discussion My issues with incest games nowadays:

[sXtnZa]

I agree with your whole list, and I only find a game interesting if the progression system is solid or if the character design really stands out.


But the first time I played a game that checked all those boxes… damn, I thought it was amazing!

It's always amusing that every single landlord/three attractive tenants household seemingly showers with the bathroom door ajar, even when they get a male tenant (who they all grew up with, coincidentally).

People always ask for slow corruption games and when they get it, it's a game that gets regularly updated for 5 years until the first sex scene. Nah, miss me with that shit. It's not ideal but I much prefer girls throwing themselves on the MC than that.

And I also disagree that the MC shouldn't fuck every beautiful woman who breathes. To me, that's the dream that a porn game enables. There's no point to me to put a beautiful female character in a porn game other than to get to fuck her silly.

Other than these points I agree with OP that the genre is very tropey. But, just sometimes, tropes are good and people need to consider what asking for the alternative actually means.

So incest games mostly follow these tropes and I'm bored of them:
1) MC is a handsome chap with a horsecock and girls throw themselves at him after some time.
2) The family is fatherless and the MC establishes himself as the man of the house so now every female member must fuck him.
3) There's a doting mother, one nice sister who loves the MC and a mean bitchy sister who's cold/hostile towards him but becomes his bitch later nonetheless.
4) The progress from conversation to teasing to full blown sex is too quick. Often there's no paying any heed to the taboo nature of the relationship.
5) too many love interests. The MC must fuck every female character in sight. Mom's best friend? Fucked. Best friend's mom? Fucked. Sister's friends? Fucked. Sexy nurse/Doctor? Fucked. Female cop? Fucked. Maid? Fucked. The girl at the coffee shop? Fucked. None shall be spared.
6) doll bodies: every girl/woman has a downright supermodel/pornstar body and face. The tits don't droop even when braless! The skin is perfect without any blemishes and what not. No imperfections of any kind.

Is it too much to ask for something new?

#1 is so true. Endowed is fine but jesus sometimes it would land in her esophagus otherwise.
#3 overdone i agree
#4 i think this is the biggest one. There is a fine line between blueballs/milking subs and teasing. Too quick and its no fun at all....

 

[DNS2022]

As for women's bodies, I agree, I want some kind of variety like muscular women, scars or something else.

Even just models that haven't been used in umpty other games is great.
And don't get me started on those devs that make each and every model the same with barely a change in haircolour, eyecolour and skin complexion.

That's why I love games that have an original visual look to them on top of a halfway decent story/plot

 

[mikeross]

My main issue with incest is: "landlady, tenant, roommate"

Cripes, I really wonder how that one became standard. It's just so utterly lame. Even the whole step-deal is better.

It's either that or no patreon = no budget = no game at all. So really, it's either some default input which the player can change OR no game at all. You pick. At least if all devs making incest stick to the same rule (landlady, tennant, roommate), players know what's meant and can fill in the blanks. Most often these are literally blanks as you can change the relationships via an input.

 

[hallo14]

i think all of the points must be like this.

I pick a patch.

Also, I don't believe no patreon means no budget, many games aren't on patreon.

 

[azobo12]

its rare to find a good incest game

 

[setzer]

Away From Home kinda strays from this path.

MC is kind of a dick and bird-dogs all the LI, some by violently hurting someone close to the LI.

Still the too many LI though.

i mean it is a fantasy so to each their own. your best luck is to make your own game with what you want but it might not do very well which could be a problem if you decide to devote all your time to it

 

[Cocopebbles]

The only point I'll agree on is point #6 because there's a lot of incest games where the mom or the aunt look like as you put it supermodels/strippers now if the mom had you as MC at a young age, I can see the mom and aunt still looking fairly young but with those type games it's never really clear how old the mom is when she gives birth to the MC so a lot of times it's left up to wild speculation/interpretation one of the few incest games so far that I thoroughly enjoy playing is Grandma's House especially the Nana/Allison character you can actually tell she's old she has defined wrinkles and generally shows her age but she's still a good looking character despite that but I will say this I definitely don't want a character that looks like it's been rode hard and put up wet or looks like a used up old catcher's mitt.

 

[ChaosLoli]

I definitely like a slower burn than all that.

Referring to grandma's house? if so, then yes some of the interactions the MC fucks them right away but then there's other's where it's a very good slow burn

 

[helpfulsunglasses]

I hate the "land-" workaround most of all because there's a good corruption game to be found renting out apartments to struggling women who you eventually force to "pay the rent" in other ways. But you can't use 'land-x' in a description because people will mean assume it's code for incest and get mad when its not.

#2 "Man of the House" trope isn't common at all, it's always a sniveling mammas boy and mommy is so desperate for cock she turns to him as a replacement for her true love: your father. "Man of the house" implies authority and dominance but you don't often see that. "Cure my Addiction" is one of the few where the MC ends up actually in charge and that's not even incest! There's a reason there's been no less than 5 attempted spinoffs/remakes of "Big Brother" after all. If you don't takeover the rent and put mom over your knee (preferably literally, do love a good discipline spanking game) for overspending it's not man of the house. I don't even remember if "Man of the House" itself fully lived up to its name. If MC defers to mom it's not.

Try Blended Family. But probably father is killed too...

My sister's devious plan, father still a live, and nice tits not too big, unfortunately abandon, like so many gems in the past...

I have to say I also get tired, about all the fucking, no story, just fuck one nameless chick after the next...

MSDP was one of the ones you could pick her age, too.
