when you're supposed to be the most important piece of the scene since you're basically the "bridge" between the character being fucked
One of the new Etheryn Arona threesomes has some of the same beats of one of the Vapula threesomes but paradoxically hits none of the highs due to the tendency to overemphasize NPC interactions in the pre and post scenes. Contrasting Vapula's threesomes (and pretty much any non CoC2 game when you get down to it) where the MC is the star of the show it's not hard to notice the differences. While the first game wasn't all highs it at least mostly (excluding like 3 scenes) did the job right.
Hearing about how good one NPC feels on their dick with another NPC isn't something you're capable of even attempting to make the player experience. Saying you're 'proud' that one NPC is fucking another NPC doesn't suddenly elicit that emotion in the viewer and it certainly does nothing for eroticism unless you're inherently already a person whose into voyeurism and sharing. There are perspectives that simply aren't going to rub off on people regardless of how hard you try to work at making it so.
So far just has scenes with other non futa females so kind of fool proof for no jealousy or bad vibes
I'll state that not all of her threesomes are that good. It's also not just her not being in scenes with other dicks though that certainly helps a bit given it takes away the other authors ability to absolutely mishandle a scene that require finesse.
In general, I believe it's more that the purpose of those scenes are done in service for the player with enough decent description to help convey the sensations and successfully carry a scene. Brienne also adores MC. Not MC and NPC #2 equally. The MC.
I mention CoC1 a lot but it's not like it was all success either in threesomes either. Of particularly infamous nature there was anything with Urta. Then there's Proto-Paige Brooke and Heckal or w/e her name was, all of Kath's threesomes, Amily x Jojo, and I feel like I'm forgetting something. Well whatever. But there were still a decent amount of good ones and generally they're more hit than miss.
On average most games do threesomes in a way where I like to see them and see more of them. Threesomes in CoC2 however I go into assuming they're going to be mediocre
...Hmm.
Ah hell. I've got time for a bit more.
Characters like cait who spread 'em while doing it and tell someone else it's free real estate, open farming tool, minimal bad feelings besides stuff like the lusamine stuff while she makes PC sit inside, or when you have multiple characters that love PC and/or each other, sister wives, harems etc, which most of the time is just vanilla with toppings and is very lovey dovey, like in nekopara etc.
Cait would be free real estate but she's now in some weird limbo where she's meant to be a lover as well as a slut and unlike Helia, actually opting to be a lover doesn't change anything. I remember reading a conversation about how somebody thought Cait Anal was exclusive with the PC but she'll get railed in the ass by Arona if you do that threesome.
As an aside, I swear everytime this archetype shows up they progressively get worse.
Free real estate is closer to Anno in TiTS where you're getting dragged into insane hot sexcapades that generally play out like a more proper fuckbuddy experience. Or maybe Vapula. There's not a scene with Vapula where she's not making the PC the star of the show as the two of you just get hot, steamy, and passionate regardless of who you're plowing at the moment
and she's not even a lover!
Though CoC get's a bit harsh for somebody like me at times, they generally end up being so hot regardless that I push beyond it.
Just with, say, bisexual women, they can be wrote getting off on each other and still having a male PC feel special, (that's the girl they like, you're the guy they like etc) but with a futa on a love interest, and swinger centric writing, it almost always feels like choosing a threesome is explicitly letting someone else bang your girl/guy while you're in the corner wanking, and you're the third wheel/someone picked up at a bar. Even then, if it was explicitly in scenarios where someones getting railed and then their partner or someone else bangs you specifically, kinda like how the liaden/az scene goes when Cait sees you, then it'd have room for competition, or possibly PC being the one called bigger and better by THEIR partner, but the only one that seems to go there is the shark harem victory scene.
I could swear I remember Brienne having a threesome with somebody (probably Azzyran) where she just passionately starts making out with her and paying the PC no mind while you "tussle an ear" or some similarly stupid phrase. It's possible to just muck up two women as well as it turns out.
I remember reading this:
and thinking, "Man that's a dumb stance. It's not the gender that's an issue which itself only makes it easier for the author to not fuck everything up."
As your previous examples mentioned the typical harem anime/game has the one character that is the center of the world. You're not the center if you're sharing the love equally. A tie for first place wouldn't sell the genre.
And I imagine B must have discovered this same conclusion given that the intro to the phoenix hellhound threesome was reworked so you don't just waltz into the cave to them fucking each other with no input.
Although... "swinger centric writing" is a good phrase.
Honestly I don't know why I'm wasting my energy talking about it.
This isn't much of a fun topic.
The reasons things are as they are is because this is the project leads fetish.
And you can tell by his general ire towards Brienne that this is exactly how things are meant to be.
That's basically all it comes down to.
