I have absolutely no problem with no sexual content. I have absolutely no problem with a censored version for the freeloaders and an uncensored version for subscribing patrons.
However, I do have an extreme problem with a VN that is emasculated by leaving everything in the censored version bar the "juicy bits". I get the homage to earlier times and all that, but these pouting, under brow looks, lascivious sidelong glances, breast-thrusting stretches, the "come and get it" ass-wiggling and the smoldering sashaying posturing on the spot that make up 99% of Claudia's visuals is a total load of rubbish. This is just taking the p**s. Either give it all to your audience or just leave in the eye-candy and take out all of the mock-provocativeness completely.
There was very little of this ridiculous teasing c**p in the old movies. Yes, the girl maybe had big boobs, tight clothes and a pouty mouth, but she didn't pout it and flout it. It was just a spicy part of the visual scenery and, coupled with the vulnerability of the traditional boop-oop-a-doop female role, used to accentuate the "gorgeous damsel in mortal danger" element of the movie and the "suspense" induced by the abject horror of the impending doom awaiting her.
Same with the juvenile mc. He increasingly exhibits all of the obsessive thoughts, desires and fantasies of the regular porn feature yet without as you would get under "normal" AVN circumstances in this type of scenario the slightest meaningful closure.
It's like doing a documentary following behind someone going into a meeting about the subject of the documentary, then getting right up to the conference room door and having it shut in your face.
It's a great shame, because in itself this is a great story with, as has been said, exquisite and immaculate visuals, but for me at least, it is totally diminished in value by this "might let you, nah won't" vein which not only runs through it, but seems to me to deliberately dominate almost every scene.
Either go all the way, or keep the teasing and tantalizing carrot right out of it. Otherwise it will be obvious that this is nothing like what it appears to promise to be and thereby push a large proportion of, what I would not be surprised to find, a potentially sizeable audience for this title away.

PS/ I'm sorry. I feel I need to add that the above comments are based on my impression that there is to be no uncensored (porn) version to be made available at all, either to freeloaders or patrons.
