I don't think its that wild to imagine that there's people that are in fact happy to see an adult game that is actually a game.
Unreal Engine Completed Subverse [v1.1.1] [Studio Fow]

It doesn't even have to be just about mantics. That was just an example.

The whole purpose of Pandora is for players to unlock what scenes that tickles their interest. And you need to do the side quests to earn enough points to unlock these. They don't want to include things in the story progression that would make people upset and cry. Like those poor victims of ntr and such...

Hush now, we can't have you making perfectly reasonable and realistic suggestions about the game that the studio will just brush off and pretend like people only wanted "a REAL game with some porn on the side (TM)".
EDIT: For the people saying doing so will make the mantic scenes too tied to the story and the NTR crowd will lose their shit - the OP literally said SIDE quests, not the main story.
Can I bother anyone to upload this file in Subverse\Subverse\Content\Paks\pakchunk0-WindowsNoEditor.pak ?? mine got corrupted

They set out to make a GAME with porn in it. Not just a porn game. Consider the number of people that bought the game on steam so far. I'm quite sure there is enough of people that wanted an actual game, not just the scenes in pandora to wank and bitch over..

Yeah but people lost their shit just cuz its mentioned in one dialogue sequence that Lily has toggled the mantics in her past. So I'm fine with the majority of content being within Pandora. They've already started living up to have sex involved in the story more, and the devotion quest scenes will eventually be the highlight.
Isn't it obvious that people hate loopdora and adding more loops just doesn't count like an update?
They set out to make a shitty low budget game, but added some porn to it to make people throw money at them. Right now its a shitty game with shitty implemented porn.

I feel like there are some misunderstandings in this thread about what "a porn game" or "a game with porn" actually means. At first glance, I didn't even make any distinction between these phrases as they literally meant the same thing to me. At some point during the development, however, some people started emphasizing that Subverse was always MEANT to be a video game first, and an adult experience second, i.e. a "game with porn".
On the other hand, they think "a porn game" is your run-of-the-mill RPG Maker/2D sidescroller hentai game with static CGs and basic gameplay/visuals. That is, an adult experience first, game second...Well, what did you expect with the shoestring budgets these indie creators have? Of course they can't make a REAL game (TM) by themselves with just their monthly Patreon earnings of a few thousand USD at most.
I am certain the vast majority of backers expected Subverse to be an adult experience first, but with the added bonus of it feeling like an AA game with enjoyable gameplay and great visuals. I am tempted to make another poll about this silly discussion on semantics, but there has already been plenty of screenshot proof in previous pages that even the mods and devs have literally called it a "porn game" on Discord.

Doesn't change that hours of gameplay, dialogue, and cutscenes were added. If you didn't like the sex before, then this update was never gonna do anything for you, and you could have just kept waiting.

I'm pretty sure that the Steam crowd never heard of other porn games, or even Studio Fow's animations.
Hours of dialogs? Hours of cutscenes? Maybe one hour combined, and only if you are into listening one seriously overused joke. And of course thanks for hours of repetitive shmup and grid. On the other hand, i could have just started the game from begging and have same repetitive shmup and grid, without this ultra necessary update.

People keep repeating how tired they are of seeing the NTR argument but still push the "They were making a GAME WITH PORN, NOT A PORN GAME", as though they seriously believe Subverse got 2 million in funding because people weren't advertised a porn game. A porn game having gameplay does not mean it's not a porn game. We've been through this already. Rance has porn and it's still a fully fledged tactical RPG game. You know damn well when people saw the trailer about it being a sex adventure in space, people weren't celebrating it for being a video game. Fow didn't champion itself as the first triple AAA funded porn game and link all those Kotaku articles about it being one otherwise.
Dumb as shit bogus argument you two keep repeating.
