It's easier to project yourself on an unknown face, and easier still on a blank one. I’d say say not so much because it allows a disconnect as it, on the contrary, allows connection.

Does knowing the people (or at least the characters) involved allow us to becoming more emotionally invested? Does this make it a more sexually arousing experience, or simply a more moving one? For me personally, I would say facelessness - not knowing the people involved - is more arousing, because it allows for a disconnect in the viewer.

The thought of that store, okay, just the picture of that store, is making me drool... Sadly enough, I’d be really interested to see that porn :-).

I too have the power to google :-). My point is, does it exist/does it have a presence in <i>this</i> community? Aside from solo google adventures, I've never come across it; no one mentions it in talking about video games and sex. Is that because text-based porn (and I do think there's strong difference between reading text and interacting through text) is considered inferior and less desirable? Also, what is the psychology behind wanting to read about/see famous characters go at it, as opposed to the psychology of say watching unknown (but controlled by real people) WoW characters go at it. q, I get that video game slash exists.

Of course video game slash exists. Just google "video game slash". It's been around for YEARS. http://slashfanfiction.com/categories.php?catid=174&parentcatid=174 Same way video game dojinshi exists (mmmm, SC Ivy with male parts...). http://www.vgbabes.com As for "Who needs machinima when you can write your porn?", well, who needs SL when you have LambdaMOO? Who needs Graphical Adventures when you have Interactive Fiction? Oh, come on. Of course video game slash exists. Just google “video game slash”. It’s been around for YEARS.
