Just tried it for about 30 mins, didn't find any scenes outside the two on the mission board and there doesn't seem to be a depth for corruption thus far, losing interest

Honestly, I would prefer those games over this one. Regardless of one's opinion on how well basic RPGM mechanics mix with making a porn game, there's still some visible sign of effort of trying to make an h-game in those. For example, Raiouger basically has you wasting time with doing RPGM battles in a giant mech to pass ingame days, so the player can see the FMC gets harassed and fucked by the town people, gradually turning her into a slut.

There's padding, but there's also actual h-scenes with some overarching narrative to them, even if said narrative is just, "This same person fucks the girl multiple times over several days, making her more of a slut."

And that's probably how you could describe a fair amount of RPGM games here, h-games with a decent amount of padding.

But Explorers feels like the reverse of that. It feels more like someone made a basic RPGM game with some slightly unique mechanics so it's not immediately indistinguishable from the rest, but then tacked on some h-scenes as an afterthought for marketability.

I stopped at some point around the 3rd floor, and then looked at the full save page or two back, (said save isn't full though. There's like 2 or 3 scenes missing for each girl) but it seems like most h-scenes are accessed through taking jobs from the whiteboard in the tavern. There's no exploration or trying to find sidequests, it's all right there. That combined with how most of the scenes seem to be standalone, and they really seem less like an actual part of the game, and more just there so the game can claim it's an h-game for extra sales.

In short, I feel this game is even worse than those kind of games at being an h-game.
I can generally take some padding.
I can generally accept some of that RPGM combat, even if it ain't terribly original.
What I like less is when the rando encounters start to get forced down your throat every 5 steps or something.

But what I hate most of all is when that padding is no longer just something that comes in between point A & B, when it's no longer just rando encounters, but when the game just literally forces you to start grinding that damn RPGM combat just to get ahead. Be it via a gatekeeper boss or something that requires you to just bore you to death grinding for 10 more levels or grinding for money to get the required gear or whatever reason they come up with.

Heck ... I've seen raving reviews here on games that force you to do exactly that just because it has some novel additions to the RPGM basics. All the while forcing dozens of hours of grind down your throat.
All the novel ideas in the world can't keep grinding fun if you're forced to do that for 5 hours straight just to kill 1 boss, only to be forced to go another 5 hrs to kill the next boss.

Tbh, this somehow pisses me off. Like, if I wanted to play a real JRPG, there are tons out there so much better made and in-depth with better story, mechanics, visuals, etc. Why do these porn game producers even think they can compete with that and not focus on what makes their game sell in the first place? It baffles me.....
Have you played sequel or rance games?
Usually the most well known h games have the best gameplay, story and World building.

Player agency is what makes h games better for me, also the feeling of building towards something and having a bunch of female party companions , if it wasn't for that I would just watch porn.

I didn't even liked methil's quest that much, there wasn't even a challenge and it felt like everything was there for the sake of unlocking CGs.

you say full save but on three of them it says memories 8/9, 8/10, and 9/11 so it isn't a full save
No,it is full save. have you count the memories? (for example up left display 9/11,but you can see all 11 memories)
the display number is not right because the save is from another language version

Played Rance. Preferred the older games. Newer ones are a bit too vanilla for my nostalgia.

Please upload the Japanese version too.
We don't host Japanese games; english only. If you're looking for the Japanese version there are a bunch of other sites you can check because it isn't getting uploaded here.

Aside from the other Kagura games release the previous week, what else has there been, I pretty much only play rpg's and avoid trainers/VN's
There are these two. Do note that I've been to busy to actually play any of them, so I can't vouch for how they turn out. At the very least, they seem to be properly translated.

most of the time when an h game tries to be a normal game, it's bad. Mostly cuz they just go and do the same old story each time with very minor changes to the turned based combat and etc.
Legend of Queen Opala is a pretty good game. Maybe the porn part of it is as important as the story and not a properly "less important part", but the plot is thrilling, there's a lot of fun and you need to work a little bit to achieve a decent amount of strength and stuff, so I think some of those games are actually fun.
