Others Corruption of Champions II [v0.7.32] [Savin/Salamander Studios]

[menatv]

I did find another place where corruption does change things a bit.

When you're at 100 (Demonic) Corruption, when you decline to have sex with the Painted Demons, they won't attack you. They will leave you and your party alone.

That's about the biggest difference in corruption that I've seen in the game to this point.

much obliged!
btw any opinion on what class is the "strongest" for the mc? I usually go mage classes either for aoe gameplay/skills usually given to them or for lore reasons.

Thief is probably the strongest, but equipment and stat distribution are way more important than class.

Also a very valid point. You know I kinda wish there was more interaction with some of your kids. I know that'd be a massive amount of work even with the pregnancy options so far but even the haroy lady visiting you at night is kinda cute. Makes me wish you could go visit and spend some real time with the kid and I don't even particularly like her.

Rags too. It's really sad that she send your kid back to Kervus island while Hretha and Infrith send their kids to Hawethorne when she's the one who most wants to be a part of their life. She's one of the closest I've found in the game to a stable likeable partner too so it'd be amazing to really get to raise the little spratling with her into a nice big strong orc.

That said I feel like small things could go a long way to making the game emotionally deeper. Like having the option to cure Hretha's blindness or Zo's inability to speak. I assume we'll get some when we finish the Gweyr quest and she reunites with her famjam but she's not really 'yours' since she's taken and has a family and all that and you're probably doing Garth and the kids more of a favour than her because you know them better.

I feel like those smallish, well, maybe not always so small parts could go a long way to getting a deeper connection to the game and characters for those that are into that. I think that might be one place where Kiyoko really outshines all the other CoC2 characters in that there's enough content that you get an actual relationship with her. Now how nice that relationship is on the other hand is very debatable, but it is still a relationship of sorts even if it's maddeningly lopsided and out of your control. Having an actual relationship with characters like Rags, Hretha, Hethia, Garret, Elyon, Atani, Naiyana, Eddesari, Wredi, Valencia, shit Valencia could even become a companion, she's just out there doing mercenary shit and waiting for you in the valley.

Point is having some real bonding time would go a long way to making the game more memorable and enjoyable I think, not that it's super boring at the moment. I'd just like to explore some of the fringe relationships more since I like them more than most of the companions. I wanna raise kids with one of my orc girlfriends, or the elven priestess. Take my half-manticore girl out on adventures and help her become a real badass. Get into a meaningful relationship with a wise older maremilf. Even help a shy drider girl set up a textile shop or something in Hawkethorne and meet the queen she wants to so badly. I know that's a crazy amount of work but feels like it would do a lot for the game to me.

I am aware that I've probably missed a lot of other characters that people like more than those I've listed but they were just what I thought of off the top of my head for examples. Same rules go for any characters that are likeable but don't have that much interaction. Shit Azzyran is a certified cutie and a companion and even she needs more cause I can't get enough. Something about innocent shy-ish girls who are build to be bad and really want you under that innocence smh.

Frankly, no.

I really hope we don't get any more kid interactions if they're just gonna end up being written like Kinu.

A main part of the problem comes from the fact that many of the writers see your children in-game as an opportunity to write their own OCs into the game.

That and I doubt any of the writers actually ever even interacted with children. Thus they have no idea how to write such a relationship.

The nursery is a handwave to bypass writing kids and a smart one at that. The only moron who was arrogant enough to think he could write a proper parent/child relationship was Tobs and he spectacularly fucked it up.

I'm all for more casual talks and progress with the actual romantic relationships of the game though.

So I've been going through some of the content I missed from past updates., and I'm on the bunny girl in Harvest Valley right now. Who the fuck okayed the term "meanie-pantses" being used in one of her scenes?

Lmao. There's a lot of really, really cringe phrases in the game. I still can't believe Tobs thought "Baby bag" was a good idea for womb.

