Others Corruption of Champions II [v0.8.13] [Savin/Salamander Studios]

[CrimsonSongbird1982]

Well recalled, though I didn't know he was actually brought back by Shueisha. I'll never understand why they don't treat it as seriously as most other places.

Aside from the sad reality mentioned previously, he also has the One Piece creator going hard on his defense and pushing for him to come back and be honored. Plus it's my understanding that culturally any punishment over there is seen as enough so they think he's properly reformed and/or punished and excuse him. Not everyone probably, but enough people and the one's that matter in platforming him do.

So if you guys could, what changes would you implement?

So many. Imma list that shit.

1. Rework combat. As it is now it's unfun and poorly balanced.
2. Kitsune need a huge rework. Too many problems to list.
3. Add corruption content.
4. Rework or remove any writing that assigns input or attraction to the player without input. There's a huge difference between writing to arouse and writing as if assuming we are already aroused.
5. Remove the gods and their stupid twist. That shit is so dumb. Their art can be reused for newish characters that fulfill the same roles just with a different context.
6. Bring the technology to a more traditional fantasy setting level.
7. Remove the anti power fantasy angle.
8. Add vampires. Patreon let's them get away with worse bullshit and vampire sex games are there without issue. They can be NPCs or a corruption flavored offshoot that adds new resistances and weaknesses for combat and new powers.
9. Fist/unarmed weapons.
10. Waystone in the shark place.
11. Add the ability to equip more powers. Maybe one to two extra rows of the same slot set up minus another at-will power. For companions let them assign set powers to these extra slots.
12. More options to react to events and characters.
13. Who the fuck thought the Mallach grooming thing was ok? Remove that part. That vampires and shit are a no no but that that is considered ok to them is telling.
14. Either add actual build up and depth to the Azzy/Liaden relationship and make it clear from the outset that Azzy isn't an exclusive character or scrap it.
15. Accept more variety in fetishes. I like futa and futadom and Wsan's stuff but even I'm tired of it being the primary option. That's not how the game is marketed.
16. Stop letting Savin make lore and canon decisions for the first game.
17. Rein in Tobs. His writing is usually the worst offender of some of the points here.
18. Actually focus on story progress.
19. Agni was a mistake, remove her. I offer the idea of manticore girl companion if needed. Maybe the strawberry one from the foothills. I like her even if there's not much too her.
20. Raise the planned level cap to 20.
21. Stop hamstringing community writers and fix the review process. Some of the better or less divisive stuff comes from them and they pick up Savin's slack on variety but get pushed aside in favor of his fetishes or buried because docs labor in review hell.

RIP screen space.

I take issue with this and not for the reasons why you think. This reeks of SAFE similar to how you have safe edgy or safe jokes. This is as safe as it gets
I didn't mind the kitsunes being xenophobic. I hate that I could not react to them being xenophobic.
It is your taste because I can see that you're just tailoring it to what you like. But i'm more of a big picture type, right? Sure, I want some of the things that I like in there. But I want to involve things that would naturally occur for that setting, not stuff I cherry pick, you know what I mean?

I removed xenophobia because Kitsune as a race in fantasy are anything but xenophobic. I will agree that CoC2 would be much better if we could tackle this elephant in the room and make the imperialists run with their so many tails between their legs. As for being safe... you're probably right? It didn't cross my mind, but then again when I talk to people, I am polite to a fault, to the point where other people got angry for me.

Strawberry_Tea's manticore, Valencia in Harvest Valley is such a fun brat. Even though they're not around anymore (they did make Clementine too). They popped in about a year back to say Clem was free game, but that they had some ideas for Val and that she was off-limits. I think they've been AFK long enough that Savin could easily give permission if someone had a good scene at this point though. Trying to get into her vagina is tough, and usually you have to either train her with Cait or do a 19 hour tail cunt pheromone scene. But so worth it

 

[Sacred_Lamb]

Yes


You have to be picky when choosing the kind of exotic, alien pussy you'll risk your life and sanity for. Remember, you have but one life, unlike a certain bozzo who had the potential to achieve the stars and yet, went for mediocre pussy every time

