Weird.
As I told them, cancel the sub until the update is out.

The last thing I want is for someone to build a grudge against the game they like and support because it takes too long.

If you find yourself in the position where you start getting mad, cancel your subscription and think about resubscribing after Chapter 1 is out.

Well, that is, as I thought after the last log, it will never come out. I wonder if it ever occurred to him that he shouldn’t read all this junk from the mail, but just write one post for the subscribers? Probably not.
And that's not how it works. It is enough to at least roughly indicate the time frame. He could have guessed it within a year.

And yet, he could not pump money from subscribers for years, make a donation goal and collect a million, as other solo indie developers do. But that’s another story, and here we have another fable with a paragraph after each sentence.

Come on, don't you know that Wollust is the world capital of hair removal?

Bella had a nice bush before the rework.

It should be illegal for women to have pubic hair.

You are wrong. She had a forest down there.

 

[yossa999]

You are wrong. She had a forest down there.

And we even haven't seen Nami's! Only heard about it in the shower! I wonder which one of them is the hairiest?

5K for SG + 4K for WiAB.
~3K for SG still yet to render.

 

[Ray_D]

Let me guess the crew splits up for two years so they can get stronger and continue on their journey?

Oh yes, how could I forget the training arc.

 

[Ray_D]

I'm just thinking... Ocean spends so much time increasing the realism of his renders, all these tutorials on blender, zbrush,
clothing simulation and so on but his main character has "plastic" arms with no hair

Don't forget nika's ridiculous haircut.

Nah, he'd benefit more from the inverse. The fact that he takes the piss so much with these updates is resulting in significantly less support for what i'd argue is one of the top 5 most freely advertised VNs in the genre. SG is mentioned constantly within the community, even when its irrelevant to the topic at hand

...and yet you open his Patreon and he's treading water at ~1.2k. There are AVNs with significantly less free advertisement performing drastically better. A lot of people are looking at what SG offers, considering the absurd update timelines, failing to find the A in AVN, and taking both their support and football home.

Opportunity cost. It's not being considered.

This might be a dumb question that has already been answered, but why work on two games and complain about the amount of work you have been doing? Kinda just seems like the situation was brought upon Ocean's own doing....

Oh that question has been asked for years........Don't waste your time
as you will get many answers both negative and positive but in the end
it wouldn't matter. It wouldn't change the amount of time we all need to
wait.

I would like to understand your question better, but, do you consider that what he wrote in the log is complaining?

 

[Calz]

Yawn every two weeks is another road block instead of 8000 renders its now 9000 renders.. legit going to have GTA 6 before the next update at this point.

 

[The Bush Diver]

AND I LOVE IT!

I wouldn't say illegal. I am however, not a fan of pubic hair. Never have been.

I'm new to the AVN world, is there any dev besides Ocean who invents a thousand things and doesn't release the game? Because it's not possible, there's less than a month left until we reach the middle of the year and the guy doesn't even have a release date.

I would prefer an update with 3.5k renders than this one with 4k, 5k, 6k... Although with 800 or 7k renders Ocean would take the same amount of time, apparently WIAB is in July and SG in January 2026.

Não, meu irmão. It's something normal in AVN games.
I can't think of any dev that release updates quicky. Maybe DPC?

The problem with Ocean is that he is working in 2 games at the same time. If he just dropped WIAB and focused in SG we would already be playing or, at least, have an release date.
