fuccaneer Of course, many of those entrepreneurs suffer from one or more of the above listed faults.

I forgot one:

  • Guys trying to "power-up" the monetization of their big dicks. Probably not universal, but I would imagine that there's more than a bit of "I've got a big dick and that's all I need. Give me your money."

Hi @George, would it be possible to have more close-up missionary in the EU PT scenes? It seems like most of the scenes haven't included it...

    deng09 Yes definitely. I was just not sure, as there were some comments, that it doesn´t make sense in PT. But will include it from next production.
    Thanks for the input! 💪

    rerun119 I think the biggest problem with all VR porn is that the people making it don't watch VR porn ever.

    Bingo. Or at least most of them.

    There are probably serious technical obstacles to this, but I'm surprised shoots don't have an actual VR headset monitoring the camera feed. When you shoot any kind of regular video, you've got monitors on set wired up to the cameras and you check white balance, focus, framing, color, etc. The same should apply here, but I doubt there are any VR cameras that can actually be rigged that way. Maybe they can, who knows. It would at least easily explain any "damn X or Y director/studio never screws up like this, what happened?"

    What is more unacceptable is when the same studios consistently have the same exact issues with their videos, for weeks or months on end. How long was LustReality/VRSexperts's white balance off before they fixed it (tbf at least they fixed it)? How do they consistently manage to have the director yapping in the released scene? Sometimes less than 10 seconds into it...just yell "places" and start over dude, wtf.

    As for content not present here, how many years has it been that VirtualTaboo's had their head in the sand about:

    1. The wrong lens profile correction being applied to their footage (or none)
    2. Incorrect stitching
    3. Bad scale on top of it

    I am assuming the same crew shoots some of TmwVRnet's content, it has the same exact issues 😂

    Part of me is thankful that it's normal for JAV to credit the director. I always know who to avoid, and who releases well-framed, properly positioned, immersive videos. It seems like the best we've got for American and European porn (other than when SLR credits the production team for their Originals 👍️ thank you) is silently noticing the same sets - and likely the same crew - doing jobs for multiple studios:

    Set - Content Here - Content Elsewhere

    1. That beige-ish room with the cathedral ceiling and the skylights. Round ottoman in the middle. Bed in a nook with a lower ceiling off to the side. SinsVR, RealJamVR - 18VR/BaDoinkVR
    2. That "office" with the grey walls, faux brick wall, and black leather couch - SinsVR, RJVR - 18VR/BDVR/VRCosplayX
    3. the room with the floor to ceiling windows and that white couch you always think she's going to fall off of - SinsVR, SexBabesVR - I've only seen it in an 18VR scene other than that
    4. lol the yellow LethalHardcoreVR house - LHVR, RJVR, PornCorn, probably more
    5. "the DeepInSex set" (sometimes with white sheets on that L-shaped couch) - seen it in a few RealJam videos recently

    If I were a betting man I'd bet 1-3 were always shot by the same crew 😏 I'm just not sure who's actually shooting it.

      NewSubscruber The SinsVR owner/director (won't name him) shoots all the scenes with EU girls for: SinsVR, BadoinkVR, 18VR, VRCosplayX, RealJamVR, PornCornVR, plus some others in the past like VRPFilms

      Stoney Curtis (LHVR owner/director) shoots for: LHVR, RealJamVR, and PornCornVR

      Jerry Kovac (DeepInSex owner/director and performer, LHVR performer) shoots for: DeepInSex, RealJamVR, and PornCornVR

        Hairsational I wonder if SinsVR guy is also VRPlayful. A lot of their recent stuff particularly looks like him and they’re now re-releasing his stuff “remastered” under the VRPlayful banner. They are also coming out with BS made up excuses for changing their content to more vanilla stuff and that’s him all over.

          petermc I think it's an ex-employee of SinsVR behind VRPlayful

            • Edited

            Hairsational @petermc I think so too.
            One thing I'm pretty sure of is that the VRPlayful guys were also shooting for VRHush and FuckPassVR (same models, same sets, same performers, same style with stand up mish) and stopped shooting for them ever since VRPlayful is "bigger". Notice how VRHush or FuckpassVR don't release any scenes with european pornstars anymore (and notice how VRHush and FuckPassVR don't have anal scenes for ages now because only their EU producer/VRPlayful were shooting anal for the last 2 years).
            Oh and I also think VRPlayful shot these 2 new Billie Starr scenes for "BS-Productions", this looks like the same sets/positions/style/performers too.
            I wouldn't be surprised that VRPlayful stopped shooting for others and just shoot for their own brand now that they have their own channel here, which explains these remasters they probably have the rights.

            George The last few PT's have epic parts and are overall greatly improved, but the chair is even lower now it feels like? Is this the new one?

            Both the american and euro-shot ones are real low to the ground in seated position and it is one of the hardest thing to correct with settings, as you have to adjust until the image gets distorted to get the the height up to "normal". I'm in a regular recliner and the chairs you're in looks like low beach-chairs or something heightwise.

              Which video do you mean? There might be some older releases, but it´s been a while I am using a regular height chair. Ping me a height of your seat, if you want, and we can compare 🙂

              My bad - your new ones does indeed have a normal height chair 🙂👌 (Except for the "Sweetest Experience" as far as I could tell, but the "sitting position" there might be more of a leaned back one?) When I went back and checked now all the low-seated scenes were from mr. Strong it seems.

              All the scenes--dick is still too far away from me. Not sure if that's how its filmed or if I'm doing something wrong but I have to zoom in quite a bit to get it to be near realistic for PT scenes. Height seems different on all the videos and not consistent but it's usually not too far off and adjustable, but the zoom its absurd how much I have to distort the image. Especially for reverse cowgirl, it seems like I would have to be 9 feet tall or something. I've tried using horizontal offset but that helps only for minor adjustment these are way too far.

                Hurto11 You do check the scenes quickly without passthrough, to see the position the male actor is in and mimic that with your own body? That's the way PT should be experienced. The only problem I have with recent PT's from George/Manny that oftentimes the male actor is leaning back quite a bit. It's a bit uncomfortable to mimic that while seated. Other than that the positioning actually seems fine to me, I barely need to digitally adjust anything.

                George/Manny improved a lot. I think the main area where they still lack a bit compared to Alex Nash, who now clearly is world's PT king (I think he's now even surpassed SimSenseMedia, his PT vids at arporn.com don't stand up to the latest ones from Alex Nash), is the image quality. Not sure how he does it, I don't know much about all that stuff but I do believe he does the lighting of the scene better, which makes a difference. But regardless, image quality is THE area where George/Manny still can make some improvements. Their recent scenes are already WAY better than before, but still, there's room for improvement.

                  Yup and that's what I mean. I have to zoom in A LOT to get the male body to line up with mine in most cases. And even if I can get that I also have to adjust height.
