rod may be a starter weapon but it's actually quite good, providing a similar Spellpower/Spell Pen boost to the other wand-type weapons and it deals Crushing damage and has the Ranged tag.

It depends greatly on what AoE attacks you're using and what you're using them against.

You can train in new Powers with certain characters, which gives you access to not only any abilities you missed during level up but lets you get powers that you don't naturally learn in your chosen Class. Start with Ivris and Sanders for the Black/White Mage ones. There's also Mirror Stance which lets you steal a whole bunch of powers from enemies.

Yeah, I know about training, I have all the black mage abilities I can get from Ivris (and the wolf power from Viviane, weird that only she teaches that one). I didn't know you can learn abilities outside your class though.

In terms of 'what attacks you're using' I was in the glacial rift mainly using either Fireball or Arc Cannon because the ice place seems like the place to either use lots of fire or no fire(depending on how meta the game design is) with pyromancer Brienne and Witch Cait, and both AoEs were generally doing around… forty to sixty damage? Way more on the bird knight guy but I think that's because his bird is really weak to lightning and that factors into the damage he takes for the knight.

I don't know what Mirror Stance is, though. It sounds like a Zo ability, but went and learned all of Zo's abilities I think. Was there one I missed?

Mirror stance is one of the possible rewards for completing the Convocation of Mirrors event. To do that event, you're going to need to beat Sigrune, the Jotun standing to the upper right of the Old Forest.

Oh! I never went back there actually. I was expecting to at some point see text pop up during a conversation with like, Komari or the Baroness(why can't you interact with her outside of certain events anyways? If it's a matter of 'write it' I might be willing to tackle that) that says "You can go talk to the giant lady now" in so many more words. I guess I could probably beat her at level 6.

The Giant lady talk version of kind of linked to Salamander city but right now have to beat her up

Carmen content is on Savin's backlog; he has Plans for her but hasn't gotten around to writing her content yet.

And yeah, as mentioned there will eventually be a way to get past Sigrune without fighting her but that's gated behind content that isn't in the game yet, though it's closer than Carmen's content since Savin has actually been writing some of it in between other projects. Sigrune has been beatable since she was implemented so Level 6 is way over the point where you're expected to be able to just overpower her; most of my Champs did it at Level 4.

 

[Adan]

ah it took me 20+ tries on lvl 4 , but it was no big deal to retry with a camping equipment i dropped next to it.

 

[Milkman97]

Ah, I see. That's too bad, I think she's an interesting character.

Since this is a gripe thread, though, I feel I have to add something to stay on topic: Why can't I bother more people about learning their magic? I want to be a huge nerd who collects magical techniques, even if they can't be used in fights. Barring that, I want to be able to at least talk about magic with more people.

Am I imagining things or has the load in gotten much slower? It was the same for TiTs too, both browser versions feel like they're loading slower

I have noticed two significant slowdowns recently in the Steam version of the game:

1) The last loading step (for UI assets, I believe) takes a much longer time to load than I remember it.
2) Clicking on the "load game" button at the start seems to freeze the game for 5 to 10 seconds before the load screen come up. This happens only on initial startup and at no other time.

I've noticed no slowdowns during actual play, just the initial startup, so the delays are just a nitpick for me.

 

[Savin]

Yeah I noticed that too, for both games.

If it's happening in the Steam version too I assume it's something either in JS itself or our build server (which the two games share). If it persists past the current builds we'll look into it.

 

[Melon_ear]

The Jaelyn date scene with Daliza could use a blunter tooltip. I expected a lot more chewing out and lot less swallowing.

 

[Tide Hunter]

I'm rather annoyed that Lactic Studs don't seem to actually appear in the appearance. The appearance menu is where you can toggle them, but for whatever reason, the breast description doesn't make any mention of the piercings.

 

[Ferwul73]

... the quest High Ground is too silly for non-silly mode, I think. References are fun, but packing so many Star Wars and Diablo references into one quest is too immersion breaking.

Have you seen the silly mode version? It's so much worse. Also, better.

 

[Animalistic]

Yeah, the swords quest silly mod was kind of painful to sit through. It feels like it mistook sillynes to just referencing stuff where the "comedy" only stems from knowing about starwars without much else backing it up.

Really, that whole quest was a mess now that I think through it. Especially since we do not even get to bang the Incubus.

 

[YEsManKablaam]

My only recent gripe is new sets on characters and not having a CG in the window for it or in appearance screen when swapping since a lot of these have pictures to go with. Or in Ryn's caseand Brienne's it's in the little window and not on her appearance screen. Yeah it's not a big deal and you can't just ta-dah a bunch of pictures of the characters art takes time but with how many sets we have it's just a little annoying.

A bigger one is AFAIK Ryn's second set can't use her own Ultimate and that's stupid. it's redded out since she's using a spear and it's a bow ultimate iirc.

 

[Alypia]

It feels like it mistook sillynes to just referencing stuff where the "comedy" only stems from knowing about starwars without much else backing it up.

"Mistook"? Hardly. No matter where you look in this game, Silly Mode is at least half references. It's all about whatever the writer feels like shitposting.

It's valid to not have enjoyed that particular brand of humor, and even to gripe about it, but saying the writers don't understand what Silly Mode is supposed to be ain't right.

A bigger one is AFAIK Ryn's second set can't use her own Ultimate and that's stupid. it's redded out since she's using a spear and it's a bow ultimate iirc.

She should still be able to and has been able to in the past. Ignore the red text and just click on it anyway. If you still can't use it for whatever reason, that's a bug.

 

[Animalistic]

I mean, fair, different people find different things applicable to the concept of silly mod. But I can criticize on how lazy the whole execution was. Silliness that relies only on association to something popular is just uninspired. It also does not help that it is not written that good. It being a Star Wars homage without it doing anything beyond "hey, remember that thing" is just lame.

Basically, it being a silly mod thing does not mean it should be atoned from critic. Not to put down the writer, but that is how I feel.

 

[Alypia]

You are certainly allowed to feel that way.

I think you built a vision in your head of the quest being something more than it was ever intended to be and are judging it by a standard that's wildly out of step with what someone would reasonably have expected from a memey side quest, but the heart wants what it wants, I suppose.

 

[Animalistic]

I rarely go into a quest with low/high exception since that can make the text in it seem better/worse once I actually expirience it. So I do not see where you got that idea from.

 

[Catmint]

Is there a reason the harp of waves isn't accessible without a real peen? I want it! Puppy eyes

 

[Animalistic]

It's currently impossible to proceed with the Livreaa relationship without having kids. it is just an oversight. It is going to get fixed one of these days.
