It's like they lost the plot, going from a nimin style degeneracy game that was awesome and covered a million fetishes, to some medieval soap opera with drama and love interests.
They didn't lose the plot, they're just doing exactly what they wanted to do: shove their DnD setting down your throat while pretending they care about porn or your choices or actions mattering. Most recently, they're not even pretending anymore.

So here's where they fucked up. When the Berwyn Update was released, they just dropped this bomb-shell news that he was being removed from companion status. No warning and little information were given. As well the devs had a "this is how it is, deal with it" attitude. This is not something you just drop on the community and then say "deal with it". Along with some other issues like his old scenes being locked after finishing the quest.
"Dev's could have done something well but their hubris got in the way" is a cookie cutter sentiment that I feel could be applied to most of the decisions they have made for a good while now.

That excuse becomes moot when the majority of companions are barebones anyway. Instead of spending all that time and effort to sweep Berwyn under the rug, they should've just brought the author back and focus on their own companions.

No
Well I don't think they could bring Berwyns author back after he and savin had a disagreement on a lot of things (and also some personal problems the author had irl).

So have some professionalism and sort that shit out. Like it or not, Berwyn had a lot of fans and fulfilled a good niche so to just tossing the character away is fucking stupid. Would it really have been so hard to say:
"Look, I know we've had some issues before but that's in the past. You can work on Berwyn under (x) conditions, and if you don't keep up with that, I'm getting someone else to work on your character."

Although maybe he did do something along those lines, but I have my doubts about that. Savin doesn't seem mature enough to take a step back and compromise in such a way.
At this point I am almost certain that these devs have an anti-milf bias... and it is INFURIATING... :mad:
I've said it once and I'll say it again, it's really fucking weird how little variety is actually in these games. Like you'd think with games where the community's content can make it into the game that there would be a lot of different fetishes and shit.

Nope, all we get are horse cock futas, impregnation, dom/sub shit, and... that's it. Add voyeurism/threesomes to this game. Like there's one fucking footjob scene in all 3 of these games combined, that's fucking insane considering how many foot weirdos are out there and how tame it could be.

Now that I think about it, the devs are really boring with how they handle companions. The fact that they're always with you could lead to some great fetish material but that's never taken advantage of. For example: Imagine a mommy/daddy-dom that restricts the things you can do based on how much you go along with their shit. Like maybe you can't use Naptha/Leananstones because they don't want their "precious baby" hurting themselves or not being able to do corruption choices because "their baby would never do such a thing". Or maybe vice versa and you're the one in that role. Just something that can be done only because they're a follower would be nice.

Granted it wouldn't really be feasible to have all companions have something like that, but it's kind of a let down none of them truly take advantage of companion status. Pretty much all of them could work as regular NPCs, there really should be more options for kinky stuff outside of sex.

I was expecting that they'll do something like that when I found out that they'll be stricter in implementing companions. Like being collared by a dommy companion or restricting choices as you said to hammer in the D/s dynamic. I'm willing to trudge through the shitty combat mechanics and the forced companion system if I'll be able to make an all-domme party and be their little elvish healslut, but all we get are either threesome scenes or the champion just watching their companions have sex.

Wsan has apparently said a few times that despite all of Savin's antics he is an okay boss. I have my doubts about that since he regularly lets his staff duke it out on Discord publicly, and even joins himself. But so says the writer that is pretty well beloved here.

And Hugs's twitter...well...he isn't exactly in a healthy state of mind. Not sure if he ever was.

In this particular case, at least for the kicking out of Hugs, I'm inclined towards being more neutral. We don't have all the information to make a judgement out of it.

But yeah the replacement content by B was so absolutely ass and such a character assassination that I wonder if B even bothered to play through the actual content of Berry already in the game.

Well said, I should have included this information in my previous post.

I mean B wrote Berry's cock worship bad end when Hugs was still active so it's safe to say he has an idea about the character.
