I haven't been here super long, but I can give you a sparknotes version:This is the first post I've ever made on this site, I barely (if ever) post anywhere but I was so intrigued I just had to ask.
Is there anyone here who's been around for a while in this thread? And if so, I'd like to know why exactly there is contention around the game's writers. I've given the conversation a cursive glance and don't fully understand it, so I'd greatly appreciate if someone experienced could outline why there's hate/animosity/annoyance with some of the writers.
Mainly in regards to Savin? Either way, I've "played" CoC2 for a decent amount of time but haven't touched it in a while, but I don't remember there being anything particularly egregious with the writing. Although I'm not a writer. I enjoyed Zo though.
- TOBS' writing is complete shit yet he acts like he's the second coming of GRRM. The vast majority of his content(Kitsune Den and Gweyr's quest) are completely off when it comes to tone/relevance to existing content. He is hypocritical, rude, and dismissive towards valid criticism, even when said criticism is being generally agreed upon. He made Kinu(and by association Kiyoko) a horribly unlikable mess just because some person wanted incest content. He now commissions art of her being fucked by what I assume is his self-insert character and parades that around out of spite as if that's something to be proud of. He also goes on record saying people can't put non-erotic submissions into the game yet he writes text walls about things that don't even pertain to your character.
- I forget the exact words but Savin insulted everybody that uses this board, regardless of people like Skandranon(a person who used to regularly defend the game) existing. It's also very apparent that Savin does not know how to properly run the project when you think about needless content inflation, how he conducts himself and his peers on discord/forums, him going behind another writer's back to commission a rape scene of their beloved companion and putting it into the game, arguably unjustly kicking a writer from the project, not making sure there's a cohesive style or theme to the game, etc. I'm sure there's a lot more I'm missing with him but that's all that immediately comes to mind.
- Bubblelord is essentially TOBS but somehow way worse. There were quite a few screenshots of how he acted in the FenForums posted a while back, maybe you can find them. I replied to it, but maybe the mods nuked that part of the thread, I'm not sure.
Honestly besides my own, I haven't even seen many rants these days. Guess people just gave up when it comes to shitting on the game, which I don't blame 'em for.Most of the rants here are in good fun, exaggerated because it's fun to rant.
Pretty much this. The game had amazing potential, more than enough to be better than both TiTS and CoC1. They just fucked it up in so many countless ways. Really might've even been one of my favorite pieces of media but instead we just got...this.Personally I love the idea of what the game could have been but not what CuckCo did with it. And Coc1 is objectively better just because player agency.
