discussion What do you all think of games where you have to "lose" to see the porn?

[gostek]

I don't like games like this or those that force you to be a cuckold

 

[nemesis8727]

You mean like all the TinkerBell games... I hate it.... need to save every chose because 50/50 its a game over sex scene.

 

[Sybarita]

Side scrollers where you play a female and only see the sex scenes come to mind.

Personally I can't find the logic in them. Seems to me the scenes should be a reward not a punishment (if you can call it that). And if they are being used as the "punishment" what's the point in beating the game?

I personally dont really like them, especially if the game doesnt feature good enough save/checkpoint system where i can easily get back to the spot i was where i was "forced" to get defeated to actually get a scene. It makes sense in some cases, ex. where your char gets raped after getting defeated, but still, not a fan.

May I introduce you to our lord and savior Monster Girl Quest?

Have to admit that Monster Girl Quest is one of the best case scenarios for the "losing = sex" archetype, albeit some of it is quite gruesome. It does have quite a good story and actually decent combat though, so it's overall a praised game in my book.
NTR games that does it on the other hand are for a quite special kind of audience I guess? Definitely not for everyone

My firth thought about this is all of the OneOne1 games, you have many branching routes and to see the most depraved routes you tend to need to lose all the missions and all the main boss fights. On one side I do think it's a little frustrating on the gamer side as I like winning. BUT knowing that they as the characters are becoming useless adds to the thrill right?
If it is linear that you ONLY get lewd scenes from losing and only 2 branching stories then that would suck and i'd ditch it

 

[KinkCookie]

Hate them in general.

There are some exceptions which allow going back or reverting to a earlier choice but there are only a few.
Maybe some people like this kind of game and grind, but for me it is about the porn and the possibility to interact with it. And that's it.

Great game, just gotta be careful with some game overs as some are tame and others can be stuff like vore. Alice best girl BTW

[thestrokes2]

Not my thing. Feel as though it just ruins the overall pacing of the game especially if it's a combat style game, you'll have to fight the same enemy twice or even three times just to get a scene.

 

[blue_sparrow]

"Is It Wrong to Repay the Debt in a Dungeon" is halfway decent card battler for the H genre, but an "efficient" play through basically never resorts to any scenes. So you might as well play a real card battler.

 

[BirdPonyo]

so long as it doesn't lead to an game over I think they're great, especially if there's corruption.

How could you say that!!! There are so many best girl competitors! I CAN'T CHOOSE

 

[IchibiKano]

My only real issue with them, personally, is that the scenes are too scattered. You can't really develop a "relationship" with a character when there's only like one or two scenes with any given npc.

 

[Here4thefap]

I for one am one of those big belly preggo lovers, so this type of game hits me even harder. Since a TON of games have their preggo content usually as an endame or game over kinda thing. Literally makes the point of playing the game obsolete..... But I guess you take what you can get

 

[Tizuki]

Yea i never understood the concept of having to lose to get the scenes, to me that is completely counter-intuitive to what a game is. I do agree that it is bad game design to have that implemented, and going into the whole cuckold thing, if that is your goal in the choices you make then its not really losing in that scenario is it?

 

[mcduff2006]

I do always have mixed feelings about these games. I'm naturally someone who wants to win a game and therefore can struggle to see all there is wit these games.
A happy compromise for me is having the loss become forced as part of the game, or having a dark path mechanic where you can choose to save people or not, with varying scenes.

 

[LewdistMaker]

If it's a Female MC then I don't mind, I've played so much of them that I've gotten used to them.

Male MCs? Not a huge fan to be honest. I would rather they make the npcs 'lose' (like in Virgin Invader) than the other way round.

 

[escanor9]

I don't mind them when they have battlefuck elements to supplement the content or if you beat the game you can just unlock all the scenes anyway.

 

[jonata203]

Not a problem for me if u can continue playing and not have to do all the things all over again

 

[Kaeng_Nai]

It's kind of irritating because while it's a win/win situation, where you either win by completing the objective or you win by losing and getting the porn, it doesn't feel good that you can't have both the completion and porn as a reward for winning
