A hardcore sex scene mod for Dragon Age Origins was made just two months after the game released. It got hundreds of thousands of downloads. Larian is just giving players what they want.

Yeah, but DA:O companions are hot. Well, Morrigan is hot. Leliana is okayish.

Larian companions are disgusting.

Eh? Bioware never gave us the option to bone Imoen.

Jaheira on the other hand, they torture-murdered her husband just to free her up for <CHARNAME>.

Some people (everyone) just enjoy games about killing mind flayers more than they enjoy games about having sex with vampire twinks.

Literally hundreds of people in different forums (including this one) who enjoy these scenes proves him wrong. Like the example given above shows.
And you're specially wrong about vampires, they're very popular with both males and females audience.

No but that has nothing to do with it. BG2 romances and Imoen coming back have to do with people making mods, fanfiction and such for BG1. BioWare didn't even like Imoen themselves. But she was a fan favorite. It was their fans who drove BioWare into their character driven soap opera paradigm.

Come on, it's no contest. The crusade against attractive female companions needs to stop.

meh. she looks fine. her hairstyle is ass though. if people can romance the weirdo alien looking elves from bg2 they can romance that character.

I think that was just because Khalid sucks. No one wants that musty old cooch anyway.

Eh, I'd rather do interspecies boogaloo with the githyanki, Captain Kirk style.

Why do fantasy RPGS sell better than porn games and dating sims?

As someone who actually did market research, I can tell you that porn games grossly outsell fantasy RPGs if on a 1:1 effort ratio.

Because most people are capable of going out and hooking up with real people of their preferred gender instead of getting all hot and bothered by someone's fucking drawings in a computer game.

do they

gave newell started burning cash onto a pentagon brain interface gaming project 5 days after steam started selling anime porn

sex is eternal

This is an interesting qualifier. What do you mean? That most porn games are no effort shovelware and therefore they outearn based on ROI?

Not really an applicable question, given that BG3 is both, and is one of the best selling CRPGs, even before being released...

obsidian: if you're really evil you can steal githyanki children in the epilogue

larian: you can make githyanki children

larian: you can make githyanki children

How does that work? Does she lay a pile of eggs and then you beat off on them, fish style?

you can make one billion dollar game that maybe sells to 10 million people

or you can make one sex game that costs whatever you pay an artist in a bulk deal and it has at least 77,777 guaranteed sales

this is basically why konami became a cassino company

The vast majority of porn games are low-effort cashgrabs. Which is why almost any porn game with quality will immediately be popular. This is a subject I'm rather... intimately familiar with.

Let's look at the dev work for two similar games:

Unnamed RPG

Typical content for a monthly update:

• 4-8 hours of quest content
• 4 new interactable NPCs
• 10 pages worth of branching dialogue
• New combat mechanics
• New items
• Quality of life updates and performance optimization
• Bug fixes

Profit: 5 sales from Steam, probably made $100 or something


Unnamed Porn Visual Novel made in ren'py or something

Typical content for a monthly update:

• Fucking absolutely nothing
• Gamedevs mostly spent their time arguing with "fans" on forums
• Gamedevs complain that work is too hard

Profit: $6k per month from Patreon

Why would you want either of those things. Kill the gith abominations with fire.

yeah, gacha games will get people to drop $1000 on a big-titted JPG and net over a billion dollars a year.

we should really be grateful there are people like Swen to bother with RPGs at all.

If there's too much content, then that means too much use of BOTH hands to play the game. That's a big nono for a porn game.
