discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

Not a conspiracy theory apple gas been sued many times and admitted it. They just pay a fine then continue to do it because people buying new phones makes way more money then the fine.

Wasn't apple sued for artificial throttlening cpus on older phones with newer updates, what conversely drained the battery faster? So it's a side effect and not the main problem.

Mini-games can be fun if you find a good one, which, I’ll admit, is pretty rare. Still, check out Aurelia. It’s a standout, and does a great job blending mini-games with adult content.

I have to agree this one surprised me. Mini games just have to be done right honestly.

I guess that depends on your point of view but that is true. They force updates by having apps that won't work unless you update and slow down older phones to make you feel like its time to upgrade.

Broke both my wrists while BMXing after a failed landing. Had to push the bike with both broken wrists home.

That sounds terrible. Worst I ever had was shattering my collarbone while skateboarding.

That's one of scumbagier things apple does. Security my ass if the main bullet point is "now you can use a cute cat emoji filter while videochatting with your friends"
Jailbreak and everything is good, as long as the unsung nerds maintain the repos.

i like minigames when they don't intervene with the flow, for example in a party setting it can be fun

I agree I generally go android but have always jailbroken any apple product. I'm actually thinking about jailbreaking/modding my switch since you mentioned that. That cute cat filter gets popularized through social media then everyone is like I need the update.

I agree in the case of party games or MMOs, and some immersive sim games (plus if you take the minigames out of Mario Party you don't have much of a game :3)

My comment was thinking mostly about h-games where they usually just serve to pad the game time <3

I agree. The hate for mini games generally comes from most of them being used to make the game super grindy.

 

[PatBatemanx]

I also found myself not minding minigames when it's a H-game i really like, just to enjoy the update a little longer (as long as it's not too grindy)

Minigames are another "absolute no."

And we find common ground

Aaaaand you both lost me on that one, I actually quite like minigames, then again I play avn's and the like for the story and gameplay, the spicy scenes are just a bonus.

Anyone else browse itch.io for adult games? That’s where I found Eternum, Ripples, Fresh Women, and My Bully My Lover. What’s cool is seeing even casual or more mainstream players rate them highly.

Steam, on the other hand, feels pretty dry. There are way fewer realistic-looking visual novels. Basically just Being A DIK, plus Desert Stalker, Leap of Faith, and Fresh Women at the top. Compared to that, itch.io feels like heaven.

Gog is getting up there for adult games lately, just wish their process for adding them to their platform was easier, they take a long ass time to approve them supposedly. I think it was lockheart that pointed that out to me.

Also, why does everyone’s top 5 here always seem packed with recent AVNs? Do people just not remember Dating My Daughter anymore?

I prefer Melody and Sunshine Love over DMD, Thief Of Hearts is so-so, graphics wise it's better but story wise it feels like dots phoned it in

Okay but do iphones kill their battery life and lock up/restart more often intentionally? I know that's the conspiracy theory but man... it's so prevalent of a theory for a reason it seems.

Not a conspiracy, pretty sure they were sued and got fucked by the EU because of it, I didn't really like apple before that because of the closed ecosystem, but after reading that they were doing that I flat out refuse to buy any of their products or even recommend them to anyone.

Yes. "It's hard to see how done my stuff is in there with all the steam".

Why are people like this???

That's fair, I'm a bit of a completionist when it comes to games and I think my distaste for minigames is where I have to take a considerable break from the main gameplay to play a puzzle or card minigame for an hour that feels like it was made in 15 mins :3 Or when its like 'mash this button x times to do this basic action' instead of just showing it <3

ohh haven't heard that one in awhile. It is generally just recency bias. Newer games are easier to remember so stick around more in head for top 5s. Also renders and animations getting better with time puts some out, I think. I generally go for great story but not everyone is that way.

 

[Twigless Leaf]

Lack of natural selection common knowledge. Problem is, there is more and more common knowledge that is needed, but less initiatives to pass it on.
After all, radiation and electricity are "invisible" until it's to late.

DmD was great for when it was... but going back to it the renders just turn me off. Same with Ecchi Sensei.

There's no such thing as a good one. Minigames are in the "absolutely do not" for me. It should be a tag so they can be filtered out.

Same! Thats why I dont look at Koikatsu, Honey Select and similar based games anymore, Story may be good and fun, but animations and character faces and models are so boring and tiring.

That's my point doesn't bother me but renders getting better makes some people just dismiss older games. I definitely enjoyed it. I haven't gone back but I can see how it affects the overall consensus. Start going the route of modern video games and see remakes of classics.

I don't mind if the story is great, you miss out on stuff like now & then and once in a lifetime if you go by those criteria.

 

[PatBatemanx]

isn't sinful summer also hs? that one's great

I do really like the wet effects on hs renders. It does them so well.

Yeah, that may be true, but there just so much games(and other stuff to do) and so little time, so you physically unable to check every "good" game, you have to set up some criteria to limit your choice. Mine are graphics and fetishes, so I dont play games with heavy focus on rape, NTR or stuff like physiology deviations(scat, inflation, or guro).
And even then i miss some nice games.

 

[Twigless Leaf]

It's so interesting how so many people talk with absolute statemens.
Maybe I'm simple minded, but I if it looks fun, I try it out. Even if it takes weeks till my laziness yields the ol' horny.
