    I’m going to out myself a little bit in praise of the horny games genre. I enjoy comedies, and I’ve had more laughs while playing these games than anything else I’ve watched or played in the last few years. So many horny games put you in a place to have good, light hearted fun. Being a DIK (included in the bundle) has so many great moments with Derek and Hell week especially. Being a DIK probably has the best soundtrack and needle drops in all of gaming. Hunie Pop’s dialogue is also incredibly funny. If any of this kindles your interest in the AVN genre, make sure you play Eternum.; it’s far and away the funniest game and some of the best times I’ve had by myself wearing my headphones and cackling like a madman.

    AVN devs are virtuosos of game design. They are pouring their souls into making these experiences no one will ever hear about because of their sexual content, and subsisting on mainly donations.

    Honestly I think this was cool af. I’m not gonna play any of those games, but we should stand by it for being a cool move.

      I’m glad they consider me a pervert slash freedom enthusiast, and not the other way around.

    This whole saga might just inadvertently make porno games explode (heh) in popularity. I’ve never played one myself, but if GOG is giving some away for free, I’m going to download a few and see what the hype is about.

      I’ve heard good things about Hunie Pop. So far it’s… uncomfortably sexist. But I guess what do you expect. I’ll give it a shot.

        It was published in 2015 and it feels like it was written in 2007, I find it mostly funny but I agree it’s not be the best ambassador for the genre.

      Well I hope you don’t bust while playing Postal 2. Not really any sexy stuff on there, but you can dump gas on people, burn them alive, and then piss on them.

      Also, cats can be used as suppressors.

        As I understand it, those were ones that were already free (to an extent, you could still pay if you wanted to before this).

          A lot were, but not all. I believe Itch made the decision to allow this type of content only if it’s free for now though, so a lot has gone totally free (with the option to donate).

          I’m not totally sure on any of this, because this content is not something I follow, but I think I heard this is the case somewhere here recently. I could be wrong.

      That’s a good timing. I’m looking at my calendar and I am due for my workout session anyway…

    I read up a little on what’s on offer and it seems that the Leap of Faith game is actually quality, story driven, and deals with heavy subjects like bipolar depression , body image problems and more.
