Tbf callling it 'mass effect, but adult' is more from articles writing about it. You couldn't possibly expect a game like Mass Effect to be done by folks on their first attempt with such a small budget (yes that is a small budget in comparison to the games you'd like it to be). People also inflated the gameplay comparing it to XCOM, when its really more comparable to smaller Grid-based games like Final Fantasy Tactics (One of the dev diaries is even named Tactics Ass-vanced, to further prove that).No, I had enough information, I watched FOW from the beginning with their animated adult parodies. For example, the short film Lara in Trouble or Kunoichi Broken Princess. I was expecting an adventure that would, among other things, mix elements of asteroids and battle ground, not just these two mini-games for main gameplay. I expected choices in dialogues, interactivity in sex scenes as well. So I find Gons Raid Her a much more fun erotic game. The game picked up 2 million + on the kickstarter. Was it wrong to expect something more AAA than just such a mini-game? I think there were a lot of promises. Big game, a revolution in the genre. Mass Effect for adult. But this is miles away.
Subverse was designed to be a game with porn, not the other way around. So everyone that's been going in thinking the sex would be upfront, yeah are gonna be disappointed, but if you didn't read into the diaries and dev process, then that's kinda on you. You have to play the game and work for the smut.
And again calling the main gameplay minigames is kinda insulting when bullet hell shooters, and grid-based tactical RPG's are genres all on their own. If its easy sure, but then its only the beginning of the game, its not gonna be that difficult immediately, there are planned to be harder difficulty scenarios later in the game.
