As is tradition, I've picked some spoilers from Ep5v1 for you, guys and gals. I tried to choose images that wouldn't reveal too much about the plot to keep things interesting and intriguing. I'll write a review of Ep5v1 later. (but first I need to get some sleep)

Hey Stan, the Russian and English texts of the news here say completely different things, don't they?
Well, I'm no Stan, but it says, "Tonight's main event! Don't change the channel! Charlotte VS Monica — the battle for the pop-club boxing championship belt!".

I can make out part of the Russian text that says "Charlotte VS Monica" :HideThePain:.
Yep..It says here in Russian: "Do not change the channel during this evening! Charlotte VS Monica! The battle for the Pop-Club Boxing championship belt!" And interestingly enough, I took this screenshot by switching to English beforehand.
Anything good with Steve in this update
Yeah, a full-on sex scene with Monica and Steve, including a deep throat blowjob (In case you make a certain choice in the kickboxing fight event).

Thank you both very much for the translation (y).

My problem with Russian is that, as it uses a different alphabet, I don't know how to write it on the PC. I can only imitate it by writing it out by hand.

Then, I can only manually write the text (like drawing with the mouse) to try to translate it, which takes me a long time.

Alternatively, I can try to extract the text from an image or translate the image, but the latter usually gives an error if there is also English text o_O.

Alright guys and gals, it's time to review Ep5 v1, which has truly become legendary for me.

As usual, I'll try not to reveal key plot details that might prevent you from appreciating all the nuances, and focus on my feelings from what I've seen.

Well, we have reached the real gem of this update, the event that (in my deep conviction) made Fashion Business legendary and will go down in the history of the indie game AVN industry.

I guess you all read the update description and already know what advanced technologies were used by DM in this scene. Yes, I mean the MOCAP animation, the cool motion capture sensor costumes and the fully animated Monica and Charlotte (and Melanie with Grace).

I'm not aware of any indie AVN whose developer has ever managed to do something like that. So, this is definitely a breakthrough in the indie AVN genre and DM has been a trailblazer here. Plus, I don't think we even have enough developers who have the same technical level and knowledge of DAZ3D and 3dsmax as DM. It's no coincidence that many players remark on FB's very cool visualization (with its own style, lighting, details and atmosphere) that you won't find in any other AVN. So if anyone could do such a thing, it's him. (imo)

I'll be looking forward to announced Shiny Hole Grand finals, with dancing on stage, where DM and his team also plan to apply those cool MOCAP (motion capture) techniques and create live characters and their animations. (" development of dances for Monica’s final battle in Shiny Hole!") Enjoy the game everyone.

I suppose I won't fully understand what you mean until I play it. In fact, I'm going to write it down so I don't forget :LOL:!

The first Mortal Kombat games (up to MK3, I think) in the early '90s used real actors, except for monsters like Goro.
Actually, my favourite female characters in fighting games are still Mileena and Kitana from MK9 (if you know what I mean :sneaky:)
.

I've read that the fighting minigame here is similar to "Punch Out!", a Super Nintendo game in which Mario was the referee.

As I have said many times before, FB is the best game in its genre, the largest 18+ game in the world, a game with new technologies as they develop, some of which have been tested on other games with the participation of the developer. And the game continues to evolve, thanks to the developer, us, and those who support the game ;)

I just hope that an "evil" modder will appear and one day and hopefully we will then be able to run the entire story from a single .exe file, even if it exceeds +50 GB :KEK:.

Sorry to disappoint you, but the Dagestan isn't the little homeland of the best russian boxers (the one can see that Monica is in the boxer's uniform). Valuev isn't from Dagestan, Ragozina isn't from Dagestan, you know :)
Well, to be fair, Monica is in a kickboxing tournament, which is not "pure boxing".

Yep, just be sure to get through episodes 2, 3, and 4 before 5. ;)

Yes it is, I even saw a youtube video with these actors in the roles of Sonya, Kano, Johnny Cage showing how MK was made (MK1 and MK2 I think) Yeah, I always liked Kitana and Mileena too, but I liked Sonya the most because she was wearing really sexy tights and had a great figure, hehe.
I've read that the fighting minigame here is similar to "Punch Out!", a Super Nintendo game in which Mario was the referee.
I don't know, I haven't played the game, but obviously what DM did is not true Mortal Kombat, haha. Still, don't forget that the RenPy engine has its limitations, although the program code of DM itself is quite non-trivial and complex (as someone who knows Python and RenPy well told me), but limitations are limitations.

Actually, controlling Monica is quite simple, you just have to click on certain interface elements on the screen to react in time to Charlotte's attacks, thus either going on the defense,( putting a block) or allowing Monica to attack or even counterattack. So yes, Monica and Charlotte have a bar scales (of health and energy) above them, literally...like in fighting games.;)

Okay, I guess 1 spoiler won't hurt, but this way you'll understand roughly what it looks like.

And yes, these are not static renders, it's all fully live MoCAP animation, and all the moves and kicks are done by professional kickboxer girls (well, the DM wrote about it in the update description).

And Monica also has an extra rage bar that fills up if the player misses punches.. And when that scale fills up, Monica can deliver an enhanced combo strike. All in all, I haven't seen anything like this in any AVN game..And I'm not talking about AVN, where simple things like models walking in a straight line are all pre-made animations by someone..

Just to understand, a similar Xsens suit (slightly newer model than the one DM used) in my country costs like a new not bad car (about 40 000$). But it's not enough just to buy this motion capture costume or even just to be able to rent it, you need to understand how to work with it, how to create MoCap animations, programming and be technically very savvy. So we are lucky that DM is such a dev.
