Whats appeal of this? I mean porns better for getting your rocks off, and games hardly likely to be groundbreaking.

Merida, again

It's just aggressive marketing and the hype train gearing up. I have seen commentaries about how this shit may revolutionize gaming or what not, but they are dumb. There are already countless porn games, not just the more popular hentai ones. Many seem to be hung up on the claim that the game won't have DLC or other paywalls, but many indie games already do that.

The amount of money people are willing to throw at animu shit is... sad. ;/
As if the amount of money people are ready to throw at plastic starwars,marvel,warhammer etc etc is less. Fuck some retards even buy that comic shit. The amount of sad old losers in the developed world is staggering.

*Acknowledges everyone's agenda*

Not my style, I could never think about sex and do something else at the same time. Good luck though, it is good to see babes return to RPGs. Hope it is a success and the youth enjoy.

Its big advantage is that player (and character) motivation is 100% clear.

The way I see it is that at worst we'll just get some wank material.
In the best case scenario we have wank material and a gameplay elements that hold on their own like in the case Rance games or Kamidori Alchemy Meister.

And they're already almost to the new stretch goal. This KS campaign has been crazy.

For my part, never having heard of FOW, their videos are way more porn-y than I was expecting. Still, if they can marry decent gameplay to smut, more power to them.

Indeed, $840,000 with 15 days to go.

Meanwhile Julian Gallop's Phoenix Point got $ 750,000 in 45 days

There is a Virgin Gallop vs Chad FOW in there

How do you know? We know next to nothing about the SHMUP or the tacticool combat section, not to mention the loot or level up systems. If you listen to that interview they say that the game will be casul. It might very well be on the level of a flash title. They'll probably release some more details and a gameplay trailer soon. I could be pleasantly surprised but I'm not holding my breath.

Update #13

Apr 15 2019

£650k!? WOW! Mangaka Madness is a GO!
Posted by Mr. Kristoff (Collaborator)


CONGRATULATIONS, PERVERTS! YOU JUST MADE HISTORY!

For the first time ever, a western video game studio will collaborate with the elite manga artists of the east to create totally original, totally filthy stories to supplement the canon of their video game universe.

It cannot be understated what a monumental moment this is not only for us as a studio, but for deviants world-wide. We're going to make some dreams come true with this stretch goal, and Studio FOW wishes to thank you all from the bottom of our black hearts for getting us this far.

In order to reward your immense generosity, we have two reveals for you...a new waifu AND the final stretch goal!

First off...meet Sova!

9cdea88f63ad263a696de0168cdb34df_original.png

Basically Thor if he were 1/3rd the size, female and a raging alcoholic, this black sheep of the teelee royal family is a pint-sized princess that spends her days competing in the deathmatch arena in hopes of becoming the grand champion. Though she is stacked shorter than her competition, Sova's unbelievable strength and decades of experience in combat makes her a fierce opponent.

You can all look forward to meeting her very soon!

And now, the FINAL stretch goal of the Subverse campaign: THE WAR CHEST!!!

Though we have all kinds of grand ideas for amazing content outside the original scope of the game, Studio FOW is still a small team in charge of an ambitious project. We are absolutely committed to making sure we deliver Subverse in all its intended glory on time and with the level of quality our fans have come to expect from us.

Our final stretch goal will help us bring you the best game possible by putting every last dollar pledged from this point forward towards polishing it. We will use the additional funds to hire more programmers, more animators and giving every last little piece of the game that extra coat of wax that will really help it shine.

Also - even though this is the final goal, we'll still be posting regular updates with more information about the game. Thank you all again so much for your support! We couldn't possibly be happier with how things have turned out.

If you back through the KS campaign page, 10 pounds gets you the Steam copy that should be out in EAccess in a couple of months, with all future updates to the full game, of course, and all campaign stretch goals.

He's asking whether he'll get a copy if donates through DU's fund raising. And I'm guessing no.

Just did a quick search and find out that not only you can't choose your protagonist's gender, you can't even create you own character and have to wear a mask all time.

What a fucking waste.

I also think that people that expect some Inclined gameplay from this will be unpleasantly surprised. Gameplay will just be there so you have to spend some time in the game before you unlock your waifu and get to see anime sex scenes.

Waifus are the main draw here, don't expect much more than that.
