Adult Games are Deeper Than We Think
*Important correction* only Rance Quest Magnum is like Final Fantasy - the rest of the series plays differently :) thanks to commenters pointing this out!
Spicy Games have become increasingly popular in recent years but many people (including myself) have always chalked them up as shallow and poor quality.
But after actually playing a few great ones, and doing my own research into the community - I started to see that there’s more to these games than what we think. And I’m here to share these thoughts with you.
Massive thanks to Tom from @adultgamereviews for his insight and to his community for making me feel welcomed into this world.

Why We Need More Games Like Animal Well
game on thumbnail?
I've always liked VNs, i used to play a lot of horror ones, but for these types of games, the way i see it, if the game manages to grab you for any other reason besides the obvious genre, you might have a gem in your hands. Ngl i used to consume more years ago, but after going through so much trash i ended up "filtering" these games so i go back to them just when i hear about one that catches my interest. And for me there's two games that actually managed to become favorites of mine just for the writing alone. Imo they had a writing so good, that the actual "content" mostly becomes secondary, and you just want to skip it and continue with the story.
ETERNUM IN THE THUMBNAIL, LET'S GOOOOOOO
Hush Hush mentioned, based video.
Eternum mentioned!?
An adult game I can't recomend enough is superhuman by weirdworld, not only the plot is great but also the fight scenes, thats right the fights! also there are a lot of hilarious and weird H scenes.
I was pretty shocked to see White Album 2 show up, haha. Like yeah, of course the game has sauce, but to the point of this video, its also one of the most heart-wrenching stories I've ever read, and I remember it for that. I honestly forget about the erotic elements, compared to how hard the emotional scenes hit.
The games made by Illusion (koikatsu is the most well known title) have the best character editors I've seen in gaming, not even exaggerating
monster girl quest was probably the craziest eroge in terms of narrative imo
I made almost-annual purchases from 15-24. So far, 15 and 18 are the best careers + VC build-rate. 24 is my last one until a competitor comes around (or until 2K wises up)
i remember 2k back in the day man where it was just fun balanced and the park wasnt over saturated you could actually have a good time as a brown shirt and actually perform well if your stats were good against good comp
needs Ubisoft/EA Games/Behaviour Interactive/Crystal Dynamics and all developer company hahahaha
soulless and inconsiderate too. Permanently banned my account days after I recovered my Steam account from hackers.
As a 96 baby wtf has happend to gaming …
One of the biggest pet peeves I have with adult games is that most of them are not even games, they're interactive p*rn movies which only have a very narrow story to lead you from one sex scene to another. And the sex scenes are almost exclusively done in straight male POV with conventionally attractive, model-shaped women. There's hardly any diversity there. I'm not saying that that's bad, but it's not something I'm particularly into because it becomes very boring very quickly. The very few that are games worth playing on their own still have the problem of not having a lot of diversity in the sex scenes. But since they're good games in their own right, it's not a big deal if you skip them.
its so funny cause when i started getting into the v novel genre i was just shy before 18 and some of ones i played. really do have a good story behind them.. even with the adult scenes few i can think off head.. probably my first and well known in opinion is princess evanguile and fruits of grisiaia those were the first couple that got me into it then for shits and giggles got into hyperdimenson neptunia for the comedy value nevertheless was a good series as well. personally everything comes down to perspective.. especally when i did fate stay night couple months back too..
You play for the "Adult" aspect, but stayed for the PLOT.
As someone from Germany: Arrr, it's time to set the sails.
This video in a nutshell: Came to jerk off but stayed for the plot.
Gonna finish this later, but I recommend everyone play a series called SEQUEL.
the issue of funding for adult games has always seemed like the biggest issue for me. Patreon makes sense to me when the person being paid is putting out stuff monthly (i.e. I back a RUclips channel, and so every month my payment is funding all the videos they put out that month). but when it is monthly payments going towards funding one big project like a single game, the developer is now incentivized to take longer to complete it because every extra month of development brings in more money. I wish adult games used a Kickstarter-like model instead
One game changed my outlook on a couple things for the worse. And by a lot. I know that there have been other people who have had a similar experience but the community dismisses them as "haters" rather than a criticism on the entire structure that they've built. This is has definitely scarred my introduction into this genre and marred its image in my mind, probably for a long time if not forever
on the way to 69k view lets goooo
respect for being so open minded. i have collected such games too for years. i also collect normal games, i have like maybe 200 adult gam es on steam and 5500 normal games on steam :)..
