okay we are talking about a completely unrealistic hypothesis (to which DPC's response will probably be half chapters): but what are we talking about? how much should the time frame be reduced to create this wave of criticism of the content? we went from 7 months to 11 months, and now from 11 to probably 14.

do you expect that it might go back to 7 months :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: ? in that case some doubt might be there.... but if it went back under a year the general relief would surely and without any doubt be greater than any possible problem

No one is asking for the DPС to cut episodes, it's enough that they don't grow exponentially. Pretty soon he'll just lose all control and it'll take two years to develop one chapter, and DPK will be under so much stress about it that he'll burn out and end up taking a year off.

I saw people commenting we are getting 3 Madame scenes and but I really doubt that will happen.

She probably got 3 scenes last EP because she did not make an apparence in EP 9 (the best one lewd wise in my humble opinion) and because DPC is probably too proud to admit he fucked up with her characther/model.

Also, do remind that her scenes had less than 60s of animations in total (2% of the total animations in EP 10), so it was probably something done to inflate EP10 lewd scene count, otherwise it would have only 13 scenes (with 2 of them being extremly short like Sage cinema scene & Lily BJ).

Now, while I would love for her to disappear and never appear again, that won't happen because DPC will always DPC, but it does appear she will have some plot relevance since she did appear on Sage's date even if you never met her in game.

At worst I see her getting one scene in EP 10, mostly because it's something than inflates the lewd scene number and probably it's really easy to do since all her scenes share the same assets, something that likely make them easier to do and require less planning.


The easiest way to get faster updated without affecting sizes at all would be to stop making animations 60fps and going back to 30.

That would make rendering go so much faster and I wouldn't be surprised that it would save like 3-4 months in a development cycle.

And the best part is that it would be something that wouldn't affect the EP qualitly for most since DAZ animations (lewd ones) look fine at 30fps.

I think the real reason for going to 60fps is so that the hardware doesn't idle when it's doing normal renders. He actually had two choices: keep 30 fps and just do more lewd scenes to keep his PC's from idling, or keep the same amount of 16-18 and just do 60 fps.
He decided to do the second one. Also the long rendering time of the animations allows him to make more renders, write more dialog, make more minigames and it's all interconnected.

So just resurrecting a not so older post of mine:

The guy in the hat in front of the Madame is Mr Wallace (the guy that Burke used to work for as well as the namesake for Wallace Resources, the company sponsoring the dodgy scholarships that Burke is awarding to HOTs who prostitute themselves out):


First shot is Wallace 10 years ago vs Second shot is now:



Less hair, slightly older...

And he seems to be with the Madame:



AKA Priscilla from Wallace Resources.

This makes the Madame a much more important character (which really needs to happen if she's gonna keep showing up).

I expected as much when she had a scene in episode 10, intead of many other girls that are way more story involved than her. Like Camilla or Sandy.

It all pointed to the bull of having her as a more impactiful character of sorts. Complete stupid move by DPC as it always has been when invoving this uther waste of time of a character. I would rather be wrong in my assumptions and you be wrong in your hipothesis, but alas, DPC wants her apparently.

i am quite convinced that DPC did not expect that Madame would be so hated, he even dedicated a preview to her, thus a real spoiler of a character up to that point never seen. it is also relatively complicated to get to her, you have to win the hells week and complete the reconstruction of the house with the minigame. in the end it is mainly from the aesthetic point of view that she was rejected.

in DPC's mind Madame was never just another addition.

You guys, we have a big problem. BIG problem, and it's going to add another 6 months to dev time.

Nora's hair unmistakably, unquestionably, beyond any doubt, clips through her fucking glasses in this one specific shot :KEK:
DPC has to go back and fix this grave mistake before continuing any further with Episode 11 :HideThePain:

Oh you're talking about her floating necklace, right?

It's caught between the gravity of her two giant titties, and that's all you meant right :sneaky:
Couldn't be anything else :sneaky::sneaky::sneaky:

I've put limits on what I can be critical about, I can't let perfectionism delay the development too much, so I have to accept certain flaws in renders and animations. When dealing with it, it helps to know that I will look back at this in a few years from now and regret it anyways for some other reason, haha, so it's best to move on. I always pay attention to details, try my best, and don't let perfectionism stop my progress.

Every time I see it, I kick myself for the issues I let slide because I tend to be a perfectionist with details.

DPC needs to address these stains on his works of perfect perfectionism before going any further. Episode 11 won't come out until the 22nd century :HideThePain:
