Well, if we're lucky we might get the leak very late at night, otherwise wait until tomorrow. In any case, I honestly don't expect much from this update. 200 renders with the number of lines that BD writes per render... I don't know, maybe 10-15 minutes and we're done.

200 renders and no animation, and it's been almost a month since the last release XD

It's interesting how the benchmark keeps slipping. The rather absurd 52 updates in 52 weeks went away pretty much after one week. That morphed into the 100 renders a week, 400 a month (per now monthly update).

And now here is the delayed update, coming in after the delays close to a month after the last...with 200 renders. It's still a respectable amount compared to many games, and definitely a lot better than 2 years of zero updates. But my concern is the trajectory the releases have been on, both in time and content.

The zero animations is a bit of a red flag. Either this update is all story and no action or Braindrop is struggling to render stuff in a timely manner now that his "buffer" of pre-generated content is used up.

This was my thought process as well. *IF* he was serious about the 52 updates in 52 weeks, he should have had at least two/three months worth of content, done, finished, ready for shipping. He would be actively working/rendering on content that's months ahead of what is being released. That way, he gives himself enough room for error, and still continue to release content regularly. That "buffer" of renders he had, was easily the perfect plan I described. Unfortunately, Braindrop can't seem to get out of his own way.

If I was developing a game, and I've seriously considered it, that would be my plan. I assume that's what NTL Media does as well, which is why they/he(I don't know if it's a team or solo guy) churn out regular updates every two weeks like near clockwork. It's because they're already working on content that is months ahead of what is being released.

Yeh I get that and what I'm saying is that I installed the update (like I always do) and... nadda. That's it for this version after the same scene as last time. So unless this is the much ballyhooed season 1 rework then I didn't get squat. So I reiterate, update only doesn't seem to be working, at least for me.

(Cripes after all the times I had to correct my spelling on this post even I'm beginning to question my competence!)

I don't know what to tell you. This update goes through Rach and MC telling everyone about the preg, and ends on the yacht. I anyways download the full update and delete the old one once I'm sure the new is working correctly. Maybe your old version or the save your using got corrupted. Try using an older save. If not, download the full game.
