I think you are forgetting one important thing here. These porn games don't have the level of writing, where I am supposed to self-insert as the male protagonist, they all feel the same in general. If I am having a rough time and feel down, maybe I will watch a movie that relates to my situation to feel better or just watch something that gets me motivated in general but definitely not porn games.I see this a lot and either they don't understand what empathy is, have fallen for the "self insertion bad" meme or are genuine sociopaths. Media with characters is made almost entirely around the idea that the watcher can relate to other humans
I play the porn games to have a change from the vanilla porn. Reason why I don't play or understand why people play vanilla games is because you can either get that from real life or watch the usual porn. While porn games are a good medium for the kinkier stuff. I mean... when you watch real porn, where women are with more disgusting guys, it is not really enjoyable is it? The guy is basically a corpse and girl is obviously disgusted, so it is an automatic turn-off. Or cheating porn, not really enjoyable either because I could see her in dozens of other videos and know that it is a fake story, which might not seem logical if I try to imply these games are "real stories" but it feels different and works different.
