The game is buggy and as many other have said it has a very cluttered, ugly and outdated user interface. And to clarify, buying this game does NOT eventually get you vam 2.x that is currently being developed. 2.x will be sold as a different game, not an update to this. You are only buying the current 1.x version. Further development has paused for 1.x but some content will be included with vamx and small adjustments made. But ultimately, no big changes. If you don't think you'd like the game as is, better to wait 3 years and hope 2.x improves. Changes will be made but don't expect a complete overhaul. It's not happening with this game

it works swell. mostly. but, its worth it i think. ive had a lot o fun.. and with all the user created content it seems like it will just continue to grow.
Edit:
After 2 days with it, i can say, this is unbelievable. the magicians that conjured this shit into existence should get dam Nobel prize ffs. and its not even in it refined state. the base package you receive from steam has plenty for any average degenerate to have loads of fun all day, but the addons start to bring this into another world of fun altogether. it is a bit complex i will say, but that's good, complexity and freedom (2 things this game has) breeds creativity and magic like you wouldn't believe. but it does give the creative aspects of this a bit of a learning curve if your completely new to that kinda stuff or at a beginner level. if your an experienced 3d modeler, animator, coder, indie VR dev, or the like, this will be like a dream sandbox to you. you can literally make another game in this if you have the skills, like a complete game(but one that already set up for SEX) . thats how open the software and back end of this is. if you can conjure the spell and get it into code for the game to run it, magic. whatever you want, and i mean, whatever you want.

I've had VaM for a year or two through their Patreon. Started with desktop only mode, and later with VR. If you're looking for a customizable porn sandbox, there's nothing better than this. Between the content in the base platform and the stuff added on the hub by community developers, there are a virtually unlimited number of sliders / morphs for changing various aspects of the characters' bodies, countless hairstyles, clothing options, etc.

This massive amount of customization comes with some bonkers complexity and a big, throbbing learning curve, though. While you can make a character with any appearance and body type you can imagine, it's easier by far to make soul-shattering Picassoesque monsters and dead-eyed Lovecraftian nightmares than it is to make anything you'd actually get goin' to. Unless you get goin' to some weird biz, that is.

This customization (and complexity) extends to every other aspect of the platform. Completely customized scenes, assets, sounds, animations, textures, etc. VaM feels more like a development tool than a game, to be honest, but that's also what makes it so great if you take the time to figure it out. If you're not able or willing to sort through the crazy UI and learn all the bits, though, VaM still has a built-in resource hub with thousands of user-made looks, assets, and other plug-ins that can be installed with a single click. Chances are pretty damn good you can find what you're looking for there.

Also, don't be fooled by the awkward and clunky looking screenshots and videos on the store page here: VaM has the best graphics of any game of this type by far, but it WILL challenge middling systems and may not be playable in VR at all unless you've got a pretty beefy rig and requires some customized or downloaded looks, plug-ins, post-processing effects, and scenes to really bring out the power of it. If you can run it in VR, however, it's gonna blow your mind. Since everything is customizable, how good a scene looks is totally up to the creator, and some of these horny goofs go all out on creating photo-realistic scenes with great motion-captured animations and a whole stack of custom effects to make the lighting work and blah blah blah.

TLDR; VaM is the most customizable porn game experience on the market by far and has stellar graphics, but it comes with a stiff learning curve and a ton of complexity to move past the out-of-the-box clunkiness. You can make absolutely anything you want to, but it won't come as easily as you do. If you're not a content creator, you can browse thousands of user-made submissions on the in-game download hub to find whatever you want.

PROS
*Endless customization of every aspect of the experience.
*An in-game download hub to browse thousands of user-made looks, clothes, hairstyles, scenes, animations, etc.
*Top-tier graphics.
*Literally any kink you can imagine can be created.
*The VR experience will make you say AWOOOGA.
*The soft-body physics are very good, and can be adjusted as needed to be more realistic with different body types

CONS
*"Out-of-the-box" experience is clunky and awkward and doesn't look especially great.
*The huge amount of complexity and customization that enables the best parts of this platform also come with a big hunka chunka learning curve.
*Literally any kink you can imagine can be created...
*You'll need a pretty darn good system to run it.

