Sexual Anime Adventure Games
Why are these games so overwhelmingly positive and popular on Steam? Who the hell is playing these games? Basement dwelling neckbeards?

Ooh, that's quite an unempathetic and strawmanning like comment, OP.

Who the hell is playing them? The same as people who play RPGs, or beat em ups, or sports sims, or any other game - BECAUSE THEY WANT TO. It doesn't have to be a majority, nor a minority. It;s irrelevant.

There's no need to be prudish, or judgemental. It's perfectly normal to be interested in sex. I'm in my fifties, have been married 26 years, have two kids and two gradnkids, and I still find some of them funny and likeable, like GalGun.

Sorry to say this, but be a bit more empathetic - it takes all sorts to make a world and when you start appreciating others points of view, you enjoy the world better too.


First off. It was a rhetorical question. I have never met anyone who plays or would play a game like that. I don't know what someone would get out of a sexy cartoon video game. Is this mostly teenagers or old men like us? It just seems sad to me. You do you though. I don't care what anyone plays really. I am in my fifties also and have been married nearly 20 years. There are so many amazing games on steam to choose from. But a cartoon story board choose your own adventure with sex?

I know it was a rhetorical question. It doesn't change my answer though. That's the point.

The fact that you don't know what people get out of it only demonstrates that you don't know, nothing more. You cannot draw any further conclusion based on that, or it would be an argument from personal incredulity fallacy.

So, even if you are saying "hey, I don't know what people get out of it" you must be after some sort of response or you wouldn't have posted.

In which case, why do you think it has to be largely one group or another? Of course there will be ONE group that is the largest, sure, but I don't see what relevance it is though. The simplest answer is it's likely to be a whole spread of people - from young overly horny teens and twnty-somethings, to older gits like myself, pervs, normal married guys, lesbians, disabled people, lonely people, people with cats, and so on.

And I can say this with one simple word as evidence - FANTASY. The fact that sexual fantasy exists emonstrates why a whole range of people COULD like this.

Again, that's not even counting people like myself, who aren't doing it for tittilation (or at least not in the sexual sense) but just for the absurd laughs. I enjoy Resident Evil 6 for the same reason.

The reason why I po
sted this topic is because in my lifetime I have met around a hundred gamers and not a single one of them plays Hentai games. Thats why I asked who is playing them.

You’ve never heard the adage “sex sells?”

People who exist for you to feel better about yourself apparently. "At least I don't do that, unlike those basement neckbeards."

Ah, now we get to the meat of it. I'm sure (or at least hope) you're joking.

A fact I'm so careful to conceal and yet I fell into your trap. Just how could this happen? It's so formulaic and predictable... it's almost like I got to state something obvious and all you could do is copy and paste from the playbook for fragile egos. Almost....

One of the main problems with Hentai games on Steam is that a lot of them are actually blocked in Germany. The "Medienanstalt Schleswig-Holstein" has gone on a major banning spree for adult games on Steam in the last few months, so a lot of the better games cant be bought or even have the store page accessed from Germany.


So whats left is pretty much the censored games with external patches.
And dont get me wrong, i dont say that most or even any porn games reach the quality
of good non porn games. Thats indeed very rare. But there are still some decent RPG, Strategy and similar games in the Hentai genre that are worth playing.
As for recommendations ( of whats left in the German store), you could take a look
at "Eiyuu Senki - The World Conquest" and " Venus Blood -Frontier", both which are fairly fun strategy games. Both need external patches to restore the Hentai content in the Steam version though.

As for full uncensored titles on Steam, "Evenicle" (RPG) , "Meltys Quest" (RPG), or the "Funbag Fantasy (Visual Novel but well written)" series of games of JAST USA are pretty good but some of them are currently banned in Germany.


And above all else, you still need a certain affinity/tolerance for the typical anime artstyle/story tropes. Those are still present in these titles.

Lol. That sarcasm is right after my own heart. Love it.

My question is why do people care so much about those games, that have been here now for years, to even complain about them?
You're literally making cliche jokes about America and "Oh, no Boobs!" crazyness look downright normal.

Seriously. Just let people enjoy what they want. No one needs to care about this.

It always boggles my mind to see such prudish behaviour (assuming that is the case here). I grew up in the 1970s and even by then it was a long dead thing in general; sexual revolution and all that.

So to see this still being dragged out 50 years after that is just beyond my ken.

I was born in the 80s, but yeah. This is wild to have people be all up in arms about it now.

I mean don't get me wrong here, I pride myself on my empathy. I accept allsorts of views and opinions (as long as they don't confuse them with objectivity), bu this is just one that completely blows my mind how it's still a thing.

It's almost like the Temperance League needs reforming.

Any particular reason you just copy pasted a whole post of mine as your own?
