Not the same person doing those two things. Plus, artists doing commission work generally produce at a significantly lower pace than in-studio artists. And they have an unfortunate tendency to suddenly get tired of doing the work and quitting halfway through.
Personally, I much prefer the choice of getting the story and main mechanics out in full before focusing on polishing. There are too many examples of games that never got their stories and main mechanics finished, because the devs focused on the other stuff to a point where they lost the sense of what they can actually accomplish. And usually when the to-do list starts looking endless with donors asking for meaningful progress, the devs either start making excuses for lack of it or just entirely disappear.
I think there's way too many games that never finish because of what you're saying. The reason why Queen's Brothel grew so much is because I pushed the story forward without worrying about art being finished. That way people were introduced to all of the characters, even if they were all black and white.
DAAang bro don't be so mean ! I can add a "Disable Voices" button in the settings for the next update.
I guess that is a fair counterpoint. Focusing too much on one or the other can be equally harmful. That said I do hope we get more focus on the basics soon because it does feel a little rushed in that department.
Here, this brings you to the very end of the game.
Haha, didn't mean to be mean.... I'm pretty sure all smut with voice acting is full of cheesiness and cringe.
its pure cringe, if you going do voices, hire good ones, they are all annoying
