Most animators that decide to make long animations usually make them last 2-4 minutes; any runtime beyond that is very rare. So who exactly frequently makes 3D animations longer than 4 minutes?
Yes, it's rare finding an animator who mostly does long videos, but they exist. And I don't expect them to release one video every month, I know this takes time.
KGO has been making mostly videos with a runtime of over 7 minutes for almost a year now but it usually takes two months to finish one of those. The last 3 or 4 videos Ogirls made before retiring were between 5 and 10 minutes long. KDE actually wants to make shorter videos but they often end up being longer because he adds scenes during the creation when he wants to tell a story to go with the sex scenes. The latest video is around 8 minutes long, the previous one was shorter and the one before that was 6 minutes long. All 3 videos I know from nicefield are over 4 minutes, one almost 7 minutes. There are a few more examples but I don't want to list every single one.
Some of those were probably even longer because I always edit the videos for myself, I remove or at least shorten scenes were nothing of interest is happening or if it's not important for the short story, if there is some sort of story. Don't remember which video it was but there was one that actually ran for almost 30 minutes but the first 4 minutes were only shots of the enviroment and the protag driving around.
Also we can totally tell you pay for animators given you're on a porn pirating forum debating the nuances of quality work.
Hey, I'm not rich. I'm not pretending to pay for everything I find here, but I actually use this forum to find stuff that's worth paying for in my opinion. And I always pay for something I really like, I want to support artists, devs or publishers that I like.
I don't pay the artists on Patreon or whatever they use every month because I can't afford that, but when they release a new video I subscribe for that month if possible. Sometimes I wait a few months, depending on my financial situation.
Not every animation is the same technically. People who constantly do 4 minute runtimes are probably working on Eevee renders which takes a lot less time to do and to render. Nagoo always makes sure he is able to produce quality instead of quantity. Even small things like clipping, textures, or weird subsurface scattering he will go back to redo and re-render. The plaps are also on varying speeds and intensities. It's not just a loop of the same movement. Even the physics on Yuffie's bracelets/necklace/bikini straps had to be simulated and the hair/cum/boobs had to be baked to move the way they do.
Obviously the art of making animations is not something everyone will appreciate but it's something that I feel needs to be put into perspective. Not everyone does NSFW animations solely for people to fap to. To Nagoo and I, it's an art form. We want it to look good for us (and the Patrons) and fappable second. If it's not your cup of tea, you can just continue to support other animators
When KGO asked if he should switch to Cycles I was one of the guys who actually said he should stay with Evee, realistic lighting or realism in general is not always the better option, especially when the models have a more cartoony and less realistic design. Also many scenes were actually too dark in Cycles, losing a lot of background detail. He took the middle ground by using Evee Next now.
Believe me, I know how much work and time it costs to make those videos and that I could not do it, especially when the animations are as detailed as Nagoo's or Drills videos. But I care more about the content and length than the realism, also the choice of the characters are important for me too. For example I don't care about animators who only do videos with Overwatch characters.
So far there are only 5 videos from Nagoo that I liked enough to keep, even though 4 of them are below 3 minutes or even below 2 minutes. Again, believe me that I would absolutely actually support his works instead of getting them here if I liked most of them.
