That's nice but thankfully it doesn't work that way. In actuality, there's no closing window for critical feedback and reviews. Certainly not if the dev himself is the one reaching out to you for it. Nor is it recommended to reserve game critique for when you're ready to provide it alongside a bribe. That's a rather unhealthy perspective.When I find an AVN to check out, I look at the tags, decide whether to download or not, and if downloaded -check it out.
If I like it, I stay and provide feedback on what I like/what I don't like and engage the community.
I also assess how long an AVN has been in production.
An AVN that is out for a few months to perhaps a year, and where the dev is asking for feedback - I feel like I have something to offer as One person who tried their creation, and I will provide that feedback - especially if I enjoy the AVN enough to return for multiple downloads.
If an AVN has been in production for years, I recognize the best way to offer feedback is by choosing to support a dev with $ and commenting as a supporter with skin in the game.
I know a number of devs who don't bother checking F95 because some of the user-ids think that their opinions have the merit and weight worth far more than that of a single user id.
As for me - if I have little positive to say about an AVN, I actually choose to move on.
If enough aspects of an AVN are not to my liking, like: the writing style, the render quality, the graphics style, UI, etc, I might offer feedback once, but then I move on.
After all - I've has 'my say' so - why stay?
For those who want to camp and complain - have at it!
I have a significant backlog of AVNs to check out on F95 and I intend to enjoy one or more on my weekend.
Cheers!!
As for the tags, they do not give all the information. By these tags this would be a 6 out of 5 game for me. That's why we have the discussion and review sections. It exists not just to stroke developers egos with complements. But to help players inform themselves about the game. To fill in the crucial details that the tags could never provide.
This only works if you allow people to discuss a game's shortcomings without jumping down their throats. If players take the time to explain why they didn't like the game before moving on. Instead of creating toxic positivity scenarios where every game on this website has a 4+ score because everyone else gets bullied into moving on immediately.
The only people that did something wrong here are those that continue to attack reviewers and commenters for expressing their opinions on the game through proper channels. If you want them to move on, let them. They don't want to be here either so stop baiting them back by calling them alts and impugning their intentions.
Cheers!!
