Unreal Engine Subverse [v0.9] [Studio Fow]

[kail155]

Yeah! more mediocre quality animated gifs inside something that pretends to be a game.

 

[joryh]

I actually have the game on Steam and I voiced my opinion on the mantic scenes. It does feel like the captain is not really the star of the game. Even though they advertised it to be that way to attract a larger audience. Yet the whole Pandora system is just filled with mantic sex or toys or lesbian stuff. Which is fine but let's be real here. The majority of people who would play this game are going to be guys. Most guys are not into mantic sex. So, it's really sad that they are only catering to a small demographic for majority of their scenes.

I get that StudioFlow was a studio that was known for its bestiality videos or gifs. Now they are making a game for a wider audience and to be blunt. I don't care for all the mantic sex scenes. It's fine that it has some but like you said if you filter out just the captain only scenes with the girls. It's like a small fraction of the videos you can unlock.

Like I think Lily has about 30 scenes and about 8 or those scenes are with the captain. So, talk about getting cucked on your own ship.

Another thing that annoyed me about the update was their lightning or bloom effects. You can tell someone who is super unexperienced with lighting just turn on the switch on some of the scenes making it washed out.

The combat is meh. It's boring. I mean outside from the story mission stuff. The space and ground combat is an boring mess.

Yup. I have exactly ZERO use for the Pandora system. Can't even remember the last time I really bothered to look at it. I started playing this game for the porn, ended up playing it for the game cause the porn does sweet fuck all for me. Not here to watch mantics and the other crew fuck each other. I don't care it the crew fuck each other, I have fuckall interest in watching it.

Got it on steam too. A friend saw it on my wishlist who does reviews and game testing, so he gets a shitload of keys and passes them out amongst our discord channel. "Our" being a group of gamer friends playing various games together for 15ish years. It's sometimes handy not hiding the fact you're a perv who plays lewd games from your friends :}

 

[UnoriginalUserName]

is the game still 99% grinding with little payoff?

Yeah, pretty much. Although I guess it depends on how you feel about tentacles and alien mutant things fucking the girls instead of "The Captain". If that's your jam you'll be happy and cumming buckets since that's basically 95% of the H-scenes.
Annoying since the renders are actually quite good. Big fan of Elara's, because, you know, elf.

 

[SpicyHotBeef]

There's a tool called

You must be registered to see the links

that will let you move the camera freely in UE4 games amongst other things. I've used it on this game for that purpose and it works fine. You inject it into the game similarly to how Special K works if you've ever used that. The page I linked has the download and also has all the info/guides about how to use it and what it does.

Yeah that's how I saw the dick passing through Fortune. I've come to accept that sex scenes in this game are just loops and gifs and the core is the space shooter thing (honestly thought it's the other way around when I gladly paid for it).
Unlocked all of Fortune's scenes now and I just hope we get more animations with speed sliders in the future (go fast, slow, etc).

 

[Chris Nichols 2315]

The combat is actually pretty challenging in this game...I like a good challenge every now and then in a game.

I am too old to care what people think about what I play. I play a variety of games. Some of them are adult games

I think the only thing that keeps me interested in this game is the story. Now grant it, it's not like God of War story telling but it does a good job of keeping me interested. The voice acting is good.

Now like you mentioned about the pandora system. They have all these scenes which most of them you have no control of. You are basically just watching a gif play out. Some of them offer a way to increase the speed and a cum button. But other than that, there is no option to view the scenes from different angles or nothing. The number of mantic scenes is pathetically high. That there is no point in doing the space or ground combat mission that you can do by scanning different planets. I don't care about tentacles or machine gun vibrators. It just doesn't interest me. So yeah, on that front it's disappointing.

Now the combat is okay, but I found only in short bursts. Only doing a few of them at a time and stopping. Or else you are going to be bored to tears.

The game is okay. But if I am being honest. I enjoyed the Being Adik chapter 9 update more than I did this update.

Ouch.

 

[Jjlxtreme]

Does anyone have a full save file? <3

 

[Pedro121]

Am I the only one who never actually played the core game mechanic? What I've did since I found this game was just to request/find a save in this thread, load it up, and go to the Pandora and find the new scenes.

I still don't know what the story is or who the characters are besides their names. It's like Overwatch porn, never played it but still know who the characters are.

 

[TheOneWho Watch]

does the scene where girls fuck with mutant count as ntr?

