VN Ren'Py Where It All Began [S1 Ch.4 Fix 1 Steam] [Oceanlab]

[BobTheDuck]

You ascertain this from where? Not being funny but I'm not on the discord often (despite people thinking I'm some rabid fanboy) and try my best to never use Steam, so be interesting to know wherte this information comes from. Confirmed or rumpour/opinion?

As for updates, you're guess is as good as anyones but I seriously doubt it, Ocean would lose what little goodwill from his fans he has left if he did that (and he doesn't have that much left, expecially from the WIAB fans who are pissed that SG gets all Ocean's attention).

That loss of goodwill would also include myself.

That seems about right though - 2 years, 4 chapters (4 0.5 chapters of the old counting) at ~2300 renders each. That's consistent with the pace Ocean's delivered for SG. 1 Season was supposed to have 10 chapters (5 in the old way of counting, so we're currently at a comparable 6?), so he's need to add 4 updates to steam once it's up. I'd imagine the first upload with with Ch3.5/7 (old vs new way of counting), and then he's estimating on his current speed rather than promising faster than a realistic timeline.

If it's approximately a 2 a year (every 6 months) that would be fine and expected I agree. If it drags out to 1 a year again...he will never get back the goodwill currently being afforded by the fans.

As I've said a few times here (and there), now, going forward over the next 12 months is how he should and will be judged now he has no excuses anymore.

I think what we're seeing is just being cautious of public statements. It's Ocean, so I don't hold my breath, he loves to over deliver in render count later than hoped. But it is good to see he's aiming for consistency so far.

 

[Maviarab]

t's Ocean, so I don't hold my breath

Lol...ne'er a truer word spoken Bob.

But it is good to see he's aiming for consistency so far.

Aye, this is what he needs for a few updates on both VN's.

I promised myself not to talk about wiab until the log or steam realese, but this almost counts as a log, right?

Your math, while reasonable doesn't close... the first three chapters count as three chapters even in the new way of naming them... getting to 10 from here still implies another 7 chapters, and that's not going to happen in just 2 years. Let's take SG as an example... chapter 1-2-3-3.5-4-4.5 and 5 for season one... here comes the catch, do these count as 10? If so you still owe me 3 Ocean!!!!!!

Internally Ocean's been counting the reworks as the 0.5 in SG. They don't make sense in WiaB in any regard, as it was rebuilt rather than reworked (semantics to show the difference I know). It's really a question of how to define a chapter. 2100+ renders in 6 months breaks down to 350+ a month for each game, so 700+ a month total, keeping both developed at the same pace as before regardless of the nomenclature used to describe them. If he's hoping for 8-10k of renders, he's saying business as original. I personally think the chapters are pretty arbitrary in SG S1 anyway, at least in WiaB they feel slightly clearer. I'm going to think of the as just the WIP updates until WiaB S1 drops, I don't need to keep count in that way.

If you want to look for the DEV log, and just do what the guy said there.
I'm not going to look for it because of laziness, but I think there will be a new dev log on the 5th, an new update,only Ocean knows

I think variety is the spice of life, so I like to see Leia's areolas nice and large. The second render with Miru seems to indicate that they're heading back to pick some stuff up and take care of business. I can't wait for the next update.

Which means more....Daphne <3

I agree and I'm excited too. Miru may not be that excited though. Haha.

Miru beign jealous has it's logic to some extent but if she is allowed to do porn why the mc can't have sex with other women???

Because one is with his blessing, the other he gave explicit agreement not to.

Not difficult to understand. If they swing, Daphne is off-limits by agreement.

Well yes but... We will see about that becouse Daphne is hot as fuck!

Exactly, she won't be off-limits in a few of my saves

 

[demonking69:(]

You can propose to your current girlfriend to have an open relationship and also encourage her to do porn ( not content yet but seeds are planted ). If you refuse to have sex with your girlfriend multiple times she will let a dude grope her.

hey so which is the 2nd game poster in your reply ....the 2nd poster game??? can you tell me

They look like weird pancake to me. Or if someone decides to put stickers as areola and called it a day.

 

[mommysboiii]

You nailed most of my thoughts.

1. SG is a silly teen drama romance (boring)
2. WiaB is more adult-oriented with a more interesting story
3. Wiab has sex scenes while SG does not
4. Katie, Miru, Daphne, Leia, Zoey, Dana, etc.
5. You probably won't agree with this one, but I like the sharing/swinging/EnTeeArrr aspect
6. SG MC has limp dick and is pathetic, while Willie wants sum fuk

ant the most important part

WIAB has N-T-R

Bella needs to get blacked asap such a waste of cheracter wish bella was in WIAB perfect romance build up/emotional bonding for ntr..... good love story would be perfect with drama of WIAB

 

[mommysboiii]

Look at BaDIK for example...there is a reason why devs keep using a particular setting...

nah I prefer WIAB it could be the game of thrones/red dead redemption 2 of VN in the future (way more drama ,intrigues,REAL RIVALS that are actually scary/competition, difficult decisions ,good and bad endings...)

were this typical harem/school games are like zero story /soap tv shows that are just boring with zero plot nothing unexpected happens and you cant lose only good endings ...
