the most basic shit you may find in any "crappy hentai game" can be considered premium content This tells you two important things about studiofow's vision of game content : On the steam page there is a line from the team describing what they consider "PREMIUM" sex scenes. Subverse has the same issues as many other games that never actually bothered thinking about how to implement their main selling point. I'd say it's worth to play it, even if you don't like it a lot, just to see where more or less the limits of the genre technically are currently sitting, because this game shares that throne with few others. So, it ends up being an unconfortable balance between fun but shallow gameplay, non-sensical story and great visuals. So, as far as the technical aspect goes, Studio FOW has done an amazing job with the game. Sound is also on a very high level for the genre, with voice acting for the girls, sound effects that do their job and a soundtrack that works very well and has quite some interesting tracks in it. Graphically the game is gorgeous as this genre goes, with lots of animations (not only for sex), great character models (even though it has too many non-humans in it) and lots of graphical little details you don't usually find in erotic games. So, all in all it is a fun game to play, as long as you can manage to ignore the story. Gameplay wise it has two sides to it: a twin stick shooter space battler which is quite quick and fun and a turn-based combat which is a bit less fun but does it thing as long as you're not expecting a deep strategy game like XCOM. If we add that the overall tone of the game is a wanna-be Deadpool but not as well written, the whole story falls apart and becomes uninteresting quickly. But sexually the story is horrible: all girls are full on "dumb sluts" and there is not much real work in giving them any real personality or any build up to the scenes with them. The story is not bad in the non-sexual side of it, a bit cliche as of a war against a bad empire and rebellion and all that. Subverse is a good game but with lights and shadows. I play every new update, and each time I am disappointed in the lack of anything that feels fresh or engaging. I keep expecting more of this game than I should, because it looks like something that should be excellent, even if it falls far short of that mark in nearly aspect. If you can plod through the game's "story" you might find yourself enjoying the H scenes, but those will grow stale quickly. You will find yourself rolling your eyes frequently, unless you happen to be in the same mindset as the devs, which would require you to either not be old enough to play an adult game, or have suffered a debilitating head injury at some point. The humor slips past childish into outright stupid over and over again. The devs mock everything that wanders into their adolescent minds with equal fervor. It is some of the worst, most puerile, edgelord crap imaginable. The "pooter points" (ugh) system for the gallery is poorly implemented, making many of the scenes in the gallery inaccessible unless you've planned well in advance how to best take advantage of the system. The only choices to be made in this game are which planet's flavor text you'll be ignoring next. They are all animated, and really well-done, but also disappointing in their lack of interaction.īullet hell begins to get boring after a while, and the ground combat system is about as bare-bones as it gets. H scenes are almost exclusively part of the gallery, and not part of the story at all. Solid worldbuilding, though sometimes exhausting in its detail (much of which makes no difference to the story being told in the slightest). Playing the game has been an exercise in cringing tedium for the most part. I bought Subverse on Steam, driven in large part by the preview images.