 

[KingFuzzy]

does the scene where girls fuck with mutant count as ntr?

the game pretty much is just ntr wrapped in a sweet lie. iirc someone said before the pandora rework, ALL the girls would fuck anything and anyone else more and sooner than the mc, even though the game was advertised as building up a harem of girls for yourself on a grand space adventure.

the dev is a cuck. tbh "The dev is a cuck fetishist" should just be put into the OP so no one needs to ask about ntr ever again about this game.

Sad that you dont have control over the camera in Pandora scenes. Not even the speed of the animations. (and it looks like they dont have plans on implementing, seeing the unlocked scenes where Fortune's model get squished and the dude's dick just passed through her stomach)

The scenes aren't animated for 360 view. Thats why they don't let you do it natively. Many animators do this trick in many games and it works because the engine they pick usually doesn't render 3D models. Like in renpy games, the animated scenes and scenes in general will just be a video of a pre-rendered scene they made in some other program and imported it. In Unreal, they're actually rendering the scene in engine. Some animators in some games do take care when they do use engines like Unreal or Unity and do make their animations look good in a full 360 view. But I think Studio Fow is just using the same style of animation they are used to when they just did porn videos, and applying it to this game. Its a shame, but it is what it is. So they make the animation look great from the angle they want, but then yeah you see penises pass through things, body parts missing, weird textures, etc when you move the camera outside of that preferred angle.

 

[Magister Masquerade]

The story here is god aweful and doesn't take itself seriously at all and is full of tons and tons of cheese, poorly executed dirty humor/innuendos, and mostly shallow characters that play their archetypes/tropes almost completely straight on. I do agree the voice acting is good but Studio FOW has always had great voice actors.

As far as the porn goes, I agree it's pretty dissapointing compared to their old stuff and imo wasn't worth them giving up their videos at all, but in the realm of similar games (with a hundredth of their funding lmao), it's a pretty standard nearly static (or might as well be static) loop without much build up or play through, and the way you get them seperates them pretty strongly from the core game.

The gameplay itself is just bleh. I'm not one to judge peoples' tastes, but I'm shocked anyone could consider the gameplay even remotely good. It's repetitive, poorly balanced (usually leaning on boringly easy then throws out awkward and sudden difficulty spikes), and shallow. I was an original supporter of the game having been a really big fan of them for a while, but man, I couldn't have predicted such a collassal failure of a game. They couldn't even get the one thing they've been doing forever and are known for right, but hey, a lesson learned I guss. I usually don't support games pre-release and this is why, lol. They're also waaaaaaaaaaaay off development schedule now too and pretty much slit any momentum and hype they had as a potential high-quality adult game across the throat.

I'm not alone in these opinions as the Steam reviews echo them more or less. It's not the worst pron game I've ever played, but it'll never be the best and probably not even a good one. If they ever actually finish, it'll probably be something worth ripping scenes from and that's about it.

I really hope Studio Fow gives up games after this and goes back to making videos, lmao.

What are your "best" porn games you played?

edit
Steam fans voted for genshin impact as game of the year - so I have very low respect for people on steam after that.

NEW ONBOARD DIALOGUES

All your crewmates have new dialogue onboard the ship to reflect the major happenings in this chapter’s story.

Tweaks and Improvements

• Optimizations to PANDORA scenes.
• The PANDORA cards scroll-box now resets to the top when switching between characters.
• Reduced emissive brightness on Scoundrel faction ships in Space Combat.
• Improvements to DEVA mode logic and balance.
• Grid combat balancing changes.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed issue where pausing the game and resuming during Sova's drinking minigame would make the mouse cursor disappear.
• Fixed issue when waifu’s were in DEVA mode, they could not interact with health pickups.
• Fixed issue where characters in the DEVA cocoon were vulnerable to knockback when they shouldn't, causing them to be placed on the next tile invisible in Grid Combat.
• Reduced or eliminated fatal crashes when skipping or fast-forwarding during dialogue sequences.
• Fixed issue where the Anti-Stun passive did not display on the character info panel in Grid Combat.
• Fixed visual bug where Lamarse’s drool was rendered during the character placement phase in Grid Combat.
• Fixed issue where the attack strength icon was not updated based on damage type when viewing the Laboratory or Locker room UI. Now shows the lightning bolt icon for characters who deal energy damage.

• Fixed issue where Lily’s mouth was moving when Captain was speaking during the “Current Status” dialogue option once Sova is recruited.
• Updated particle timing on Pervedilo’s primary attack so it doesn’t look like two separate attacks in Grid Combat.
  

