Agree with a lot of what has been said above.
I will just add the same comments I've probably done a dozen times before.
No - an implant does not feel exactly like a natural erection. How could it? It's not created by blood. It's artificial.
But for being artificial, and for being an implant used to replace something as delicate and sensitive as an erection - it works damn good!
7 years after implant, I can't say anything else than that I am amazed how well it works, how good it feels.
No, not the exact same feeling as a natural erection, but very, very good.
The difference is like you mention in your post. That pulsating feeling is not there. Of course it isn't, because what is pulsating is blood, and now there is no blood filling up your dick. It's saline. And you push it into your dick by a manual pump.
But as someone said above - in the past I got erect when I got horny (well, at least after heavy doses of pills), now I get horny when I get erect...
That means I believe those two events - getting hard and getting horny - are correlated both ways. One will result in the other, it works both ways.
In our case, being implanted, getting horny is not going to make us hard - we will have to manually fix that - but getting hard (i.e. pumping up) will mostly make us horny.
Getting hard triggers something.
As for orgasm - it's better. As someone said, I used to start getting soft the moment I started to ejaculate. Now I can just keep going and really make full use of my orgasm. And in terms of sensation and feeling of the orgasm, there is no difference.
Will you feel fake?
I think that's up to you. I have said several times that if you are someone who is mentally in that place, who is completely stuck in a mental state of depression over not being a man (defined as being able to get and stay hard naturally), not having a "real" dick, being cursed with bad luck, etc, etc - well then you might possibly remain in that state with an implant as well.
For those who literally seek something to be depressed about - there will always be something.
With my implant, even though it works fantastically well and has given me the best sex life I have ever had in my whole life, I can still of course curse my bad luck. Why did this happen to me? Why was I born with the VL curse? Why could I not just have a normal dick like most other guys do?
What a pathetic freak am I, not being able to get hard normally, having to rely on a piece of plastic in my dick which I need to pump up? Women will think I am pathetic. Just an impotent loser with a fake dick.
But - I don't. I look at it realistically. I was born with this shit. It happened. I needed to fix it. Pills stopped working good enough, and actually never really worked good enough. So I dealt with it, moved on to the best solution available. It works damn well, and I choose to like it.
I think so much of the satisfaction with an implant (or lack thereof) comes from our mental approach, how we choose to look at it.
Am I an impotent freak with a fake dick?
Or am I a man who dealt with his shit and now actually has some powers and abilities that other men don't?
Do I hide around in the bushes, worrying about what women will think of my implant, or do I stand tall and aim to give her the fuck of her life?
And finally - an implant should not be compared to what we had when things were working great. It should be compared to what we have now. If what we have now is impotence and a shitty or non-existing sex life, then with a very high probability, and implant will improve that situation substantially. Always remember that.
But - that being said - I think most guys who do get implanted are surprised, or thankful, that the implant actually does work so well. As I said, it is there to replace something that is probably the most delicate and sensitive function in our bodies. Erection. It has to work well enough to preserve feeling good enough to reach orgasm. Sensitive and delicate stuff. And it delivers. It does replace all that good enough. Amazing.
