Others Corruption of Champions II [v0.7.45] [Savin/Salamander Studios]

[LandBeach]

I didn't go into details over why I don't like strive (mainly because this is a porn game forum, so I didn't want to talk about frame data, block stun, neutral, set ups and all the other things that go into talking about fighting games.) So I'm not gonna get "annoyed" over you thinking I hate the newest fighting game entry. Cause that's not true. I liked Tekken 7, I liked DOA 6 (though I would say 5 was better), I obviously liked Xrd when it came out which would have been the newest entry after accent core. I like Blaz Blue Central Fiction and though I find it unlikely I would like a sequel. I don't hate a game just because its new. And I always hate this argument, as obviously people who hate newer games played the previous games. And most cases those people probably wanted a sequel. Especially if they bought the new game and played it

I tend to not like a newer game when that newer game has added features or makes changes that I don't particularly enjoy. A more detailed explanation is I don't like how Chip and Ramethal play in Strive. And just to make this clear its not because these characters are considered low tier, as Ramethal is considered a top tier by most people (myself included, unless thats changed since I've played) and that her new play style makes her a stronger character. I just don't enjoy playing her in strive. I get bored.

I don't think this game is the worst new entry in a series, I was being a tad hyperbolic as Strive isn't nearly as bad as other fighting games I dislike. Like Soul Calibur 5. Soul Calibur 6 is fine imo. Its at least better than SC5. And while I didn't enjoy SF5 I think its a fine game, I also didn't enjoy SF4. But I'm also not nearly as bothered by these games. I put them in the same catergory as Netherrealm fighting games. I just genuinely don't enjoy them and it not because of something they did that bothers me, I just don't like the play style. I tend to enjoy arcsystem games and play them exclusively.

Now I know you don't want to touch on the Bridget drama, but since I've already written a mini essay, I might as well talk about it. Less someone wants to over simplify my feelings on this as well. My issue with Bridget is the story surrounding them being trans now does not really work. And just like how I will criticize CoC2 for bad writing. I'll criticize strive for bad writing. I know FG's tend to be considered weak in that department, but it doesn't mean people can't enjoy them. Brig in Strive seems like they are regression in character, as they supposedly came to terms with their gender in XX and was looking for something to do in Accent core. It also ignores the fact that in the previous game their brother went missing. All of that feels undone or like it didn't matter in strive.

I really like FG stories. As characters like Lui Kang and Ken have some of my favorite stories in gaming. Lui Kang being a monk who believes that its possible for people to find redemption, so he spares the series villians, only for them to comeback and kill him due to his altruism, and had he simply killed them we possibly would have avoid armagedon. (Hate the new Lui Kang though cause all that personality is gone imo.) Liked Ken because he's this character trying to juggle being a fighter, while also being a responsible husband/father and running his families company. We see in SF6 that it's not going so well now, and we don't know if he's gonna get back together with his wife, since its taking place after SF3.

For all the positives Strive has, I'm more annoyed by the things that I consider flaws. (Positives of Strive I like the soundtrack. I like Baikens Story. Visually I like the graphics. Though I don't like the UI in matches. The overly big numbers, while they don't distract me, the seem a tad excessive. I'm assuming its to make it seem more impactful for when you get big combo's. I still find it excessive. Couple other postives. But for me the flaws outweigh the strengths.)

Edit: I don't dislike a game because "back in my day video games were good." Or because they made a character Trans. Other wise I'd be complaining about Testament(but Testanment changes are somewhat supported by what we already knew about the character), or I wouldn't be in a forum for a game with Femboi's, Futas, or characters who can turn themselves/the player character into another gender. I don't like Strive because I don't think its a particularly strong entry into the series. Much how I don't like this game because I think its predecessor was stronger.

Much more detailed reasons in this comment. Also actual reasons/criticism.

bruh. roman sexual culture was heavily influenced by the greeks and ancient greek mfers endorsed gay pedo shit.

a young teenager would be the "companion" of an older man. they'd have thigh sex constantly. but not anal, because that would take away the "manliness" of the younger guy thus making him unable to get bitches afterwards.

those mfers still thought they were straight as shit while giving old men thigh sex cuz those old fucks did it years ago too. they're straight now? nah.

Old man yelled on ancient greeks.

More i see of Kaz and Arona, more i wonder why Savin is so stun-locked on Cait. Here you got two dynamic characters whose relationships are affected by player imput, and there you got a stagnant pink cat whose arc consists of going from jerking off hobos in alleys to jerking off minos in the streets. Just why. Just drop the cat and go full on the feelsgood Arona, Kaz and Calise.

