Not sure if these are good changes... :unsure:

Will have to see how it plays out, but that narration style... explaining what I should be seeing in renders... bleh.

As for the posing. Those minor details can make a game stand out from others. Doesn't need to be after every sentence... but showing the mouth open when someone is talking, closed when they're listening. Facial expression changes. Sometimes hand gestures... make it feel more authentic. Having a static render over 20 lines of dialogue is boring.

But again, will have to see what it looks like...
On the money, friend. Those little things are huge. Case in point--I remember playing Leap of Faith and while the MC is speaking with someone in the hospital room, the patient was in the background messing around with stuff around the hospital bed. It brought a sense of realism and frivolity to the scene that really helped sell the story. I've ran into a few VNs along the way that use excessive amounts of static renders, but still pull off a halfway decent story. But that's the exception, not the rule.

Those tiny little touches definitely help. Way better than straight on camera view where the mouth might open and close when they talk to MC.

I think he made speeches like this about being more consistent like at least 3 times in the past. He is totally right that no one should believe him until he actually shows that he can walk the walk.

To clarify, im not gonna cut renders down so much that you can’t see their mouths opening and closing. I’m just gonna be sure not to overdo it with tons of pointless ones like slight eyebrow raises. In the grand scheme of things it does save a tremendous amount of time.

And you will still be seeing what is being described in the renders lol. I am simply having my friend help to cut down on time spent writing and not posing/rendering. It’s a win win for me. All I was saying is expect less renders that don’t matter, so I can focus on what does matter. Which is the action, the setup, the atmosphere of the renders. Not just characters talking, but emotion and so on. Basically, I want to focus more on composition and less on the basics.

In terms of the writing I was just warning everyone it’ll be more detailed as it’s not my writing so much anymore. Believe me, I’ve read through the entirety of the script. It is beyond what I could have envisioned prior to seeing it. And I hate reading. So for me to love it, I’m excited to see how it’s received.

I bought this game on steam, would have at least expected another update by now....
Supported before that on Patreon as well, I like the game but the gaps between updates makes this really dissapointing and me losing interest in the game.

I updated in September? And I’m about to update. The update from September is live on Steam.

Lets say we start it off by beating expectations and actually releasing when I said I would, towards the end of January this month. It's gonna be huge.

Let's see whether it is just a lie.

I’m working tirelessly to do so! I’ve responded to another comment on discord asking about progress, and I’ve stated that the only issue I’m running into is rendering time bleeding over to the next day so I have to pause the queue to continue posing the last major scenes with the neighbors. With them being major lewd scenes, a lot of effort goes into the many poses required. Anyhow, I’m still going at it with all I’ve got and I’ll be giving everyone an update on progress tonight around 11PM PST
