discussion What unsolicited advice would you give to porn game devs?

BUT . DON'T. ADD. IT. IN. THE. MIDDLE. You know when it wasn't in the tags and people were playing it. Then that's in and it's ruined.

I mean, games add fetishes in the middle all the time. I saw a game suddenly get "anal" as a tag, which also disgusts some people. So where is the line? Honestly, let the game dev do whatever he wants, as long as he remembers that the customers can come and go.

My man, the best visual novels are text heavy. Think FS/N, Grisaia, Muv-Luv Alternative.

Could we let people have fetishes? I mean, you're not forced to play the games, and there is quite a market. Especially for NTR.

I totally agree, but I also agree that you shouldn't do it in the middle without warning.
That's because it's very important a roadmap or at least a basic roadmap with the main points.

If it adds something I hate in the middle (futa, ntr, etc) that's automatic delete and 1 star rating. Unless completely avoidable. And I mean able to set it doesn't happen.

It's a bit apples and cucumbers though.
I think most people can agree that things like vaginal, creampie, anal, and even (light) male/femdom, etc. are pretty vanilla things. Sure, not everything is to everybody's liking, but be honest here. Have you seen people getting outraged and flaming a dev for adding an anal scene, vs them adding something more controversial?

yep, under those terms, you can think of tags in two big categories: vanilla and hardcore,
and the difference between them is the reaction they trigger when you add them to your game.

I'll preface this by letting you know that I know nothing about the development side of things. So this will be purely a consumer input and my personal opinion. Some of the main things I like in games are variety (especially when models tend to look very similar in different games it can be quite annoying), I love choices that matter in games (not choices where it basically changes the outcome of the next 3 or 4 scenes), I like the addition of being able to toggle on/off certain kinks and the games that have characters with different kinks and personalities (not just the usual every character you meet will deep throat you, balls deep vaginal even if they're a virgin and anal). character customization can be a huge plus ( like different outfits, hairstyles and even MC customization. hope this helps.
