Which game did you specifically mean because the main character used here is in many games? Plus some people (like myself), have mentioned the creation of other games they are working on themselves? Quote a specific picture and we can tell you
My 1st try .. only a couple of hours in DAZ but I can take the truth.. willing to learn. I know.. maybe I jumped too far and I should learn the basics but oh well.. worth trying.
(P.S. don't really like her innocent face, my goal at the end is to make her a cum slut sometimes)

Maybe both?
For the moment I was (still) using preset lights, poses and stuff and see some limits..

I don’t normally help people who just want to do these for sex (it’s like buying a sports car and only wanting to drive the speed limit), but why the hell not, I’m in a good mood.
Don’t worry too much about lighting, as presets can take care of that. It’s one of those things where you’ll bitch about forever but as long as it isn’t terrible, most people won’t notice it. Kinda like driving. I do most of my lighting outside of Daz. I make it very dark, then brighten what I want people to see in other programs.
Now look at your camera angle, you should have zoomed in more. Since you just want sex, zoom in a lot more to get the attention on her. It will make it feel as if the audience is actually there witnessing what’s going on rather then looking from across the room. The way you have it is good if you have people around the edges and your trying to show them. Like a family/friends hanging out at a party. Notice how in movies they have it pictured from the waist up when talking, and feet to head when there performing an action. Since you just want her to fuck, look at porn and see the angles they use and the close ups. The ones with pictures are better than the movies because movies have many shots while pictures have to tell everything in a couple. Here’s some of my stuff to show you how I do different angles focusing on the character with some also showing the environment. This is from the game I’m working on. Guess a few teasers aren’t the worse thing. I’m not saying these are perfect, just how I do it as you can get a better idea of what I mean. Speaking of
So everyone has a different way of doing things. Think of it like dancing; one isn’t better than the other, they all just have there own strengths and weaknesses. Look at mine, look at OhWee , look at lexx228 and you’ll see we all do things differently. From lighting, to angles to even what we’re trying to portray. Basically, figure out what you want people to see and then figure out how they see that. Then after you’ll be like us who just bitch about our own work when no one else cares

Also (and this goes for everyone who makes these, which is why I posted the damn thing here and not just a PM), don’t be afraid to ask for help. Maybe your trying to do a certain image but know what resources/angles/lighting would work. Just make sure the person your asking does something similar to what your trying to accomplish. Basically; everyone has there style, so there advice would be based off there respective style and maybe not yours. We’re all technically artist and we all want our community to grow.
Hell, if you get really good, people ask start asking for request and some even offer you jobs. That’s when you know you’ve done something really good. Best of luck to you

Your not the only one friend. A lot of people don’t think outside the box. It’s just one a quick sec scene and that’s it. Hopefully I’ve encouraged you to think bigger. Not saying sex stuff is bad, it’s just limited. Tell a story with your sex. Maybe some kinky weird shit in a non traditional place. Take comics for example; how would you imagine Catwoman to fuck? Like some BDSM stuff where she makes you call her “Mistress,” while she wipes you down. Now that would be something good, and also something I am working on
Pictures tell a story and who does it better than movies. That’s how I see it. I think now you’ll start noticing good renders from ones who don’t know what they are doing. Then again, I like to tell stories in my work. It’s my style of doing things. Like I said, don’t be afraid to ask for help.

I'm lazy when it comes to lighting these days. A reason why a lot of the stuff I do outdoors is that there are a lot of cool outdoor HDRI's out there.
You must be registered to see the links
has a bunch of free HDRIs. A few of these are indoor situations, but they work best in outdoor situations, or where you need an outdoor environment that is providing light through a window or something.I've done the specific light setup too, without HDRIs, but I've grown lazy in my old age. Thanos247 and lexx228 spend more time on their lighting than I do for the most part, at least as far as I can tell, and it shows in the quality of their renders.
Anyways, working with HDRIs can give you some pretty good results, so especially for beginners that want to feel good about their first batch of renders I recommend the HDRI route.
BTW, if this is greek to you, under Render settings/Environment there is an environment map slider. This is where you'd load your HDRI map, similar to how you do textures for models. Then set to 'dome + scene' and the HDRI will appear in the background. You may need to fiddle with camera angles and perhaps dome rotation a bit to get it to look right.
Sometimes I'll flip on the headlamp on the camera and set it to a really low intensity, say .05-.25, to get the skin textures facing the camera to pop a bit better, or I may add a light or two to augment the HDRI lighting, but often I'm happy with 'just' the HDRI lighting, at least for my rendering style.
HDRIs provide 360 degree lighting, with darker areas of the background providing less illumination, which is why they tend to look more natural. You can also add a ground plane or foreground environment if you don't want to deal with fiddling with ground angles as much. Also, if working with the HDRI only, make sure ground shadow is set to on, so that there is a shadow under your character at 'ground level'. You can 'hide' the dome and still get the light from the dome, with a 'transparent' shadow on the ground, say if you wanted to put a gradient background behind the character in Photoshop or something.
Anyways, you should master the other lighting techniques too, but HDRIs can be real timesavers.

Mine is a bit less sexy, but on a semi-related note how about that Norway vs Australia WWC match today?

So I finally wrapped up Dee's 'alternate timeline' backstory for my 'unauthorized' crossover fanfic Enthralled. Latest batch of panels are here:
For those that haven't checked out Enthralled yet, click on the banner in my sig, that'll take you to the OP with part 1. I've added a bunch of Part 2 panels in a number of different posts. Part 2 starts here, pauses around post #88/panel 80/81, and continues here:
I'm now focusing on other parts of the Enthralled story, and moving the story forward. Dee ended up with 44 panels being dedicated to her alternate backtory
I've shared a variant of this panel before, but here's a teaser from the latest batch.
