now that episode 9 exists and there are rejection scenes for MJ and Jill, DPC could change that, I think. though it would be pretty intense to reject them to play the field at that point in both relationships, I guess
yeah, that path is really good. i prefer that one too. she has time to process the break up and be really available in her head for MC. though it doesn't really translate to anything in season 3, unfortunately.

A work of art, the humor, the drama, the romance, the development of the characters, the music, even the mini-games are fun (and I am not a big fan of them) Without a doubt one of the gems that you have to play if you enjoy these types of games, and by the way, I also say that thanks to this game I discovered this wonderful forum.

As much as it sounds logical and smooth, I still think that:
1. Development time can't increase more and more with each new episode.
2. Episodes sizes can't increase infinite or so significant to cause or be the reason to increase development time each time.
3. Memes about 5-6+ years (or even more) to complete the game are became boring already. It took him 2 years to shoot the first 2 seasons. Then it took him the same time to shoot the 2 episodes and Interlude. 65% of Season 3 to be precise. Any dev cycles scaling at the same pace sounds ridiculous and unrealistic. The worst thing could happen - release times will stick to 11-12 months till the end. But there're a lot of reasons for this time to decrease as well. Even 9 months cycles will cut about 1-1.5 years from those calculations.
4. Until complicated phases of EP9&10 development the only reason to increase dev time was the episodes size itself. But nobody complained till the development time of Interlude and EP9. It all started at that time. And now a lot of people can't shake it off and expect it to be the same or even worse just because they expect it and suppose it would be this.

So far it feels like the episodes haven't reached their growth limit yet - we now have dedicated time for each MG from Ep.9 (which was not the case in the first two seasons), so the growth limit has been reached here, but:
1. We also have the Side Girls block, which is still in active development, their lines are gradually becoming more pronounced and will develop further. Riona, Quinn, Lily, Nicole, Zoey will most likely receive full-fledged routes with a set of content. So it's more content for episodes.
2. DPC likes to come up with new things, not always successful. Long animations are his innovation. Animations in DAZ simply rape the PC and take a very long time to complete. Moreover, it’s a strange decision to make animations at 60 FPS so that the hardware doesn’t sit idle.
3. He love new mini-games and big free roams, I love interactivity, but it also increases development time. These open world renders, especially the party ones, require a lot of preparation time.
4. Plus, potential content with girls that MC's magic stick has so far bypassed.
Sally, Elena, girls from the dorm.
If there is potential for growth, DPC will most likely take advantage of it. I certainly don’t think that time will increase exponentially, but by the end of the game’s development it could reach 1.5 years, maybe even a little more.
Season 2 received a full release at the end of 2021, now we are unknown at what stage of Ep.11 development and are in April 2024, 2 years and 4 months. Season 3 may well take a full 4 years of development, this is quite possible.
That's a little cold shower from me. But we'll see how it goes; indeed, not all episodes were longer in development than the previous ones.

And when I was on monogamous CHICK paths, I wasn’t even given an option—the game had the MC say there was no question in his mind; _______ was the right girl for him, and that’s final.
“Others” only popped up if I was Neutral or DIK.
I like the Neutral options on their routes. I tried the DIK route for Josy and Maya, and while it’s fun (DIK Josy is the best Josy) your decisions away from the girls might alienate them, so careful there dude.

You are forgetting the economic aspect in your considerations. At what point in time is DPC revenue at its highest? When an EP is released.
Re 1: That's strange again. There are many players who clamor for the girls of the Side Girls block and DPC gives it to them. Those people should think about that for once so that needs its. Besides, it already started in EP6 for Side Girls to disappear. Who. Mona. Then Cathy was gone and now Riona. Yes, now you'll think of Zoey. But she's been part of the Side Girls since EP3 and was only properly reintegrated with Interlude and there will be a reason for that. What reason? I can't say for sure. But it's strange that in EP10 Riona is gone and Zoey no longer answers the MC. It looks to me as if there is no burning house, but the MC's player has to decide between Riona and Zoey. Does he save Riona or does he stop Zoey from running away again?
Re 2: He is welcome to create his 60 FPS animations. The player and DPC prefer it so that his hardware is not idle. DPC himself wrote that his current hardware works so fast that he wouldn't get behind with creating the animation. Who benefits from idle hardware? No one.
To 3: DPC loves minigames and big free-roams. For season 3, all mini-games are finished, so that's no longer a problem. Big free-roams are also not a problem because his new hardware is not fully utilized.
Regarding 4, yes, there are girls who have bypassed the wand, but there is no guarantee that they will get the wand from the MC.
No, on the whole I think it will remain at one release per year and the reason is simple. DPC wants and needs to make money. The number of patrons on Patreon doesn't matter. If everyone only pays €1, it can just about pay the electricity costs. Joke.

Earlier this week, I finally finished a bigger part of the episode and moved on to working on lewd scenes again.
While I loved working on static renders these last weeks, it feels great to move on to something new and work on other characters. Completing this big chunk of content for the episode feels like a leap forward.
I am now posing animations daily and will spend a few weeks doing it. If I need a break from it, I'll work on some story scenes to mix it up.
I'll have another cosmetic poll and a preview ready for you soon.
Have a nice weekend!

Wait wtf? We can do that? I thought rejecting her advances would lock her out. Damn, I have to try it now!
At least he's not being lazy like some other devs. It's something, right?

Mona was never an important SG for MC, neither were Camila, Sarah, Mel. These are Down to Fuck girls and it doesn't look like serious relationships are possible with them, unlike the SGs I mentioned above. Mona's role is a plot mine for Stephen and the exposure of his corruption.
Further, I don't believe that Riona will disappear. Seriously, do you think she's been written off? Is all this building a potential relationship with her in vain? No. Riona will get away with a couple of bruises and a broken nervous system, but nothing more.
These 60 FPS don't give anything other than smooth animations, but is this necessary in such a project?
With RTX4090, calculations are carried out faster than DPC do the manual work - posing art, writing code and dialogues, putting it all together into a working state. Yes, his rigs would have been idle with 30FPS animations, the episode wouldn't have come out faster, because DPC himself is a bottleneck... but this is a pointless waste of electricity. He can afford it with his income, but is it necessary? There is such a concept in business - irrational expenses, which with good management runners try to avoid.

He is weird. Does a titanic job. It’s a long time, but the work that DPC does in a year is huge, so it’s hard to call it lazy.
But at the same time, he ignores shortcomings that can be corrected in 5 minutes in DAZ. Remove the effect of chrome teeth from Josy and Neil? -Easy, you can do this once and for all, saving the changes to the model.
Fix Maya's skin? The same thing, in the Surface tab, reduce the texture relief.
Terrible shadows on some renders? It's a matter of seconds to replace the source from point light to disc or rectangle, the lighting becomes softer.
It feels like he is in a hurry and says: Fuck it, it will do as it is. Paying attention to some small details, but ignoring others.

It doesn't matter because girls are actually taken out of the game. They may make sporadic appearances in the story, such as Cathy, but that's as far as it will go. The only ones who are relatively safe from that are probably the LIs. Regarding Riona, it doesn't matter what you believe or not. The fact is that Riona is kidnapped at the end of EP10 and her future in the game is uncertain. Please don't get me wrong. I like Riona, the cute little cat and I don't want anything to happen to her. But what I want doesn't matter to DPC.Mona was never an important SG for MC, neither were Camila, Sarah, Mel. These are Down to Fuck girls and it doesn't look like serious relationships are possible with them, unlike the SGs I mentioned above. Mona's role is a plot mine for Stephen and the exposure of his corruption.

You don't need to explain to me what "FPS" is or what it does. The fact is one thing and that DPC wrote it to make his new graphics render faster than he can keep up with posing and he wrote it when he was already creating 60 FPS animation. The whole thing is a question of quantity and quality.
He can't increase his quantity manually. He can't do more than work on it and the quantity of his animation and static renders is damn high when you compare it to other game developers. So all that remains is quality. Higher quality also increases sales. Don't forget, DPC is not only a game developer, but also an entrepreneur.
He has already created the snowball fight mini-game and just needs to implement it in the EP. That shouldn't be a problem and shouldn't take long.

Yes, I want more content with the side girls, and no, I don't care how long it will delay the release of the episode. I don't like Josy, Maya, Jill, Sage and Isabella, and I've never played their routes.I understand you don't like the side girls because they take the content away from Maya and Josy, and extend the development period. But you can't decide which girls are important and which are not. We are simple players, and everyone has the right to expect that they will get what they want (within reasonable limits, of course). DPC has developed the plots of the side girls too much to interrupt them now, when there are not many episodes left until the end. And I'll remind you what he said last year during the Q&A:
1) The others route will receive the same amount of love as the main routes.
2) People attach too much importance to the division of girls into main and side.
I'm afraid you'll have to accept that some minor girls will get their own endings (I think it will be at least Zoey, Quinn, Lily, Riona, Nicole and Jade). And I'll have to accept that the main girls will take over most of the content until the end of the game.
The choice between Zoey and Riona that you described looks silly. If a player wants a relationship with Zoey, should he leave Riona to her fate? Of course, the DPC has already made stupid choices in the game, but this... many players will be furious. Nothing bad will happen to Riona, regardless of the player's actions. How do you imagine this? Riona dies in episode 11, and in episode 12, the player calmly feeds the fish, holds another party and hangs out at a concert with Zoey?
Deaths in the game are quite possible, but not in season 3, because after the death of an important character, it will be impossible to return to the atmosphere of fun and parties.
P.S. Cathy didn't disappear, she was missing for 1 or 2 episodes, and now she's back.
