That's a big understatement, because about 99.9% of ORS players think so. The rest are either schizophrenic or alien AI, like our Canto™ dude. Although, he kind of falls under both...
In that case, I guess devs create this annoying character on purpose :)

Looking back at the way the development time evolved in the past year and a half, we can see an ascending trend.
ChapterPeriod
73 months
83 months
95 months
Remastered5 months
105.5 months + (on going)
The period is not 100% accurate, but is not too far off. Probably the development time will never get back to that 3 months sweet spot. After chapter 10, if Eva manages to find more help and she reduces the scope of a chapter to something that is easier to handle, we might see an average development period of 6 months.

But hey, this is just speculation. There is a good chance that the estimations (from this comment and the previous one) prove to be completely wrong. Just look at what I said last year :LOL: when someone asked: "When will we see the next update?"
Are those the time between Ch.7 Alpha and Ch.8 Alpha or between the final versions of each chapter?

right? i was so disappointed not finding not even one feet scene in GGGB, even if the drawing was so accurate and sexy. are there some feet content in Our Red String?
i can totally see Seymour being into feet or the guy from apartment Stan? not much into feet myself, but if it's done tastefully i have no problem with some content for it... like nice heels, stockings, foot massage, maybe a nibble or two from the male companions (or female, Louis on submissive route?) :)

I'd like to answer you with a post i made here some time ago.

"I think most people here agree on Robert being a douchebag. Nevertheless Robert has some purpose and relevance in this Game.

Let me explain

1. Game Mechanics wise he provides the opportunity for a couple of Lust Points, which may be needed if you want to start Lenas Corruption early.

2. Robert provides early sex scenes which developers need if they dont want to rely on a) dream sequences or b) flashbacks; and developers need early sex scenes to keep or get the audience interested in their (porn-) game.

3. Exactly because Robert is being a Douche he doesnt railroads Lenas story too early.

4. Robert works as an early counterpart and (weak) antagonist to Ian. Lena can choose Robert one or two times over Ian which is nice for players who either
a) arent into Lena x Ian or
b) like to fight for (and eventually win) their girls (as i do: "Ganbatte (japanese for "Work hard/GoodLuck") Ian!") or
c) like some sharing or NTR vibes in their game (as omg Ian is such a wimp he looses even to a douche!)

5. For dramatic build up developers should not introduce strong antagonists (Axel) or EndBosses (Seymour) too early.
Ian (and Lena) need the chance to level up a bit before they have a fighting chance and can face them on equal grounds.

6. Robert is weak and needy and kinky, this enables us to provide ourLena with some defining traits:
a) does she give in to his demands although he has a weak character? then she may be more submissive than we thought
b) does she play his neediness and weakness against him? using him for her own goals? she may be more dominating or smarter then
c) does she like the roleplaying / cosplaying (i certainly do ;))? here we go
d) do u think kicking his sad butt out of her bed while she is already fucking him is one of the greatest moments in this game?
:ROFLMAO: i certainly do

so no, i dont wanna miss Robert in this game, i am totally cool with him."

My view of Robert hasn't changed in those past months, i think he was purposefully created this way for above reasons.

I am not saying a decent, honest, hardworking and charming Robert would not have posed an interesting alternative narrative.
Since myLena shot down Mike immediately i am not sure about his role, but from what i gathered here, Mike is a cheater.

I recently saw a poll on if and what specific kinks should be incorporated into another game, and foot play was second lowest on that list, only enema scored lower, even watersports, for instance scored considerably higher.
While that poll may be not representative, i think it gives a hunch about foot play isn't that popular and may be already overrepresentated. I personally feel like you get footsies in every other game (which ofc isn't true).

My view on this issue would be, that Devs add foot play to their games, because it is a rather inoffensive kink (again compared to i.e. watersports), which normally doesn't turn away players from a game. But nonetheless it may cater to a rather small community, and since every realized scene competed and won over a different sex scene which could have been done instead, i'd personally see rather fewer of them than more.

Well written, then and now, my fellow german ORS connoiseur! (Apologies if you are austrian or swiss ;))

Foot fetish usually is divisive since most people either love it or hate it so I guess it's generally a number's game: will there be more people buying/supporting it because of that type of content then people avoiding it for the same reason (or, of course, a developer living out his own fantasies). For ORS fetishes are IMHO more of a bonus in certain scenes since the game is story- and character-driven.

It is?
My impression was more like nobody would drop a game over this kink, so it's relatively safe to add a few footsie scenes, because a Dev can get those few who like it without loosing any.
I mean add rape or scat (or any other really controversial kinks), and you are certain to alienate a considerable amount of people. Foot Play doesn't have this destructive potential imo. I've never seen something like "Eeeeew, feet are disgusting! Drop dead Dev for adding this content!"

I am quite neutral on this matter, so perhaps my perception is skewed, usually it's like "Eh, again? Whatever. Let's cum on those toes and get over with." Never would call a game bad for it, but would have instead preferred something else.

To recur to aforementioned poll, only 16.7% voted for Foot Play and i don't think alot of those other 83.3% would stop to play the game if incorporated, whereas 27.2% voted for watersports, and i suspect a relatively high number of those 72.8% who didn't would be annoyed if confronted with this kink. Perhaps it's worth noting, the poll allowed to vote for more than one fetish, so there was no drawback in choosing a specific one.
There are fetishes which aren't particularly liked by a lot of people, but usually tolerated, whereas others are an absolute no go for those who don't like them. Foot Play doesn't strike me as one of those.

You might be right, my thoughts were influenced too much by real-life experience where a lot of people find feet disgusting and seeing footplay is a turn-off; however it might not bother them much in a visual novel.
