Poll: gauging importance of images in teases like DominatR

Post by cockherofan »

I've made three DominatR teases so far and one of the most tedious parts is finding decent images to use. I really don't even think that much about them most of the time - I find a soft core gallery and show more and more nudity as the user is given instructions. For like 8 out of 10 matches the images feel like an afterthought.

I had an idea that creating the next DominatR would be a lot easier if most matches just had a "profile" picture rather than a series of images. Then, I wouldn't need to find entire sets - a single picture would be enough.

I'm curious whether people think this would ruin the tease. Do you actually care about the sequence of images in most of the matches?

I voted very important, but I think you could get by with some clever dialogue. Maybe you could earn more intimate photos by advancing the relationship. So maybe you just need the profile and maybe the "reward" picture.
I thought the hardest part might be adding appropriate dialogue to the pictures you do find. Maybe you get lucky and find the perfect set for the scenario you originally wanted.
I don't know. I never created a tease, and don't play this series any more. But I think it is a great series.
My advice : maybe just some patience. You have fans, but not a demanding audience. They should not rush you into working harder than your passion allows. Work hard, but let passion be your guide.
And maybe I'll try this game to offer better advice. What I don't seem to like is that it shifts gears too rapidly.

Usually very important, particularly when effort is put into the progression in the script/scene. The pictures need to progress with it.

If you're only asking about this particular series, my answer is very important.

I voted Kinda because there are exceptions. And when randomness/unpredictability is a bigger part of the experience than a story, it's possible to get away with using the rest of the tease with other porn.

The other thing I might suggest is using AI characters to act out your intended scenarios. My experience creating my own personal games using AI characters is that some AI engine will not let you create certain images that may be considered offensive. (Violent, sexual, cruel, ect) I have been using free and trial AI creator platforms online, maybe some subscription versions have no restrictions.
Here are some I created from a chat bot engine. (It was a testing subscription from my forum)

You can describe the character's attributes, expression, posture, objects they are holding, and the back ground.
If you are good at photo editing, you can do background swaps.
However, I don't suggest using AI to edit any photos of real people without their permission and offer them to the public.
