Others Corruption of Champions II [v0.7.37] [Savin/Salamander Studios]

[MoneyMan181]

I just want a good "elder sister"-like dom character. Brienne does it with low strength when you try to overpower her but options are getting pegged and beaten up by arona (which has it's place) and the rare npc thats ok, but I dunno, wish a party member had been something like briennes attitude but instead of "please help me" it was her dragging you up the stairs or pushing you against the wall, or like a dom arona that wasn't directly hard abuse dom

Well Nihara is supposed to fill that niche. The goo-cat girl that nobody seems to remember exists. And that's because she's written by TOBS and has his usual bullshit of not actually sexy writing. I think TOBS even wrote she feels like an elder sister. Fucking crying shame he wrote her, because she has an amazon position scene and I can excuse a LOT of things when you've got something like that on a girl. But TOBS writing just aint it, man. Idk how he makes a character from an archetype I'm in love with and then manages to make me not enjoy it at all.

There really is a ridiculously small amount of just straight up femdom content. The only other character that comes to mind is the new cow lady in the KM baths which is nice, but I'd still prefer something that didn't feel so... impersonal. Like you show up there to be her toy like it's some kind of business transaction, just kinda rubs me the wrong way. Such a shame that almost any content where the PC gets dommed it has to involve dicks. I REALLY wish Brienne had a sort of playful caring dom side to her since it'd fit so well with her character design but we can't have everything I guess.

There really is a ridiculously small amount of just straight up femdom content.

There's very little of any of the fetish content that isn't pregnancy or futa (people will argue about the amount of NTR).
As an exercise I went over the tags the game has listed here (which obviously aren't 100% accurate) and in most cases it's just one or two NPC's or scenes for each.
Tentacle? Alruane and one Cait dream sequence.
Monster? No, no none humanoid sex content (unless you count centaurs and that one snake? They're still mostly human). Monster girl yes.
BDSM? Barely, there's some sub/dom play with the two human futa's (the Amazonian and the one in frosthound) the rest is just abusive sex scenes.
Femdom? Excluding the futa content then you've got Hellhound and little else. I don't really count women taking the lead in a scene as "Dominating" you.
Corruption? There's the hive and I think two NPC's you can allow to become corrupted. Being corrupt yourself doesn't mean anything.
Sissification? No, Ryn was already like that, there is no emasculation content.
Trap? Berwyn maybe? But I thought Trap content meant male pretending to be and looking female.

In short, save for breeding and dick-girls, there's maybe one or two NPC's or repeatable scenes that contain a fetish, but that's like calling wine fruit juice because it contains grapes.

There's the Drider queen. IDK if you counted that under anything.

It's not in the tags, but one of the fetishes people have mentioned is Ovi, and the two driders and the hornets make up all of that. So yes, they provide some of a fetish, but it's just one or two NPC's for each fetish, most of whom are post battle scenes so not really characters.

No, I meant for femdom content, though in retrospect I assume you must have been talking about "vanilla" femdom, so that wouldn't count.

Ah, I guess so. But also probably a lot of this will come down to personal definitions of these fetishes. Point conceded to you on her being Femdom.

See, I don't get this. To me, it seems like you're defaulting anyone who doesn't explicitly say otherwise to instantly monogamous and being disappointed when they aren't.

Atugia isn't really super into you. She's not your girlfriend, as far as I know she never says she loves you, you and her don't really establish as of yet any deeper connection than having sex and being friendly with each other...and everyone else in your party meets those same qualifications.

Azzy's entire introduction establishes that she's part of a hive, and she feels cut off when she's not around large amounts of people. The whole reason she latches onto you in the first place is because she's desperate for any kind of companionship since she can't be near everyone in her hive.

Imo, it's easier and makes more sense in the setting that''s been established to assume everyone is down for casual sex with different partners as the default and not the other way around. The people who aren't generally explicitly say so, like Brienne and Kiyoko.

The very first character in the game, Cait, comes with a massive detailed in depth disclaimer that she is going to sleep around and won't do monogamy because she is a temple whore.
Not "everyone in the world fucks everyone", but "this specific primary NPC is a rare exception"

Thus we are immediately informed that Cait is for Cucks in a way that implies that most NPCs are not that way.
Moreover there is the implication that we will be explicitly warned about it in advance. Thus people get blindsided when it turns out that this was all a lie and in fact all the characters in the game are that way, and the Cait disclaimer is a joke on the player.

CoC2 is suffering from a classic "designed by committee" / "too many cooks spoil the broth" syndrome.
well, that and also the devs throw tantrums and "punish" the players when people argue with them on discord. Or punish each other via shitting on each other's characters. (see Brienne NTR)

 

[mrttao]

Aileh had zero family content on release. Nothing suggesting it or pointing towards it. For a long time, she was just a demon you could bang that hung out in the Wayfort. "Wholesome family content" got added in Mayternity. Out of the blue, for no reason at all.

But noone's complaining out that despite being "out of the blue".

1. You yourself called it wholesome, obviously there will be less backlash on adding "wholesome" content to a character compared to adding a niche, extreme, highly polarizing fetish.

"suddenly out of nowhere, scat and snuff was added" - will get backlash
"suddenly out of nowhere, hand holding was added" - is fine.
And that is a good thing. I should not have to explain such basic "how to human 101" to a real living human being.

2. was there any indication that Aileh is supposed to be an NTR only character? Because the complaint was not merely "content came out of the blue", but rather "content came out of the blue and drastically altered a character to go against their initial premise"

 

[undyingrevenant]

well, putting aside all the phantom pain



for the time being, what's everyones favorite class? i've experimented with all of them but not sure which i really prefer. tanks are always fun to see how tanky you can get, especially with the new-ish combat changes. aoe nuke assassins or mages are pretty good. white mage seems like the safest bet however because if you replicate caits starting set, ie one heal and the rest damage with stuff like blinds or ailments, you seem to be able to have the most party variety and swapping abilities is useful for them to be able to change between damage elements or more healing etc. generally healer companions have dps kits so you dont step on many toes, seems to have the best potential on higher difficulties, and their passive to heal themselves while healing anyone else is simple but imo one of the strongest.

 

[liinh]

gonna pop in real quick to ask smth. ik u can marry some characters (uhh ahmri for example?) who all can you marry? or atleast like.. seriously date? i've been poking around the wiki but a lot of it seems outdated.

To expand about this a bit.

Brianne: fan favorite NPC waifu.
WSan: writer who wrote Brianne.
Savin: lead dev
Tobs: another author.

> Tobs: "hey wsan, I want to write a relatively wholesome scene for Brienne"
> Wsan: "no, I want to be the only one writing her"
> Tobs: *flips his shit at being told no*
> Tobs: *secretely writes completely different scenes for Brienne than what he originally asked to do, degrading NTR scenes designed to ruin her. Hides it from Wsan, it gets quietly merged into the game by Savin*
> months go by
> Wsan gets complaints about the sudden tone shift for Brienne.
> Wsan deeply disturbed, exposes the whole thing. Demoralized, not sure what to do.
> Wsan says its too late to remove the scenes and after consideration he decided to not quit.
> Wsan asks savin to lock Brienne so only he can write new scenes for her
> Savin: Hey wsan buddy, can I get an exception to the lock. I want to write a scene for Brienna.
> Wsan: No, I want to be her sole writer
> Savin: Throws a public tantrum, explicitly stating it is over that refusal, saying Brienne is "dead to him".

This game development team is extremely dysfunctional and toxic.
And it perfectly explains why we are seeing the issues we are seeing with the game.
The writers are literally sabotaging each other over the slightest slights

You can marry Ahmri, Kiyoko, and Livrea (bard in Khor'minos), with Brint/Brienne being in the works IIRC.

For "date seriously", it depends on what would satisfy you: I'd say Aileh might be the closest to what I think you might be looking for, but there are a bunch of other characters who could fit that description. You can become Etheryn's consort, you can get Rindo to be your concubine, you can get pretty close to Cait (though she still sleeps around, of course)… Byvernia's content seems to be leading up to you confessing to her (not implemented yet).

