I wouldn't drastically separate the 2 stages and say that we're moving to resolutions. Act 1 is over or almost over, transitioning into Act 2, where the buildup that happened in Act 1 picks up the pace and moves into the different juicy scenarios. There will still be build-up but instead of "unlocking" love interests the game will focus on character development, not only of protagonists but NPC characters as well. (snip) But yeah I doubt the story will continue its slow-burn build-up speed, that stage has been passed. Now the events have to play at a more rapid pace, but I hope Act 3 won't speed up even more, turning into mindless fuck-fest like it was in GGGB. And hopefully with more time spent on the writing, that will be avoided.
I think that we are saying the same thing. My point was purely that it is to be expected that EK would slow down the writing as the story develops, because she has to make decisions about how she wants to steer the story - she doesn't have all the options she had earlier, because the story has precluded some options on various paths.

The argument that I was countering was that she was slow because she was slow delivering the latest update because she needed "a more reasonable work schedule instead of a [sic] erratic one" and that "if she has a pattern and a deadline she puts on herself, that can probably alleviate these problems." I don't believe at all that those ideas are the reason or the answer.

You trying way too hard to look smart and as if you knew about writing process talking about RR Martin and Tolkien when we can tell you don't know the first thing about writing, pal.
If you were to compare ORS narrative arc to any fantasy book (as you did) we wouldn't be getting to the climax, on the contrary, Frodo/hero just left the Shire/initial town.
We're done with the beginning (introduction of main characters, traits, themes, drivers, etc), with next update we getting into the middle. Which in most stories is the hardest to write to be fair as normally is the most boring so authors struggle to make it interesting enough for people to remain hooked lol
Whatever, "pal." I am sure that your contention that JRRT and GRRM demonstrate nothing about the writing process will get you far in discussing writing with others.

Agreed. Hoping for a much more mindful fuck-fest, with well-thought-out character development as they bang.

I'd wait 3 Months for a new ORS update because I think it's a much better game than GGGB. Sadly, it's just my wishful thinking.
At this point I would be happy if EK would commit to a release date and a regular update cycle. I know creative process bla bla (insert all the usual responses here). What I find more annoying, even in the comments on Patreon under the updates, if legitimate criticism is uttered within minutes some white knight crawls out from under the woodwork. Usually with the same age old responses: "Does she not deserve a break?" "Can't things happen in the development process that are unforeseeable?" that may all be true but it also deprives/relieves EK of the responsibility to engage with that criticism.

I don't mind some fuck fest. It's a porn game after all. I think you can drive yourself crazy trying to make it into high literature and going overboard with obsessing over every little dialogue to make sure it isn't too close to GGGB. I think a good balance of the new and old, of good writing and down and dirty porn, is the route to go imo. I think in some regards ORS has done that and in others not as much but I don't think ORS could be called an outright downgrade either

By mindful, I was thinking more along the lines of Lena donning some Victorian Era garb and giving Ian's asshole a thorough tongue-lashing + a dainty pinky-finger ball-tickling as he bunghole's a maid-outfitted Holly, grabbing her bony ass with one hand and reading War & Peace with the other as she attempts to play the flute. Perry serves tea.

But your way works, too.
