i struggled with myself a lot before commenting on this thread and every time it occurred to me to write something i change my mind, but today is the day!
my experience with this AVN consists of downloading it maybe a year and a half ago and upon opening it i see the warning that it doesn't contain any explicit content yet so i took a pause and came back to this thread and checked when it was first created and when i saw 2019 i made the calculations in my head (3.5/4 chapters in four years and no explicit content yet) i remembered closing it immediately and never in my life i clicked shift+del faster
as for ocean's work in general i viewed his other AVN with all its glory (2 chapters omE) and very much enjoyed it but i'm convinced now more than ever that i will never be able to witness its completion in my lifetime!
you know every AVN developer on the face of this planet wish they were in Ocean's position except for the select few that are in even better position for "obvious reasons" wink, but i can maybe count them on only my two hands: DrPinkCake (100% earned and at least has a finished project to brag about and i own everything he sell on steam including dlcs) Kompas (i don't know anything about) NLT (100% earned and has multiple completed projects to brag about including 2 in my steam library) MrDots (100% earned with a finished project and frequent updates) Philly (100% earned and i also have his 2 AVNs on steam) Lewdlab (at least he has a finished project that i own on steam but recently turned to the dark side) lustandpassion (once upon a time good but also turned to the dark side) Undergrad (i also own his work) Oppai-Man (once excellent but also turned to the dark side, also own his work) those some of the examples that comes to mind
now back to the point of why i stated that every other developer wish they were in ocean's position, in an industry full of scammers like ICSTOR, milkers like StoperArt, HopesGaming, Lewdlab (the last year or so) lustandpassion and the list goes on but at least when i go to those threads fans already have or at least began to see through the bullshit! except with this one and to a lesser degree WIAB!!
this is the only thread that when i read replies on i feel like i'm in some sort of a twilight zone episode or a dystopian utopia! even though people consider this a pirating forum! due to the fact of what i dubbed "Ocean's cult", of which 90% of this thread consist of! btw this is in no way shape or form a knock on you ocean's fans and the fawners amongst you like i said before every other dev wishes they have fans like you! where every other constructive criticism or telling it like it is are met with facepalms and pushbacks from every angle, and the replies are filled with "trust the process CUH" & fan fictions and wishful thinking and scenarios for your favorite LIs that some of you maybe will not witness it in your lifetime.
this is what i call the "life" and the dream for every dev, and once the patreon number reaches the comfort zone and with minimum to not noticeable criticism from pirates let alone paying customers up until recently in a joking manner in the replies here that "wait for 2050 ish to have a finish product" then what's the point!!!!! -_-
i never cared for patreon but i always consider it a plus for artists, but people like ocean made me hate it from the bottom of my heart, and the irony here is as i write these words with a broken heart because like i mentioned earlier i'm a fan of his other AVN WIAB!! and even though it has only 2 chapters but only a few other AVNs managed to grip me with its premise like it has, and after chapter 2 ended and coming to the conclusion that Leia is the "make it or break it" for me and every once in awhile i have these scenarios in my head for her that imho will make a love story for the ages, and i contemplate weather to join the cult and enter the dystopian reality with the rest of you and write my fan fiction for her or not then suddenly reality hits me hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that since the money maker here gets an update once a year!!!!!!! all hope is lost and no chance in hell and there's no light at the end of the tunnel!!!!!!!!! -_-
the other irony here is that i wishlisted summer's gone on this date bellow and once it's release i'm one of the first to buy it and even though i will never touch it just to offset and pay for the 2 WIAB's chapters! because at the end of the day i'm a paying customer (not a knock on you pirates or a flex, i'm in the same boat as you if i like the promo renders and tags for an AVN and in case devs for those didn't release on steam simultaneously i free download and when they release on steam even if i viewed their AVNs entirely already they'll have my EUROs) and if you're a 3dcg devs here and release your projects on steam then you can rest assured that your AVNs is either most likely in my steam's library (near 400 already) and the rest whitelisted (232) and can prove it to anyone who like! have a good night or morning everybody.
