Spoken like a true clueless idiot. The perfect example of a man yelling at clouds. Leeching creators games and then cry about it.

In that case, I'll release my port of the DLC tomorrow.
Is Naughty Secrets available in this FreshWomen [S2 Final Supporter Edition Steam] [OppaiMan] COMPRESSED version?
Actually, turns out Cryptist was sort of right. From SonsOfLiberty:
So the reason for the huge size is structural design rather than artwork. Regardless of your system and monitor, you're downloading at least three versions of the graphics!
This sort of thing is why many will NEVER support a dev at least until they have a completed game (that isn't a rushed ending.)Said by someone who doesn't pay a cent always makes me laugh a lot. Envy is a bad thing, like stupid gifs

Don't intend to sound entitled here, but just to cite my 2 cents: Have to agree a bit about the size of the game being obnoxiously unreasonable.
I understand that main stream games follow the same concept about "render quality on demand" but there it's the GPU there that renders the graphics, so it makes sense that all support/technical files are downloaded in parallel. Here in Renpy however, where each image is pre rendered from dev side, forcing all size types in one build, might be cleaner for the studio to manage, and hardly something that'd phase a player with tons of space to spare, but it's not exactly an ideal approach. Generally I stockpile games in one go and play them overtime, so having a game that nearly eats 22GB when most others with comparitively similar image quality and content barely even take 10, is a bit of an eyebrow raiser.
But I guess to be fair, it's understandable. I can imagine what a headache managing 3 builds of 720p, 1080p and 4k separaetely, while also exporting them for Win, Mac and Linux platforms simulatenously, would be. The amount of troubleshooting and bug fixing for each release would be an incredible hassle, so this approach, while definitey not ideal for the end user, does make some sense.

I think part of the extreme size is the voice. It was a reasonable size before that was added. At this size non-paying won't be able to get in one session from Mega and at least one other, and the other ones the slow speed will take days.
Damn, didn't even realize this was finished. Stopped paying attention after like ... Season 1?

It's not finished. They're working on Season 3 now.

The dev has many employees right now, he said it's not feasible that everybody works in the main game, so, there are different teams that work in the side projects. In theory, this DLC doesn't interrupt the main game development.

It's that simple. I don't know how they have trouble managing 3 different builds? It's not even an issue. They only need 1 base game code and have renpy build executables or launchers for each platform Windows, MacOS and Linux which can be shipped altogether since they don't take that much data. Then just package it with each different graphics resolution separately.
If the developers were smart enough and had common sense they could have designed and coded the game, mostly the user interface that is in a way not dependent on a fixed resolution. That way they only need render their 3D graphics into 2D still images or video once into their highest wanted pixel resolution and then just downscale the results of that into the most common lower resolutions like 1080p and 720p.

Howdy all - Quick question? I just found this game - and I really like it but when I went into Season 2 the transition was really well done but now - I have progressed to the point where you help Susan with the Hell Angels order - and she goes and tried on the clothes - and it cuts to this page and I get stuck there and nowhere to click to get me out of there - I would appreciate any help - When I choose the clothes it goes back to this page but if I click again it shows all three again - Thanks

It has everything that comes with Season 2, so if that is part of the game, then it is there.
Because they make nearly $30k a month alone from Patreon, more than you and most people will see their entire life.
