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.

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

[–] VonReposti@feddit.dk 10 points 1 week ago

You got a calendar for that? I only got a watch to keep track of my sessions

Just a heads up, because of payment processor stuff, most are free on itch.io right now also.

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 week ago

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.

My mindset exactly, may we well see if the juice is worth the squeeze, if you will.

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.

[–] relativestranger@feddit.nl 7 points 1 week ago

don't forget to pick up the original, which is also free. i put in way more hours into it than i care to admit when it was a new game.

Postal 2 is legendary, played the whole game right through! I love the ~~Asian~~ ALL AMERICAN grocery store with the interesting stuff upstairs lol

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I can't remember if it was p1 or p2, but I remember having to fight Gary Coleman. Lol

[–] BigPotato@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's Postal 2 - I think an early day of the week like day 2. Having to go to the mall and wait in line.

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 week ago

Yep. I remember it being in the mall for Coleman's book signing. I also remember that they actually got Gary Coleman as the voice actor.

I'm rewatching some Criminal Minds. You'd be surprised/horrified at what some people bust to. The main word of that show is sexual sadism. That said, this one does stand out among the other games lol

[–] takeda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 week ago

I haven't played it, but people say Being a dik game is quite good.

[–] Serinus@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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.

[–] whalebiologist@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

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.

[–] Philokins@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 week ago

I’ve played Being a ΔΙΚ, House Party, and Fetish Locator, and they’re pretty great. Heard good things about Hunnie Pop and Leap of Faith.

[–] swelter_spark@reddthat.com 2 points 1 week ago

I picked up a few that I've been wanting to try.
