Title question

The two most common ways sex is used in games is either as punishment (run or get raped games being the most common) or reward, but I've been thinking about the different ways sex is used as an actual mechanic for the game. In Records of Censura, it's a "don't get caught situation", which I find super interesting. In Monster Black Market, sex is all about breeding, which makes the whole loop very enjoyable. In both cases, sex isn't a reward or punishment, it's an essential part of the game

What mechanics have you enjoyed, or have you ever thought about a different mechanic that could use sex?

I don't enjoy needing to fail something to see the scene. Not a fan of rapey stuff like that typically tends to be and it's usually done poorly.

Also I think combat sex stuff could be good, but if it has to happen it should be super fluid. Nothing is more painful that having to fast forward through the same combat sex attack you are locked into for the sixth time in the same battle.... and you probably saw it ten more times in the last combat, and so on and so on.

I do like some stats though because its fun to see changes, and sometimes I don't mind the "sex grind of corruption" if it's done well and split out and enough that I'm not seeing the same blowjob scene 50 times to level up to the next groping stage.

I think well integrated things is the most fun. I think a good example is, I think, Wolf in Shadow. That's a recent game that seems to be in development distress that did the mechanics pretty well and I liked it overall.

I prefer gameplay in the build up and foreplay moments. I prefer not having to think about gameplay for the payoff.

Honestly, I love it when the sexy-stuff is part of game mechanics in some form or another, but sadly, that sort of thing is rare. At least when compared with all the games out there where the sex is barely part of the story, much less the gameplay. Or the games where sex is sort of "just there", where you can remove all the smut altogether and the gameplay and narrative aren't really affected...

As for mechanics that I've enjoyed, in no particular order...

1. Sex for Breeding Mechanics - You've already mentioned Monster Black Market, but there's also Goblin's Burrow that's in this category. Then there's Naedoko Demon's Ground where the protagonist needs to have sex, be impregnated and spawn monsters that she commands in battle. There's some other games that hit this niche, though I can't remember any really notable ones off the top of my head.

This is obviously more of a thing for pregnancy fetishists, all things considered, but it's still a tangible mechanic that affects gameplay, or around which you can build an entire gameplay loop.

2. Brothel and/or Sex-Slave Mechanics - Anyone still remember Slave Maker, where you had to train random girls into slaves, which includes sex skills? There was a variant of that specifically focused around managing a brothel. Since then, there have been other games that have similar ideas in some form or another, but there's not that many of them because the management aspect they tend to get into end up being pretty niche. I suppose those "train this one single girl" games sort of count too, but barely.

AV shooting could be considered a subset of this. There's some games that basically focus specifically on making AVs and selling them for money. There's that one Ressentiment game that I played a while back, and there's also that game from Team Krama, though I haven't played the latter yet.

3. Sex helps with empowerment Mechanics - One of the most commonly known examples for this are Acerola's Cum Collecting games, where cum you collect literally translates directly into character power in various ways. Whether it's Melissa where leveling and upgrading outfits is done specifically just with cum, or Colette where cum is part of the Alchemy system too, etc... the fact remains that sex isn't just a reward for the player, but something the characters in the game world need to think about and interact with. Ruins of Luxoria also falls into this to an extent, as you get skill points as Saria and the MC have sex (with the amount varying on the circumstances) and in general, Mishiji's games tend to have some sort of empowerment mechanic tied to sex.

There's other ways to use this too, from getting buffs, using it to make money or some other form of currency, part of rituals for games with magic... the possibilities reach as far as one's imagination and setting allows.

4. Battle-fuck games - Karryn's Prison is likely the most well known game in this area, where sex is part of combat in all of its forms and basically everything is some form of potential sex battle, including the various jobs around the prison. It's the only game off the top of my head that puts such a high level of emphasis on sex during fights to the point where you can do fights with just sex. There's some other games out there that at least have more to sex during battle than just random in-battle rape... but they're rare and aren't anywhere near as complex. Sadly, this is a mechanic that is overall under-utilized... though to be fair, making it good is quite complicated for a lot of reasons. I suppose Last Evil sort of counts too in this category? Not entirely sure...

This is all just off the top of my head, and there's sub-variations of various kinds that I'm probably forgetting at the moment. A lot of what's doable also depends a lot on what kind of fetishes and niches you want to hit. Hell, even the tone of the game's story can influence what kind of mechanics you have, or at least, their exact form.

Call me crazy, but I just want to fap to sex scenes. Porn tied to game mechanics are overwhelmingly non-fappable in all forms that I've seen implemented. Since it's a game mechanic that will make up the bulk of the gameplay, it has to be generic and repeatable. In most implementations, whether it be battle fuck or brothel, you just get a few generic lines and view the same repeated pics or short animations over and over.

