[elle21]

It's only me think there are the possibility the mother of Mc was an RR or BB? I'm mean she was rich and had powerful family before she run to Mc father

saying something like "Riona is best girl

then at the end of the third chapter the bomb is dropped, and even for that alone, what happens next seems minor.

I am almost at the end of the mansion's free roam, but I am so uninterested right now that the only thing keeping me going is my OCD and even then, I haven't launched this game for 2 days now.
Might consider waiting for chapter 6 and see if things get better before continuing with chapter 5.

Quick question. Where is the latest status update? And was there also a Beach Fun render of Bella?

if you don't care at all about Maya and Josy (but I don't understand how they can't be interested from the first moment) I guess even the first 3 chapters were not the best, the two girls are the center of the first story arc, probably from here forward they should have a less central role, but they will still be present

It's only me think there are the possibility the mother of Mc was an RR or BB? I'm mean she was rich and had powerful family before she run to Mc father

I'd say it's possible he is a Burgmeister, much less a Royce

the first would be quite irrelevant, but I am not thrilled anyway, because it reduces the world of BADIK to an apartment building where in the end they are all connected

I said "at this point", which all started at chapter 4.

Latest Status Update

You must be registered to see the links

This week I've mostly been posing static renders and writing dialogue.

1845 static renders and 74 animations are completed.

The render queue has 180 static renders and 18 animations waiting for their turn to render. What this means is that episode 6 currently consists of 2025 renders and 92 animations when everything in the queue has been rendered.

Hitting the 2000 render mark and realizing that I have much left to pose makes me wonder how big this update is going to be. Normally, I would feel it's close to being complete around 2000 renders, but not this time.

My gut feeling is telling me that we, for the first time, will venture into 3000+ renders in an update. And looking at the animation count, I know it's not done yet either.

I have plenty of scenes and a handful of lewd events left to write and pose for. I know I want ~30 animations for just one particular lewd scene among the ones that are left.

What I want to have said with this, is that seeing these huge numbers doesn't mean we're that close yet. Don't let that stop you from feeling excited about this being a big episode, but know that there's quite some time left before release despite the numbers I will post in my status updates from here on.

Other news

As I've said in the past, I always strive to learn new things. It doesn't matter what it is, as long as it's new and helps the development somehow.

Last week I studied and learned techniques that will make the manual process of posing animations much faster for me. While also having the added benefit to enable poses and animation types I had difficulty making before. These techniques are so useful that they have changed my entire workflow for making animations. And that is a workflow that I've been improving since I started making games.

I'm super excited about using this new workflow and I will be spending the better part of the upcoming week posing animations for episode 6, trying to master it.

Poll news
In poll news, the "Special render - Main girl" poll has ended. It was a split result, with Sage winning the $10 poll and Isabella winning $15/25/30 polls. All in all, Isabella was the winner and will get a Special render set in Episode 6. I'll make sure to post a preview of it after I have made it.

I will wait a bit before posting any more polls because I need to think about what's left to vote on. I know I want some kind of animation poll, so I turned this post into a survey to see what you prefer to vote on.

Please vote on everything you'd like to see polls for and I will take the result of this survey into consideration for my next, but also future animation polls.

Have a nice weekend

Bella Render

 

[Osamabeenfappin]

My waifu ranking in order

1.Jill
2. Sage
3.Bella
4.Jade
5.Heather (or whatever Tommy's gf's name is
6.Riona
7.The poor terrified deaf girl
8. Everyone else.

And I will say this I've enjoyed every single thing that happens in regard to Aerith.

Also does anyone else feel like the game kinda low key penalizes you with the main LI's if you have a Massive DiK score?

It's only me think there are the possibility the mother of Mc was an RR or BB? I'm mean she was rich and had powerful family before she run to Mc father

Lot's of people have thought that.

Not a Royce because that would mean incest. Could be a Burgmeister but, for that to be true, you would have to believe that Neil wouldn't have mentioned the family connection at any point.

And how would that be so difficult to believe?

 

[lemonfreak]

Because they're shown to have a good relationship where they actually talk to each other about things? What're you imagining, something like this?

MC "So Dad, I've sent out my college applications today"
Neil "That's great, Son, do you any preference about where you go"
MC "I'm hoping to get into B&R, they offer all the classes I want to take and it's really affordable because they offer discounted rates for students from low income families" *
Neil (thinks) 'I know the college was founded by his great grandparents but I'm going to keep that secret for reasons'
Neil "That's great, Son, I'm rooting for you"

* I made that bit up based on Steve's comment that B&R is the poor people's college

And just because they have a good relationship means he can't keep a secret from his son? Having a good relationship with someone, even family, doesn't mean that you don't keep some things from them, especially if you have or believe you have a good reason not to tell them.

There are a few fairly plausible reasons why Neil wouldn't tell him he was related to the Burgmeisters, and it's interesting that whenever he tells the MC about his Mom and about how they got together, he seems to have trouble remembering all the details properly which makes it dificult for the MC to ask him about it because he never quite gets the full story. Almost like Neil is deliberately acting forgetful to try and make the MC not ask if he knows he won't get anywhere by doing so.

 

[Dashxp4k]

Ep 5 definitely and I'd say it's a fairly common consensus that the spending the majority of the episode in a single free-roam location wasn't great becuase it slowed things right down and there wasn't a great deal of story advancement. Ep 4 was OK, although watering the plants at Bella's was a major pain, and with the HOTs you at least get a fair bit of steamy action by wandering around their house so it didn't feel quite as bad as ep 5.

But certainly the pacing of the first 3 episodes was good because we got through the majority of the first 2 weeks in those episode whereas eps 4 and 5 cover just 3 days.

Hopefully Ep 6 will be a span of a week.

Yes,God I was so mad this update didn't take us to Monday night. I mean I get it but still.

All of which would lead to MC feeling betrayed if he finds out he's a Burgmeister from someone else which is the sort of shitty writing normally associated with the Arrow-verse shows.

I really hope so.

 

[moskyx]

But that would link to the initial statement about what a family is...

It still would be shitty writting, though.

 

[lemonfreak]

I want each episode to take place over progressively shorter periods of time

But that would link to the initial statement about what a family is...

Yes but in the wrong way. That was all about making our own families from the people we choose to be with, not those who happen to share a bloodline. It turning out he's related to someone he chooses to be part of his family undermines that.