I hate you Benjamin Tennyson, the one motherfucker that had a free pass for the cosmic QT buffet and yet never ate anything more threatening than a tuna sandwich

I was so pissed, It made no fucking sense, even Grampa Max was smashing Alien Strange.
Ben is still my boi tho

Ain't mad at you. It's just, you can't always be safe. You gotta have something to say, right?Because going back on Skyrim impression you used for the lizard people.The argonians have really deep and weird lore - They gain their intelligence from a sentient tree.They have this clan understanding of should their nation be under attack.They retreat back to the jungle. As a species like it's a global call where they all go back to the jungle and wage war.
Even the orc in elder scrolls are a strange cursed type of elf that have been disavowed by other elves on some racist shit, you need these types of edges to make it feel Immersive, if everyone is just holding hands, acceptably "mah multiculture", all the time, it's going to be bland.

Aside from the sad reality mentioned previously, he also has the One Piece creator going hard on his defense and pushing for him to come back and be honored. Plus it's my understanding that culturally any punishment over there is seen as enough so they think he's properly reformed and/or punished and excuse him. Not everyone probably, but enough people and the one's that matter in platforming him do.

I think it's more of a fact that the pedo in question is a genuine OG of Shonen. Like I remember when I was young, and because I lived in the countryside where you only had two channels, I would race home just to watch kenshin. He is very much a staple, so them crowding around him even though he's in the wrong for that shit is understandable. And I do think he should get the firing squad for that, but a piece of me does empathize with what they're doing, even though it's wrong. My faith in humanity is also low enough for me to think that maybe he has some dirt on some people in that circle, but that's just my paranoia talking.

A solid fucking take if I've ever seen one.

Some of these... Might be doable.

 

[CrimsonSongbird1982]

Strawberry_Tea's manticore, Valencia in Harvest Valley is such a fun brat.

I was mainly talking about this bubblegum goober here but Valencia would be a better option and fit very well as a companion with a simple yet easily understandable motivation, my taste in murderous pink dommes aside.

I know she's an early random wake up call enemy but I vibe with her design and scenes and is part of why I won't completely write off Skow and wish Strawberry Tea came back.

Some of these... Might be doable.

I'll admit the vampire thing is me being self indulgent but for the rest I wanted to be realistic in scope. Ironically implementing most of these would still require a significant amount of work and hinder the story progress point. The base, imo, needs a lot of rework and a more unified vision before loading it with the fun niche kinky stuff.

Remember when CoC1 had stuff like the cult dedicated to a roleplaying fetish haunting an area? They were small but that was the unique kinda stuff that gave it its charm well before modding and was kinda interesting in some ways. Plus it added variety. CoC2 is missing that kind of stuff, though I'm sure the main devs would botch it somehow.

Ain't mad at you. It's just, you can't always be safe. You gotta have something to say, right?

I think I get what you're saying. The inclusion of xenophobia in the kitsune isn't the problem, it's how it's handled and treated by the world and author. It's not commenting on it and doesn't really expand the kitsune in any meaningful way and we can't interact with it in any capacity aside from just taking it despite the thinly veiled contempt some like Nakano have for us. I'm personally of a mind that Tobs should either shit or get off the pot so to speak. Either he needs to do something with it or remove it since he clearly can't handle such a theme. Or let someone else try their hand at it if interested.

Jesus christ I'm doing literary analysis on porn.

The argonians have really deep and weird lore - They gain their intelligence from a sentient tree.They have this clan understanding of should their nation be under attack.They retreat back to the jungle. As a species like it's a global call where they all go back to the jungle and wage war.

Shout out to the time hell invaded the world but had to leave the lizard people alone because they kept getting high on magical trees and bum rushing the portals and killing everything and freaked one of the world's satans out so much he decided not to deal with that.

 

[Alfred_Hayes1245]

So if you guys could, what changes would you implement?

This will be somewhat focused on the kitsune because I've spent a lot of times just mulling over what I don't like.
Disclaimer: this is mostly a personal gripe and want to the story.

