Maybe he should've checked that before, I guess.The preview had a few seconds of uncensored gallery in there. So yes, Youtube nuked Cari for posting porn.

In a perfect world, updates would come every 1-2 months, like with Tell Tale Games. That way, things stay fresh without getting boring. But with small teams, often just one person, that’s just not realistic. I think it’s just an inevitable situation, that you forget stories or even games, or rather wait until something is finished or had enough updates for a couple of days playtime unless you are superfan and replay it anyways each update or have elite level memory. Waiting a year for just two hours of story doesn’t seem worth it. Still, a lot of these visual novels are passion projects, and if I had the skills for writing and design, I wouldn’t want to hand that off either. Discovering a new VN is great, and Eternum is messing up my sleep schedule since two weeks, but I already know that it won’t be finished in the next two years.

Honestly, I don't think Nova will get a scene, it's more likely that Calypso will get a scene instead

You have refined, blessed tastes. May we be graced with Caly soon, brother.
It's completely unrealistic.
Most AVNs do not earn enough to be any more than a hobby. There are probably only 2 (Summertime Saga, and Being a DIK) that actually earn enough to have anything more than one or two guys working on it - and you'd need a team of 10+ to have meaningful updates every 2-3 months. Fuck, even big MMOs with hundreds of staff struggle to produce a couple of hours of story content in 4-5 months patch cycles.
Telltale develop for a year or more before the first episode is released. They can release them quickly because it is a release strategy, not a cycle. Almost everything is done, aside from polish, before that first episode releases.

I wasn't trying to imply that TT created the episodes in just a months time, just that it's a good release cycle for VNs.

I wouldn't call earning more than 10k/month a "hobby":

Caribdis himself gets like 20k clean (avg 29k minus 20% VAT and minus 5% patreon).

Wouldn´t mind any of them.
Apart from Dalia, which everyone pretty much agrees is a sure thing, I would think it will be this:
1 - Dalia (no ass smashing for now)
2 - Annie´s first penetration sex scene
3 - Something lewd with Calypso (probably bj)
4 - On this one, I´m still betting on a surprise threesome.

He did foreshadow us, Luna/Annie Threesome. We also go to the space server with, surprise, Luna and Annie. So... maybe. It will be to soon, though.

The AVN's biggest flaw has been fixed! Well, not completely but still...

Personally, I don't like how the new title screen seems less immersive compared to the first one, but I guess it's a bit better than looking at a brick wall.

All I want is more Dalia facefucking
It's not. It's a decent income: for a single worker.
Caribdis pays for his animator, and outsourcing others things, on top of his electric use (I use HS2 Studio and it is constantly 100% load on my 3070, it's really inefficient when idle). His pre tax take home after costs is probably more like 15k, which is still under $200k per year and the sort of figure you need to raise a family on a single income in a developed nation.
It is not a figure you can pay employees a decent wage on. This was the key part of my statement and why I stated that only the scam lord DarkCookie and Dr Pink Cake have the monthly income to have a team.
Any AVN dev with 1k patrons can call it their job, rather than a hobby - but how many can boast that? I'm often looking at Patreon pages. It's only in the last year that Pale Carnations has crossed this number, despite being the highest rated title here for years. Outstanding titles like Leaving DNA have only 300.
The fact is, most are only able to treat it like a hobby. Caribdis being able to take home the same money as a middle-level google employee is a massive anomoly. DPC and DC bringing in 50-100k per month is an even greater anomoly.

I mean seeing how both her and EMPRESS CARTA I are prime HAG material was the outcome ever in doubt?
Just look at them. THEY'RE SCREAMING TO BE BREED
And yes, for all of those uninitiated, this is a 4Chan meme that got mainstream with the birth of VTubers..... Especially MamaTubers. And now, a creative reading of the trend:
