Well this just makes me think less of B now, as if he was brought on to finish Berwyn and he decided it was to hard to work on and then abandoned it so he could work on Agni, why should I have confidence in Agni's writing? As the moment it gets too hard he'll just abandon her to. Which I imagine Agni is going to be harder, as she is a full companion. And yes I understand Berwyn was considered harder because of all the the transformations, but that was a decision they made. It wasn't there when Hugs was working on it. So they added an additional burden and gave up half way through, when it became to difficult.
If we're talking under the assumption of B being rewarded with Agni for having accepted to work on Berwyn, then i'd say it's more on the piss poor managining than the writer. Even if they hadn't said, we can deduce Berwyn being taken out was always in the plans by how every writer just stopped giving him any regular companion content for a while now (see Alypia and the cow teacher), so really what they did is creating a situation where both companions B was working on got left in the dust, the new one for almost a year and the old one permanently altogether.

Honestly, dumb no matter what angle you take. I guess we can go , but really either just keep everyone working on Berwyn and keep him as a companion even with a reduced amount of weighty content (which is everyone but Brienne, Cait and maybe Arona anyway), or make the new companion a male one rather than a chicken futa in disguise.

And fair enough if the latter option is unfeasible because this 30k project (+ steam) can only recruit from community writers, but with how sloppy everything usually is with this game only reason i can think of that they chose not to go with the former is because they wanted a clear cut from Hugs. Or just more sloppiness than usual, dunno.

What is submitted by the community is largely public record. We know not much male stuff gets submitted - we can see it.
The staff isn't basing what gets in the game on their own personal feelings, what they're saying is noone on the staff really is into writing it, not that they're turning up their nose at what gets submitted.

Mostly female stuff gets submitted - mostly female stuff gets approved - mostly female stuff makes it onto the team.
I mean, they could just have a disclaimer to tell hetero women and gay dudes to fuck off instead of pretending that it's incredibly hard to find people who can write that shit.

I swear half the problems I see complained about here would be solved by them hiring an editor or two. Someone outside their bubble that can say "hey, this is what this looks like to people who aren't you, you'll want to change this." I very much get the impression that the writers are in too deep with their own kinks and ideas, and don't really get what they look like to people outside their bubble. Things like corruption being completely pointless because everyone is already a turboslut, everything to do with Cait, the overabundance of horse cocks (seriously, wtf is with these people?) and the overall worldbuilding and characterization being an awkward mix of porn logic and semi-serious high fantasy.

Even if they were just upfront and were like "this is a game about everyone sleeping with everyone else, there's basically no female MC content, and try not to take the worldbuilding too seriously because we started out with porn and fleshed it out later" would go miles in setting people's expectations.

Not to be that guy and all, but its a pretty weird echo chamber here as well. The only real difference is levels of moderation.

Like as a person who actually still likes most of what CoC2 does, its hard to actually want to voice that opinion for fear that the forums will shit all over me for it.
I didn't play coc2 for about 2-3 years and was going to get back today. Then I saw they axed my boi :HideThePain:. Is there a good amount of content in the game? Is it worth the time now? (I just didn't try too much at the time because I felt it was still way at the beggining).

Which would result in even less of that stuff. Seems counterproductive.

There is quite a good amount of content in game. Act 1 is complete, Act 2 is advancing, several sidequests (both major and minor) are complete or close to completion, and there are plenty of characters and kinks to enjoy.

Seems honest. Do you dislike honesty?
It wouldn't at all be honest. And it would be silly to do. You'd be depriving the people who want that stuff in the game of the possibility of ever having it, due to turning away possible content creators up front.

If not for my ill health and the drama and hate/spite that the devs seem to cause and spew, I would gave written for the game. I would have been happy to ensure that groups who dont get much content were getting some love.

But alas, I'm not risking my well being getting worse when I'm already ill enough to not be able to work and such.

I wrote the following for the COC1 mods:

The worldbuilding isn't even logical when you think more than five seconds. The Boreal elves magical third gender doesn't make any type of sense and feels inserted in out of nowhere. Everyone seems to be a-okay with Cait's religion on essentially grooming children into sex workers, but Kas is the bad one? Your character has knowledge on the truth of the gods but seems to not give a shit to tell ANYONE about what he knows. The Kitsunes feel more out of place than fucking Pathfinder's world and that game's world has a literal cyberpunk city across the way from a medieval town.

This is what happens when you try to do DnD shit but lack the skill to make it work.

Have you done the quest? If you keep wandering around, after 100 moves it pity moves you to the boss. After the fights you decide where Mathias gets sent and then you can acess the tower when you set up a camp.