1. Rework all of Kinu quest, in general change everything about Kinu. Look, I may have commissioned some not-so wholesome fic for Kinu, but doesn't mean I'm in the part that want to bang her. The time skip is just unnecessary. I'm promised a wholesome family simulator and the game did not deliver and the seed where I hated tobs grew.
2. The whole kitsune race, I don't mean to tone down their whole schtick as this closed off, haughty, "I'm better than you" community. But it would be nice to see them getting more and more comfortable as the time went with PC in their community.
3. Continuing on my previous point, it would be nice if we could maybe get a quest to help the younger generation that haven't seen their old home country to be more accepting and maybe support us more.
4. Takahiro. Rather than him being what he is, he should be a more open, more "bro" type of character that you could coax to change. I don't know why but I felt a strange sense of empathy for him.
5. Kiyoko. I like Kiyoko as a character but she felt closed off from the other companions. There's little interaction between her and the others, that she felt just like a cardboard cutout. I know she is supposed to be this graceful, lithe thing that always composed but even polite rejection would be nice.
6. The option to dedick and feminize every character with dick. This is just my own fetish, don't bother.
7. More human character, I don't know how much of them there is now but I remember there's a lack of human character.
8. Personally, I would move the timeline a bit to have steel and maybe early form of firearm and gunpowder, not out of anything, I just disliked the lack of innovation.
9. Rework the gods. TLS made a great job of this. Rather than them just being a janitor after champs big fight with BBEG. Make a reason as to why they don't or can't interfere or incapable of fighting the BBEG. If I wanted to write them as all powerful however, I would just make them reside in their little astral place because they felt no need to interfere because it's beneath them.
10. Character to the PC and agency to the PC. It's okay to not want to make a power fantasy, but rather than making the PC this camera for the characters to fuck in front of, actually make the PC the main character. There are many ways to balance both not wanting a power fantasy and giving the actual PC agency for being a player character.
11. Expanding on my previous point. It would be nice if like TiTS we could chose our personality to affect how the dialogue presented.
12. Expanding upon my expansion. If that is hard, there should an archetype at least on how the PC act, there will main archetype and bonus archetype. Main archetype is basically D&D alignment while the bonus archetype can just be how PC react to sex and stuff. (May come over this to refine later)
13. Corrupting the companions. There's should be a way to at least corrupt the companion, like making Brint into Brienne and corrupting her into a bimbo or something, Cait into a meek cat girl, Kiyoko into a yandere, etc.
14. Corruption content as a whole and the option to just play as an asshole.
15. Make the world actually a virgin before kasyrra.

Some of these are pretty nice, 9-14 are basically mandatory. 15 I think is going to be the one that would be impossible as Savin (judging off his fetishes and how he acts + the various receipts shared) is a hypersexual slut himself (maybe he just imagines the stuff and doesn't actually do what he writes about) so at best you can beg for is healthy sexual relations before Kas.
8 is cool in concept until you realize that changes the setting significantly.

 

[Alfred_Hayes1245]

Yeah, it's more of a personal thing that I wanted to see but not really important.

 

[YouShallNotLol]

Remember when CoC1 had stuff like the cult dedicated to a roleplaying fetish haunting an area? CoC2 is missing that kind of stuff, though I'm sure the main devs would botch it somehow.

Yeah, they will make the roleplay fetish cult role play different flavours of futadommes dominating Champ (you), and maybe letting Champ (you) watch as they dominate Champ's (your) companions too. Of course they will be doing it exclusively in the ass, never touching any other hole.
Because it's Savin, obviously.

The archetype one is actually harder than the TiTS personality modules since that means cluster parsers (multiple bonus archetypes each accounting for a main archetype) which honestly -- is work nobody in their right mind will want to do.
Even the TiTS personality thing is gonna be a lot of work since that would mean crawling through the entire game and writing (what I'm assuming is a minimum of 3 variants) for every applicable scene.
I'm guessing it was not implemented because they didn't want it to intersect with the existing "personality" parsers (before that became too much trouble and they just didn't bother with it anymore), and because they're just kinda lazy (or mismanaged). I am well aware it's a ton of work but if it were me, at least, I'd prioritize that instead of more nobody characters that are just gonna be forgotten 2 updates down the line.
Making another route for a character as well, is a lot of work, art and coding aside, since that would mean that you'll have to make another version of all their interactions, so doing that for someone like Cait would mean a LOT of work, though not impossible. I mean, they did it in CoC1, but knowing Savin... unlikely to any "extreme" degree such as corruption that isn't just a different goth/blue bust.

