POV/3rd Person or Voyeur

[BlenderGuy]

I was wondering how you lot feel about the way sex scenes in games/VN's are presented.

Especially when you assume the identity of the MC.

POV is the worst option for me.

In games there is no way to feel something, so they have to show it to you:
- the way girl places her hands on MCs back, when hugging him,
- the moment of penetration,
- the emotions on girls face, when she's not facing MC

Its easier to show the most informative view with with free camera.

Thanks for that. Yea I have to admit it's pretty much the same for me. I just like to hear other people's takes on the subject.
For when I start trying to make my own game.

Close to POV and third person. Reflective surfaces "go a long way" with POV as they can show you alternative angles, i.e. the love interests face when she's facing away from the player character. I'm not a big fan of seeing the male player character's face, especially when it's a bad design, which is most of the time.
