To me, it’s more of an aesthetic difference. SC seems to be doing sketches more, similar to NDS. And I think it’s devaluing overall. I always loved the bits at the beginning of a SC video that was just the two guys hanging out. It built a sense of comradery and intimacy between the two before the scene started. You got to see their sense of chemistry outside of a sexual setting, and that helped cement the idea that they genuinely wanted to fuck each other’s brains out.
I personally don’t see too much difference between someone like Shaw and someone like, idk, Austin Wolf. But I do think that SC had a good habit of finding these boy next door types or muscular himbos that were entertaining to get to know. And now, they seem more interested in OF models and sketches. It just seems like they’re not seeing their own worth as a company. And that really sucks.
