Surely we've covered this before.
When he's not coding/posing, the main machine handles the static renders. Gotta keep all those machines humming!
Think this one is more accurate... 0.17-0.22
Somehow I doubt it's that big. If there were ten PCs just for rendering videos the updates wouldn't take half a year, give or take.
If this is a serious question, the answer is probably not. DPC has said in the past that he thinks the story will need 16 to 24 episodes to tell. So that's at least two more 4-episode seasons.Season 3 is going to be the last season episode, right? right... guys!?
Nobody understands you... There are only snowflakes here
Yes, I remember that I got home from college and went to take a shower, it was around 5 or 6 pmDid you enjoyed that?
That three months of development of the Interlude were a totally drag, and now we are paying the consequences. Three and a half months wasted only to deliver half of the content that we can find in Episode 3 with the same time of developement invested. I don't know if DPC needed that break on his schedule to avoid getting burned out, but man, I get the feeling that I'm wating since november.
ColdShower!
- DPC supposedly done about 10 animations that week. Total projection in that range: 275-310-345.
- Total Animation Time could be: 35-40-45 minutes if we follow the Interlude ratio.
- With a steady 1.43 A/D. It would take 2.6-3.4-4.2 months to finish that ambition, which is concerning.
- That would give End September - Mid October - Mid November; just to finish animations.
- That sudden increase of animations project far beyond exceptional EP8 development time…
- Meaning at minimum an other 100 Days of development time.
- Release estimate now as wide as 32 weeks - 38 weeks. Mid October - End November.

I think you are underestimating the length of time it takes for a 1 second of animation to be rendered. Even professional VFX studios with massive render farms take months to animate a scene and they have hundreds of PCs doing them.
???
Ehh I was wrong before... what's one or two more ? And now he should add more personel to his own project !!! Randos nowadays... 
In whom would Chad show more interest in this scenario? Yeah, no thanks.
