Any idea why there are so few games with hyper proportions?

There are so many artists, 3d modelers, and animators that do hyper sized, asses, hips, tits, and dicks. But for some reason when it comes to nsfw games they are extremely rare. Giant tits and dicks are not as rare, but as a fan of small waist, then over the top huge ass and hips there is just not much out there game wise. I would say this is just me having niche tastes but as i said there are plenty of creators doing stuff with this just not for games. Any idea why this is?

The creators of hyper content tend to not be interested in long form narrative works, and when they do make longer form content the player characters and a great deal of the NPC's tend to be futanari or hyper dudes with hyper dicks and those games are sausage fests with characters usually having the depth of a puddle. Aside from that hyper ladies are somewhat niche.

To add on to this, hyper content isn't really compatible with conventional narratives at all. Someone having a body part that is too big for them to fit through doorways, or maybe even too big for them to walk at all, can make for an interesting image, but not much more. It's not impossible to write about people with such conditions, but it is severely limiting or requires a lot of extra worldbuilding to support.
Alternatively, the physics of hyper stuff can be ignored and the whole issue of size side-stepped, but in my opinion this just comes off as comical when the hyper proportions are shown in non-sexual situations and nobody is reacting to them. Maybe you could play up the comical aspect of it, but for me personally it's a turn off.

a survival horror where ghosts are after your gigantic dick and it shrinks one inch each time they touch it.
you also have a crosshair in the middle of the screen and if it touches anything lewd (nude paintings, porn on tv, ghosts flashing you, etc.), the dick gets bigger and starts making moving harder, such as being unable to turn around in narrow corridors, and it may even obstruct the view in front of you.
the crosshair could be substituted with eye tracking tech.

If you notice a common theme, they tend to be 2d because a factor no one has pointed out yet, is that its hard for many devs to do so with 3D models or unless its Honey Select which I am not a big fan of.

Superhuman, Demon Deals, Taffy Tales, Sex Note, some of the more popular games with hyper models off the top of my head would be 2d.

Then you have EpicLust who knows what he's doing, makes great models, is a good writer, but curse him he just does not want to do a game that properly develops the love interests, unless Barbarian Conquest does and I can eat my hat.

Since I'm an 3dx artist starting a game I've been also wondering the same, as anyone who has read my recent threads and polls can tell. I've also been doing research for a while now lurking around adult games forums and reddits.

Here is my take so far:

First, most people refer to anything with sex in it as "adult games", but I've come to like making the distinction between "adult games" and "porn games". Adult games favor much more story and character's depth. As such, people looking for these are much more forgiving about things like art quality and much less about things that break the immersion. While I think "porn games" are those favoring the sex and focuses more on the "physical" fetishes.

I think not many people make that distinction and so, "porn games" are often looked down as just "bad adult games" by those looking for "adult games". You can already see it here when it's been said that characters not having enough depth or hyper stuff being too absurd for a proper narrative are problems of the kink. However, if you like hyper content you would know already that shouldn't be a problem. I doubt there are many people hoping for drama, deep characters and emotional stories when looking for hyper content. Why? Well, hyper is mostly a "physical" kink and as I said that's really meant for "porn".

As you mentioned, there are plenty of creators making hyper content, not only that, a lot of them are very popular. So, yes, I do think there is an audience for games with hyper content. But the game has to fully embrace it, so people looking for an "adult game" know it's not for them and make easy to ignore those complaining about it anyway. Which there will always be. I mean, for crying out loud, I've seen people complaining about bimbos in games with "BIMBO" in the name. :HideThePain:

So, if there are creators and an audience, why there aren't many games?

Well, I'd say often these are artists who learned for the sake of making art they want and just want to make their images and videos. Game making involves a lot more and takes more time. Moreso if they are already popular artists, why risk their income?
I feel artists making games it's often people who learned to make art specifically for making games in the first place. At least that's my case. And specifically talking about 3d, it leads me to this: it takes a lot more learning and effort to make good hyper content than the typical image for a vanilla game. So, the bar for making the game is higher and though there is an audience, it will never be as big as something a game like BaDIK can pull. Put all that together and you got a recipe for hyper games drought.

Anyway, sorry for the long post, it's just a topic I'm really interested about. I mean, this is without even getting into what really is hyper and what not :KEK:

A creator will add hyper to the niche soup for the same reason you added futanari.

This is fiction, people are exploring their fantasies and creators can employ whatever world building they want. If it appeals to a person, they will simply go just along with it e.g.
Superhuman, Demon Deals, Taffy Tales, Sex Note, some of the more popular games with hyper models off the top of my head would be 2d.

Then you have EpicLust who knows what he's doing, makes great models, is a good writer, but curse him he just does not want to do a game that properly develops the love interests, unless Barbarian Conquest does and I can eat my hat.

Yes. But the question was why are there so few games. I added to the explanation why that is so. No one said anything negative about hyper content, just explaining why there isn't a lot of it.

As DynamiteJoe/RenMan3DX mentioned 3D Hyper can take more effort than 3D vanilla, because vanilla can use off the shelve Daz3D characters, Daz3D character morphs, Daz3D poses, DAZ3D clothing, DAZ3D clothing morphs, DAZ3D animations and default textures. The further you stray from default the more customization you will need to do and considering hyper appeals to a niche audience, it is a lot of extra work to appeal to a smaller audience.

Yeah like I said in the post, there are actually a lot of hyper titty games but hyper ass and hips games are hard to find. Maybe it has something to do woth posing the models?

I can say with hyper ass, hyper dick is required otherwise posing just doesn't work.

Oh yeah of course, I have been told that hyper dicks and asses are hard to pose by a few creators, however I also see plenty that seem to have zero issues with it.
I'm not into hyper personally, but I'd imagine you'd get the hang of it with practice. Just requires a little more than normal posing.

I dont like room filling hyper or anything just a lot bigger than normal big and only for ass and hips. That's one big issue with hyper stuff is the range goes from "just kinda big, to as large as a planet" lol
