As someone who played TiTs, CoC and CoC2 to at least a good 90% completion each (I have no life and I just ignored most the text cos, oh my god, WHY are these game like listening to an NPC's life story!? Even Shakespeare used less text!), I can honestly say they all only have a handful of memorable moments but they're not like "Holy shit! That's crazy!", more just "Oh, I remember that." Like, TiTs you can get a planet glassed by nuclear war, killing everyone on it. There's a Wyvern Dragon who, if you spare a few times then lose to, you can fuck and breed with (which takes literal in-game years to build an army with, but there's a command to skip each year) and you can take over the planet with them. Er... Dr Null, a guy with no gender who can kill you in like three shots (and beating him gets you XP and money, but he just resets cos you're not supposed to kill him apparently). Sex Robot who gains sentience, that one I liked but I mean you could argue Detroit: Become Human did it better so why bother with the porn one...It's like forever ago, CoC2 is worse that totally ditched "gay" aspect.
Even when there's male NPC / Enemy, it's more of "Bi sex", "Chastity cage" or "transform you into female/futa", nothing feel gay about it.
And it's quite difficult to immerse oneself into a game about transformation.
Plus I don't think there're any story / narrative can write home about either
Worse, I can think of many memorable moments from LD, but none from TiTs.
CoC ... I quite like the Spirit and North Kinght (even tho it's M/F), and IIRC there's a gentle gay Orc?
Honestly, other than people you can fuck, I'm struggling to remember parts that weren't just "Meh". The planet glassing it probably the biggest one, given it's just a single action you don't think much about that has massive consequences. (If you activate the self-destruct of a pirate base you're invading with Shade, it triggers an anti-nuke super weapon that doesn't know who did what so just kills everything) There's another one where you can fail to deactivate nukes on a planet, but that only cuts the map in half, it doesn't shut it off entirely.
I would talk about CoC and CoC2 but I figured I'd only bring up the one you said had nothing to save us all a wall of text. Not arguing that it isn't pretty lackluster, just trying to give you the cliff notes of what parts are worth remembering.
