Mr Pinks reviews Reality Kings for Sugarcookie. The naughties saw many porn trends hit fever pitch but none seemed to worm its way into the fabric of porn as we know it more than the flimsy concept of “reality.” Reality Kings were determined to both make its porn seem more realistic and convincing, and to bend the predictable everyday occurrences into erotic adventures worth remembering.
Creators of the legendary MILF Hunter, Monster Curves, Cum Fiesta, and numerous other hardcore thrill-rides, Reality Kings keeps one foot firmly planted in the everyday, the other foot stepping in porno professionalism and fantasy situations.
On such sites as Teens Love Huge Cocks, Moms Lick Teens, First Time Auditions, and Street Blowjobs, Reality Kings details all manner of situations ticking those titular boxes. Women are seduced on city streets to get down in cars.
Lesbian neighbors throw caution to the wind and invade each others’ homes and panties. Bikini-clad babes frolick on a boat! There’s even a selection of European sites here to lend their more sensual and elegant smut, both intimate and unhinged, from basic hookups to insane orgies. Reality Kings is nothing if not varied.
Models
Most of the women appearing in Reality Kings episodes hail from (or at least work in) the United States, but there’s also a strong contingent of European sluts and other hot foreign bodies to keep things interesting.
Sites with African American, Latina, Asian, mature, and teenage focuses guide your selection while a detailed model roster gives great previews and info on each woman. Recently appearing starlets Vienna Black, Darcie Dolce, Sierra Nicole, and Bailey Brooke all help ensure Reality Kings keeps current and doesn’t simply retread the same ground over and over.
A mix of natural and enhanced bodies can be found and models can be gussied up in glammy outfits or dressed down in casual clothes, workout gear, or swimwear for powerful POV shoots and third-person romps. The European models and sites tend to carry a different mood to the Americans with the latter going for a more vivacious, performative delivery.
Content
Going for a variety of shooting styles depending on the premise of the site in question, Reality Kings shoots off-the-cuff amateurish sex-tape style scenes, on-set gangbangs, public pickups, sunny poolside fondling, costumed and uniformed lunacy, and classy lingerie-heavy romantic encounters.
In both streams and downloads, videos reach 1080p at their best with 720p HD, SD, and mobile-ready options also available. Photo galleries tend to look a little glossier than videos at Reality Kings, and they hit 900px online, 1920px in zipped sets.
A common complaint among RK members is that the network’s POV scenes lose much of the woman’s body in the frame, choosing between her face or hips. Some members also find some of the male talent objectionable, J Mac and Ramon Nomar in particular, but there’s always another scene with another fella if you’re similarly picky in that department.
Usability
A very well built network that could easily become unmanageable due to its size, Reality Kings offers few obstacles to the average browser. Detailed search and browse tools keep your between-scene time to a minimum, a thorough model index with detailed profiles provides solid info on your favorite girls and guys, and both content categories and keyword tags and in steady use, making easy, quick jumps to similar scenes and sex acts a breeze.
Video options are easily sufficient with ample download formats on offer. Photos, though, could use on online high-res viewing option instead of forcing detail-oriented folks into zip downloads. Some less welcome graphics also appear all over Reality Kings: still and moving ads pimping other porn sites and networks, and live webcam feeds that are rarely worth your time.
Most of what fills your screen, by a wide margin, is Reality Kings’ own porn: lush, colorful hardcore that heaps attention on the finest up-and-coming and legendary pornstars of all shapes and sizes. Whether you seek a skinny athletic anal queen or a chubby blonde amateur girls, she’s easily found through Reality Kings’ navigation system.
Longevity
Reality Kings is a huge network offering 46 websites and a combined archive of more than 11,000 scenes. Now, not all sites remain active; less than half failed to deliver updates so far this year. However, with two daily updates, there’s more than enough activity at Reality Kings to keep you very busy indeed. New sites hitting contemporary porn trends are created quite often, too, bringing fresh premises to fans every year.
Value
Reality Kings has for decades made huge contributions to the world of online porn. Although strong challengers have risen every year since it started, RK has carved out a niche (or ten) in which it consistently performs strongly, as well as any other studio out there.
Some occasional dud updates may annoy the pickier members but, popular as ever, Reality Kings seems to deliver a damn good product for a very reasonable price with discounts almost always available. To this reviewer, Reality Kings has, alongside Bang Bros and Brazzers, always been one of the big three networks of online porn. If you ask me, nothing much has changed.
