Chinese review bombers. Apparently they didn't like the localisation made in traditional Chinese (Taiwan).

There is no Chinese localization at all yet. These bumfuckers got it in their head SFOW is pro Taiwan, and don't want any Taiwanese to do the translation and gone all political about it. It's a bunch of self entitled aholes. Anyone that read the news piece about the Chinese localization update see this is not the case. All these Chinese players hide behind vpn's, and go ballistic when SFOW say they see no traffic data from mainland China.

Checking the latest positive reviews it feels like a culture war with people hitting back at the Chinese mob. People giving positive reviews not necessary because they want to give one, but because they dislike what the Chinese doing atm.

So many 'but the budget' comments, and I wonder how many of those come from people that's have been an employer, let alone one that has had to hire high-skilled workers for substantial contracts.

You guys need to take a break.
I'm tired of reading your crazy comments, how much are you getting paid for them?

*adds another nickel to the jar of 'you must be getting paid for making sensible comments on the internet' *

I always though they are being paid, there is no way someone defends a game that much, not even a AAA game have that kind of defense, it is just a game FFS ._. (Not a porn game as promised )

Feel free to bring any recites to prove anything of what we said is wrong. Things you pick out of your noose, and/or pull out of your bumhole doesn't count. I'm more sick of people throwing opinions around as if it were facts...

I have a feeling most of them haven't moved out of their parents house, or even had their first proper paid job yet.

It's rather simple math. Look up the industry standards for wages when it come to coders, animators, game devs (whatever). Check the size of the dev team. Look at the "budget". Account for time spent since end of kickstarter.

Now they have Steam money though. They must have spent their Kickstarter money by now.

Most of the money they earned comes from Steam.

They roughly had 2 millions dollars from Kickstarter.

From Steam it must be something between 4 and 6 millions.

Steamdb only give a estimate based on Steam activity though. So how much they made on Steam sales not absolute. Valve take 30% of the sales though. Valve's cut on steam is a bit larger than what Patreon take. A game need to sell for over 10 mill USD on steam for Valve to drop their cut to 25%.

Seeing how Steam did hide, or remove all negative reviews Metro Exodus got due to the epic exclusivity deal. I guess its just a matter of time before the Chinese bomb get removed from Subverse as well.

The problem is not with GIF loops, but that they are not woven into the overall plot. They just exist and that's it: game separately, porn separately.

which we know has gone to hiring more people. We’ve already seen them respond to one of the common complaints about having sex in the story, it’s just a matter of time to address the others.

except playing the game is what earns you the porn, you can’t exactly call that separate. That’s like saying the victory party after a sports game takes place in a different dimension.

 

[Deleted member 324588]

I’m just gonna address the shitstorm once and move along.

some people enjoy Call of duty, some don’t

some people like the last of us, some don’t

many people like Fortnite, others see it being the reason why we’re never getting a new Unreal Tournament (GODDAMN IT).

we have opinions. We can debate, but we don’t need sling insults at each other to make a point.

If they just watch scenes by other means than play the game, or cheat to get the points to unlock scenes without actually have to play the game bypassing the "effort vs reward". The whole concept of it being a game is lost to them though.

This is not how it works. Do you know what a porn game is? This is when, after defeating the enemy, you get a bed scene as a reward; when during the trip you can attend erotic events; when you lose the battle and get the corresponding scene. This is what a porn game is, that is, a game built on the elements of porn. Personally, in Subverse, I see it as a full-fledged game (roughly speaking) and as porn in the form of ten-second videos. The only good example is recruiting missions. No, the quality of the project is very good (of course, that much money was received). Here's just the main problem, because of which it cannot be called a porn game - these are two elements that are very poorly and ineptly related to each other. This can be seen with the naked eye and only a stubborn person will not notice it.

 

[misterde]

damn this game is fucking solid, I love it.

I really love the mass effect references and the girls.

Just wish there was more anal heheh.

They are in complete denial.
The porn is absolutely locked away from the main story progression.
When have we ever seen a sex cutscene directly related to the story?

Basically, StudioFow failed to do what NLT did perfectly with ToN (sex scenes in the story and an extra collection of unlockable sex scenes)

You just proved you haven't played the game...

There is the first sex scene between MC and Elaisha
And I would also say that recruitment scenes are also part of the main story.

So 4 scenes.

as much as I enjoy NLT’s games, you’re aware those are basically the ‘5 second gifs’ people have complained about here?

Yes there are many of them, but given they lack voice acting aside from a few generic moans and single lines of dialogue amidst an entire conversation, I don’t really go back to them outside of Janet and Madalyn’s scenes. Yeah you got more angles, but very little else.
