VN Ren'Py Law School [Season 1] [MisterMaya]

[Chillout1984]

That's pretty much what happens with most successful games, the devs become more ambitious with their scope and that means more quality but also bigger waiting times.

True. Especially now that in season 2 the personality will finally make a difference, that could be the case here as well. It all depends on how personality will have an impact on branching paths.

It could be as simple as just adding some extra scenes with girls that you can only choose with a certain personality and maybe some difference in dialogue to something as complicated as exclusive storylines with many scenes per girl/personality you've chosen. We shall see how it pans out.

I hope so, Law School looked to me like it had a faster release schedule before Steam launching, so I'm starting to worry.

This last year all games I'm playing decided for the once a year BS schedule. So after 4 years heavy into AVNs, these huge gaps are making me becoming uninterested and when I'm actuallly playing one I'm feeling guilty for wasting this precious resource that takes a 1 year wait for more

tough luck. most i play are under 6 months.

So December 12 may be

The episodes are bigger than average, so 6 months so far is really not bad. Shows the dev has been working hard.

But it wouldn't surprise me if they start slipping over that, it's just kinda what happens as the game gets more popular and the bar gets raised, along with likely branching.

I personally dislike shorter episodes that have shorter dev times, every time you play the new update, just as you're getting into it again, the episode ends. I find it very annoying. So while one year is a long time, usually the updates are satisfying.

It just kinda is what it is, but if you have a lot of games in the play-cycle, like double digits, then sometimes you get spikes of multiple updates in a month which then feels like xmas after a long wait.

We haven't got a clear release but looking at the cycle of Mistermaya he will do his best to release in december. That was the goal. And with all previous releases he kept the promise. So december a lot of eyecandy for us.

I love the game, from the original theme and story to the backstories of each character. Plus, the artwork and characters are incredible.

Honestly, I don’t have a problem with Maya’s release cycle. His game is REALLY good, one of my top favorites and his updates are pretty big, whether we’re talking render size or content in general.

I do get your point, though. The longer the gap between releases, the easier it is to lose interest in some VNs. There are a couple I play where that’s already happened, and I’ve actually been replaying one recently just to refresh my memory on the story, but I like that one enough that I don’t lose interest, which is pretty rare for me.

On the flip side, I tried replaying LS just for fun because I enjoy it, but I kept catching myself skipping through large chunks of it. I guess it’s kind of like rereading a book, you already know what’s coming, so it doesn’t hit the same way. But then again, I’ve watched certain movies over and over without ever getting tired of them, so it’s weird how that works. Hmm…

But for LS, the release schedule is what about every 3 to 6 months? That’s not bad at all, especially considering the amount of content we get with each update. anyway, I'm just looking forward to more content with Elsa, Olive and our child-hood friend totally didn't forget her name.

Is there any walkthrough in pdf or something like that? Call me old school but I am not a fan of Walkthrough mods

I don't believe so... but I could be wrong and blind.

Yeah MisterMaya has a fast release cycle compared to other similar devs, my point wasn't that I perceived him as taking too much for each release. On the contrary, it was that I hope he doesn't jump into the "once a year" schedule that's somehow the new norm now, precisely because he in fact had a fast schedule with LS until now and we were approaching the 6 months mark.

6-8 months is very reasonable considering what each LS release has, I just hope it isn't more than 12 months.

I already had to replay the game because I started before the free roams rework.

Yeah, I feel you. I really hope that never happens, but I doubt it will, though anything is possible.

Yea 12 months is definitely waaaaaayyy tooooo loooong.
