I follow like 2-3 games and download them every single time when there is something new, but I noticed there are ~15min of gameplay in most of them, in each new version.
So do you download each new path, or just skip 3-4 until there is enough content for 40-60 min of gameplay??
Depends on what you're getting out of the particular VN/Game and what you want out of it... It varies, but for me I usually wait long periods of time between revisits... But in my case, I try many different VN/Games over a given period of time, so it doesn't make sense for me to revisit any given VN/Game, every time it updates... You also have to look at how this particular market functions, since it is primarily amateur developer driven... On average it takes around 1 to 3 months for a new update release, even though a few do it faster and some take much longer... Add in the amount of content you get during each update, which varies from developer to developer, over the lengthy development time... Also, for some it may be all they work on, but for others it's just a hobby they work on, between all the other real life things they have to juggle at the same time... Also, sometimes an update is just bug fixes, with little to no real additional content added, while other times you may get a bunch of new content, that is perhaps riddled with bugs and text issues because it wasn't tested or edited properly (in essence it was rushed out for public consumption too early)... The variations of influence on development and outcome from development are vast and many...
So in the end, I usually don't revisit most VN/Games I've tried, until anywhere from 6 months to a year have passed... There are a few occasions were I may just wait for a handful of updates, and other times I may wait well over a year... It just depends on what time I make available for revisits, and how interested I am in a revisit... A few times I've been asked to do a revisit by the developers themselves, in a private message, and when I get the time I typically do that...
I can perfectly understand the desire to follow specific VN/Games that you really enjoy, very closely, over it's development cycle... But because of variants in amount of content, time to create updates, and quality levels of some updates, I can't see myself checking every update as it comes out... For me it would be like a VERY SLOW tease... As most, if not all, VN/Games in this market have a tendency to take years to complete, if they even reach a full completion at all... Would you want to read just one chapter of a really good book every 1 to 3 months, and perhaps take over a year+ to finally complete reading that one book? Not me...
