Daz has a store that a lot of devs buy models from. A lot of new devs barely make alterations to those models. Where as with HS and KK games, you have an extremely robust character creator. So unless you're playing parody games, you'd rarely come across models not made by the dev.
That is a bit odd...
The First one is pretty good, but does come off looking a bit Asian. What I loved about the second one is it's about as basic as you can get yet all the details you want are there, Especially the eyes and lips.
The bane of Honey Select. It's very difficult to make non-asian characters. Koikatsu has one too. Male characters in it are a pain to make... well, look like dudes.
lol The thing I hate most about Kiokatsu games is the male part always looks really off, it's too basic. It's a skin coloured stick with a pink tip most of the time. The dudes do come off looking a bit scrawny. The women are usually fine though. Honey Select, I don't mind the Asian look but I don't think I'd have mostly Asians in my game so fighting against that would he difficult.The bane of Honey Select.

I've seen ones with added detail, and I think they add too much. Makes it look like it's not even the same art style. I stick with the simpler ones because I think they match better. (Though I have to use pubes to hide the seam at the base)
Took me a long time just to get here. Not exactly a twink, but definitely no manly man.

No idea what Mist uses. Blender is my best guess, with the animation quality.
Thank you! I take a lot of pride in my character designs. (There's a lot of work behind them
)
Honestly wouldn't worry about any of these things, especially the selling part. Just try to learn the ropes without putting yourself in some position where you may need to compete with devs with years and more of experience and have captured an audience.
Thank you, for all your guys's help I'll probably check back in when I begin working on it.

I can confirm. There are not many gay focused games that show KK or HS characters. Most of time I see, 2D art, AI art, Daz, Sims 4 (My new project is based on this) and blender.
I'm spinning not sure what to do trying to figure it out myself...
https://f95zone.to/threads/honey-select-2-dx-r16-illusion.53457/ - Main thread, you can download it in part or go for the all in one 72GB repack which has pretty much most of the mods in already. You don't need the massive 273GB one.I'm spinning not sure what to do trying to figure it out myself...
Honey Select 2 seems great, it has tons of guides and everything but all together it's like 350GB, that's not in the budget...
Honey Select 1 is what I was originally going to use but there is almost no tutorials or support without deep diving.
Koikatsu I have no idea where to begin here... I'm guessing these are what people use?

I'm kind of at a loss but trying to push through
Koikatsu and Honey Select are similar enough that I can probably help on most things. Jinkies! feel free to @ me if you have questions, I'll try my best to answer!
Thank you both, I'll play around with the programs a bit and see what works for me. I wanted to kind of dive in a bit and see what I'd be working with so I started messing with Honey Select. I think I understand how it works a little, but it's a bit awkward to use. There's also a lot of clipping but that's understandable I just gotta work around it, maybe find a way to allow collision with skin. Just need to keep banging my head against the table until I get an idea haha.
I think HS2 already has a collision slider...could be wrong on that...
Clipping in what way? If it's hair, you're looking for something called "dynamic bones" (or a similar name). Probably found in the HSPE menu (Should be on the left side)
