BADIK is literally one of the only other AVNs with animation on that level. COBD and BADIK really can't be compared to Summer's Gone seeing as there's a massive difference in support... most notably with BADIK. But I mean that's your opinion, so I can't really argue that lol. I never really paid that much attention to it myself(I must confess), but please consider that Oceanlabs is creating his animations with a fraction(of a fraction) of the support that developers like PhillyGames and DPC are creating theirs with. They both also have a lot more at their disposal in terms of hardware and software.
Honestly, I think I understand why SG is constantly compared to BADIK. When searching for an AVN to compare it to, BADIK is normally the first that comes to mind. I understand that they're in similar genres, but the fact that SG is compared to BADIK so frequently, despite the fact that the story has barely begun, only speaks to its potential in my opinion. Someone used this analogy a while ago, but it's like comparing a startup tech company to something like Microsoft. Quite interesting now that I think about it

Ocean milks those cows the way it should be with one half update by year, I even dare say that he could do less and still receive the same amount of money so props to him for his devotion and hard work (if you are unhappy, you can give him more money so he may buy better materials). If I were at his place, I would definitely give slower update for sure.

Pretty sad, but true. At the current rate; it will take 54 years to make 30 chapters if he releases half a chapter per year. And 27 years if he makes 1 chapter per year. He going to have to prioritize one game.

this is exactly why I praise ocean every chance I get just to balance out the stupidity he has to deal with
not to mention that this fool doesn't realize that ocean is working on the game all by himself with limited Hardware
also keep in mind that the size of oceans updates are absolutely incredible and he gets faster with every update
I was going to respond to the accusation of ocean being a milker
but that accusation is so stupid it hurts my brain
these people do not realize that a game with 30 chapters cannot be finished in two and three years
and what's the hurry anyway last I checked I'm not dying
that's like complaining about it TV show with multiple seasons and saying why is the show taking so long to reach the end
thank you for making me Break My Vow never to comment on this forum
if I may use a metaphor I would like to think of ocean creating summer's gone as a journey and I'm just glad to be a part of it

literally posts like this, few by Lady Fortuna and the development time period table by Ray , should be pinned on top of this thread like the one pinned by a mod about rules for few days when this thread was cleaned up
so those complainers who gonna shitpost here atleast think once -
THERE'S LITERALLY EVERYTHING MENTIONED HERE ABOUT WHICH AM GONNA WHINE HERE what will I get by writing again
1 update a year , 30 chapter , gonna be abandoned , focus on one game only ? some quotes with the same answer which was there on the pinned one , facepalms
c'mon F95zone wont send you a "most facepalms collected on F95zone" trophy to your house
it's literally the same thing repeated every few pages

Their support is that big cause they both finished their first games first, which caused fans to trust them. Ocean is trying to make 2 games at once and if that's the way he wants to do things, that's good for him I guess, but he's gonna have to accept that he'll never get the same amount of support until he finishes at least 1 project so the fans know they can trust him

for ocean working on two games keeps him from getting bored and burned out
if I remember correctly
when he's tired of working on summer's gone he
works on where it all began and
when he's tired of where it all began
he works on summer's gone
it keeps him refresh
but I could be remembering it wrong
For us with the Asian kick, I think I remember reading a certain maternal figure wasn't going to have content. Am I remembering correctly? It's been a while since I think I read it

i wished i liked WIAB but i don't love summer's gone i wish the dev could hit a 6 month update but doesn't seem like that going to happen with 2 games at the same time guess have to get used to 1 update a year which sucks but at the end of the day can't really get mad about free games

Stupidity? Would you argue any of the facts I presented were wrong? I didn't complain about anything neither did I involve Ocean in this, I just asked for everyone's opinions on the matter. But no, you can't have a rational conversation on this topic so you took a break from that dev cock you've been sucking in order to come out here spam "Ocean good re!re!" in that brainless post of yours.
So what if he is working on the game all by himself? Plenty of devs are. That doesn't change the amount of content he has planned, as well as his decision to work on two games at once.
The update size isn't exactly small, but it's not special either once you realise it's a once a year update. I can name 10 developers off the top of my head with similar followings on Patreon which release more content in less time.
...
Did...did you even read my post? That's exactly what I have been saying. That Ocean has to change something because do you honestly expect people to support him for 20-30 years for ONE game?
I'm not even going to try to respond to your second line. I think I lost a few brain cells reading it.

I think that this paragraph is good example of your posting history here in this thread. You start like you are prepared to have serious discussion actually. This memory you keep about your posts probably. But, look at the way you continue! Is it some serious way to get informed? Of course it isn't and it isn't your first post made this way.
As for your questions. They were answered many, Many, mAny, ManY time in this thread. You could find answers in past pages. Don`t expect that there will be many members ready to discuss it with you, because new arrivals with same question will come next day.
Development of this game has its history of reasonable pattern, which led to present state. It wasn't some instantaneous decision whip of developers.

Of course it isn't, I agree on that count. But I wasn't looking to get informed then, just like the person I was replying to wasn't looking to inform me. He was just looking to jump on the train of people who wait for someone to utter one word relating to the development cycle, before launching a rant filled with righteous disdain so that they can continue patting themselves on the back for a job well done 'defending' the developer.
Just like you guys here are sick of people coming here and complaining about the release date, there are people on the other side too who are sick of ones who preach and insult and complain but never really answer their questions.
If these concerns were raised before, that's well and great. If there aren't many members ready to discuss it with me, then that's fine too. But don't pretend like you're willing to have a rational discussion about this issue, when all you're doing is raising completely irrelevant points like "he's working really hard!" (which I didn't even say anything about).
I understand that some people might be fed up of questions like this. if that's the case, then why don't you just shut up and ignore it? Why do you have to go on a rant, thereby increasing the toxicity in this thread? My original post was made in good faith, not once did I insult the developer.
You lost your right to complain about my language when you stopped replying to the posts in a civil way and chose to insult instead.

Oceanlab The cinematics are great (both in this game and WIAB), but they are oh so easily missed with one extra click of the mouse. Can you make small changes codewise(like putting hard pause for 2 seconds or something)? IMO, that would be pretty helpful.

Hmm, i don't know if thats a good idea. Basicly you are right, one sloppy click and the cinematic is gone.
If i just consider myself playing a game and i get a pause like you suggested or a short dark screen, i tend to start smashing my mouse or other buttons even faster and with more force ( dont ask, i know force don't matter for a click ...)
No technical measure protects against human impatience...

Personal opinions mostly I'm guessing, I would never pay a cent for supporting BeingADIK (can't stand the free roaming portions and it has only a couple of LI's that is anywhere near Ocean's quality) but would gladly support Ocean. In my opinion Summers Gone runs circles around Badik especially story and most definitely character wise.
