I hope Dev doesnt burn out working on two games at the same time. Honestly he should just finish this one before going back to WIAB. Nevertheless this is top notch stuff, because of Bella.

yeah I agree. we might as well follow Monetka_ and start posting pictures of pretty girls from the game. if someone doesn't understand something after three pages of explaining, well, there's nothing we can do

Id rather wait for an official update than get a beta one. Ive waited this long to get a beta now would be a lil disappointing. I could wait longer for the real deal.

I made this Table regarding Summer's Gone development. I am open to corrections.
- RW = Rework
- A Cinematic is made out of 5-25 single animations with 60-300 frames each.
- The Development Time is also dedicated to WiAB which is the Developer's Second game.

Same, I will also wait and I usually pass up beta releases to wait for full releases due to the beta usually missing scenes, choices, interactions, etc. Plus with Ocean, the full release usually isn't too far after the beta release.
Awesome! And shows that aside from chapter 3 development isn't even that long. I mean 8 months for a quality update like we can expect from Ocean is completely doable.

While I appreciate your effort, it may be that the table does not represent Ocean's work correctly. Keep in mind that he was also working on WIAB in parallel with SG. I'm not sure to what extent Ocean has published figures on this, but so far he has always been very transparent about it. Maybe you should also include the development of WIAB in the table.

Yeah, I had the same thoughts as you but I was confused as to how should I explain that in the table itself in a way that will be easy to understand. I still don't know how to.
People often ignore the notes but I highlighted that point, so I can only hope that they read it
"Animations" sounds like I made like 5 animations in total in Ch3. lol
I think it's better to call them "Cinematics" as each cinematic is made out of 5-25 single animations with 60-300 frames each.
