On paper, this game was everything I ever wanted in an H-game. But in execution, it missed the mark so hard lmao. Still a good overall experience, even if the game feel is a little off.
I'm a little confused, is SoD:ID going to be a sequel? DLC? Will it even have the same gameplay? I saw some things about idol stuff but I can't make heads or tails.

It's not a sequel, it's sort of an expansion DLC with new stages, a new character, new enemy types and new game mechanics (i.e the idol stuff).

Totally agree. Game have a good core but needs A LOT of polishing:
1. guns needs rework so all of them would be useful, for now most of it is clearly inferiour to 3 or 4 best ones. And because of that most hard encounters are hard just because you have shit weapons. My biggest disappointment was a machine gun - it's a weapon supposed to take down hordes or fat enemies like tintan or butcher but it have absoulete shit damage - you need 3 headshots or 8 shots to kill single z, or more than 1 cartridge box to kill fat enemy. And placeholder reloading animation is the cherry on the top. Another disappointment is p90 - it the same problem with overrun of bullets for single enemy but now because of shitty spread - you can shoot 10 bullets and only 1 or 2 would hit the enemy. Overall it makes their big magazines useless. Impulse pistol is another shit decision - it's no different from started glock (only 5 bullets more in magazine) but needs a skill slot for it. Just why? They could make automatic fire or no reloading at least and it would be understandable why I should choose it instead of (superior in damage and accuracy) revolver. Also they could give an opportunity for you to choose main weapons to for revisiting cleared stages or make high level skill that allows you to choose one or both main weapons before starting a stage.
2. Defeat scenes - same animations for all girls is disappointing (in first game girls had different animations) and lack of details makes unsatisfying expression. You should feel bad because of gruesome death of girl is your fault cause you didn't save her, not because it looks like shit.
3. Sex scenes - I understand that they hoped for censorship but still, penetrating animation worse than early SFM works - dick just go through the texture and that's all. And dick is clipping through the back of the girl of course. Seriously, damn, what the fuck is this shit quality? It's not impossible to make, I think, developers are just lazy - censorship means saved budget you baka gaijin.
Another thing about it is this "ludo-narrative dissonance" meme in sex scenes. You can heal-fuck girls in the first stage (and you just meet them in story) but they are still acts like nothing happened in initimacy events. Harem room also could be added to this - I think it should be allowed to use only after you maxxed all girls, not before it. But seems like developers don't give a fuck. Thanks that PoV camera surprisingly not shit most of the times.
And NTR events - a lot of missed opportunities here with interacrion with MC. For example, there could be "free roam" events where girls closed in her room and you can here her moaning when come close to door. Shower room have big setup but it didn't used at all - I have already two ideas just poped in mind - scene where MC have shower while girl being fucked behind mirror and second where MC finally can went inside of this room and there he sees that girl being banged in shower. But game doesn't have anything of it. Also, again with "ludo-narrative dissonance" meme - to be fair, NTR is written paralled with initimacy events so you can feel a progression, but there aren't any hints or connections in initimacy events to NTR events. Also it could be good if NTR events also gives girls power-ups or blocked sex scenes with MC after you finished all NTR events - first and foremost NTR is narrative thing and developers does nothing with it, despite having many opportunities, it just feels as extra scenes in game and that's all.
Overall I think that game already have many things to improve. But they are decided to went quantity, not quality - new girl (with the same "ludo-narrative" problems), new monsters (with the same quality of death scenes problems) and wtf even this idol stuff and all?
Based. Strong and confident mature woman (with big tits) who is actually pushover and closed pervert - best hentai type of woman. Also her NTR plot have the most sense of all because of her personality

My exact same feeling, and I would bet this resonates with most of the fan-base as well. I wish some other devs would copy this same formula, but execute it better with more polish and stuff.
But a big hurdle is that not many developers (western at least) are willing to touch the core subject matter of zombie/monster rape and other hardcore shit that SotD has, so the chances of clones appearing are reduced.
I did see one or two "clones" of SotD being shared around f95, but as expected they were even worse in terms of polish.

Would definitely like more hentai games in the FPS genre. Or any other video game genre that's braindead easy enough for me to play with relative competence as a sort of video game newb of sorts. So far my two go to video game genres for that are RPGs and FPSs. Though I hope to one day find a third one that's just as distinct from RPGs and FPSs gameplay wise yet still simple enough for my level of skill.

It would be cool to see, rather than summertime saga clones or whatever Renpy shovelware gets released and abandoned every month. I guess Japan devs don't really like the fps genre that much.
I really think that if they polished the game a bit it would be much more popular. I know it's probably a small dev team, but come on. There are free unity templates that have better feeling guns and movement.
You think that's rare while counting games with a female protag. Now consider how I feel when the thing that truly sells SoD to me is the male protag that actually interacts with the girls in a meaningful way. Compared to that, games that feature a girl walking around and getting raped by everything that moves (and even some stuff that doesn't move) are positively abundant.
Unpolished as it is, SoD is truly unique as far as porn games are concerned.

Give Captivity a try if you haven't already. It is 2D tough, with very simplistic graphics and animations, so if that is a deal-breaker then maybe skip it. But it's more or less in the same vein as SotD in the sense of being a shooter with monsters and zombies. It is very basic and to the point, but I enjoyed the simple premise and gameplay more than I expected to. Definitely one of those "easy to learn, hard to master" tough, because the difficult stages can be a pain in the ass.

Will the DLC offer alternative methods for getting the outfits that require parkour? Or more new content in general in the form of new weapons, new sex scenes and the new waifu models foe Einomaru?
The DLC is coming out in July?
I can definitely agree to that.
Thanks for the recommendation. Though I do gotta say, out of all the ViruZ waifus, I like the big titted glasses girl with the cross necklace. It goes well with her cleavage.
He probably referred to what Inept Monkey said.
I tried both ViruZ and Captivity (twice even) they weren't my thing tho.

tl;dr:
It's just that, to make this game be more polished would be a ton of work and require even more of ideas to make it work and fun.
But if you wanted to make a game like this, you'd need a quite big initial budget and if you don't, then it'll turn out like this game where you have to release even with bugs, as long as it doesn't crash down.

When you stop to think logically about it, just the fact that these games exist in the first place is surprising (despite the jankyness), when you break it down like this:
1) FPS. You can count on one hand how many adult games exists that can be described as first person shooters. I've seen some 3rd person shooters, and first person dungeon crawlers, but rarely proper FPS.
2) Real time 3D. With decent(ish) graphics and animations to boot, it is a nice change from the quadrillion western visual novels that have pre-rendered DAZ models.
3) Zombie/Monster/Gore: Speaks for itself, really. Not many game makers would even consider touching a game like this.
4) Misc: gameplay loop that is simple but decent and easy to get going, fully voice acted, easy gallery access, side content to please other audiences (vanilla, ntr), etc.
I'll always talk shit about the game's many failings with good reason, but I have to recognize that it is a unique rough gem in a sea of souless v.01 visual novel slop.

Did anyone in this thread buy the GOG version? Is it any different from the Steam version? There's a sale going on that's only a couple of bucks, so I might as well get it.

The GOG version is the exact same one as the Steam version. The only difference is DRM free on GOG.
