I'm not a Patreon so I don't really have any right to speak.
Oh stop that ''I don't have right to speak because im not patreon'' stuff.. You can say whatever the shit you want.

We are on the PIRATE forum, those that tell us that we don't have right to comment on specific parts of the game because we're not paying are fooling themselves and are just the biggest hypocrites. :rolleyes:

I'm dreading the day the update actually is done and the couple of hours between being made available and uploaded here there will be 1000 comments on this thread all wondering where it is.
It will be full of nonsense comments like the one i quoted below. :p
This game sure is hot garbage in the current form. Not surprised Patron money is running out.

I'm glad we have to wait some additional development time for an undercooked story about the irrelevant neighbour girls, people barely give a shit about. This truly is the content all of us have been craving for all these months.

Just offer someone $100 a week to do it. Hell, I would do it. ICSTOR, hit me up, I need the money.
Model set up can take 16 hours for the first time. If you are trying to customize your models. After that, you never need to touch it again. Using an animation system to do minor adjustments for 1 frame for every frame in a single frame doesn't take that long. I've been using daz for awhile now and know where to cut corners and know where to put time in. the dick pushing into the back of a characters brain doesn't matter since you never see it. the mouth and lips are 100% of the focus at that point. You start with that bought asset, and it does maybe 90% of the work. Angling a camera to hide collision issues becomes a super useful trick. It doesn't matter if your hand clips through the character if you can use a convincing angle. Using the altered focal points is also a great trick to use. If you set the focal point down, it will blur collision with objects. As for lighting, a simple method to use is reduce the Lumens amount and alter the colour to a light orange/yellow. reduce the intensity, looks like a dusk or dawn setting. Most of the scenes he uses are pre-bought assets that come with built in lights that are simple to alter. I don't support him, or anyone because I am poorer than poor, but, if I was going to, I would need more than the same 50 assets I have seen in every trending game in the trending section. I would much rather give to someone making something like Summertime saga just because the guys draws everything. And even then, I would like to know the details of how he does it so I can voice an opinion how he can do it better since I would be Paying him.

On an aside, try disabling 2 gpus and offloading your rendering to GPU cuda rendering. I don't remember 100%, but the thing I heard was that if you have multiple GPU, it will only use the lowest one settings to do anything. I am probably off on that, but worth a try.
1. You have some knowledge, but it's not applicable to how ICSTOR apparently models his characters, lights his scenes or poses his animations. I have explained this more than once and tried to show you the difference between cutting corners and doing the full job as he does, which requires more setup time and horsepower.

2. You don't yet fully understand how GPU rendering works with some of these modern rendering engines, apparently. For example, I have 3x Titan X(Pascal) GPUs and my scaling for Octane rendering is very near 3x1 GPU, for Iray it's slightly less efficient but still very good. My rendering times are, indeed, less than a third of what they used to be under a single GTX-970.

3. Hit up ICSTOR's Discord and offer your services, see what he thinks - nobody is stopping you.

Is anyone excited about neighbours? I don't know why it is matters right now for icstor. Such a waste of time imo.
I am... tentatively. I'm neutral-to-meh on Brother-Sister and Mother-Son incest stuff (and very "no thanks" on father-daughter stuff) but I really like sister-sister and mother-daughter stuff. I'd prefer a game with a female protagonist where you seduce your sister and/or mom but a game with a male protagonist where you have a three-way and/or spy on some incestuous F/F stuff also really appeals to me. And based on the one interaction we've had with the neighbors so far, it's highly likely that's what we're going to be getting. So yeah, I'm excited for that.

On the other hand, we already had Zuri and Suri, which was a three-way with twin sisters who... didn't touch or play with each other at all, which was lame. If we don't get to see the neighbors play with each other and it's 100% protagonist-focused 3P stuff, I'll be very disappointed. At least make them kiss, ICSTOR. So my excitement is tentative.

All that said, I'll agree that it was a dumb idea to delay the update even further just to include this content. Scope creep always comes back to bite you in the ass.

Not every update is amazing for Man of the House, but at least the developers communicate with the players. Normally there is an update every 2 weeks, but if that changes the devs let us know. That's how you should communicate. Here it seems like there's just silence.

This is gonna be the biggest, and in my opinion the best update this game will ever have, and everyone deserves to play it ASAP after this LONG wait. There will be no significant delay on this episode releasing, and I can promise you that right now.




Okay hold up. "Everyone" doesn't deserve shit. If ICSTOR releases it to his Patrons and the patrons collectively decide not to share it then anyone who deserves anything will have gotten it. We on this forum rely on the generosity of paying patrons to share the game with us and they do so because they want to, not because anyone here deserves anything. Of course this game is getting shared here pronto after release, there's no real concern that it won't happen, but don't fall into the trap of assuming you're entitled to it. It's disrespectful to the dev who continues to make the game despite our piracy and disrespectful to the donors on this site who donate the games out of their free will for us freeloaders to play.
