My frustration: The complete absence of games with a female protagonist. Those that are there are either multiple protagonists or HTML or lesbianism .

One very important thing to note is that the big tits haters are a small but very vocal minority. Usually in games, when you look at their polls, their patrons usually choose the bigger tits (not always the case. Eve in summertime saga is a great example), thats the reason why many games with flatter girls usually end up with the bigger girls having more scenes.
So bear in mind that even If you don't like them at the end of the day your patrons will end up voting them up, because the reality of life is that men love big tiddies.

Also the other day I was sorting nhentai by more popular and little boy with big dick was like half the front page. So there's that also.

I'm not against big tits. They can be beautiful, too. I prefer smaller ones more, that's true. Just because they look more natural. What I don't like (don't think you could call it "hate") are not big tits, but melons where the tits should be.

And for nhentai: Keep in mind, that half of the manga porn is tentacle porn. That's something what you only/mainly can find in japanese porn. In my opinion it's just disgusting, but they like it. So don't take hentai as a refference for other nations favorites other than japanese ;)
I don't say that western and japanese don't can have the same preferences, but you can't assume it in every case.

There's a lot of frustrations here that I agree with so I'll add some not mentioned.

- There's not enough VNs or games with muscular or fit women. I'm not talking about huge muscles but some small drawn details to indicate someone is fit or in shape and has realistic tits. I'll give a plus if they're tan skinned. By the way if anyone has any recommendations let me know!

- Here's a big one- long ass meaningless sex dialogue. I know this isn't going to change in nukige VNs but at least delete a few oohhh ahhhh ohhh ahhhh arrghhh lines.

For me, I don't want my porn games /stories/comics to be "natural", or true to life in a lot of ways, though. (Although I'm a huge fan of big natural tits IRL). For me, porn is inherantly a fantasy. I want to push the boundries of what's plausible on the human body, and for all of the characters to be as sexy (in my mind) as they can be. I don't want average looking people doing regular things. I want the game to feature things that I've never had the chance to do, or likely never will. That goes for settings, situations, events, and the characters themselves. For me, that's what's hot.

tentacle is not popular, also nhentai is a page in english and the popular stuff is in english and even if it wasn't i was browsing by popular in english. So it still applies as a reference.

By far most of the side is japanese ^^
Just try searching for "japanese" and then do the same for "english".
And yes, tentacle porn is popular in japan. They have tons of it. I rarely see it in media from other countrys. And mostly it's just a japanese refference joke. Maybe it's not the most popular form of porn there, but by far more than everywhere else, as much as I know. At least if the amount of content counts, that has it in it. And I would say that's your whole point.

And I said it: It could be the same everywhere else (with your "big dick - small boy" assumption), but using an internet site as refference that has only(!) content from one country is at least questionable. And in my experience your assumption is also not true. I played a bunch of porn games. And most of them have a normal sized young adult male as main character. And also the penis of most of them are average or just a little bit bigger. My penis is normal sized, I would say. And most MCs have the same size as me.
Yes, there are a few with enourmous und unnormal big or long genitals, but that's just as ugly as melon-breasts on woman. But everyone has his or her own kinks, so I just play what I like and let everyone play what they like.

Don't misunderstand me. I like hentai. But as for every medium: I don't like everything or every kink that you often see there. For example they are crazy (if you would ask me) with big, fat and ugly guys fucking small and petit ones. Don't know who wants to see that ugly guy, but sometimes I think this is the main MC found in Hentais and japanese (RPG-Maker) games. And that's also a thing I only notice in japanese content. And even if the content was translatet to english, the source is japanese and people who like that stuff are there. They are not the average western people, but pervs like you and me ;)

1. The lewd steps most games have, starting with handjob. I'm not going to stop playing if someone fucks.
2 'Saving the best for last', the one you're supposed to end up with I suppose. She's rarely the one I want to end up with anyway.

Regarding your comment about playing well after a sex scene. You don't feel as if that "path" or whatever context it may be, isn't finished when you reach that point? In tradition, sex is like the end goal. That's the homerun, the getting lucky, the achievement. Everything beforehand is a means to an end. There lies this implication that sex is the end of the road when it comes to progression. However, you think otherwise which I'm interested in.

What aspects could help a developer keep content engaging well after a full sex scene. What makes the second one just as exciting or playful as the first scene? How can a developer go about keeping the player engaged well after meeting that goal of having sex.

I'd like more variation and while sex might be 'the end' I'm not saying everyone starts with sex...just mix it up. Sometimes sex is just sex. Other times it leads to something deeper.

I dunno, more sex? :D

1. Arbitrary stopping points for "updates".
2. Games where half the stuff "advertised" on the UI is "under development--coming soon". Just take it out if it's not ready yet. It gets annoying after the 5th or 6th time.
3. Games where your choices are meaningless.
4. Arbitrarily prolonged grind-paths to seducing major love interests. As an alternative, I have seen, e.g., incest games where you make early progress with Mom and/or Sis and it doesn't make me lose interest in playing further. Playing an in-development game for 4+ years and almost never getting a consensual fuck scene feels like a "fuck you" to the player base.
5. Games where the female characters barely communicate or interact. The idea that one could seduce all the female characters in a household without their knowledge or at least suspicion is a bigger suspension of disbelief than believing a tween boy with a 12 inch cock can seduce 25 extremely attractive women(including the entirety of their female blood relatives) over the course of one summer.

When a game has the "Male Protagonist" and "Lesbian" tags. Don't lie to me.
When they have a huge cast of women and you know you're just going to be drip fed content with the 2-3 you actually like.
When the MC is a barely functioning over the top teenage horndog.

Sandbox games. Fuckin sandbox games.
