Do you think that telling Bianca "Matty" cheated on her with Liv closes her cheating route with Fuckface (but opens up threesome with Jill)? Since it would mean Bianca would do the same Liv did to her.

I have the feeling, that not telling her would make the cheating with her possible. (and you need a lot of cheatpoints since Fuckface is a chik)
At some point Bianca will find out that Matt is cheating on non Jill paths and that will open up the opportunity to sleep with her on the Others path.

But also a threesome with her and Jill does sound quite nice and IMO better than the ever popular Jill/Bella threesome.

That oily manatee is almost guaranteed to end up getting more scenes before the end as a "reward". Personally I think she's DPC's personal mommy fetish he decided to inflict upon the rest of the world. He must know she's not a popular side character at this point and just doesn't care.

I love that no one in the history of this thread has ever called that old cow a manatee before...

But seriously...

I agree. The game has hinted about there being some sexual history between Jill and Bella but it always felt wrong to me since they have more of a sisterly relationship. Jill and Bianca would be more interesting.

Chances are it will discover to other route that Matthew cheated on Bianca

There have been some women players who have pointed that out. But the game is written very male-point-of-view and it would take a lot of work changing that. And the fact that many hated Interlude, I doubt he will ever experiment with that again.
Some have suggested gay content since many women enjoy that but he has made it clear that he has zero interest in that. It's understandable, I don't think it would be very fun for many straight men to make gay hardcore sex scenes for a game.
What s point of adding "Interlude" episode when Zoey came to MC,shared emotional upbeat, instead making Interlude as aditional episode (creatively done with 2D picture narration from Zoey's while met MC and that could have been helped Prof.PC to progress in S3 and probably, he would have been done with one more episode of S3!

Actually, he wouldn't. He made Interlude while working on porting the game to the new system. He couldn't make any new episodes until that was done so fans would have had to wait regardless, the only difference would have been that they would have nothing at all.
It was also a way for him to test the new system, and try some new things and experiment.

Okay as you said, it means, Prof. had made "Interlude"before starting working on S3 so fans won't get bored playing some additional saga of Zoey! Hope, you got my point.But,there was no need of "Interlude". I have seen many views from fans, some were not liking it and some were skipping "Interlude"!!you could realised why? It s because fans were eagerly waiting for the game, what they left in S2 and what s next they could play(content) in S3!

Just another developer milking the cash cow. Went from three-four updates in a year all the way to one. Doubt you'll even see this one this year. They aren't much better than his original updates or longer so that tells me exactly whats going on. Dudes using all the money to vacation instead well giving supporters scraps. Much better games out there and developers to support who won't leave you feeling ripped off.

Maybe. He has made almost as many static renders as he had in Episode 10 already. But then again, he has only finished Jill's content of the main girls, so you could be right.
DPC should be at around 5000ish posed statics atm, still a few hundred behing EP 10 (it has 5900ish), he didn't mentioned any specific number as the goal of EP11 but it should be around 6500-7000.

Like you said, only Jill path is complete, so I wouldnt be surprised if EP11 reached 7K render considering how much work is still left, its also not usual for him to add some small scenes when he starts doing his play tests.

Unfortunally all these statics will delay the animation rendering even more.

How much we will only know after the release or when DPC updates the total numbers of posed animations, been a while since he did it (19/07 report)

Okay as you said, it means, Prof. had made "Interlude"before starting working on S3 so fans won't get bored playing some additional saga of Zoey!

That discussion is completely useless, the interlude was always in the plans and BAK is a one man show, so what he wants goes.

As long as he is pulling that much money, DPC will do whatever he wants.

Plus, the interlude added around 4 months of wait time, considering how the game still needs years before its completed, it really isn't much in the bigger picture.

Would I skip the interdule? Sure, but the player opinion really doesn't matter for DPC, specially our as pirates.

He wasn't porting the game, only making the season 2 Steam release, a process that lasted around a month at worst.

No he wouldn't, the interlude is like 1/5 the size of a current update, the schedule would be like 4 months ahead, so we would be getting EP 11 in the next weeks instead of the next months.

It would be nice, but its DPC decision in the end.

Nice point, I doubt Bianca would cheat with Jill if she was tolc by the MC earlier.

Most players of AVN are straight male, so it makes sense DPC would do the game as he did, its only logical.

That oily manatee is almost guaranteed to end up getting more scenes before the end as a "reward". Personally I think she's DPC's personal mommy fetish he decided to inflict upon the rest of the world. He must know she's not a popular side character at this point and just doesn't care.

I'm aware that her return is inevitable, I just want a episode free of her and chokefull of high quality lewd scenes with any of the other girls in the game.

