| Pros: |
- An interesting, hardcore site that features models I've never seen and some older Euro models who I thought were retired.
- Updates weekly. A mention here on navigation since they have separate categories and it can make updates a little confusion. There are new "videos" added weekly though.
- By my count, there's 212 videos as of 10/26/2017.
- Download speeds are very good which was an initial concern, but I am downloading at 80% of max speed.
- And since it has come up before, the videos are downloadable and have options from 144p to 1080p.
- The content is quite unique and might be the biggest pro/selling point, will further this quite a bit in the bottom line.
- Subtitles on the scenes I've watched. There's also the setting to make the site's text in English.
- There's pictures and stills that are downloadable, but this will be in the cons too. |
| Cons: |
- I hate to make this con since I can see they are trying to make things more interesting, but the different channels are confusing. Most sites that have "channels" have different content on them than what's on the main site. Channels here are, "Sex", "Casting", "Hints and Tips", "Documentaries", huh? Those are all porn scenes. A+ for effort, it's unique, but that's going to confuse a lot of people. Seems like Sex Art did something similar.
- The photos and stills, I think pictures would be a major plus on a site like this and they have picture sets with each video, but some have 4 photos in them. Some have 20. Some have 30. The stills are what the word says, screen captures from the videos.
- Last and this is a personal preference one, the women are Italian, European and they, in general, fit in that category of "hard" looking. The best example I've ever known of this look is Mya Diamond. I personally like it. But some won't. |
| Bottom Line: |
I want to start by saying I've seen La Sublime XXX's webmaster asking about new reviews and want to say, I paid for my membership. I won't, however, let that alter my score as I'm going to be as fair as possible since they do seem to be genuine about trying to make a great site.
That's the thing, it's a great site. But there's several "buts". I find the models to be very attractive, but I tend to like models who don't look like they just stepped out of their 18th birthday party. Even the younger models on this site look more like women than say teens. Think Eve Angel when she was 18-19, she was a woman not a teen, at least not by porn standards.
The navigation and how to move about the content is easy to use, very clean, simplistic design, but if you go into "channels", you're going to wonder what in the heck is going on. I could be wrong, but based on looking at each "channel" it looks like they've stopped some of them which is a good idea. One is Backstage, one is Interviews, maybe the funniest is "Hints and Tips". Those are not bad at all. They have one of a woman showing how to squirt. They have one of a woman showing how to give a handjob. That's interesting and unique too. I think maybe Vivid used to do those, but haven't seen anyone doing that in awhile. I would keep those updating. I'm interested to see how many things there actually are! Then they have "Reviews" which is models testing and reviewing sex toys. That's interesting too. They have what looks like a one-shot 7 episode documentary with Priscilla Salerno, who I think is a very attractive model.
Where I think those become confusing is they are included in the regular updates/videos. They also have a "Best of" channel that updates in the regular updates/videos. For me, a one month member, I don't know if those are scenes that were once released just as a regular "video" then re-released as a "best of" and counted as an update? That's why I think the channel part is confusing overall. I counted the scenes the way I would on any site, multiplying the number of columns of updates by how many scenes are in a row. And do know that Interviews, Backstage, are included in those updates. Really, just typing that out made my head hurt.
I don't think they should stop the How To, Best of, but I do think they should stop tagging them as different from Sex Scenes.
The reason I went through all of that is by my count, there's just a little over 200 scenes on the whole site. If they disagree and have a different number, then my number is off because of the multiple unneeded tags/channels.
Moving on to the content: There's content here that I think members would if nothing else, find interesting. By interesting, it could mean sexy, it could mean sensual, it could mean humorous and so on. I'll give an example of a scene I watched earlier. The female model seems completely unimpressed by the male model and you have to know this happens in all porn, but they capture it and have her talking about it. It's bad enough that she's telling the guy to finger her because she's not even wet. By the end of the scene, she's talking about how he was much better than she expected and was making jokes about taking him home with her. There's a realness there. I have family that speak Italian, so I can understand most of it and there's English subtitles. Which is the really strong point to this site. For one of the first times ever, we have non-English speaking porn that has very clear English subtitles. It adds personality to the "foreign" women that we don't usually get to see or should say hear. And don't overlook those "how to" videos, the woman talking and explaining the steps, actually adds an excellent tease/erotic value to those scenes.
A few overall complaints before the technical parts:
The photo sets have to be bigger. Photo collectors are going to be very disappointed when there's 4 pictures from one scene.
Considering there's only one update per week, don't bring those interviews/backstage back, not if they're going to count as an update.
Outside of those, it's a great site. There's around 212 videos. Again, if the number is off, I'm just going from the videos link to count them. There's not a lot of backstage/interviews, maybe 15-20 combined. And while there's women here who I do know, like Simony Diamond, the vast majority are women I've never heard of. That's a big draw for me.
There is a "categories" section, so since I know we have anal lovers, there's around 60 scenes with anal.
The videos are downloadable up to 1080p, I download the 720p and they are very clear, I would go as far as saying excellent clarity. The files are not small. The 720p are right at 5000 bitrate. The 1080p are at 8000 bitrate.
I would recommend it to those who like Italian women especially and for those who like hardcore, but would like to see a little creativity thrown in too. I'll be back in about 6 months. Add more pictures and I'd bump it up to 90. |
