Re: [Team Krama][FPS] Rape of the Dead
.....
If you lurk some of the H game threads around here more you'll see some people that mention they love gameplay to the point where the H content becomes minuscule to the enjoyment. Just because it's an H game doesn't mean they have to subtract the gameplay so it's just fap material like you said. As long as you keep in mind that they're still trying to make a game, so they have to keep it within the understanding that it's a video game, and they may have been inspired by games like doom or L4D to make something similar, but with hentai. Also, I've seen some crazy stuff with game engines, I highly doubt that's a factor in deciding features and gameplay mechanics. I've seen RPG maker games turn platformer and shmup, unity game turn into bejeweled, Python turned into a 3D experience. In the right hands, you can do a lot of things. There are few exceptions, and I'm sure in that instance a developer would have to move to another game engine that would support their ideas, like what the Hound of Blades developer did. Nothing is impossible if you put in enough hard work, it's just hard, especially to the inexperienced and unimaginative.
Let's see how things turn out.
You caught me in a edit, so quotes don't match up, but that's fine.
For GOR, if you want to say ingame content that still only occurs at the end of game isn't like standard GOR, we agree to disagree. For me the Game Over part is the key, not whether it's ingame engine or cutscene/CG
For the H content (what I was editing). "There have been people that said they find gameplay so much fun they don't even care about it's H content".
Yeah but "so good I don't need the H content" doesn't mean it's not wanted.
So that whole, "devs might want it a good game", as a reason NOT to have H ingame didn't make any sense to me.
as is "It's arguably a 'to each their own' kind of setting, to where gaming enthusiast are forced to decide if they want to play a game for it's merits over it's H content."
Why either or? That's what I've never heard of. Is it a badly worded form of 'so good it doesn't need it', but again they're not stopping from playing it because it's H, right?
I know I'm only speaking from my perspective and others I know, but game and H content are judged combined. A game that maybe isn't good enough to normally play, might be with good H content. And the other way, a game with poor H might be good enough to play if the gameplay is great. Why would I be chosing based on only one or the other??
So I don't see how any of that comes up to why or why not you'd have H content ingame.
For the RPG maker, SOME can change it, the pros. If you read the forums, more can be done now than before as there are fan made plugins you can use to expand on it, but that's more recent. Remember the whole point of RPG maker is you're buying a system so you can make a game without making a game engine. You seen how many RPG made games out there. You think all of them could hack the engine? Hence for the most part people were limited to it. Similar to Skyrim. Many modders, most using tools created by the very few and had to wait for them. And moving engines takes money and time (relearning). But whatever, it's opinions.
"It doesn't have to be integrated into the gameplay mechanics, but it would certainly make the game more enjoyable for fappers like us who already went through the muck of standard CG grind games."
Yeah, I never meant it as a 'has to', we were talking about general design and what to do with rapes, captures etc. If it came across that way, not intented, just went into detail as this stuff interests me.
So none of this is a critique of the dev as we're leaving out the whole issue of dev resources. And certainly not trying to mind read him on his intent for the game, whether it be a great zombie shooter with H, or a H game with zombies.
Wasn't even thinking on that, but more on what you stated... being intergrated would put it apart from so many other CG grind games, as they have the engine to do it. That was the general jist.
Lets hope it works out for them.
