Unreal Engine Completed Subverse [v1.0] [Studio Fow]
well that was bad... a game being a porn game donst automatically mean that everything is a joke, and if the tone is "funny" that donst mean it have to be absurd too, i dont even know what the game is trying to do... turn u off? they have to go back to hiring cause that writer sure donst know shit about what he is doing, he trhow 4 th wall break comments like candys, is like everyone in the game is Deadpool... and the character is bad enough with that silly mask, no need for the cute gesture´s and akward interactions... off and that is just the first 10 mins of game, i just cant keep playing it, its a fking cringe fest.
You know, for what it's worth, this is still one of the better porn games out there. That's a damning with faint praise take considering 99% of the "finished" ones are kind of trash or super short in content but overall this is genuinely pretty okay so far. I genuinely enjoy both of the game modes so far. The voice acting sounds okay enough by porn game standards and visuals' polish rivals that of an Illusion game or the Fallen Doll/Project Lovecraft devs.
My only real gripe so far is that, as much as it overall is fairly enjoyable for what it is so far, the writing did make me go "Who is this even for," at various points. The constant 4th wall breaks and dead meme spouting feels like the game was written by a cynical old man trying to appeal to the young adults of this generation and the commentary + satire the game make it feel like this game is going to become a ticking timebomb of controversies from all sides as development of this project progresses.
While I'm at it, I think "how much game should a porn game actually have" is a catch 22 kind of discussion. I've seen people here complain about Illusion's games, which tend to focus on the porn more than actual gameplay, being "more of the same." I personally feel what we have so far has potential to be pretty good in both departments in spite of the faults people are pointing out here and as far as porn games go that's pretty damn good in my book.

If you are looking for actual NTR, there is none. If you think non contextual gifs of girls using monsters as masturbatory aid is NTR, well, maybe there is. You certainly won't see any NTR narrative though. In fact, you won't see any context period for any of the scenes.

to be honest, I finished playing because of the space combat, which is more fun than ground one or the pandora system. There aren't many choices that could be made, but the combat is at least challenging and satisfying.

Oh...That sucks! I read that they are planning to add actual NTR in the future do you know if that is true? Also the ntr tag on this site is being miss used again...

After reading the comments, I am realizing that they do not know the meaning of "Early access"

If this was a porn game, the current implementation of gameplay could be considered as "good enough." It's actually pretty fun for a while.
This is not a porn game though. It really isn't. Out of the 5 hours or so of content so far, maybe 10 minutes of that is for the porn if we are being generous. Those 10 minutes consist of glorified gifs that have no context whatsoever. There are no dialogues during or prior to scenes except for the recruitment scenes. And you can bet your ass this is not something that can be fixed within the current framework of the game. They need to overhaul the entire Pandora system and pretty much the entire game to integrate the sex into the story.
It absolutely fails as a porn game because they clearly focused more on the gameplay and "VN" aspects more. Now with this context, if we evaluate the current gameplay modes objectively, it falls way short. The ground fights have no depth. No equipment, no skill trees, no customization of monsters, no crafting, no breeding, no terrain, no cover mechanics, no tactics. The space battles are a little better, but it also has very little depth. The secondary weapon changing based on your shipmate is about the only thing that adds variability to the monotony. The ship upgrades are a joke. There are no other ships. No ship selection with different primary weapons, different maneuverability, tankiness, etc. No ship parts to customize the ships.
These issues are also not something that could be fixed easily by just waiting for more content. The skeletons for both gameplay modes are set already. They would need the humility to see the faults and overhaul the systems.
Finally, that leaves us with the VN side of things. The humour is up to personal taste, so I won't get into it much, but they do a bang up job at destroying any investment into the fate of these characters. The whole narrative is one big joke. Subjective issues aside, the game has no choices whatsoever. This would be easier to fix than the gameplay issues though.
No. There was a backer goal for more xeno animations, but never one for more NTR.
The problem is he is probalby using the word NTR incorrectly, and thinks any time a woman has sex with anyone other then him its NTR. when that isn't what NTR means.

Talk about over-hyped. I can see potential but the gameplay loop grind and the weird way to unlock H scenes is going to really turn me off from playing future updates. Not to mention I've seen better script dialogue in asset flip games. This game reminds me of that old school porn game Bone Town where its over the top silliness is fine, but that silliness doesn't cover up that the actual story content is lacking / nonexistent. Script plays out like a porn movie "Oh heeeey captain you saaaved me lets fuuuck". And I wouldn't be surprised if the rest of the game plays out exactly like this, not just the one character.
One thing I will defend is that this is Studio Fow. They have always been notorious for having monsters and big alt-races fucking women. So the monster stuff is not surprising in the slightest. You're pretty dumb if you expected something else. It would be like going to NLT's games and being mad there's MILFs. Well no shit, all their games/works have had that in them lol.

I don't follow the development, but I doubt it. This is a light hearted affair. Everyone is sex positive and casual about such things. No one is being stolen by the evil cock. The sensitive self inserts might get offended if a girl jokes about playing with the pet monsters all night, but neither the MC, girls, or narrative will view this kind of thing as a betrayal.

the only feel I have for the MC after 30 minutes is that I dont care about him I cant project myself into him
>NTR
Dodged a bullet there. Ntr is one thing. But watching cuckold and deformed dicks alien gangbang is no no.

Yeah it seems the "ntr backer goal" never existed. People on this site use the tag wrong all the time and this include the mods so that sucks and a lot of times you never know if a game has actual ntr on it. And the sensitive self inserts, those people need to touch grass is not that serious, is never that serious. Thanks for answering
