Your Gripes With CoC2

[Lostname475]

The demon slaying swords from Maidensbane have been bugged since they were added. They fundamentally do not work, they provide buffs to the enemies instead of the player and have done for some time now. I am aware that its encouraged to make a bug thread rather than posting in here, but there is already a bug thread for these swords that has not been responded to by devs at all

While I understand the frustration, sometimes those bug threads get drowned out by others. For bugs that are important to me, I like to bump the thread usually stating that this is still an issue with (type current version of game here). To get it back into an area of visibility.

unfortunately the thread i'm referring to is Resawar's report of it, which has been doing exactly that since april, to absolutely no effect as far as I can tell. Actually going a bit further, it seems like no bugs reported on the forums have been marked fixed since version 0.8.35 in May. Its hard not to compare that unfavourably to TiTS bugfixes in which things seem to get fixed about a week after the report. Like I know its different teams and all, but its been months since anything reported here got looked at as far as I can tell for coc2

I think it's a matter of resource allocation. TiTS gets bugs fixed faster, but most of the content updates for it are just new sex scenes. CoC2 gets quests and whatnot more often, which is probably a lot more time-consuming for the coders.

This is just me spitballing, I may be way off here.

The longest time I know a bug report sat around was two and a half years but I assume my new set will be fixed faster, maybe after the estate is finished? Most of the fastest bug fixes are crashes and typos, which makes sense with what the game is.

Magenta's Characters..

Ol Needle has written quite the number of characters for Coc2 that have not been implemented. At the top of my head there's a manticore, corrupted siorc, a salamander and group of adventurous.

Most of these were finished as early as 2023-2024.
The only character of Mag in the game right now is that harpy gilf Charline who till this day does not even have a bust. After years of her hard work not being implemented (With the exception of additions for existing characters) The next thing we see of her contributions is writing scenes for the Gnoll spell blade..

Im happy the spell blade is finally in but i cant help but feel it's a damn shame out of 3-5 characters Mag wrote for this game only ONE was implemented with said one not even having a bust, it's kinda wild

Queen Alissa (Winter City)

Gytha, Jael'yn, and Elthara are all fights that are all pretty good for that stage in the game, but I dread fighting Alissa everytime and cannot fathom how she is even in the same dungeon. If you do not beat her in Initiative she basically removes a party member from the fight, and she heals 30% of her HP in a single round while doing it. There is no setting up against her, no tanking against her, and you can't even tease her to death.

You almost have to one shot her to not immediately lose the fight, meaning you have to dump all your stuns and ultimates on her until she dies, and at that point it might as well be a dialogue. By the Horns is a necessity for this fight since it does a ton of damage and makes it so she only heals instead of heals and beats you to death. Even then, if you do not split, act, or kill her before her 3 turns it means nothing. If you do anything but hit multiple extremely high damaging powers against her in a row, you lose.

Maybe I'm just getting worse with every new game, but there is no fight before or after her that is this much of a headache.
