discussion What is the point of using real porn images in games?

[User_101810]

I for one find them weird and lazy but each to their own

I never saw the appeal either. Have not played a game with real porn actors ever and don't want to.

 

[Mister Raptor]

Real Porn is the first thing I filter out.

Animations aren't an automatic as well as quite a few number of people aren't interested in Cartoon/Anime/3D Models

It's just different and preferences... Basically there's a cost to any method you choose...
Hell, you can even choose none... Plenty of people enjoy reading erotica with no visuals.

i play porn games to look at non-real people, so its an immediate no when i see real porn in games

 

[User_85377]

Not my cup of tea either. If I wanted real porn, i would just watch the source material and not have it pieced out and given to me in small clips.

not everyone is an artist but some people are still pretty good a writing smut

I just don't understand it, there should be some suspension of disbelief in a game. The experience of something different and using some actress from some porn that is acting is just meh. Especially when there are so many ways to do character models or animation that could make it better. It's along the same lines for me as games that are just straight tagged with basic sex and nothing else. Whats the point? Seems boring.

yeah, always a turn off for me.

Do you have any idea the cost and time needed for custom 2d art? Real porn is just easier and there is a whole lot of it.
Daz or unmodded HS/KK are not better than real porn, btw

 

[LewdDewd2024]

The devs suck at 3D rendering and drawing or are lazy.

 

[moodss]

This type of game requires editors to put in more effort, but unfortunately many authors have not achieved it

 

[Dornkirk]

Honestly I love a good game with real porn. They make me immagine different settings for the original material. Unfortunately, few of these games are well written.

 

[sourpuss]

Just the temptation of pre-existing images. You can see it appealing to someone with ideas but no capacity to draw or render. I've never seen it work out well and I don't think I've DL'd one in at least 6 or 7 years.

It's bit scummy most of the time because of copyright alone. Pretty sure most of them just take stills from videos. Also you do get pics for sex scenes unless you set up proper photoshoot.

Although setting up photoshoot and filming seems even harder to do than using Daz3D etc. Definitely more expensive. I guess you can make a film to sell on the side.

Anyway, not a big fan. I don't think you can do proper VN like this. You can make complex scenes with Daz from the comfort of your home.

 

[bigo245]

two reason I can think of is that some people prefer it or it makes it easier to make the game

 

[cucumber3620]

I never found them enticing. but to each their own.

 

[MOCO9559]

Like many others already wrote, I don't really like those and filter them out. If I want to watch real porn, I can do that. But the point with all those games is to cherish a different style and approach. So I rather leave those real porn games alone.

 

[arget]

My guess is it's just easier than making their own art.

 

[falseside]

It eliminates most options for customization and limits storytelling strictly. I never liked it.

I play games for the art and pixelated screenshots of porn isn't art.