Specially since EP 10 was weak lewd wise.

That would be a interesting braching, it makes sense at least.

It would be nice, but its DPC decision in the end.
The Interlude was timed appropriately (at the centre of the story, typically where Interludes traditionally fall), it also filled in the gaps of what had been happening with Zoey since her breakup with the mc, and placing more weight on her character than would have been if she just showed up. It also gave DPC a bit of a break, working on something a little different, which may have been cathartic after having spent almost three years flat out on the game already.

That said, players on this forum worked themselves into a rabid frenzy of hate for Zoey because:
  1. No one wanted a new LI this late into the story (except they wanted Bianca the second they saw her drooling for the mc at the concert, and they wanted Yoga Girl, also knows as Carol-Lyn from this day forth, from only a handful of renders...)
  2. The mc had literally just committed himself to a girl at the end of the last episode (unless you chose the "Others" path, which we all did, so this point is a little moot) and they were afraid she was gonna throw a spanner into the works.
  3. She has blue hair and people have issues with that, possible an extension of the smurf from AL.
  4. People already hated her for leaving the mc in the first place because said people have abandonment issues due to their mommies not holding them enough when they were little.
  5. People didn't want 1 second spent away from developing the main story, and this was definitely quite a lot of time away from developing the main story.
But actually, the Interlude wasn't that bad. Compared to other games here (like 98%), it has a combination of good graphics, being told well, having a unique interface, having good music, and superb minigames (ok, I lied about that last one...) It's just people didn't want it in the first place, so they were significantly bias against it.

Also, even though the time between Episode 8 being released and the Interlude being released was roughly 15 weeks, that time also included:
  • Bug fixes for episode 8.
  • Walkthrough for episode 8.
  • Christmas.
  • New Year
  • Season 2 release on Steam
  • Both seasons release on GOG
  • Another Q&A.
  • DPC getting COVID
  • Development/testing of the pre-requisite import logic between seasons.
The actual core Interlude work was only about a month and a half.

And all that said and done, when Zoey did show up in episode 9, people actually liked her (I mean the players, yeah the DIKs liked her too). She was chill, low key, and didn't start causing problems at all. The mc doesn't even know where he stands with her just yet. It's pretty cool.

Although, this animation probably delayed episode 10 by a month!

This game was never more than 2 updates a year. The current updates are approximately 3 or 4 times bigger than the first episodes. Other games update 4 times a year but have half the content over those 4 updates that one episode of this game has.

DPC is milking, his decision to move from 30 to 60 FPS on animations was solely to increase development time, it offers nothing more to the story, his constant making new minigames and tinkering with the existent minigames is exasperating. There's plenty of things to be annoyed by without blatantly lying in all three points that you made.
I dunno about that.

Episodes 1, 2 & 3 were released in 2019. Episodes 4, 5 & 6 were released in 2020.

But as you say, the rest of the dude's posts is bs.

The 30 to 60 fps conversion didn't actually result in slower development, because it coincided with his new graphics cards arriving and he commented that it was faster doing 60fps on the new hardware compared to 30fps on the old. The real issue is he just keeps created more, and longer animations. The animations are literally taking months to complete.

Minigames... I guess the new Brawler is ok if it's gonna actually matter to the plot (for when the mc takes down Caleb). But the fucking spelling and maths games... :rolleyes: why did he even imagine they needed a revamp? :rolleyes: And I totally keep forgetting there's a fucking fish feeding game. :rolleyes: Fuck, if I keep rolling my eyes I'm gonna get a headache! :rolleyes:

So you would rather not have nothing than Interlude, is that what you are saying?

The episodes also became larger and of higher quality. If you don't like high quality content then there are plenty of fast and easy porn games to play.

He wasn't porting the game, only making the season 2 Steam release, a process that lasted around a month at worst.
Don't you remember we had to transfer a save to the new system? We had to make a special save at the end of episode 8 to transfer to season 3, because of the new system. You can't load episode 1-8 saves in episode 9. He cleaned up the code and rewrote some of it. The longer a game like this gets, the easier it is to get bugs. The different choices and paths get tangled.

This is his pride and joy, I can understand why he wants it to look its best and be its best. He's even thinking about remastering season 1 when he's finished because he feels it doesn't look as good. To many, this is just a porn game, but to him, this is life's work. People who are asking the guy to not make it the best he can and to just release it as quickly as possible, don't understand how much this game means to him.


Also, some people actually enjoy the mini-games. I do. And it's something he enjoys creating with his wife, I don't see any problem with it. You can turn it off.

That special save was because the interlude & season 3 were going to be a new file, not a port.

Porting something is brigring it to a new plataform like consoles or phones.
