Developers using SEX as a Reward

[Andy02]

Question or observation why do most developer believe sex is the end? Instead of the beginning of building more stronger relationship, is it because of the taboo incest? Like if the MC has sex with his mom then nothing more to build on or sisters friends first time too me is only the start, so much more can happen to cultivate love or brake the relationship based on choices you make. Not asking for any changes just question or observation from your point of view sometime we learn from asking.

Some feed back from developers

I can only speak for myself and I totally agree with you, however, I also feel that the build up is just as much fun and creates a more interesting game/story.
Once that build up is established, there is so much room for even better events/scenes in my opinion, exploring and developing each relationship on a sexual level.

I agree. All too often developers fall into the trap of making sex the "reward" for going through the motions and completing a series of quests. Ironically, porn game developers seem to be better at avoiding this trope than large AAA-developers like, say, Bioware. As for Long Live the Princess, I will be forced to deal with this issue in one way or another since the story is nonlinear. If we assume that the story takes 30 in-game days to complete (this number might change based on testing and scale the Patreon will afford me), what happens if you, say, seduce one of the girls completely by day 10? I'm going to have to write scenes that take place after you establish a romantic/sexual relationship whether I like it or not because I'm sure as hell not going to just ditch a girl's story just because a player blazed through it to get to the sex. In Long Live the Princess, there will be several routes that achieve different forms of sex. For example, some girls can be seduced the traditional way, manipulated through a spell, or both. Each of those is separate from the other, which means you will often have interesting things to do even if you complete one of them. I have a lot of things to say about this topic, but I'll save them for a future post for the $10 backer tier. Rest assured, however, I do keep things like this in mind at all times.

I am disappointed.

I came here to see which devs were pimping themselves out only to find out you meant in games.

The votes already have it, being scandalous is the better option.

That's what patreon is all about.
It's either someone make a 0.0001 build with 3 sex scenes and have people bashing them for too rapid build up, or take it slow and have people complaining about how they're milking it.
You can balance it out and appeal to both of these groups but that takes time. You can't have monthly updates, fap material and good story build up all at once.

, "That's what patreon is all about."...I would add that's what the gamer is about as well...the quick fix.
There are some that put a real effort into balance and story but not many of them make it to the heavily supported top 50 ranks on Patreon.
Apart from kinks that create success such as Shota, Incest, Monster or Hentai content and the usual fantasy setting most games deliver a "easy to read from the get go" kinda story. It's been a long while since I have seen a twist I haven't seen coming a mile away in any adult game really which sadly proves that people might say story first but what they really mean is sex first and foremost.

The same thing happened to me when Emma Watson said she would "reward" anyone who helped her find her missing rings...



sex is equally enjoyable by both participants... men and women women and men men and women and women women and women etc.
so sex isn't a reward. blowjobs are a reward, because that's kinda one-sided

I don't like sluts, so for me the choice becomes either over and over the same vanilla sex (which might get boring to watch) or the reward.

To keep it interesting, take a look at DMD. Still no sex with D, but plenty of fap material with side characters.

First time with a partner is mostly vanilla sex for both of you, until you get to know more of their likes or dislikes. That's the start of building a strong sex life and relationship well my opinion. This would mean experience is required with any new partner in order to have great sex..

Yes, but there is the difference between porn and real life.
In real life, sex is great, but still only occupies a very small portion of your time.
In a porn game however it's the most important part.

In real life, I have absolutely nothing against vanilla sex. While some kinks may be interesting to explore in real life, there are also many which you should stay away from as far as possible, even though you may be attracted to them as a fantasy.

In games, there are some things which I like and others which I don't like so much. This also depends on the game itself.
In DMD, D's attraction is her innocence. If/when she does finally go all the way with F, I think the story is mostly over, because I couldn't bear to watch her being shared with others.
In Katie's Corruption, the NTR part is the main attraction of the game. And seeing that I don't have that much sympathy for Katie, I don't mind that. So in that game, "Sex being used to build from" works for me.

