This Thread never disappoints. I'm tempted to try to hunker down and see if I can get out my second release before BD actually releases episode 13

Take a week vacation, work away slowly at the next one, push it 2 weeks late.... Then rinse and repeat for the 3rd installment, and you'll probably still have him beat
The only Thing about BD I want to emulate is his success. Everything else is for the birds.Take a week vacation, work away slowly at the next one, push it 2 weeks late.... Then rinse and repeat for the 3rd installment, and you'll probably still have him beat

Easy... stop updates and let aliens abduct your goldfish. Then make excuses why the dog ate your renders...The only Thing about BD I want to emulate is his success. Everything else is for the birds.

If you want to be as successful as him then I have to ask you one question? You like sports?The only Thing about BD I want to emulate is his success. Everything else is for the birds.
Every single one... I especially love watching the underwater hockey super cup and the Camel wrestling world championship

Guys, leaving the lying WVM developer aside, I'd like to know your opinion on this matter, regarding game updates here, how often and how big do you think they should be?
Personally, I think a good size and time would be an update of 500 to 600 renders once a month?
Do you agree? I'm listening... well, I'm reading your opinions.

500-600 renders a month? That seems a little much for any game tbh. Have to take in to account all the writing you'd need to do each month for a cohesive story anyways and the coding as well. But who knows, maybe im way off basis and that's actually feasible for full time devs.

I'd say 500 - 600 renders every 3 - 4 month is optimal.
Depends on a lot of things. Moonbox gets out 550-720 renders every two weeks for GH but that game doesn't have animations. He did an experimental game with animations and he found that one typically sized GH update would take him 6 weeks to make if he added animations.
For a dev that's making as much as BD, who has a high end PC dedicated to just rendering like BD 500-600 is a reasonable amount of renders to aim for in a month to a month and a half if he's working on it full time. Which given how much he's making he really owes it to his supporters to be doing that.
I'm never a big fan of putting a number on things. The amount of renders matters less than if the content actually moves the story foreword. I'd rather have 300 concise well paced renders than 500-600 renders where nothing happens and the story barley moves.

Moonbox can do that because his renders are fairly simple and that leads to being able to make a lot of them quickly.
You can mass produce a lot of basic, stock renders fairly straightforwardly (Grandma's House). Making more advanced, cinematic renders (think City of Broken Dreamers etc.) takes a lot longer.
So the real answer to this question is (beyond other things like writing quality/animations): How good are the renders?
The quality of anything on WVM is low enough that this shouldn't be an issue.
He could drop the render quality in half, but fix his model's fucked up faces and the overall quality would still increase by double.

Prime example of this is Summer Heat's last update a good number of renders that amounted to pretty much nothing happening.

I believe that you will be able to do it , especially if your update is not a very big one....