Because path to the mans heart lies through watching on a jerking off of a pink cat to some hobos in the back alleys, according to savin.

It is not for nothing but I find something abstract that considers that if a woman fucks a man it is gay content, I am a gay bottom and I can assure you that I do not find it exciting at all when a woman fucks me........ Well, it may be that I am a special case, but I have seen that content such as futa and women fucking men are more heterosexual and bisexual fetishes.

Agree
if only i can find some blonde chick with hoop earings who can cosplay as kassyra and fuck my ass with 2ft long horse strapon

Futa has always been aimed mainly at straight dudes tbh. Its why there are very, very few masculine futa.

> Hyper dominant
> Hyper virile
> Almost always only sexually interested in females.
> Sexually Aggressive
> I forget they have a vagina because it never gets used
> Bitch breaker
> Like holy shit that cock is a MONSTER
> Amazonian Build: super tall, muscles on muscles
> Very strong, very physically overpowering, often musky

I play futa because it caters to my fetish for extreme masculinity.

Their boobs not having hair slightly detract from the masculinity (almost all the men I know have boobs... hairy ones).
But other than that they are the masculine ideal. Squirting testosterone everywhere.

Something that is sadly in very short supply because for some reason all the games with male MC make him into a twink, a twig, a shota, a wuss, a simp, a shrimp, or some other feminized caricature

The only games which feature masculine males are all gay porn for some reason I cannot fathom.
Which I am not interested in. I don't want to have gay sex with a masculine ideal, I want to play as the masculine ideal and fuck women.

Well... actually wait, I can think of exactly one game where the MC is a masculine male that isn't gay porn. But it is on hold.

And his personality is only slightly masculine instead of being the masculine ideal

Emmmm, you know that men can be...ehhhh...how I could say it....well, hmmm....m-masculine!?

Did you read the post?

Men can and should be masculine. But how many games on F95 feature those?
By and large only gay games feature masculine males here.

The rest feature men as weak of body and weak of spirit. beanpoles if not outright twinks. short, effeminate, shy, cute... ugh.
its insufferable.

I even linked to the one and only game I found on this site which features a masculine male lead who is straight.

Why you play as masculine fute, when you could play as masculine male!?

no, it makes looking for ancient sex customs to judge shit on kind of ridiculous.

I'm as likely to believe that wanting to get fucked by a dick is straight, as I would that brojobs are.

I think you have a weird definition of masculine male if that's your takeaway. Or your sample size is simply too small.

Most futa works are futa on female, by far. It has nothing to do with the (male, in this example) viewer wanting to get fucked by a dick....unless you think anyone who watches standard male on female porn ALSO wants to get fucked by a dick.

But even futa on male stuff is often just a guy fantasy about femdom.

Snip

You're talking about games, and mostly this one in specific; I'm talking about in general.

Even in games such as this one, note there are no futa with beards, masculine facial features, no futas that choose to identify as "he" instead of "she", no futas that dress heavily in masculine wear.

They have both parts, they could just as easily present as a dude instead of a woman, but that never happens.

This flavor of futas is largely a straight guy fantasy about a dominant woman, and a guy's first thought about being dominant is... having a dick (which says something negative about how guys think I guess).

Though if you switch over to hentai and such, futa being in the sub position and being penetrated is far more common than in games, and futa being attached to body types of all sizes. How Fengames use futa isn't really reflective of all futa stuff as a whole.

 

[mrttao]

Why you play as masculine fute, when you could play as masculine male!?

Where did you get that idea from?
In a game that let me fully customize my character I play as a masculine male.

The vast majority of games don't let you customize your character though. So the choice is usually between:
1. hyper masculine futa squirting testosterone everywhere like a true alpha male
2. hyper feminized bitch boi twink that I can't believe is actually straight
3. hyper masculine gay male

Even in games such as this one, note there are no futa with beards, masculine facial features, no futas that choose to identify as "he" instead of "she", no futas that dress heavily in masculine wear.

An 8 feet tall amazon with more muscles than mister universe who can bend steel bars with their bare hands and exhibits all the male stereotype personality traits dialed up to 11 doesn't need a beard to be masculine.

Although a beard would be nice

In my admittedly limited experience, like 80% of it is futa on futa.

But even futa on male stuff is often just a guy fantasy about femdom.

I do not understand the appeal of femdom, and I definitely do not understand how finding an explicitly male sexual organ attractive has anything to do with wanting to be dominated by a woman.
