The porn is good, the animations are smooth and the voice acting is good. There is credit to be given there
I wouldn't even give it that. The porn really is not that good, especially when you compare the quality of it to any animations in the animation section. Not to mention a lot of it doesn't really strike any particular fetish really well, and a lot of them are just painfully boring.

Like just because you don't know what a core gameplay loop is, it doesn't mean that these changes are that "substantial". Changing how leveling and "dating" work is not going to make the GAMEPLAY better. You cannot gaslight us and make us believe this shit. If it DOES change the CORE gameplay loop, I will personally eat my shoe.
You know what a core gameplay loop is, but then also call it repetitive. Do you not know the difference?

I feel like that's apples to oranges. An animator just purely making animation to play on its own doesn't have to think about how to place it within a game.

If that were the case, you wouldn't be able to properly compare the smut in this game to those other animations without seeing the devotion climax scenes first.

I called it repetitive because it's tedious to play. I even think it's fine because I like XCOM, my point stands. Them changing the way leveling work won't change the gameplay. The equipment being added is also not going to change the base game anyway.

Also that being said, they said they would only continue active development if the dough was still coming in. So even after 1.0, there is no guarantee that they will introduce anything else.

Like how most animations are in this game already? You're acting like they're not already thrown in there without any context. What point do they serve in the game already? About the same as most smut animations being made normally. So, your argument doesn't hold any water. It would if they made them relevant to the plot of the game, or had any reason for them, but they did not. So it's essentially just a shitty 3D animation with very lackluster payoff. I'd take just watching an animation over buying Subverse for the porn, because at least with that I get more context in a 1 minute animation than I do a Subverse porn scene.

Soooo like the quest lines to recruit each lady thus far, with numerous dialogue scenes and cinematics, not to mention the pre-beginning teasers to them that were added around Sova’s update (in response to player feedback) don’t qualify? Or the same which is going to occur for the devotion scenes, which lest we forget will be several minutes of cinematic bonking? So times ten is about 30-40 minutes? I think they’re already gonna give enough in the story as is.

The pandora scenes don’t really need much context (though they already gave some with text descriptions which were added from feedback, go figure). The ladies are horny and despite how fast you might skip along the story, takes place over a long period of time (Killision’s map hunt is noted to be several weeks). So Pandora scenes to me is simply all the fucking they had along the way.

Is there a way to change that idiotic panty clad head of MC to something more appealing?
Hey no disrespecting the glory of Leezy-Chan, he worked hard to get those pair of undies xD

Also his design’s a reference to Hentai Kamen, so it’d be rather silly to remove said reference.

A reference is a reference and the MC can be presented at first with that reference. After the introduction, the player can be given the option to disable the said reference, as it's as it can come off as cringeworthy, especially combined with the dialogue. So I don't agree on that point.

So, I stumbled upon Jetsu4K's videos in a coomer (P)a(H)ge to see if there were anything new, and there was lmao. How do I access multi-angled PANDORA scenes? Do I have to open some sort of dev tool or something?

3rd party program. Unreal/Universal unlocker or something, someone else can probably verify it proper

The rating of Subverse is abnormally low. Sure, for a AAA game it would maybe make sense but I believe that a honest reviewer would base their median based on the games present on F95 and this games beats most of them, it's easily in the top 100 games posted here. So, any idea why people are hating on Subverse? :unsure:
Sure, that'd be true if we're grading on a curve. But honestly, there are a lot of games on this site and the majority of them are 1-2s at best. It's no different than Steam or most other platforms.

Personally, this game bored me to tears, nearly made me have a cringe induced stroke, and didn't even give me a boner. I can't see there being a single universe where I'd manage to finish this game without being forced. That first point is admittedly an issue with many other porn games, but at least I can asset rip them or view their smut online and still have a good time. Doing that for this game just left me even more disappointed. It's clear that 90% of the effort went into everything that wasn't the porn. But none of that is even any good, so...

The best I can say about Subverse is that is has good production quality and seems to be well made from a technical standpoint. Doesn't mean that's it's anything higher than a 1 to me if I got no enjoyment from it.

Honestly, the best way to describe this game is to use a line from the Witcher show. "It's like ordering a pie and finding it has no filling". It's especially poignant given that this game does admittedly look like a very good pie at a glance until you actually dig in to it.

I'm personally just waiting for the full release, just so I can see it not really change much, even though they promised it would. It's gonna be hilarious to me. This game has been such a dumpster fire, it's just fun to watch it burn.

I honestly haven't played this since the first or second update. Just figured it wasn't worth jumping from patch to patch, especially since I can't buy it and couldn't be assed to torrent these huge ass files.

I'll see what I think of the game then, but I can't help but think some people have hyped themselves up way more than I did and thus ended up incredibly disappointed.

Expectation management matters and the hype is 100% one of the big issues.
I mean, the devs called it "revolution" and promised the "highest possible quality" back in the days on their kickstarter. Of course people will expect something and if you add a few (very) questionalbe game design choices on top of that, you get a really bad rating.

It's a certainly decent game for casual players and it'll make a good number of people look out for other NSFW games, too.

I didn't expect anything more than their movies on a grander scale, but with about the same amount of depth. Which is to say, not that much. Their stuff always felt like Taimanin at home.
