I disagree. I do not think the whole point is to "insert" yourself into the story. I know people do that and good for them. Play how you want. Many, however, do not. They view these games more as a voyeur. They tend to be less vocal because they are not invested in the characters. These are adult VNs. To be crude, they are fap material. There are plenty of VNs that have romance and adult themes without graphic sex. Your argument would make more sense, to me, if you were referring to those type of VNs.
What do you consider the intent of the (personal) POV perspective if it isn't immersion?

A reader choosing not to immerse themselves in the perspective doesn't cancel the intent...

Storytelling is also meant to engage readers to connect with characters and experience the character's emotions...
The entire point of POV storytelling is so the reader inserts themselves into the story. Many stories, particularly these AVNs, offer paths, choices, so the reader crafts their own story experience.
Heaven forbid a reader do that then reject those emotions or refuse to accept the "story" as desirable...:ROFLMAO:

It's rather simple minded to think a creative work has such a singular objective as to "tell a story".
If the only point was to tell a story, there would be little purpose for fiction...
Thanks for proving my point on the average F95 user lol

Go outside and touch grass, bro.

Hey there!

A new month has begun, and I can't believe it's already been three weeks since the last update. Time flies! I've been hard at work, and I'm excited to share what I've been up to with you. Let's start with the usual progress chart below.

1725272892670.jpeg


As you can see, the script writing is fully complete. The graphics are also coming along nicely—we've already created half of the required scenes (and even one for the 4.0 update!). Thanks to the unpaid leave I mentioned before, things have been running more smoothly, and it's easier for me to keep an eye on everything. I expect we'll finish the remaining scenes in about three weeks. As for coding and testing, we're still in the early stages since my team handling that is currently on a well-deserved vacation. They’ll be back soon, hopefully recharged, because they’ll be diving straight into work!

Just a reminder about update 3.2—it's going to be a SMALL UPDATE, so if you're not into short content, you might want to wait for update 4.0. We plan to release episode 3.2 at the end of September, and if everything goes according to plan, episode 4.0 will be out before Christmas.

That’s all for now! Below, I’ve shared some graphics from the new update. Take care, everyone!

Oh no, a chad in the gym. :LOL: Dude looks like a dork.
Time for some gymnastics /s :HideThePain:

Also I wish SoD had a gym loser (like most real gyms and other games have) - some fat or skinny guy that gets bullied to oblivion only to get some help from you know who :sneaky:

Now that I think about it SoD doesn't have any loser characters - all of them are winners so far somehow.

I get your point. I am always flummoxed, however, when people dissect these porn VNs like they are classical literature. Guess it is a matter of expectations. I can weld to a story but not feel an association with the MC - if that makes any sense. Most porn VNs are simply set ups for the porn and story is an afterthought. If we were being honest, there simply is no immersion in any of these VNs because the premise and actions require a suspension of belief. Very few come close. I just chose not to chase windmills.

Yet, here you are...lol
You're flummoxed, I'm fascinated... :ROFLMAO:

Why do people even dissect "classic" art and literature the way they do?
Why do people read Harry Potter and want to go to Hogwarts?
Why do people dress up like fictional, fantasy characters and go to conventions?
Why do people look "down" on those that do any of the above?
Why should AVNs be different?

If people simply wanted graphic sex, they wouldn't waste their time clicking through a story or playing a game...:ROFLMAO:

Your perspective makes sense to me, has from the start of this discussion.
And the great thing is, all these different perspectives, all playing/reading the same AVNs, all having very different experiences and interpretations...
Truly, fascinating...:ROFLMAO:

Two questions for the fans.

1- Who will be the first to literally fuck Rylei?

2 - What do you think of the author introducing sexting between Rylei and her neighbor? Maybe she sends indecent photos at night while her husband sleeps next to her. This way she would receive more money.
well I'll take a guess since I have nothing to do:

1) I thinks it will be dean of the college since he is the one actually blackmailing her the most, but me personally hope for a first time with one of the buddies at the pub.

2) might be fun, maybe that could be a good idea for fooxied

1) Mike... Okay, all kidding aside, I'd like the first one to be Elijah. I liked that couple from the beginning (and the whole streaming subplot). But if I had to guess, I'd say the Dean.

2) Sounds good to me.
