Do you think there will ever be true AAA porn games?

It's been said, but if it's an "only porn" porn game, I don't think people would find the market to be that succesful. Especially with all the new tensions between payment providers and others. But if it's a game with porn... tones? Sure, I see it being developed in the future sometimes. Like. BG3 and Cyberpunk are already skirting some of the lines, it wouldn't be that weird to see something more intense in 5 years or more

at the moment probably too niche. not sure most people think of porn being in a game form. like @jone1 said if games keep pushing the limits then maybe. was about 40 years ago video games we pushed aside and had small following at conventions alongside porn as a waste of time and almost taboo, now both have bigger audiences and more open followings as well as their own award shows. we were approaching an age of free expression, think like the free love of the 60s but banks put a stall on that

Years from now, possibly. I can't rule out any possibility in this world tbh, I have seen enough to believe anything can happen.

I hope not, if this is AAA, lot of people were coming to see and law, censure...

The idea has potential but we are better off not getting triple A games of that sort, of course content of that quality would be great. The other people have already stated why this won't happen though.

I think no, the censorship it's a bit big nowadays, and they are not that mainstream, I believe they will be huge productions, maybe a little bigger that the usual studio depending on a patreon, but not truly AAA games with millions of dollars implied

No, a AAA porn game will never happen because astronomical budgets of AAA and strict censorship laws (of which everyone here is familiar) make the financial risk impossible. Modern AAA games cost hundreds of millions of dollars to produce and market, requiring millions of sales just to break even. On top of that, I believe that explicit adult games are banned outright on PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch, and are heavily restricted or geo-blocked on Steam. Without console distribution, the ability to run mainstream advertising campaigns, and an already niche audience, a high-budget adult game is completely financially unviable.
Of course, that doesn't mean the mainstream modding of a AAA game isn't a viable path forward. Lots of interesting mods out there for New Vegas, Cyberpunk 2077, etc.

God, such a different time. The early days of the video game industry were fucking wild.

There are various levels of porn. While it is unlikely that we'll get hardcore porn in a top tier game (not counting the modded versions, of course), softcore porn is already there. Check out Lunar Eclipse on Steam which contains full, explicit nudity - optional, of course, but genuinely built into the game.
If you count the modded versions, Skyrim has hardcore sex mods. Many other games have nude mods, but they mostly modify or remove clothing. There are a few that give male characters an erect penis, but AFAIK only Skyrim has mods with full on sex ( and maybe a few other games like Sims and Fallout - I haven't played those ).

I doubt a mainstream AAA publisher like EA would ever finance this, even if they thought it might be profitable they wouldn't want the reputation. But I could see a major pornography publisher like Aylo (MindGeek) deciding to finance a porn game with a budget comparable to AAA, similar to how Pirates was published by Adam & Eve and had a million dollar budget.

And if it was Japan it would be worthless for 2 reasons - it would be:
1. cartoony
2. censored

No AAA is just too expensive to justify being made.

There should be no purely pornographic AAA games

Well, if today a rich donor was to invest millions in h game, given the final result would be convincing enough, it would surely be at loss - but at the same time i would surely make quite a noise, adepts of censorship giving free advertisement in mainstream media.
Now it's a tricky question in a way because if said scenario doesn't happen, the video game industry will probably change enough on many aspects so the "AAA" thing of nowadays will be a curiosity of the past in, let's say, 15, 20 years? maybe more maybe less i don't know, so many factors are to be taken into account
The sure thing is porn and video games are on the rise, or at least stable, so logically it should happen one day or another
Also be warned that the period we are living now might be considered as a golden age in the future in h games were to land in bad hands
