Pros: |
- One of my most highly rated networks on a consistent basis, not anymore.
- 53 sites unless some of those are just samples, Lil' Humpers shows up in my membership but only has 6 scenes on it.
- Some of the best mainstream porn on the internet.
- One of the top networks when it comes to diversity in their models, white, Asian, Latina, black, mixed, even transsexuals.
- Good navigation, you skip from site to site without having to sign in and their search engine shows all of the model's content, so if you find a model you like on one of their sites, you click her name and you'll see her other content.
- Almost always can be joined for under $10.
- Updates twice a day across the network.
- 8,399 models as of 1/8/2020. |
Cons: |
- You have to pay for downloads and the downloads cost more than the membership. Membership was $9.95, downloads are $14.95. It's not terrible to pay $25 for a site but it's a change that I don't like and that's a subjective opinion. I joined this site for years and had downloads included in the price. I think I paid $17.95 back then. Why not just offer the download package on the join screen?
- Their billing processor is the most frustrating biller I have dealt with. They try to offer you "discounts" that are more expensive than what you're paying for it. It used to be an instant, automated cancellation system.
- I will be taking on the long, frustrating task of adding up how many of their sites still update. Here's the number 9 of 53 sites are updating. |
Bottom Line: |
Reality Kings, for me, was once the best of the American networks. They had a huge amount of diversity in their models. They had creative, even fun sites (Money Talks, CFNM Secret, Happy Tugs), a whole collection of Latina sites, several Asian sites, black girl sites, now it looks like they've turned to RK Prime to release most of their new content on and it looks just like the porn on every other porn site.
I reviewed Brazzers not too long ago and was similarly harsh on it even though at that time, Brazzers had downloads including in their membership, I've heard they are now charging for downloads too.
I paid for a month of downloads at Reality Kings as they had some scenes I wanted to add to my collection but can't say I'll feel the need to do it again. The newer scenes I did download have lost all the fun and sexiness of their old scenes.
Their numbers are very impressive at 8,399 models and over 14,000 scenes but I have a lot of those scenes from 2015 and back. It seems like my favorite sites: 8th St. Latinas, MILF Hunter, Money Talks, CFNM Secret, Happy Tugs, In the VIP and Black Girlfriends, all stopped updating in the 2017-2018 span.
If anyone is curious, without the downloads package you can't even download photos or screencaps. All you can do is stream the videos.
It just feels like this upsell system gets me on the wrong foot. I found a few scenes I really liked but it really feels like this is my last time coming to Reality Kings. I felt the same way about Brazzers even with downloads included.
I'm sure there is a market for streaming only porn but I'm not part of it.
I won't go completely against it and say no one should join it. I think if you're new to it and don't mind paying the $25 price for the membership and downloads it's worth a month or two. There was a time when they shooting some of the best, even most creative porn.
I won't let them off the hook for the bullshit cancellation process. I chatted with an agent for nearly 15 minutes. When I would turn down a new "great offer" he would ask me to hold on. He would be gone for 3-4 minutes at a time. All he had to do was say, "Okay, got you cancelled" and I wouldn't have been happy about having to chat to cancel but at least would have appreciated them not making it a hassle.
Instead, I'm left with 15-20 new, good scenes that cost $25 and a lot of frustration and hassle. Hopefully, they will one day at least consider making the downloads an option for when you're joining and put in an automated cancellation system. There, talked myself into it. I won't be back until those things get fixed. The score isn't terrible because I think it still has value especially to a newer user, it would be about 10 points lower for me. |
