Yeah, doesn't make any sense to me either. In a previous post, L&P was talking about his animator doing the creation work while his second computer is taking care of the rendering. After that, there's supposedly more editing work to be done. This new post, though, is shifting away from this previous statement, making it sound like L&P himself is doing much of the work himself. He could totally be learning how to use Blender in his free time or whatever, but there's absolutely no reason to act like he had to invest so much time learning these programs when there's apparently a pro doing all the creation work. The goalpoasts are moving once again to fit the nonsense that is happening, and I don't believe for a second that he's got a helper (the third one within ~2 months according to L&P, by the way).
Why does he need to be so familiar with the new program?
He needs to know the program, has the assets and the rendering machine but somehow it's some unknown developer who does not want any recognition for his work that is doing the animations?
And then Lust deletes posts calling out the fact this should not take 4 months to do 4 animations?
Something isn't right.
I said it before, but how is this a case of "very first real animations" and "any start isn't simple" when he's supposedly got this super skilled animator doing it for him? And, like you mentioned in your post here, L&P is deliberately trying to avoid talking about his animator, giving him any credit, simply telling us who he is. If there's someone doing the animation work, L&P could shut everyone up by just saying who the guy is. There's not that many highly skilled artists creating lewd animations for VN's or standalone videos for their Patreon or whatever platform they're on, which is the only way he could find and contact these people. It's not like they are growing on trees. I've been asking himself in one of my posts a couple pages ago, but obviously all he's responding to is the uproar for the deletion of a guys's post on his Patreon page, exposing the untruth about the insane amounts of time it takes to create 4 simple animations according to L&P and his "explanations" regarding this, trying to get out of the hole he's digged himself with the most ridiculous excuse.
"I didn't delete his post! Patreon has this thing where posts are vanishing for no reason! Happened to me before! It's total coincidence that this is happening to a post exposing the animation disaster! I'm the victim here :'(!"
This is really just sad at this point.
And judging by his Patreon post you quoted, we'll likely be getting a bunch more animations for PD13, dragging it out for possibly another 2 years considering how long it took him to create 4 animations. There's to hope that it'll be going faster in the future, but if we know one thing about L&P and the development of AWAM, it's that the development cycles only go one way. Slower, slower, and slower! Just awesome!
