    I think its definitely important to have some sort of deadline. Even if its not the complete release of the game. Like geting out alpha or beta for testing. I need to be better about that myself but because we arent major game developers with huge teams, its really important to get actual feedback on the game.

    If anyone really wants that extra immersion in their games I am confident that Entirety of NSFW games can be experienced through Skyrim mods and it would still be a better experience and with actual development behind it if you look at mods like amorous adventures it's fully voiced, adds Quests that explore NPCs background (It doesn't have the NSFW stuff by default but I heard it can be made compatible with OStim). Where as actual NSFW games are what? Slideshows of p0rn0graphic images? They have no meaning.

    Imo a game should be an actual game, like it should fit into a genera and I don't think "NSFW" is a genre, just like how "Japanese games" aren't really a genera. NSFW games suck because its just porn, they don't tell stories or do anything that a game does. Also nice podcast, helped for background noise for my work.

    Most NSFW games do suck but there are a few that are actually good. A prime example is the Visual Novel space which actually has some wonderful stories and even gameplay that goes past "choose your own adventure". Sadly other generes which incorporate nsfw aren't so lucky outside of maybe some 2d rpgs that play similar to Earthbound or Coffin of Andrew and Leyley.

    @@Angel___________________ Thats true. VN and more fleshed out games in that genera that mimic romance novels have a space in that they allow for more choice and ease of visualization that books and film do not.

    NSFW games are games. They do tell stories and do what a game does. But as you said, they're just porn, in game form. Most NSFW games that appear in stores are: 1) RPG Maker games with barebones development, made just to attract desperate people (sadly, some sell well) 2) 3D Games that have pedo content, weird fetishes, sex (although they hide some of them from the storefront for obvious reasons) 3) Typical Nukige 4) Light NSFW game that get bundled with actual NSFW games. Some of them include visual novels like Muv-Luv. My take is that only Light NSFW games are NOT porn and should have their own tag instead of bundling them with NSFW. At least for me. But honestly, sexual intercourses and the likes aren't a taboo subject in today's societies. Anyone can use them in their storytelling as a way to represent love, affection etc. However, I believe those who happily use them to profit and to ruin someone's mind for the sake of self-pleasure should burn, and I stand by this :)

    I don't believe that NSFW games should be made at all. This type of content is poisoning the mind and souls of the individual who consumes that content and its creator.

    That is very loon take on these kind of games. You must be a religious fanatic to think that. While there can be discussion regarding porn itself and games, there is nothing I would call poisoning of "mind and soul". Biggest problem is we often put games with slight amount of NSFW into NSFW tag, where in fact they are a lot more but their reach is limited if they dont have enough support behind them to not get censored or limited in their audience reach. Either you land in normal category or where all the only sex games(poorly made) category

    The reason women are getting attacked in society is that women are portrayed as objects not people. These games teach young men to be predatory towards women. These are mothers, sisters and daughters.
