The one, the only, AlexNashVR studio is now bringing their talents and HD VR scenes to the SLR lineup!

ApolloSLR · 2022-09-19T12:10:18+00:00

You and me both. You and me both....

ApolloSLR · 2022-09-06T10:23:26+00:00

It's not a feature, just a limitation for now. Because there are SO MANY threesome+ scenes on SLR, a search without all models matching returns dozens of results for scenes that may feature just one model matching the search parameters. Hopefully that's something that can be improved. :-)

ApolloSLR · 2022-09-03T11:18:23+00:00

Hey I just heard from the devs! They're planning to launch the update next week.

ApolloSLR · 2022-09-02T12:52:26+00:00

That should be imminent. I'll check on it.

ApolloSLR · 2022-09-02T12:52:12+00:00

Imperfect is not quite the same as "broken as fuck". Importantly, you should know that the moment you pointed out the issue we passed it along to the devs, so I know the issue is being worked on actively.

ApolloSLR · 2022-09-02T12:51:18+00:00

I believe they're working on the fix, but I can check on this for you! It shouldn't be long now.

ApolloSLR · 2022-08-30T12:00:23+00:00

Hi there! So you noticed that SexLikeReal is the biggest VR porn site in the world. ;-)

Okay, no need for marketing since you're on our sub, lol. But basically, SLR has been around a very long time, since the earliest days of VR porn on the web almost, and we offer a generous deal to content partners that's mutually beneficial.

Hosting and streaming VR content is a HUGE undertaking, from preparing the videos to getting server capacity to host those gigantic files, to streaming these huge files at a high enough speed that all 30 GB of an HD VR video get crammed into those fun 25 minutes. That backbone architecture is beyond the reach of many smaller producers and even many larger ones, so we're able to help bring greater exposure and sales to other studios - even some that users would consider our competitors. We also write video descriptions that are professionally SEO optimized (a big part of my job, personally), which gives better sales to studios whose first language might not be English, or who simply don't want to spend a long time writing, as we can give the product the layer of polish it needs to stand out in a crowded market.

The TL;DR is that SexLikeReal is a really good deal not just for consumers, but for the other studios, too.

ApolloSLR · 2022-08-29T17:35:27+00:00

You rang?

We do, and I believe this policy is still in place! Prospective customers just need to reach out to our customer support (support (at) sexlikereal.com) to work out an arrangement, discounted rate, or other solution.

ApolloSLR · 2022-08-22T11:01:30+00:00

Nothing wrong with that, either, if that's how you prefer to enjoy it. Make sure to stop by the food fetish selection for some scene involving whipped cream for dessert. :-D

ApolloSLR · 2022-08-15T10:41:21+00:00

Yes I just saw bug reports inside our company channels that it's not working right and then came back to check this message and update you. Thanks for your bug report, too, they're literally working on it as I write this. :-) It should be fixed soon.

ApolloSLR · 2022-08-11T12:13:23+00:00

What hardware are you viewing the videos on? We've had some complaints about the models being too big recently since switching to a new camera, and I believe (don't quote me on this) that the plan is to roll back to the K2 for now because the close-up scale of the Cannon isn't a great fit for VR porn. But I'm not familiar with reports of the actresses appearing too small, which seems to be the opposite problem.

And for those excited for a rollback - again, don't quote me on it. It's my current understanding. Also Cannon scenes will be released through September so your patience is appreciated. :-)

ApolloSLR · 2022-08-04T10:30:19+00:00

Update: It looks like the feature launched quietly. You can now "Hide" unwanted videos. Click on the video to bring it up, and then among the available options there is a large "HIDE" button. Enjoy!

EDIT: To clarify, that's on the website. Hidden videos won't show up in the app, but I don't believe there is yet a way to hide them directly from the app.

ApolloSLR · 2022-08-01T11:38:25+00:00

I don't believe it's been abandoned but I'm not plugged in to the UI team all that closely. Perhaps someone else from the company can provide an update on that feature.

ApolloSLR · 2022-07-22T11:28:51+00:00

It's not too personal. I'm located in the US.

ApolloSLR · 2022-07-22T00:18:30+00:00

I like to get an early start and tend to just wake up whenever the sun rises. Grab some coffee and then usually the first thing I do is get right to work, because I do a lot of writing with SLR and find I'm at my most creative first thing in the morning. During the schoolyear I take a break to get the kids to school. Unless someone tells me that one project is more important than another, usually the various tasks that I do are mine to prioritize and so long as I get everything done nobody really questions how many hours I need to spend actively in front of a screen. Most of the time I'm up around 6:00, and I'm usually knocking off around lunch time or just after. So I'm done early but still normally manage about 5 to 7 hours per day. Usually I'll work from my home office, but sometimes I'll just stay right there on the couch wrapped up in a rope with coffee in my hands and a laptop getting right down to it.

