Well, you heard it all wrong. Check your sources
He signed a partnership with Wizards of the Coast, and will release his combat cards in booster packs.
The fact is that Saria, being already a strong woman of color comfortable with her sexuality, WotC will improve their ESG score, and Velminth will swim in cash.
Oh god, he's pulling a Disney. The dude is building up his credentials so he can pitch this to Bob Iger. That's GENIUS actually, SOCIAL COMMENTARY, ETHNIC REPRESENTATION and DIVERSITY in a porn game like dude that's big brain thinking "Then the big reveal that SARIA is a trans". If he goes this route then i expect to see an AI GF Saria skin like dude then he probably already Trademarked Saria so dude is gonna enter Merchandising very soon. Dude is thinking 10 steps ahead, a man with a vision.

Yeah, tunnel vision in a thick fog without a flashlight or moonlight.

You laugh, but having porn mixed with FPS gameplay worked out once already and that is the story of overwatch
It's true, it also won the GOTY 2016, now I have a doubt, many subgenres receive their name based on their pioneers, such as metroidvania or soulslike, if an FPS porn appeared now, the genre of that game would be WachLike? :unsure:

P.S. Saria Reclaimed 0.28 will be a Soulslike and will win the POTY.

Good news guys!

Version 0.18 looks incredible, the rework that the patreons wanted has finally arrived.

What's this? Did the developer remake the game into a Counter-Strike game with sex scene if you get killed. Shit seriously tho, first thing i think of when seeing this is that map on Counter-Strike where u can plant the bomb. (Forgot the name of the map) Lol.

Dust 2 Saria :KEK:
Thank you for reminding me of the map's name. They should change the game's name into that and turn the game into a necrophilia fps porn game where bots fuck the player when they die. A good (By good i mean bad) way to end all the fucks the developer gives to everyone who's been playing this game.

Since I had a lot of fun with this game in earlier versions, here are the two older variances
First time uploading, let me know if it works

Vel I doubt you look at these since you constantly shit talk f95
Oh that almost surely means they do. Or we live rent free, which is nice, in modern economy.

Before I add to the list, just a quick heads up:
There are a ton of games, that are in the vicinity of all the mentioned games, that I like, but might feel too far removed from something like Karryn's Prison, ergo games like Caliross, Liz, Claire's Quest, The Agnietta, Naked Ambition, The Queendom of Lithzena etc., then there are the tons of pretty good games, that just get too samey too quickly for my taste - or that can only be found in the Translation part of F95 for a reason :p):
Hmmm, is Voidbound just that unpopular that it did not get a mention in the BF subgenre?

Yesterday I left some thoughts on Discord, and today I'm going to bring the suggestions to this forum

Taking into account the feedback from the entire community so far — in addition, of course, to my own — what the game NEEDS is to free itself from the constraints of linearity so that the player has the feeling that they really are playing something, and not just pressing the enter key and seeing images on the screen.

I'm not going to lie: this new format makes it very difficult, it's going to be a long and hard journey, but one of the alternatives I managed to find is the creation of an interactive map for the character, Saria, to move around the world. I'll send an image from a VN to illustrate a little of what I'm saying.
(Remembering that this is just an example, it doesn’t have to be 100% like this. I just want to inspire you).

Of course it would be on a much smaller scope, involving several map scenarios (unfortunately hand-drawn or something, because this is the path you chose yourself). This way, you would bring the exploration that the masses crave without having to get your hands dirty with pixel art.

Going deeper into this issue of interactive maps, try to imagine that first section of the old version, where there was an abandoned house, a cave with those insects and Oskar's tent you would draw a map representing this scenario, and in the image you would have the entrance to the cave, which could be accessed by clicking on the button that would take you inside and consequently to another map; there would be an abandoned house, which could also be accessed; and finally there would be the hut, which, when clicking on the button to interact with it, would activate the boss event.

Further on, after defeating Oskar, there would be a new map, representing that second part of the desert, which has the bonfire, the tied-up NPC, another caves (of the Troglodytes this time)...
Remembering that this is just an example. You might want to change the geographies too, it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing, the important thing is that the public has the feeling that they are exploring, that they are progressing.

We cannot forget the enemies. In this logic of interactive maps, you could insert them at fixed points in the scenario and through RNG when interacting with something on the map, such as entering an abandoned house or something similar.
This randomness, again, is important to put an end to the linear direction. It would be really cool if you thought of other random events that might surprise the player that weren't necessarily combat.

Finally, perhaps most important, the erotic part.
Removing the sexual combat was a big loss, because it made the sexual scenes dynamic, as they were actually within the game and, once again, were not linear. To compensate for this, the game will need to significantly alter all existing scenes, especially those of defeat, adding variations to them, whether by changing the text or Sariaa's face. Hell... If Saria loses multiple times to the same group of thugs, at some point more than masturbation should happen! (and come to think of it, that wouldn't be much work to do, since you already have a lot of drawings ready from the old version)
Yes, this is very related to Corruption. Corruption in the H-works is all about the world and the characters around it reacting to how the MC is losing himself to sex, and since the old numbers and statistics no longer exist, those reactions need to be in full force here, whether in the form of variations in scenes as I said before, or having unique ways of avoiding certain battles or going through certain events.
There's a lot of room to work here. In this new Arc 1, a lot is said about Saria having a group, so, well, you can actually create a group that accompanies Saria on many adventures, and of course, the characters in the group would react to the actions and events that surround Saria.
(You can even involve them in the card system if you want to go deeper into it! Think about the existence of special cards that sometimes appear in combat: these would be your companions helping you in the fight).
Imagine the possibilities... A malicious warrior who always hits on Saria and waits for the opportunity to take her to bed... A healer or something, shy and small, who secretly has feelings for Saria and watches and commenting on everything that happens to her... Seriously, a lot can be done here. I'm talking about recurring characters, reacting to Saria's corruption.


I know it's a lot, but that's it. There are other suggestions that came to mind, but I don't want to overwhelm anyone. Let's do it by steps.

I really want the game to return to its former glory and for players to get excited about it again.
This was the last Velminth reaction here if I'm not mistaken, which seems to mean he took the VN part the person mentioned in a literal sense (don't want to send hate to this person, or it was Vel on an alt account although I doubt that's something they would do)...

I'd actually thought about including Voidbound, but decided against it because all things considered it's just a tad too tedious (especially the first hub town) + bland (I cleared everything with the first hand gun except for that one guy where you were forced to use the sniper + light ammo) and the corruption build up is way too fast (of course it's just my opinion, but then again it's my list).

Same goes for Third Crisis, Defenestration, Tina Swordswoman of the Scarlet Prison, NightmareKnight, all the Clymenia (yes, even their Detective Girl game), Acerola, Hasoyua, TechnoBrake and OneOne1 games - and a whole other bunch of games, that lose their appeal way too quickly or are just too barebones in my eyes (but I understand it, if other people like those games way more than I do).

I could expand my initial list of similar good/great games with Pray Game, LQ2G, Lilitales, Princess Sacrifice, Ambrosia etc.
But those were not on my mind at the time (or already hinted at by mentioning the Translation thread) and I don't feel like spending too much time creating complete/definitive lists. :p
