That's not it. Like many Indie Devs, he's very protective of his game. And after what happened to College Kings, can you really blame him for not wanting to repeat someone else's mistake? Is it really that important to get the update earlier that you would accept lower quality and lots of bugs?
Yeah, there seems to be some high rollers on Pateron who wants her or else he would have gotten rid of her after the huge backlash. We know he created her on request from some on Patreons and apparently, he keeps her in the game for the same reason.
Minigames are great in this game. They are a matter of taste. Do I like doing minigames on my 50th playthrough? No. But that's why the no minigame option exists. Does it alter the gameplay a bit? Yes. Does it lead you to game over or unable to achieve most things you normally can with minigames on? No. Developing minigames may take some time away from creating something you like more, but never say that minigames are useless or that everyone hates them.
Management games and something like the brawler are fine(ish) and can indeed add something to the story.
But anything puzzle-like or the english, math or new tests are entirely useless, people who like to play these kind of minigames/quiz/puzzles can do this all over online or whereever, why do they have to be in an avn, when development times suck already in this genre anyway?
I'm planning to do a CHICK Others playthrough and I'm having problems deciding how to proceed with it, which girls I should and shouldn't romance and the major choices I should pick. Can anyone share how they approached their own playthrough?

I focus on Riona, Lily, Nicole, Camilla and Cathy in my Chick Others playthrough. I also tried Nora but I had a feeling hers would become problematic with the others so I broke it off and decided to continue hers on a separate save. I decided against adding Jade because again, I worried it would create problems further along.
None of those should cause any problems unless they later ask to be exclusive, in which case you can break it off if you like. All of them appreciate a Chick MC. Lily is the exception because she has a short Dick exclusive make-out scene and one that is easier to get if you're a Dick, but she also has a scene that is easier to get if you're not a Dick. Camilla has one that need you to be a Dick too.
Of course, if you don't choose to order from Quinn's restaurant, you will miss some scenes with Riona, Lily and Camilla in season 1-2 (but there are ways around some of them). However, it doesn't seem to affect season 3.
Would you? If you were creating a AVN that was super popular and was making you a lot of money, would you risk a lower quality product just to get it out faster?

I have a path/branch/playthrough, series of saves, whatever you want to call it, for almost every LI and Side with no other influence. It takes awhile to make these (hey..year or more between updates...not a big deal) but once you do it, it makes things much easier when a new update arrives. Highly recommended. Also, make a backup of all those saves.
Yes...interesting conversations....Sage and Girl Talk (Jill path).... How does Sage convince Jill in EP11 that they both can work MCs dick? Hey...both rich family girls...I'm in.

That is one advantage of the updates taking so long. You can make a save for every path imaginable if you want and have it ready by next Ep. I have a save where I avoided all content so the MC has only been with Zoey, the one sentence that references that fact in two episodes will be so worth it .
I joke but I actually do appreciate it when games take note of stuff like that, it encourages you to try shit you'd normally not bother doing.
<<< DPC's Patreon picturized circa 2024. That's why that warcrime of a character got no pushback. I'm barely been OTT, I don't think he's received real criticism for any decision on Patreon. Banning works folks, they'll even ignore the oily horror gyrating before their own eyes.
I agree he genuinely thinks it adds to the VN. He comes across as my way or no way. And people like that often tend to either make choices where they hit it out of the park or make a decision that makes you want to rip your hair out, often in the same fucking week . Nightmare to work with or for; even more so than perfectionists.
On the whole it's worked for DPC because BAD is a good AVN with some great characters that has likely financially secured him and his family for decades if not life. But there's definitely been some decisions that are head scratchers along the way; such as 60fps animations.
I know this has been at least mentioned in the past, but it's starting to drive me crazy. Is there a reason that morning light through the windows look a lot like smoke/mist in the early episodes? View attachment 4321343View attachment 4321346View attachment 4321350
Is that a DAZ thing or what, because I seriously doubt it's actual smoke/mist. Dust particles refracting in the light?
It's not mist, it's not dust. It's an effect looked for by DPC. It happens only in Maya's bedroom for a reason: Maya suffers from a severe and annoying flatulence, especially at night. This creates a kind of thick nauseating haze that saturates the room.
See shocked MC's reaction on last picture, he's calling for help.
