Here we go again with the false math.
And when comparing Acting Lessons to BaDIK development time people seem to forget the difference in overall quality of the game. Some may not like mini-games, but they do add some actual gameplay to the game (except for the claw machine one, that thing is straight up cursed) and considering Renpy's limited capabilities DPC is milking this engine dry.
Tell me about it. I played a game last month where all the “choices” were a big joke. The choice would change one line of dialogue, then the story would continue just the same as if you’d made the other choice. And in some places, there was only one choice. Just a button to press before the game proceeded.
Yeah it's one of my biggest pet peeves.
OMG, both are you are Fake.
. Kind of Ironic. 
Ep10 by it self is bigger then some finish games here, DPC would be better serve if he would stick to ep 7 or 8 size sure some eps might feel smaller or maybe not as much time with some girls but it would even out over time and besides it would likely mean more ep's
another thing to consider , since its seem to be used as a defense that ep 9 and 10 has more " content" than the entire first season, the first 4 episode, is that, while in render count it does get bigger, both has over 5000 render both , but in those 2 episode and with 10.000 Render, are really much more actually happend than the firt 4 episode ?
9 didn't really move the story any but 10 did actually move things forward but I do agree with the point I think your making in that the story was moving faster when he was doing less rendersanother thing to consider , since its seem to be used as a defense that ep 9 and 10 has more " content" than the entire first season, the first 4 episode, is that, while in render count it does get bigger, both has over 5000 render both , but in those 2 episode and with 10.000 Render, are really much more actually happend than the firt 4 episode ?
But the thing is that he didn't lose patrons. After Ep.8, DPC reached a plateau at an average of 13k patrons, and now after a record-breaking wait for Ep.10, he has broken the record, reaching 19k patrons.
To be fair look at any TV show or movie all the good shit happens near the end the rest is just useless filler.
Yeah but what is filler really? We going from A to B there got to be a journey other wise moves and story driven shows would only be 15 to 30 minutes and shows would what be just 2 or 3 eps at the most
yeah, this kind of not really a good example to be comparable
To me filler content is stuff like mini games or useless sex scenes with ugly old cows like madam rose.
Knowing how to handle that is what differentiates a good series from a bad one. And unfortunately DPC is not good at that.
Pretty much no one likes Madam Rose but she isn't slowing things down and the mini games aren't slowing down things what is slowing things down is DPC wanting to make everything bigger and bigger and animations of Zoey running thought the woods or the preps taking a walk plus his own milking scams he try to shove down our throats
Ironically, without them the game wouldn't exist.
It always makes me laugh when people make fun of patrons do they not realise no patrons no game?
, yes she does, those 3 scenes alone was probably at least a month. Making the Renders, the animations, the script, and everything for just those 3 useless scene.
