You're missing the point. Stoper is clearly trying to connect the delays with faulty renders by saying he's noticed those issues after he's made a couple dozen of them, while on the other hand mentioning how the fix wasn't all that complex. He's going on and on about what supposedly went wrong, just to suddenly say he won't "bore people with details" as to how he fixed it. It's nonsense. The first render with Jess' wearing that blazer was made as early as March/April (see devblog #116, Jess' arriving at work).
"This is what happened with Jessica's blazer in this update. I had already made dozens of renders with the outfit, when I noticed a weird issue with the edge of the blazer. ....> So I had to find a workaround. I won't bore you with the details, but it wasn't something complex. I had to re-render some images, and it did add an annoying extra step in the workflow for each image where Jess is wearing the blazer. But I like how it looks, so I'll probably use it in again the future, however annoying it may be."
This is literally him setting up another excuse for future use. It is another layer of bullshit for when things take forever, and a way for him to justify it. So when you're saying he's got these problems since the very beginning, you're missing the important part. He's pretending to add another "step" out of nowhere, which is supposedly taking more time, when it was never required since the very beginning. The very beginning you mentioned, by the way. Now tell me he's not straight up lying. He's literally said in November/December last year that he's gonna cut corners on details and clothing to speed up development, and now he's doing the exact opposite. He's also said that his new rig would hopefully reduce the time required for that kind of stuff. But nope, everything is going the opposite direction.
He's never making his own set deadlines and promises. He simply is lying to his financial supporters, period.
No sir, you clearly are the one missing everything here.
You are still ignoring the fact that stoper used to release updates within 2-3 month time with the exact same eye for details while working on other projects like 'Paola' at the same time. You are quite literally contradicting yourself when you're saying he's had these issues since the very beginning, because in the beginning he would still deliver 5-6x the amount of content compared to now.
You can and you do know. See my previous paragraph. Stop being naive.
Stoper is clearly not working much on this game anymore, but instead of being truthful about it, he's coming up with excuse after excuse, lie after lie. And why? Isn't it obvious? To try and keep as many supporters hooked while doing the absolute bare minimum. He is the one who said this is what pays the bills. He is the one who said he's doing it fulltime.
And I am the one saying that's complete bullshit.
Cheers
