Others Corruption of Champions II [v0.8.19] [Savin/Salamander Studios]

[Yeppers34]

What the hell is the point of adding anti modding code? Do you know how freaking annoying it is to code functions, images and anything else and they are just adding In bloat just to stop someone from changing shit?! It is the biggest waste of time in any engine, especially since it isn't gonna work. They know they have to keep changing the code to prevent modding so just don't, it's pointless. Sorry for rant, it's just dumb too make assignments for yourself and mess up your own work for no gain.

You underestimate the sheer amount of pettiness sav co is capable of.

I've seen many people mention Savin going Gung ho on the anit modding coding. Can someone explain why he hates modding so much?

That's strange when plenty or porn/anime/games, including this one, have sexualized characters that are 18™ (or a 1018 year old non-human), but mentally and/or physically meant to be young. Etna from Disgaea is an infamous example.

I mean, I don't get angry or creeped out when the people in porn don't go out of their way to clarify the other actor is playing their STEP-relative.

No that is not the reason. The team never took heat or were called pedos over mods.

The reasons they hate mods is: 1) because one particular mod(the revamp mod) is much more popular than the original and gets referenced very often as if it were official content when it wasn't. This is of course because that mod actually finished a lot of content that was left dangling and made a bunch of QoL improvements that made the game more enjoyable to play. and 2) because they hate the fact that people can mess with there oc's without permission.

Much as Savin's a bit of a bitch, I do recall some prints of him pointing that out. Goku did get it right.

Now, don't get me wrong, things can be more complex and there probably is an aspect of control involved... but as far as I recall, modding to CoC2 has been fairly recent and Savin did get fussy over one mod for CoC1, possibly the hgg one if I'm not misremembering.

The guy from that mod has been around here in the past, he'll have a better memory than a lurker like me.

The big reason is that the team took pretty big heat for mods that added content like Lolita with CoC. Getting called pedos when you had nothing to do with the content can sour anyone towards mods.

Now that I think of it, I have the memory of commenting that Savin really was throwing the baby with the bath water on that.

Pretty sure most of us in this thread, both active and inactive, got into CoC1 through the modded versions... And we know how CoC2 went so far.

No can do, sorry. I have to try and fight off the brainworms whispering to me to write LeoKatya instead View attachment 5522788

Aw, she's cute. Swing at it.

Yeah they are just petty and insecure that people can do their jobs better than them and their special snowflakes actions aren't without consequences. As a writer (a paid one at that) you got to distance yourself from your characters or atleast handle your feelings maturely. Cutting off critism and discussion ensures you remain stagnant and slowly lose any motivation to better yourself. Which leads to your writing to be average at best and boring at worst.

Their forums would've been more livelier if they did that, just to put it in broad terms. Like we wouldn't have the activity in this thread, had they not been as they are.

Some here could've even considered becoming community writers, maybe even... Oh, I don't know, wrote the corrupted hive stuff Savin complained nobody did?

I doubt anyone will ever look at CoC2 as reference for future projects, but the post-mortem for this really should have the phrase "Don't be an ass" at the top.

It's the people who gave the OK to KinuQuest, true spite in text form. Works well for the annual Player Haters Ball (someone has to fill the vacancies opened by the sad passings of Buck Nasty and Pit Bull, RIP), not so much for a game's good rep.

CoC2 trivia; In a previous version of the game you could deploy Etheryn's ass as a makeshift shield to contain Hashat's unbound lust

Can't you still do that and Ryn is enthusiastic about it even at low confidence?

Katya becomes a muscle fluffy leothran mommy but the price is either giving her a horse dick or have a threesome with some random futa elves that soon become their lovers and you have to watch

Choose

Can we change the horsedick to another dick that's consistent with the aesthetic at least? I like futa but I like consistency more.

Next time we'll talk about Sanders not sharing the spellblade gnoll that's gonna get new content any day now

As much of a meme as it's become, Vaas was onto something with the insanity rant. The point is it makes Savin feel powerful and like he's in control and no one will push back on him because they're either sycophants, categorized as haters and disregarded, or people who see it as a job and care more about the money since Savin probably pays for his BS anti modding crusades. Plus while I'm sure it does affect Savin, it affects the coding staff more so he probably doesn't care.

Their forums would've been more livelier if they did that, just to put it in broad terms. Like we wouldn't have the activity in this thread, had they not been as they are.

The fenforums are so dead the users either post here because they want to vent, or to try to troll us for Savin's honor.

Do you think Savin gets bored and lurks here sometimes?

I doubt anyone will ever look at CoC2 as reference for future projects, but the post-mortem for this really should have the phrase "Don't be an ass" at the top.

Savin has a negative reputation and will never salvage it and his ego definitly can't take that. Being a cautionary tale before his game is even done probably pisses him off.

I don't think so, at least I can't remember any other way

Damn, so I'm just cooked?
