In hours? I dunno, depends how fast you read. Probably 3 or 4 hours?
Yes.
The game should be around 30 chapters, we're at chapter 4.5.
Next update (chapter 5) will conclude the first season, so it'll be more polished.

Thank you for the reply!
Wow, the story is still a ways off then. 25 more chapters still to go- all the while while also developing Where It All Began.. At this pace, it sounds like it will be a while before either of them will reach the end.
Guess I'll play what there is currently and then swing around in a year to check up on it.

I would love to see some light shed on this. For years I've been going crazy wondering why I liked the old SG so much and like this newer version so little. I've mentioned multiple times before that in the early days the dialogue was SOOOO fucking much better. Much more profound and impactful than what we have now. The story was far more emotional. Much more was left to interpretation than spoon fed.
If that, let's call it "theory" really is true and Ocean was collabing with someone else, or took over the project for someone else, that would explain why I've been getting more and more turned off with each new update. What I liked was someone else's vision for the game.

The story was always Ocean's, but the first chapter and some of the second (original) was made by Regium, towards the end of chapter 2 (original) Ocean had to make renders too, since regium was not advancing with the work (you can search in the first days of this thread) and by the beginning of the development of chapter 3 Ocean was left alone.

Thank you, that was more informative than the last person who tried explaining it.
Last time it probably got lost in translation or something.
Either way, next update will determine if I give up on this title or not.
Such beatiful graphics and loads of hotties. This all could've been put to good use instead of this glorified blue ball story drag.
Ocean is definitely really great making art, there are very few games out on F95 which come even close. With DAZ stuff devs like Palegrass(Lisa), Zetan(Desert Stalker), Guter Reiter(Exciting Games), 1Thousand(Deliverance, Cybernetic Seduction), Stoper (Jessica O´Neill), After Choices(Free Pass), Dimajio333 (Lost in Paradise), L&P (A wife and mother) and while there are a couple more, it starts to thin out with graphics level soon after them. (Stoper and L&P are slower than the continental drift though)
For Honey Select, we have Caribdis(Eternum), GiL3D(Pale Carnations) and Ollane (Tomie wanna get married) the absolute Gurus with HS. Look at their games what is possible with this render engine.
But I think Ocean´s biggest enemy when it comes to graphics is time. He is one of the absolute best with DAZ and Blender (esp. as a more or less 1 person with some helpers show), still the graphic and art programs are pushing forward. Just take Unreal and Krita as examples together with the new Randomiser and AI stuff.
I am a real noob with graphics design, but here is the result of my first 10 minutes rendez-vous with "Metahuman", a try at Ayua fanart. Far from the best, but not all too shabby, I would say.
And If I can get such a result with newbie fumbling around, what can the experienced boys´n girls do with such stuff! I think creating art will take some unusual forks and turns in the future.

I think not only many SG fans will agree with you, but also the developers of another wonderful VN

I'm happy Ocean helps other developers with helpfully tips, VN with Ocean's rendering qualities are very rare. We need more games like that.I think not only many SG fans will agree with you, but also the developers of another wonderful VN

Agreed. Makes it feel more like a cohesive group, rather than a bunch of selfish wankers.

Havent played many games, but from the top titles on this site Ocean's games are the only ones that have that cinematic feeling and nearly every render is wallpaper material
We really need more devs that focus on that, it really makes the games stand out and unique

I'm pleased to see dev's helping each other and giving credit - but I also like the shared universe where we get cameos of primarily the women from other VN's. This is a good plug for other creators and gives me at least one new VN to check out.I think not only many SG fans will agree with you, but also the developers of another wonderful VN

Why did Ocean make the background/side girl so attractive? Now people want to bang them. (if we get a chance)

This is true. I don't remember seeing an "ugly" girl in this game. Ocean set the bar high in both games...

I hope Mc's whole thing about only getting hard for girls he loves is over and we can go the full manwhore route. but on the other hand, it didn't fit Mc's current personality.

That's it. I am so picking this up after I finish City of Broken Dreamers. Even if it is a long way from completion, I need to check this out as WIAB left me quite hanging..
