Well, you don't have to listen to everything she says, that's why there are choices. :)
Also a choice to no worry about other ppls thoughts but you did that's why there is a ignore function God gave u ;) but as I said IT WAS MY THOUGHTS IM ALLOWED TO HAVE THEM AND AS I SAID why waste time making that part after each chapter waste of time for dev n ppl who supports the dev...they basically paying for a game with commercial breaks

Just because you have "thoughts" (sic) doesn't mean people should ignore you and no one's saying you're not ALLOWED to think that, so take it easy.

Becca as an avatar for the dev is, for most players, a nice touch as it installs a sort of relationship between us and Nottravis and it gives to the whole game another layer of complexity. You don't have to like it, of course, but know that many do, and that's okay too.

All perfectly valid opinions Izzabella. I feel I need Becca at the start to explain the mechanics but I do try to make her skippable, and I sorta need her for the results at the end and ofc the dev stuff can be skipped as well. But I do see where you're coming from.

There is a small hint system in place for key points but to be honest the game is just too big for me to include everything in it. But I'll have a think and see if I can it more wide ranging in some places.
Well true I just think after each chapter is a bit much and alotta work to put in...but then again u did put a f.u button in it lol I prob wouldnt mind it if like it didn't feel like it took u away from the game....like if mc dreamed talking to her and woke up each chapter and thinks what a wired dream lol .... something like that were it doesn't feel like it's just another dev taking u away from the game with all the HEY I WANNA BUG YOU FOR A SEC TO EXPLAIN SOMETHING.....sorry it triggers my hate for tutorials haha

1: Becca is hot and there is some fun stuff in those tid bits
2: the explanations bring a sense of closeness as Huitieme says
3: Jane is hot and there is fun
4: Those take up a very small amount of the content
5: think what you want if that is allowed in your country of origin. I do, and I enjoy Becca content very much!

Why yelling exactly ? It's a forum for people who have the legal age for pornography, so you're supposed to be adult ; plus, despite what they think, no kid looks older because he raised his voice.
And if it's just for emphasis purpose, then you can put the text in bold. Not only it would make your comments way more pleasant to read, but you would also be took more seriously, since you'll looks less immature.

But, well, this are just my thoughts and, like you said yourself, I'm allowed to have them. I would add, what you forgot, that I'm also allowed to express them.

How many hours do you put into this game a day? I saw the change logs and how many renders are in each chapter and in the animations. Thousands and thousands.. I cant imagine it to be honest. I assume not each one was
individually posed in daz or w/e but still these are large numbers..and the lines of code..jeez.
I'm generally working on it every day to a greater or lesser extent. Things like batch render etc help a lot of course, but the PC is almost always running and rendering something 24/7 which probs explains why I keep knackering it ofc :)

As to the animation posing it varies. Some of the more small simple ones are just start at X on the timeline and finish at Y, but the lewd animation in VR for example did require an awful of frame by frame manipulation especially things like the close up penetration. That one part took me most of a day to set up before I was happy with it.

So after playing the update for a few hours, I can say that I found most of the hidden content of chapter 3 (and man, were some of them hidden well). Most of them got a laugh out of me, especially the Channel 7 content. Shame that you don't have much time to do more things in one playthrough but I liked that you address it at the end of the chapter.

I'm a bit puzzled as to why at the end of the night, your only option is to go play VR games with Sarah, when before that, you had to carefully choose with whom to spend time with.

My only complaint would be that the shooting sections were so short :cry:. It was nice that you had to consider your approach when fighting the giant bug but after showing all those impressive guns, I really wanted to try some of them.

It was like showing a full flask of water to a thirsty man in the desert and then he only gets to drink a tea cup's worth. :coffee:
I'm sure those will become available in the next chapters, though. Can't wait. :)

Thanks again for your hard work and dedication.
Thanks :)

The evening choices in Three are restricted to Sarah VR, Sarah Caverns, Annie and Sarah drinks and a Chris visit but which ones pop up are choice dependant ofc. But, yep this is fewer than in two down to the plot reasons. Annie is on the Vanguard running overnight tests and everyone else is in Walkers meeting. Frustrating perhaps but I needed them in those places for what comes next.

Speaking of what comes next however, in Four you get two evening choices. One for early evening and one for late evening but you'll understand if I don't say more about it than that for the moment.

On shooting, I wanted to get the mechanisms right and locked down before unlocking all the weapons (although they will be all available) and ofc in this chapter we only have the two potential targets which limits the combat scope. However, as you've guessed that won't stay that way for long depending on what you decide to do. Glad you liked what there was tho!

I cannot get the scene with Kelly in the mess to trigger, or the scene with Kelly and Chris in the gym (Chris Romance route). Any pointers?
Are they coming up on the free roam map for you? It shouldn't matter whether they you go on the mission or not as they don't happen until after Walker has returned.

Thanks. Looks like a stupid typo on the C3 section. I'll give it another day or so then issue a patch. Five bugs in 19,000 lines ain't great....but not too terrible either.

Wasn't meant that negative. Forgot to use smileys.... I really like the setting and tags. Too bad there arent more of this kind of games here....
Thanks. I honestly didn't see it as a negative comment myself. I mean, I have the same view! :) In an ideal world I'd be throwing out a chapter every couple of months.