Known Issues (Does not include all issues)

• Clipping issues during dialogue sections for some newly introduced characters in Fortune’s release.
• Some characters' animation pose transitions are not in place yet during dialogue sections for Fortune’s release.
• If multiple enemies are stunned, when it is their turn, the arrow above their head still renders even after their turn has passed in Grid Combat.
• Visual bug, when a mantic reaches max level of 40 a white icon will appear the first time you enter the lab, as if there were more levels but goes away after selecting another mantic.
• Mission log filter inconsistency if you filter out finished missions, then filter out on Nebula’s, the filtered Finished missions will be in the list again.
• Waifus active, passive and ultimate icons do not always render in the same order from Locker room to selection screen.
• Visual bug, unlockable abilities/passives not showing up or showing as locked in the Laboratory or Selection screen after the character has reached required level (some known characters Napholeon & Chodestool passed level 30).
• Character upgrades based on level are not fully implemented for all characters.
• While Fortune is in DEVA mode, the icons clip into the border.
• Imperium’s Shocktrooper Purify status remains on character after Shocktrooper is killed.
• Visual bug, if a unit has shield and armor and receives damage while the preview damage animation is happening on the health bars, there’s a chance it will show shield or armor remaining on the bar when there is not after the attack (In most cases remaining shield but in the character info it will show zero shield as intended).
• Alt-Tabbing potentially can cause the game to crash, especially during areas of the game where high loads take place.
• Report stating Rekall's passive can cause a softlock if an enemy counters with low health and dies from Rekall’s passive.
• Low texture resolution rendering for some users during dialogue sequences throughout the game.
• Some users reported odd textures when loading Ela and Taron in PANDORA and Gallery.
• Framerate drop can cause Mary Celeste to shoot out of the jump-gate in Navigation.
• Bridge projector fails to update the color scheme throughout Mary Celeste consistently. This will be fixed in later builds once all nebulae are unlocked.
• Physics on dangling pieces such as tentacles or hair (i.e. Huntress or Killi) may clip through the character's body or rapidly vibrate during dialog sequences.
• Yellow/White screen flashing artifact during space combat when using the FXAA aliasing method. Most likely due to the lens flare and or high bloom values.
• On rare occasions, an unintentional song plays during some areas of the game.
• On rare occasions, clicking the ‘Help’ button in the dialogue section of the game can remove the help text but can't be re-enabled until restarting or starting a new scene.
• Potential stuttering when playing back cinematics for some systems. Note there is an option to disable 4k videos from the graphics tab under settings. This has improved performance for some users.
• Reports of performance issues on some Space Combat random scenario maps.
• Animation in You’re Mine Now scene needs finalizing.
• Replay icons and navigation icon concepts are a work in progress, inconsistencies are known.

Notes

• More groundwork has been laid for the eventual implementation of the Devotion system
• Equippables for characters in Grid Combat are a work in progress and may not work as intended. In addition to this, we are considering moving the equipable items menu to the character selection screen where choices can be made right before battle.

What are your "best" porn games you played?

Most of mine would be visual novels, especially if they also have gameplay elements to them whether it's an RPG, dating sim, or whatever. A lot of them have high quality artwork and voice acting and a strong empasis on story that tends to build up into the sex scenes (though not always as much as I'd like). Not exactly this site's speciality (mostly focuses on indie-ish work), but hey I'm also a big fan of indie stuff like Monster Girl Quest, Night of Revenge, Shrift, Tsukinomizu Project's games, etc too, and am pretty big into ero-modded games (like Skyrim).

It needs to have either a pretty decent or better story (I consider gameplay-based premises part of that even if the gameplay itself isn't all that great) or a pretty decent or better gameplay to keep my interest, otherwise if the porn is the only good thing about the game then it really shouldn't be a game in the first place, and those are exactly the kind of games people just tend to get saves for or gallery rips for.

My problem with Subverse is, as I mentioned, the laughable story and characterization coupled with lackluster gameplay that doesn't really have much to do with the pron. The story doesn't seem to be getting any better but at least they're trying with the gameplay.

Too bad the MC gives me the cringe so bad my boner often kills itself.

 

[Korbe]

i bought this on steam when it 1st came out. it was quite the disappointment
i got perma banned from their forum for asking for a skip button tthat they eventually added cus the game was too difficult lol
didn't like the pick 5 gifs system either
sex scenes left me limp too
oh well

None of the games mentioned seem better than Subverse (even in it's unfinished form). For me. And if Subverse porn content looks disconected from game to you - I don't understand how Skyrim with porn added is enjoyable to you as porn content is completely unrelated to story. Visual novels are not even actual game (unless it does have some game mechanics) - just a digital porn novels with pictures.