It can be fun, and even tantalizing conceptually ("this char is getting corrupted right now"), but not fappable. And if there is no dedicated fap scenes (proper length, buildup, dialogues in unique full length scenes) outside of whatever mechanics you tie to the sex, then the gameplay better be legitimately FUN, because we are not playing it to fap anymore.

I'm fond of game mechanics where the people know how a penis and a vagina are able to unite together in the physical world and where it feels like whoever may have done the art knows what male and female body parts are supposed to look like and can fairly decently within their style create them to some degree of looking good.

If I have to look at another game where the vagina looks more like some kind of portal to hell with the only shape being their tapered oval, I don't know what I'll do. I guess I'll shut it down and complain on the internet about it. :ROFLMAO:

Battlefuck. The player is the one getting violated by Monsters/Monster Girls. Orgasms work as sweet punishment. Level Drain, Stats drain. But there are very view games which do it right. Good example is Shrift but I wish ejaculating would not be instant Game Over but rather a mechanic which drives you closer to a Game Over.

How about sex as part of a relationship? Neither reward nor punishment in their presentation, just a part of an intimate relationship.
Disgusting!

I don't like the one where you have to lose. I'm not into the rapey stuff at all, doesn't make me feel any good seeing that.

Battle Fuck I love though, because there are actual mechanics in it and it also has a corruption to it which adds more options. I really hate it when the "Battle Fuck" is just a cut out of your character being groped once... that's just trash. It's supposed to have real gameplay tied to it with multiple scenes and variations depending on certain stats, but keeping a balance so you don't just end up annoyed and taking three years to complete every fight. I'm guessing this complexity is why most people don't try too hard with this one. Only Karryn's Prison and Saria Reclaimed (before the downfall) were actually decent with it... that I know of.

Breeding is... fine, not super fond of it, but I don't hate it. I guess it depends on how it is done. Since there might not be real attachment to what's happening other than the breeding part sometimes.

My favorite is the kind that doesn't happen unless you actually allow things to escalate slowly, so I guess some corruption. When you play as a female character and decide how far things can go. In fact trying to keep a balance between teasing and granting a little skin to touch is a mechanic that could be used in a game... Like playing as a teacher and rewarding or promising stuff to students if they do well? Though that would technically be battle fuck maybe if you let it go that way...

Oh shit... I think I actually have a game idea now! Too bad I can't do crap with it lol.

How about sex as part of a relationship? Neither reward nor punishment in their presentation, just a part of an intimate relationship. IMO, intimacy is sorely lacking in the majority of games I've played.
This is cute, yes. Sometimes I will want this. It's something that seems difficult for most people to do, but it is rewarding in its own way. Not many will attempt it in games, and some attempts are just... terrible. There has to be actual character development and proper personalities to them, and a dialogue that is good to read.

The only game I've seen it done where I think it actually enhances, rather than takes away or is at best neutral is Melty Quest.

There is sex on loss, but you can then come back and win, instead of the game just being a string of losses.

re battlefuck

In most implementations, whether it be battle fuck or brothel, you just get a few generic lines and view the same repeated pics or short animations over and over.
For me it a bit different, I want the sex in game to give me arousal, ideas, mood, like kickstart to my then own fantasy ... which I now wonder maybe is even weirder? :unsure:

And to that end eg. Shin-sei den to me had satisfying animated partly-battlefuck.
Those enemies that would sex-attack the female companion could mostly be defeated in one turn (actually a half or third of a turn). So if you did not feel like right then, or do not want her to become any lewder: easy to avoid. But if it is a new enemy/scene, or you just feel like or want to have her more lewded... there.

On the other hand, Futanari Eileen had gameplay-wise (very?) nice battlefuck, but it was ALWAYS battlefuck, with each enemy. And everytime battle ends in enemy-ejaculation animation (all futa), and after a while I really would have liked to switch animations off, but the game does not offer that.
So I got tired, and once I felt stuck just left the game there.

For Virgin Protection Magic there is one thing it should unanimously get praised for: extended options to show/ask/never battle-sex animations already seen.
And that is in rpgmaker. And VX Ace at that.

This might be controversial, but I would like more interactive Sex scenes, or at least foreplay and sex scenes that build up based on what you did in foreplay. You tease clit, you get Vaginal, ass area, Anal, and Boobs with titjob, etc. And if you do it for longer times, you get multiple orgasm sex with ahegao, etc, similar to how My New Life does, but obviously less buggy.
