honestly im starting to feel like lilith is slowly drifting away from ero games(at least in the sense of visual novels) and leaning more into games like action taimanin and rpgx recently they even seem to be working on a new thing for mobile. do you think its a matter of time before they step out of eroge genre all together? or maybe one day theyll start working on things like yukikaze 3 and other games like maybe a towako sequel?

I don't know if they'll stop completely, but it's definitely tilting away from pornography. If they're prepared to run three concurrent gacha games, with two of them being "safe for work", then it's a fair bet that what they've been doing has been successful. And remember, RPG may not be as popular as the RPGX version, but it did enable the series to have widespread public advertising. Being able to openly advertise, and put themselves in popular app stores without needing to censor things (with the exception of when the characters have to wear their iBurqas), is a lot more helpful to them than just circulating information among eroge and DMM circles.

I don't see them doing many (or, any) VNs for as long as RPGX remains successful. It's taking up all of their creative resources. They would need to invest their profits in hiring more writers, and then figure out how to balance the workloads of their top artists between VN projects and gacha. And based on the last eight years, I don't see that happening.
