discussion Do you play for story or for porn?

[HTYYHRK]

I'd say characters are more important than story. The appeal of a comic or VN over standalone images is that there's some level of connection to what's happening to the characters and what they're doing. Story is helpful to support the experience, but we are still here for the fap so I have to be in a particular mood to want to play a game that is "story heavy," if it's spending a lot of time without anything titillating happening I'll likely get bored.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. If the characters are deep, well-crafted, believable and drive the story in an erotic and sensual way, that's what works a lot better for me than the story or even porn.

A great example for me is "Man of the House", the plot really is filter-thin, but the characters are so intriguing, that I keep on playing, just to see how they're written, and how they'll react.

Besides characters, story and porn, I would like to offer a 4th element, and that's sensuality. What I mean with that is the erotic situations and plots the game describes. A father with his daughters, that's all good and well, but the way that some games really create those very intense, incredibly erotic situations with just the right kind of language, can be so powerful. I've enjoyed certain games thoroughly with porn scenes that are finished in 5 seconds, with a story that makes your eyes roll, but the highly erotic situations (with the right kind of pervy use of p, language) just makes it intense. I guess you could categorise it as porn, but I do see it apart from what others have been describing here.

Such a Sharp Pain is an excellent example (but then everything just clicks in that game, characters, story, sensuality and porn)

What the title says. Also, do you continue playing after doing your thing, or do you close the game until the next time?

Both

As most have said, it can vary depending on my mood, but the story can make the porn so much better. For example, Lab rats has pretty bad porn (IE: Naked women, cumshots, etc), but the mind control aspect of it, which is a fetish of mine, really does it for me. I like the corruption of the characters. Gets me every time.

Another game that is porn light, but story rich is Masters of Raana. Turning a bratty girl into a submissive slave... Mmm Yes please. Again, the porn is rather lacking in that game.

Other games have really great graphics/porn, but the story is just so bad, I will hold down CTRL to fast forward to the porn, give it a fap and delete the game.

I would recommend "Long Live The Princess" If you want an amazing story line, and really good porn scenes.

Long Live The Princess

is that game on LC? (googled it and couldn't find it straight away) (I'm also pretty new here, chatting. I know one rule is not to spam post.)

Wait, these games have story elements to them? Nows someone tells me.

The game needs to have a somewhat decent story at the very least. games that are just "oh heres a girl you've known for 3 hours and now she really wants your cock for some reason" are not enjoyable.

 

[Phemsee]

I honestly can go either way tbf, like, if the story is shit but the porn is great, sure, I'll continue, and if the story is great but the porn is shit, still a hell yeah either way I remain entrained

 

[Ryuku Makimoto]

Gotta have a good story but the porn can't just be the usual rocking back left and right.

If I just want to jack off, I do not play video games. if I play an adult video game, it is for the combination of gameplay, story and porn. Sadly, the vast majority of adult games are very lacking in story and gameplay, in which case I just rip the porn out and throw out the rest. Essentially, personally, I enjoy video games with porn(eroge), far more than, porn video games (nukige).

 

[Aerythox]

personally I hold off jacking off when there's a story involved, sure I may be blue balling myself at the moment but I can also release anytime I want. I can only play a few VN's with post nut clarity mainly for the story, the erotica functions in other VN's are there to enhance the story experience

 

[ariel1234]

For the porn, but the story has to be at least decent and the better the story the better the porn

 

[Yog-zathoth]

It depends, some games i play only for the story to the point of skipping the porn because is the game weakest part, some games have a awful story but really good porn and others have a little of both and after fapping i play it for the story

 

[dionzx]

for me it depends a lot on the game, if the story is really good I'll even skip the sex part, but if the game is boring I'll just go straight to sex

 

[DoctorWells]

Need to have a somewhat enaging story and characters, otherwise you could just look at the CGs

 

[Kekrekt]

It's for porn, but if the story is good, it will be a pleasant surprise for me

 

[bilmong]

it's kinda both. Story has to be there at least a bit, but at the same time I skim a lot of text because most games (especially VN style) have a ton of filler that is not very interesting. Nature of the medium i guess, they're just mostly not written very well. So they can't be TOO bad, but I don't expect them to really be GOOD either.

 

[rira_75]

Its for the porn, but I'll give the story a chance.!!

 

[Renewed6105]

It's a combination of both, but once I'm done I'll save and come back next time.

 

[Dnch2019]

Mostly porn. its rare when a game is good enough writing wise that porn takes a backseat one was a game where a girl is like a spirit in the sea cant remember the name. the other was ethans legacy. Also just cus a story is convulted and long doesnt mean its good.
