Because I have WAY hotter girls in my main game, Harvesting Corruption. And, she has a small part in that game too.

I think a lot of other dev's use what you would call "ugly models" because a lot of them are using cheap or free models for their content.
I've put around 15 thousand dollars or more into all the assets I own. So I have a very large pool to choose from. There are things I could do to make things even better looking, but I'm still pretty new to Daz studio, only using it less than a year, so over time, my models will get even better looking... I try to make them look as unique and as good as I can for now.

That's just the story bruv.
If you like the writing, the image quality, etc... You'll be better off playing my other game "Harvesting Corruption"... Just understand it's going through a makeover right now to make it look even better. All the image work is done I'm just rewriting the base code, so it'll be updated in a few weeks...
Animations are better too. I made the Christmas Special in two weeks, I didn't have time for animation work.

I responded to your comment but I think it got removed for some reason...
This game was short because it was just a Holiday Special, mostly for my Patrons. I made it from conception to release, in 2 weeks. This is why the animations are cheap and fast. And this is why the game is short.
Why do 97% of dev's use shitty models? I'm going to assume it's because for 97% of dev's, this is a hobby. These assets are fucking expensive. If you don't already have a huge cash pool, you're not going to have a lot of options with models and environments. Also, a lot of these dev's started making their games 8 years ago, and that was back when Gen 3 models were the latest. And those just plainly suck, to be honest. I'm not even using the latest gen models. But more than anything, it's REALLY hard to make money doing this. I don't even make enough to buy one drink every day of the month. And I work on my games 18 hours a day, 7 days a week. If I didn't have money to finance myself, this wouldn't even be possible. Also, I think you probably see a lot of the same models in games because they were probably free at one point, and everyone grabbed them. I personally, stay far away from models I've seen in other games, on purpose.
The guys you see using good models, with good environments, are pouring a LOT of their own cash into making their game. Some of them make enough on Patreon/Subscribestar to help with that, but 97% of them don't.
In a nutshell, it's not the devs fault... Well, mostly. Some dev's just have shitty taste. the other side of the story is, I spend a LOT of time creating my characters. I find the right model to fit the characters personality. Then I shape them. then I find clothes that are realistic to the situation and the character... I put a lot of thought into their backstories and the things they would wear and have around their house. How they would talk, walk, and act. This lends to characters that feel more believable. And of course on top of that, I have good taste in women because I'm a player, son. lol.
