Indeed, it's kinda odd that SG is so much more popular than WiAB (especially in Discord).

I have no clue what happened about the chapter count. I'm just guessing Ocean is taking a different approach to the story. :unsure:
Just a guess but it could be the NTR. That alone will alienate a huge amount of potential audience since it's pretty much a small minority of guys that like that kinda stuff.

A bit odd though. As far as I can see in the remake, NTR seems to be one small part of a pretty diverse game. And it's even optional. How does that make WIAB less popular than SG? Was NTR a major cornerstone in the original WIAB? I seriously need to pick up SG to figure out what the hype is all about.

It's not sad at all about this music "problem". It's actually very funny. It blows my mind how much money he spends on this music when actually it's free. OR, just like he said, use copyright-free "crap" music. WHO CARES in the end?
Ocean is not a musician, we are not musicians and the game is not about music at all.
He should use this money to buy more VRAM or whatever is important to render faster.
Exactly, someone needs to tell him that if he spend the music money on hardware that will help him put updates out faster, he will get more people to buy/subscribe and more profits, instead of 2 updates per year for each game, he could do 1 every 2 months or so with good hardware bought using the music's budget. and when his games are established, he can license music however he wants. Such a waste of time and money now licensing music.
The concept is correct. It's definitely easier to get more patrons by taking the money from the music and spending it on rendering equipment to make the renders faster and provide quicker updates, and it will give Ocean more money to buy music. Obviously Ocean got the order of spending money wrong, but I've been used to him doing that for a long time ;) :LOL:

I don't know, but when the development speed of the two games is much different, it is obvious that the faster development speed of the game must be more popular

I think it's simply that people see the NTR tag and instantly ignore the game. I do that with sandbox games :KEK:

Ntr was more prevalent in the earlier version but, even if it is a small part, some people won't even care to find out. As long as the tag is there they'll just bounce and look for something else. There's too many games nowadays, with so many options people can afford to just skip some games that have those tags you don't like.

The issue isn't just the tag for me but after a few years here you do notice that certain kinks will drive the story in a certain way, even if optional it effects how the other kinks play out narratively.

The tone of a interaction can seem off as regardless of player input the connections sometimes hold elements of the other kink that can be a complete turnoff. I just ran into this with the title "The Misfits", no matter how much you don't play the NTR route it is just shoved in there regardless. Immediate uninstall and blacklist, no sale.

Unless the Developer does some serious re-writing they should pick a kink and stick to it, to many cooks spoil the broth as it were.

I dont think that this is the case their are so many games that are full corruption or ntr with big patreons and even lot of pornos like gangbang ,bukkake and all that kinky stuff its probably a mix of alot of things but I dont think that ntr = bad or ntr = not over 100 patreons rule exist

and you can make even the argument that the competition is bigger between women pokemon/collecting games because they exist the most.

They tend to be different audiences. I like BAD and hate Fetish Locater.... both in the same genre but different kinks. Really it can be done with good writing but most seem to badly band aid the issues imo.

No one said ntr = bad. But it is a fact that it is a very divisive and niche tag so much that it needs to be made OPTIONAL if you even want a chance for your game to succeed. So good games with ntr will get good support like WIAB which has 458 patreons, which is pretty good. But compare it with SG, by the same dev, and it has 1400 which is 3 times more.
The same happens with another dev: Inceton. He has a ntr patreon page "IncetonNtr" which has 379 patreons. Whereas his "Non ntr" patreon page "IncetonGames" has 2362 patreons which is 6 times more (and it used to have more than 4000 patreons before he added some small NTR to his supposedly "non ntr game", dude just loves ntr lol).
So there you can clearly see two devs that offer two options: one ntr and one "non ntr" option. They are the same person so the render quality, animations, writing, etc are all the same, yet the results are very far apart.
Then you see that the devs making the most cash, like BaDIK or NLT, tend to avoid those divise tags to try to reach a larger audience. But, you can still make good money with ntr/optional ntr games, just not as much.
and you can make even the argument that the competition is bigger between women pokemon/collecting games because they exist the most.
Yes, ntr games are a minority so supposedly they should be earning more, because they have less competition. But that doesn't really happen.

this is not even true lol there are ntr games and mangas that make a lot of money even huge porno sites with all their gangbang and bbc bukkake, bbc cheating .... and all that things its not niche at all

it all comes down to luck and writting so maybe if the story is good and ocean get lucky on steam wiab will get bigger if the story and cheracters will be interesting

Porno studios making irl porn are totallly different than AVN. No point in bringing them up here. People just watch it to jack off and nothing else, thats why the focus is in the perverted actions. Theres no story, no characters, nothing, just the action.
You can only compare it to devs like Jackerman which does short 3D animations with no story, just straight to sex.

A game without ntr will make a lot more than a ntr one with the same level of renders/writing/animation, etc. Thats what the two examples I brought up show. If you dont want to believe it then thats ok, but thats the way it is. Thats why you see devs fight tooth and nails when their games get tagged with ntr.
I remember the dev of Seducing the devil crying about getting the tag, and he still claims his game doesnt have ntr even though it has the tag. The same happened with Sunshine Love which recently got the tag and you got a MrDott's helper crying in the thread saying how it was unfair and it isnt really ntr and shit. Many other cases where devs "accidentally" added a scene which got them the tag, and went back and changed it just to get rid of it.
You dont do all that if the tag isnt bad for business.

its not your point was that ntr is always less sucessfull because people complelty avoid it and dosent have much fans (maybe because people compare their seiz too other people or are insecure or whatever reason) but than this would also happen in porn that people would avoid it also for the same reasons.

