-monster cocks
-sandbox (at least 90% of the ones I have tried are horrific, there are some good ones)
-mega-boobs mega-ass
-games without agency for the mc (even in harem, which I like, I don't usually want all the chars, give me a choice please)

Not genres but posters who pollute threads with their whining, complaining, and need to know if game includes blah, blah, blah, blah.

Play the damn game and if it is not to your tastes, drop it, and move on.

Nobody else gives a shit about your turnoffs, so stop inflecting them on everyone else and filling the forum threads with useless drivel!

I know it looks like shit, but just take a bite. If it's actual shit, just spit it out.
Consumers want and sometimes need to know what they are consuming. If you are ok consuming shit, cool, but, you know, people will keep asking that stuff regardless of what you think. And, well, a big part of it is a lot of devs mistagging their games, and the tag system not being very useful in the first place.

Sometimes people just don't want to bite the shit even if you can spit it out afterward.

I never really get what people mean by vanilla,
is it monogamous sex only in the missionary position?
would doggy style still be vanilla? what if it's anal?
would a blowjob while getting your prostate fingered by Neopolitan flavored?

I startered wondering that as well, so I google'd it.

Past the first few results that were just porn sites, I found the most useful definition .

Vanilla sex is a term describing any sort or sexual intercourse classed as plain or conventional by social standards. The term was coined by the kink community to describe sex occurring outside their community.
So, it depends on perspective.

Another problem is with harem games without group sex, but where you can have sex with multiple partners being in a relationship with any of them. Is that vanilla or cheating?

Look, if a game has a "Gay" tag, has multiple screenshots of ONLY buff, scantily clad muscular dudes showing off their six packs/effeminate twinks bending over showing cock and balls bulging through their panties, and the description talks about how there's multiple dudes to rail or get railed by, if somebody pops into the thread and asks "Any straight content/Any way to avoid the gay content? I don't like gay stuff :\", people have the right to call them a moron.

Same for if a game is very blatantly furry and for furries, having someone go "ew gross furries, where's the humans/monster girls, reeee" like I've seen for years in multiple threads, people should be able to get upset people can't do so much as read the signs plastered above the doorway, the posters on the outside of the room, and the giant banner that might as well just say "THIS IS A GAME FOR FURRIES OR PEOPLE WHO LIKE FURRY CHARACTERS" before they walk into the room.

While we're on the topic of annoying posting styles, people that go "This game would be great if it didn't have <Kink/Fetish that I hate and NEED people to know how much I hate>". Wow. Great idea. Go find one like that, because nobody's going to completely upend the content in their game to appease one person on a porn piracy forum.

Not everyone is a fan of those kinds of negativity. It's why I started the thread in my signature for people to talk about what tags they LIKE, instead, to try and bring just a tiny bit of positivity here.

Worst genre out there is a salad genre.
You know, "there's money in furries so let's add one to our game" kind of a salad.

I can only recall one game in recent memory where that was the case. Sapphire Safari. They legit admitted in their community server about a year ago that they're mainly making it to cash in on the furry demographic. And that's just the whole game itself, not just adding a character to it. I can't remember a single game where devs went "I want that furry money, so let's add a furry". Most people can spot that type of "We added a thing you like, now give us your money please" pandering a mile away. Usually when there's been no mention of it in the plans for the game before that point.

Speaking of which, I hate when people act like their assumptions are fact, and get angry when they're proven wrong. Very early on with Wild Life, a lot of people missed the part of their goals/project statement on Patreon, which said something along the lines of "There will be MalexMale animations in the future, as well" and just assuming it was always going to have straight content, then getting mad when gay stuff started showing up, crying "the fa*s are taking over, the game is ruined!" and "they're wasting time/development resources pandering to "degenerates"" It was always part of the plan to add gay content to the game, some people just didn't read far enough before they clicked "Pledge". That doesn't meant the straight stuff is going away or not being worked on anymore, lol.

Scat, water sports - f´n disgusting
Futa/Trans, sissification - big no no
NTR - if it´s avoidable ok, but if not, then you made a game for a small percentage of people.
Girls with enormous boobs/asses
monster cocks
Furry,zoo - wack
femdom
Anime

Other things I don´t like in games.

Games that are too grindy.
Why not just make a game that is fun?

Games that are too story focused with very few sex scenes.
If I want to play a game that is over 99% story then I just play a good game on steam.

Games with generic character models.
When I see a game that uses the same models that were used in a hundred other games then i´m out.

Edit:
RPGM: I really developed a hatred for that genre, because most of them are extremely grindy and are not fun.

Freeroam/Point&Click: You could also put it in the RPGM category or other categories, but the freeroam and point&click options rarely work in games. They can kill the flow of the game when you try to make a damn puzzle game out of it or try to lead you through the same damn locations every time, which is extremely tedious.

HTML Games: I can maybe remember one game that was decent, but most of them are poorly made, boring and grindy.

Other Pet Peeves:
When a Dev gets influenced too much by other people and adds genres that just don´t fit to the game and it´s Story. Yep I´m talking about you NTR, Futa fans XD

There are some genres that you can't really notice at first glance, those are usually contextual fetishes that you need to know X story to be aware that is there, and sometimes the titles are just misleading, for example you download a game called love of my life and it turns out it's an NTR game or something like that.

It isn't really about negativity or positivity, it's about misinformation most of the time, which do lead to people hating certain genres they don't want to see but keep seeing anyway despite making an actual effort to avoid it. It's a problem I only have here, though, because every other site I use has a great tagging system and people that tag those games correctly.

