So when you post things like this, don't be surprised when I get offended.
I'm totally fine with "I don't like it", I just don't understand "I see no reason to watch a VR scene because it does NOT add any value IMO." but then post that it is crap. How do you know when you refuse to watch it. |
Well my initial general comments were not directed at you Stefan but I can see why this is a sensitive topic.
But I must say that there is no way, regardless of how closely you work with a client, to know if the scenes you produce for them are "profitable" or not. Unless they open their books for you and even then....
(And I do not think questioning the source of porn production money is a radical thing. LOL)
The only reason I even mention this aspect of the Adult Industry is because so many throw numbers around and try to judge a market based on this or that company's actions. In other words, we are discussing an un-regulated worldwide "industry" and there's plenty of room for both legitimate companies and shenanigans.
So when a smaller company is trying to decide whether or not to go into VR (for example) they may actually be trying to compete in an over-inflated, make believe bubble of a market (just like 3D).
But hey, if companies are making money with VR than congrats! I'm just saying not every company will be shooting VR for many years, if ever.