DO NOT purchase this if you're looking for a decent lewd VR experience. It's too buggy and glitchy at it's current state to be considered a finished product.

Almost the whole thing is unstable and not user-friendly to try and play even a simple POV scene. I have spent 3 hours now just trying to learn how even the most basic features works with it's confusing and clunky UI. Changing some settings to the game may cause crashes and also force you to restart SteamVR.

If, like me, you spend a lot of time on the character creation screen of every new RPG adjusting your character to look exactly the way you want (down to the color and shape of the eyes) this game will entertain you for hours.

VaM is a sandbox of character and scene creation, and after spending a little time with online tutorials I realized I could customize every tiny detail of my model and then bring her to life with realistic breathing, blinking, facial expressions, and head and eye tracking. Setting aside the animation, motion capture, and sex positions, it's breathtaking putting on the VR and feeling like you're standing in front of a real, live person.

As someone who is familiar with Illusion games like Honey Select, those don't even come close to the level of realism and customization in VaM. With a little time and effort, I was able to create a pretty spot-on clone of my own appearance for use as an avatar in-game. Think Illusion's Chara Studio but on steroids and with AAA level realism.

VaM's interface isn't as simplistic as other games and there is a learning curve, but once you get the hang of the basics you'll have hours and hours of fascinating play. Literally anything is possible. Recommend checking out the community hub for tons of custom content and addons.

VAM has gone a long way in this game. From Patreon and now Steam. Now, with the new plugin making it easier and friendlier despite having past experience, the game has improved quite vividly. Please continue to improve. We need more user-friendly UI with stronger customization options; try to make it even better than Sims 4 and Black desert online.

If you already have a subscription to Virt-A-Mate through their Patreon I am here to let you know the Steam version does not include anything different other than VaMX, it is still the exact same program and as far as I can tell there isn't any performance differences between the Steam and Patreon versions.

---

Virt-A-Mate is not a program you'll just pick up and understand. It took me a year of on and off use and a week straight of constant usage to get to the point of being able to share stuff I make.

One big thing about VaM that you need to understand before buying is that there is no tutorials. Yes there are your basic garden variety how to explore the UI tutorials, but for learning how to make something specific (Say preggo for example), there are no tutorials that will help you whatsoever.

Personally I find it a little weird to have a Steam release combined with VaMX. I hadn't used VamX until very recently and honestly if you don't already know VaM, VaMX will make you even more confused. I can easily see where it's supposed to make it easier for new users to make scenes and stuff, but for me it's just 10x more lag and unnecessary.

VaM is a great program for what it is, but it still has it's limitations. One of the biggest ones is performance. I don't know what other creators are using, but on a RTX 3080 with 48GB of RAM my PC is really struggling on larger scenes. I can't imagine someone with lower specs not having constant problems with lag.

It's cool having a Steam release but realistically it's kinda unneeded and personally I think the VaMX addition might turn off new users because it is a bit overwhelming at first. I like being able to track how many hours I've spent making smut, but other than that I really had no reason to buy the Steam version. Thinking about it I don't know who the Steam version really is for when anyone can try the Patreon version for as low as $5 which is better than risking $40 on a program you don't know how to use when you're a new user.

Currently running a 3060 ti with 32g ram Ryzen 7 5800x in vr 4k resolution. It will make your PC work i usually run 1 setting below the highest for more stable frame rate. Ui takes a bit of time to figure out the game characters look wonderful but play with the lighting makes all the difference. Overall it's a great game once given enough time to learn the in's and outs of it :D

Usually I wouldn't write a review until I've played finished or at least 12 hours for these games with sexual content, but I couldn't hold back my urge to praise this game and recommend to other gamers looking for these quality content.

