I think that you are confusing porn with adult games. Adult games are games that, done properly, give the player interesting choices and rewards good decision-making with story progress. What makes adult games adult is that they include sexual situations or images. But, unlike the porn with decisions "games" you seem to prefer, they are games first and porn second, if they are done right.

This game is done right.
This is a porn game. Judging it as anything else is futile. It wouldn't have more than 100 sales on Steam without nudity and that's assuming that he doesn't get sued for using Lara Croft.

But you are assuming that all people are like you and just view these as masturbatory tools. I view them as entertainment, so for people like me your argument is utterly absurd and completely misses the point.
Most people are like me. You are the weird one that has a weird fascination with playing 2/10 indie games when you could be playing thousands of better games.

You've got over a thousand messages on a porn game forum and melt like a snowflake in august for like two pages now when people happen to like the game aspects of their porn games as if shrugging it off and going on with your day is just too difficult a task.
But please, by all means, keep telling yourself how normal you are. And off to the ignore list you go.

Melting like a snowflake? I am stating facts while you are so annoyed at the fact that I am right that you 1-decided to respond to me and 2-allegedly blocked me.

You can always tell a redditor. They stand out. Always wrong and always unashamed of it.

Nice ad hom "argument!" :ROFLMAO:

You have never once stated a "fact." Here's a fact for you: go to the forum's front page and sort games by popularity. The top ten are all games with gameplay plus some explicit scenes. None are the porn clickers you insist are the only successful games.

Sorry to barge in the middle of an already flaming discussion, but about the "suing part"... Highly improbable.

The authors of the (real/original, whatever word you want) themeselves admitted they took the Croft from from the phonebook, so they cannot sue anybody for that (is like Natasha Romanov, or Western-style Romanoff, cannot be trademarked/copyrighted) plus the game on purpose does not use the name Lara Croft.

Also the look (face) of the character is not really the one from the original games, but rather the one from Wildeer - which as I admit I myself discovered (not being a fan of Lara Croft) only not very far ago, is quite different from the ones in the original games that established the "Lara Croft" trademark.

I agree with you it is still recognisable the reference, but the reference being recognisable while being different, goes well under the "parody" label, which protects even under the USA law.

It is possible that Steam would have wanted to avoid the publicity of being the ones sued, but on directly suing the author, eventually only as scary technique, not because they would be sure to win - even because they would have needed to sue in his country, and as far as I remember, he is not American.

7/10 are renpy VNs. I like those odds.

It's impossible not to be a fan of Lara Croft once you become familiar with Wildeer's work.

I like Lara Croft in all adult content.

In reference to a previous comment on RenPy games in regards to having certain features like moving back and forth that could be programmed into any game engine or made from scratch in C++.

Well, the thing for me is that while being quite "endowed", maybe a bit too much for my taste (but not really, tiny, small, big, huge, I can like all sizes, depends on the rest), I think the fact is, he managed to get his Lara to have a face that is close enough to the "original" for the fans to recognise (along with other elements); being attractive enough if she was a real woman; not too "slutty", but also with somehow the face of someone I can see getting in "wild sex" stuff (and yes, in principle a face is no indication of behaviour, but I can see her with the mischievous expression that can prelude to doing something "wild" :)).

Though I admit I had given up on trying to port his character (he made it available, with a partial rigging) to Daz, and rather created one based on various existing Daz assets (if I ever get to make a game using it) - could go back to the porting now that I know better some tricks, but probably it would not make sense given the time I spent to create my own variant.

I think part of the allure of a character like Lara in a corruption style game is that she probably wouldn't do these things. She's portrayed as a strong woman that adventures and can take care of herself. It's sometimes fun for some to imagine such woman getting coerced into sex and not being quite as strong as they appear to be. I guess it's the whole aspect of being able to cause someone that's strong to be submissive. It's kind of a power game in sex sometimes. Lara is also as mentioned fairly attractive as portrayed in recent games. She's like a male version of Indiana Jones or Nathan Drake. Such female characters especially seem perfect for this type of power and control dynamic. There's a whole genre built around it like Akabur's Witch Trainer series, but there are many more.

i was talking about the linux version that was posted on mixdrop. I cannot download anything from mixdrop.
As a fellow linux user I feel your pain. I uploaded the linux version to my PixelDrain account. You are welcome to download it.

unfortunately, i cannot download it. any chance to put on gofile or something else?
Adblocker? Two (few) clicks in MixDrop download buttons starts downloads for uBO...

GoFile removes rarely downloaded (Linux versions) files, so...
Will Mediafire will be OK? Link added in my OP...

PIXELDRAIN
Thank you. May/should I link your upload in my OP post too?

We need "Goons Raid Her 2" im not really into the devs other projects even though he has tremendous talent
I mean I think everyone would like a 2 Goons 2 Raid but if the dev isn't feeling it then that's that unfortunately.

Goons Raid Her and HackNStalk are two of the best games, period. If The Architect really is re-developing HnS, that is amazing news.
