How much tame do you guys think they made the game to fit steam's lil glovebox?
Always liked fow for their extreme shit so was really hyped about the game untill I played it.
Anyone else feel like they might've actually made an amazing game if they weren't trying to go for steam market?

It was always said to be a vanilla game, ergo safe. they didn't want to chance it being a dark non-con type and chance getting it removed. Given this was their sole focus and product, was better to play it safe.

They did commission some non-canon darker doujinshi as a milestone goal. One of them's by the great Butcha-U

Ik read that before good stuff that's the kind of stuff I feel like people expect from fow not the vanilla crap.
At this point if they are gonna continue to bent to steam's policy and shit I feel like we will never see the old studiofow ever again.

I think that’s a weird take. It’s not as though all of FOW’s films were in that style. Mila Red Riding Hood is the perfect example of what Subverse came to be. Consensual sex with monsters, 4th wall breaking humor. The Zelda flick was also just a consensual bit. And not all of the raffle shorts were non-con content. And that’s without thinking about all the silly Scout cameos throughout the early films (before fowchan ate him xD)

Also if you’ve seen the anniversary trailer they did, they’re very much hinting of their older films, there’s a cheeky joke when the DOA girls take their invite (there’s no monsters in this one, right?)

Rip what about their disc server no info from there as well?
There server is near dead, none talks and no updates. Most of the comunity gave up or got kicked for asking and debating about the DLCs. Also they were constantly deleting posts from the backer's content aka Kickstarter DLCs, so they can avoid another backlash. The damage has already been made though.

Should've stuck to making movies hopefully they will go back to making em.
But then again the greed might make em wanna make another game with kickstarter.

"I really enjoy the game, but the reality is that it feels dead. There are no updates, barely any discussions about it on forums, and even on X almost no one talks about it. Honestly, I don’t have much hope that this game will last much longer."

Cannot get it to work, it still spawn me in the very first mission each time. is there an other location for saves?
On an other hand works on Linux
How did you get it working on linux? I've been trying for a while with lutris. I'm getting a shader missing and uncooked build error. I attached it to the shipping exe. Weirdly when I double click the shipping exe instead of using lutris it opens in a black window with audio only. Running with Proton GE latest.

Edit: Sorry ignore me I saw your earlier post and got it working

no worries : Also I think you can now use lastest proton with ntsync, if you've got a kernel that support it, not sure it will be of much gain in this kinda game, but it does on heavy ones. Note that I tend to stay on X11 but with lastest proton wayland should be ok too.

I like me some grid combat games, this one's is bare bones but not awful.
if they can take some inspiration from something 40K: Mechanicus' combat and upgrading systems next time, the game would be legendary.
Porn Mechanicus would be fucking sick. People love Mechanicus. People love smut.
make Smut Mechanicus, FOW.

I was hoping the Q4 update would add more scenes for existing characters but that doesn't seem to be happening.
