DPC has written that he really likes his long animation of EP9 and wants to do more of it in the future. The problem is that DPC's animations have gotten better and better in terms of detail as BaDIK has developed. Zoey's facial animation at the end of EP8 is great.

However, creating - and I don't mean rendering - such details takes a long time and requires a high level of concentration. DPC will probably work at 30 FPS. DPC will likely use Daz3D's built-in animation tool and several other animation tools.
Right and all those details take a lot of time to render and rendering takes even longer then the work to make the image. And from what I understand which isn't much, the engine Daz use's to render while its good it is slower then the engine Blender uses to render

Maybe DPC also renders with Blender. There is a script that allows an export from Daz3D to Blender.

yeah mid november is the most realistic scenario at this point...

DPC just has a plan before hand for every episode and what he needs to tell in those... doing only that the episodes might not be that big, during development he is just adding more and more stuff, most of the time "side-content" and ideas he is getting during the process and the episodes are growing bigger and bigger because of that... but he never "cuts" things out. That ends in bigger episodes every time and longer development times too. I think he has kind of an OCD about that, he has an idea, and nothing stops him to add it into the episode, if its mean we have to wait longer, so be it...

Sometimes its a little frustrating to know that the development time for each episode will take longer and longer... but, the outcome is just amazing all the time... iam sure its the same with this one.

So yeah... ill stick to mid-late november release.
Well on the bright side, it seems like he's still has a burning passion for the game and has a lot of fun with it. Which is great.

He has good reason to be obsessed with this game, as it has the potential to set him up for life. In a professional sense, it can make his dreams come true in terms of what he wants to create in the future.

Who is Marion? There's been a few theories regarding Lynette and her links to the Royces. But we know DPC hides clues in plain sight with double meanings. The first line from Lynette's diary: "I got this from Marion... but I don't need to tell you about her because you've already met her.". Obviously Lynette means that she's already written about Marion in her previous diaries, but what if it also means Fuckface (or the player in cutscenes not involving Fuckface) has met Marion too?
I'm not sure I'm following. Are you saying that it's some kind of fourth-wall break? I can't remember whether DPC has done that before.

If that was the case it would have to be an older woman, and someone the MC has seen, without meeting/interacting with her. No one comes to mind:unsure:. There is that (unamed?) female teacher who asks Jade about signing a card for Cathy, and she's also present a Tybalt's presentation, but I don't remember the MC seeing her.
