Others Corruption of Champions II [v0.8.17] [Savin/Salamander Studios]

[Jbuster]

But I haven't given up on femboy writing

Thank you crab-sama, more femboy stuff please

Inventory management isn't a bad gameplay decision if there's reason to manage the inventory. Scarcity and decision making would give both weight and permeance to what you decide to keep or what build you pursue. In games in which character growth is permanent, it makes sense.

In this game however builds are "different" and most are enabled by what you equip. Also in this game there's very little overlap on gear stat distribution and pieces have unique effects. This is also exemplified by the fact that you can swap powers and stats whenever you want.

A first timer wouldn't know some random item from some random NPC plays nicely with an accessory they got for the third quest they ever did. They'd want to keep it so they could use it later and take stock later in the game. That the "solution" at the time was Kalysea eating unique items really only made me think that nobody in the writing team regularly plays their own game.

Which probably accounts for how spontaneously the tone changes between character and content nonstop forever.



I can agree with this.
Hugs Berwyn felt like a horny character in a horny world who still had to deal with real issues he had to sort. Like his teacher using him, being an inexperienced mage, and various family woes.

While the build a Berwyn workshop was neat. The character isn't exactly layered. Even the dom/sub buildup isn't as fun. Going from a scale that took the character down two different paths with exclusive content to a modifier that interacts in the same scenes with different parsers.


I mean knife's not wrong.

It does make sense for it to exist.
It'd be more erroneous if they just faff off and far more egregious if there was another Kas ex machina like what happens when you if you let yourself lose to the blood knight. Also neither as abrupt nor as offputting as Vasha just casually breaking your wings and tossing you off a cliff if the player character loses the fight.

If I'm not playing horror/survival then I don't care about limited space, not like I should be able to carry everything I want all the time, because that's messy and troublesome without a proper catalog system

Also, there's a disconnect between the small inventory for your magical treasures and the narrative, as you get a fortress so space should never be an issue after that. At that point I see the decision as something dumb he did without thinking

Giving stuff to Kaly should at least give you a bonus, a way to enhance your champion through her magic or something instead of this cock ring that plays as a joke, what I'm saying is that there should be a correlation, a benefit from sacrificing unique items, that way the player may choose, "do I keep this to try another build or do I get this boon in power but lock myself of a set of abilities?"

Even a small treasure room would fix it, or a larger display than the one you can buy from the cat demon

 

[Sacred_Lamb]

I wouldn't hold my hopes up on deer boy. He is from the period when the quality of my writing was bad.

What makes you say that? I've read it before and didn't find bad, what did you improve on?

 

[Rononoes]

there are 1952 times the word chuckle is used so far
this game is word slop

 

[Sacred_Lamb]

And the worst part, it's not even their own concept, they stole it form Baldur's Gate 3.
In case you don't know, in BG 3 there's a companion named Gale, and you have to sacrifice magical items to him, otherwise he gets pretty severe debuffs.
But because BG3 is based, you can actually cure him or even never interact with his recruitment trigger in the first place.

Worse it was even done well. BG3 is the furthest thing from based but it does great things with well established troupes

 

[CrimsonSongbird1982]

Can someone pls take gwyn and her mom away from tobs

I'd like to add on to this by requesting everything be taken away from tobs. It's not like he's doing anything with his stuff.

At that point I see the decision as something dumb he did without thinking

That sums up most of savin's decision making. The rest is just him not acknowledging it and hoping critique goes away.

Also Gale is dedicated to the bit of blowing himself up at the smallest inconvenience and that alone makes him compelling.

That being said I can't in good (bad?) conscience bring up bad ends without reminding everyone of the travesty that is (was?) Nakano's bad end.

The one time the player contributes to the plot is in a bad end where being forced to give newly transformed kitsussy motivates an op weeb into fixing everything. Does this mean hime Kinu is bad since her marrying Nakano doesn't make him save the world?

Giving stuff to Kaly should at least give you a bonus, a way to enhance your champion through her magic or something instead of this cock ring that plays as a joke

I think the cock ring is part of a fetish that got merged into savin's BS attempt to take away stuff thus preventing said fetish from being taken as its own thing.

The only way inventory management could be worse is if savin decided to use the absolutely unfun and brain dead mechanic of weapon durability but when weapon breaks it's just gone as a way of getting rid of special stuff. Then again people defended BotW and TotK for it so I'm sure their official echo chambers would defend that too

I've been meaning to ask, is your pfp femboy or gender bend Lincoln?

The Zelda and its weapon durability have been a disaster for the human race.

 

[BerryVerry]

Does dude have any intention on adding anal pregnancy? I want to breed cute femboys and shit.

 

[Sacred_Lamb]

The Zelda and its weapon durability have been a disaster for the human race.

FACTS
I like weapon durability if it is:
- Appropriate for the setting
- Implemented in a way that reinforces said setting
- Is made in way that the player understands how it work and can be ahead of the curve.

BOTW has no business dealing with weapon durability because things are so goddamn easy.

 

[ChubbyFatBoy]

So in an hypothetical scenario, what spite project would you promote?, under which banner would Savin try to sully your name while giving you what you want?

Oh we both know what I want at this point. But nothing I can do would lead to me getting it. I can't slowly annoy people like the cat harem guy. And at some point during the process even if I tried. Someone on that forum, discord, or wherever I would be. Would say something dumb. Whether that be Savin and friends or their fans. Something deep in my loins would cause me to respond. Similar to how I talk here. And there is a 0% chance that things don't eventually escalate at some point. To where I'm launching molotov cocktail responses. Saying all types of no no words and getting banned.

I ain't making it. I know I ain't gonna make it. And if I do collect any spite. It would be in the opposite direction. Them characters would get buried even harder. Or worse! they add unremovable dicks to them.

Sensible take, Hirrud was a once in a lifetime miracle done jumping through many hoops at the right time, I swear the second they let you de-dick another character it will be done with inserts from this thread's posters turned into bimbos for one or two threesomes, may this words not be prophetic

Kinu's pussy game weak AF, Kiyoko falls apart in shame

Guess I'll have my futa champion doing the old futadom and reforming that tepid, Great Value Sasuka Uchiha into the serious, yet adorable femboy he was meant to be. Sorry Kinu, you deserve better...

You could say CoC2 possess a microcosmos of fans in the same way BoTW and TotK, there's a centric community that's unable to find any problem in the game, they just take it, almost as if loving it was a part of their personality. With them there's no reasoning, that silly mechanic that makes no sense is perfect for them and no argument will turn them from that truth

Does dude have any intention on adding anal pregnancy? I want to breed cute femboys and shit.

There's some kind of anal pregnancy, but it's not something nice

I've been meaning to ask, is your pfp femboy or gender bend Lincoln?

Femboy, found the drawing incomplete somewhere so I had bullied a friend into adding more details and colors

Spoiler: And now I have him as an acrylic stand and a keychain too

The text right under femboy art saying "BASE WOMAN" creates a comedic effect.

No. The only anal (pseudo-)pregnancy in this game - is when insects use ovipositors to insert their insect eggs into player's asshole.

Facts. Whoever came up with it should be banned from using anything not made of cheap, fragile glass.

I volunteer as tribute. But isn't it kind of weird Hirrud never showed up completely bimbofied or like ever again after that last scene of him getting arrested?

I can't decide if I dislike the writing and narrative and overuse of original the character do not steal of CoC2 more than Nintendo's brain dead take on weapon durability. I'm being sincere too, my weapons exploding and being treated like ammo ruins exploration and disincentivizes combat. Three Houses is right there doing it right but instead the master sword is now battery operated I guess. Sorry for going off topic I'm just very passionate about complaining about poorly handled durability mechanics.

Them characters would get buried even harder. Or worse! they add unremovable dicks to them.

Aren't perma dicks listed as a legal requirement in the design doc?

 

[Daddums]

I want to say they were saying he was supposed to be and you could pick him up as a member of the cat harem, but I think that got dropped because typical Savco shenanigans.

There were plans to expand Hirrud, turning him into a girl and adding him to Champ's harem.
But then BubbleLord fell of the face of the Earth, so it never manifested into anything.

Given Bubblelord's track record I doubt Femme Hirrud would've happened anytime soon had he stuck around. And probably would've been a skeleton of a character that got dropped because someone would've hurt his feelings by not liking his writing infecting more characters.

I guess Hirrud being in the minotaur equivalent of gay baby jail is a more understandable way of saying feature complete than just being abandoned like so many other characters, *cough*Kinu*cough*.

 

[BMVV]

Bubblelord was too busy pretending to be rich on discord and bitching about the critics here to write anything. No wonder he disappeared.

And here I was thinking they simply realized the entire thing was retarded. And moved on because of it. WELP! That's my bad for expecting more. But wait..... hold on. Did they ever realize it was dumb? Please don't tell me they actually went on thinking they did something clever?

Remember, Savin paid for it too. The portraits didn't drew themselves for free, that's for sure.

"'Roasted' - he says, while presenting a man with a harem of pure women."