A game without ntr will make a lot more than a ntr one with the same level of renders/writing/animation, etc.
no this is just your claim with solo examples
People just watch it to jack off and nothing else, thats why the focus is in the perverted actions and nothing else.
if a big majority of people feel insecure in a VN over pixels they would also feel insecure about pixels in porn and the big budget high qualtie stuff also has a little bit of story stuff IF WE TALK ABOUT BIG BUDGET super high qualitie cameras
You dont do all that if the tag isnt bad for business.
again you have solo examples I could do the same know and mention all sucessfull mangas with ntr tag and pornos and Visual novels that have ntr tag and are doing very creat but I will not do it because this examples with good and bad are on both sides and than we can talk back and forth forever

to be clear I think both of ocean games have good cheracters, story, writting but I just think SG got more lucky and was more conistent from the start WIAB lost a lot of momentum with the rework but we will see how good the story will be in the future but I think that there is a high liklyhood that it will be the more itneresting story because ocean has more playground and writting possiblities with WIAB compared to SG so we will see but WIAB has definetly a higher possiblitie to be more interesting and have a way higher tension curve if done right

in SG he will get problems even if a men breath in the same direction as one of the love interest which will make the story possibilities way less itneresting and it will be super difficult story wise so WIAB definitly has a HUGE advantage

Why would people avoid gangbang or bbc stuff. You are not making any sense. Those kinks are not disliked by anyone. If you want to make a valid comparison then talk about the extreme cuck porn where the cuck eats the cum of the bull out of her wifes pussy. That is the porn that most might want to avoid, or maybe some scat or pegging. Gangbang,bbc, bukkake thats not "extreme" porn or niche, thats everyday stuff. You are comparing apples and oranges

no this is just your claim with solo examples
No, thats my claim with two examples of devs offering both options having two different outcomes. You can look for even more examples. Like the dev for Golden Boy that has recently removed all ntr from his game in order to try and gain more support. But no matter how many examples I brought up you will keep in denial so, it is pointless.

if a big majority of people feel insecure in a VN over pixels they would also feel insecure about pixels in porn and the big budget high qualtie stuff also has a little bit of story stuff IF WE TALK ABOUT BUG BUDGET
No, dude. Do I really have to explain the difference between an avn and real porn?
Even if you say theres insecure people, they only get insecure because they self insert in the MC. And take decisions and affect the story. That only happens in avn. High quality and BIG BUDGET porn do not have a story lol. The usual: "Help step-bro, I got stuck in the washing machine" does not qualify as story lmaoo. Or making a parody porn about the pirates of the caribbean does not qualify as a story lmaoo, why are we even discussing this??

again you have solo examples I could do the same know and mention all sucessfull mangas with ntr tag and pornos and Visual novels that have ntr tag and are doing very creat but I will not do it because this examples with good and bad are on both sides.
I didnt say ntr games couldnt do well, I said they could. But never as good as non ntr games.
Anyway, too much spam. So I'll stop here.

But please dont bring up irl porn stuff, thats so stupid, I cant believe I am having that conversation.
this are not even good written or super complex games and you proof my point with this that it has more to do with luck and be at the right time at the right place and a little bit of skill.

and its not really fair there are like 3 or 5 creators that have that numbers (so statisticly if most games are women collecting games they have a higher chance to be on top because there are like millions of this games) and keep in mind this games came first and fastly build a loyal fanbase (with little competition at that time) I can garantee you if any of this games would have OPTIONAL ntr at the start they would still make the same amount of money maybe there would be 100-400 patreons less but with that numbers definitly nothing HUGE

taffy tales (uberPie), our red string (eva kiss), a promise best left unkept (hangovercat),seeds of chaos (venus noire) and plety more same for pornos and mangas

They are good by porn game standards, both in visuals and story. But there are ntr games with similar quality or even much better renders that dont make even half . And thats no luck, thats always the losers excuse.

Yes, those games you mentioned are doing good, thats what I said, the ntr games can do good but not top money.
and its not really fair there are like 3 or 5 creators that have that numbers (so statisticly if most games are women collecting women games they have a higher chance to be on top because there are like millions of this games) and keep in mind this games came first and fastly build a loyal fanbase (with little competition at that time) I I can garantee you if any of this games would have OPTIONAL ntr at the start they would still make the same amount of money maybe there would be 100 patreon but definitly nothing HUGE
Statistically if there are less ntr games then they should be doing much better economically than non ntr games. Because the target audience of non ntr games would be scattered around many different non ntr games. Thats how supply and demand works. And that shows that the non ntr audience is so huge that it can sustain the vast majority of games and even the top earning ones. In contrast the ntr audience struggles even with their limited options and have to be helped by those who dont care about ntr as long as it is avoidable.
I can garantee you that if any of those games I mentioned ever add ntr they'll lose a huge chunk of suscribers, but they wont add it, because know better. Lets just stop here too much spam and we'll never agree anyway. And stop talking about irl porn when discussing games, it is annoying, like some dude bringing up soccer when discussing basketball. Makes no sense. Bye

dude what do you consider top notch money most of this games I mentiont make over 10.000 dollars a month(thisa re like top 1% of creators) do you have any idea how much that is for a niche thing like EROTIC VISUAL NOVELS there are like 3 or 5 guys that make your 50 k number a month because they build a LOYAL FANBASE at the start of this site THEY GOT LUCKY most people are not insecure or write in this forum at all they dont care what they jerk of too they were the first there are plenty of guys that have good renders and are the same like the games you mentioned harem with better renders that make maybe 1000 bucks a month

why do you think companys try to make mass effect 69 and assasins creed 20 and not new ips?? becasue they build a loyal fanbase and its risky to start new ip even with most skilled devs in the world and endless money in the world

most people dont care about optional ntr they just like the cheracters and build a connection with the community and cheracters they would still simp over there bad dig cheracters even with optional ntro_Oo_O