What game is the thumbnail from
2k12 was the best in my eyes because you could play myplayer without spending money after spending money on the game.
I recommend Caribdis' other game Once in a Lifetime, and Story Anon's Out of Touch. I would love to hear your opinion on them.
i play in Australia on ps, think I'm the only one lol, haven't ever found a match in my region i can only play on north america west
All bout HuniePop and Hooked on you (dead by daylight dating sim)
I honestly never understood the stigma that adult games receive. Most of the themes that are explored in these games are also readily available in most movies and television shows. The only difference is that the adult games actually explore these themes much better than the movies and television shows. Personal opinion, the visual novel series Kara no Shoujo(with minor changes) would make an incredible movie franchise
lonely men epidemic strengthens Yayyyyyy
i personally don't like these types of games because there is too much distraction and most of them cost too much but i saw a few interesting games with the "succubus" "theme" that had a very interesting story. its hard to find good stuff that does that "theme" justice even in forms of media that are easier to make like comics or even pure text stories. i tried to make them myself but i put them on the wrong website and got banned. i think a 3d sandbox game like game for adults could be awesome too but i haven't seen anything like that .also a lot of games go for this 16 bit look and no offense i love retro games but i am not sure what they were thinking with that in this case graphics do matter .but the story is usually the best part of these types of games anyway.
no mango parties smh, Smash Girls is literally peak, haven't have a story that hit so hard in a game for a long while
"filled with themes and preferences that will likely turn off a lot of people" Nah man Euphoria is for everyone! Share it will all your friends and family!
Artemis has some deep awesome story,its a big slow at times,but christ is it good and actually funny
To add to this "came for the ..., stayed for the plot" thing: Some of the sweetest, most touching stories I've read come from adult manhwas. I'm starting to suspect the 'adult' aspect is just a front for some of these artists/developers, and that they're not just capitalizing on coomer money, but also genuinely trying to create something they can be proud of.
The issue is for every sengoku rance type game where come to ya know stay for the deep world and systems theres 1000 seggs with adolf type games
I will never understand how themes such as murder, violence, crime, war crimes, torture etc. are considered generally accepted in games, but as soon as you touch sex (whether "vanilla" or something more controversial like rape or incest) it's suddenly a step too far. If I fantasize about killing harmless civilians by driving them over in a stolen car in GTA it's all normal, but if I fantasize about having sex with a cute maid then I'm a dangerous degenerate. Somehow. Probably a remnant of Puritan culture that the Anglsophere just can't get rid of? While it's true that 90% of these games are shit, I always like to point out how games like Katawa Shoujo (heart-warming visual novel about girls with various kinds of disabilities) and Saya no Uta (psychological horror visual novel with heavy lovecraftian influences) let you disable the adult content and the game works perfectly well without them.
Shout out to BEING A DIK. Yes, it's an adult game, yes it has a lot of sex scenes, but man, the story is amazing. It perfectly encapsulates the 80-90s film era of college sex comedies better than the movies themselves. You thought Animal House was a funny, well made movie? BEING A DIK is funnier and you actually get insanely invested in the characters.
How do I explain to bro that the hentai tentacle apocalipse game is actually an award winning critic to society and modern warfare
Much like a cell phone, I don’t think you should buy the game every year. I’ll pick it back up in 26.
Good video, but 12:03 what the double fuck, japs are so perverted
I recommend black souls,it has crazy good lore
10:03 *Cough Subverse
It's funny when adult games end up being good games because of their gameplay or story more than the adulty-ness of them. Two examples off the top of my head: HuniePop and Ripples. HuniePop's gameplay is actually innovative and fun, considering that at its core it's just a match-3 game. And Ripples has _such_ great character development and story. I can't wait to see more of that one.
Clicked for the curiosity itch, but then... I stayed for a video essay probably no one would take seriously but you genuinely made interesting, which totally captured my intrigue through your video champ.
No one: That one sfx: G A Y 🤣
Um... No, you won't have to put in more effort. "Problematic" games can always just be bought at Jast USA or MangaGamer which are both having Halloween sales. In fact, Eden's Ritter just dropped there for $5.00 and that's a very problematic game. Look, fans of this material exist.
The fact that women can choke microphones on twitch but a game like "Hunie Pop" is banned is legit insane
Correction: The Rance Series. Rance Quest is only the name of Rance 8: Magnum Quest. The rest of the info seems right. And also, you need to mention that every Rance game has it's own gameplay style. They don't all play like Final Fantasy.
RUclips also puts heavy barriers over channels that try to "focus" on these kinds of games
