My favorite genre of sex game is dating sim. Is that generally the most popular, or do most people have a different preference?

What type of sex games do you prefer?

I'm an aspiring dev, so I'm just kinda trying to get the pulse of what people's tastes are. I guess at the end of the day, it probably goes better if I just make sure it's something I enjoy, but I'd like to know if I'm gonna be appealing to a bigger or smaller market.

Good story, not too much grind and a little bit of sex and I'm happy. :)

I don't really see any point in bringing too much real life stuff (money, energy etc) or fighting into porn games. Not everyone agrees with me on this. :D

From my experience having a great story and dialogue is key. It brings the characters to life and makes sex scenes more powerful since you see the characters as actual people, not just renders. A visual novel is best suited to story telling like this which is what everyone is after: a good story. Id recommend you check out 'Where it all began' for a good example.

All the best.

A decent story and good renders are the most important factors for me. Scenes with decent animations (as in more than 2-4 frames) are rare in porn games, but if its done well, I really appreciate that too.

I don't mind "dating sims", unless the grind is too much. Games forcing me to do the same thing 10 times all the freaking time to progress the story is just annoying, and will make me either use cheats to progress the story, or make me delete the game if not possible.

i play every game contain

*good writing
when i play i want to feel that every character has his/her own personality then you can be more engaged in the story
not just every character using the same type of words
*believable story
EX:there is a game called (sister,sister,sister) i couldn't complete it because the story isn't convincing
the game contain relationships between every family member with each others
another thing you cannot just make everyone in the game want to fuck me you cannot just make everyone in the game
*the ability to skip or avoid what i don't want to see
people hate cuckold make it avoidable , people hate NTR make it avoidable
it won't bother you to just make it avoidable so all people can like it

When you say "avoidable," do you mean like if you make the right choices in the game those events won't come up, or do you mean like if the events do come up, you can press a button to skip to the end of the event?

i mean make the right choice to avoid it (and the choice should be visible not invisible)

for EX:
1- dreaming of desire
in this game you will go with your mother to buy clothes for her new job
if you choose the sexy clothes >>> she will fuck the boss later
if you choose conservative clothes >> she won't fuck him

2- incest story 2
your mother working in a coffee shop and she will get groped by a man (you have two choices)
just watch her >>> you will watch her being groped
defend her >>> you will protect her and no groping happen

in another scene
3 guys trying to rape your mother (you have a battle choices)
make the right decisions >>>> you will protect her and nothing happens to her
make the wrong decisions >>> she will be fucked by 3 men

3-my girlfriend amnesia
you will be asked in the middle of the game if you want to see NTR scene or not
if you chose yes .>>>you will see alot of NTR scenes
if you choose no >>> all the NTR scenes will be invisible like they aren't exist and even the story won't have any NTR

-the developer just coded the game to skip all the NTR scenes and he made some changes to the story

4-deprevated awakening
while playing the game in many scenes you are sneaking into a house where a man kidnapped your girl (two choices)
sneak in >>> you will protect her and she will not get raped
just wait >>>the more you wait the bad for you when you go in eventually you will see her being fucked (sad)

- in this game the decisions was invisible (me personally i though if i wait i will know if there is anyone else protecting the house
but no it was all for this scene

do you need more examples or this is enough ??

by making the right choices, because if you just make it so I can skip the scene, it still technically happened and that makes me feel nauseous because I still know it took place. It's not just about the visual aspect of it, it's about the act itself that people hate.

Oh, and to add to avoidable NTR, don't make it to where the person who the Protag is with and is going to NTR the Protag, actively wants to cuck the protag and the protag just so happens to stop it, because a person actively wanting to cuck/sleep with someone else is essentially the same as actually cucking him in my eyes and makes me drop the game. This is because the desire is there and at that point, the protag has already lost, the relationship is broken.

But if you avoid it by making the right choices, doesn't that mean there's also a possibility that you'll make the wrong choices, in which case you would still know the scene took place (because you caused the scene to happen with your wrong choice), but you have no way to skip it?

