I think so as well. But from the pricing I looked, one month of 10 hours per day would be like 1000 dollars. That's not that much. Considering how powerful those computers are I think he could render a whole update in a month, month and a half at most. If we consider he could render at night on his computer as well, in parallel with the render farms...

Would really love to know if anyone asked him about render farms.
She won't tell the truth. Or come up with a fantasy story about render farms)))

Hello guys, need your opinion!
We all know that the main problem of the game is a huge amount of renders per each event, because of that one update with one event takes about 4 months to produce.
So I decided to make an experiment. I've downloaded CGs from the last 0.190 update, reduced the amount of images from 414 to 160 and uploaded on Mega: Mega
So I need your opinion. Which is better: 414 images that took 4 months to produce, or 160 images which could be possibly rendered only in 1,5 months?
Put (y) if you'd choose 160 images version with only 1,5 months of development!
Put :ROFLMAO: if you prefer 414 images version with 4 months of development!
Put :love: if you want to see even smaller amount of renders to make updates even faster!
The last Ellie event was 140 renders. Don't know how long it took, but it's still one of my favourite events of the game.
100 renders in a week ? Please show us how :KEK:
Just look at Free Pass. The dev of that game (at least up until recently) was regularly putting out updates at the rate of 20 renders per day. Updates were coming out regularly every 3 weeks or so.

L&P wrote that most of the time is spent not on rendering the scene, but on creating the scene.
This is what I would have expected as well. But if that is the case, from the 400+ renders, at least 100 are the same scene different angles, maybe even more. And a lot are almost same scene but very few changes and a different angle as well.
So if L&P spends 2 months creating 200 different scenes, I think there's a problem there. That means 3 scenes created per day...

Someone talented should just fork this game, could even reuse some of the official renders and just make an alternative timeline that spice things up a little. Easier way to make money than starting your own game from scratch if you ask me. For example, Pixil's fan game was really good in terms of render quality but he completely abandoned the story and just went straight to the fucking. Just branch off the story a little, don't go completely in the opposite direction by making the characters do uncharacteristic things.

He needs to learn how to tie his shoe laces properly :KEK: then we can talk about making games.

Most people think that this is easy, like you said with all the tutorials out there of course you can do it, but it will suck, no matter how hard you try. Because you need experience and TIME to make a game look and feel good
You should know that this developer was still learning Daz while making this game.
Including what he asks and learns from people on this site and this forum.

Some one can make something, like this developer if they do it like this developer.
He is not Zeus.

While others ran casinos or became teachers, Liam learned architectural design. That's all.

Not everyone needs to be a baker to taste and appreciate bread.




I am not dismissing game designers or game developers.

I mean to say that just as being a game developer is a valuable profession, someone shouldn't criticize others for cannot doing game development, because they're engaged in other worthwhile work.

I don't remember why I felt this way, but a long time ago I felt like Dylan and Liam were the same person.

If you play the game, you'll see that Liam in the past was either more proactive or more passive than he is now, and so was Sofia, but now everything has changed. (It became normal)

As for Part 1, Liam and Dylan were similar in many ways.
Sophia and Ellie also were similar in some ways (at the time), but Liam and Dylan were more so.


I remembered.
It was because of the way they spoke, their hostility toward each other, their tastes, their hobbies, etc.

The problem is not with rendering, but rather the slow progression of the plot :FacePalm:

After casino shower sex with Liam was PD11 (i.e. seven days after). So Dylan has to wait till PD20 to have sex (in the shower…)!!!

Sadly, someone calculated (predicted) the day and it is PD 27 (in game day 32).

I'm thinking the day will be similar, if not exact.

And let me one more thing: Sam's day, which I like, is more later than Dylan's day.
