Adoption is perfectly valid in reality, but this is a fantasy porn game. One for that matter has a heavy focus on pregnancy content, so it just kind of seems strange that your companion/lover who views herself as a woman and wants a kid with you won't get the "equipment" to do it. It didn't seem like she was opposed to the idea when she was trying to get rid of the cage (she seemed neutral to me, like she didn't care one way or the other, but it's been a hot minute since I played) it just seems like an odd hill to die on in a game with both the transformation and pregnancy fetishes.Adopting a child is perfectly valid.
I have to agree. What's the point of complicating shit when she can just get a vagina, even temporarily? She seemed to like being heavy with my seed. In a world like this, there's no good excuse.That's fucking lame. I don't want some random third party giving me a kid
That sounds like one kind of solution..I like mpreg ryn because she looks like a woman
At that point just bite the bullet and give her a vagina LMAO.That sounds like one kind of solution..
Playing devil's advocate, but many people today would tell you that “feeling like a woman” has no relation to and is completely divorced from the fact of having or not having a penis.I'm just gonna quote myself on this
Difference is those are same sex couples. I'm a man and Ryn sees herself as a woman, my woman. Brienne/Brint children is completely optional while with Ryn by all accounts is going to be mandatory one way or the other. Why wouldn't you give an option to male MCs that doesn't include forcing us to accept a kid with no relation to us as our offspring with her? It just sucks to be slapped with this way after I got invested with her. It's Kinu all over again.I can not claim that what you are wishing for is unreasonable. But at same time, I see Ryn situation same as I see situation with vagina champ and Brienne and dick champ with Brint. You can not have children with them, but the game should still try to make it known that they are just happy with you how you are. Which on my recent playthrough with Ryn as a dick champ, she accomplishes that. So as long as that continues to be the case, I am happy.
Funny thing is those lines are still in there despite their claims.I'm just gonna quote myself on this

Just my 2 cents but why not accomodate both options for those who are playing a fem MC? Or even better, Lumia is meant to be a god like entity why not give my champ vagina juices with sperm like properties so I can impregnate her even with vagina to vagina? Considering Ryn's dialogue and them refering to themselves as female I don't see why they wouldn't go further and have a vagina if the MC asked them to.I can not claim that what you are wishing for is unreasonable.

Because if you playing as man, and impregnate ryn, it's power FANTASY.Difference is those are same sex couples. I'm a man and Ryn sees herself as a woman, my woman.

I mean, you can make this same argument for literally anything. If something is "badly written" it doesn't matter if it's a route for a character or not.Routes which just slap a different personality with the same character are still routes. They are badly written routes, yes, but routes just the same. Which is why i said there's no guarantee having more routes equals getting character with depth. Because it's perfectly possible you'll just get a shit sandwich of a few half baked ideas to choose from.
My current favorite theory is Etheruined is Savin's self insert and as much of a cucked anal princess as he is is still fond of his penis therefore his self insert cannot have it taken away. Or he's just a lazy ass and it was something he was going to do but never got around to and now people have asked for it he won't do it just to salt mine like he did before in CoC1.Just my 2 cents but why not accomodate both options for those who are playing a fem MC?

I can only hope we don't get some IRL logic such as your genitals don't determine your gender. Espeically when we are in fantasy world where changing your genitals is just a few metres walking distance away to your nearest alchemy shop. While playing this I was under the impression that Ryn would go all the way and get a vagina especially after you can transform her to be more feminine (which Ryn is more than happy to do).
The option to keep the dick is fine too and I would like the option to do both for my different playthroughs. Basically I have seen upcoming games recently with a fraction of the money give more variety and options to their characters there is no reason not to do both especially for a major character like Ryn. I would love to hear the excuse given why they couldn't do both.
I disagree with this, because am not really a fan of extra routes specifically. That they can, like everything else, be badly written isn't the main issue. These are aforementioned dispersion of effort resulting in less content in each route, and the second, larger issue i take with it is how it effectively trivializes NPC personalities and their changes, making it relatively effortless and casual affair. It turns what should be their own characters into playdoh figurines for the player's amusement. And while i can understand intellectually the kick some people get out of this sort of power fantasies it just isn't my thing. Like the power fantasies tend to do, it cheapens the affected characters and the whole thing for me.But i still think it's worth an effort to differentiate between the two as more accurate language makes it easier to pinpoint what we dislike about CoC2 (and other things). For example, it's not different routes we dislike, it's poorly constructed ones that don't take into account the characters personality or shoehorns the authors wants (or even what they think their audience would want most) into it. It'd just be easier to call it something else though instead of saying the previous sentence every time.
I mean, especially in fantasy world where changing your genitals is just a short walk to your nearest alchemy shop (and you can sport a different set thrice a week) it kind of establishes that genitals don't in fact determine your gender. People who got their genitals swapped because of the demon interference don't immediately start thinking of themselves as being of the opposite gender, either.I can only hope we don't get some IRL logic such as your genitals don't determine your gender. Espeically when we are in fantasy world where changing your genitals is just a few metres walking distance away to your nearest alchemy shop.
No, did you read the post? Equated the Simii lore with how it appears as though Savin invented the whole "half-sexed" lore in an effort to also justify Ryn's identity issues (again, she was originally supposed to be a "trap").As for Embry, you seem to misunderstand the source of dislike for her -- which is, that character had their entire species devised specifically so she could have a present-day transition story as her (only) character arc, in a world where said transition would normally be as simple as taking a short walk to your nearest sf alchemy store. It's not really anything like Ryn who simply wants to keep a dick despite some subset of players who'd prefer her not to and grow resentful an NPC wouldn't just bend to their wishes.
Couldn't it be argued that a majority of the Winter City storyline was written with the requirement of Etheryn having a dick? Wouldn't that be a lot worse than just having a throwaway race written solely for the purpose of a transition story?As for Embry, you seem to misunderstand the source of dislike for her -- which is, that character had their entire species devised specifically so she could have a present-day transition story as her entire character arc, in a world where said transition would normally be as simple as taking a short walk to your nearest sf alchemy store.
