Video game about goo/TF kink
@sharkNserg I took a look at it the other day, but the synopsis reads like there's too much separating me from the character, which would probably result in a much less entertaining or sympathetic experience as other folks on here seem to have :\ so idk

@sharkNserg That's honestly part of the problem. The character is effectively a blank slate to project onto, but he's (initially?) male and the potential for intimate cutscenes referencing that heavily would probably cause my dysphoria to spike hard

@elfi oh, I see how that could be a problem! Though, if it makes any difference, his shorts never come off and none of the TFs really reference anything going on under them
every TF actually looks pretty androgynous to me and they're all physically null; I think it would have turned me off if it was more overtly pornographic, actually

@sharkNserg Well, that does inform my opinion a little more, though I still feel like I wouldn't be able to connect with a male character at all if I'm supposed to be projecting onto him in any way

@elfi very fair! a gender select option would have been nice...

@sharkNserg Yeah, and I can't imagine you'd want to see me just breaking the game down to its mechanical elements and playing towards whatever end goal appears ideal in that sense, so I think I should pass on this one

@elfi oh yeah mechanically the game is... well the only mechanic is "run away from things that instantly game over you if they touch you", that's it

@sharkNserg You should've seen me when someone told me to play Kurovadis (which has strong non-con elements, I must warn) >_>; There's a key on it that knocks the character down automatically (which leads to rather mature scenes in contact with an enemy) and the only time I ever used it was to gain iframes to cheese a room full of spikes

@elfi pffft
sometimes you gotta abuse the jank to proceed in not very good games

@sharkNserg I mean it was a reasonably solid metroidvania, I just had absolutely 0 emotional connection to it so it was all mechanical to me
re: Video game about goo/TF kink, gender issues
@elfi @sharkNserg i'm kinda the opposite since like "started off as a guy" is kinda how i like tf stuff to be personally but i totally get how that can be an issue
