The last update dropped here in like 20 minutes after it was released. An hour later there were multiple download links, including the legendary Nopy.
And an hour later there were people complaining that it kept crashing at the Josy scene.
Shit moves fast around here!
i cant be the only one who thinks half a year wait for an update is ridiculous
All good things come to those who wait.
Most of our assessments in life are relative. Relative to similar things. So to state that it's ridiculous to wait 6-7 months for this episode can only be said when compared to how long it takes for other games to update.
Also, the quality of the update needs to be considered. If a game was updating everyday, would that be the best thing ever, even if it just updated 1 render a day?
Renders and animations are the only real metric we can use to compare these games, and this release operated at ~20 renders and ~1.5 animations a day. I'd be curious to know if any other games are pulling close to that.
A game people like to compare to BaDIK is City of Broken Dreamers. I think the last release was 5-6 months after the previous one, so to give it the benefit of the doubt I'll say 5 months. That means it was averaging 6 renders a day and roughly 3 days per animation.
So in throughput, DPC is burying CoBD.
Next to compare is quality. I think CoBD's story is unarguably more rich than BaDIK, but that doesn't mean it's more enjoyable.
I find the characters in CoBD rather boring, although there are a few I like, also most of the sex scenes don't suit the game and its pace. BaDIK is chock-a-block with interesting characters, fun dialogue and enjoyable situations and the sex scenes are integrated very well.
Bottom line, if anyone else was creating what DPC is creating it would take them close to 2 years to achieve each episode. DPC does it in just over half a year and people still complain...
Relatively speaking, DPC is kicking ass.
