all games have unsuccessful renders, we can even pretend it's realistic, that it's those random pictures where even a beautiful girl looks like a witch

but holy crap this is the most important scene in Jill's story so far, a scene that is constantly remembered. it is a grave fault that it is such a poor render and was neither discarded before, nor replaced after.
This is all so true. We suspend our disbelief and accept these girls as beautiful within the context of the game, even though they'd look like freaks in the real world, but when they look like freaks in their own context, that's an issue.

It's not like there aren't beautiful shots of Jill throughout the game, so such an important shot should have been one of her best ever, not her Michael Jackson impersonation! :eek:

I’ve just assumed that the occasional homeliness of Jill was an intentional decision. She is the least sexually experienced LI, and a bit of a dry dork, and her features sorta reflect that.

To me she’s meant to be that girl that you’re not initially head over heels for at first sight. The body is attractive, but her facial features, the way she laughs or something about her just puts you off. Then as you get to know her, you end up liking her personality so much that it just clicks into a profound crush.

One episode of BaD has more (and better) content than 5 episodes of other VNs. Say those VNs have 3 months between updates, BaD is still faster and better than them even at a yearly update schedule.
I don't think anybody is doubting whether DPC is making enough content to justify the time between releases. (Those that are doubting or calling DPC milking are idiots.) But what most would prefer to see is chopping that up into multiple releases. Let's be real. The time between releases is getting so long that a lot of people don't remember exactly what their various choices were before. Literally in every release so far, there were multiple logical break points that could be used to chop up a big release into 2 or more smaller releases with next to no additional work.

one episode every 8-9 months already means that you will often have only one episode a year... and the next one being in late October/November already it is highly likely that even in 2023 we will have only one episode

then whether or not the wait is worth it we will see when we play the next chapter and the chapters to come
One episode a year means you've been waiting 12 months. If the wait is less than a year, then it is not considered "one per year". Yes, I'm a crazy techie. :LOL:

what's the difference between $30 and $40 patreon level in pictures?

Are the $40 patreon level gets custom pictures, or just preview pictures?

If you round up nine months it makes a year... I am an engineer :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :p:cool:

there is no real difference, they can both be special render or preview, and portray an LI or an SG

I made my 2nd Jill save today and in the end of ep.8 it automatically chose Jill but there was also pictures of Maya. What's up with that?

Also I was just thinking that does Neil have some sort of memory loss/brain disease? Or more like, COULD he get something like Alzheimer's? I could see DPC doing that, and the game taking a bit "darker path" at some point. (like AL)

Now am kinda curious what choices people made for their neutral characters.

You must have told Derek you still had feelings for Maya at the prep's party.

Neil's "memory issues" has been blown out of proportion by the theorists. He just sucks at telling shit and he fucks up the story, I don't think he has any form of dementia...

If you don't remember your choices, the recap at the beginning fills you in on the things that matter. For every other game I have no idea where the story even is at even after 3 months, so 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, as long as there's a decent recap (which I've only seen in BaDIK), it doesn't really matter.


That's more like... PR person or something. An engineer would go for 4+ decimal points precision, then casually mix up imperial and SI units without noticing.
the fourth decimal place in the reality of 99% of engineers does not exist at all, not even on the design:oops: :ROFLMAO:
I always go for 6 significant figures since that's the most a single precision float can store, and it's SI all the way! :geek:

Until proven otherwise to me Neil has syphilis, which would explain both the memory problems and the fixation on protected sex :unsure:

Do you reject JosyMaya/they reject you but tell Derek you still have feelings for Maya?

Why would anyone choose to comfort Steve other than to manipulated their affinity (i.e. not a genuine action)? I'd rather piss on that cunt! :mad:
Because, to quote the classic, "I may be an asshole but not 100% a dick" (which is what the MC says more or less to, when you pick that action)

It's obvious dude is really hurting, picking on him in such situation would be a Dawe move.