 

[JohnnyCashMoney]

In spirit I'm with you. Visually we're in harmony. Y'all know my proclivities when it comes to exploring the weird and unknown. And this particular scenario is fine. But with these aliens in particular.... I gotta approach with caution. One thing the Greys are known for, outside of their particular look. Is shoving probes up people's asses. And I don't want that type of 1st contact.

Sometimes they stick things in other places. For an example watch "Fire in the Sky" (1993). It won't won't make it sexier for you, in fact, it will do the exact opposite.

Yeah, come to think of it, it'll be complicated but it's just a suggestion to add personality because the player character are just bland as fuck. It's irritating. Or at least the chance for the PC to let out an opinion based on PC class and background.

Definitely, it will be quite the project though. Can't entirely blame the writers on this one because I myself can't remember all of the PC backgrounds off the top of my head or keep in mind to include them for every other scene.
What I can think of to work with would be the corruption score, which has just been moonlighting as the personality mechanic when it shouldn't have in the first place.
It just becomes a bigger project trying to make the corruption system its own thing and making an actual additional personality score, as that's what should have been done in the first place.

 

[Tsubuhaza]

Aside from the sad reality mentioned previously, he also has the One Piece creator going hard on his defense and pushing for him to come back and be honored. Plus it's my understanding that culturally any punishment over there is seen as enough so they think he's properly reformed and/or punished and excuse him. Not everyone probably, but enough people and the one's that matter in platforming him do.

Yeah, true. I'd also add that I find One Piece to be rather overrated but I think that's enough of a detour.

Overall, I think it'd be plenty of progress to just make reviewing and "character ownership" less of a pain. Disregarding tastes and all, game really does a disservice when it comes to that.

 

[K1ng_C00mer]

Overall, I think it'd be plenty of progress to just make reviewing and "character ownership" less of a pain. Disregarding tastes and all, game really does a disservice when it comes to that.

It really just shows that none of the people in charge of this game have any right to be leading game development. And I get it, "It's an indie project" "It's just a bunch of friends making a game". I would contend the fact that there are a circle of writers on payroll is enough to make this count as a professionally developed game. Though I'm not asking for full on structured game dev or crunch times or anything of the sort. Just, Savin was a writer on the first CoC and TiTs, surely he'd at least know to make things easier for people to get their writing into the game. That's how the previous two games were developed, on the back of a dedicated fanbase contributing to new content.

I'm loving the discussions here, especially the list about what changes we'd make to the game were we in charge. Crimsonsongbird1982's list is pretty close to my wishlist as well. I'll still always say Lusina in the Harvest Valley should've been our new thief companion once it was clear Einen would be scrapped. Yeah she's not a rouge, but she uses thief skills in combat. Highway bandit is good enough to fit the bill. She could even get a warrior themed alt set as well.

For personality, I can see it going two ways. One the easy but simple way and the other the complex but harder way. The former is to just do what GS21 said, make the corruption system work as our personality meter.

The less corrupt you are, the more of a goody two shoes you are, the more corrupt, the more of a dick you are. There can be certain options gatekeeped between one or the other. Hypothetically say, the ability to cuck someone if you're corrupt. Or the ability to free someone who's enslaved if you're not corrupt.

The other way would be to tie your personality to the background you select during character creation. Currently, we have ten backgrounds to choose from. Noble, Hunter, Scholar, Soldier, Courtesan, Minstrel, Arcanist, Barbarian, Slum Rat, and finally Acolyte (Insert Star Wars joke here.). I think some of these can be consolidated a bit. Arcanist and Scholar, Hunter and Barbarian are similiar enough to warrant this. Still, that leaves us with eight different personalities to write, as well as the corrupt variants. Yeah, definetly going to have to consider consolidating more of the backgrounds if we're going this route.
