discussion Is gameplay important to you?

[lookingcooljoka]

The story is the most important.

depends in the mood and the quality of the game.Sometimes u just want a quick fap and i want to go to a game,reach the sex scenes and do my job.Just simple stuff.But sometimes quality of the game just forces u to take it more seriously.For example desert stalker isnt just a game i play for the fap

 

[wierdzz]

i prefer a game with lots of gameplay, as much a one can enjoy the sex scenes i do also like enjoying the story and any gameplay that it gives me, that's why i like RPG maker style games.

 

[DragonsFear]

it really depends, but in general i prefer a good story with calculated scens instead of just random jumping from one to another

 

[SquirrelMonkey]

story is most important because most "gameplay" tends to feel like padding

Story is key otherwise just look at image galleries. Gameplay can be fun if it isn't just there to server as a grind

 

[Dick Tracey]

I'll play a game with crap gameplay/good graphics, I won't play a game with good gameplay/crap graphics.

 

[memowho]

i prefer no gameplay just story and some choices.

 

[AFMercer]

Yes, there's games I've tried several times that look good but I just can't get through due to the gameplay

 

[Gorion]

Do you prefer games with little to no gameplay so you get to the sex scenes quickly (like NPC games for example) or games that actually play like games but with sex scenes?

Both, with a third element 'story.' The gameplay elements, story, choices, and nudity/sex scenes all come together to make it fun for me. I *can* play games with only story, only gameplay, or only sex/nudity. But they're usually not as good to me. Some story-only VNs are amazing and good though, it just depends how well they're done. For me, i'm not just here for a quick fap. If i was, id hit a porn site. Im here to play cool games and read good stories, all in one packaged deal. Theres not really a lot of games like these, short of these lol Its a niche.

 

[Big9]

I find both entertaining

 

[Qwerty963]

Depends on the mood sometines just wants a quick fap

 

[jedichip]

grind kills a story which makes it just another game . novels make you laugh or at least feel something. grind is a joke never needed in any game if you want to have your story appreciated... thats all I have to say about that thanks for listening

 

[conzibald]

if there is no story or gameplay i would rather just go to one of many porn sites and jerk there. But i find gameplay incredibly important! and even vn's light on gameplay instead need a good ui as many of them have alot of clicking if they are say sandbox type. where you have a list of to do's to just see some scenes when they could have scrapped sandbox and just have each character a linde of events.

 

[Maximmillian]

its always a plus for me if it has some kind of gameplay, since the sex part feels like a reward for playing ... but unfortunately i can count on one hand the games that do it right.

 

[Skrotum]

I mostly play stories, I don't need gameplay there. I just like my comfort feature as the revert function that Renpy has to offer. If there is a cheatmod that shows the consequences of an action, I will use it. I want to enjoy the story and not solve a difficult task. For that I could just work in my job.

 

[DDSIR]

This question is very profound
I hate complicated choices
But good feedback will increase my acceptance
So I think gameplay is important
Simple pleasure is not real fun

 

[yibifi2784]

If the gameplay actually adds to the experience, that's great, but devs shouldn't add gameplay just to have it.

 

[MattShizzle]

Yeah, but I'm not looking for any sort of challenge. More about picking what to do. I HATE kinetic novels, but also hate when they make it difficult.

 

[NateDawg59]

I don't mind having things to do or even grind a little, but you can keep your button mashing must click at a certain speed minigames.

 

[MattShizzle]

Oh, yeah any kind of grinding is absolute bullshit and bad. Lots of it is unacceptable. Minigames at all are a bad thing and devs that add it are assholes.
