Hah... It was the first AVN that get caught me to the genre in general. I bought the whole Season 1 on Steam in the end of summer in '22. Story was silly and I never considered it seriously, especially after look at another games of genre. But it's still my "first one" and I liked the characters and the renders/scenes. I checked updates out from time to time and was curios what is going on and why it takes so long now to release content. Then I learned they hired a whole crowded team and I supposed that it at least will let them to release a 4-5 EPs 2nd season at the end of '23/beginning of '24. But instead of hard work... I just checked the stuff they posting in Steam/news. Useless polls (never ask crowd what you have to do, but do what you planned or at least try to plan something... you'll never satisfy everybody, so the polls is useless, especially when you asking about a major parts of the game like scenes and content), "videos" and extended lewd scenes out of the game. And finally... they decided to release each episode by the parts... 3 parts of one episode !!! So it's mid of the spring '24 now, there are almost about 2 years past since Season 1 was completed and they only did 2 episodes for the new season... roughly 1 episode per YEAR. Having an a huge team, moved from "slow and bad" DAZ3D to "fast and good" Blender. They are SO proud they do a 4k/2k/HD resolution select and separate releases... lol... but content mostly rendered in 4k anyway and then downscaled to HD or 2k if needed... at least most of devs don't dare to do a 4K because of the game files size. There is nothing special or unique here - you just have to save file 3 times instead of 1. Same goes for lewd scenes. Rendered source is a 4k images anyway, then downscale it to what you need if you want.
So, actually, the real major update was the voicing of dialogues and scenes that's also spreaded for the whole first season. But again... it doesn't have to delay or interrupt the development of the new episode... you give voice actors the dialogues and actual game scenes (so they have an idea what moment they are voicing) and that's all. What it have with scenes posing, dialogues writing, rendering of still images, animations and coding? I mean, what the whole huge team did all this time? Even new episodes hadn't increased in size compared to Season 1. It would be ok if each of S2 new episodes would last like the whole 5 episodes of Season 1, but nope. They are short and each episode have only 1-2 lewd scenes. What a nonsense... So in short, for Julia content (even non lewd!) players had to wait for almost 2 years. And the recent reviews of EP2P3 says it all. It's quite short and didn't worth waiting. With such team and effort they'd better to release the whole season per year with episodes bigger than it was in previous season. Instead of this they do less in much more time now. And they still promise the Season 2 release on Steam, lol. Ok, with 3 episodes?
In general, a great example of why a big team and ambitions related to team size will always lead to the opposite effect. It's a pity, but if they don't accelerate several times while increasing the amount of content, this project is dead and this is what is called milking.
