For the former, there seems to be some parser future-proofing for a relationship change (calling her mistress vs princess) so... maybe at some point?Gimme. Please
Sigh. And now I'm left wondering if there are differences between male and female buttplugs...For the latter, I'm sure the Hers and Hers Buttplug Set get more use when the Brihaus expansion drops.
That last bit isn't going to change, it's treated like that for a reason.Man, while I enjoy Rina lezdom/pussydom content, it is something that kind of muffles me in same wain as Azzy/Brienne scenes. Which is why I am thankful that Wsan wrote the other route where female/cboy get to Dom.
OK, I know that this my sound kind of strange, and maybe problematic, but I would kind of like that if the player has started one of 2 pussy paths with Rina, and have finished her initial three scenes, they later get locked out of the rest of the content if they grow a dick. Same for other way around.
For I do fancy the idea of getting a girl so pussy-whipped that she just loose interest in sausages.
And, on a minor meta level, I find it really strange how you can make Rina a femdom queen that suddenly breaks down into a subby mess the minute you grow a schlong. I know that simple answer is do not grow one, but still feels weird.
Also, -- ignore this if it got fixed, but I would like if the champions magic strap was not treated as a real dick. Thanks.

YEP YEP! You got it right.Himbo = big, strong, good, nice, handsome, not the brightest dude.
Bimboi = bimbo traits but on a guy. Curvy, ditzy, slutty, etc. Things not connoted by himbo as a phrase. In the same way herbo was coined as the female version of a himbo, a woman who is big, strong, good, nice, etc.
Yeah, there are to many assumptions that Azy and the hive make in their dialogue about the champ as of now. Which I would be fine with if I was into Azy to begin with but she never hit off with me. And then her sleeping with Brienne happened and I just felt "yeah, off with her."I don't really have an issue with Liaden or Azzy's characterization aside from how inconsistent it can feel sometimes. You're given 2 options to recruit Azzy, either by fucking her or by repeatedly challenging her to duels but in her recruitment dialogue with her mother, your champ says "Yeah we're probably gonna fuck a lot," whether you wanna fuck her or not so it feels like we as players don't really get a choice in how the relationship is defined. I'd be fine with that if that was the only issue cuz, yknow, porn game- but then they introduce Lia and the relationship between the champ and Azzy becomes an afterthought, as though the champ never actually mattered much to Azzy. It made me lose interest in a character I used to adore, but it's not a big deal if I'm given an option to be petty and friendzone the bug before she does it to us.
I do not think it needs much of an rework. Just have scenes showing off that she cares for the champ. Like, honestly, have a dialogue in dawns quest where she also falls over head for you like she does for liaden or have one of event where she gifts you honey or something. Why are one off events including her about her either screwing Brienne (once again, ewww) or Liaden. Great, she fucks others. What about the player?There's an Azzy/Lia relationship tune up in the works but the info shared has been pretty vague on how much will be changed or addressed in the update. That being said, I'm glad there's work being put into it, even if the final product might be something I'm still not into- after all, there's still plenty of content that's up my alley in this game that I can go spend time on instead. Like Cait.
I agree on that. Be civil.It's probably important to note that whatever the changes end up being, they won't please everyone, so don't be toxic to the author if they don't meet your specific expectations.
I will argue that Cait, Quinm Arona and Etheryn are only ones that feel like they belong in the party.To be completely honest, at this point I only really felt Cait and Brint/Brienne as "true" companions, the others are nice to have around, but after their respective arcs, as expansive as they can be, they seem to become... well, maybe "collectibles" ?
Etheryn comes closest, but after the winter city events it feels like she belongs there more than in the party, and I suspect that will only compound once we've dealt with her sister.
Same with Kiyoko, but with the added burden of her not really seeming interested in the other companions.
Atugia, Quint, Arona, Azyrran and Agnimitra feel more like "bonus content" in that regard.
Sometimes I think it'd be nice if we could have Cait and Brint/Brienne as permanent group members with the guest slot filled with whomever is most relevant to the current story
Oh well.
I think it's one of the drawbacks of them being the characters you're likely to recruit first. Brint and Cait are hard-scripted to be recruited while everyone else is optional (Except Atugia in certain circumstances. Her case is weird).Same with Kiyoko, but with the added burden of her not really seeming interested in the other companions.

Ryn is too, mostly because she's found on an unavoidable tile on the critical path (similar to Brint) and the later dungeon needs her.I think it's one of the drawbacks of them being the characters you're likely to recruit first.

