I don't think you get the point or you're trying to miss it on purpose. Doing it in a game that is the size of Sarah is just extra work, she has two or three expressions and the hentai scenes change very little besides the animations, doing it in a game that is the size of Fleeting Iris is not the type of shit an indie dev should do in an engine as bad as RPG Maker.Aka not worth the work. Shrug, means the devs doing that must be insane, i do respect them for that insanity through . (fun fact i didn't even like Sarah but i remember it because how clean the picture folder was).
Also just to make sure you don't misunderstand again, by size I mean hours of active gameplay, number of hentai scenes, lines of dialogue et all. Base Ayame by itself has 45 different expression combinations, then she has full tans and partial tans and netherhair and 60+ different costumes, that's why doing it for this game is insane, for a game the size of Sarah is something completely doable. There's very few 2D games not to say any 2D games that you can compare to Fleeting Iris in that regard. Not trying to fanboy here, just facts.
"Then you have those turds where to fix some bugs the patch is the size of the game itself. " Can you guess why is that? I'll explain:
Option 1) You compress your game files and your game accesses them as it needs them, you have less files cluttered in the computer (shorter install and uninstall times) and you take less disk space overall. However you now have the issue where if you want to patch one of the compressed files you have to redownload and overwrite the whole compressed file.
Option 2) You don't compress your game, your install and uninstall takes far more time, you can substitute almost file by file whenever you need to patch, since there's no compression the game takes much more disk space, at a certain point two to three times as much as it would take compressed.
Each has pros and cons but for obvious reasons console games usually pick the first method to save disk size and not to create clutter.
