Just that they said clearly that all porn will be in pandora mod - 2sec loops with zero dialogs and plot.
As you clearly someone deeply interested in plot and story... Care to give us a recap of the actual plot and story then?

Would the game be better served with have the lewd content tied into actually story and character interaction? Sure. The scenes in pandora more or less a gallery you can unlock scenes and revisit at own leisure. Should think those that just want to fap to this stuff would be happy in that regard :p

Plot: you supposed to be capitan on a ship full of sluts, but they have sex with you only by sending you 2sec clips when you sleep.

Sure if you are banned from any porn outside subverse, you are 14 and having boner is almost constant condition, having instant access to loops is nice. But most of us are not banned from pornhub. So we prefere our porn flavored with plot.

Well. If you look at ACTUAL games as whole. They don't bring out the GOOD stuff right from the start in a game. That is rewards you get in the game as you trudge along. It's not like you play like a d&d or something and loot a "sword of fire +4" or something silly from the first bandit you come across. Early access is just a teaser imho.

People have issues with lack of interactivity, lack of dynamic scenes and overall lack of content when it comes to fetishes and actions present in the scenes. Your reply is that "good stuff don't come until later" and then you compare sex scenes in porn game with loot in an rpg game. This analogy is braindead. Also, if there are "more dynamic and interactive" sex scenes in the full game but they decided to not show any single one in early access, well, that is just a weird move; or, it shows that scenes won't get much more interactive and dynamic, which is what people have issues with.

No, it's about progression. If you expect that all the "good" scenes (even, being in pandora) would be there already at first release in early access, that not really on the game though, that on you.

Don't bother, no matter how "good" of a loop it is, it's still just a loop. Or if he somehow means that the "good" one will suddenly have tie to the plot, that's a possibility, but to be honest, the ones that DO tie to the plot right now, are nothing more than loops too.

They made it clear what their stance is regarding how sex scenes are shown.

I never said the adult content is not the selling point of the game..... But my emphasis is on GAME first, sex, adult content, porn whatever second... Some seems to be all about the lewd bits and the rest is just fluff they don't want to deal with at all.
You are acting like the game part of this is actually good enough to carry the weight. It's not. Game mechanics lack the depth to make it enjoyable in the long run. It's just barely good enough to not be a total drag if the game delivered on the porn. As it stands, none of the components that make this game can stand on it's own merits, be it the gameplay, story, or porn. They are not even integrated into a fluid package either.

Mind you, I was interested in the game for the gameplay rather than porn since beastiality and wacky ass characters/story are not my thing.

The main draw of this game was always the sex. It's not a "game that happens to contain sex," but a "sex game with gameplay." If Subverse did not advertise the sex then barely anyone would care, but it's obvious they put that shit out there. The damn front page has the line "Engage your dicks - it's time to fap."

If the sex scenes are mediocre then it's not surprising why some people are upset. Given how many early access games just... implode for no reason, it's obvious why people would worry.

Considering that Steam mostly release Visual novels, their standards for H games are quite low
Far as I know Valve never made any adult games :p Steam is just a distribution platform that allows distribution of games with adult content. The quality and standard of said games come down to whoever make them. If Subverse end up make it good (sales), then more game studios might start take a gander at the genre with somewhat more serious effort.

Can't wait to try it out. I'm always down for some Sci-fi games.

EDIT: It's not good. Plenty of better games that do porn and story much better.
I love when other game dev trying to bring down a much better developer team then himself :ROFLMAO:
