The update was good. I really liked it. Bella and MC, what a couple! The tabletop session is long, but it's okay for me. But damnnn, Zara is a hottie. Guys, is Zara a love interest?
To be honest, I'm not sure. She's in the second page of the gallery. Not sure if it means side girl or not.
But she is hot. I thought so when the MC and her were looking at the display case. I first thought she was ZPR, because of the clothing plus her name was Zara, but I guess not.

Questo aggiornamento ha richiesto circa 8 mesi. Ocean ha detto di recente su Discord che prevede di avere un altro aggiornamento quest'anno, quindi si spera che si riveli vero. Sarebbe bello arrivare dove gli aggiornamenti sono di circa 4-6 mesi, penso che ottenere quegli aggiornamenti in un tale lasso di tempo aumenterà in modo significativo gli abbonati Patreon per lui.

thanks so much

I'm a bit out of touch with what the dev is up to but has the writing\writer changed since SG ch 4 and the WiaB ch 1 rework? I find the dialog clunky and a bit hard to get into now.

Anyone else have problems with the video/animation parts? Like when mc gets into a fight with that one dude in class it cuts off mid punch for me, the video that plays when Bella is sitting on her car while talking to that other girl also just cuts off in the middle, I didn't have this problem in previous updates

I bet it has content right now, it may be only Chapter 1, but it's 1,2GB in size. While that doesn't really mean anything, but in example BaDIK, both the initial release and first update were huge in content :p
I didn't encounter 1 sex scene through the entire 1-4 chapters, great fuckin game though, top tier for sure, no content though or atleast no content i found

There's nothing wrong with the writing, it's more Oceanlabs not being a native English speaker. Many things that would seem natural to natives, he tends to forget or perhaps doesn't know. It takes forever to become fluent in a language. He probably didn't take the time to really think about how each line would sound if spoken. He probably thought in his native tongue and translated it to English when he wrote. It could have been a lot of things, but one thing's a fact, this is only the beta. I believe that he'll go over the dialogue(along with many other things) before the final release.

If you're talking about the overall dialogue, yeah he's not a native English speaker. It'll take some time before he can articulate his thoughts into the dialogue as clearly as he can when speaking to us here, in discord, or in the dev logs on Patreon. To put it clearly, he still needs some practice. He's getting better, but it'll take a while before his dialogue is visibly cohesive. It took me ages to get my English to this level, and I practice every day(and it's still terrible lol).

A realistic solution to this would be for him to hire a proofreader/editor. But they do not come cheap. This is an investment he'll have to make further on down the line, but hopefully, he gets help before that. There are many articulate users here, and I'm sure many of them would love to perform an amateur proofread for him. In any event, this problem has to be addressed. One thing to note is that Oceans has thought about this problem, and is actively working on it.
The best solution for this problem is to use a grammar program that will fix every issue in the sentence. I'm writing my own fiction too and I always use this when I finish the script. I can make terrible mistakes in the sentences too.

What I'm hoping for, is that by then, Oceanlab would have grown significantly in support.
Thats my hope to, i supporting him on Subscribe Star, But i am really worried because of this. It looks like he has - - lost over 140 patrons since the last update.

He probably thought in his native tongue and translated it to English when he wrote.
That could be. I - as a fellow german - has absolutly no problems in understand the dialogs in the game despite the translate afterwards. I asume the reason is that i am familiar with the german sentence structure und know the meaning how is was written as it is, i am sure that a native speaker slaps his forhead about this. But until Ocan has one, or more, capable proofreader(s) we have to deal with it.

Those are just normal drops that every dev goes through. By the end of the month, he will get them back.
And with the release of full chp4, he most likely will cross 1k patrons.

When the final version comes, it may go even further beyond that(1k). I noticed that most of the patrons left the last few days before the update. One day before, if graphtreon was accurate. Seeing that there's no tabletop session for the next few updates(in other words, no major roadblocks when it comes to development), the development period should decrease significantly. Meaning we may get chapter 4.5 sometime this year. I honestly see Oceanlab's Patreon increasing substantially throughout the next few updates. When it's time for him to develop the next tabletop session, he may be better equipped to handle that workload and still release that update promptly. It's only up from here.

Edit: I've just recalled someone mentioning that Oceanlab stated that he's aiming for another release this year(which further supports my statement).
