Its funny people discuss the immersion breaking basketball match but not the fact that you attempt murder in the first 5 minutes of the VN and after that leave the scene without being asked a single word by the cop about the fired gun, or how the accident you just witnessed happened and then next day go to school and have the same teacher you just attempted to murder be 'dw bro, we cool'
Everything comes of as an amateurish fanfic, edgy for the sake of being edgy.
Its the first time where I agree a rework is a good idea before finishing the game, but not just re-renders, but complete reworked of the nonsensical and cringe inducing beginning of the novel. If I didn't know that the VN gets better as you advance I would probably drop it, so better get that fixed before steam release, because eye candy renders won't carry past the fist impression the story and dialog leaves early on. Thank god the Sovereign speech has been culled...
While some amount of bias in a game specific thread is expected, the amount of cocksucking in here is even beyond what I was probably expecting from places like Milfy City's Patreon page. There is plenty of things to praise about Ocean from the gorgeous character models, cinematic lighting and camera angles which are some of the best I've seen in the genre, characters have unique personalities and the sexual tension between most of them is done very well, music choices that fit the mood of the scenes for the most part.
You don't have to whiteknight him on every aspect criticized.
Extra funny when they chose to die on the hill of Content per Development time. 'Ocean did half of update, but it has more content that most full releases' LOL
They even decide to make direct comparison to Pinkcake
, the man that dwarfs 99% of the developers around in terms of content. How deluded must you be?!
'Oh but he makes more money so he ca do it even faster' Don't even go looking into Acting Lessons, he was pulling 20-30 days per update and almost 800+ renders. By the time he had 500 patreons he was already on Ep6 of his first game. Even now I think he averages something like 5 months and 20 days per update and each update increases in scope.
You can dislike his games, or even himself all you want, that doesn't change the fact that the guy had a clear vision, knew not to over extend himself, delivered and now is reaping the rewards. Meanwhile here we are in the middle of two games, both needing reworks, apparently...
