I'm deeply sorry for you man, but it doesn't work with me I don't feed trolls, better for you to search elsewhere if you need to get facepalm reactions... ;)
What? Having her mouth open all the time is a part of Nova's design, she's a huge dork and that's what makes her adorable.

Then you should have worded your post a little bit better, because I assure you that you sounded like a full fledged troll, not someone that was expressing love toward her.
Anyway let's say it was a misunderstanding and yeah, she's adorable on that I couldn't agree more with you. :) (y)

Actually a likely possibility if all the legal questions about that can be worked out. AI could also be used to voice them as well.
I think with that music creators themselves will start changing the legality of copyright.
Remember the best way to deal with shit like this is to create competition.

I wouldn't be too sure about that. Legal stuff like that is often very persistent in most countries, even if reality has moved far beyond it.

So what you guys are basically saying is that royalty free license holders are regressive puritanical imbeciles and it would be wiser for Caribdis or any other adult game dev to just hire independent artists to compose tracks for their game instead.
Pretty much, though in most cases it's not the artists themselves kicking up a fuss about it. Many of them have no objections to their music being used in adult games. It's the large music libraries they sign up with for extra exposure that prohibit it... even if the artists themselves give you the green light!

The name "Epidemic" really suits them just right. I think of them and yersinia pestis comes to mind...

In Drifty's case, it was actually a musician who initiated the DMCA claim... It turned out that she's a devout Christian and the song he used had been written by her for her wedding... where she also sang it to her now-husband. Then she saw it used in a "porn game"...
Awkward. :LOL:

Custom music is an option, but it's super expensive. Caribdis shouldn't consider that until he buys himself a place like Luna's uncle has and goes on early retirement. :HideThePain:

That's why I specifically said license holders, not artists (though as you pointed out, some artists may find issue with the use of music as well, but in that case they shouldn't really have handed over the rights off to their work to some faceless company if the piece means something to them. But that's just my opinion on the matter).

Or he could just put it up as a Patreon goal. Because...you know, that's the point of those things, really. :whistle:

Thanks, I didn't check my mail today and missed it.

Yep, getting licensed music for an AVN is a lot trickier than it might seem at first. The good days when those companies didn't give a damn are gone. Thankfully there are plenty of open-minded musicians out there, but I wish those companies stopped throwing logs under devs' feet like this.

More quality, story-driven AVNs (as opposed to "porn games") such as Eternum might help remove some of the stigma surrounding the genre.

Shutterstock was also in mind for Ocean, but they wanted way to much money from him and for a special deal - like the one DPC has acieved - he is way to small.

I asume the same counts for Caribdis, he has ~3x the patreons of Ocean, and DPC has close to ~3x the patreons of Caribdis.

I've found the perfect response that doesn't give them any benefit of reacts.

Thank you my friend, I will think of something similar using Nova maybe, it would be more fun to use ( hoping the mods will not delete it too).
In general I prefer to ignore these people completely, I think it will leave them more angry and scorned, there's nothing more hurtful for someone seeking recognition then being completely ignored letting them know they are worth nothing at the same time it's the best chastisement possible imho, though it's not always simple to be so calm and do it, I admit it. :)

I pick and choose. If I reacted thusly upon every occasion that presented itself, I'd never get anything else done - a simple name hover and "ignore" usually suffices. This is just for when I want the added benefit of making a statement to them once (just one reaction, Vasily), and then not see any reaction or comment they may have in response. :giggle:
