Imo not every HS game needs to be done in HS2, HS1 games with mods and good lightning can look very good like this one and Pale Carnations.
I'm wondering if there are even any examples yet of a HS2 game out that looks better or runs smoother than a well modded HS1 game. Carnations and Ripples are some of the best looking games on this site, especially their latest updates.

Ooh, that's true! Eternum is absolutely gorgeous. We're really spoiled, as GPUs get stronger along with more and better mods being made, these games will only improve in quality. And when VR starts to kick off...
Who's gonna take "world's 1st virtual novel"?

There's also DreamLink that's done in HS2 that looks good. I can't consider the game good though. The problem with that one though is that I find the plot and dialogue kind of boring.

If you can look past the "Inspiration" it took from another Game here on this Site...

It's more "The Matrix" or .Hack than Eternum considering there's not multiple realities rather just one dude who's probably strapped into a machine and dreaming. I never said it was a good game, just has pretty renders since the question was asked about good examples of HS2. Jestur already said that he wasn't going to switch over though since he began Ripples in HS1. This is probably the best rendered HS1 game.

My Gripe with it is how the Dev closely copied the Beginning from Eternum and when People called him out for it he denied ever having something to do with Eternum like he made it up. Another User had Photo Evidence how it copied Eternum closely with Scenes from Eternum and the recreated Dreamlink Scene, it should still be here somewhere on the Forum. But I think we should stop now as this is going Off topic now

It'd be cool if Jestur did some streams of him working on shots, especially if they're just non-canon throwaway commissions. As much as people call DarkCookie a milker, I've always appreciated how he lets people watch his workflow and see how he makes his art. I can't recall seeing any high level Daz3d or HS/KK artist show off their process.

He does them, when it's not crunch time, when supporters ask him, and if Jupiter is in Leo while Mercury is in retrograde. They're rare, and I've always just missed them, like he'll be wrapping up a stream when I check the server. Frustrating, but I'm not sure how much value I'd get from it since I don't know jack about Honey Select.

No chance...you should find it out yourself, or maybe if you ask him how he do the magic, maybe he would give you the answer you want...

Now a good time to replay what's out for a refresher? Unless I'm misunderstanding the dev update a few pages back, we're getting close to the next chapter?