I think of it like two separate timelines, as long as like I said in my last post: " don't make it to where the person who the Protag is with and is going to NTR the Protag, actively wants to cuck the protag and the protag just so happens to stop it, because a person actively wanting to cuck/sleep with someone else is essentially the same as actually cucking him in my eyes and makes me drop the game. This is because the desire is there and at that point, the protag has already lost, the relationship is broken. "

basically I don't consider it cucking because it technically did not take place due to similar ideas to multiverse theory as long as the woman doesn't actively want to fuck another person despite the choices because at that point the MC has already lost her whether or not he prevented it this time.

hey, you don't know that! :p and rpg games are not just walking and getting to the scenes. people do enjoy them. it's just a matter of taste.

Having my personal kinks and fetishes is a requirement, otherwise I'm not that selective. Of course, if a game allows some degree of choice, it is more LIKELY to offer the content I want. E.g. Milf's Tale lets you chose whether the milf romances a man or a woman, appealing to a greater audience. For me personally however, it wouldn't make difference, if it had only the female love interest, while I wouldn't touch it at all, if it had only the male one.

even tho i have some perference about wich game to play and wich not because i not like the content.
i cant say what's the favorite genre. sometime i just want to play a game with nice story, sometime just some random stuff... sometime even some completly different game that i wouldnt play normally (like the game , i forget the name, with the whole black world thing and lots of crazy kinks who get banned for "infant").

honestly, it really depend of my mood. can play all kind of game.

dating sim isnt my fav to be honest, even if i like multiples games that actually are. i dont like the kind of grinding part of it.

I like a quest based game with good writing. And easy to follow, or to play. And by that I mean, if I need to go see Susie in the night club on Friday night, then tell me. Don't make me go look for Susie in 30 different places for 5 days.

Some grinding is ok, but it shouldn't be the focus of the game, if I wanted that i would play something from that winter storm game company.

Don't get carried away with internal monolog. I was playing a game a little while ago that had decent art and story, but the internal monolog would just keep going and going, like 15 to 20 lines, every time, and all the time.

As far as kinks and fetishes, mine change. I have searched for games with different tags like 6 times this month. By the way, love the new game update setup, so easy to search.

I agree with the different story lines to avoid certain content. I am very rarely wanting to see ntr, I am playing the game to f the ladies, not watch them f others.


Good luck with the game.

Okay, that upsetting I am woman, I chose Other: I dislike VN, they have on mobile and there no point waiting energy ticket to read but then get so mind bobbling why do I need to speed read, VN should interactive, RPG and then animation that something would bounce great deal for people. Some VN are someone's fantasy what could be or may have occurred we don't ask or pry.

Only thing bothers me: there no choose your gender games out there.
Choose gentilia, stats and pretty much build basic stats, traits and make the character unique. I haven't found one game like this.

ties: family or friends: story you live with your mom + dad, your mother died from illness, your brother left to join a faction.
friends are people in village you tried to grow ties with. (only few games I see with farmer dreams maybe)

Farm game that works, or bunker game that works and optional explore or upgrade.
Farm idea: it has animals that work depending on first location, helps your in long run, makes you depend on explore option. cows, horses, or sheep, goats, or just farming grow crops.
Bunker : you can expand it with pickax, or AI. other make underground farms, storage, (makes me think shelter doesn't have) upgrading bunker. Or utilization of making top house a nuclear safe place.
Explore/scout might make games that utilize farm or bunker or house in theory interesting gather materials normally wouldn't in old game.

HTML game I was thinking about that kind is similar that augment woman body, name, genetic stats I can't remember name because been long time. All I remember it either based in apple-tree, Russia, and I am not sure if was based on silicon valley but that game was really interesting. <- can't remember name don't get mad at me.


other themes:
time periods in middle ages, to modern era to other time periods are really cool to travel to experience stories. You have to have more content please add more content help get there visualize it.

I like games but I really stories and sometimes sex genre:
Natural cycle sex -> hit or miss fertility-> pregnancy -> miscarriage/try again or childbirth or abortion/break off ties -> baby raised -> child grows up -> (there no game like that)(drop factory that had it)
Magic pregnancy: 2 wks to 7 days miracles.
Breast play dry and wet(in shower & bath)
Childbirth and growth via crystal, is there way recharge it, or get new crystal? How he constantly getting new crystals to supply his family? I realize he was gifted a bag to carry around?
If anyone played any of adam & gaia? There another question do you get fuck goddess in end?
I played renapy + original one and left me wanting where goddess in story?

I hope to see more childbirth games and growth with new traits.
RPG games are okay just that I find they get little tedious like they are missing stuff. Some games missing inventory, or tools to have Person versus environment. Survival games are okay.
