Hello everyone, I'm new to the world of developing NSFW games, but I've been playing them for quite some time. I would like to know opinions, ideas, whatever you want to share with me, about how I could carry out the topic of art. I was thinking about developing a system, where the game is more text-based, rather than completely image-based. I am not an illustrator or drawing artist, so I am trying to rely on AI to be able to generate at least a picure of the characters. I would like to ask for feedback on what you think... Is this okay? That's wrong? Does anyone have a tool that makes these things easier? Do you think that art is very important in a game with the characteristics I'm aiming for?

This is just one of prototypes of characters that I have in mind for my game, Doing it with AI, it is very difficult for me to maintain a perfect correlation between the photos... That is why I wanted to know opinions and also ideas to solve this problem or if I simply should not give it so much relevance. I have in mind several prototypes of characters, some closer to femininity and others more towards the tomboy side. My idea is not to make a game where it is simply for people to get rid of their stress by fapping... I am a lover of literature and I would like to develop an interesting, entertaining story with a lot of diversity. For that reason, I'm not someone who focuses so much on art, but I am broken my head to design a good RPG system that fits the story.

So you want make a text rich game. With RPG system. I suggest to get yourself a copy of something like Vampire: The Masquerade — Night Road. Not only to look how implement a good story, buy also to look how implement one of good narrative TTRPG system into VN and stop break your head for nothing.

I think it is very important to have some decent art. Be aware there will be some people who will hate the art just because it is AI generated and they will be very vocal. I have seen some AI that is... not so good. I have also seen some I like very much. Like writing it is an art form that needs some skill and attention when crafting. (I don't think perfect continuity between images is necessary, although more is better.) (Whatever you do don't post an image with six fingers, the AI haters will be all over you!)

In terms of tools try talking to other developers using AI art. One that springs to mind who has posted some stuff about what they use is aDDont:
https://f95zone.to/threads/mila-ai-v1-2-11b-addont.188775/. They would probably be helpful and share some links and thoughts.

Another option would be to find someone you can work with who is already skilled in generating AI images. Your situations would need to be compatible! Posting, or looking here: https://f95zone.to/forums/recruitment-services.117/ might work out.

In the end doing what you yourself enjoy and are most comfortable with is the best approach. :)

Yeah, I completely agree with that statement - if you use AI a huge amount of hate towards you will be just because of that. Especialy if you are just starting and don't have all the tools in your hands. So be ready to ignore 1 star ratings with words like "unispired shit, AI is bad, I better play something else" that will keep coming to you every now and then. But there will be more games made with the help of AI in the future anyway. So the hate may go down with time.

About the topic - if you want to make deep story, in my opinion, you should strife more to the erotic side (I mean closer to erotic further from porn). Because if you are reading a good story you probably don't want to wank in that moment. Good example is the Witcher. There are erotic scenes there, porn won't really fit the story. There are tons of awesome porn with characters from the game, and nsfw cosplay, but not in the game. Baldur's gate 3 another good example. Porn scenes will be cringey in the games. But we like the characters and that's why there are lot's of porn with them. When we are feeling like it we'd love to see it.

My point is - choose carefully the balance between porn and story. You obviously can write a good porn story too, but in that case it should be more related to the feelings of charaters and less on the story and setting side. For example in one of my favorite games Dilmur I have no idea why it has so many plot related filler scenes. I am more interested in Noemi corruption, and don't want to spend much time on learning what's happening. And it's even more frustrating that the story is kinda good. It's just - if you wanna play a porn game your mind is in that kinda "lewd" state. And in that state you don't wanna read a literature, even if it's good. Maybe it's just me so, again - it's my opinion.
