Unreal Engine Completed Subverse [v1.1.1] [Studio Fow]

[Leo D. Marstone]

Played another 1-2 hours of the game and the game is fine but there is always in the back of my mind that this has been advertised as a porn game and as a porn game it just don't delivers.

The game and the sex scenes are complete two entitys that just.... clash. The devotion scenes have context but as I said in an earlier post this is just a very very small percentage of the game. Literally endgame and it's just one scene per girl in a double digit hour game.
You can't bring this up as a counter argument or solution about the main complaint about the game. If it would be 50-50 then I would never had said anything but like this?

Just wow.

Everytime I go into Pandora I have this thought process and it baffles me to no end and sucks the fun out of the game. At least for me.
I honestly don't know why they doubled down, even quadrupled down on this formular. They got this feedback very early on in development and still decided against it. What were going on in their heads and decided that this was a good idea to pursue? I genuinely don't get it.

It doesn't matter where you look but the universal complaint are the context less sex scenes that make 90% of all scenes and even Mr. Weeaboo here who holds the flag up for the game can't deny that. But he seems fine with it and can't see the problem.
That's fine I guess. I am glad that at least he has his fun with the game.

Anyway, this is my last rant about the game. The first voyage into making a porn game with a huge budget has failed miserably as such. Gonna delete the game without even using the full save.

Dunno about the situation over on steam because the game is geoblocked for me but I doubt the opinions are any different over there. Would love to have a statement about it form the devs since the game is now released and opened to many more players.

You need to complete the anomalies with the purple exclamation mark. Completing all purple exclamation mark nodes gets you lvl 40 Demi.

You're wrong. You need to explore the anomalies marked as an Event. Anomalies with a purple mark only provide additional materials.

A lot of anger is fomented by the game's monster x girl content that StudioFOW is known for. There's always problems on this site when a waifu touches anything else but the sacred penis.

But rating this game less than 3* is a joke when the average Daz3D game with 2% of the effort gets 4* - 4.5*. This is a high quality, professional product that we rarely see in this sector.

Yeah I definitely disagree. There are tons of trash h-games out there, but that doesnt mean we should be grading on a curve here. If we were comparing productions values, sure, but we're reviewing the game itself which has glaring flaws.

any torrent link for 1.0?

I certainly wouldn't say the game failed. It's a very tricky audience to appease with games like this as many people will sink 30$ for just fap material, and this isn't that. Bad choices were made but I think this game will break through to more mainstream audiences more than any other game before it.

I'd know this, because I ALONE 100%'D THE GAME ON RELEASE DATE.

Apparently, the DLC gave me all the upgrades

I think the problem is that fans hyped themselves up a little too much about what this game would be. Adding to that years of bitterness from the EA period and you get what we have now.

Oh well, at least it ain't Veilguard, am I rite?

I struggled with finding the save location for non steam.
It's a variation to what has been said.

Try this:
C:\Users\[YOUR NAME]\AppData\Roaming\GSE Saves\1034140\remote

This is, in part, StudioFow's doing as they declared themselves the first AAA porn game and advertised themselves as a groundbreaker. And they were groundbreaking, to an extent, as there were so much fantastic cinematics in terms of production quality and animating skill that is unequaled in an H-game. However, if you were to believe this was, in fact, a AAA game on par with other AAA titles like Baldur's gate or even Mass Effect, this will come across as hot garbage in comparison- mostly in terms of all the "back of house" game design components like writing, pacing, etc.

Early access also does no one favours in my opinion, but it does help the struggling dev get a couple bucks to stay afloat and/or keeping a developer from releasing an incomplete game.

I think that problem is with potential.

With moneys put into this game, with top quality of some aspects like voice acting, its a shame that they failed to put everything together in a correct way.
All they needed to do was:
Get rid of pandora after initial release and everyone saying it is bad.
Everything that is in pandora should be dispersed around the game, it should be a prize for competing quests, or just checking girls in right time, or be part of the collectables. And have at least textual context, like in most VNs.
I would also say that they didn't invest any writing in chemistry between girls. They barely interact with each other outside of their update.

Obligatory Black Souls mention, but also Demon Roots and Memoirs of a Battle Brothel. Examples of full on games that have the H-Scenes directly tied to the story and are made way better cause of it.

As much as I appreciate people pushing the limits of the engine, I'd still struggle calling anything made in RPGM a game. It's more of a torture. Which is arguably a good thing if one is a BDSM enjoyer. Not for me though.

 

[BrandonPoop69]

Is the fortune ruined makeup scene from the trailer in the game or was that something they just forget about?

 

[Leo D. Marstone]

I wonder why people don't like the RPGM games.

It is the most user friendly experience, has a ton of scripts, easy to cheat, can be easily translated and most of the time can be played with one hand. Is it just because it is an engine at its core for RPGs? The design?
I played my best porn game experiences on this engine and I hope we will still get games for years to come.

Literally this.

Would elevate the gameplay experience ten fold. Pandora can stay in the game to rewatch unlocked scenes but the approach needed to be different.
I slowly believe that the writer for the game had no idea how to write smut and to organically implement it in the story xD

Kinda probable. They should have hired lostraven to make it work.

Not after they learned they can make a shitton of money through crowdfunding for less than minimum effort, probably gonna make another game, take longer to do it, and put less stuff in it.

They had a lot of luck, they decided to crowdfund this when people were at the top of being fed up with censorship everywhere and they advertised themselves giving everything and everyone a middle finger and just doing their stuff. It brought in a lot of people, including me. Guess who changed the rules midway, altered backer rewards and banned almost all backers from Steam discussion threads and discord because they dared to call them out on this.

any other games/show where i can hear kasidora's voice

I think money from the backers went straight into the noses of developers, because this is not a multi-million quality game. About Pandora - people were complaining about it since the start, everyone hated it, but guess what, they just knew better and did what is better and easier for them. It is like someone said, launch overwatch and after won game just play any porn video of futa Diva railing Tracer - it's basically the same, except with overwatch I can at least choose what do I want to have on which monitor, in Subverse I can't because it pretends game and porn is one entity.

It is, sometimes, grindy. Especially when you need to run around a map with random battle encounters.
But imho, i find much more tedious to click-click-click thru renpy "life simulators".

 

[lumine99]

Anyone know how to run this on dedicated GPU? It always launch with my integrated GPU. I've tweaked windows settings, nvidia settings and nothing works

 

[Readerf2b]

I said that)
