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

[Skybreaker1337]

More than satisfied with the game.
Gameplay loop is much more basic than I thought it would be, but I'll chalk that down to me expecting Xcom quality.
Animations are good, but there were a grand total of 3 scenes that I was interested in, though this will undoubtedly improve as the game opens up.
Voice acting I didn't even know would be in the game, and it's on par or higher than most games I played in the past 10 years.
Script is fucking hilarious, literally had me in tears multiple times, tho this one is down to preference I suppose, as it's mostly memes and references to pop culture. Never expected to play as Hentai Kamen Chris Pratt, but fuck me if it's not something I enjoy more than I should.
Oh yeah, and the music is fucking top notch. Then again I'm heavily into synthwave shit so this soundtrack is like something I would literally buy albums of.

As it stands I think it's worth 30$. Most patreon shit gets far more for far less. I don't even care about sex in the game, just gimme the rest of the story and I'll be happy, the fap is just an extra special bonus.

3.38gb on full link? wut?

Try getting it from steam. It's full size is near 16G. I lucked out. Have a friend who was an alpha tester. Sent me a copy with the beta keys he got for testing.

cut scene stutter like crazy any fix?

Anyone else find Blythe's missile tits more comical than sexy? I also feel that all the body types are little samey. Only Blythe and Huntress really deviate at the moment, and I can't take Blythe seriously. There's a character that's not been introduced yet, who deviance from the norm, but only in height. She otherwise looks similar.

I also think they need to reign in the porno dialogue a bit. It makes the scenes where they try to give weight to the atrocities that have been committed in the backstory, feel out of place. I'd probably enjoy the game alot more if it treated itself a bit more seriously. Not completely, but enough that even side characters can go a sentence without talking about getting their dick wet. It's a little juvenile at the moment.

Speaking of backstory, the way characters convey backstory elements and forced feels incredibly forced. It got annoyed by the end of the current content. It's the worst I've seen it outside of the more amateurish games on here.

And if the only interaction we're going to get during sex scenes is a speed slider, then it should really be applied to most of them. The hugging and posing ones don't need it, but there's about 6 scenes that involve the women and another person that really should have got the full treatment. Multiple angles should also be added to a bunch of these. There's a scene where Lily or Killi (same scene copy/pasted between girls) are getting railed, but I couldn't tell what hole. If the yellow scenes were more interactable, I could understand the other scenes just being loops, but at the moment it feels like the bare minimum has been done with them.

Other than that, this game shows a lot of promise. It needs sprucing up a bit, but I think I'll pick this up when the next batch drops. Not that I expect them even see any of this. I doubt they have people in these forums.

I think most of the reviews on here are accurate, the porn in this game is poorly done and in more ways than one and that's what we here give a shit about. 10sec looped scenes which look ok but nothing spectacular and nothing we haven't seen before even on some VN's on here, no sex really connected to the story, fixed cameras etc etc it's just poorly done really especially considering the money. Compare this games animations to some of the quality games on here and this really starts to look bad.

Don't get me wrong it looks like a great game though just not a great porn game.

I'd agree so far. But for me, the problem is most of the scenes involve fetishes I don't give a flying fuck at a rolling donut about. Like tentacles, and xenomorphs and machine fucking. I just, literally, don't give a toss about those fetishes. Tho at least there isn't any foot fetish stuff shoe-horned in on me, so far.
Tho am still early in. So not much is there for me to unlock yet.

The dialogue is horseshit, I get it "haha it's made by neckbeards and it's a porn game" but do you really have to have some overweight sounding british bloke go HAHA I BET 'E'S ROCKIN A PRE GAME STIFFY EY LADS like oh my god.
Please don't ever voice the main male protagonist, especially not with an EPIC BRITISH LAD voice
Idk i'm mad asf because it completely ruined my interest in this game

For what it's worth, I have that same voice actor in my game, and he does an amazing range of voices in it and sounds great IMO (none of the voices are British ones though); a voice actor can come off completely different due to the script and voice direction they've been given.

 

[YUDoDisO.o]

Why scenes are out of the story? Its like playing ovewatch than going on pornhub for some overwatch porn.

In a way, you are correct, but I still prefer this type of setting over a setting where there is an abundance of sex in a story without any plot. Where you almost literally need to fuck to proceed in the story.

This setting provides a credible story where you actually earn the sex. And because most of us are horny fucks, an option to view more scenes apart from the story.

 

[Readerf2b]

I'll stick with the opinion that with 2M dollars and a Year, you can do much better, I might be a scuffed ass dev that wouldn't be able to do anything related to that project, but I can safely say that:

With 2M2 dollars, and a full year you can do better than an early access for 30 bucks containing .mp4's of beast content.

Like, I respect the gamers behind the project, but I definitely see this as a waste of funds.
One thing that I can praise is the quality of the dialogues though, from the few screenshot I've recieved, shit's bangin'

They could employ hydrafx, his animations are fucking 20 times better. They could hire lostraven , who can write branching stories, porn text to actual porn scene and more character-building dialogs. It looks like they spend all money on polishing shooting - secondary activity to this porn game.

 

[tangre]

Lol is this one of those "this isn't a porn game, it's a game that happens to contain porn" types of games? Honestly, it makes you work pretty hard for some mediocre fixed view single position one-minute-or-less sex scenes.

You dont earn sex, you earn going to your room and watching sextape in clip montage.

Did we get any confirmation for which waifu will be coming next ?

I find all huge tits more comical then sexy. At best. Usually find them repugnant rather then comical. So at least it's an improvement if they're comical.

Haven't spent any PP on scenes yet. Only ones I can unlock are for stuff I'm not interested in. Like tentacles or machine fucking, or xenomorphs. So have only seen the 'recruitment' scenes so far. But yeah. Was hoping for more then a single 'pose' with a slider for speed. Result is I've been playing the game and not the porn >.<

The funny part is that even the "It's a real game with porn" argument is nonsense. It's a kinetic novel with two mini-games and a gallery attached to it.

90% on steam and 2.5/5 over here. i don't know who to believe? meme reviews or people who actually have experience playing adult games.

Both are legitimate so long as you understand the audiences. On Steam a majority of people are newbies or casuals to erotic games and get a good enough kick from just the novelty of a sex game itself. They’ll have some fun with the mechanics maybe, probably masturbate 1 or 2 times, and mostly laugh about it later with friends going: “dude it’s a video game but with like porn lol!” It’s a very normie response, but it also gives the benefit of seeing how people without an attachment are viewing the game. Most of which seem to be taking this as more of a sex-comedy game than one solely for porn and are having fun with some of the different elements.

Here on this site; a lot of us use these games as a main source of erotica/smut and so there’s a lot more expectation/criticism. For people who have a bit more experience with the genre and sub-culture, some element might not be up to snuff and seem more like padding than gameplay. It also seems like there was a reverse expectation from what the Steam community thought. More people here were expecting a porn/erotica game with light comedy and combat elements. Even the annoying NTR debate shows that people on this site and places like /aco/ have more of a connected interest in this game, be it positive or negative, and so they are going to usually be more passionate and/or heated.

There’s still bias on both spectrums no matter what and some people are going to love or hate this game for stupid reasons. Even though I’m probably more on the disappointment train, I can at least get how people outside of the WEG subculture are going to get a few laughs and see a few tits and that’s all they really wanted from the game anyway so for them it’s fine a no big deal. I was just personally hoping for more story related H-scenes and a more natural balance between them and the gameplay.

We’ll see how this plays out since the game is still technically not done. But so far this is looking like right now this is going to be similar reception-wise to a game like Huniepop where gamers outside the WEG sphere are going to have a mostly positive time; while more people within the sphere are going to be either mixed to negative because they were expecting more/something different.

Nah, for me I actually have enjoyed the scenes with Blythe - it's like a tease, knowing that perfect rack is something we'll get to check out eventually. I'm more worried about her personality in the sack. I'm the type that generally handles the control in the bedroom with a female, the last thing I ever want is a power struggle, that would be a huge turn off, so I am more worried about that with Blythe than anything else.

Most likely some animators not from fow will make it faster, lol.

You dont earn sex, you earn going to your room and watching sextape in clip montage.

Did you not finish the missions and forced into their first 'recruitement' scene? If you did, then how did you get that scene? By playing the game and earning it, right? Because before doing that the character wasn't even unlocked in the pandora menu.

 

[Majordeathwish]

Steam thinks huniepop 2 is the porn game of the century, nuff said

Well Huniepop 2 is kind of fun though. Less about the porn though, which is the main fucking point, but I digress.

 

[aloxtheking]

is this a full release? why is 0.1?

 

[derpmcderp]

Didn't mind it until I got to the flagship boss fight. Three attempts and I just completely lost interest, not fun at all.
