Alright, two words.
Inconsistent Writing.
Imagine lotr but it was secretly written by 20 people that Tolkien met at a fetish fanfic convention, this is the game.
Right off the bat the game has multiple different writers shoehorning their OCs onto the Champion's face and making said OCs do whatever the hell the writers want. The game advertises itself as a choice driven game with you being in control of the story as it's your story in the first place but you're barely even participating in anything, at the start you're forced to do nothing as the ritual just happens regardless of your actions. The cat girl's sister is gone and you're left with a demoness with a cock bigger than your entire body out loose around the supposedly "pure" world of Savarra. Once you wake up after that totally not linear start to the story you're then forced to sit through the agonizing writing of The Observer as he tries his best to make the Champion sounds like the most annoying asshole on the entire continent of Savarra, oh what's that you headcanon your mc as a heroic brooding guy with a penchant for badassery? Well now he's an autistic asshole who talks like he's in a subtle comedy show where he gets to ruin every possible emotional moments in the story by using sarcastic remarks every single time somebody talks to him. Oh and did i mention that he somehow forgot that quotes exist and it can be use to denote that the Champ is talking? Yeah, that's what i meant by inconsistent writing because this guy completely disregard the fact that Savin wrote the way the Champion talks by using quotation marks like the rest of the characters in the game and instead makes the Champion talk like he's talking telepathically. Almost every scene by this, respectfully, dumbass writer has the Champion inner monologuing their own conversation so when you go from quotation to whatever the hell he's cooking here it just felt really jarring and awkward to read. I admit this might just be me nitpicking the writer and i do dislike the writer in general because of the disaster that is the Kitsunes written by his truly but i assure you it gets really annoying after getting used to Savin writing style in the tutorial. Just play it and you'll see what i meant
That's just the tip of the iceberg of writing inconsistency, it's clear from the getgo that this game would've benefitted with a clear planning of writing style for the writers to follow but somehow Savin forgo the word "planning" and decided to let loose a bunch of unsupervised fanfic writers to man this clusterfuck of a project. No wonder this game is taking so long to develop because they can't even have a consistent plan to follow in the first place.
The world isn't even "pure" and if pure means filled with sex crazed maniac who tries to rape you forcefully or not every day then i can't even imagine what corrupted is like at this point, hell even the living gods and goddesses partake in the raping massacre. Even worse is how the orcs are written in this game, which is the most obviously corrupted species of orcs i've ever seen in my whole life. Apparently slavery, raping, plundering innocent villages, and murdering random travelers is a normal pure occurrence for the orcs and the Savarrans tolerate said behavior without any problem whatsoever. It makes you wonder what even IS pure at this point, it's not just them but every single species is either out to have sex with you after battle or is out to rape you regardless, no in between.
I don't even understand the vision that Savin has for coc2 anymore, if corruption is the main focus then why is the world written like it's already a world far too gone to even save in the first place? Why is everybody doing things that you can't control? what even is the Champion doing? This game is already a fucking mess. From the disjointed story that gets completely ignored multiple times in favor of OC sidequest that barely contributes anything towards the overall narrative, lore, and story of the game to the convoluted amount of writers all writing in different styles for a single game without any supervision by the creator of the series itself, this game is not worth your time. Maybe in the future it'll at least be a fun little TF game but as of right now, this game is just one giant pile of a mess that rivals even TiTS
