Because rarely is something on DLsite truly less than a three. I’ve played many NTR there and haven’t met one that was a complete waste of time.DLSite is the same if not worse. Just on the opposite side. If F95 is too picky, DLsite users are far too lenient. I am not sure if it’s because of how Japan’s culture never really adopted the “customer is always right” mindset like the west did, but they refuse to give anything below a 3, even the most absolute of garbage.
In F95zone, you occasionally will find a hidden gem among the trash that was obscured due to reviews sure, but in DLsite the review/rating system is completely inflated and can’t even be used anymore.
Like for some context: on the latest release page for games with the NTR tag, of the 30 on the first page, 20 are 4.5 or higher. With most of the remaining ten being 4 stars. Like what’s the point anymore if Scars of Summer, Leanne 2, and other acclaimed games have to share the same rating as typical RPGM slop, some of which are even AI!
And DLsite DOES have some rules against AI slop, whereas F95 is completely overrun when it comes to AI. Just look at the latest NTR releases on F95. Virtually all AI/3D slop because no one is curating worth a damn.
But you don't need to take my word for it. Just have a look yourself at the latest releases for each site. IDK about others, but I’m taking DLsite everyday. Sure, it's a bit amateurish, but shit’s got soul and actual work put into it.
DLsite (virtually all hand-drawn):
F95:
Only one hand-drawn game, yikes. Simply put, if the developer isn’t putting effort in their games, I’m not spending time playing their game either. (For the record, the "story" in many AI games is even worse than the art.)
