Not exactly the lack of sex. There is a reason for anybody to take so long, even ICSTOR said that his game burns him out easily. But in this case, the amount of time mathmatically doesn't respect a realistic timespan given the time space between each update. Due to that, the reasoning why i ask if anybody asked is just there are to much speculation, i dont even get triggered by the delay as others do, but is he not watching the time that has passed and it'll take?No, no we don't, and that's a big part of the problem.
Any character(s) in a VN that get events dedicated to them when they aren't an endgame LI, or even an important side-piece, is a complete waste of time and resources, in my opinion. So what if these characters push Sophia towards being more "filthy" by saying dirty things or touching her in a certain way, if they're not characters she's going to end up with then they're entirely superfluous. Any needed Filthy points can easily be generated elsewhere with characters that actually matter to the endgame plot and L&P needs to wake up and realise this.
I haven't yet but I've been considering posting something in the Community section on Patreon about it. Not so much about the slow progress towards sex, but about all the characters, branches, etc, that are slowing things down too much.
I get the frustration with regards to the lack of sex with characters whose name isn't Liam, but at the same time I get why it's taking so long because Sophia isn't meant to be one of those box-standard characters in a VN that, despite feeling conflicted, gives in to her desires easily. The point is to show how seemingly random events and occurrences are pushing her towards this in a more believable way thus making the sex more meaningful when it does happen.
If the events will be more and more bigger and one event will take 2 months, then one game day will be created in 2 years, i.e. another 30 years for game end? I doubt that I will physically live to see this moment, and the developer?"
"
If this vote goes through and people say yes, get ready for him either to not go through with it because it "messes up its creative/artistic vision" or for one event to turn into 2 months of work
If people say no to this, they can start preparing for an abandoned game down the line.
Also 380 renders for 1 scene? Im sure half of them would be enough. As always, every update is a new record in nr of renders and also a new record of slow pacing the game.
Some people lives thousands years like vampire but we are poor human dont have many month for wait to just watch touching and teasingFew people....ahahahaha....i love Humor....
Dear list and passion, I request you to not worry about the post of few people they don't represent your whole fan community. Do your best and take your time, the story line is perfect and go with the flow.
he can always pick this game fanart artist to become his assistantno question he has beautiful renders and I am anxious in seeing the next part of the story for Sophia and how she progresses down the dirty path.
but dev has a very thin skin and fragile ego. he is taking away valuable time he could be spending on development and instead responding to people on the internet trying to change their mind lol.
if his patrons are the ones giving him this shit then i understand; but if he’s making that sort of post to respond to what people on F95 are saying about him (instead of what he and his supporters are telling him) then he has deeper and bigger issues.
10k-15k images in 3 months? it might be possible in high-end Nvidia graphic card machines, like 11MB Nvidia graphic cards and maybe even 8MB but yeah, the 11MB cost over a thousand pound, so like you, I doubt they are being truthful.Rendering can take quite a long time, obviously dependant on your computer specs.
I'm developing a game and I'm having to setup several scenes and queue them up for rendering overnight.
One reviewer commented that they could have rendered 10,000-15,000 images in the time it takes L&P to create an update. If I left my machine rendering constantly for 24x7 it would take almost a year to produce that amount. That's purely average render time, no setup or post work included in the figure. And since I'm at the beginning of the process, I am still on quite simple renders with two-three characters in a scene.
it was l & p who said he would hire someone, then change and said he would try to find someone. now he will change again saying that he does not want to share his money.ugh, regarding this hiring people and whether L & P should or shouldn't.
"they shouldn't if they don't want to and they should if they do want to"
Just cause you want updates quicker doesn't mean L & P should hire people, it just means you are being impatient.
Some people (myself included) enjoy working by themselves more than working with others.
Hiring people has been stated by L&ATMP oh his patreon page as a consequence of the increasing of incoming.. At that times he was not against the idea... the incoming increase is reached...some times ago he changed is minds but it is licit suspect that the creative process is not the real reason of his minds changes...Most probably more money in the pocket is his intention...this can also be understanded ascentaining how the development progress is inversely proportional to the incoming increase. Dev consider himself as a genius, the god of the Erotic VNsugh, regarding this hiring people and whether L & P should or shouldn't.

Yeap ... moreover (s)he promised to do it in one of her patreon's goal.he can always pick this game fanart artist to become his assistant
Who hurt you?people say things, then change there mind, its a thing we all do.
As for wanting more money, we all WANT more money, that is just normal and certainly is no reason to complain about.
no matter what y'all say, it's up to L & P and not you. That really should be obvious and the end of it, but there will probably be another 50 pages of the same complaint in this thread.
if you don't like it, then stop watching this thread and stop playing AWAM then.
all I ever see in here are people complaining over nothing, but yet you see the same people constantly posting and complaining in here about a VN they apparently don't like, it's weird.
I stopped liking summertime saga and posted about it, even got banned (rightfully) for a week from the SS thread as a result of the heated discussion I got in. Guess what I did after the week ban? nothing, I stopped watching the thread and never commented since because I got better things to do and there a bunch of other VN's for me to play.
