Typically once a year we get candy, but we all want the sugar hit sooner
If Ocean is 50% done with the renders and he started making good inroads in May, 4 more months of renders, and depends on the post work, scripting etc. In theory he could be getting into that once he's got enough scenes rendered, some of the coding he could be doing while waiting for renders (such as the phone, which it sounds like he still hasn't solved the way he wants).Beanpole loses because currently she's a sidekick of Bella, or a comic relief character. Elsa doesn't have much screen time, but she's the only LI other than Nami and Nia with first hand experience of Nika's past - she lived through Summer's disappearance as well.who the fuck is Elsa, and why would Beanpole lose to her?
I like the idea that the way a character dresses is dependant on how you speak and interact with them, so many games have the 'oh which bikini do you like?' moment and I personally hate that. But the character responding to your actions and dressing appropriately give you an idea of where they're at.
Having said that, multiple paths and an extremely large update are already enough work, this is solving a problem that didn't exist. Hopefully Ocean starts small with it - what happens with renders where two characters have different outfits? Does Ocean do four renders of each scene they're in? What about 3 characters? I think this is something that should be an engine issue rather than a render issue, otherwise we'll hit the continuity errors when they're at college and suddenly everyone's at the base clothing again because 10 characters have a lot of combinations.
