What does chapter 1 or 2 mean? I've played 0.6 a long time ago. Was that chapter 6?, so the rework is at chapter 2 of 6?, or is that not how these numbers work? That would be slightly depressing IMO.

0.6 was indeed up to chapter 6 and the rework is now at chapter 2.

It's been entirely reworked since then. Chapter 2 is basically still near the beginning of the old version. Despite the high render count, it's still very much in the early phases of the game. The MC has still only just arrived at his parent's house in the rework. TBH this entire chapter didn't really push the plot forward at all, it's still in the character introduction phase.

Sooo, we are basically still "Where It All Began" ? :LOL:
Not playing until it catches up to chapter 6 or 5 or wichever chapter already had the new story content.

Never understood why a dev works on 2 games at once and then doubles update time for each. Pick one and stick to it until it's done before starting another one, unless you are a god that is already cranking out big updates every month on one. 2 updates a year (or less) for a particular AVN sucks, for multiple reasons, but the main one to me being if it takes 10 years to finish it's probably never going to see the finish line with all the reworks mid-story (Daz improves quite a bit over the span of 2-3 years).

If Ocean downgraded the quality down to the average VN, we could get updates every month.
But I dont think anyone wants that, considering its what makes his VNs unique.

That's my point, instead of downgrade quality just work on 1 AVN at a time, not 2 or more. I guess it could be worse. Burst Out Games (3 people) decided it was a good idea to work on 5 AVN's at once. I subbed for Powers That Be, not the other 4. When updates for that went from 6 weeks to 6 months I unsubbed, as I had 0 interest in the other crap they were cranking out.

He's collecting donations separately for both VNs despite clearly focusing on one at a time. Patreon allows it but still a scummy move imo. If one project has your focus at a time, you shouldn't be accepting donations for two separate projects. You're basically accepting donations for something you aren't working on at all. You shouldn't have two separate patreons open for different games unless you already have the equipment/manpower to work on both at the same time.