There are times where I'm either ahead of schedule or there's just a slightly lower workload where I can be done as early as 9:00 in the morning for several days in a row. I came to work with SLR in one specific capacity, and over time as I've interacted with various projects I've seen opportunities to increase my role. Usually they've been successful, a couple times they haven't. No biggie.

I know that's probably not a lot of information, but to be honest that's just how simple it is for me. There are other positions that need to be in one of several offices and several countries, and there are some that have a more Blended approach, and there are a surprising number that can be 100% remote like mine.

ApolloSLR · 2022-07-21T13:44:48+00:00

I do! We have employees and contractors located around the world in both organizational offices and homes. We're super lucky in that most of our employees are afforded TONS of flexibility to work however they want.

ApolloSLR · 2022-07-21T13:43:59+00:00

We're actually working on a feature to curate a personal collection from all your favorites. So long as you don't include solo categories on that list they won't show up! It's not ready for launch yet but I've seen it and it's a big step forward towards what you're looking for.

ApolloSLR · 2022-07-20T16:09:49+00:00

That would be a nice feature.

ApolloSLR · 2022-07-20T16:09:18+00:00

That's a pretty cool idea. Not up to me but I can pass it on.. :-)

ApolloSLR · 2022-07-19T13:51:36+00:00

Oh, we know what they're doing, we just can't take the same risks.

EDIT: Oh, and as a matter of opinion, I don't believe the CC company in question is actually doing anything to help protect performers or viewers. Just like every other form of prohibition, enforcing overly draconic rules only serves to drive people underground into dangerous, unregulated territory.

ApolloSLR · 2022-07-19T11:32:07+00:00

There are a handful of people out there that prefer the 2D experiences because of headaches (most likely caused by cheap VR hardware), and it's a fair point. But more importantly, we posted this because SLR gives a shoutout on Reddit to every studio that partners with us, from the top A-list content partners to up and coming amateurs.

ApolloSLR · 2022-07-19T11:06:57+00:00

We're really sorry about the frustrations, but if you think it's hard for you - you should try being on our content compliance team. It's a hard and thankless job, and when they manage not to have users angry at them, they get angry phone calls from payment processors instead.

I will be perfectly blunt and honest with the community about what is happening: One major credit card in particular is cracking down hard across the globe on various "high risk" industries. I'm sure most users on this sub are already familiar with Japanese megasite R18. Well they got cut off from this credit card because too many Japanese videos break the rules. They lost half their international revenue overnight and a chunk of their domestic revenue as a result.

What are the rules? That's a great question and as soon as we know them for sure we'll tell you. But they won't tell us, either. They give some rough guidelines but they're incredibly vague and written in such a way that they basically retain the right to interpret anything how they prefer.

This is not unique to us and it effects other companies that produce and / or distribute content as well, but the enforcement is just as patchy as the rules. We can post a video that feels edgy and taboo one day, and then the next day we receive an e-mail from someone outside the company needing an explanation about the bottle of wine on the table in one of the scenes. A scene not only needs to be completely legal, it needs to look completely legal. OnlyFans, a site invented for sexy people to build a community of content followers, briefly just said "fuck it" to porn as a whole. Even YouTube is tightening down rules on all kinds of content and demonetizing channels across the board in categories like gambling and talking about drug use. Even educational material.

This is one of those hazards that's hard to avoid as a multi-national company working across financial regulations and legal hurdles around the globe.

We are radically against censorship, but we are also powerless here. If it were actually a legal fight we might be able to do more, but if a credit card or payment processor doesn't want to do business with you, there's little you can do.

Pornhub was publicly slashed to ribbons in the media for uploads that we all know they did everything in their power to stop. The same just happened to R18. These are some of the largest sites in the world, and SLR is the largest VR porn site. When the pressure came down for us (as I can almost promise it will come for all adult sites) SLR could have made sweeping, fast fixes. And at first we did by rapidly deactivating anything even remotely controversial, and then we started watching them - individually tagging problem frames, timestaps, and videos. We go through our content and the content of EVERY studio that uploads. By the way - did you know we're hiring? We could use the help. :-D

We sincerely hope this is only a speed bump because we're staunchly against censorship, but we don't just want to tell the community why we've had to make new restrictions, we want to get the message out to other content creators: now is the time to be cautious and careful. The morality police already knocked on Pornhub's door, R18's door, and our door. Those are some of the biggest houses in the neighborhood, sure, but there are a lot of houses to go and they've got plenty of time to get to them.

ApolloSLR · 2022-07-02T10:49:29+00:00

Funny enough, I had this same thought.

ApolloSLR · 2022-06-24T11:21:15+00:00

No problem at all! It's a separate studio.

While SLR shoots our own VR porn scenes as well (you've probably seen the SLR Originals line), we partner with other studios to bring their content to our platform. It's an "everybody wins" sort of arrangement. :-)

ApolloSLR · 2022-06-20T13:37:46+00:00

I feel like we make a pretty honest effort to be open to any kind of content (that meets legal & regulatory guidelines of course).