Viviane was added recently. I've even tried recruiting her. The path to recruiting her is pretty non-critical, and really hard to miss if it weren't for the recruitment quest starting the moment you acquire a Succubus Milk.Agnimitria is probably the last companion you can recruit. She has an interesting design but her decision to remain holed up in the middle of nowhere leads directly into the "out of sight, out of mind" problem I have. It also means she doesn't really interact with anyone else... It took a while for me to remember that the waystone is now useable to change the party because I'm used to do it in the Frosthound. She's also new enough that she doesn't have much content yet.
Eh, I disagree. Let's remember characters like Queen Nyzeerah and Chief Taldahs can be redeemed from their corruption whereas in a trulyGrimdark setting (say, Warhammer 40k) the only way to end their suffering would be to kill them.Only in the direct sense, the darkest part is probably the setting itself if you take a moment to look at the cosmology of it all. The world itself is actually fairly grimdark if you get down to it.
True. That's why I generalized saying games like it (or porn games in general). And while TiTs is a different game it's the closest in similarity to CoC2 that I can think of (haven't played CoC1 so).So, while I agree with a lot of your assesment, I do take issue with your oppening statement.
We only have Garret, Jin Jin and Liaden -- a straight and a gay guy, and a lesbian -- who are gender locked. Now, TiTS is the other story but this is CoC2 thread so I will leave it to the side.
Well even if that's true, some npcs that you could fuck w/o a penis often have a lot of cock-gated content/scenes. And even if u can fuck other npcs w/o one, it's pretty clear what they prefer and vag-champ scenes are generally shorter, less passionate, and not as well-written (in my opinion) if you compare them to dicked scenes. I personally didn't really connect with a lot of vag-only champs scenes bc most felt awkward or it always comes back to talking about dicks in the end (like this is only pale in comparison or npcs complain they wish PC had a dick).I feel like "penis obsessed/focused" would be more apt way for you to put it. Although, even then, only 3 female NPCs strictly lock you out of their content if you do not have a dick -- Kiyoko, Meme Girl and Matiha if you keep her with Berwyn.
Yes. And as you will say at the end, we can chuck that to the fact that most of the writers are guys so it is kind of hard to go into describing female extacy. Which I can understand. But at same time, I agree with you that a lot of it still feels phoned in even with that in mind.Well even if that's true, some npcs that you could fuck w/o a penis often have a lot of cock-gated content/scenes.

Do not get me started: Rindo (entier Den, really), Lyra, Jen, Byvernia, Rune, Basically every female Centuar and Orc... There are probably others, but yeah, if your vchamp is not hitting on a girl with a dick, chances are that they will at most give you a pity fuck.I personally didn't really connect with a lot of vag-only champs scenes bc most felt awkward or it always comes back to talking about dicks in the end (like this is only pale in comparison or npcs complain they wish PC had a dick).
I would also add B there since he did write Zo (preg expansions not withstanding), Fem Statues, fem lyric and a lot of his female NPCs in TiTS are friendly for people that are lacking a particular sort of equipment. At least for me: nan not speak how much they appeal to you, but I at least find them fulfilling and empowering.Probably bc majority is written in mind for hetero/cis male audience (which is also the majority so makes sense) and often times I noticed that even in dicked pc scenes it doesn't take into account whether PC is female or not (only seen Alypia and Skow seem to have taken into account of that like playing with pc's boobs, etc.).
As seen above, I agree with a lot of what you are preaching. But I would also like to add that content that is meant to appeal to women often to me feels like it lacks in "Umf" (Quin, Keros, Imad, a lot of vaginal scenes in general) that can be found in male focused content. So it is a lose/lose situation through most of the game, at least for me.So even if not male-locked or cock-locked, the content doesn't seem like made in mind for women (esp if u play vag-only champs like me). I know that the majority of the audience and money etc., and also the writer's preference and other elements all contribute to that. I guess it's also a difference between who the writer is too. So honestly, being locked behind a male character does often seem to go hand in hand with it being cock-locked (doesn't help that there aren't a lot of male herm or cuntboy players in general, and those types of NPCs in coc2).
Eh, I disagree. Let's remember characters like Queen Nyzeerah and Chief Taldahs can be redeemed from their corruption whereas in a trulyGrimdark setting (say, Warhammer 40k) the only way to end their suffering would be to kill them.