You make good points, I'm looking at this like dating simulator some young men play these games. But no one has a sex simulator ways to improve on vanilla sex looking at your partner for signs their enjoying the action being taken or not, learning so the next time much better. I guess I think even porn can teach. maybe I'm just nuts.. haha

How is Katie's corruption NTR at all, let alone the main attraction? NTR means cheating on the MC, and she is the MC.
For Katie to NTR, you would have to self-insert as her fiance, who is a minor part of the gameplay.

I dont know about everyone else but I always found sex to be rewarding ( ba dum tiss)

Jokes aside, I personally preffer a build up, Dating my Daughter is a great example, building a relationship and slowly progressing to lewder and lewder acts, while offsetting the desire for instant gratification through side characters like the slutty bff. Many Game devs are probably too scared not to jump straight in to the pay off because thats what the paying masses demand, and like it or not the devs arent usually making the game soley for the fun of it. I like the idea of having a pedestal character or two, the ultimate goal, and then having bit characters to facilitate the need we have to see naughty bits asap.

Tell that to rape victims

Tell that to rape victims

Right now scientists are working towards the ultimate betrayal of our right to privacy... literally reading our minds, based on our bodily responses. Their intent is to profile pedophiles who's responses indicate that they are turned on when looking at young children. The subject is observed and recorded walking through a gallery, or while being shown various photographs, their body responds certain ways to different stimuli.
This same science has proven again and again, that women undeniably enjoy being raped... or at least their bodies do.
Often, women are advised.. If you're being raped, don't fight and risk getting killed, just detach and let the rapist do their thing and get it over with. Resisting may be a turn on for the rapist, and being passive might turn them off.
Some suggest that rape is about power, and not about sex, and that not fighting takes away that power.

If a woman can objectify herself, and say "my body, my choice whether I liked it or not" despite the scientific evidence showing otherwise, then the man accused of being a pedophile can likewise claim detachment from his bodily responses, stating that he had no interest in children, despite his body's response.

I'm not saying it's junk science. The responses measured are accurate, but they are the body's response, not "ours".
"we" are not our bodies, "we" are parasites living within an animal. "I" wouldn't enjoy being raped, even if my body liked it.

I am not entirely sure but it sound like you proved my point. As from my understanding enjoyment is different from pleasure. Enjoyment is memory based, looking back on an event with fond memories. Just because the body is stimulated and chemicals are released dosen't mean it was an enjoyable experience.

You tried to say that rape is sex. I wouldn't call it a point. The term rape, can also include sexual assault, where sex doesn't take place at all. For example a woman raped with a broken bottle, by some dickless piece of shit.

My initial point was that a lot of the women I've fucked, enjoyed it more than I did, or at least as much. More rewarding for her than for me, unless she brings some friends along.

no the point i was trying to make is that people who are raped didnt enjoy it.. my apologies if i was unclear in that and sorry for the confusion

the topic "sex as a reward"
had we been discussing "the joy of driving cars" I said cars like to be driven too. and you said "tell that to wrecked cars."

no need to apologize, your tangent expands the discussion... not all sex is good.
some people suck in bed
some old whores are hard to please
there are a lot of variables

I was hoping for a list of female devs who do that. This is really disappointing.

For Katie to NTR, you would have to self-insert as her fiance, who is a minor part of the gameplay.

Well, her fiance could fuck some other girl and force her to watch? If she still has feelings for him. Otherwise, quite impossible.
I believe, lots of people talking about NTR are just ignorant about what they're actually talking about. Talking shit, basically.

Can't say they are female, but a lot of devs pimp themselves out on Patreon. Offering all kinds of rewards for a few bucks.
Make a game that you like... that YOU enjoy working on. Trying to please others, or working on a game that you don't enjoy, yourself never ends well... usually abandoned. If you like your game, chances are... others will too. If you hate what you've created... others will hate it even more. Never sell-out your fans.
Gladly accept patrons who support what YOU do, but when a patron asks for something in return for their money... tell them to fuck off.
