At this point I'm 90% sure in the next chapter we'll come full circle. Meaning we will see the entire scene from the flashbacks at the beginning of this game. And the man from those flashbacks is Rob's dad. Also the next scene will most likely be Rob with Mika and Anya. So yeah MC is cuck at that point

I don't think I've ever felt more validated in cancelling a Patreon sub than I am now for having done so after Ch 4 release.
The author pulled a bait n switch in Ch 4 with the "lol jk didn't actually send those pictures to the photographer", then proceeded to milk 3 months of sub fees to release an update with not only less sexual content but more tame sexual content than the first 2 chapters.
It's 4D cuckoldry and it's abundantly clear that the original story progression of this game has been corrupted by its popularity, or was an outright manipulation to bait you into monthly payments. I mean look at the title of the game lol... The vast majority of the content is about people other than the dude's new girlfriend; she's hardly even a side character.

idk so mater-of-factly seemed like i missed the part where ya'll bemoaned the sound being an issue, considered that it may be feasible to fix, you were discovered by the old logger who recognised your birthmark from the bardsong of his childhood... pulled the stone from the sword yada yada yada _ patch.
or just what;s the deal with the hmm's what i'm askin
..Are the long sections of black screens during H sections there in the Patreon version?
Just wondering if it's content that's being held back for the public release.

Just didn't like it - made a quick fix for myself. And, as I already have it, why not drop it here?
But if you are so interested:
It's 1 voice-line for every girl - which is messing up how the characters are sounding in my head every time it plays. Because it's 1 voice-line for every personality.

lmaooo yeah, as much as I like the game still, I can't deny I agree with all of this. The photographer story progression was shit, and I was wary of the game slowing down and milking the players more once the developer decided to start incorporating animations. They always say "it's somebody else doing it yadda yadda", but organizing the person to do it and coordinating with them etc always adds to the workload, and I guess we see where it leads.
Also, I just realized how true what you said about the sexual content being tame was. The Anya scene was hot as fuck, but it was her imagination. It's kinda wild that the borderline only actual sex scene we got was Ari blowing Sai, who a) are already a couple, b) we already saw doing the same exact thing in text messages/pictures that Ari sent to Violet and c) they are already a couple, and we already saw Ari sucking a black dick in a gym bathroom. 3 months for regression is wild.

1-2 months. People will throw up graphs, piecharts and whole fucking diagrams trying to predict release cycles but 1-2 is a safe bet. CH 5 was longer but I think that can be chalked up to rendering difficulties and the dev being a perfectionist. Reportedly the renders undergo a lot of manual processing in photoshop.

It's 2 months that he stated his goal is between releases, but that is just a goal. And yes, there is crap tons of photoshop at play, as somebody who uses AI you can't do things like the VIP booth scene or the dance sequence or even the kitchen scene without a whole lot of photoshop.
That being said, the next release is the Anya POV apparently, so that should be sooner than 2 months.
Also on a side note, just want to note here the discrepancy between what the minority here say (who tend to be as we all know, mostly the exact same complainers over, and over, and over again but still follow the games development religiously for some reason) and what the actual paying customers say. Because I checked and the games patreon numbers continued to climb post release, even post leak.
And at the end of the day, beyond all the silly arguments and whatever, that's what matters. The fact that more and more people continue to enjoy and pay for the content.
In any case, the two mini releases will both be almost entirely sex scenes where I'm sure various things will progress.

Dude, even the developer himself(Fully aware that you did read it, duh. Thought my last post would put an end to this because clearly you're not even trying to discuss the game but rather have a little rant about me challenging your points in regards to the route you think "is needed" without ever addressing my question as to how you think this could play out. Which was a genuine question, by the way.
Me thinking otherwise is riling you up so much so that you feel the need to borderline insult me in every response instead of having a somewhat mature discussion. We can always agree to disagree.
That's funny coming from someone who is here literally every day replying to my posts, engaging in this back and forth.
What exactly is my thesis? I could ask you for the ~fourth time how you think a non-existing, non-ntr dom corruption route would play out in a kinetic novel without choices while not having to turn it into a choice based VN instead or rework half the game in order for you to have what you think "is needed". I could also tell you again that, had CG wanted this route in the game, it would probably be there (is that why you're ranting over thesis'esque replies? lol). It's cool that you changed your terms from "it's needed/dev should do it/market/demand" to "just saying what I wanna see", but maybe you should've said that from the beginning. Atleast then I wouldn't have replied because everyone obviously wants different things.
That is quite literally what you've been doing the past 3(?) days. If you don't wanna engage in the discussion that's fine, but...that's what you're doing? I would much prefer to talk about the game, but you're just out here to fight instead of answering a simple question. I mean yes, my replies tend to be thorough. Want me to apologize for it? lol
There we have the child again. I've been part of this forum for ~3.5 years. That's like 1-2 posts/day. Yeah, those 5 minutes really are destroying my life preventing me from going outside. Damn I've been caught! Come on, that's the kind of thing a butthurt teenager would say. lol
Wall of text achieved! Now you can cry again.
) doesn't try this hard to defend his own game. Don't you have anything to do?Although I aint reading what he wrote. Im sure he is right. Besides what is the dev gonna do? Defend himself from ppl who wont argue in good faith?Dude, even the developer himself(

There is ton of composing but the hard part to me are the several layers for the animations! With still frames you can always fix stuff but for the animations you cannot. If your layers are not very fine tuned, even the guy in charge of animating them won't do miracle... That part to me is probably the most time consuming when it comes to compose images...

How far is AI with working out animations, i mean is it capable to do it that way like in rhis game already?
not really that useable for main action. AI struggles with consistency, and animations need to be many frames per second with subtle variation... not really playing to the strengths of the tech.
the animations you see in almost all games are done manually, not with AI
No AI can't create animations yet, for animations you need to create them yourself as developer, it no like Honey select or Daz which are 3D models with bones you can move and create animations.
