Patterns in vore games (vore in general?)

I've been playing vore games for more than a decade now and find myself noticing a lot of similarities between how vore scenes play out. Preds tend to have very identical personalities even though they're written by different people. For example, female preds always seem to giggle as they swallow their prey, taunting them with becoming fat while being in a apathetic/semi-aroused state and males are mostly furries being less sexualized.

I'm aware there's only so many ways to write a vore scene, but nowdays when I'm playing a game and run into a slime girl I know exactly how the scene's going to play out almost word for word...

I'm not trying to shit on anyone's writing, I'm just curious if anyone else has noticed or is bothered by it?

Porn in general is very same-y. People tend to want the same sorts of things, differing only on which kinks they're into.

That feeling you are experiencing is a sign from the gods telling you to make a superior vore game.

Yeah, patterns like this emerge in every sort of kink and every sort of porn. It's really lame.

Some patterns, once established, are hard to break out from.

The giggly, taunting female is fairly easy to break from, but male preds that are almost emotionless about eating what they consider food is really hard to break from.

While hard, it is not impossible to break from to standards for a few individual characters.

That all said, the giggly, horny female is a porn staple as someone always ready for the smut scenes. So, breaking away completely isn't going to happen long term.

I've been playing around with rpg maker mv for a while now, but I'm not a native english speaker and don't want to release something poorly written.

That hasn't stopped a lot of others. Don't let it stop you.

Here's how to "break" from repetitive writing.

Give the characters ~life
That's right. Name them. Give them backstory. Give them morals, family, purpose, a strive, a goal, and a view on life as they know it.

You have to do this for every single character you want to use in a scene. Without this backboard, they are Generics, and Generic characters will be used Generically because they cannot be used specially.

The games and stories are mostly made for a quick fap with no care for the content, and that's the problem you're running into.

This is the best advice I have seen for writers on any fetish site. If you want people to like the characters you write, you have to actually write *characters* and not just actors filling the role in a scene. I think some of the people who do art here on Eka's are very good at this. They write characters who actually have motives and goals beyond simple fetish gratification for the audience. Most people in real life are not simply nymphomaniacs or sociopaths (or both) but that is what 90% of Core OC's tend to be depicted as being. That's what happens when you are writing smut and only smut, rather than erotic fiction.
