I mean, DC said himself several times that he'd love to have the game in 16:9, especially given the ever increasing number of andriod players. But it's just as said, by the time he realized that the game would be successful and that he'd continue working on it, there was so much art out there, that it would have lasted too long to correct everything.
Yeah, Rhonda is my favourite girl in SS and I'm glad that DC brought her to different routes (her appearance in last update was great).She is now by far the most developed character that doesn't have a update, so while I wait for 0.21 I hope that we get some content with her in 0.20. Sadly I don't have great opinion about 0.19.
Funny thing is, it just dawned on me that the wallpapers linked in the OP are 16:9. The scenes with Jenny's photoshoot in her room, Eve stripping off, and Roz in the elevator are all 16:9 so I'm now starting to wonder if this is sign of intent and perhaps DC is gradually changing these scenes as a side project when they've done the artwork for the next update. You always see that the artwork in the progress tracker is done way before the bulk of the work is done (posing and coding), and since the artwork this is DC's main job, they could be making 16:9 version of the backgrounds and certain scenes when the other members of the team are working on their parts.
I'm not really sure, all the other brackgrounds etc. DC currently creates for 0.20 are still 4:3. I guess the main problem is, that for normal backgrounds there's no compromise. For those you mentioned it's fine to simply cut some areas while that kind of compromise isn't possible for most other art pieces.
Some advice for you that got me through:
Well, they found time to make some backgrounds 16:9 (also there's a wallpaper of the pier in 16:9), so they're finding the time somewhere to do it. Not beyond the realms of possibility to assume they're doing it in small increments, they're just not showing people they're doing it.
DC was talking about this whole 16:9 situation on one of the last stream before 0.19 release. He said that he will be more than eager to do so because the SS could gain visually, but the problem is that redrawing could last at least 3 months and most patrons expect from DC concetration on another story updates
I imagine that the 3 month estimate is if DC focused solely on making everything 16:9, but if they do little bits incrementally (as we see they've done with those wallpapers) then they could probably get there, or close to there, by the 0.22 update which will be probably be done in early 2021. They would, however, have to start drawing the newest stuff in 16:9 and then crop it to 4:3 in order to lessen some of that load, but how possible that is is another question.
It would have been nice though I wasn't too bummed out about it.The one thing I dislike with the game is the "dream sequence" art work that looks completely different from the normal art work.
I getcha. Feels kinda wrong after romancing Eve. It's not like Roxxy who lets her friends fuck you because she finds it hot.
I think it really depends on how open everybody is in a situation like that. Grace feels guilty because she assumes she's betraying her sister, but if Eve is OK with it because, at the end of the day, she knows the MC loves her the most, then Grace would probably feel differently about it. But if Eve isn't OK with it then, yeah, it is kind of a betrayal, but we don't know how she would feel about it. My guess is she'd be OK with it because she'd probably view it as the MC helping her sister occasionally satisfy a horny itch.
