Well it hasn't ever years between updates, I mean right now we're on the longest waiting time and it's only a few months after the first year of waiting. So long as the quantity and quality of the content released is reasonable, than even such a long wait time is justified. We simply need to understand that the ratio between quantity of scenes, quality of scenes and time taken for the update
(as well as considerations for other types of work that the game still needs) needs to remain within a certain range for it to remain reasonable. Personally I've never sent Doc any money so I'm benefitting regardless of how long I have to wait for the updates so long as the ratio I mentioned remains reasonable. And I usually fully ignore games for very long periods of time and allow for multiple updates to stack before I return to play the game, so even though waiting does irk me somewhat as this is my favourite game, it's not going to kill me either.
I remember that I had made a very long post, sort of ranting against all the pessimism on the sub and stating that Doc will have a sort of performance anxiety, and that will cause him to release the update not too long from now. And it seems that I am completely right as Doc stated he did have anxiety.
I've made a prediction at the end of March that the game would come out it was;
" I feel like 1-2 months is reasonable, any further and it would be 2.5-3 months and possibly up to 3.5 months, but I find 4 and above to be incredibly unlikely. "
This seems to be fairly accurate, so long as Doc remains within the parameters that he claimed. He seemed to be genuine with what he was saying, and like I said he has performance anxiety as I had hypothesized he would in the past.
The update will have a lot of new content, much better artwork and much better animation quality. Check out my
breakdown comment that has links to all the information we know so far. Though I'll add the list breakdown here
(keep in mind that I might have made a mistake getting the information);
Total: 16 Scenes & 22 Variations 9 are Clothes Variations
(5 Martha Scenes / 10 Variations 9 are Clothes Variations)
(2 Mia Scenes / 1 is Beasty)
(4 Lucile Scenes / 3 Variations)
(3 Vera Scenes / 10 Variations / 1 Scene + 5 Variations is Beasty)
(2 Unknown Scenes)
Well there are some things that aren't planned to be scenes, for example he mentioned in the recent stream that the Martha breast drop animation isn't actually a scene, it's just a transition for other scenes, basically you walk up to Martha and initiate sex with her, and you see her clothes come off. At least that how I interpreted what he said. So technically, presenting that as a scene as I am in my breakdown comment from before is wrong, I had assumed it was part of the "Martha Kiss & Grope" scenes, but it makes sense and is reasonable to be something else entirely.
Anyways, if this is the case, than it's the best example of a type of content that he added to the game that isn't actually a scene.
I understand that trust in his words has been degraded due to years of him effectively lying on when he would release updates, the first one or two mistakes is fine, but it got to a point where he just refused to state when an update would come out, and then the waiting times really began to increase, it becomes much harder to believe him. Despite that I do feel confident in what he was saying, as I had described before, he does have a performance anxiety, and I've also seen that he has made quite a lot improvement to his work. You all need to understand that the screenshots I take and share from the streams don't give his improvements enough justice, once the update comes out there will be no complaints about the quantity or quality of scenes.
I don't understand what the numbers mean.
