I'm stunned by this. There is absolutely no audience for anything besides younger guys, and ugly old men. There's a tiny niche for lesbian content, but anything else has clearly been rejected. Not even threesomes could muster double digits. Instead the audience seems to overwhelmingly prefer ugly old men, and that raises some eyebrows.

Is this poll even surprising? What people want and like the most should be pretty established by now. Majority do not care about lesbian or connor content so there was no doubt no one will even bother voting for that. Watching Jessica get down and dirty for anyone other than connor is what matters most to everyone and right now she has only progressed with old men so ofcourse that category will have higher vote since Stoper himself has put alot of emphasis on just them, i dont think that would be the case had we had any proper progression with the other guys, there's like 1 or 2 young guys with some interactions while the rest of the men have no proper route with Jessica besides christian.

Yeah it's not surprising when you follow the AVN scene. I don't think it's related with the content already in game. It doesn't have the corruption tag, but it's a big fetish for female MC games to have the beautiful chick be debased by ugly old men

Exactly my thoughts. Polls of this kind show almost always the same results, indicating a trend towards very niche and extreme, well, let's call it "fetishes". I really don't think it has much to do with the already available content in the game, either. We can see similar results in other games where there's barely any of this implemented yet, and people are pretty much begging for "shota" and old farts content.

I was really hoping that JOHN wouldn't be a target for this kind of audience, but this poll really shows the mentality for the majority of Stoper's paying patreons. A big portion of the funding for these projects usually comes from middle-aged or older men with really questionable fetishes. Fetishes which would mostly be considered illegal if it was real-life and not a VN, if you know where I'm going with this. That obviously doesn't apply to everyone, but the numbers we can see here don't lie. This really is frustrating to watch, and one can just hope that Stoper won't be influenced too much by this poll. Would be a real shame if JOHN became another one of those games.

This is why it's dumb to do polls like this. Most people confuse it with quality, if a game just caters to their kinks. Many people also get really upset, when a game makes them feel anything but arousal and plot twists are like traumatic experiences for them.
If you have any vision for your game as a dev, you shouldn't ever ask what the players want, or we'll end up with every single game having the same story about an incestuous harem.

Wow - let me slow you down a bit there. Just because a fetish doesnt play into your own taste doesnt make it questionable. A fetish is just a concept, a shell for something. Many people have a fetish without ever giving life to any actionable events. That is one reason why the porn industry is as big and diverse as it is.

As for your argument about the age groups - let me give you a perfect real life example: K-Pop groups. Any given girl group is build around this basically. The age group that spends the big money in that market is not the youngsters but those that are established in their economy. That makes them an obvious target market. Same goes for the adult game market. The money is simply not in the age groups you imagine. This said doesnt make each and every middle aged man a perverted cradle robber as you imply. I can happily enjoy a game where i corrupt or charm characters far outside my own age group without trying to check under the skirts of real life people.

What you deal with is the classical result of poll driven development. If those who finance the game have a say then you simply have to deal with market forces - and those often are unbalanced. The money pyramide is usually upside down meaning the majority has far less than a small concentrated group.

I fully agree with your post, but it seems you misunderstood my points. I wasn't talking about any regular or legal fetish out there, and I'm not kink shaming anyone for their fetish either, aslong as it's within certain laws. I've also never mentioned with a single word that each and every middle aged man is a "perverted cradle robber".

My point was simply the fact that certain games attract certain people, and that is no secret. I'm talking about content involving obvious minors being presented as "shota", or content with characters who are supposedly 18+ but do look like elementary school kids, and the people it attracts to pay for this kind of stuff. Like I said, that doesn't mean everyone supporting a game like that is a pedophile(a word I tried to avoid on purpose, but oh well), but it certainly is an easy way for a bunch of people to act out their darkest and very questionable fantasies. These games get a large portion of their funding from the audience I find to be questionable, to say the least. And this part of the audience does in most cases consist of middle aged or older men who are willing to pay alot of money for this kind of content. If those people give life to their fetish or not doesn't really matter in this case. Obviously it's better for everyone if they don't, but that doesn't make the "fetish" any better. You are free to have a different opinion on that, but in my book that's not okay.

I'm kinda frustrated to see the poll on JOHN turn out the way it did, and part of that certainly is thanks to what I said above. So no, there's no need to slow me down. I'm not a toddler.

The rules for the content you refer to are very clear here on F95 and have been for a long time (see here) which is why i couldnt really relate in any other way than i did. It very much sounded like a general classification the way you worded it. This game doesnt touch that category by any means and follows the rules here accordingly.

Both young/old versions are equally popular tropes in porn too - be it the young guy with the MILF/Cougar or the young girl with the old fart which makes the poll result not a very surprising one given that. The audience is very much the same after all.

P.S. While you point fingers towards 'certain games' - maybe have a look at Black Desert Online. There is an entire class that fits your description and that is a multi-national online game having passed several Nation's agencies age-content mechanism.

Why not make everyone happy and have a 4some scene with Jessica, mr Parker (old guy quota)
Tommy (young guy quota) & either Blake (lesbian quota) or Rosa (hot milf quota). & after Mr Parker bangs the shit out of all of them, he has a heart attack and goes to the hospital for a bad ticker and high blood pressure.

I would not like it

I can smell philosophy in the comment section so I shall say this:
May the handkerchief be with you and may your aim stay precise even somebody comes knocking at your door in the "right" moment.
Man, I really like this site. It's so refreshing, reminds me of people arguing about the quality of Fifa titles, since the 90's.

I may have indeed worded it poorly. You are correct, JOHN does not currently have any of this content, but seeing the poll's result does make me a bit scared that it could possibly take the "wrong" turn at some point if Stoper starts catering to some of the voters.

I've heard of Black Desert Online before, but I can't say that I know anything about it. But even those agencies do make mistakes. Just take a look at some EA sports games. They are literal online casinos with gambling mechanisms left and right, but for some reason kids are allowed to play these games and make use of their features. There have been lawsuits already, but I guess putting enough money on the table will solve most issues.

Edit: Regarding the F95 rules, I'm still quite new around here, so I do appreciate the link you provided!

I think stoper has his own ideas and does not change them according to the wishes of the supporters. if one day he wanted, could he insert DLCs based on the choices of supporters?

Hopefully, there's a route ending where Jess and Blake marry.
