Miyamoto once again proving himself to be a hack fraud. Any real game designer would recognise that the objective is, indeed, to not cum, but the game challenges the player by attempting to make them cum. This is a simple example of risk and reward.

I’ve clicked on two of them out of curiosity. One led to a dodgy website that was hosting a bootleg version of the Tomb Raider reboot, the second one led to a pc port of a shitty mobile game.

Thanks for the report! I'd never click on those myself so I would never have known where they lead to.

Had to fix a laptop. My first solution when I see it's full of crapware is just format it. I ask them to backup all the shit they have, I tell them I don't want to find things if you ask me to do your backups.

This person tells me don't have anything embarrassing so I do some looking around finding docs and pics; then I open the browser and it was hijacked by some shit that had one of those ads. Big breasts futanari on futanari. You won't last 20 seconds! says the ad. Ok I'll bite. After about 2 minutes of clicking through ads, popups and whatnot I landed on the supposed game but it was just a 5 seconds video on loop and if wanted to do anything I had to provide credit card details but worry not! It's just for age verification! Nothing would be charged!

Owner of the laptop was next to me and was curious too. A 10 year older than me woman. We are friends, she's married and all. And she's still curious about that thing and says she has a card from a not used account and asks me if we could try. She puts money on the account and here we go.

Again, 2 minutes of following shady links until we get this 10 seconds gameplay where you could "touch" with the cursor some of the futanari body, after a few seconds, popup asks for credit card details just to verify age!

I told her that she'd probably have to explain to the bank that whatever comes in the future to that account it's from some shady virus on her computer which she agrees to do.

Anyway, completed all the steps they took $5 from the account; success! This lead to another 2 minutes of link jumping, every link had its form of porn but only as short videos implying "you are close to the game!" Half hour from the start passed and we end up on another age verification page...

This is where I said let's abandon this shit, and I completed the laptop fixing in about 20 minutes thinking well I did last about half hour until I gave up lol.

I tried again on another laptop to fix with the same result: they ask for credit card data. Not only my friend lost the $5 but they wanted to charge 5 more every week as a subscription from some company doesn't exists.

I have learned even more and come out wiser from your experience.

Also, I just realized a recognizable pattern from that compared to a family relative's experience in an investment scam. It began small; and the scammers gave some amount back as "returns," I see this as the initial lewd animations. A few back and forth cycles of slowly incrementing "investments" and proportionally increasing "returns" led to the big drop. And the sunk cost fallacy, and desire for more money plays into effect. At some point, the relative has put in a rather sizeable amount: about five month's worth of minimum wage.

The scammers stop giving back the "returns." And come up with a series of excuses, reasons and intimidating English terms where the relative has to pay some fee. Please note that English is not my relative's first language. These bogus payments were for various made-up things: a systems restoration fee, a processing fee, a bank release transaction, an account upgrade protocol, a client status elevation payment, a dormant account penalty, etc.

Anyway, lesson is to temper our desires. Scammers know how to monetize your dreams & fantasies. Pornography, financial gain, relational fulfillment... Be careful out there.. If someone's telling you to shell out some money for a promise of some gain, that's SUS. Take care.

A lot of the depravity is already being realized, the main problem is that under most circumstances you can't really get together enough funding and talent to piece together a good proper weird fetish game if it isn't almost entirely text-based.

You know, most of the time.

That's what I mean though. Once the "funding" is just a matter of having the right hardware (and that bar always eventually comes down to something the consumer can afford, though it sometimes can take a while) and the "talent" is just the AI model, the depravity we see now will seem like the age of enlightenment by comparison

people should know this shit was announced in march of 2019 for a release in 2021, then it got delayed to 2022 after the studio partnered with Nacon to co-publish, in may of 2022 they announced a september 2022 release date, 2 months later in july 2022 they delayed it again to may 2023 and now has released.

they had a year and half of extra development time and this shit looks like this and reportedly has lots of bug problems to boot.

nevermind the fact that they're releasing 4 DLC alongside the release of the game, 1 is an artbook thing, which is kinda understandable for a game to do, but the other 3 are things that should've been in the game itself, 1 is an emote pack that lets you say "My Precious" and do some emotes (singleplayer game btw), the other lets the elves actually speak elvish (like actual LOTR elvish replacing their regular dialogue) and then the last one unlocks a lore menu, which looks like shit and reads as if AI wrote it, and they're still charging you 50 dollars for the initial game, and now they're charging like 15 dollars for all these DLC

It's a relatively small developer that put out some excellent 2D games. But they were not prepared to take on a task as big as this and probably had no way to back out once they realized that they couldn't deliver.

They should have started off with some less ambitious 3D games before tackling such a major franchise with a 60 dollar price tag.

It's definitely a trend lately. A shitty, greedy, lazy trend.

When is Gollum not Gollum?

When he has his head between a Orcs legs, he’s a Goblin.

HOW are they charging full price for this?…I had a reminder set for this game & ignored it for the last year until this week. Idk why but it makes me think of the graphics for the Daxter (Jak) PSP spinoff….and yet these are still worse.
