This game has the best adult animations I've seen anywhere. I don't know why they need to make it an RPG. Just make it a sandbox or simulator (I realize that's what it is in its current state). I'm sick of all these games trying to do more than they need to. If I want to play a good RPG I'm not going to search for adult projects on patreon. And they're almost never as good as a full fledged RPG. They always feel like half assed mechanics thrown in. It's really unnecessary.

This is not to slam Wild Life. Again these are the best animations I've seen. I'd rather them add to that and add more customization options. Maybe give the characters AI and lots more dialogue. But I don't see this becoming a full open world RPG. Not one I'd play at least.
Because porn with context is so much fucking better than simply just playing an animation after the other.

I'm not saying don't add any mechanics at all. A sandbox/simulation doesn't have to mean a lifeless world. But the amount of work that it takes to develop an open world RPG will definitely take attention and manpower away from the adult portions of the game. And even after all that work is put in will the RPG portion of the game measure up to the adult content? Most likely not.
But it's just my personal opinion. I hope I'm wrong because I really like this project.
Developing RPG mechanics will take time of course, but we can't treat it as taking manpower from adult portions as all parts should get needed attention. There are fairly good porn simulators already. Honey Select 2: Libido for example. But in my subjective opinion - it get's boring impresively fast. Turn on game - jump into - select situation - fap - turn off. If Wildlife purpose is only that - well fuck - that's dissapointing. RPG part doesn't have to be as impresive as AAA games. Just good enough for it to be engaging - and to insert story of some sort.


Any mechanics at all? Breeders Of The Nephelym, Hentai Roguelike, Monster Girl Island, Magical Investigation of Meridiana. I don't know of any full open world adult rpg. But I think it's aiming a little high to want all that and have all those elements be high quality.
Yes, all those examples are low quality games indeed, but even their porn simulator parts are low quality not only other game mechanics. As Wildlife dev was able to reach high quality for porn simulation part - with time they should be able to improve other mechanics, as well. As long as attention will be given to that part, too. They have funding, they have team.

I was very sceptic about Wildlife throughout all last year, but their last posts about story and QA session made me more positive about project. And it is dissapointing to see immediate critique that is mainly - dev should just make porn simulator.

Sadly thats the way it is. You cant make them all happy. If they keep making it just a sandbox porn viewer thing the RPG crowd will complain that its not a real game and they should add story and quests and gameplay. When the dev then works on those things the other people start to complain about the exact opposite. From the QA session it seems as if they are set on getting both aspects of the game developed so the sandbox and story mode will both have their place.

That is the only thing I hope for. Even if it will be slower updates - but for us to see improvements for both "sides" of the game with each update.

You all just ignore the fact that dev wanted to create porn rpg game. Not just rpg game. Not just porn simulator. There are a lot of rpg games and a lot of Japanese porn simulators. There is no porn RPG. This is what made project popular.
"Porn RPG" is a broad genre tho. You can absolutely make a pornbased RPG game. But what they seem to want to do, is focus on the RPG side of it, so that the porn element just becomes a gimmick they used to get funding.

As I said, people are going into this thing for the porn, in order for the product to do what it says on the tin, it can't then jam game mechanics in there that actively stop the player doing what they came here to do, so to speak. What you don't want is a player jacking off, who then has to stop because of combat or because of something else actively impairing them from enjoying the game and themselves.

It's like starting a porn film for there to be 20 mins of backstory and character development that you can't skip. Anyone would just turn it off. Because that's conflicting design.

Now, if they effectively add a "creative" mode, where you can do just that, then who gives a shit because you get the full propper game-game, for those who want to play a game. and you get the porn elements all in one easy to access and enjoy place. Win-win that way. Or a cheat mode of sorts, to just bypass the gameplay that would get in the way, so you can do the character stuff and the other elements that still fit a porn game.

Out of where you got an idea, that there will be no option just to "enjoy" porn simulator part. There will be story mode and sandbox mode (for patrons). Sanbox mode is exactly that. Did you read last posts of dev?

Edit
Visual novels got very popular in Japan not because it is collection of hentai pictures - but because they add's story to that. Some of visual novels has better stories that most movies. As Stupidkiller mentioned - porn with context is better. Even porn movies add some sort of context.

And who said that dev focus on RPG part more?

Should just focus this as a sex game, finish it, made it open for modders to support it ( so, free content generation basically) and actually sell it. Then use money made from that to put towards their dream RPG that they clearly really want to work on. Win-win then.
This, I just want them to add more poses (specially 2 girls+1 guy) and fix the bugs and performance issues. Modding and the ability to bring character models from SFM would be fucking awesome, also proper VR support

So ETA for next update?

3years later and still no story quests yet i mean c'mon
when they start there was 2 people working on this, last year they had like 16 people working on this, on patreon its says they have now 18 people and from this number 12 people is working fulltime, its indie studio size and they want to make this game kinda big, even studios like EA or Ubi with hundreds people need 3-5 years of development for a game and almost always they came out with technical issues and buggy bruh, so wild life need more time

people need to chill and lower they expectations on game progress

(Alt + 0) when your in game, but it doesn't work to well, you can't use any of the menus when in VR this includes the sex scenes menu.
There are keyboard shortcuts you can use to change the postions or switch to anal/vaginal. With the headset on, it might not be easy to hit the right key, but you can always change the keybinding to the numpad for example. At least i have an easier time to hit the right key there.

idk why people are upset, can't they read? The whole thing we've had up until now is still gonna be available in the full release content as a "Sandbox Mode" And that's what's being developed the most alongside the rest of the game. Literally no one should be having issues with this dedication to the RPG they've been aiming to make since literally the start.

Where's the animation spreadsheet? I see people mentioning it and someone said it's on the first page (main post, presumably), but there's none. Anyone help!