I doubt Savin even reviews submissions from the usual writers anymore, there have been so many scenes with this nonsensical terminology, and even some with first grade grammatical errors.

 

[sadbruh]

IDK if it has been asked before but is there a gallery unlock?

 

[Noone202]

Accidentally delete my save and now I can't unlock the wayfort teleport area. Is it a bug?

Thief is probably the strongest, but equipment and stat distribution are way more important than class.

Damage wise i'd say thief/soldier so long they have Betsy Mauler.
Magic Wise i'd say White Mage because of survibability it brings to the party and itself being a sort of tanky mage that hits hard and takes a beating without so much as a sweat.
Charmers are OP in all but like...2-3 encounters where teasing isn't an option? just block and use summons in those cases.

If you don't mind a horrible early game, and being able to only work with 3 companions (2 because Quins is the worst at it) Charmer is the best class in the game. It was so good you could actually cheese the Kasyrra fight and they had to rework a game mechanic as a result. Heck the fact it doesn't work on animals isn't even a problem considering there's only two repeatable animal encounters and only a handful of bosses carry wargs

I usually prefer dual short swords, eviscerate can take out most single encounters enemies in it's one use, and for multi encounters it can take out one enemy and make the others miss most of the time due to he evasion it gives.

so the black magician is weak?

 

[destroyerofassholes]

so the black magician is weak?

Pretty much, yeah. It does seem like the weakest class.

But it's a porn game and if you wanna play it, just do it. I've always played black mage and it's relatively easy to kill shit even on Hard, but nobody plays this game for the combat.

 

[MogwaiKupo]

so the black magician is weak?

It was supposed to be based around summons but those were criminally weak during launch. We're slowly getting more but time will only tell if it brings up the class. The problem with the black mage is you're probably thinking of it like Final Fantasy's version where there your magic nuke. Here unless you do grease+fireball they're not anything special. Heck the white mage and Charmer gets just as many reliable offensive spells as they do.The black mage's ultimate is pure utility unless you fight a ghost. Add to that that they are pretty squishy and you have a recipe for disaster.

The fan art for this is pretty cool, see turbo slut rap battle

Which writers?

 

[NODOGAN]

so the black magician is weak?

Pretty much, i'd put it right there with the Thief in my bottom tier, Whitemage pretty much does everything the Blackmage can while also having way higher survivability and passively making the party not suck so much ass.
Hell i literaly made a full on support whitemage with 17 willpower, 17 toughness and 20 presence (changed class, started as charmer, wanted that +40 leadership to make the party hit harder) and even then his Celestial Smite just crushed anything in his path.

Oh yeah - i like the charmer high crit build...

I was thinking more of the child as an extension of your relationship with whoever and not a story about said child like Kinu. The point of the scenes being that you're raising the child with your partner till they're like maybe 12 or so and then they can get relegated to chilling somewhere in hawkethorne with 3-5 repeatable lines.

I agree that the whole Kinu debacle is a mess and I 100% don't want a child scene where the kid becomes the MC and you just sit there dealing with it. More along the line of where Zhara brings your child to Hawlethorne at night and you get to spend some time with the fluffball. I thought it was kinda cute and I felt bad that someone like Ragnild who I actually like and who wants to be there to raise her child can't. It would be heartwarming if you had some scenes where you two are spending time with the kid or kids as a happy family but that's just me.

It's weird to me how Hretha and Infrith both send their kids to Hawkethorne but Rags ships hers back to the tribe but that being said the other mini-quests I mentioned would probably be more fun. The stuff like getting Hretha her sight back, or Zo her speech, or making babies with Naiyana or something.

Hello, sorry, I know that maybe this is not a topic that should be asked here but I already asked about the forum of that game but I wrote it wrong and it was not understood and I am ashamed to ask again but they will know just in case if it is possible to play TiTS in chrome as you can CoC2 is that I would like to be able to translate it with the google translator
