>>58497352>normalfags already blacklisted youI don't care about normalfags - they aren't playing erotic pokemon fangames in the first place. But I think the majority of the audience for pokemon erotica wants characters with a nebulous age, or the classic "characters are 18" disclaimer and then drawing the girls with small tits so it's plausible. None of that works if the narrative specifically refers to Iris as a twelve year old girl. One doesn't have to be a normalfag to object to a game with blatant pedophilia in it. Or to put it another way, you don't have to be a full-blown pearl-clutching moral crusader to look at a game where a preteen is being sexualized and go, "Gross, I don't want to read that."
Looking at the bigger picture, if I release a game where a child is being fucked, it's likely to taint any past and future games I make because then I'll be "a guy who makes that pedo game." I also don't know if blatant pedophilia will even be allowed on
itch.io.
And here's the other thing. Believe it or not, I'm writing this stuff for the story. The people who read my past two games largely had positive things to say about them, but more than a few reviews basically boiled down to, "I came here expecting a bit of mindless smut to jerk off to and instead I got a novel in this visual novel." I kind of don't care about people like
>>58497546 who are only here to jerk off. There is an infinite fountain of pokemon porn on the internet and I can't compete with that, nor do I really want to try. I don't want to JUST write porn games. I want to write a visual novel, maybe with porn in it. Probably with porn in it! But the porn is an ingredient, not the entire main dish. Am I making any sense? It's late here.
Anyway nothing is set in stone this early and having everyone tell me "Nah dude, just make lewds" has been gradually sapping my energy anyway, so who knows how long this thing is going to take to write. I estimate the release will probably be autumn of next year.