VaMX is a extremely detailed sex simulator. One that actually works well, and has really high quality. It surprised me how well-made this game is made. Just 10 mins in, I already felt as if I bought a living love doll. This really filled a gap in my heart as games focused on sexual content has never reached this level of realistic detail. I can already foretell my upcoming free time for the next year being consumed by this game just simply perfecting my ideal virtual love doll and probably end up wanking really, really hard...

I'll probably update this review once I actually really get into it, but sincerely wow.

This is one of those I really tried to like it but.... It just sucks it has alot of good ideas but this game is the poster child of why "less is more" is a saying. So many great ideas done so damn poorly. Its super super buggy. the "AI" interactions are just bad at best while it does costume changes every 15 seconds....

TLDR avoid the hype and obvious fake reviews and pass or wait till its way cheaper cause 35 bucks isnt worth this buggy glitchy mess

Too hard and complicated, like I haven't figure how to change the colour of the eyes, or clothes in 80 min speedrun walkthrough.
Seems very nice for making nice screenshot and video but it's not really a game right now.
It also lack clothes like where are the high heels, the nice dress...

BakaNeo
BakaNeo

have to say no, might just be my computer is too slow (should not be) but the more i tried play around with stuff the more likly the game crashes. I used more time on trying not to crash the game than actually play it.

The game is actually pretty good, the visuel is great but OMG the VR portion while controling someone is really janky, used more time puzzle solving the arms and legs, as there where so many knots to untangle.

I really wish that someone would make a more stable VR game like this and get the bdy of the VR user right.

and i wish there was a better body creator and not just some randomnized. If there is i could't find it.

Will probably come back someday, but it need alot more work.

Overall presentation, polish and UI: 0 out of 10.
Camera control: 0 out of 10. *one of the most schizophrenic camera systems ever made.

The user interface in desktop mode for both VAM and VAMX is HORRIFIC,
The menus are extremely primitive, convoluted navigation and with tiny font sizes.
Want to remove a hat? You're about 20 menus & mouse clicks away from doing it...
Downloads from the microscopic VAM menu DON'T appear in the clunky VAMX menu.
That means all the bits & pieces you just downloaded have become needles in a haystack.
Switching resolutions back & forth between these 2 piece of sh*t UI's is melting my brain!
Plugin buttons don't have any visual or sound cues when you click them.
So there's 40 or so Plugins running in the background, or not, it's impossible to tell...........
Tutorials explain about 1% of the system so everything is confusing as f*ck for new players.
Horrible presentation, it doesn't even have a title screen when you start it up.

How the hell did such a sophisticated program with state-of-the-art models & animations wind up with such a CHEAP & NASTY interface?!?!

Both the UI and ultra-convoluted menu systems need to be completely overhauled.

The best anti-social sim around. The creators behind this and all of the resources for this are so talented. I'm really glad to see some of the bigwig names already having included a subset of their resources. That was a really nice surprise. The new UI is definitely an upgrade from the old, but thanks for including the old UI for those of us that have already or are just now getting used to it.

Pros:

    • The new standard of the genre imo.
    • Simply outstanding community of resource creators.
    • A literal plethora of resources to easily import. (Drag, Drop, Dependencies, Done or use the in-game store UI)
    • "These girls'll do anything, bro!"

Cons (kinda):

    • Yep, the UI is a little janky, but very usable once you get your bearings. Like watch a video or something.
    • Physics can cause load times to sky rocket with animations/sounds desyncing, but I get it.
    • Sometimes limbs get stuck in the most unnatural positions, which breaks immersion.
    • Creating your own assets requires a skill up with external software as you can't really create any new assets in-game. (Not a big deal. More of a heads up.)

As someone with probably well over 1000 hours in the Patreon version, this game gets better with experience. Forget the tutorials, just download stuff from the hub and experiment to figure stuff out. The UI is clunky and confusing but with use, it makes sense and is sorted very neatly. The graphics are incredible at max lighting count. I recommend HuntingSuccubus' Subsurface Scattering plugin to make the graphics really pop. Take some time to just explore the menus and you will have a much easier time customizing scenes and looks. It's basically GMod for porn so there's a bit of a learning curve.

