SLR vision and logic

imratore Like the Eyes Wide Shut orgy scene where you walk around watching other banging away until you come upon one unoccupied lovely that it's your turn with.

Coming into a room like that in VR would be a dream come true. Like being the freshman who is introduced in this super filthy high society circle in which everybody has sex with everyone and every girl you come by is eager to fuck with you and to please you...

In the ideal setting such an orgy would include some moving-cam aka "walking" sections for the full fantasy. But with modern techniques you could make them easily skippable for those who might get motion sick that way. Damn, how much I'd love such a scene, one big baccanalia feast with lots of men and women fucking around you. The tech is now almost advanced enough to make you really feel like you're there. I can only imagine such an orgy in 10k VR...

imratore Or walk into a club with my partner and she gets stripped and fucked while someone is sitting by me slowly stroking me off but the focus is on the action in front.

Damn, another great suggestion. Sooooo fucking hot... ️

You made great harem scenes but when will we finally get proper orgy scenes @doublevr ?

petermc Yes, SLR was always a Netflix style site with lots of content from other studios. That was not what attracted me (or the others complaining here) to them. Some of the other sites were decent (SexBabesVR, DeepInSexVR), but not enough to join for since their releases were delayed and I could either sub to them or pirate them if I really wanted to. The other studios were not a factor to me because they do the type of porn I DONT like - either gonzo (WankzVR), the same tired scenes repeated endlessly with poor positions (RealJamVR), amatures who really just want to bang models (Tadpole, PerVRt), very old recycled stuff (TMWvr), or shaky cam nonsense filmed with 2 GoPros taped together on a stick (No2StudioVR), etc.

The thing I subbed for was the glory days of SLR Originals, when Alex Nash was shooting almost all of them, and they were masterpieces of immersion-friendly VR - GFE, story driven, top models who knew how to seduce and fuck, perfect lighting and camera placement, etc. This was solidified even more when they hired @RealcumberScripts to provide perfectly matching, handcrafted, frame by frame scenes for use with The Handy. That arrangement was just chef's kiss.

Starting last summer, though, they have moved away from that - hard. Instead of a master director, they have several crews of also-rans filming in warehouses with models who are often out of their depth or poorly coached. Don't get me wrong - there are a few gems here and there, but the consistent quality of the Nash-era is gone. To make matters worse, they seem to be driven to provide less and less with our subscription dollars with each change - fewer Nash-quality SLR Originals, SLR Original releases diluted over several product lines, ever decreasing production values, fewer and fewer downloads allowed, DeoVR getting worse with every iteration, blocking XBVR, blocking Heresphere - the list just goes on and on. Now, apparently, we're going to focus on non-POV, because we just haven't seen it done right. Sigh.

If you all are happy with lots of low-quality porn, have fun. I'm not the only poster noticing the Walmart effect around here. I admit I am a power user and an enthusiast of sorts (I have a Pimax, Oculus Pro, Vive, Handy, spare Handy, SR-6, and have paid thousands of dollars to private scripters), but it seems that the quality, prime-time product I signed up for is being overruled by "volume" and "diversity". Others have suggested that perhaps SLR Originals - Nash-style - should be a seperate studio, dedicated to that type of release and maybe at a premium price. I'd pay it, gladly. No one else is doing VR that well, in my opinion, so there is nowhere else to go for me once it dies. Right now, I am really just staying for the scripts, and mostly only @RealcumberScripts at that. This follows my evolution of interest in this site: I used to check all the new videos daily (until they were mostly crap), then check SLR Originals daily (until they died, too). Now I just check to see what was scripted - but since they seem to be pushing hard for AI-generated scripts, I am sad to say that that probably won't last long either.

Walmart makes a ton of money, but they still sell crap. When Walmart comes to your town, their giant Netflix-style stores with lots of content put the other stores out of business. Once that happens, the only choice you have is crap.

Be careful what you wish for.

I get your complaints, and I also agree with some of them. But unless you are a very new subscriber during the "glory days" of SLR Originals (1-2 years ago, like you mentioned) you were getting 2 videos a week that matched the genre you "signed up for". You are still getting your 2 videos a week in that genre, usually 3 to be fair. Now, if those 2-3 videos a week are no longer meeting your standards of quality due to warehouse locations, poor direction, or whatever that's certainly fair criticism and issue you should bring up.

However, if SLR is now producing 4 videos a week and 1, on average since they bumped up the weekly scene count, of them is Passthrough, non-traditional genre, etc. that really isn't whats diluting the quality of the videos you are getting. That's a quality issue with those 2-3 scenes you should be addressing. The new scenes are in addition to the 2-3 weekly videos that are still being made. Its a separate issue so don't hate on the folks who are asking for a little more variety. There is room on this site for people getting a couple of high quality traditional videos per week and the other genres getting one too.

The truth lies imho somewhere in between. While what you've said is true for the production team on set it's not entirely true for the inhouse stuff doing the editing and scripting etc. You might have enough people on the field but to me it seems that they don't have enough staff for all the stuff that happens after the actual shoot took place. And that's a real issue if you want to increase production but struggle with staff shortcomings in certain areas. That naturally leads to either some drop in quality or delays or both.

That's fair. I agree with that and I think you're right about editing and scripts.
Still I think the overall long term goal should be for higher quality AND diversity of content. Just scapegoating the 8 scenes that fall outside of the norm (Greenscreen, JAV, Trans) like they are the entirety of the issue is really not accurate, and that's what I originally took issue with. That's such a tiny amount of the production over the last year and really has nothing to do with most of the complaints being leveled against the regular scenes (which were being complained about before any of these new scenes even existed anyways).

BML5768 How about this
4 green video, 3 with girls that have never done a VR video before. Still have never done a VR video that wasn't green. SLR the company booked these girls and decided to boost their green videos popularity by putting these newbies in them. This is a decision that affects me. They chose to spend their money on green over other.

Well, for what it's worth, I'd guess that these newbies were actually cheaper than some seasoned pornstars. Of course it sucks that we see some new talent only in PT scenes so far but I really doubt that SLR invested big in talent here. More likely they deliberately chose newbies to keep the talent costs down, simply since they were not sure how this stuff would be perceived. I mean, we complained about seasoned talent in PT greenscreen as well (like Xxlayna Marie...)...

Let's just hope that these greenscreen newbies will appear in some regular VR scenes as well in the foreseeable future.

Yep, users who don't like Passthrough scenes would inevitably be disappointed with the casting either way, whether it's a newbie or a seasoned talent, which is totally understandable. I don't believe anything will be changing from what's always been done for all SLRO scenes: a combination of scenes with both types of talent.

But either way, the Passthrough scenes should soon be under a "new" studio to separate them a bit from the standard scenes, so for anyone who isn't a fan you won't have to pay attention to them. And for those who like them you can still easily watch them. Also, hopefully the "alpha channel" work for the green screen scenes should make them more palatable for folks who aren't interested in the Passthrough aspect or don't have a supported headset/etc.
