One thing I was wondering about in the past was whether galleries and whatever were gonna carry across the seasons, but I guess they aren't.

But looking at Season 3's reward gallery, it's interesting to see that it's already been set up for the main LIs (even if they weren't featured in the Interlude), plus only three Unknown.

View attachment 2177359

So like in Seasons 1 & 2 there were 7 non-LI galleries (Cammy, Cathy, Nicole, Jade, Quinn, Riona & Sally). So I wonder who these 3 "Unknowns" will be.

I expect one will be Quinn, and if Zoey is gonna be a significant character and not just a cameo in episode 9, surely she will be one. Who would the third be?

If DPC is gonna be a stubborn motherfucker, it could be the Madame. :sick:

But what other character would deserve their own gallery if most of the girls will probably be relegated to the "Mixed" gallery (which already features Quinn and Riona)... :unsure:
DPC released Couples poll for 2D wallpapers on Patreon a long time ago. We have 3 placeholders with one girl couple each.

2D poll  Couples.png

1. Riona + Heather 23
2. Quinn + Camila 8
3. Sarah + Melanie 5,5
4. Karen + Sally 15.25
5. Envy + Lily 48.25

Looking at the last preview, we have a threesome of Envy, Lily and the MC. Sally and Karen are also very close, if I think about the EP7 HOTs party. Heather and Riona are both already standing next to Tommy in EP1 and are standing together again in the last Freeraom event of EP8. After all, those are the winning couples in the poll and we have three placeholders.

You making sound like its a bad thing to have a modded game:FacePalm:, so ep 4 was not 18 scenes but ep 6 had 19 and ep8 had 16 so my point still remains...
I'am sorry Borgia, but it really doesn't. I remember a huge argument here over if the Interlude was a real update or not, while you were on the side of is not a real update. Well, by the same logic most of those 19 scenes are not "real scenes". Because they are not part of the real story and because they have so little content that you can really use them as an argument.
Some scenes of ep8 has more content alone than thoose 11 scenes of ep6.
So, if you really want to picture both the ammount of effort that DPC made in this update or the ammoutn of content we are going to get, the number of scenes is a deceptive meassurement. Instead you should look the number of renders and animations. And man, you know this.

You know, it's hard to understand why this guy is still here. The game is BAD, the developer is BAD, development is too LONG. All I hear from this dude.
Some people just love to complain it seems. I don't see any difference between long development or short development. I will always pick 2000/4000 renders with branching choices after few months rather than 100/300 renders per/twice a month with less contents on one route.

Big update is always better than a small one, I agree.

I prefer updates with 5 renders and at least two bugs, in my opinion they are the optimal solution:PogChamp:

I would say there are nuances in between, or are there?

by now the new chapter is finally "little" away (a good month), let's wait and see, whether it then has 4000 or 5000 renders tells us something about how good an episode it will be? i don't think so

Of ep 6's 19 scenes 10 of them were very short scenes from the D&G game, it's unlikely there'll be any comparably short scenes in this ep.
I mean it had 19 scenes so one more than what ep 9 will have apparently... i guess will wait and see how long and how good these 18 scenes will be.

As Derek said 'Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt" no wait that was Abraham Lincoln
I don't think they are dumb. Biass for sure but not dumb.
I mean, you have to admire the way they took some normal and even predictible piece of new information and they find yet another thing to complain about.

I think DPC's claim that a single path takes 3 hours to complete is heavily inflated. I remember finishing my Bella save in episode 8 in roughly 1-1.5 hours.
That could be the case I'm hoping for a least 2 or 2.5 hours for one run anything shorter is to little for such a long wait. All together could be 5 or 6 I would be happy with 2 hours thats a good number for me anyway

I don't read that fast even in Italian.... :oops:

usually when I retrieve runs and then follow slo the content of the LI the run is dedicated to it takes me less than an hour per chapter, say 40 minutes (I don't like minigames so they are cut off upstream)

I'm playing with mingames on, but I'm a quick reader usually. I only read everything in the first run, the next saves I skip through the content I have seen already so it's a lot quicker to do.

The most ridiculous thing in his claim is that it took him 3 hours without the mingames. :WaitWhat:

So the update is going to be pretty story heavy with a lot of text and conversations. Render/animation wise it's roughly the same size as episode 8, so I'm going to go with it being story heavy.
