Yes that reporter is quickly becoming my favorite model. I hope she returns, but if not I want to figure out which model that was and use it for a VN I am planning to make once I can afford a computer to handle the renders.
Well, you let me know when that VN happens because I want to be a patron to someone who loves redheads as much as you do. If there is a broken goth redhead I will die a happy man.

And umm, how long should we wait before searching for a new @LocoGringo78 considering it looks like he may have really upset SB and BB.
I might be in the clear now, still suffering from a loss of blood. Hopefully my body regenerates it before 5:00 PM EST tomorrow. ;)

I am going to attempt to turn a book I was writing into a lewd VN. The primary female is a redhead and will become the MC's main love interest at some point. I still have a long way to go to learn daz3d and build a computer to handle it. I would probably just do it for fun too, and not set up a Patreon for it.

BD really inspired me to pick up my writing again, and with all the reactions I have received here on the theory crafting I have done I thought it might be worth looking into.

As soon as AMD brings the new CPUs onto the market and NVidia can also deliver the 3080/3090, it should be possible to build a computer with, for example, an used Ryzen 7 3700X and a RTX 2080TI for "little" money. RAM is also very cheap right now.

Yeah, I'd love to learn Daz3D but have zero time since I am full time Stay at home dadding right now. My PC isn't up to snuff either only having a 970 right now. I have a story, I was working on it with someone else who disappeared, but I am a potato when it comes to programming.

At this point I figure I will just enjoy the work of other people and urge them to add as many mind-blowing redhead as possible. BD is doing a great job of it.

That is exactly what my plan was both of those are on my wish list. I haven't had a gaming PC in over 13 years now. I had to give up gaming when I had my oldest child. Now that my kids are independent I can try to build a PC again. I know it is not cheap and will take a while to save up for all the parts.

*phwew* I wasn't looking forward to submitted a "replacement" candidate list.

Sound intriguing. Much like MrFriendly I also have an interest in redheads.

My last "high-tech" gaming PC had an AMD Athlon XP Thoroughbred and a Radeon 9800 Pro, haha. It's good that the vast majority of visual novels run on a potato.

But to stay on topic, I'll take the entire rainbow, the more the better.

Well, that shouldn't stop you from at least getting Daz Studio, and just mess around with it for now. I still have to actually start on some small VN I want to make, and didn't look into Ren'py at all yet. But, I have a blast rendering my own backgrounds for my mobile phone, and it's definitely educational to just figure out now what all those sliders and stuff do. I started doing that on my previous computer already, on which I could only do slow CPU renders. I'd just spend an evening once in a while to set up a nice scene, let it render over night, and hope something decent came out by the time I woke up in the morning. Just, don't go crazy buying models and stuff, it can turn into an expensive hobby very quickly.

And, there's a downside to having a ton of models, that very few people mention: it actually slows down Daz Studio, even if you don't have a model loaded. Just having it installed will add to the time it takes to load another model. At first it's barely noticable, but even a new computer can get pretty slow from having some fifty+ models installed..

Why you should never install anything imo (unless forced by their downloader or it's required content to run). Use the inbuilt system within Daz to link to external folders/drives.

I just finished the game. I would like to ask a question. MC's mom hit Ryker with a car, but why didn't the cops arrest him?
We don't know for sure who else got arrested to be honest yet. I think we might find out more tomorrow after the update drops as to what else happened. There was a lot of confusion as to what did or did not happen at the end. I wrote up a whole thing about the stand your ground law and how that could justify Wendy's actions, but we will have to see how BD plays this one out.

I can't wait for new update. By the way I like your signature.

I probably mentioned some of this before, but i'll say it again. Some of the few things i personally love about WVM (beside the variety of pretty women), that keeps me wanting more.
  1. Male protagonist portrayed as a competent & a level-headed person with an interesting backstory and promising future from the start (not a clean stale plain MC whose suddenly thrown into something new). Popular based on his own merits (star athlete & genuinely a decent person from the start & isn't a jerk-ass or idiot). Being a star basketball player, MC thankfully doesn't look like a scrawny 10-year-old boy shorter than all the women. Personally, to add more variety to MC i would've given him brown-skin as that's a rarity itself in 3D Adult Games, but that's just me :whistle:.
  2. MC with a True Harem, MC is in an actual polyamorous relationship with multiple women loving him and it's also in the early part of the story too (y). Which is great as there aren't too many games (stories in general too) that are upfront and unashamed about the MC having an actual Harem relationship in the story, especially in the first half of the story and not the tail-end. It isn't the fake harem where the MC is secretly banging multiple women throughout the whole game without them knowing and only gets caught at the ending and must pick one girl and/or last minute when the developer suddenly wants exaggerated drama added and punish the players.
  3. The Story-Driven & Linear Plot. The players are given the choice to see every option in a single play-through (Overlooking the female/trans & cheat/non-cheat variations). To me, makes the story feel longer like a movie/TV series. The characters aren't locked out of the story or relationship. There's no convoluted branching plot-line that requires multiple saves & replays. There's no sandbox/open world element that adds nothing to the visual novel except repetitive gameplay & grinding with zero progression to the story & character development, completely directionless, my take on sandbox/open world.
  4. For the overall story's lighthearted and wholesome theme and up until now, being it's own self-contained world, not completely tied down to reality/logic (well maybe patreon's logic :LOL:). The story not being too serious or over-dramatic, maybe get jumped in an alley, but no house fires (if you understand this reference, yes i'll never live down), no girls getting their heads sniped off (another reference). A great refreshment to the school setting (a setting that tired me out in the past), which for the most part been a backdrop, mainly focusing on the characters' interactions. Also, WVM takes place in a fictional part of Chicago and i like Chicago.
  5. WVM having a cool game developer i consider a friend :D.
So again, give me a competent & level-headed MC with a True Harem, then you have captured my attention and curiosity.

Meh, those are great reasons and all but i think the biggest appeal is look at every single girl i see in the game and think "one day i shall play hide the sausage within thee!" and in all honesty not be too far off the mark lol. The MC is Russel Brand before rehab, he lives a rock and rollercoaster of a life fucking everything in site in his downtime - its utterly ridiculous in all the best ways because if your playing games like these your probably seeking escapism from the real world you want a fanny magnet, alpha sports super star, harem owning, porn movie making, baby spunk firing, princess fucking, down to earth guy who now and then has to put the pricks who get in your way in their place.

Honestly the only villain thats has an even chance of taking on our main character who may or may not be based on the true real life escapades of Brain Drop himself (no wonder he needed time off, nobody has that kind of stamina to please that many women in a single week) and his sexual magnetism is Patreon. If the final big bads of the story (and the other two big players besides Bella of the "big three") are called Pat and Ron then i know well and truly they are the final end game hurdles our hero must overcome. Fuck you Pat Ron

It is Thanksgiving weekend for us up in Canada, so please, please remeber to use the spoiler tag when discussing anything about this weekend's update. Might not be till Tuesday when some of us can get and play.
Don't worry I will put out a lot of reminders again closer to the release time.
