Hmm so apparently GD announced a new two months delay for the next release to the 25/6... People care so little about this game anymore that nobody even noticed.

Found on the discord...

Animation capture equipment? Are people really going to buy this? (Of course some will!)
Even Abby is really pissed now on the discord.

LOL! Gumdrop is really something else! But then again, he correctly saw over the last few years that his patrons swallowed even blatant, obvious lies without blinking. No wonder he starts getting even more cocky. I am sure he is amazed that he has such a number of perfect patrons, which pay month for month, no matter what crap he feeds them.
"Motion capture", really? I think gummy is now in a phase where he tests out how far he can go with direct lying and no masking of it.

Can anyone share a save past the piano hero thing? Assuming you can even save...

Oh, okay, I see...piano lessons have been removed. Still I can't save and the freaking sword fighting/20 question scene stressed the heck out of me. :sick:

Apparantly she's a delusional Gumdrop shill that keeps the discord in check and argues with people over dual family's legitness, and if even she is getting mad the ship should start sinking soon.

Uh, okay... First off, I'm not a 3D artist, but that's rather because I got no artistic talent than the technical skills. But I've played with motion capturing already. So, even if he gets the equipment, he needs to capture the motions multiple times (even in the unlikely case that he's got an actor at hand), and manually clean up the captured frames. Then he needs to re-animate _everything_, as there's simply no magic solution to match the captured animations to an arbitrary rig (just because of anatomic differences); even if you got a rough automatic transfer, it's again a manual process to clean it up. And I'm not even talking about learning the ropes of all this stuff. You can do that in 6 weeks if you work full-time on learning this with no room for any mistakes, but even then your first animations will look like crap. Motion capturing is good if you want high quality animations that look great from different arbitrary angles, but for the simple animations here it's far more easy to just grab some porn and replicate the motions manually. If you even can't do that, motion capturing won't be your friend.

Also, I thought he hired a talented artist to deliver high-quality animations? But that guy somehow didn't deliver in time. Hm.

Let's play a game... here are my guesses for the next announcement: a) shipment delayed, b) motion captures need improvement but it's mostly done, c) will redo every single animation with motion capturing and also add a huge load of new animations because it works so well

//edit: I think this was the game for which I registered here.

We had two different topics for the old game and the new version and the mods combined them
more like dfx thread went to \dev \null since posts i made to dfx thread aren't in this thread.

Oh okay, so when the game gets updated again (Assuming it does) it's gonna have 3 stars instead of 1 and be much harder to downvote (Assuming the update is a dumpster fire as well, but that's a given) given there's 86 votes already. What a coincidence! I wonder If I'm gonna get modded again for pointing that out?
