Unlikely, wsan's may project is vatia pregnancy so brihaus is on hold for now.
Is it? I think I heard somewhere that it was confirmed it's happening this May, but I might also be misremembering it.

One gripe I have is that for the salamander eye color in the tf is locked to gold when lore wise there's other color eyes naturally even if rarer and some npc salamander have non gold eyes (or even non black sclara)

Nope. The last word from him directly was "soon", which in game dev language could mean any time between now and the end of next year.

I have several gripes with CoC2 but i overlook them cause i love this game for the story and the....well everyone knows what I was gonna say anyways.

Gripe numero 1.) Upon visting Cassia and Rina. (Keep in mind that in my playthrough i did not allow Brint to be turned into Brienne) Cassia's nameplate refrences Brint as Brienne and not Brint. This had me panicking thinking that i hadn't properly stopped the armor from changing my big bull boy into a woman

Gripe number 2.) If you are going to let Brint be bisexual and allow himself to be topped by a male champion the bit about disliking all cocks should be removed as it ruins the MxM experience.

Gripe / also a suggestion 3.) Please add more gay romances. And even allow companions like Brint to be married.

And that's pretty much the end of my gripes about the game. Something else that kinda gets under my skin is not being able to set other companions other than Daliza as a Wayfort bedmate.

Okay that truly is the end of my gripes. I also hope I'm not the only gay guy out there playing this game that has fallen head over heels for Brint and hope there are changes to his character that add a more fleshed out MxM Romance between Male Champion and Brint of Khor'minos

Vitra already...has pregnancy. She's not going to get pregnant because she doesn't have a vagina.

Ok genuine gripe: Is the PC my character or am I playing a premade character?
So I've seen a couple of messages on the forum and things mentioned in-game and it really rubs me the wrong way that both writers and Devs will bend your character over and assign them traits you have no control over especially when they're already written as a blob. Like, why is my champ Pansex n Poly? Why wasn't that in the character sheet as a choice when I was creating them? Why does my character choose not to have sex with Cait and want to get to know her to even consider the option for sex but is willing to fuck a demon from hell on sight or ppl he/she just beat up?
The consistency is just all over the place.

I feel like you're weirdly hung up on the Cait thing. The answer why you can't sex her immediately when you talk to her is that one of the devs decided to make it like that at first, and no one bothered to change it.

I do agree with the premade thing though. Feels like the game really wants me to be a couple with Azzy even though I'm not interested in her like that and just wanted to save her hive.

I figured that but then I realized the habit of forcing traits on the PC continues down the line well into the game. When PC gives Lyric "the talk" when they first meet and they explain how they do relationships I was like "I don't subscribe to any of this shit I just do as I please; why would you set yourself up like this as a writer? why would you set this landmine up and step on it?"

It's weird, man, I really don't understand why they didn't just commit to a path. RPG PCs usually come in three architypes:
The Amnesiac - had past and establish character but is a blank slate by the time the player meets the character, this is a classic staple where your Planescape torment and Disco Elysium, and many others come from.
The character of the world: they got a personality and everything but you get to dictate their ideology or how they feel; think Mass Effect, Witcher, Deus ex, Cyberpunk.
Self-insert: Classic D&D style, used to this day.

Nothing too serious, but I did find it a little goofy how many people are crammed into the tiny 1x3 area of the Mino Baths. It does make sense, but still...

On another note, I think it's really fucked up that Oxana changes the gender of our boys at birth, and our Portag that's all about freedom of self and doesn't beef or defend his/her child/children in any form. It's prime real estate for a debate fight.

Honestly, that’s pretty mild compared to what she actually wants all those offspring for, which is future host bodies.

What?!? You joshing me? Where this info at?
Nope. I am not. It’s pretty heavily hinted that Evergreen is basically Furry!Flemeth, though I’d have to go back through the the various dialogue to find the specific bits.

I did not catch that vibe at all, you sure you ain't head cannoning that? Sure she's weird and a recluse but Flemeth behavior? I'm not seeing, tho we did get warnings but was it really that subtle?

If I remember correctly, the hints towards it pop up in some of the dialogue with Meira and Komari. It basically runs along the lines of the previous Lady Evergreens all being suspiciously similar to the current one, and hints that she stole the knowledge of how to possess people from Komari, which is the real origin of their feud.

The student-teacher fallout I get but I'm not sure that was hinted at, but I'm more inclined to believe you because Komari is fucking evil and Carmilla did some shady shit in her past that has her being a recluse. So all three having that "three wicked witches" vibe ain't too far off.
