Did someone just say they want to talk about why Tobs sucks?!? Heh just kidding... Mostly.
Eh, that might be fine. I could see them adding a "gossip about this specific thing” selector. Her conversations are divided into six topics, and being able to pick those sic specifically would both avoid that problem and let people who want to see those scenes get to them faster. Win-win.
I've done all of her content, and read the easily findable plans for her future on the forums.
Tacit (her author) has a forum for her expansion pack with her family in which it's made pretty clear that the "cheating fantasy" is a fantasy, and that her husband is 100% aware of the whole thing.
I don't know why you'd suggest I'm "assuming I'm right".
You're both extrapolating things I never said, and misunderstanding the conversation.
I never said I like the scene. I also am not trying to convince anyone to like it...just that it isn't NTR. This conversation is about whether or not NTR exists in the game as is. I'm also not "talking down" to anyone, we're having what was(until now) a fairly polite discussion.
Again, misreading the conversation.
And now you're on the complete opposite side of where I'm at. This conversation started out talking about why there's NOT interference in established relationships (Gweyr and Garth), and I'm pretty firmly on the side that its better that way. My comments about liking NPC-NPC stuff were just an example of things I know aren't going to happen.
"Having to?"
I'm sorry, was this conversation blocking the normal progression of this thread? Should we get back to talking about why Tobs sucks, or was there some other important topic that this conversation getting in the way of?
No idea.
I have max posts per page, so we're on 149.
...why doesn't everyone have max posts per page?

Hmm, not sure where Tacit has "made it clear" that it's a "fantasy". I've read the document for her, and that's not implied / mentioned anywhere in the document, and I've read the initial posts Tacit made about her (not reflected there either).Skandranon said:I've done all of her content, and read the easily findable plans for her future on the forums.

And at that point, one would just be debating semantics.Not only is it possible for you as the player to pretend, it's exactly what Beatrice is doing deliberately. Because while her heart belongs to one (doge)man, she still cares deeply about Steele Junior and their wishes. So as long as you don't mention your affair or ask one of the Reasners outright, you get to enjoy the 'cheating' fantasy. Additionally, my reading of the situations involves both Traven and Bea getting at least a little bit of a kick out of such arrangement.
I think you're misunderstanding. I'm not talking about any specific scenes when I reference this. I'm talking in a generalized sense (the conversation themes revolving around NPC/NPC content in general vs PC/NPC content).Skandranon said:You're both extrapolating things I never said, and misunderstanding the conversation.

Okay.Skandranon said:No idea.