Something very important to know about VaM that I want to be sure people see: you can do -anything-.

I can't stress this enough. If you have any kind of wants or thoughts, it is possible to do it one way or another. The complexity and depth of this sandbox is truly astounding. It has so much content for every kind of person. If you want thicc women, futa content, gay male content, anything at all really! It's possible to find it or make it yourself with enough practice, and then experience it in VR (or desktop mode is good too) like never before.

I also wish some of the screenshots and teasers on the store page looked better! You can have some insanely realistic looking models, animations, and more with the right textures and lighting. No amount of praise or review will do this software justice of what it is capable of. I promise you will not regret this purchase!

I played for the first time recently, in some kind of 1.20 version and was simply amazed by this game. Truly the best game of this "genre"! (Play strictly with VR for a full sense of what is happening) I stumbled upon it by chance on Steam and at first I didn’t even believe my eyes, since the game has been around for many years and they finally released it on Steam just now. But it is very important that they released a ready-made finished product, where even a beginner like me can figure it out! Because they added a very convenient new control menu and training that you can optionally go through at any time exactly what you need. In general, we really tried to make everything as simple as possible for a large lazy Steam audience :)
Thank you for bringing the game to Steam. Let's support and make this game number one! (I played on 3080 10GB and the game crashes, but I think it's not critical)

35.00 Dollar experiment for the folks in the know and newbies. I am a Patreon for these creators who has been playing for about a year on a quest 2 using Rift to connect and play and I love VAM!. This port "at least for me" doesn't seem to be working correctly. It's jittery. Loads seem quick but also jittery. I originally got Vam and VamX on Vr "Corn" dot com. I had to watch a bunch of tutorials and that barely helped. I love what they did with the tutorials here! But for someone who has basic knowledge of Vam and VamX, how it runs here is annoying. Everything seems janky and simply is not smooth here and that could put off some newbs which is a shame because VAM is Epic!!!

For reference I'm playing on a 3070, Ryzen 7 3700x 8, 16 gigs of ddr4 ram. It runs just fine and even looks a lot better through Oculus Rift loader thingy. It ran on my 1050ti when I first tried Vam. Granted that was on a black background when you don't have a scene. But it was smoother than this! This seems like a mess. Granted this just came out today and I'm sure there will be bug fixes, BUT... Those fixes (few and far between over the last year) won't come to steam first. They will come after Vam creates them which as of the trend can take months or even years!

My point here is, if you have a capable PC and are willing to learn a few things, Vam is defiantly the best VR corn sim out there by far!!! You can do almost anything! Super fun but I would recommend going strait to the source and following any online tutorials to get you started so you can make anything you want in anyway!

MY INTRO:
OK, this is from the perspective of a complete NOOB. I never touched this type of stuff until I literally downloaded this a couple hours ago.

I am playing on an Oculus Pro with RTX 3900, over airlink. However, buying this one game allows you to play both the VR and non-VR/desktop version.

WHAT IS THIS GAME?
Think of this game as LittleBigPlanet or Minecraft for adults. Yes, you can craft your own levels, but that is difficult for a beginner, so why not just enjoy levels built by the community first?

There are thousands of FREE scenes you can download from the community; you then just watch these scenes from the male character's first person POV.

The variety of the scenes is insane. The level of gamer interactivity varies with each scene.

In one scene, you are at school with a Japanese schoolteacher. You have to solve simple math equations under a timer, and each time you get it right, the schoolteacher "rewards" you. Let's just say her increasing "rewards" distract your eyes from your goal of solving the next equation.

In another scene, you see a menu of all the "fun hugging positions" you can try out, and you click the one you want to do. After that, you click on another "position", like you are a real-time director. Each time you click on a new position, the girl naturally transitions into it before your eyes, without cutting to black, so it is like one ongoing movie.

Another scene allow you to possess the male character's arms with your controllers, so you can grab the girl's body, and it reacts realistically to your touch.

