Myself being someone who doesn't typically check in on the website or forums all that much, it's a splash page, not where I would direct someone. It seems like it's just temporary until the game is ready for kickstarter, where it will be overhauled to actually give info on the game. But that is a later problem, no point putting gameplay on the main page when the build is still this early.
As for the waifu side of the website, the thing I would be more pissed about is that if i was just discovering Em8er, the skins on the main page are already unavailable to me. Just keep the character art to what is available to everyone, not the subscription perks. Everyone deserves waifus and husbandos.
