I didn't. I said 2-4 a year. and that is an accurate average.

To be fair, representing the release cadence as an average throughout the last six years seems disingenuous to most people who are unaware of the game's history because of how much significantly larger the gap has become; given the last two updates plus 0.18 upcoming would be a single update per calendar year.

I honestly don't mind it though, Runey's given us a lot already over the last six years. Most games would be abandoned by now...

While true, this last year was an exception, not part of the rule at large, and while it does slow down the average, it not indicative of his usual work. The couple before that were a bit slower, but they were also pretty large, especially if you count all the remade stuff, and new assets we created for it. Not to mention new mechanics like the phone and garden.

Personally, I prefer the larger, slower updates, but that's me.

Depends on the results. What a Legend is on that phase of long updates and it's one of my favorites, but at some point things turn into Summertime Saga.

Gotta find that balance.

Remember folks with Runey it's quality over quantity.

My ideal would be 3 to 4 updates per year for Harem Hotel.

 

[divingmedic]

My ideal would be 3 to 4 updates per year for Harem Hotel.

That would be ideal. But look at some other AVN's that we both play, it's 6 months sometimes 7 between each update. I am with the others, I'd rather wait 6 months for a long quality update than 2-3 months for 15 minutes of an update.

Sure, I agree. Yet, based on this game release history, I think 3 updates per year isn't that far fetched, without RL hassle.
But as you know, I take what I can.

Normally, we get 2-4 large updates a year, but this has been a bad year for the dev, so things are going more slowly than usual.

OK thanks for the info, how is the dev doing now? Sorry to hear it's been rough year for the dev.

I have not heard any details in a while, but I presume things are slowly improving.

When it comes to quantity versus quality, lets not forget that Harem Hotels very first release had more content than a lot of the completed games on F95.
You can see people even saying that in the first few pages of the comments section.