Another scene, you are training this girl, and based on the number of times you clap your hands, she does a different "action".

There are even some scenes with lots of dialogue you click through, like a visual novel game. Like there is this one scene where you are a pool boy working for an older woman. And you play this mini-game where you use your controller to remove leaves from the pool, and put sun lotion on her back. I am still not done with this one, it is pretty long, with multiple parts.

Some scenes are more like passive shows that run on its own, while you zoom in on parts.

Amazingly, the graphics are like PS5 level, the models are insanely good looking. And I have had zero glitches or bugs so far.

I AM NOOB AND AM SCARED:
Most other reviewers of this game basically went to the level/scene creation tools, tried to create a scene on their own with little experience, and then got janky results. I didn't even bother with the creation tools, I am frankly too dumb and lazy to create a scene of my own.

Yes, the creation tools are difficult to understand. But the tools and menu you use to play other people's scenes are WAY WAY easier and intuitive. Just read my review/guide on how to do it, you don't even need to play the game's tutorial to figure out how to play other people's scenes.

Can a complete noob play interactive scenes downloaded from the community within 30 minutes? ABSOLUTELY. Here is how:

When you first enter the game, your main two buttons are the trigger button and the A button on your right controller.

Click the trigger button to bring up the menu. Now, do you see the HELP button on the lower left part of the menu? Click that to have access to the tutorials. They are optional for our purposes, but they are there if you want to brush up on certain things (Part 1 and 3 are especially good).

HOW TO DOWNLOAD A SCENE:
Press the B button on your right controller. You will see a completely different menu than the one you would see if you clicked the trigger. You will primarily use this menu (the B button menu) from now on, not the menu you open with the trigger button. This B button menu will allow you to download community scenes and play them.

So in this menu that you summoned with the B button on the right controller, point at the 5th icon on the second row, it looks like a picture of a molecule, and when you hover over it, it is called "Hub browse". Press the A button to select it.

You will then go to this giant community menu of stuff you can download. Look to the left and find "Category". Then click on the "All" button next to it, and limit the stuff you see only to "scenes". There are tons of ways to filter the scenes, but for now, just click one scene you like. You can scroll down for more options by clicking on the far right white scrolling button and dragging it down.

Once you find one you like, click on the scene with the right A button. Now this is very important. On the scene you selected, make sure you click "Download all". That way, you download all the assets you need for the scene.

After that, that's it, you got the scene all loaded up and ready to play!

HOW TO PLAY A DOWNLOADED SCENE:
To play the scene, click on the B button to open up that same menu again. Click on the third icon on the first row, which looks like a green folder., and it is called "All Scenes Browser" when you hover over it". Click on the name of the scene you downloaded, and you are now inside the scene!

Now in most scenes, the creator of the scene designed a menu SPECIFICALLY for this scene. The menu buttons are usually on the wall on the scene, that you can click on with the A button. This creator menu on the wall shows the unique interactive features of THIS particular scene.

Many scenes also allow you to quickly assume the male character's first person view with one click; you just click the "FOV" button in the scene's wall.

So in another scene, the FOV" button wasn't on the wall. So in those cases, what you wanna do is basically align your FOV to where the male character is; basically manually move your camera to the male character's head, so you see what he sees.

To do this, use the left controller joysticks to move on the X-axis, and the right controller joystick to move on the Y-axis until your camera aligns with the male character's head, and you have his FOV to the action. Or choose to put your camera anywhere you want in the scene, to zoom in on whatever you want.

On certain scenes, the creator will allow you more interactivity and allow you to grab and grip and pull the girl in certain ways. In those scenes, just click on the secondary trigger button on the controller to grab.

In those scenes that you can use your controllers as the male character's hands, you really can't do too much to really throw her around a lot, given she is on a predetermined set of motions, but you can DEFINITELY do a lot, like push her body in a certain direction while she is doing her programmed action.

And that is it! I figured out all this stuff mostly just by following the in-game tutorial and messing around, within an hour.

