With all the looks Zara's been giving Nika in the recent sneak-peeks, it seems like she might jump him even before their bet happens......

The way the AVN is set up, there has always been the specter of increased workload/render count per update as the story progresses, simply because of the high number of LIs/lewdable characters. It invariably becomes a cascading effect with each update.
I heard rumours next chapter is called Bella's Gone. Apparently the theme of the avn will be to always lose the LI we interacted most with, one per chapter.Unless, over the chapters, more LIs are... gone.
I wonder what number of dialogs would correspond to that figure. Because on one hand 5k is a lot, but if it's going to be scattered across multiple paths and subpaths, and for every line, a new render, then 5k isn't that much.Holy shit the render count
And those render... You can say anything about ocean, but goddamn those are stunning renders.
I imagine each path would have about the same content as Ch5, so all the different paths have a full chapter's worth of content. I'm sure some things will also be just optional like visiting Nia was optional. It makes sense for the branching, but season 1 was 9GB, season two ch1 might actually be bigger, seeing it's 4K res and it's going to be roughly half to two thirds of the entire season 1 render count.
In season one we had only few really active paths, but when all paths will be active and all of that paths are in one update, update size will be huge... Plus what we get from 1080p -> 2160 upgrade. If Ocean only makes updates to few paths, some people will hate that, if he goes for large update and more characters, updates will be slower... Other people will hate him... Actually... It will be not much different as it's now...
Katie is Katie regardless....but obviously for a SG side story, would have to be adult Katie. Which is why i said what I didNuh huh! Nope. I love Vic but you can have her. I'm skipping any future scenes in which she isn't fully clothed. Fuck that. The one topless render of her on the couch after the sleepover will haunt my sleep for years. That shit is nightmare fuel. Silent Hill nurses will give me a boner before Vic
Which Katie though?
Would you mind please share high-res 4k raw previews files? Thank youSummer's Gone - Season 2 - Chapter 1 - Dev Log #9
Hello,
The log is a few hours late. I apologize!
Apparently, when I say, "Sure, I'll come by the Biergarten, but I gotta go earlier to do some work." it doesn't always work out.
Productivity is still going strong.
What worries me, though, is that when I look at the number of renders I've finished compared to the number of scenes that are done...
I fear the update might end up with 5000-8000 still renders. Yesterday, I checked, and this update has at least one scene for every relevant girl. (Yes, including Maja.)
I'd say 5000 renders is a safe bet. That would be double Chapter 5's render count.
I think it will be a great opening to the new season.
There's not much else to say; at least, I can't say much without spoiling a few new elements I will add to the game. I think they will greatly enhance the game's cinematic and high-quality feel.
After the update, I will do a poll to see if you guys liked them.

Signature look of superiority
I'm kinda bummed by the fact that I can't really show anything of the Cheeto and Mila intro scenes... Especially Mila's scene has two big reasons why I can't/don't want to show them.
These are the most innocent renders I could find.
I'll show some Cheeto intro renders in the next Dev Log. I haven't finished the Cheeto scene yet, so my selection is limited.
Mila is also a prime candidate for my Blender experiments. After this update, I'll port that Bibi over to create some test animations & renders with her.
At the moment, I'm still using Sasha for most of my tests, but I can't show her nude yet, so I've got to switch my test models. (I'm currently prepping Miru.)
One word describes S2-CH1: Progress
That's what it feels like.
I'll see you in two weeks!

Lies, Lies, Lies.... All Lies.We all know she the best girl even if she not a LI, some just don't want to accept the truth

It will be a big chapter. I say that because the older previews shows Nika and Bella at college, and right now, the S1 story ended saturday night. It seems we will get more content for saturday nigth, sunday all day, and probably part of monday or full monday. Saturday nigth, Nika will bathe with Mila or Nami i think, sunday will have morning content with Zara and Vanessa probably, sunday afternoon there will be farm with friends and dojo with Ayua, sunday nigth will be homework with Bella, monday morning there is the first Victoria physiotherapy and classes at afternoon for sure. The thing is monday nigth there is a party at the bar, but I think this will be S2EP2, but with 5k-8k renders, is very possible we get full monday also.
I fell that ending the chapter with the bar opening is a good way of opening the season, it makes sense to ending it right before they go to the bar as well, but with a renders count above 5k might as well go all in.
Ocean already said that wednesday with Amber will occupy a big part of a chapter. So, trying to predict the future, I think chp1 saturday night to monday afternoon, chp2 monday nigth to wednesday morning, and chp3 wednesday trip with Amber till ???.
Ms Petrova is not for the faint of heart.Lies, Lies, Lies.... All Lies.
