One thing I want to mention... If the update has 250 renders, and the progress bar is at 95% created scenes, meaning the remaining 5% make for 12,5 renders? And that's what is taking him another 2+ weeks? Well, including photoshop+translation/programming. Still, doesn't that make it kinda obvious how the progress bars are completely useless and not representing at all the current progression? Or am I missing something..

~4 weeks for 95%, and ~2 weeks for 5% + photoshop/translation? lol

The progress seems to stagnate a bit. It's because the end part of the scene with Dylan and Amber takes a little bit more time and is a little bit more extensive than expected.

Content of 0.165: Over 250 renders and 9 pages of text. No animation this time.

Release time span: Approx between 6th and 12th of July.
my guess is that

he is not satisfied with his own script
and is making changes at the end

at start the speed was really good and now when its about to finish the update its slow as snail just because update is 250+ renders
it dosent make sense

Yeah, we'll see if it really is "250+", or more like 120 with an arm or leg raised here and there. :LOL:
Now now, L&P has been doing this all along.
I sense where this is going, you said the other day that L&P has slowed down(which is obvious) and some other member also showed a data about his sluggish speed which is actually a fair criticism. Now that we know that the update has over 250 renders, which means his speed has increased a little bit and that also means there will be some duplicated renders like Old dog said. But when you make statements like this, it seems like you are desperate to criticize the dev and so you are nitpicking on every move he makes.

But L&P has always done duplicating his renders and altering them a little bit. So my point is, no need to bring this up as it is something new.

WOW 250 renders what a massive update,I wonder how many renders are duplicated.
So now we get 5 minutes play time 'O' the excitement
So much minutes for us? I think that there will be 1 minutes because we don't have Dylan :D :D


It will piss me off because I don’t want to contemplate, let alone see, never mind twiddle my thumbs while we wait for, Ellie and Logan.
And you know what is the big joke? If you wanna Let Logan out.. You must play Dylan route.. :FacePalm: Seriously this scene could be like for Dylan so for Sophie too.

Sorry, but that's not correct. Sure, I tend to be sceptical when it comes to L&P and his updates, but the issue with duplicated renders had been mentioned and pointed out months ago when he's released 0.155+0.160. There had been several people noticing it, here on F95 aswell as on Patreon. The reason was simply because of the huge delay caused by animations back then, L&P's statements and the results we got, which raised some eyebrows as it seemed like the actual unique render count dropped considerably. Some theories have it that it's because he was lying about having someone creating his animations, so reducing his work on unique renders bought more time for him to work on his new addition to the game.

Sure, you can call it nitpicking, but after the constant downward spiral over the years, it's hard to see the positive. You are right, he's slightly faster compared to the previous 3 updates, which I've also mentioned, but he's still slower compared to 0.150 from last year. Let's just hope he can atleast keep this pace for now, because I'm not expecting much in terms of development speed at this point. I'm a pirate for AWAM anyways, so expecting anything might sound a bit entitled, but you get what I mean.

The progress bar doesn't take into account any free time that he might be taking during development either. Unless he announces that he's taking free time, we would have to assume that he bounces between the two.

Where are those people who jinxed it by seeing fast progress in early days... ultimately its always the same :rolleyes:
this speed change dosent make sense
speed should be consistent
daily 5% or whatever
till the update is finished
this update is 250+ renders is such a lame excuse
its either the change in script at the end or
because payment day is july 1st :poop:
