What do you miss the most in adult games?

I noticed that when I play adult games, there are some thing that I like, and some things, that I don't like. For me, I know what this things are. And also I noticed that I look for something in the games, and rarely it is there, and when it is, I like it very much. And I'm curious – what are these things for you? What do you miss in adult games? What do you look in adult games? Your porn game dream world right here, in the comments :) And if it is some kinky stuff, you can write a private message to me. I really wanna know.

Based on the wording of the title, belly bulge and cum inflation. Plenty of other things to enjoy but the way most games are drawn that one definitely feels "missing" more than "deliberately omitted" (which is what I would normally classify bleeding, screams of agony, incontinence and broken bones as).

Slightly more intentional: lack of pubic/body hair in a setting where shaving is not likely. A modern highschool sure, but if you've been marooned on an island for days and a sharp stone is T2+ crafting the dudes should have beards and the ladies shouldn't be smooth as a baby's butt either.

The devs want their game to please the widest possible audience. That's why most games don't have "hardcore" stuff. I even suspect some devs to hold back and stick to regular stuff. That's no good cause I think we could have much more unique games. A recent example of that is Gates Motel. The dev doesn't give a crap about standards.

I don't say that we should have rape, blood and abuse in every game but, you know, embrace your fetishes ! Don't be ashamed of them. As for the others, try to have a little bit more of an open mind.

Sorry if I'm a little bit out of subject, I just felt like saying it...

Yeah, I understand! :) I just want to know what public wants, exactly. Because there are a lot of games, but are they really fulfill what players want?

Realism is good, I agree. Other things are understood too :)

Well, one of the things you learn early, writing fiction, is that novelists know how their books will end long before the ending is written. I'd like to get that sense from more adult games, that the devs actually thought through how the game ends or wraps up.

- Lesbian content in general (No performances, no distraction for otherwise straight characters, no MFF threesomes!)
- More specific: Stories about a woman who used to be straight, ideally a milf, turned lesbian by a powerful lesbian character. In that case, the first time she feels attraction to a woman should be dramatic and life-changing, NOT casually trying something new.
- Interesting settings: Steampunk, cyberpunk, mythology, science-fiction or fantasy. Not some boring present day environment.
- Powerful and relevant characters. Not trivial boring family McAverage.
- Female protagonists capable of easily butchering any attempted rapist. If someone tries to rape an armored woman in a fantasy world, I expect him to be torn to a pile of bloody pieces within the next five seconds. No other outcome possible. And if it's ten guys trying to rape her, the only difference is the size of the bloody pile.

Personally I would be happy if games were just consequent, I mean, give the characters a personality and follow through it, if a girl is a lesbian don't make her have sex with the male MC, unless you at some point can get a magic to mind control people or something that is outside the box, a dominant character don't want to be treated like a pet, things like that.

And if I can dream... stop with the optional stuff, give your game a personality and make things avoidable rather than optional, the main difference is that when it is avoidable it means that it is part of the game, it has mechanics and it will happen if you don't do anything.

Every time I see "options" so that x scene happens or not it's kind of... personally I like seeds of chaos, but having every single scene optional kills the mood for me, I would love a mode in which we take that stupid part and only maintain options that make sense.

You should play real Games then. Play modded Sims, New Vegas or Skyrim.
Fully agreed. Porn games can't compete with regular games when it comes to gameplay. Demanding so would be unrealistic, as porn games are usually made by one or two people, most often amateurs, while regular games are made by billion dollar corporations.

In that case, I strongly suggest the MC not to be male OR not to have the mind control available. Turning a lesbian straight is always a boner killer.

That depends on your likes, I for example would love a game in which you are a girl and can influence people's sexuality, would like it too if you are a male and the girls can become lesbians, but well my thinking is "outside the box" in the sense that the MC isn't the center of my world.

A lot of newer games just jump right into the erotic material. They either don't establish the characters or they make huge leaps in logic from what they would really do. There really needs to be more character development and consistent writing that corresponds with the character thought process and personality. That's why I love corruption/trainer games like Witch Trainer, 4 Elements trainer and other similar games.

Ren'py isn't well set up for dynamic gameplay. RPGM can be set up for classic 16-bit style console RPG combat. Unity can support a full 3d engine. Unreal Engine of course can also support full 3d. But, yes, extensive gameplay, not just branching dialogue choices leading to sex scenes, is going to be pretty demanding to program for.

Straight turned lesbian is hot of course. But the other way round is so anticlimactic. As I'm not an immersive player, I don't mind, if it is the MC a girl has sex with. So a lesbian woman stealing a girl, or better a milf from the MC is fine for me, as long, as I (the player, NOT the MC) can see the scene.

Please enlighten me. Where in my post did I "demand" the production, to be on the level of a billion dollar corporation.
I understand you jumped to this logical extreme, because you have no good argument... but still wanted to throw shade at me for some reason.
People make flash and indie games all the time, which has gameplay. How many people did it take, to make Stardew Valley or Undertale?
The question was: "What do you miss the most in adult games?" And "I" missed some actual gameplay, instead of the usual Patreon dairy farmed "hold ctrl" VN type of games, that is sadly quite predominant now a days.

Actual gameplay.
I agree, this thing is the most missing, in my opinion. The only thing that keeps players in a game is nude girls and sex, and some minimal gameplay to pull it all together. I think, gameplay that is interesting by itself, plus sex and some interesting corruption system, will be the bomb in the industry.