This is just scratching the surface of what this amazing program can do; I am only writing this review to tell you that a complete noob can have access to unlimited scenes with minimal pain and jank.

If you wanna spend the time to learn the creation tools and create your own levels, awesome!

PATREON VERSION COMPARISON:
I have since also bought the Patreon version of the Virtamate and VaMX, so I can potentially get updates faster. The Patreon version and the Steam VR are basically the same, at least to my noob brain. The Patreon version, when loading assets for a scene, the menu doesn't shake and shudder so much. And assets load a bit faster into the scene.
But the two versions are practically the same currently, you wouldn't miss out on anything major if you go for either.
The Patreon version also is more complicated to download and install, but if you know how to mod Fallout 4, you know how to install patreon version Virtamate and VaMX; the instructions are pretty simple.
I am gonna play more on the Patreon version than this version, so my hours of playing on the steam version will probably stay around 5 hours, but that doesn't mean I gave up on this game; this game is cool.

Honestly thought this would be a better version of koikatsu party saddly it wasn't. The added content feels soulless and getting new girls is kinda like downloading pictures of girls, this game is that kinda game were you need VR i think because beyond that i could hardly get anything to work.

The best content creation tool for 3D Modeling or well adultery, there's nothing as advanced on the market as VAM, it's very beginner friendly supports a huge library both free and Paid content from other users, I recommend it to anyone who's ever interested in this stuff you WILL not be dissapointed.

Also the game runs fine both Desktop mode and VR I personally use Desktop for 3D modeling!

Remember dress up games on Newgrounds? They've come along way.
This isn't so much just a vr pron game or a desktop dress up sim as it is an engine to take 3d porn matters into your own friggin hands. You're the director now but also you're the technical artist too so I hope you're fond of digging through bullcrap Ui elements for 30 minutes while you go soft trying to customize one very specific aspect of the scene.
I didn't really know what to expect getting into this "game" but what I did get was staggeringly large number of boners in addition to moments of scratching my head wondering just WTF was I supposed to do. The tutorial is pretty wack and I can't recommend starting in VR. To really get the most out of this experience you'll need to look up how plugins work. The in game plugin browser/downloaders they have are actually pretty good and will find dependencies you need for addons for you with out having to leave the app and reload. I hope this thing takes off because what the community has done already makes it next level. If you enjoy deep fakes and are frustrated by having to find videos to use then this thing is a life saver... or a life destroyer.

I can't lie in its current state the game feels a touch rough and will sometimes crash. I had to find a plugin to make sure the conduits would line up more reliably even. The Ui feels like a game from 2000 whatever moved heaven and earth to find us today. All that said a lot of effort seems to have gone in to make this thing robust in a way that's pretty rare for any game.

I've heard of VaM for a long time now but finally decided to get it after this release on Steam. Before this, I've tried a different game which is similar and great in its own ways but VaM + vamX totally blows it out of the water in terms of features and community content. There are SO MANY THINGS included already that it might seem overwhelming at first but just follow the tutorials in-game and read a few guides and you will have a nice time. You will definitely find something you like but you can still add tons more of community created content, both free and paid of extremely detailed models and advanced Addons/Plugins.

I know this game is intended for VR but I have only been enjoying the Desktop mode so far, playing with different scenes and customizing girls so that I'll have some stuff prepared for when I get around to hopping in VR. My performance in Desktop mode has been great but I will update this with my VR experience after I've tried it. My specs are: Core i9-9900K, RTX 2080 Super, 32 GB RAM (3200 MHz), and the game is installed on a SATA SSD. These are no longer amazing specs but it is still very capable for most things I throw at it. I will be using a Quest 2 since I have an optimal setup for wireless VR with Virtual Desktop. As long as I feel immersed, it's good enough for me and I don't need maximum graphics to feel immersed, although max settings do run well in Desktop mode for the most part.

