I don't yearn for it but yeah that sounds good.
Personally I'd love to see a succubus mod. We already have womb tattoo and condom drinking from mods, if a mod combines them, adds succubus Karryn visuals and then implements a few new mechanics like Karryn slowly turning into a succubus, first she is weak but she gets stronger each time someone cums inside or something like that it could turn out amazing.
M-me too! I want to say what my idea of clothes mod would be! First, more durability and ways to restore uniform, but CC already does that. Sex acts could still be initiated while clothed, but they'd require much higher corresponding desired. Requirements can be lowered with some passives/edicts. Then, in the energy skill menu, you have an allow/disallow naked sex button. When activated, this would prevent player from accidentally using a skill that'd cause Karryn to get naked. In terms of mechanics, it'd allow you to avoid night mode despite getting fucked a lot, and as a downside, eventually, with passives accumulating, wearing clothes would do pretty much nothing to prevent sex. I don't know... I just really like clothed sex...
But back to what you said, it would work great for a potential spiritual sequel, where we have KP mechanics with magic and shit. Of course, it won't happen because Rem wants to make visual novels now....
So modders are our only hope, I'm afraid.
You sort of implying that he's the only one (among the only ones maybe) that do a decent job at both the "porn" and the "game".
Having both "porn" and "game" for a porn game is a requirement, not a bonus from the dev. You can glaze Rem for hitting the standard requirement, especially with that 40 buck price tag, which is a premium price.
As for RPG part of KP you are definitely glazing here, the game lacks what defines an RPG game, if not absent, thing is Rem had plans for them, which didnt make it. Like many other things that arent even in the cutting room floor, it become more and more apparent as you walkthrough the game and see the gaping hole (apart from Karryn's).
What we end up with isnt an complete supposed RPG game but a demo, a paid demo of battlefuck.
As for battlefuck, Well Karryn Prison coined the terms and until now while I definitely enjoy it, I cant say it's good for I dont have anything else to compare, there an absent of battlefuck games out there.
That should give you a hint of game development, and of what Rem promised and what he actually delivered, how and why he is "bitched about".
In terms of art, there isn't much to say. It's a matter of taste, but Sachi's drawings are definitely good. And I'd say that the way it's presented to us, as sort of a slide show/pseudo animations, is also the best we can hope for, unless one day porn games become mainstream and we have big studios working on them.
As a video game, it's hard to say for me personally, because it's hard to separate porn from gameplay, but what I can say for sure, is that its gameplay and porn definitely compliment each other by design. Sadly, it should be the bare minimum for porn games, but for most it isn't.
(Everything I say below applies to this genre - Rpg&battle fuck. I'm not comparing KP to some brothel managers or visual novels, it makes no sense. Also, I keep Rpg and battle fuck together intentionally. Combat in Kp affects other areas of its gameplay, and other areas of its gameplay affect the combat, so while you could make some comparisons, I'm not gonna go that way. It's not a pure RPG either. Dammit, we all know this genre, it's all those RPGmaker hentai games, unironically comparable to early alpha releases in their broken state, mass produced by underpaid japanese artists with minimal coding skills.)
As a porn game, either 15/10, or 10/10 but no other game gets more than 6.
For the first time playing this genre I was actually challenged, I could seriously role play as the protagonist, try my best to remain pure and still get corrupted despite my best efforts, for the first time I was making up strategies for a porn game when I was away from my computer. There are multiple builds and they actually work and matter, and you feel inclined to replay multiple times, not just to grab a couple additional pieces of CG art. Your decisions matter, multiple areas of the game influence each other, combat actually works, sex is an actual mechanic, some minigames are better than entire other games....
I could go on and on, and as trivial as some of those things are, KP is not only the game that does them the best, it's the only game that does them at all.
So to summarize, how is KP as a game? - at least decent. How is KP as porn? - at least decent. How is KP as a connection of porn and game - at least decent, which unfortunately puts it in the top 0.01% of similar products.
Yup, genre and objectivity aside, definitely favourite porn game, and a really good game in my books. And yes, there's a lot to complain about.
