I don't think gay porn is in a bad state. There's just so much choice nowadays it can be overwhelming.
Absolutely disagree with this. As far as I'm concerned, there's almost zero choice when it comes to today's porn because all I see are models that look borderline anorexic or guys that pretend to be macho and when they open their mouths it's a tragedy, not even mentioning the actual fuck scene. I just want a balanced guy that represents my kind of fantasy and that is slowly fading away, imo. This is also why I have to find classic videos because there were so many choices way back then. Why else a company like CF is re-releasing old scenes?
Something else that bothers the fuck outta me is the huge amount of bareback scenes. Like I said, I do like them, but that's when I find them once in a while, today is almost everything bareback and because of that, every single scene is half assed and boring as hell. Same thing goes for condom scenes too sometimes, but it just happens that bareback scenes/studios are the majority so it's more noticeable.
Maybe you are getting bored of gay porn. As it was said before, there's so much choice nowadays. For example Bromo or Deviant otter, most of those videos are bareback ok, but you can still find some genuineness and vibrant scenes. Compared to before there is a lack of directing which removed the fantasy you might talked about… When I watch a porn with Jake Deckard, Eric Evans or Christian rock I agree gay porn has changed in many way, but to my mind we can still see this kind of scenes when we look for it.
