I've never quit a porn game in anger. What is there about a porn game for me to get angry about? If the writing is unpalatable, or the gameplay not engaging, I'll just mark it for unpacking (if it's an image-heavy game) and go on with life. I guess I don't really expect a sensible story in the first place. There's a good chance I wouldn't even notice a plot hole if one came up.
Then again, half of what I play is untranslated Japanese stuff. I understand just enough of the language to get the context and actually play the game (most of the time), and don't mind bumbling through the stuff I don't understand.
For a game that is in English, the only thing I can think of would be a game with content that seems like it'd be enjoyable and worth playing, but a UI that I can't stand. Closest I've come to that was No Haven, and even then it was more of a boredom quit. In the 90s I might've been willing to play a porn game that rendered like a teletype, but not these days. I boredom-quit that DICK game because the mechanics were too samey and the UI too clunky, and also because Unity doensn't cooperate with my laptop. I need to give Lilith's Throne another spin once I feel like doing THAT much reading because holy crap is it wordy. I quit Apocamorphosis (sp?) because there just wasn't that much content yet. No rage in any of those cases.
When questions like these come up, it's fun for me to try to guess what everyone thinks is important in their porn games. It's become pretty clear to me that there're some VERY divergent ideas out there about what should go into a good porn game completely aside from what kind of sex should be in it. But that's probably the case for porn in general.
