Well, that's what those trackers are for and people can get those informations anytime they want. I mean, he can't get more detailed than them without totally spoiling the update. Sure he could do it but I don't see which actual additional information you'd gain.
It's not about gaining any new information. It's about accessibility and the feeling like you're getting information. Most people who aren't patrons don't have access to/ or don't know how to get said information. Keeping your community constantly updated is important even if its mostly bs it's better than leaving them in the dark, especially when the internet is as dumb as it is.
Well, that's certainly a sound argument though I still don't really agree with the whole basic premise. As said, it's nowhere easier to get all those information in detail and if people can't be bothered they have no real reason to complain either. That said, given that his patreon numbers look very good most people seem to be happy anyway.
A fine point in art skills is being able to follow a model sheet.
Yes, they are.
Will be a helluva of ride when the update come out and people play and find out that aren't many new stuff, just new assets. Diane update 2.0 right there. A shame, truly.
The main reason is indeed a new rig system, which reduces the size of the game. Up until some time ago most sprites where saved as a whole while now facial impressions, bodies and arms/assets are saved on different layers and can be combined at will. It seems that the number of mobile players has risen sharply during the last year and DC wants to make sure the game will continue to work well on android. Else it's of course true that we'll get a consistent art/animation standard across all characters. Until now most of the early characters/animations are really quite bad compared to the latest ones. Back then DC had to push updates which came at the cost of quality. I mean, if you compare for example early Jenny updates, her art was rough, we had 2 frame animations and quests which basically purely cosisted of "earny money -> buy toy -> talk to Somrak -> repeat 3x". If you compare that to what we are getting now, it'll simly take more time.
You can search Summertime saga on porn hub, there you Will find complete walktroughs of older versions of the game. Involving the old art for the family members. Or you can play the game as It is, since only diane has significantly been changed so far. Mom and sis have the old art in most of the scenes.
I don't think they should have any obligation to people who aren't patrons, they aren't "customers". That said, you don't have to be a contributor on Patreon to see the tracker anyway.
Maybe I am reading you wrong, but tell me, what entitles you to anything regarding this or any game, birthright, genetic defect, what?
I kept quite a few images which were posted in this topic by various people,
Those new look of the characters are SOOOO much better.
It's not about why """I""" or any non-patron's entitlement to information. It's about making information readily available. There are plenty of patrons and non-patrons who are dogshit stupid and could use any sort of spoonfed update. But I'm also not demanding info. I can read the charts. Others can't. I just suggested an idea.