...why doesn't everyone have max posts per page?
Okay. It's fine if you want to view it that way.It's like two lines about a place we can't visit that have next to no implications over the story as a whole, it's minor trivia.
I don't quite get how there are multiple ways to interpret "pretending".And at that point, one would just be debating semantics.
And I'm saying nothing you're saying affects the actual conversation going on.I think you're misunderstanding. I'm not talking about any specific scenes when I reference this. I'm talking in a generalized sense (the conversation themes revolving around NPC/NPC content in general vs PC/NPC content).
You appear to have a different perspective on NPC/NPC content, and seem to not like PC/NPC content as much, something you literally said yourself. And so, you're replying to people who seemingly do not like NPC/NPC content (and seemingly like PC/NPC content), and debating labels on such content, without recognizing the biases at play, you seemingly being biased toward such content, and the people you're replying to seemingly being biased against such content.
That's the point I was making. In a generalized sense it seems that the conversation is reflecting a difference in opinion about the subject at hand. However, the opinions appear to be used as though they're fact, without accounting for differences in perspectives.
I'm not saying that that can't be done, but I don't see a conclusion being drawn from such conversations that are heavily opinion based, and thus the conversation seems like it will continue to spiral ad infinitum. At that point, it might be easier to conclude the differences of opinion and move on? Although, I'm not saying one has to.
I just realized...you're talking about in April?! Two months ago?Okay.
Just found it odd that you didn't reply to the post I made in reply to you, which contained a similar theme to this discussion.
Okay.I don't quite get how there are multiple ways to interpret "pretending".
Her and her husband have an open relationship, and she's pretending to be secretly cheating on her husband for your fantasy.
That's it.
And I'm saying nothing you're saying affects the actual conversation going on.
We were discussing the reasoning behind NTR in the wolves' relationship based on whether or not NTR is in the game. That's what this whole conversation was about. It is not at all about "PC/NPC vs NPC/NPC content". It's about whether or not certain content is or isn't already in the game as a basis for adding more of it. It's certainly not affected by whether or not I like the content in question (I don't; Bubbles' writing doesn't work for me).
Heck, when I say NPC/NPC content, I mean named NPCs. I like seeing multiple characters with interesting personalities/quirks/fetishes in a sex scene interacting with each other more than just one. The scene we're talking about doesn't even qualify.
I just realized...you're talking about in April?! Two months ago?
I don't remember anything I typed that far back.
Though I do note, looking at it, that I was both responding to a completely different person, and you don't seem to actually have asked a question.
So that scene to me feels less like "OMG, my champion got cucked by a companion"
I am not going to deny that the Lusamine Cuck scene is trying to be some form of NTR
My hate for Cait stems from her butting into literally anything, like bro please let me have a moment with this person. Like not even necessarily sex, but like Brienne/Brint pregnancy where she butts in for no reason. LikeI get that Cait gets a lot of hate, but honestly, her being the first companion sort of screams that "this is the game where everyone fucks and 99% of the time it has no consequences and is just for fun".
There are a couple simple solutions for that, like just add a flag to each character "Do you want this character to be involved with other people?" unless it's specifically tied to their character like Dom Arona. Pretty sure Berwyn gets this, as Cait isn't involved unless you suggest Cait as a hole for him to use.Is CoC2 a fuck-fest where proper monogamy relationships cannot exist, or an actual romantic semi-VN where any character getting any sexual encounters without your permission should not be allowed?
Keyword is "trying". It's called Cuck in files and it specifically mentions you not being able to do anything like it's the selling point, so I'd be a fool to deny that whoever wrote this scene tried going for it. But unless you have formed some special attachment to Lusamine, there aren't any major NTR points present. The only real NTR thing that happens is that you get cockblocked and if you go with the crowd you are prevented from doing anything.
Yeah, I can get where you are coming from. I like Cait, but I can see how much she get annoying if you don't. It feels like the issue of her and Brint being probably one of the most common team composition (since they are the starter companions). It feels like she, Ryn and Brint are the only companions that have major relevance to the main storyline (Prologue, Winter City, KM), so they have the most interactions between each-other, despite the fact that there are a bunch of other party members who you've discovered by sidetracking.About the pink slut
This is why I sort of feel that with multiple writers there are cases of identity crisis, where some scenes can be considered NTR by one person and won't by another because they have a very different perspective on the game and writers sometimes have entire unique systems for their characters. So sometimes characters are prevented from the corruption nature of the game (aka everyone are horny), sometimes not (so your waifu suddenly gets fucked by other characters and you can't do shit about it because the writer didn't even think you'd care about it).Or write some NPCs to have romance paths where MC can preclude them from sex other than the MC. People like to be The Fucker, who FUCKS but you also want a sweet someone to go home to. I think it's more people have developed attachments for a character and would like to not share specifically them, which is understandable.
SHAT AP!!!!!!!!!and that kicking to the curb a stupid evil - also stupid asshole - former sex cultist
A man of culture as well, I see.
First thanks to everyone who participated and I think this game is better than CoC for M/M content specifically so credit where credit is due for that to the CoC 2 team.I'm the worst to ask with male characters, because I'd take any (except C as I don't understand what you mean, but more Nakano is a no). UB if it's handled like all other UB and he blackmails the PC (with the added route of turning the tables for those that desire it) is good, more traps (maybe some that aren't dominant with their dicks free? Because you get Ryn and Wyn, one tops and one literally can't), and more muscles obviously. Not just because an adventurer would probably have some sort of muscle, but because if I can get with a triple H-cup cowgirl, I want to also be able to get with the muscle-bound wolfman. But noooo, he doesn't like men lmao
Honestly, they should lean into what they're trying to force with what they're saying about Brint/Brienne. You want PC corrupting NPCs? Write it as such. Let me corrupt Brint to be a subby muscle guy, or smooth away those muscles so he's a little subby cowboi. Let me overdrive his libido and tap into his bestial rage. Turn him from a cool dudebro, to someone actually corrupt. Making the corruption just being female feels... a wee bit sexist. Let me corrupt Garret to wanna bang me, forcing him to be into something that he normally wouldn't have been. Let me be corrupted by a blackmailer, as cliche as it is. Don't just tick up my score for having sex with a corrupted individual, make it meaningful.
These are both excellent ideas, and I especially applaud the wholesomeness of turning the UB on its head.I am replying to you Tau specifically just to clear up what I meant with Nakano. I meant in terms of looks not personality when it comes to personality I think I can agree with the others of having a more monogamous less slutty male and very devoted to the MC.
Some interesting ideas about UB category I also do agree especially in hentai the blackmail route is over used it will need a little extra spice to make it stand out. An alternative would be a more wholesome route where a low confidence UB is made into a confident studly boy toy as you put his giant tool to use and he becomes more confident and experienced in bed.
Well, I can't imagine that there is literally only ONE person in the whole playerbase who prefers NPCxNPC content. Tobs would certainly prefer we were just a floating eye within the Kitsune Den to witness but not interrupt his magnum opus. I would question why they would choose a game that is markedly not that but who am I to tell people what they can do with their time?I'm curious what goes on in the writer's head when they decide to sit down and write this stuff. What are they thinking that compels them to put this kind of content in the game? Then again, maybe they're just thinking with their dicks.
You're overthinking it, simply. It's two fold; first, getting a rib on the people who get real mad about this sort of thing, and given the venn diagram overlaps pretty closely with the people who demand/suggest being able to kill NPCs they don't like like psychopaths it's a pretty easy W for a giggle and a couple of hours work. Second, and the real thing, it's easier to write. Faceless cardboard cutout PC that could be any number of things is exhausting to do, while in contrast two characters who are, well, characters, is incredibly refreshing and basically writes itself.I'm curious what goes on in the writer's head when they decide to sit down and write this stuff. What are they thinking that compels them to put this kind of content in the game? Then again, maybe they're just thinking with their dicks.