Brienne, Senja, Valencia, Atani, Ahmri, Etheryn, Kiyoko, Aileh, Kasyrra, Drifa, Ragnild, Brienne's sister and mom(planned), Serena(she has feelings for you but it's never given a label). All of them have romance though the degree varies to each character. I'm not sure about any male characters since I don't interact with that.

Personally I think Valencia and Rags have the best romance because they feel pretty organic and it actually takes time to get to know them and get close to them. You'd think from a text-only porn game, most romances would seem natural but a lot of them just have the girl love you out of nowhere. Brienne, Kiyoko, Atani, Ahmri, and Kas all just profess their love to you out of the blue, it's pretty jarring.

I really enjoy my tanky spellblade, and thief dual wielder. The totally not a lightsaber paired with the sacred gladius does a unholy amount of holy damage, especially if you have the holy damage buff spell as well.

In the least tarded timeline Tobs is really just a consultant coming up with character concepts and/or has his work heavily edited to cut out the superflous shit.

Didn't even know about this character because i stopped engaging his content at around wolfmom, but i can believe the idea was good. Ragni is cool too, but then she gets lost in the essay. Kinu and Rindo even, but pseudo intellectual shit. Gweyr and Komari, born dead, but that's because instead of going for the married wolfmilf or the prim gilf-in-charge, we go for nonsensical adventure->family reunion and Miko and Mai (generic girl #23948230 and #23948231). Because muh fantasy novel. Like you said, worst thing happening to those characters is that it's Tobs writing them.

Three, Aileh, Kiyoko and Zo.
But I think I'm the only one who remembers Zo exists, and that's just because she's Brooke 3.0 and I liked Brooke.

The endless blocks of prose just killed her for me. Mute is fine, but give her sign language or smth to simulate dialogue. Not even a dig, that shit just gets tedious and doesn't sell the budding relationship at all.

 

[Jötunn123]

Brienne (and arona but that's not important) is my fav companion but I will admit that her feelings for the Player character make zero sense, especially when you turn Brint instantly into her after getting him as a companion.

 

[liinh]

ohhh i am excited for drifa marriage.. glad that'll be a thing. she's so pretty. hoping they'll eventually add some dude marriage in just to make things a bit even.

I mainly played white or black mage. This is mainly because more than half your party options are physical attackers. My white mage is probably the one I played the most only because I almost never use Cait, as her and Quin are the least interesting characters to me and I try to have a somewhat balanced team. Also if you play white mage all you really have to do is support Brint/Brienne and they can do enough damage to beat most fights. My team was usually Brin and Berry or Atugia and Etheryn. Everyone else chilled at the frost hound as Arona is essentially Brint 2.0 with a less likeable personality as far as I can tell. I will admit Arona's content has gotten better over time, but I still prefer Brin over her. I don't care about the bird chick. Kiyoko didn't really seem better than Berry, but I've been using her more often since he's gone now. And I don't think I've ever used Quin in battle. I heard Azzy could be as tanky as Atugia. But, I prefer redheads over blondes.

But honestly the combat system in this game is pretty garbage imo. I don't really have to consider my builds to often. As the game doesn't have to many things to consider. The main debuff I see is disarming, which usually doesn't matter if you're a mage. Occasionally you'll run into someone who will try and seduce you, but that's it. And when you play on the higher difficulties the difficulty seems really artificial. I honestly think TiTs has the best balanced combat of the series, while still being pretty simple. And CoC1 has the most freedom, but because of that freedom some areas can be a pain in the ass as certain builds might not work to well. But, once you get late game in CoC1 it becomes a power fantasy with you bullying most enemies.

Brienne (and arona but that's not important) is my fav companion

Going back a few posts, would honestly trust Wsan with a Brienne/subArona threesome, 'cause he gets where the focus should be hence his threesomes for both characters being honestly pretty great, but then again you throw domArona and the risk of Savin cucking it all up into the mix and it's probably best that shit just stays on lock.

Fuck me if in the least tarded timeline idiots aren't also enjoying subby orc bullied by midget and his cow tho
