On the verge of a large update for a good game I feel like a little kid waiting for Christmas.

Wow, he was/is learning to use Octane, Zbrush and Blender around the same time. That is a serious jump in skill gathering. Next I am expecting to hear about learning a new engine like godot/unity/unreal/cryengine/source 2/etc.
I applaud your work ethic and hope you won't burn yourself out. Maybe the 3080 RTX TI will be out to upgrade to. So maybe quad slot them.
Anyways I wish you well oceanlab.

This guy should ask some IT what PC he should build. 2080Ti will be old fashion in summer as there are new GPU chips to be released 3xxx which should increase its power around 20%-30%. 3000€ PC LOL with 2080Ti. He either had to buy the 10th gen Intel i9 or he really is milking his patrons and telling BSs

Damn! I thought maybe it was going to be out this weekend. My opinion against animations at this stage is getting stronger. Hopefully they will be worth any delay.

It's pretty clear to everyone that Ocean lab is putting in a lot of work for this update and I dont think anyone minds waiting.

Instead of TITAN RTX dev may want to save for the Quadro RTX 8000, those are workstation GPUs with more VRAM and more cores than even the TITAN series. It's also another thousand dollars, but you'd have a GPU specially made for these sorts of things. Ultimately you'll save more time rendering. Though the TITAN RTX can definitely be utilized as a workstation GPU, and is also better suitable for gaming.
Weirdly enough a bunch of test done show that Quadros render slower than Titans. They are truly not worth the money.
Honestly, at this point he could just go all the way and hold off releasing 6 until he’s redone the previous chapters and then have one big seamless cinematic-looking release.

If the cinematics bother you so much, I got a solution, just don't play the game!
It seems like you will be much happier that way.
I was making a genuine suggestion. Part of what’s giving Ocean all these hangups is trying to deliver visuals that matches what’s in his head, and clearly a big part of that is having to redo characters with a newer look to match the new style in a way that his rig will allow, whilst also trying to get out new updates by a certain window. Couple that with Summer’s Gone which is due for another update, that’s a lot of work to get through.
I think the game’s more likely to actually get completed and gain more support if he temporarily holds off on the typical update cycle and effectively redoes the whole thing at once instead of trying to retrofit it on the fly like he’s doing now.
But I guess constructive criticism isn’t allowed?

I see what you mean now.
Honestly that would take quite a while, and while that sounds great to have the whole reworked game, I know Ocean is actually desperate to deliver an update by now.
Also we must remember this is not his only project, he also needs to look at Summer's gone audience.

Nope, after chapter 6 is done Ocean will work on SG chapter 3. Then he will work on WiAB 0.1 to 0.4 rework and that rework will be released in 2 halves.

This won’t be popular, but I think he should outright put WIAB on hold or at least slow development down a lot while most of his time goes towards Summer’s Gone. It seems like Summer’s Gone is a smoother experience for him and WIAB is the one that causes all the headaches.
Short term it’ll probably cost him support, but I think if he builds up Summer’s Gone, which seems to have a stronger foundation, while working on WIAB more as a side thing, it’ll give him a long term boost of new support when he finally does release a completely reworked 1-6 version of WIAB, even if that’s realistically not something that happens until the end of the year or into the next.

While I do agree that SG definetly seems to be able to bring in more support and more focus on it will definely make Ocean grow more. I believe that asking Ocean to put his first baby on hold will be a straight no from him. I have seen beforehand the improvement and the quality that Ocean is striving for, and let me tell you, its outstanding.
I believe that deciding to put WiAB on hold would be decision that haunts Ocean even if its for just little while.

In my opinion things should go as Dev has planned or the way he's comfortable in..I am ngl I adore SG more than WiAB, yet I am willing to go by the decisions of Dev as it should be.
