Most devs do 4k and then downscale for size. How is this even a discussion?
How? well, when more than one person doesn't see eye to eye with each other, they have a discussion about it.

If you mean to say, why is there a discussion happening over this topic, then the answer is

Is Sonya going to be a LI and why. She seems to be the odd man out. All love interest and potential partners have a connection to the MC. If it be directly or through someone he knows, But Sonya just popped up and boom seems to have fallen for the MC. Is this just a person thrown into the mix just to do it. She just seems out of place in the story.

For a long time, Sonya was the game's cover girl. And one of the approved LIs, I think that hasn't changed.

That's part of her image in the game: that she's not strongly connected to anyone, lonely, aloof, humble, of a different religion.
I think when her time comes, there will be some event that will better connect her and the main character.

I don't really understand Nadya's place in the game, except for the banana jokes.

That makes sense just hope it doesn't end up with fights with her family that would just be too much just my opinion. Now Nadia is the undateable no man is good enough for her. That was said when she is first introduced. Plus she has some backstory regarding family. Nika dating or being close friends to her would make sense.

Says the guy:

- who can't, or wan't to see a difference between 4K, and an AI generated 1024*768 picture.

- who can't, or wan't to see a difference in the amount of memory and specification between RTX 20X0 and RTX 6000 Ada GPU, and he is adamant that the performance difference doesn't matter.

Oh boy! If I had said or written as much BS like you have in the past months, I would have taken a vow of silence a long time ago.
You love to pretend to be an expert, but you can’t answer simple questions. Since you interfered in our conversation, let’s see if you can answer the questions we discussed here or if you’ll screw yourself again.

Question No. 1 In rendering, artists often make pictures in 4k resolution and then reduce the resolution to full HD in order to get rid of noise and make the image cleaner.
What's the point of getting rid of noise if the entire background is blurred like Ocean's?

Question No. 2 Here are 2 identical renders, one was made in 4k resolution and then reduced to full HD. The other one was made in full HD and took 3-4 times less time to create than a 4k render.
Why spend a lot of time creating a 4k render if the difference is not visible when viewing it normally?
And finally, a difficult question.....
Well, if you really are the expert you want to appear to be, then I hope you can determine which render was made in 4k and reduced in resolution, and which was rendered in full HD and why did you come to this conclusion? There is also the option that I lied and inserted 2 identical pictures...
p.s. I'll bet on you screwing up again..... Good luck.

"You're just a genius", you've made yourself look like an idiot once again. Can you tell me why Ocean would render a blurry picture in 4k and then compress it? It’s much easier to immediately render in full HD, and spend 4 times less time on it.
for you an idiot is obviously anyone who has more knowledge than you :LOL:

I don't know what exactly I should imagine under the name blurry picture? if you mean depth of field it's a normal thing. you can find it in movies and photos and basically everywhere

And finally the most fun...
How did you determine that the second image was taken in 4k and then compressed?
I didn't write any secret. many devs are open about how they work on their games. but if you think you know more than everyone else go ask ocean and I swear that if I'm wrong I'll send you $1000 and publicly apologize. the thread is the witness :LOL:

You're just a genius
wow! thanks bro :PogChamp:

Did I mention the preview?
Okay, you asked for the pictures and I gave them to you as proof that he does render in 4k, because the chapter previews are in 4k, which would mean that the game is rendered in 4k.

Although maybe I'm wrong and you can show us these wonderful pictures with improved quality? Because I haven't seen any.
Why did you mention Color Subsampling, do you want to discuss 4:2:0 or 4:2:2?
I mentioned it because you said you cannot see the difference between 4k and 1080p without a 4k monitor. Did you read my post before replying to it?

Guys...just make your life easier and do what you should have done with him after you saw his first post. Makes the thread so much more pleasant.

Less than 200 posts (because half of his posts he's either deleted himself or the mods have), 95% of them whining and arguing with folk far more intelligent than he will ever hope to be.

Don't feed the trolls ;)

Yeah I used to like discord when I used to play mmo's but outside of that it's annoying and feels like a second job to keep up with the servers you are interested especially when there is a decent size community like the Summer's Gone one. So while I may join a server here and there I really only pay attention to it if it it's smaller in scale otherwise way to much work so yeah I dont like discord most of the time either anymore lol.
I have tried to use Discord some time but i can´t understand it, is so confuse to me, and i´m more a console gamer so i have never used Discord to chat with friends.

Just in this (and the WIAB) thread or in total? ;)

197 currently.


Join, mute entire server. Takes 2 clicks, then just check the relevant channel every now and then (or leave the one important channel unmuted so just get alerted to the devs update posts and not get bothered by any other alerts). Also helps to group all the AVN's into one folder so you don't have a massive list down the left hand side.
I prosose to make a bet between all of us (you can´t participate Mav), each one of us say a number of blocked people Maviarab will have to the end of the year, and the person who wins guessing or getting the more near to the number wins, what price? I don´t know, maybe we can convince Mav to give the winner a wildcard in case he ends up one day blocked by Mav, like a protection for the block.

I don't mind D&D, I liked how it worked the first time if we get some Sonya scenes will be even better.
I liked D&D because there weren´t any sex content and i thought that would be a way to see some sex action before get sex in the plot with the LI, but of course i was wrong bacuse we still without sex so, i don´t like it anymore :ROFLMAO:. Nah, just joking, i think is cool have this type of board games inside the game, but i don´t like it when the board game take many time.

That makes sense just hope it doesn't end up with fights with her family that would just be too much just my opinion. Now Nadia is the undateable no man is good enough for her. That was said when she is first introduced. Plus she has some backstory regarding family. Nika dating or being close friends to her would make sense.
I think a "fight" with her family traditions is really interesting to see, they have differents values and those values fight againts the "occidental" view of life, so it could be interesting see that problem, a crash between societies and ways to see the life.

But i undertstand it can be a sensitive topic, but if some game is the perfect one to have this type of sensitives themes is SG.

When playing the incest patch I get to a point when I can not play further, that point is when you are about to tell Nami about your perception. No matter what I answer I can only rollback and not ignore the missing file. For that matter, with the patch several images that are sent by the girls on your phone doesnt show up, instead you have to ignore that you have several missing files and skip through. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thank you in advance
