Others Corruption of Champions II [v0.7.33] [Savin/Salamander Studios]

[Alterism]

How is this compared to trials in tainted space?

Quick Answer:
Needs more time in the oven

Long Answer:

• Less content but that's a given, given that TiTS has been in development longer.
• The story is more "focused" in that your choices don't matter at all and player agency is a bit of a joke.
• Combat is atrocious (both being too easy and being too frequent)
• There's no character(s) or locations absolutely stacked with content/personality. Think Love Starz, Crash Landing, Fisianna, Frostwyrm, etc.
• There's next to no slowburns like the aforementioned Fisianna, Bess, technically Shekka, Crash Landing, Embry,. Paige, etc
• Khor Minos is the first location that has had anywhere near the content of the human populated areas of most planets in TiTS. Marefolk Village and Hawkethrone are character light. Centaur Village and Winter City are practically barren.
• Tone of random encounters is also a bit different. From horny mating ritual-esque natives to roaming pg-13 friendly rape gangs.

Might still be worth it for you. Though 80% of the tone of most encounters is 'free-love' and polyamory so if sharing isn't your thing, you should probably steer clear.

Actually, I don't really understand why everyone hates the kitsunes. They don't particularly bother me at all, so it makes me wonder.

Probably more of a product if you followed the game from near the beginning to be honest. Ah to hell with it. It's Friday anyways so I'll elaborate.

To go more into depth on that perspective:
You have a cute fox wife. You have a adorable daughter with your cute fox wife and many adorable children. You're built up expecting the kitsune den is going to be some wholesome adventure after you get through the rough spots and it's... not that. Literally nothing you do there matters. Nothing they do there matters. They have constant literal rape gangs. Your wife and fox children go nearly a decade without you and your fox daughter low key hates you now while you have nothing to do with any of your families lives because you're a dirty foreigner. Daughter getting married? Don't question it, you don't know anything.

The entire thing is filled with assholes and I guess 'sluts' if we take bubs word on it.

But hell. It could have been worse. Tobs isn't a bad writer, but he spent so much effort on the puddle deep culture as opposed to tangible things like why there's roaming rape gangs 3 feet from home when the foxes are allegedly supposed to be getting pretty on with the robust natives.

Alypia writes mostly romantic scenes and has drawings of their character with Etheryn made,also I don't think Alypia has a character in the game

Alypia wrote Serena that cowgirl teacher with a pretty good slowburn romance and a fleshed out NPC in general. Also let's you see brief glimpses in your peripheral of the worse side of the conditions in Khor'minos without beating you over the head. So good job to Alypia.

Also wrote that one dick girl valkyrie as well.

Savin is a rough moment, in and of himself.

The problem with Alypia's writing is that the further your Champion strays from her OC, the less it feels like your Champion is your own. She's like the other writers that tunnel vision on their OCs, except her OC happens to be the Champion.

True facts, I just wish the writers would have more fun with this project, and consider the player more, which of what i've read from the 3 big Ka honey's themselves(savin,tobs,and bub) is probably not going to happen unless they pull their heads out of their asses, Which will also probably not happen. They just seem so bothered by the idea of people even playing their game, and are excited at every turn to remind all the players this is their game and if they don't like they don't have to play. which means you have no player, which means your GAME isn't being PLAYED, and funny enough that seems like the goal. which is interesting considering dude is making like 32k on patron writing and leading a porn game, and seems to hate the people who support and enjoy his game. Now dude is still human and I believe he's entitled to his art, but the player is also entitled to their own experience, especially if its ROLE PLAYING. and shouldn't be talked down to for wanting this.

TLDR: Savin and his bois TOBS and Bubs are certified bruh moments, could just learn to have some more fun with their porn game, and not make it an expose for artsy tangents(though you can still make your porn game "deep" idaf), "reality checks", and passive-aggresive to straight up hostile behavior towards the people that let you work from home!

Note: I will say though I actually do like quin and though he can be edgy, I think he's a much better depiction of the charming ass then the one guy everyone hates

Lmao that whole post screenshot is pure autism. It's just like in real life, bro. People sometimes become methheads in real life, as well. Where are my methheads roaming the streets of Hawkethorne, dude? Realism in writing only matters insofar as suspense of disbelief is concerned. No one really cares if what you wrote is realistic, unless there's some ridiculous incongruency that takes away from the immersion.

