- First Impression
Voyeurism is…kind of hot. I've never really given it any thought before, but visiting EricDeman.com has opened my eyes, so to speak. Eric Deman boasts the world's foremost library of naked men on video, and…well, it's true. It's like if the Library of Alexandria in Egypt catered to porn. The site houses over 40,000 videos and 92,000 pictures, so…yeah. There's a lot going on here.
- Navigation
The acquiring and posting of all that content must take up a lot of time and as a result, the site design and navigation take a hit. In fact, there doesn't seem to be much of a site design at all. One third of the page is a black column and the other third is a white column. And then links and videos and ads are just kind of thrown onto the page haphazardly and whatever sticks, sticks. As a result, it's really hard to find much of anything. It's like when a kid goes into a candy store: there's so much candy going on everywhere that all kids can really do i stand there, wide-eyed and slack-jawed at all the wonder. The navigation is kind of like that as well. It's difficult to figure out what's what. Luckily, the white column is all recent updates so when in doubt check that. -
- Content
Content delivery is pretty all-encompassing but at the same time limiting. On the black column is a little caveat about what software is required to view videos. The majority of the videos can be downloaded and viewed on Real Player. WMV files can be viewed on Windows Media Player and MOV files on Quicktime. Thoughtfully, Eric Deman offers download links for each of those softwares. It's basically awesome. Where it's limiting, though, is that the 40,000 videos each vary on what kind of file it is. So you might have secret locker room videos that can be viewed on Windows Media Player, but then you've got truckers piscine in the woods to be viewed on Realplayer. If you don't want to download all the different kinds of software to view all of the videos, then you're kind of stuck. Viewing pictures also varies similarly as well. -
- Guys and Sex
With a site like this, it's really difficult to review how hot the guys are, or how hot the content is. I mean, none of these are studio videos; they're all amateur stuff so it's not like I can say "get hotter guys". In instances like this, you have to look past the attractiveness of the guys (though there are some that are quite hot) and the fact that there is little actual sex being had (though there is some) and just…enjoy the nudity. I mean, there's more content here than you can shake a stick at. If, in fact, you were so inclined to shake a stick at online porn content (get the entendre there? Because I didn't until I finished writing the sentence). Honestly. If you watched one video a day every day, it would take over 110 years to watch all of the videos. -
- Value
No bonus content. But remember what I said about 40,000+ videos and 92,000+ pictures? You need more than that? -
- Bottom Line
EricDeman.com is an odd bird. It's not your run of the mill paysite; it's something in and of itself. Honestly, what the site needs is to be streamlined and spruced up. Because it's such an odd genre, it's easy for bad site design and navigation to turn a viewer off. But with the content multitude, there is literally something for everyone here. -
