What's your opinion on voice acting in SS in the future? Yes or no? I was always a "no" guy myself, but I've been playing Huniepop 2 recently and the voices there run the whole gamut, from "so awful you'll mute the game whenever the character's on screen" to "heart-meltingly adorable", so you really get a look at the potential upsides and downsides of adding VA to SS. If it were done right, it would be spectacular and add new dimensions to a lot of the characters. If it were done badly, well... at least you can always turn it off.

Personally I'm still a "no" since there's so much scope for it to go wrong, but how do you feel?

(Note: I'm not asking if you think it will happen -- as I'm fairly certain it never will -- but whether or not you think it should happen)

VA is pretty much like you said it, hit or miss, no inbetweens. However, I do think that from the sheer amount of ladies in SS, it would either be a lot of reused voice actresses, leading to the good ol' problem of "talking to herself" or... it would ramp up the cost of the game for the patrons.

Not to mention the size of the files themselves...

I'd like to see the voice acting done really well, but given how many characters, dialects and parodies there are, I just don't think it's possible anymore, unless DC spends a literal fortune on it.
Average voice acting would be kinda "meh" and bad voice acting can pretty much ruin a specific character, given that it's not really an option to simply disable one character's voice at a time. So either everything is done well, or it's not really worth bothering.

Voice acting in porn games is pretty............ yeeeesh. That's one thing I'm not keen on with NLT games - it's weird having a character say "Hello!" followed by another character saying one line, and then rest of the convo is unvoiced. That's goofy.

But I do agree that sound effects would be a sweet add.

Yeah I have to agree. I feel like it would be a waste of time and would just ruin my perception of the characters voices. It might even make me not play the game (It would have to be really bad tho). But what do I know? I generally just mute the game (and listen to some music).

Thoughts on Stadium;

Decent date venue, although a bit excessive for such a small town.
Could be good if 'Pink Cyclone' gets a mask-match against another hot wrestler and it's hosted in the Stadium.

EDIT; as an athlete, they tend to be superstitious. Maybe she bangs MC before a match, wins, and now that becomes a ritual she thinks she has to do. And then the match is a perfect opportunity for torn outfits/flashing, plus a 'reward' after the win by letting MC bang the opposition also?

Other than that there would be other buildings I'd rather see in this area.

Strip Club maybe? Could be worked in with the Mia/Helen story and one of them ends up in that joint...?

DC's making nearly three-quarters of a million dollars a year of this game's Patreon, he can fucking afford it!

that would kill the game for me, i can imagine Roz talking like monsters inc, my dic would need surgery to be alive or diane talking like some hillbilly or even maria with some fake italian accent; JUST NO!!!

Fuc, now i cant stop hearing Tony saying "its a me, Mario!"

First off, removing Roz from the game, and replacing her with the blowjob nurse would fix that problem; second Diane wouldn't have a hillbilly accent, that would be Cristal, and Clyde over in the trailer park. As for Maria, and Toni, make'em sound like they're from Brooklyn, and BAM! Job done.

Dang,i missed a lot of talking here(jk lmao),so to be tbh voice acting could be a big turn on for someone and also a big turn off for someone else...it depends a lot of how the voice acting will be made,let's take for example Jenny and some hentai voice acting like "Onii-chan" and stuff for me it's a complete turn off cuz i hate when on hentai movies the girl says that stuff but if the voice acting is made by like real pornstars in a studio i could care less but if it's too much even if a pornstar decides to do it then it's a huge no for me,so for me it's a 50/50 and an example for voice acting in a game made kinda bad and also good is My New Life by Beggar of Net,don't get me wrong it's a good game with a lot of content behind it but voice acting needs a remake for me,in some parts of the sex scenes voice acting it's good but on others not so much.

Sorry for my bad english though.

There's not a single VN i would play with sound on, but some other games are really fun with the sound on for example, on illusion games when you girls are locked in ahegao mode (eyes rolled and tongue out) they lose their shit and star screaming, crying and moaning like crazy for me thats good voice acting + such a huge turn on + funny as hell too :ROFLMAO:
