Think about it this way, maybe the current reality is so terrible and absurd that people prefer to escape to a fictional one and take refuge there, whightknighting fictional characters. :LOL:
And regarding the first one, I heard that in order to represent the results of polls it is not necessary to cover the majority, but I am not a sociologist to stand behind this statement.
lol
Like I said, sometimes funny, and sometimes scary.
:ROFLMAO:

Let's be honest, do we really need all those animations? I'd rather have more story renders than useless animations. You know.... my life changed when I saw the Preps walking, spinning wheels, Zoey running in the forest, etc...




I said it before and I'll say it again. We're all going to be dead by the time this game is fully developed.
Those houses and vacations with the wife don't pay for themselves. :KEK:

If one's life changes because of anything happening in the plot of an AVN, or for that matter the technical components of an AVN, one has got bigger issues in their life than an AVN taking a long time between releases.

I said it before and I'll say it again. We're all going to be dead by the time this game is fully developed.
Hmm, I didn't know you are geriatric. I'm no spring chicken myself but unless I get hit by a bus, I won't be dead by the time this game is fully developed, even at the current pace.

Or are you so pessimistic about the affairs of the world that you think humanity will end in the next few years?

80% of one path, the path with the most content so far, he then states that another path (others) has less content, another path has less than content than that (Bella) and two other paths have even less content again (Sage and throuple), with a double less than symbol suggesting Sage and throuple paths are a lot further back in completion. My guess is probably around 50% completed.
a month ago he said its about half way, so your guess should be right.

It's not just here, saw polls for the best scenes episode by episode on DPCs Discord, in early game it was Isabella and Jill lead, now it's Sage.
Same on unofficial fan Discord for 3.5k people.
I wonder how much of that is due to Sage having by far the most 3-dimensional character development while the rest are comparatively speaking 2-dimensional caricatures.

And let's be honest, her initial "red-hair Maya" hairstyle has probably been the least flattering of all her hairstyles.

Jill > Others > Bella >> Josy & Maya = Sage.

I've started writing and working on what I assume to be the biggest free-roam event of the episode.
Jill is over than Rio and Cammy and Lily and Sarah+Mel? it is so... wow

yey, the big Rio saving free roam time is coming.

This is a very ancient hairstyle from very ancient and terrible assets, there were many of them and he replaced most of them.

I wouldn't call most of the characters caricatures. Despite the fact that each of them has a type, a collective image: Josy is a typical yandere going for MC - ordinary girl next door, Maya is a damsel in distress, Quinn is a “bad girl”, they are all individuals with a soul. Whether we like them or not. We wouldn’t feel like/dislike characters and argue about them for thousands of pages if they were just a caricatured set of pixels.

Yandere? a Bi Yandere, interesting. Ordinary? nah.

Is there a "Yandere" image of her? I mean, if she snaps/attacks or kills someone who wants the MC
Not in that "meaning" you talk about, not like Leah.
In AVNs forums there also being called a girls, who being in love with mc and acts annoying. If more understanding words: José is a simp.

I mean, you said "Yandere" so, I was curious to see what "Yandere" traits she showed in game. Have no clue (well forgot) who Leah is lol.

Lol, sounds about right.

Sure, they all have a type. But that's exactly what I'm saying - they can all be defined by their respective single type. You look at how they are in Ep1 and that's more or less how they still are in Ep10.

Sage, on the other hand, has a personality more like an onion. Every time you peel off one of her traits, you discover something different. The deeper the story goes, the more multifaceted she becomes. And that makes her much more fun to peel off, in all senses of the phrase.

Happy blue screen day! I'm not affected by the global outage (so far). PCs are rendering and I'm working.

I've been writing a lot this week. I focused on writing scenes for the general story and Jill's branch. I've written the broad strokes for Jill's content now. There are a few areas left to fill in for her, but she's the branch closest to completion in terms of writing. The canon story is closing in on completion, too; it's ~80% written.

You might wonder about the rest of the branches, and I'd say the order of most to least completed goes Jill > Others > Bella >> Josy & Maya = Sage. The latter two branches need the most work, and I have plans to get to them eventually.

I think it's safe to say that most of the remaining work is branch-related.

The canon content has received much attention so far during this development cycle. While I'm somewhere around 3600-3700 renders into the development, I still have much left to do for the episode.

I currently estimate that I need four, potentially five, more lewd scenes - if you've kept up with my Status updates, you'll realize I've added a few more along the way.

The current animation count is 272 animations (228 completed + 44 in the render queue).

Episode 10 had 335 animations, meaning I'd need a maximum of 16 animations per remaining lewd scene to get the same amount for episode 11, and that's not going to happen. Given my ambition for the remaining lewd scenes and SFW animations, I can safely say that the animation count will be higher for episode 11.

We'll see how that affects the development cycle in time. This is the first development cycle in which I'm rendering everything @60fps. I can see a need for ~100 more animations to finish the remaining animation work.

I don't have a similar estimate for the remaining static render count; thousands of static renders remain.

I've started writing and working on what I assume to be the biggest free-roam event of the episode. This week, I planned the flow of it, started planning events, wrote parts of it, and dressed 60 characters.

Currently, I'm working on the environment, placing characters in their positions, and setting everything up so that I can continue writing the events. Thanks to these preparation steps, I can hammer out the art swiftly when everything is set up and written.

I'm feeling very creative with the ideas I get as I work on this free-roam event. Since the episode development started, I've had big ambitions for this free-roam event, and I've been looking forward to creating it. I aim to make it one of the highlights of the episode.

Have a nice weekend

Get ready for a January or February release everyone. It's amazing how he has convinced himself that the 60FPS trade off (and whatever other improvements he thinks he has made) are rendering quickly.

His average animation per week is is 5.89... Less than 6. To put that in perspective, the last episode averaged 6.9 by the time rendering was completed. The episode before 7.5 by the time rendering was finished.

Pink is saying 100 animations on top of the 272 he already has rendered or queued. That's 372. At his current average rate he won't finish rendering until the week of January 10th. That will be week 57 which in turn is 6 weeks longer than episode 10 and 15 weeks longer than episode 9. He started the 60 fps mid season last time.

Here's the forcast.

1721417406039.png

Back in April 19th I made this forcast based on some vague numbers he had published.

Just for a bit of number reference. He says he has posed 60-70% of animations. Let's average and say 65%. The last two episodes had 303 (E9) and 335 (E10). Again average, 319. From this we can presume he has around 207 animations posed. That isn't that helpful, except he has told us he has 51 animations in the queue. So 207-51= 156 complete animations.
Based on todays numbers we can see he would have been around 151.3 on April 19th. So I think the 156 estimate was pretty decent.

With all that said what is interesting is that he is technically ahead of the episode 10 development. Where he had 214 on week 32 as apposed to 20 228 for this episode. So actually if he wasn't setting himself a ridiculous target we might have expected delivery in December or even a bit earlier.

You are right about this, Sage is a very multi-faceted and deep character, she doesn't open up right away; under the facade of an easy going party girl hides an intelligent, educated and very kind, highly moral person. This is even mentioned by other characters: "And I thought that I would be mentoring a spoiled brat"(c) Isabella
She's not the only one ofc. Isabella, Quinn, even some other side girls has a double bottom.

Some characters were broken by writing, of course. Jill - a constant change in personality from season to season, Josy remained as simple as possible, without any "her thing", without her own story and arc and became annoying. That's who pleased me in Ep. 10 - Maya. Unexpectedly. I could understand the tragedy of her character.

It's been a while since the last time I checked this. Can someone enlighten me about what to download? I mean, if I download Season 1-2, then Season 3 Interlude + Episode 10, I am set? Or do I need to download that 10.0 to 10.1 thing (I guess I'll need to copy-paste-replace something) too? What do I do with Win/Linux SPLIT(v0.10.0)? Also remember hearing about having to transfer progress to 3rd season? 3rd season will require another folder I guess?

Sorry for bothering you guys but I'm confused as hell, and don't know how to check about two million posts for the answer. After a couple thousand my eyes get wobbly.
