Same. I've never understood this. Almost all major porn games are just porn, not gameplay. This is what Illusion is famous for, too. If you wanted actual gameplay you would play a typical video game, instead.
That's exactly why almost all major porn games are shitty games. If you just want to watch actual porn exists, so go watch those videos. I'll never understand mindset of people who come into "Adult Games" forum and defend "games" that aren't more than a sex animation viewer.
There are one man made or small studio made porn games and some of them have solid gameplay. I can only imagine what developers of those games would've made if they had more budget and manpower. Solas City Heroes, Eris Dysnomia, Holy Knight Ricca, Karryn's Prison, Lona RPG, Station Master, Monster Girl Dreams, Goblin Burrow, Last Evil... I've played all of them, not only they are porn but they are also games and good ones at that so if you are going for "it is impossible to create a good porn game" argument don't bother.
By the way illusion games have simulation type of gameplay and they are famous for it too. For example you can play koikatsu and go to school full of girls you want, have conversations with them, convince them to join your little club, develop dynamic relationships with them, marry them or if you are into that kind of stuff rape them... Also, girls have different tastes depending on their character type so one might like something others don't, meaning there is not one correct answer that you can blindly pick during conversations, meaning you actually need to listen(or read) what they say. But they also react to your actions similar to sims in a sims game, for example you can go to changing room of girls and watch them but if you get caught depending their personality they might run away and become more aggressive towards you next time you talk to them. This simulation is not on the sims game level(infact not even close) but it exists and you can play and genuinely have fun playing it.
I've always assumed the "scene viewer" complaint was just by those who wanted to vent and not a real intended argument, because it it was intended as such... oh boy where do we even start.
No, that's a good argument. People are sick and tired of good looking 3d games turning into yet another cash grab animation viewer. People want good looking AND actually enjoyable porn games. Ever wondered why people are modding skyrim and sims, turning them into porn games? It is because there is not a single decent looking 3d porn game worth playing.
