4K is four times as big as 1080p, after all. It is a very big leap indeed.

The renders in the game are FHD. I understand it means that it is the resolution of the renders he creates for the game. Or am I misunderstanding it? :unsure:
Well, the trick is to render in 4K and then reduce the actual results, which results in slightly better details even for 1080P. But the point is, is it honestly really needed? Because DPC uses depth of field and focal distance settings really well, like what professional photographers do using SLR cameras and professional equipment.

Doing the 4K then reduce trick, just takes a fuckton more time to create a render for what maybe 4 to 10% improvement (at best)!?

Ah, I see. So he actually first renders in 4K. I did not know that.

And if the gained final quality over just rendering in FHD from the beginning is as moderate as you say (only 4 to 10 percent better quality), then I have to agree that it hardly looks like a decent payoff.

Got it! You like women with emotional problems in their baggage. To me, Nicole and Lily are well developed characters. I don't doubt at all if Lily is an undercover DEA agent, investigating who is dealing drugs in the B&R.
Not sure how you came to that conclusion. Sure Quinn is fucked up galore, but Nicole and Lily? Nicole and Lily seem to be two of the most casual and composed characters in the game (and well developed as you say). Compare them to the actual main LIs:
  • Bella: We know she has some significant psychological trauma, if the mc understood the reason for her persona, he retrospectively suggests he would never have kissed her but called for help instead. That's some fucked up shit.
  • Jill: She's kinda stupid, and used to have major hangups about sex (good to see she's tackled that last one)
  • Josy: She's cool, and super cute.
  • Maya: She's been fucked over by her dad all her life and relies on others to solve her problems. She has low self esteme and is confused about her sexuality.
  • Sage: By her own admission, she has trouble discussing emotions and is prone to bouts of anger.
And then some of the side characters:
  • Arieth: Maybe one or two braincells?.
  • Ashley: Caught up in a love triangle with two morons.
  • Becky: Narcissistic bitch.
  • Bianca: Husband's cheating on her and she's lusting after her close friend's boyfriend.
  • Camila: Prostituting herself and feeling ashamed about it.
  • Cathy: Lonely sex-starved teacher.
  • Elena: Exhibitionist but she seems quite level headed.
  • Heather: In a loveless relationship being constantly cheated on.
  • Jade: In a hateful marriage with a sleezy husband, and getting sexually involved with a student.
  • Lynette: Dead.
  • Karen: Shy girl with heaps of physical handicaps (allergies to everything, hearing and sight problems), and scared of everything.
  • Melanie: Fairly easy going.
  • Mona: Ruined her life by regretting getting into a prostitution ring.
  • Riona: Low self esteem (thanks to that cunt Quinn), can't trust her friends. Drawn into Quinn's financial issues. She's paranoid (hang on, it's not paranoia if someone is actually following you :unsure:).
  • Sally: Angry little bitch for seemingly no good reason.
  • Sandy: Insane?
  • Sarah: Same as Mel, pretty chill.
  • Tara: Boyfriend's cheating on her every chance he gets.
  • Zoey: Casual, friendly girl who wasted her inheritance from her grandma on a whim, skipped out on completing high school, but then got her life back into gear, finished school via correspondence, and now has every DIK drooling at her feet. She's doing well. :sneaky:
So almost every character in the game has some sort of emotional problem or other problem that is currently defining them. And of the three girls I listed, only one of them, Quinn, has major problems. Nicole may have a son, but who's to say that is a problem to her? Plenty of single mothers out there enjoying their lives (plenty not though...)

And Lily being a narc? I like the theory, but I don't subscribe to it. Vinny is a bigger player than Quinn, and Lily's moved on from him without a bust, and she's already buying from Quinn, so she's broken the college drug ring already, and what's she doing about it? She's toking it up. Nah, she's not a narc, she's making bank now stripping with the intention to move into healthcare. She knows what she wants.

Anyway, bottom line, you choose any three girls from the game, and there's a huge chance that at least one of them has emotional problems or baggage; doesn't mean that's your type.

Right, and she's doing it by working for months as a stripper and fucking her clients in completely different place.

It just occurred to me so Quinn doesn't cheat on Vinny. Quinn and Vinny have the agreement so Quinn's sales area is the campus. Lily is starting college and thus Quinn is not violating agreement. Lily is a student and what she does with the drugs she bought from Quinn is Lily's problem, not Quinn's. This could get Lily in trouble.

Everytime there is an outfit poll, the most slutty one wins, so 4. Unless there are less pervs in DPC's patrons.

If 3 wins, I hope he takes into account the side ribbons and morph them to match gravity when she's lying down.

Thanks dalli_x for the reminder, I forgot how hot Nora is and this is definitely her best render.
I bet her students have a hard time focusing on anything other than the craving to fuck her.

She is indeed a pretty good character. Hope Dpc use her character well considering we can text her in ep9, and honestly Cathy arc was pretty shit.

I really like the song that plays when Maya & Josy walk out of the room
At the end of episode nine
I don't know if it's the same song on all paths or not.
