just quiet with this, because dpc might decide to Re-work the earlier chapters :LOL:.

and frankly there are way more awkward looks now, than it used to be. Metallic teeths, bad lighting, horrible hairstyle. overused makeup, and blushing.
DPC have issues, but he's not Oceanlab :LOL: He told in one of Q&A that not planning remasters.
Metal teeth are a reflection problem in some models; it was also present in the old lighting, less noticeable. I was looking for how to fix this in daz - nothing. Nothing at all.
We can accuse him of laziness, but do we want him to lick every render error in Ps to perfection? I would like everything to look flawless, but then we’ll add another month to the development time.
So when I see it, just trying to ignore.
Here, Episode 4. You can see reflections on Jill's teeth.

Despite some artifacts, I like the new lighting system; it makes the picture more voluminous.

(Steaming) Hot take: I think Bella shoulda been Jill's estranged sister or cousin. Nothing against Lana, but they felt too close to each other in the beginning. It really felt like they grew up together with how protective Bella was of Jill.

it's true that the blame for the protagonist being like this is on DPC. who can't write tremolo like a tough guy. :KEK:
He couldn't write a tough guy to save his life. If you think about it, the MC in AL was exactly the same. I mean the only actual tough guy in AL was Liam.

Really? That old visuals are terrible, static non-alive eyes, flat image because of primitive lightning, and specially low-detailed hair from very old-gen DAZ props.
Visuals are much better now, so and character looks.
She's 1 million times better now.

(I know, I should ignore trolls)
Wow, based on post reactions I guess I'm minority here.

For me models are too much pimped out with each season, becoming more and more unreal-look-like. Relating to Sage from ep1, yes render quality was worse but characters were more consistent with environment and now they look like they are using half of Instagram filters all time. Doesn't trying to be "too perfect" give you sense of them being more and more fake? Well, I guess you cannot satisfy everyone...

I can't call early game models "real". They are too flat. The current lighting model with soft shadows adds depth to them, as if you are looking at real people. Perhaps this impression could have been formed from the renders, where the characters use a lot of makeup. Compare what you showed with this:

Never once we saw Jill going to the bar, but she conveniently went to the bar right at the moment Trent was there... ok... she also never ever bumped into Trent during the period after the Hell Week party and this event, not even once despite living in the same house... ok.

Then you have all the events that just made Jill more doubtful of what Tybalt said to her, but of course Jill is very stupid and dumb and would never investigate something fishy, so of course she must learn everything by acident in a sequence of coincidences.

Do you guys even try to think ONCE before posting? Also, do you guys only read the dialogues and don't try to understand what is being said? Or even try to understand the characters? I don't know how many times i have to point the same thing before someone comes with an actual compeling argument.
Are you kidding me? She didn't think to confront anyone about it until she saw the pictures posted from the DIK Hell Week events. Then she asked the MC about them. That is when he told her no, we didn't steal anything other than the deer head on Tybalt's wall and we didn't start any fire. Once she had this information, then she decided to find out more.

She is not dumb or stupid. She is naive and has a little social anxiety from being bullied as a child. She is sweet and caring and very protective of those she feels are being bullied as well.

Maybe if you pulled your head out of your ass and followed the story instead of just dreaming up the events you think should take place you would understand the characters as they are written instead of your own perspective of them?

Best moment in ep 10. For me, it is Josey and mc in the pillow fort after they have confessed their feelings for each other. The mc leans over and tenderly kisses her on the forhead. Josey says to herself, "Don't look up at him...don't look up."

There it is, life in all it's complexity. Josey knows she must break with Maya, but she can't do that yet, and in the meantime, she will not cheat, she will not betray.

Because, folks, when you do that you cheapen everything, especially the love you so badly want to consummate right now.
