But, that's the thing... exactly.
You are open, you explain your reasons, even when you need to keep something hidden. I never felt spoilered. Much to the contrary, I felt enticed, teased. But never felt ignored.
This process of building an AVN, while similar to writing, or coding, it is neither. Let me try to explain.
When you are writing, you don't have a permanent dialogue with your public. You write in isolation, maybe, sometimes you have one family member to trade ideas with, or a publisher. I know, from personal experience, that that isolation, while needed, may very well kill the project.
Coding isn't much different, except that you need to periodically break isolation to "test", but never, oh the horror, in production. So, limited exposure to Public.
Here, on this AVN building world, it's a mixed bag, you create in isolation, yes, but always "test" in production. Yes, there's probably beta testers and the such, but, each release is a test in production.
And, that is the kicker. While most Dev's act like "The Author" on their Ivory towers guarded by the Elephant men. You set up shop on the market. Yes, you still retire to your Dungeon (hopefully filled with fillies) to create, you always come back out to the market to have a chat with the passersby.
This isn't common. You may look around that market, you may very well be the only one.
And always (almost always) with a smile and looking like you are having the time of your life. Thank you.
Peace
