Looking at the duration of the dev cycles (especially this one), it seems the upcoming chapter is most likely gonna be "good" at best and very underwhelming at worst. There are way too many LIs
Not really, five is a very reasonable number. It's not so difficult to handle five love interests, a lot of popular AVNs even deal with more. On the ther hand, there's maybe to much focus on Helen :sick: or the ember girls.

Agreed. But at the speed the story is progressing and the amount of time it takes between updates, any reasonable number becomes unreasonable and downright annoying. And for real, they better reveal something interesting about Helen (like she's a hot, undercover detective in disguise who's here on a investigative mission, idk) in the upcoming updates, because at this point I can't see what's she bringing to the story.

Helen is only there to give Mike something to do while MC is poonhounding the main LIs.

Or maybe MC is there to fuck everyone, and Helen is there to fuck everyone up.

But really, for now her name, Helen, is ironical. If later it is revealed, she actually lives up to it, that would be a sweet surprise.

Am I the only one that don't care if an AVN ends or not? Unless the game has an engaging mystery that I want to be solved what should I care for the ending?
I care to have good content per update. If this game or any other I like gets abandoned what makes me sad isn't that I haven't seen the ending, what makes me sad is not getting more content.

I do think it’s a shame when something becomes predictable like that, especially when you’re somewhat invested yourself. In my opinion, many devs already fail at the planning stage or the overall vision they set for themselves. A lot of them don’t even reach the stage that Summer Heat has reached — and even here, there’s still a lot that needs to be delivered in terms of story and everything else.

I think it bothers me less if the yearly updates actually provide content that has impact. That’s what’s still missing for me here (especially after the last update) and what I’m hoping the upcoming update will make up for.

It’s only logical that many projects with poor pacing eventually fall apart — unless they’re the really big ones with thousands of subs, where the creators can easily live off the money even during long pauses. You just have to accept that you can’t change it anyway.

So I try to think in stages now, and I just hope for solid content from update to update.

i'd say about the same, on my top fav actual avn yes i want see them through precisely cause the scenario get me captivated, for all the others like you its more in terms of content by update. I have finished very few in fact.
