Captain Hardcore

After getting used to some things, and a lot of getting frustrated, I can still say I don't recommend this yet. Very buggy and still lacking in features. Honestly, seeing that the devs are adding clothes often worries me, I would rather they focus on broadening the fetishes and making the studio more useable. This one is a "Wait a year and see if it's better" for me. I need help understanding how anything works. The gameplay in the core is like a 2 out of 5 at best, and the sex content seems VERY limited for something they're already charging $40 for. Here are my problems: -No advanced guide for the studio. All complaints I have may be solvable in-software but I can't find out how to do anything more advanced than "move pose ball here and hope the character doesn't contort themselves for no reason" and "set animation to make girl rub or blow a small dildo." EDIT: I had trouble finding how to hide the posing balls, they're called IK spheres. -Enlarging ANYTHING removes it's ability to go in any hole. EDIT: You can sort of circumvent this for pictures, but not for active play. You put whatever in, and then scale it up incrementally, inch by inch. This only sort of works and if you do it too fast it will clip out and you have to take it out, shrink it, and then start all over. (I will also mention that the beads will not fit in anyone at default size. -The ankles/wrist posing is atrocious, never following the direction of your controllers and instead just rolling wherever it feels like. The elbows and knees are not moveable by default and you have to enable a toggle for each individual model that puts a manipulation point like 2 feet away from the joint, often clipping through things and making it difficult to reach without moving the whole model away from props/walls to reach them. EDIT: Ankles are on a single axis, only moving in parallel with the shin. You physically cannot make the character do a proper Jack-O pose, for example, as the feet will not turn that direction and will have to clip through the ground. The entire arm structure is stiff, if I as a hunchback gamer can move my arms further back and over my head than the sexy fit ladies (and men) in this game, there's a problem. -Male models cannot have animated sex, their penises are too small to stay in during animations, slipping out and not going back in because they're as stiff as soggy bread. If you scale them up, refer to the second point I made. EDIT: This seems to vary from minute to minute but I don't know what the variables are yet. It's still a nightmare to try and make them insert to begin, let alone when you have to reset it every time it slips out. -Crashes often when spawning more than 2 people. EDIT: Crashes when deleting things, crashes when spawning things, crashes when etc etc. I really want to like this, it's visually excellent, and the physics are nice, but right now it's pretty messy rather than the brilliant sex posing software that people are heralding it as in other games' review sections. SIDE TANGENT ABOUT THE GAME PART OF THE GAME: Running through the core is a just a boring hassle as of right now. It's a visual snoozefest with simple enemies, and the only thing that stops you from clearing it with any speed is the fact that it's 5 floors of procedurally generated maps that are far too big. There is no map of the whole floor, and your minimap is just that- MINI. It shows you the room you are in and some of the adjacent rooms, but if you've got a bad sense of direction you have no landmarks to use to navigate so it all just blends together and makes you stay longer than is enjoyable. Speaking of making you stay, the only way to back out of the core is to end process on the game, there is no menu to open and you can't ALT-F4. (Thank you SuperF4 for saving me the CTRL-ALT-DELETE time.) So yeah, I'm gonna try for a little while longer to do the things I want to do with it, but in all likelihood I'm gonna bail and come back to it in a while.

Super difficult to understand how to interact with characters, and no manual that explains how the interaction works

No, it isn't at all worth it. There is a 5 minute gooner scene as soon as you start, then you are basically taken into a completely different game where you shoot robots and slug creatures for 5 levels. The girls are all like 4 ft tall and have no weight to them. They also all seem to have the same generic body type with different skins. The body shape kind of reminds me of a stock Skyrim female in need of a couple good NSFW mods or something. They stare at you with dead eyes and follow programed movement loops like animatronics while the game tells you to either enjoy the 12 second loop or join in. From what I can tell, joining in just means poking the females, who seem oblivious to the fact that you are there, with a gun that has an adult toy stuck on the end of it. It gets really old really fast. There is more that you can get it to do, but you need a degree in computer animation to figure it all out. The levels all feel exactly the same and the contrast between the gooner stuff and the shooter stuff is jarring. Some of your weapons are serious and some of them shoot explosive dongs. Some of the weapons don't even have an effect on the enemies because they are for the NSFW stuff not the combat stuff but they are still mixed in with the regular weapons and look like regular weapons. The are only 3 enemy types in the game and they seem strange from a thematic stand point. There are floating robots that say a few weird phrases and shoot at you, Larger robots that roll around and shoot at you, and random little slugs that throw themselves at you. I feel like it would make more sense if it were like sexy humanoid robots instead of boxy tank bots. The whole incomplete game can be beaten easily in under an hour and then you are supposed to just program your own animatronic loop shows. I feel like this is more of a demo than early access, but the developers need money now to keep production going which is why it is Early Access. I get it, but the price for what you get here should be more like $6.00-$10.00 and no where near $30-$40. $30-$40 gets you stuff like Subnautica 2, and Satisfactory, which are far more playable and fun Early Access games. There is a game called Virt-a-mate (VAM) on itchio that is kind of the BeamNG of of this genre and it still cant really be beat yet. I think with a lot of work and a lot of changes this game could be cool, but in it's current state it just not worth the money yet. I am refunding it but I will keep an eye on its development incase things change.

It needs a lot of work, to much physics, is game breaking, causing models to go crazy. i would rather work with no physics and have in game modes where you basically create your own physics. like breathing and walking. i think thats what there trying to do, to much physics is getting in the way. just have very basic physics and us pattern record for everthing else. graphics are nice, just keep everthing else simple. so for now including the price its a no, wait for a GOOD sell.

played with keyboard and mouse the experience is not good which is an extreme understatement the game is pretty much made for vr with an added keyboard and mouse option

there aint much to say. i had a cracked version of the game. i liked it so i bought it. its got potential but when you have more characters in a scene it causes lag. its not better than Virt-a-mate but unlike VAM you dont need a PHD in animation to make a scene and unlike other games this is actually very worth it

Refunded, because it Crashed every time I tried to start the game. (Meta quest 2 PCVR)

все круто но добавьте русский язык пожалуйста

Sandbox in VR is 10/10.

Good foundations but it's not good. Playing without a VR is so infuriating. For starters the game has little to no content, Combat is harder than it should be for a Pawn game and messing around with the scene editor is a literal nightmare. Plus its far too expensive for what's on offer 1 repetitive mission of copy pasted rooms with no health regen and if you die its back to the start of the room. Trying to line up models with the toys and stuff is like trying to perform surgery, you can never line it up and frankly it's just frustrating. Sorry it sounds harsh but I'd consider that the whole scene editor needs to be completely deleted and restarted. Or the devs need to be open and admit that the non VR version was simply for more sales as of right now it's a janky mess that barely playable. I was really looking forward to a game that reminded me of Villain Simulator before Valve revoked it without a genuine reason and this is sadly not it.