You definitely need this game installed on a good SSD with a lot of free storage because certain things will take some time to load and I know it would likely be intolerable on an HDD. Currently I have it installed on a SATA SSD and the loading of new stuff can take quite some time but it's not unbearable. I was considering reinstalling to my boot drive which has an NVMe M.2 SSD but I've read it may not be that much better. It's really not an issue though because once your scene and customizations are loaded, cached, and saved it should not take that long again.

Sadly a Quest 2 alone may not achieve the "full" experience but this may just be the game that gets me to upgrade my setup and get trackers and smart toys. I do not care to seek out a real partner. You can call me a loser if you wish but I know playing this will satisfy the primal urges for sexual partners. Instead of wasting money on escorts, relationships, marriage, and risky hookups, I can just play this. These virtual people will not reject you, will not judge you, will not betray you, will not cheat on you (unless you're into that) and will fulfill your fantasies. By choosing to get VaM + vamX, you will achieve maximum sigma male grindset.

This has a HUGE amount of potential, but in it's current state it is buggy, awkward to use, lacks any sort of usable user-interface for normal people, and poorly optimized. It did just come out so hopefully they put effort into fixing all the issues and bugs with it.

As far as user friendliness goes, this is one of the least user friendly programs I have ever used. It gets really hard to relax and get into this game, when using it is so stressful due to how convoluted it's menus and controls are. This game was not designed with any sort of end user in mind; it clearly was only designed for developers, and programmers. They really should toss out the whole UI and start over.

The two good things this game does have going for it, are amount of content, and amount of options. You can make endless kinds of scenes. But figuring out how to do so is an exercise in anger and stress. It appears to have a big user made library of content, from long before it came to Steam.

It seems like it is not a finished product, just a development system for making VR porn, minus a proper end user interface to use the porn content, in a way designed for any sort of normal individual that is not a software developer. It is basically pre-alpha, and not even that since it is merely the development software, missing any decent user experience. It looks like a lot of the positive ratings here are made by content developers from the game's non-Steam user-base.

I recommend this immersive game as it allows full access to easy Desktop (non-VR) mode. Community of complete videos for download and complete creation of scenes with full interaction in all content. Game works perfectly and runs without any bugs or crashes. 5 stars.

This is not the first game I try with a similar idea, and it's not the first game where I run into the same issue that nobody seems to even want to address: making a sex game sandboxy and give freedom to the player is not an excuse to force them to waste a stupid amount of time adjusting everything.
I tried to start a simple pose. Select the female model, select the male model, select the pose. Well, now the models are doing their thing, but I'm just a bystander, not good. Find the possess option, try to posses the male. Something does happen, but now I'm not properly aligned with anything. I can only try to move so much in my room, and don't get things to align at all. Any option to reset alignment or auto align don't do what they should do. Even if I managed to finally align everything, I would still be seeing from within the male's head, which is not transparent, nor is the neck, or anything that could get in my field of view and shouldn't. And even if I did finally manage to get everything perfect, it would be ruined once I selected a new pose. It takes waaaaaaaay too much fiddling to get anything done.

Have to admit I was skeptical about this at first. But last night tried it out and wow!!, I had so much fun!
In VR without the most optimal specs it worked good enough (RTX 2060 laptop 16GB ram) there was some janky scene changes, but I accepted that.
It's like The sims on steriods or viagra! Was worth the price to go back 40 years and be young again. Incredible to "touch" and see responses reflected in muscle and flesh. I got back on the dance floor ;-)
Very erotic and close as I will get in my lifetime to RL virtual partners. After 2 hours it was like "when Harry met Sally" people would have heard and said- I'll have what he is having!" My mind has been going non stop since how I can implement some of my deepest fantasies with this tool-I'm sure it will be possible and fun learning and trying. GOTY for me.

It's both sexy and creepy watching a naked AI woman crab walk around on all fours, glitching and twisting her limbs over random objects on the floor, while breathing and staring at you the whole time.

Models feel plastic. Your personal interaction with models using your own virtual hands is very clunky.
You can choreograph various actors interacting, but then it's just voyerism and watching a high quality movie is better than watching the actors do their thing. VR should be about you being one of the main actors, not just watching others.

