I was disappointed to see she de-emphasized the BBC fetish and just made it big cocks for Lena to be into. I was hoping Ian/Lena could have something of a QoS ending that we never got in GGGB
Well, she "kinda" did if Ashley stayed with Eric but made all the other right (or wrong) choices. But I'd hardly call what they had in the end an actual relationship. Ashley just went all evil super-cunt, despising and using Eric through to the game's conclusion. Not really a satisfying ending based on the writing. Ash staying with someone she absolutely despised, just to toy with him, was a bigger stretch than the three she got at the pool party. The tracings at the end of that path were from some of the worst porn imaginable, too. But TBF, the ending was there.

At this point in ORS though, dildo will be retconned to pink with green polkadots by chapter 11. I just know the original set-up was supposed to be Ian watching Lena take that ridiculous Darth Vader Dong on stalkerfap, jacking like crazy while he did it, thus further opening the path you described. But with the recent retcons, including Bleached Billy, it's clear Eva's intentionally going back on those plans quite a bit, possibly due to a number of fans gripes with that content or worries about negative reactions on Steam.

Yeah, this update has taken a long time... but Eva is my favorite developer by far and one of the best developers on the site. So many games push out an update and it's about 10 minutes of content for a 5 month wait. Horrible. Eva's chapters are longer and longer and they are meaty.

Eva never disappoints and through 2 games now has only shown that she wants her games to succeed.

Just a FYI, and because this narrative REALLY needs to die.

F95 brings about a tenth of a percent of Patreons. That's what some data has shown to another dev.
So no, this forum doesn't benefit the developer. You are WAY MORE susceptible to get new patreons from Discord than from this site.

As for raising awareness yeah, sure it does. But with the types of posters we've had lately I doubt it's positive. Again, Discord proves to be way more tempered and most of people's time and energy is usually spent actually discussing the game. Not ruminating about whether or not Eva stole the money to fly away to the Caribeans.

Same. I get why she did it but it was a bit unnecessary imo. There's still potential for some really good and hot routes though (like with Holly) so hopefully those end up being pretty good

Must be a vocal minority. Blacked has been one of the most popular porn studios out there for years. The market is there and, ironically, she'd probably have a huge boost if she got the courage to go all in. She almost nailed it in GGGB

Yeah there's still some hot stuff, and we still do have Jeremy and the bouncer even if Billy got retconned. Did she say why she did it or are we just assuming it was outcry from the "money"?

Uff - thats a hard decision to make. Not sure what I want tbh.

Now we will probably get the full chapter 10 around Christmas in the best case - more realistic is Feb/march? Chapter 9 released in Nov 2021. Yes we got the remaster, but that is not a really the same as a new chapter.

Then its a whole year for the new chapter (from ch9 remaster, april 2022). And sure - she says that the half 10 chapter is as big as chapter 5, but hey .. that is maybe the problem ^^

I think she should have tried this approach (Ian now, Lena later) for chapter 10 and see how it works for her and the players. After that she could try to change how she handles the next chapter - maybe more switches to get a shorter update with both sides out for chapter 11 part 1/part 2.

But ok - now we have to wait ...

Hi am new to the game and enjoying it so far. I was wondering though how much of the game is completed? Are we talking 25% or 50% or something else?
Hard to say, the developer hasn't really set any hard end goals outside of it being at least 20 chapters. So, provided she ends up completing the game, under 50%?

Seeing that some major arcs are barely getting started, I'd say 25% at most. If compared to GGGB and the state of Lena's corruption currently, I'd even go so far to say it's less than 25%. But I could be way off here as we don't really know how far Eva is going to take it in ORS.

Nope. Just us making guesses. But I'm assuming a few things. Key word "assuming": #1. 2020 happened and that sort of content geared specifically to race is growing even more out of favor by a larger genpop, at least in porn. That same zeitgeist has done the exact opposite just about everywhere else, ironically. (The latter strongly drove the former, I suspect, but won't bore you with why). #2. Eva's self-doubt may be getting to her on some ORS themes too closely reflecting those in GGGB and maybe doesn't want to seem too predictable or one-note (or that her games have a recurring prevalence for certain fetishes... a la EvaQOS). #3. The previously mentioned griping + perception & accessibility/controversy concerns.

From some of her early comments I think she's gotten too hyper focused on making it different from GGGB. Which, you don't want to just copy paste a previous game but at the same time it's ok to have similar themes and still make it good.

Hmm... makes sense, I guess. By the metrics I'm seeing, like pornhub trends, google trends, and so forth, IR porn isn't going out of favor by that much. Peaked in 2014, long before Eva even began or 2020, but the trends look stable.

Kinda silly considering it's basically a sequel, set in the same universe. If people play one game, of any genre, they would normally expect to have the same ideas be explored again in the next game, right? Anyway. Yeah, whatever the reason, my expectations are lowered. And this delay, oof...

Agreed. I strongly suspect making it different is a large part of it. But porn is a unique form of media where (theme-wise at least) when it works, it works.

Car designer: "Last year's model was just too 'Round Wheels'.. So 2021. I'm thinking we gotta go with rectangles, this year. Really mix things up."

Plus, I mean, there's only so many ways you can do sex. Especially in a game based on present-day young adults with so many paths already. Repeating a sexual theme shouldn't be such a big concern, especially considering she was drawn to writing that path in the first place. Feels like setting limits out of fear of your own limitations.

Well, yeah. It's not totally dead yet or anything. But interest in that niche has declined more rapidly over the past few years. Niches move with culture, to be replaced with other equally divisive ones. Predicting an upcoming wave of gen-z content creators, I'd wager $1000 on catgirls with dicks. A bet I'd rather lose, but it all still spends the same.
