Updated BigTable™ with the recent informations.

10 Days. 1 week and 3 days. 240 hours. 14 400 minutes. 864 000 seconds; that's the last waiting.
Before we have the usual flow of lurker and spam on release, it was a pleasure to read you all these 7 months brothers.
Please note that all numbers in the table/post are set as the 19 November 2021.
  • Episode 8 was made in 30 weeks; almost 7 months. With the biggest added content with +5GB.
  • Compared to the last two episodes that's an off-delay of almost 7 weeks (≈50 days).
  • I added a new Ratio value: (Renders+Animations)/Development Time:
    • EP8 is actually considered average in renders (19.7 vs 19.8), but leader in animations (1.70 vs 1.15).
    • We can clearly see these new GPUs since EP7, kicking the animations ratio into 1.62 vs 0.96 average. +69% :BootyTime:
    • Episode 7 was the most efficient/generous, when Episode 4 had the less rendering made per days.
  • Be sure to check again AchedCroissant post with all EP8 Previews. Hype!

Okay guys... Now, WILL there be a Halloween party this episode?
Also, seeing as how it's a week before American Thanksgiving, wouldn't it be cool if DPC added a little thanksgiving dinner at the old folks home? I think that would be dope.

Well, Yay, or Hurray. On the other hand based on the banner, I guess we can give up our Halloween Party dreams, which is Bummer. :rolleyes:

I'm backing the fuck down on my prediction that there will be a Halloween party because of that release banner :KEK: I'd expect a lot more hype for the party in the advertising from DPC which I haven't seen. Still a 50/50 though probs.

I'd love to see a thanksgiving dinner at the old folks home, or anywhere really. We've seen parties in the game before with a bunch of characters but I'd like to see more occasions where everyone is being friendly and bonding instead of trying to get drunk/high/laid. Not that there's anything wrong with that :KappaPride:

Testers and proofreader are working very hard, and thus the wait for episode 8 is almost over.

The Patreon release dates for Episode 8 - Crossroads are as follows:

+$25 tiers: Friday, November 19

+$10 tiers: Monday, November 22

$5 tier: Friday, December 3 (Limited time, and only if you pledged at least $15 total during 2021.)

The estimated download size is 19.5 GB. So, be sure that you have at least 40 GB of disk space to extract the files.

Love

Dr PinkCake
so we will get this and AWAM in the same week?....

Man, I hate when release day is given with so much waiting time :/ I prefer to have the announcement three days before or so.

Longest. Week. Ever.

A lot of drama (as usual) , no cliffhanger
Didn't DPC mentioned there would be a big decision and a huge "damnnnn" moment?
I think he will finish season 2 with a huge bang and something to talk about for months.

Knowing he is a bit of a perfectionist and each episode him raising the bar... this will be one to talk about during christmass diner ;)

Bet alot of open questions from Shaz will be answered this episode. He can't just let so many of us hanging on a thread for another 6/7 months.

A big decision like in chapter 4. There is a lot talking about after every chapter. But no cliffhanger like in chapter 6 for example


Of course according to me
