  • SLR Originals reset plan - Nov '23

  1. I don't see an issue that both laying down and sitting positions in the same video in AR porn. Imho the issue is that either positions often feel rushed and they are over before they started. So I end up having to loop it. Just make them longer.
  2. I also don't like there's less focus on eg. other positions. Instead I feel there should be more work put into making those positions better for AR porn. I would like to eg. bang the girl on or over my desk or dinning table. It's fun.
  3. In terms of VR vs AR... well I dislike the idea of focus on CGI background as I think the two departments should be completely separate. Issue here is the same as I see so much in porn... 'Jack of all trades but master of none' that ends up pleasing neither party. Just separate them and have a team or two that perfects VR and a team or two that perfects AR.
  4. I like the idea of Modern relationship turning into a series.

Personally, I have no interest in pass through. But, when I received my Quest 3, I decided to give it another try. And after giving it fair shake. I’ve come to the conclusion that I still have no interest in PT scenes.

My main issue with PT is in order to make the most of it, you must put your body in the same position as the stuntcock so everything matches up. I usually watch my VR porn in one position. Usually seated. Having to constantly change positions during the scene doesn’t appeal to me at all.

I’ve read some comments by pass through fans that they usually only watch one or two positions. And skip the rest of the scene. Or turn off PT when the position doesn’t match to their viewing position. IDK, sounds like a waste to me. Not sure how I’d feel if I was a producer or performer. Knowing portions of my efforts are never watched.

And speaking of performers, I have to believe shooting PT scenes is some of the least sexy scenes you can shoot. VR is already a hard sell for some performers. I gotta believe this isn’t going to help. Instead of growing VR porn, I feel this will have the opposite effect.

Now, I’m not trying rain on anyone’s parade. If you love PT, knock yourself out. Enjoy it! But this announcement doesn’t really excite me about the future of SLR. In fact, quite the opposite. If this is the direction SLR wants to go. I will have to seriously think about whether I want to renew my membership for another year.

This is not a threat. Or me pouting because I’m not getting my way. It’s about not getting enough content that interests me to justify continuing my membership.

Just my $.02

    I'm firmly in "believe it when I see it" territory when it comes to anything involving new concepts/longer scenes/more story focus.

    Every six months there's a post about big sweeping changes but inertia is king in the porn industry. It's far too easy to fall back on old habits. Plenty of things have been promised before and then quickly forgotten.

      This is actually a really interesting point imo. Female performers in the past have quit VR porn because it itself is hard to shoot and a bad experience for the talent when you have to do everything yourself and always having to focus on the camera.
      Just imagine being in a greenscreen room, having to fuck a guy in a green costume with only his dick hanging out, while being lit up by lights and having to pretend its the best sex of your life.
      Probabaly not really attractive for a lot of performers I'd guess.

      I can totally accept trying to increase the production value and people liking these videos but I personally love it when the location / set is good and matches the vibe of the scene and not just a bed in a grey room.

        bacula8630 Dusty I have to believe shooting PT scenes is some of the least sexy scenes you can shoot.

        They can always try it; if they can't pull it off, well, it's their choice to not shoot anymore, not yours or even SLR's. At least it's not the worst setting ever for them. 'Glory hole,' for instance, existed a long time before and is way worse than AR/VR from an actress's perspective.

        1. Hair. This is what in part makes the hotties hot. Especially long hair that flows down their backs. Why do the performers move it to the front when they are in reverse cowgirl and then move it to the back when they are in cowgirl. Try to mix it up please.

        2. Heels. These things accentuate a woman's legs. Please ask the performers to leave them on sometimes, instead of kicking them off pretty much straight away 5 mins into the scene. I know some people have a foot fetish and Im good with that but again like point 1. It would be good to mix it up a bit

        3. Passthrough. The non PT brigade need to leave PT the fuck alone with their stupid opinions. it's fine as it is with multiple positions. Nobody except you gives a toss about where your dick is when the positions change. Get over it. Most people who watch pass through have the common sense to sometimes switch off pass through for scenes that aren't conducive to pass through. I like doggy style, I don't care whether it is in PT or non PT. I just like a woman's ass.

        4. Passthrough part 2 - all major studios are pretty much now in copycat mode. POVR and RealJam are exploring this right now.

        5. I am looking forward to Female POV especially if it is in the format of BGG. One thing I miss is the fact I don't get to see the hotties ass bouncing on the cock in cowgirl. Would be great from the POV of another hottie and then they can swap positions. Hotttttt!!!!!!

        6. What BigTittyLicker said. If we are getting serious about comments and forum feedback, one of the biggest ask is ebony women and thick women.

        7. Stan Short and Alex Mack were cool.

          Agreed. I certainly don't expect every scene for the woman to keep the heels on but as it is now then for some reason or another in porn heels are off within minutes. It would be great if we could get more scenes where the heels stays on for longer.

          Agreed but I would add mature women (older milfs) to that mix. Especially in PTs - for example Reagan Foxx, Larkin Love, Lexi Luna, Penny Barber, Cory Chase, Dreanna Dream and I could go on as the list is long.

            Absolutely. It's great seeing how the curves of these women have filled out over the years. Mandy Muse was a babe when she was younger but sex on legs for me now a days.

            Dusty Just imagine being in a greenscreen room, having to fuck a guy in a green costume with only his dick hanging out, while being lit up by lights and having to pretend its the best sex of your life.

            You made me actually LOL when I read this and I started to try to imagine that. Being the guy doesn't sound much better. I think you just ruined VR porn for me. 😉

            This.

            petermc the "default anal scenes" was a huge joke. I don't think they even had any more than during their golden era from 2020. Hell, they don't even have 1 single anal scenes for their beloved PT brand. Here is to hoping these new changes are not the complete death of anal scenes.

              This hits home. Was a sub for WankzVR in 2018 when a new producer (called Tofu?) vowed to shake things up and introduce more creativity by posting something similar to this thread. He did OK for a few months... now look at the current state of Wankz/MilfVR scenes, almost all of them 40-50 mins, vanilla, boring scenes.

                Please consider making Non POV passthrough.
                Having people fuck in your own room/bed is hot and add to the voyeur kick. Maybe you could encourage other producers who do more non pov to try pt.

                  ...yeah, this would help with the PT issue of floating cock. The best PT for me so far is watching a show in my living room, getting a lap dance, etc. I'd have no issue with watching a sex scene, girl on girl preferably. Then the poor performers don't have to act to a camera, or dance around on a stunt cock, they can interact with each other, and be a bit more relaxed.

                  Also, the point about different positions needs to be discussed in PT:

                  • Clearly, the most immersion breaking points so far in PT are floating cock and having girls warped by disjointed perspectives. Both of these are mitigated by being in EXACTLY the same position as the male actor.

                  • Most people don't want to have to change position on the fly (doubly so if they've got interactives working).

                  • It therefore makes sense to shoot shorter PT scenes with just a single position, and add the position the male actor is assuming in the title (reclined, standing, seated, kneeling), so when the consumer is choosing videos, they can aim for the one they want. Or just metadata it.

                  Point being, keep PT simple. Short, sweet, keep the immersion. A dance. A fuck. Stop trying to shoot 45 min roleplay scenes. Concentrate the goodness. Make it more accessible.

                  And then you can concentrate the role-play goodness on the VR side of the studio. People are literally crying out for more, tearing up their subscriptions, etc. SLR knows how to foster good production, long scenes, immersive role-play. It's what i love most about SLRO's. Let that goodness shine by removing it from PT. Keep PT simple till the tech has evolved to compensate for all it's issues.

                  [TL;DR] Keep PT simple till it evolves...