That's just a waste of money and lack of focus, so people are entitled to feel mad towards that. I doubt there's a huge demand for that kind of gay content in an otherwise straight game, so why turn on your main audience even for a second? The "wider audience" meme has been a thing in game development for a long time for a reason, just trying to force your way into a bigger demographic doesn't mean it will work, specially if you fit it in with a shoehorn, and that's specially true for games that have taken FOREVER to be developed, such as wild life, so imagine, you wait 2 years for an update just to be shit you don't like aimed towards a percentage of players that's probably no more than 5%.

I don't think listing genres you dislike is helpful. Some people dislike stuff to an irrational level and turn threads into toxic ****.

So, instead of genres, I'm going to list things I generally dislike about games.

- Games that are empty sandboxes. Clicking around in the void is very boring.
- Games that are too grindy / complicated to play. Boring / frustrating.
- Games that have too many LI's. Makes them shallow and uninteresting.
- Random filler scenes with 1-off characters. Pointless filler.

I've dropped games for the first 3 reasons. The 4th is just...pointless and makes me think the developer is just winging it.
All these are problems I have as well. Especially point 3 I recently quit a lot of games I was interested in because I just couldn't deal with multiple LIs and the stupid "polls" which leads to the same two getting multiple scenes and development. If you need a poll to decide who to focus on that means you have no plan for the development of your game.

I hate scat, urination, rape, mind control etc

My problem with most NTR (not inherently a bad genre) is it usually has some form of rape or non consensual behaviour.

Furry, gay, trans ain't for me but that is a taste/sex based issue.

I dislike anything that doesn't have stakes. Most harem games get stale very quickly due to focus on body count without any stakes.

For example Motherless. You have nearly 30 women the MC seduce and impregnate.
Some of them MC fuck after the first scene. Some are married women with their husband not even showing any cuck-like trait just saying shit like "Well since you're such a amazing man and so better than me of course my wife is going to leave me for you. I'm actually happy for her!"

Pretty open on any genre otherwise.

I mean...if you've actually looked at the community for Wild Life there's an absolutely noticeable chunk of people that are very happy that there is gay content in the game. Much higher than just "5%", lol. There's an even larger chunk of people who just don't care and are smart enough to just not engage with that content. You don't even realize that for every update, every month, there's MULTIPLE animations, BOTH gay AND straight, so everyone is happy, lol. Hell, I'm not even sure you realize that updates are every month, not "2 years"

It's never been an "otherwise straight game". The focus and plan for it was always to have content for both gay and straight people. This wasn't shoehorning in anything, this wasn't "pandering", this wasn't "turning on their main audience". The main audience was always going to be both. If a tiny little group of people get triggered because they can't just ignore the """"""degenerate gay content"""""", then nobody besides them is losing anything. I think part of it is just "I hate gay people and I'm mad as hell that there's gay people in this porn game. This game should be based around MY fetishes and kinks instead!" None of these people gave a shit about "wasting money" and "wasting development resources", unless it involved something they hate. Then suddenly they start being concerned.

Anyway, Wild Life was always going to have content for gay and straight people, this wasn't some random change in the middle of development, that was always the plan for it from the very beginning, before development even began. If the idea of making a game like that is really that upsetting to you, because "omg you're wasting money and development time/resources!!!!", and "omg you're catering to 5% of your players, why waste so much time and effort on literally nobody, you're betraying your main audience!!!", I don't know what to tell you.

I am one of those """"5%"""" of players that you say shouldn't have had any content made for them, because it's "a waste of money", a "lack of focus", and "a betrayal of their main audience", by the way, so thank you for that. I like being told that someone deciding to make gay/bisexual content for a game is a waste of time because "Your side isn't big enough, so why make anything for you? You won't give us the most money." Shows what your priorities are.

You know, I just realized, it kind of shows what kind of person you are when you think that optional gay/bisexual content is "a betrayal", doesn't it? :unsure:

The problem is, if every so often the game adds 2 straight animations and 2 gay animations, without the gay content the game could have 4 straight animations instead, taking away from straight content, which, regardless of the community, likely makes up for the largest amount of consumers of the game.

Wild life came out during a time devs just tried to throw everything at the wall to see if something sticks. A lot of games like that tried it and have had backlashes because of old promises that really don't nor should hold relevance in the present, and instead of acknowledging it devs just keep pushing for those promises and wasting time in the process. After all, for how long has Wild Life been in development at this point?

And look, let's say you do want to keep your promise of adding gay content. Why not just leave it until after the main development is done? I've been playing a lot of Bloodstained recently, a crowdfunded game, I'm obviously not comparing a game like that to a porn indie game, BUT, Bloodstained finished its main development years ago and they are finishing the kickstarter promises by now.

And well, I really don't plan on playing Wild Life any time soon, never was into it, and even less now that I know the game wasted a significant amount of time in that kind of content. I'm just saying, just because a loud minority can cancel you if you voice any complains, or because the devs are actually into that kind of content and do want to push it into the game, that's quite alright, but if you are a newcomer dev and tried to do something like this, you'd be far from taking off of 100$ of support.

It really is incredibly sad that your entire process of thought is just "Give me money. Which demographics can give me the most money? Only do things for those people. Anything else means I don't get as much money, which is a very bad thing"

Have you ever made anything just because you liked the idea of it? That you had something that you wanted to see exist? Or do you only do things to cater to whoever pays you the most cash?

Oh. Is he really that bad? I believe it lol

There's always people on this forum that can't come to terms with the fact that we're all degenerates here, and need to push the idea that some people here are more "degenerate" than others. Like anybody's going to care. We would all go up against the wall, the bullet doesn't care if you're "into less gross shit than those other freaks"
