Roughly 700 renders in so far. Not rushing ch2 by any means, but if all goes well... Maybe the end of the month on Steam. Maybe.
Looks interesting. wasn't big a fan of the two previous games but this one is not a bad start. Definitely improvement in animations and renders, plus the story is also abit interesting. The combat though, not sure if it's needed cause it's just attack spam.
Not trying to be an ass constantly asking about an update but...update when? You were hopeful about getting the update done over a month ago now so I'm just wondering where you are with it.

Easy, go be part of his Patreon and you'll get updates. Instead of freeloading here and making statements based on your own stats, that you probably pulled out your own anus.
EDIT: Also be aware he works on two VNs. This & The Shrink.

Except on his Patreon there has been no post since this summer. You meant his Discord, maybe?

Either or, comes down to simple fact it's someone who doesn't support the person, thus has 0 access to any information and just pulls shit out their ass and claim that it's facts. Typical humans these days.

I don't have to prove anything. If you want to know if a dev is active or what the status of his game(s) are, just check his discord. And for the record, yes I am a patron of his, and have access to his discord where he frequently posts about his progress with his games, including this one.

Chapter 2 is actively being worked on.
There is your proof.
Have a good day.
If you want more info then join the FOM Discord and ask us there.

He is correct. As many of you who have followed the progress of CH2 closely (on discord) know, I don't work on this alone. Arima (above) and I, work with another coder who had end-of-the-year exams, and the planned December release of CH2 was pushed until we are done with it. So, January is "update when". Also, I personally work only on FOM while overseeing THE SHRiNK. This allows me to focus on FOM. However, creating scenes from scratch with so many characters involved does take a lot of time.

If there's one thing we can rely on you for, it's hot redheads, isn't it? Though IMO this one would be better if it were not quite so dark.

Brighter indeed. But those fires look a little pale. There is a reason I stick to a certain brightness limit.

I also wanted to mention that there is another reason CH2 is being delayed. I am working on voicing CH1. Now, before everyone gets excited... This is amateur-hour voice work, and she is a diamond in the rough (in this fkn country) that can actually speak a decent amount of English. And although it is costing me a lot, don't expect too much from it. Before someone asks for a friend if there will be any naughty voice acting involved. YES! There will be voice work done for the Cecily animated scene, and many more to come. My plan was to voice all the main cast with a different girl, but that requires a budget I do not have. However, if CH2 does as well as CH1 did on Steam (and elsewhere) I will keep adding to it. I wanted the main cast to be voiced, at least. For now, we will have to be satisfied with MC and Oriana.

It's called "overexposure". As you increase the exposure of an image, the highlights tend towards white regardless of the chroma of the image. Having the exposure set for the highlight outliers rather than the main subject of the image is the problem. That makes the rest of the image underexposed and it is not making a good image. We can see the same in picture from The Shrink:
The exposure is set for the bright lights, leaving the rest of the image underexposed. Making dark images too dark is a real weakness of yours and I wish you could see that.

My image was not edited at all. I was just saying that brighter, is not always better. Especially when it is meant to be nighttime. I am going to edit them when the time comes as much as they do not lose their intended purpose.

Of course, one can always use CamerRaw/Lightroom to "open up" the shadows while not "burning" the highlights.
Low lighting scenes is an art that I never learned, so I tip my hat to whoever manages to get a decent firelit render. Still, while my heart firmly belongs to the "If it's meant to be dark, let it be dark" field, logic tells me that the focus of the scene should be stressed/highlighted even if it makes no sense realism-wise.
