A couple of years ago, Ocean wrote that he creates 30 renders a day. Last year, he wrote that he optimized his work. After which he wrote that he made about 3,200 renders in 3 months. Now he also wrote that he improved his work, but the result says the opposite, 2,000 renders in 5 months. This information is from the log that came out last summer, you can check everything yourself.
They're in the game folder if you downloaded from here. You have to manually search the folder, they don't show up in the game.
The problem is not that she is conceived or not in the WiaB time frame, but that she is a LI daughter at all. Ocean wants to incorporate WiaB choices in SG, in a manner that only he knows for sure, but is safe to assume that it will include the LI we chose for that game. Let's say that I end WiaB with Elena, Sasha is not my child ? And if she is my child can she be a LI ? The same would be true if the goth girl is Leia's daughter and a LI or any similiar case. Granted it only is a problem if Nika also is a Zane, but that is another discussion.
Why lie on my behalf? I don't think the old renders are bad, especially since Ocean used to do better lighting, and in the new renders you can see that he's slacking off. Although you're right about one thing, the resolution has increased, it was full HD, now it's 4K. But I don't have a 4K monitor, so it doesn't matter to me.
SG starts with the canon path Ayua is a Zane, and we assume that is why Ocean has not made her a LI. If Sasha was also then part Zane, she could no longer be a LI if that is the reason for Ayua not being one. The reason I mention the timefram is that if we believe Willi is Ayua's father, he is unlikely to cheating on the LI he ends up with by the end of the game. I think Ocean intentionally made the time gap large enough to ensure that the LI's in SG can't be the result of player choice, to avoid breaching the ToS. SG will respect that 100%. A player choice in WiaB will not alter parentage of a LI, simply because it's too risky to Ocean's income. While Ocean deals with patrons on that platform, it is a non starter.
3,200 renders in 3 months. Are you sure this 3200 renders were of SG alone? Could be of both games, no? I don't know. Please make sure because this 2000 renders definitely belongs to SG alone.
But that is the reason that I said she might be a problem. Sasha may be or not William's daughter that is why I said she might be problematic to work with, not that she is, but she is old enough and is related to a possible LI. Maybe William get Miru and Elena pregnant close to one another, and who is to say what type of relationship they had 20 years ago ? Miru and William can be in a open relationship, William does not needs to be cheating anyone moreover William is not only a character but is controlled by the player, maybe I want to cheat on Miru or Ellena.
Which update of SG had 3200 renders? THere's your answer. In actual fact, Ch2 was the fastest Ocean's ever rendered, until now. Right now Ocean is rendering faster than at any point before.
I think you're missing my point. There are other things that determine whether a LI can be William's offspring, and that the ToS. Ocean will not write any option in the code that allows that possibility. So maybe Damian's superpower is that he's William's. Or Jeff is William and Gina's
And, exactly because WiaB got nuked, Ocean will ensure SG doesn't. It's his income. No matter how appealing these ideas are, they just won't happen according to the ToS, or haven't you noticed how many games have gone through reworks recently?I am seeing your point, but we are looking at different ends of the problem. Sasha might be a problem because Ocean can't breach the ToS.Is either a problem for SG or is a problem for WiaB. Granted, I am making some assumptions but none too far fetched, either Elena is a LI and Sasha can be a Zane or she is not. But if she is it would be very strange for Ocean give you the opition of ending the story with her, but Sasha be somebody elese child, can you see my point ?Which update of SG had 3200 renders?

Ch2 - 2545 new renders in 248 days, 10.26 renders a day. 2000 renders in 150 days is faster at an average of 13.3 a day with much better quality than before, so that's waht 30% faster, purely based on SG renders, not counting WiaB. Ch2 was also the biggest render count until now.

And yes, it is either or. But until Ocean defines WiaB, we can't really untie the gordian knot.
And it wouldn't be strange to end WiaB without Elena pregnant, because Sasha is too young to be a WiaB pregnancy. If she's 18, and WiaB is 20 years ago... this is what I am saying. Ocean's specifically made it too long a gap for the SG cast to be WiaB pregnancies for a reason ...or maybe it was just lucky bad planning.
Aren't those the cafeteria waiters ? with the purple ribbons I mean. I think at least one of them work as a cam girl as well.
I see your point, but it's too big a thing to implement, and it can only happen at the end once all the WiaB variables are completed. If SG was developed as a sequel rather than at the same time, it'd be possible, but WiaB needs to be finished, and Season 1 of SG has a completed script. Ocean would have to rework the script to implement the save data, and trigger new renders etc. Will that actually be worth it in 10 years time?
Well I think it's more than possible Ocean has a plan for her past SG, but I'm gonna keep hoping for Ocean to be kind.
It's a real injustice especially now that in season 2 she looks so good
At this point I am glad that you can se my point, was going crazy thinking that I was talking nonsense. Couple of thing, yes would require WiaB be finished and it entails more work, but this only is post pond the problem, also this applys to the Ayua situation as well, we may be talking about a problem 10 years from now but it still is a problem. At least if Ocean intents to keep the transfer save idea insted of one canon end, then SG has to make sense in all those variables, and abide to ToS in all those variable as well.I see your point, but it's too big a thing to implement, and it can only happen at the end once all the WiaB variables are completed.

If you avoid Miru, Ayua will still exist no matter what you do. The canon is that Ayua is a Zane, and will be for the next decade until WiaB is finished and saves can be transferred. Would it make sense to you to have a change like that after knowing Ayua is a Zane for that long, having played SG all that time, having seen the whole development of both games already? It'll be ingraind by that point.
Sure Sasha can be Willi's but it's also not a problem if she is. All it means is that Nika is definitely not Willi's if Sasha is. Those are mutually exclusive facts according to the ToS that Ocean abides by. There will never be a problem like that. Ocean won't allow paths to exist that would jeopardise SG, which is his main income. Players will not be able to choose those kinds of paths that would cause problems. You're assuming that OCean will allow choices in WiaB to threaten his source of income. Right now, SG in effect props up WiaB. Simple - in your scenario, Elena and William decide to separate, because Elena gets pregnant to someone else. in the time between the end of Wiab and Sasha's conception, or any variation of things that happen after the player's ending in the year after. Solved.
Also, she is not the only LI that is the daughter of a possible LI in WiaB, we simply don't know what might or might not happen with Daphne, Dana, Mon, Gina, Zoey, Kat... We don't know Elena is a LI right now. Heck other than Miru, we don't know if any of them are
Original intent is lost, along with the old WiaB and the old SG. The assumed original intent is not the current intent or the future intnet. To wonder what might be which won't happen because of the ToS Ocean needs to stick to won't persuade the people Ocean needs to keep onboard. Nothing needs to change in the scrip we hae of SG fro Sasha to simply be a Petrova. For her to be part Zane, Ocean will need to change the script and potentially add in plot lines in 2030 of SG Season 1 right up to wherever he gets to by the time Wiab Is published. And the same for all the other potential crossover choices. I don't think that's a useful way for Ocean to spend time.
Your statement is very questionable from a mathematical point of view. I just can't understand how what you wrote can be faster than: 3200 renders in 90 days, 35.5 renders per day. By the way, Ocean did this last year for season 1 chapter 5, which means he used textures from version 8 of Genesis (8.1-8.2). Now, when he makes season 2 chapter 1, he also uses version 8 of Genesis, so the quality will be the same as in previous chapters. Why did you decide that the quality will improve?
