Today a friend linked me a patreon where a guy earns 12k dollars a month rendering horses doing it with Lara Croft. The world is a strange strange place.

WTF am I doing with my life!?

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Don't be surprised fam this is a very lucrative business; a good portion of erotic creators make bank.

I thought people were making it for fun.. they getting stacks!

 

[Parfait]

Don't be that guy.

Son if there's an overwatch character you graviate towards when it comes to fanart, porn or not, then I have some good news. You have a husbando/waifu.

 

[Aurongel]

Big business protects their brand from association with pornography that's fueled headlines for the past week, not surprising. I'd do the same thing if I were in charge of an IP like this, it's bad business when some of the biggest headlines about your game are related to porn.

 

[Dabanton]

Some of the highest grossing Patreon's are from people that make animated porn games or animated porn movies. The Patreon with the highest user support is one that makes animated porn games and pulls down 35k a month.

Woah. I'm legit taken aback by that.

Perverts filling those coffers.

Do people make/view this just to be funny/subversive or are they actually getting off on it?

 

[Yeezus]

I agree with the notion that this is probably a knee-jerk reaction to (what was actually) Kotaku's (really good) write up.

 

[yanipheonu]

Man, trying to stop the INTERNET from making porn out of your popular game seems to be a definition of Futile.

Honestly I'd be flattered people want to fuck characters I made. Seems to be a pretty big sign they're liked lol.

The latter; 100%...at all times.

 

[sora87]

So does this mean Blizzard are making their own porn now?

Guest appearance from Sylvanas plz blizz

lol

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

Maybe they should like...embrace the fanart community. Maybe not the half of it thats porn, but the other half of people on Pixiv or Deviantart not drawing porn.

But let the people draw their porn

 

[Shredderi]

I can see their desire to do this as mentioned a few posts above this. Thing is though, that reading this I am reminded of something from my childhood. I remember this rather chubby kid looking intensely at the ground. At his feet were an ant. The ant's chances were not high against the boot.

What do you think?

To get off

 

[Daemul]

Well the highest earning Patreon project is a porn video game which is doing about $35.000 per month. There's clearly a market for it. Let's not talk about the amount of Skyrim and Mass Effect porn out there.

I am firmly convinced Breeding Season is a money laundering scheme. There is no way people are happily paying for an in development game with zero progress made every month.

Breeding Season makes 35k per month? Lol wat? That game is a scam.

Yes

[SilentRob]

wait there's overwatch porn?
Edit: confimed

Write the following into google:

Sonic SFM Futa

Your question will seem silly afterwards.

 

[E_Darkness]

I guess this will just create more Overwatch porn.

Spoiler

Time to see if anyone is taking commissions.

 

[Yarbskoo]

There's Amiibo porn

Am I doing it right?

 

[BaronMonstro]

Sometimes I sit back and just wonder why the hell people are so damn horny all the time.

Is it me? Am I actually the weird one for not wanting to shove my dick in a bunch of polygons that resemble the general shape of a human female???

 

[Johndoey]

Son if there's an overwatch character you graviate towards when it comes to fanart, porn or not, then I have some good news. You have a husbando/waifu.

They ain't ready for that truth.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

ive always wondered how it feels as a creator to have your work showered with dicks by fans

As a creator I would be happy. Having porn made from characters in my game means the game is somewhat popular and that some people out there really like the character designs.
I would also found the situation funny. If its going to exist and it really makes no harm (and can even help you get more popular) why stop it. Let people do whatever they want in the intimacy of their house.
Having normal fanart would also be pretty cool, and something you can show that you can be proud.

A little from column A, alot from column B. I'm obviously in column A

Unless its D.va, Mei, Tracer, Hanzo, Lucio, Mc Cree, Winston, Reaper, Bastion, or my boy Solider 76(more like 69 imma right?) then imma make a home in column B

Then he drew the ant with some fat tits and spilled his seed like a hurricane at a birdfeeder?

 

[Crocodile]

This is as good a use of time as a man punching the literal ocean. Also blah blah Streisand Effect blah blah

so she's blizzard's equivalent to the really 700 years old trope

I mean she looks and acts like a grown woman so no?

Honestly I'm happy about this. Tracer is my favourite character, its pretty off-putting that she's sexualised to the extent that she is by the more NSFW side of community. This could go for a lot of game characters, but I'm happy that Blizzard are actually making a statement.

I mean I'm not going to disrespect your feelings but like welcome to humanity/the internet. Rule 34 isn't a bug, its a feature.

Maybe they should like...embrace the fanart community. Maybe not the half of it thats porn, but the other half of people on Pixiv or Deviantart not drawing porn.

But let the people draw their porn

They have been embracing the fanart community with things like the 21 days of Overwatch on DA. Which makes this weird since they should realize how futile and counter-productive this is. Ah well.

Meanwhile at Gearbox:

Won't somebody please make some Battleborn porn?

LMAO

 

[Aurongel]

Wouldn't be surprised about a Streisand effect

Doubtful, even if they DMCA'd these videos for the next year, the headlines would still die down. Besides, there's no lack of interesting fan art to promote instead. This is just brand protection 101.

 

[Orochinagis]

Well, the last of us weird stuff nearly got extinct due underage laws

 

[Kater]

More like Oversnatch. Or Overcrotch.

Or

watch.

Porn artists and their stupid names.

I wish you were doing it right

I wish I was still that innocent

Yeah really. Like, Blizzard is 100% within their rights here, but it's very much a case of "...why?" Like, if they're worried porno is going to tarnish the image of the game for someone googling Overwatch for the first time, congratulations: "Blizzard DMCA's Overwatch Porn" is now a news story about to pop up on a bunch of recent news feeds which will probably make a lot more people aware of it than letting the whole thing be. If they're somehow naive enough to think that this will make a dent in the amount of Overwatch porn that exists, there's an old phrase about trying to empty the ocean with your hands that seems relevant.

Let 'em live, seriously.

 

[Cyrano]

Yes

Where's that appropriate gif... oh yeah!

 

[Flintty]

I'll never understand why some gamers want the porn removed. If you don't like it you don't look at it and it doesn't affect you. Don't be so fucking prude and arrogant to think everyone should think as you do.

Why not beat off to humans? Are badly animated CGs hotter? I'm open minded but I'm having trouble understanding

Like there's a lot of people who go "time to beat off" and search up Overwatch porn? That happens a lot?

 

[Demoskinos]

Ftfy

Well of course. But that doesn't mean you couldn't also honestly be interested where a character comes from if they are visually appealing to you.

 

[MetroidPrimeRib]

You are right about that. Good on them.

Where's Madarame when you need him?

Yes, someone is going to fanart and rub one out to Ghost Song.

I'm not going to hot glue them if that's what you're looking for.

The lack of Soldier 76 content continues to disappoint, come on people total dad bod.

Should i be honest, i am a vore fan. Yes, i have that fetish lol
I don't care about "normal porn", but i understand those People.

Trusth me, i saw even worse.

Next week bliz adds gold boxes that cost $5 each, in each box is a either a vid, pic or skin of an adult nature. Users still get the same 3 items over and over...

[wenis]

This is only going to cause more people to seek out more overwatch porn.

 

[Hektor]

Just did do a check all around and it seems no major site i browse heard of has been affected yet.

 

[unholyrevenger72]

Why not beat off to humans?

i'm way to afraid to post the actual gif in the context of this thread.