If I want to just arrange actors having sex, I'd rather do desktop titles like Perfect Lover or Succubus Cafe, where they put effort into making the actors life-like and nuances in the sexual acts to make them really erotic rather than feel like two mannequins rubbing against each other.

Although this title has piles of options in the huge menu, ultimately the experience is not better than a lot of other VR basic titles like SinVR or Horny Nurses. Unless what you are primarily looking for is the ability to craft the particular scene you want with actors that look like what you want. If you are willing to do the work or if someone has done the work for you already, then it might be worthwhile.

5/5 (even tho it's not perfect yet), so glad I bought it, I wasn't sure if it'll even run on my poor PC having only 8GB ram, RTX 2060 & i7-6700K CPU ...but guess what..it definitely can run on it surprisingly well compared to what I expected, I didn't feel any FPS slow downs except for when I tried to open menues I think.

I've only played it for 44 min but I can already tell the game is totally next gen when it comes to everything, the boobs physics are extremely realistic, I squeezed her boob and it felt so real and convincing, it was so enjoyable as if it was real, her butt was also extremely realistic, I was shocked at how much realism and accuracy a game can have in VR using such soft body physics...it was perfect, even her lips were realistic with their physhics and they felt soft and realistic.

It is the most advanced and incredibly realistic physics I've ever experienced in VR and in general in a video game..such an experience, a calming one, you feel like you just have a quality good time with your hot girl, an experience of fun and pleasure and intimacy which I love, not sure you can call it a video game since it's that realistic..very enjoyable for the shitty PC i've...so I fully recommend buying it if you have a good PC.

The UI is not the best but it's also not the worst, it's fine, but I haven't yet checked it fully, had to go to sleep, the graphics of the game are awesome and realistic, the lighting is great.

As for bugs..it's too early for me to tell how buggy the simulation is..so far so good but I only tested the very first scene out of many more.

To think this was only the initial tutorial scene with just one girl out of many more...with different shapes and dresses each and what not..wow, definitely the best of the best when it comes to sex simulators, nothing comes even close to it, I don't think there will ever be a competitor to this game either, so far I'm very happy with it, I love it, this is the dream game I was waiting to get all this time..on this interaction realism level..for the first time I felt a "real" woman in my hands, she was just a virtual one..the future is here ! what a game..bravo to the developer for all the hard work, thank you for this game and for making our dreams come true with it, it's worth every dollar.

(Oh I also forgot to mention that the game even has an AI system (Maive AI) which makes her react to voice commands ETC...so crazy)

Oh.... My.... GOD! This is truly modern adult entertainment! The models looks amazing, the "auto" are spectacular and feel real. This is top of the line! HOT better step up its game if it plans on standing a chacne against software like this

quite complex and complete...
not a "game" per se...
but you can pretty much make the scene that you wish...
not the kind of game that you pick and play right of the box...
it require to spend some time figuring out everythings...
but all the work in here is clearly worth the price compare to other "games" who are asking for half the price but provide not even a tenth of what you get with that "game".

I wouldn't necessarily call this a game, it's more like an animation studio tool that lets you create just about anything you can think up. Another thing to realize that if you want to create something for yourself then there is a learning curve unless you stick to the basic animations and models provided. You can spend days building a scene, basically an animation sequence that has 10 minutes of content.
This tool is a perfect example of you get out of it what you put into it, and while I'm looking forward to the challenge I'd say it's not for everyone. I'd suggest looking at some of the VAM how to videos before you decide if this is right for you.

The creative toolset is plain amazing. The community is extremely well-developed, has a ton of custom content to use. The scope is fairly mind-blowing.

This project definitely has potential, but the UI is a TOTAL, ABSOLUTE MESS. Even professional and semi-professional development tools have much more intuitive, well-categorized controls. To do very simple things you need either to do a lot of trial and error, or read, watch tutorial videos. It's just crazy.

The UI needs to be reworked from scratch. Hire an UI designer, for heaven's sake.
