Ah, I guess that's better than nothing, besides that I feel like the main character has less impact in this game like he's nothing more but an npc.
Well, you're not wrong. Recently they actually started adding commissioned OCs. So anybody can fork over a stack of cash to get their fursona into COC2 now.
And you the player is here to marvel that them, not to do silly stuff like: play the game.

I stopped playing this game for a while but i've been seeing the reviews, so Kinu just suddenly gets arranged by an asshole who wants to kill us?
To be fair he is tasked with protecting the den and we kind of do break in so I'd imagine us just being let roam the den freely afterwards is like salt in the wound.

I imagine it'd be like having a guy break into your work place only to see the fucker working there the next day.

Still, the main character should have a say in their relationship, isn't both parent's opinions more important? Especially after basing Kitsune society on old Japanese culture. I find it so weird that apparent there's a scene where you play as your daughter getting her back blown out by the very same dude.

HaHaHa.......No
if you give any sort of opinion they say(even your wife) you are not a fox so none of your business. the time skip esentially makes you a dead beat dad who left his family for +18 years. apparently writers were so butt hurt because of coc1 that they decided to ruin one of the most wholesome stories in the game

Find "\"timestamp\" the number next to it is your time, time is stored as minutes (1440 minutes = 1 day, 60 minutes = 1 hour, you get the gist.), here's an example file, going by the name it should be on day 694 but I set the timestamp to 1440 so the file should load with you on day 1 at 00:00.
thanks again. it works but events which rely on time seem to become janky, like calise who I could sleep with before but now is wounded again

do you know anyway to restart quests like house brints quest? not gonna ruin my main save, just wish I could play some quests again without restarting the game

It's kind of entertaining to realise that allowing commissioned characters has to be making some of the writers seethe.

"I write my characters the way I write them because fuck the power fantasy of the player, you power-fantasying player bastard with main character syndrome" meanwhile: people actually paying money to get exactly that.

It's really symbolic of how instead of having a single, concrete vision that people writing for the game were required to subscribe to, the "oh we need to keep the project going " mission creep has created an irrecoverable mess of clashing directions that struggles to satisfy anybody.

And as someone who's worked in the public service on controversial political topics believe me when I say I know this when I see it lmao.

Huh, hadn’t thought of that. I mean, I guess it’s obvious in hindsight, but it also isn’t even exclusive to commissioned characters (I don’t think there’s even that many?)

I’d say it’s more prevalent with writers jamming their super–special OCs in who have some kind of magical fuckery that the player can’t get because… because they said so, ok? Bubblelord was especially guilty of that, but I think it’s definitely happened several other times. Skow, Tons, and Gardeford all have characters tied to inexplicably high-stakes quests, and from what I hear, the black knight has a bit of that going on too. Hell, community writers too; just look at Strawberry Tea’s “muh thousand person harem” nonsense for Valencia’s mom.

I can’t help but wonder how bad things are gonna get with how bad they already are, tbh.

It's a failure of project management tbh. No matter how good your cause or goal, or how passionate you are - you gotta reign that in or your result will suck. See Cyberpunk 2077 - the original release had bad project management written all over it. CDPR fixed it, but it takes the ability to critically reflect and realise you messed up - that's not happening here lmao.

This game has ALWAYS allowed commissions. Just like TiTs and CoC1

They literally have a whole forum just for commissions.

Alypia and B and Moira and several others work off commissions. Even Wsan just did a commission. Pretty sure almost every writer started out as a commissioned writer.

This isn't new.

I could point out that TiTs and CoC1 aren't as affected by the decision to be anti-power fantasy (and thus reducing the philosophical conflict behind the point I was making), but I think it's less work for me and funnier for everyone else to just say:

Me: "I think this is a bad idea because I think it contributes to long term problems that aren't something you can overcome because of the conflict it creates. It is also another sign of bad overall project management and direction leading to all the conflicting narrative beats highlighted by the other poster who replied to my thoughts."

You: "This isn't new".

Yeah I mean thats half my point.