Not to mention that just because "flawed women and men score all the time", (whatever that means) I've yet to meet a flawless person and this is such a non-statement, doesn't make anyone care to know about their exploits, unless they're super into sharing/voyeurism. Can't I just fuck a slut and never know who else they bump uglies with? At least in my mind kitsune at this point have enough red flags to indicate that's what you get with those creatures.

The only sad thing is that they overlap so heavily with the slut temple, so fuck you if you're not into turbosluts, cuz you might as well steer completely clear of those two areas they've spent so much of their effort on. As far as the Kiyoko thing goes, blame Savin for making the most basic bitch waifu bait character in existence lol. Can't really complain about players wanting to cockblock others from fucking her when you've made her that way.

You that one teacher that always asks for 5000 word essay?!!?!?

 

[acusrola]

No, you must also read about my alcoholic super cool OC who bangs all the sluts you are banging too. I want you to be the voyeur.

Why would the author give us the fucking option to turn off the content, if he is then going to go and explicitly remind us that "yes that content that you disabled IN THE GAME still happens, whether you like it or not because flawed women and flawed men." The author has to be a troll or something.

Edit: also something something author gets off on the idea that the player character has to watch (consensually or no) as their super cool OC bangs other characters.

 

[thecatcameback]

No, he says that because he seethes over the fact no one wants to read his stuff.

 

[Raf-Raf]

so I hope we don't get cucked or anything.

For that matter, why waste sex scenes on the NPC and not use them as more options for the player...

 

[A Burning Conscience]

Because none of his was written for the player, the player's roll in CoC2 is to pay money so the writers can continue producing their personal fap material while feeling smug.

 

[gurg123]

Literally, the way they talk to their whole player base, even if their sucking the writers off, is treating people like their stupid for not "understanding" or just "getting it" or of course the super cool oc "reality checking the player". If I wanted to watch other people do it there's hundreds of other games that fill that need, we don't need "gritty sluts fucking joe schmuck" if we don't want it. and that's what people do they avoid content that someone spent a lot of time on all because lack of compromise. Unless some one is playing cuck mcgee most of the time, WE'RE the ones that wanna nail chicks and sluts. not be reminded that bargain bin Bo-Rai-Cho fucks and sucks. and honestly none of this would bother anyone nor would their be any fighting if they just added opt out buttons and didn't get butthurt when people just offer criticism.

Like these guys would be way more loved by the community if they just had fun and wrote for the player more.

 

[acusrola]

That's the thing, they have such fucked mentalities that they can't see how they could ever be in the wrong. Too much circlejerking.
At this point I couldn't give a flying fuck about where the game is heading, I just come here to laugh at the dumb antics of Savin and his clown posse.

Working so much with porn can probably warp someone's worldview pretty badly.

How do you triggered "breed orcs" options after defeating Arona in Foothill zone?
It's said i need to:
-have penis (i did)
-full cum (i did for the past 6 hours back amd forth to trigger Arona encounter)
-tons of energy (don't know which stats refer to this? Ferocity? )

No matter how times i edit in save editor or encounter Arona, the options always grey out.
And yes i have tried use the search thing.

Damn, Quin got it in code. I'm still not going to save your ass if I have to restart the game bunny boy.
Recommend you go off to see Evergreen and get her various virility buffs if you don't want to save edit. I think Lycan flower also increases Libido, but you'll need to deal with the side effects (turning into a corrupt, for some reason winged, wolf man with big muscles.)

it's usually more of the thing of creator isolationism fulled by tunnel vision and profit
The crazy comic book stories like batman bangs lois lane or the last 2 starwars movies
it happens all over

The easiest way to get the breed orcs option is to milk wyvern venom and then use it and hope you get the orc warband encounter before the duration runs out. If you're under the venom's effect you'll get the breed orcs option.

Tobs isn't a bad writer

 

[Lord Kentus]

...yeah, actually, that's pretty accurate.

It makes her more akin to the CIA then say the Dalai Lama just saying

 

[Biostar]

Leave it to Tobs to write a "date" that's overly wordy and expositional, has little to actually do with you, while constantly talking for your character. The fact he then goes on to have the characters lampshade how not like a date the whole thing was just makes it worse because that means he did it deliberately. This snippet is just a perfect microcosm of his writing.

Perfect moment to share something about myself with my supposed 'date' but no no no, please exposit how you know this other unrelated character. Ugh.

 

[Raf-Raf]

Ah yeah sure man.
Tobs ain't a bad writer, he's just really good at doing bad writing.

Do I need another fucking paragraph to write again.
