The futa bit isn't related to the game straying from CoC1 but a separate thing. To me, it felt that they appeared far more often and had far more stuff than the regular women. And most of the futa (possibly all) feel like the same which only aggravates matters.
See, that on itself wouldn't be an issue if it went with a name that kept them distinct as opposed to just claiming it as a sequel to something that doesn't really match it. That would probably solve all hostilities.
