funny moment

If i remember well and I'm not mistaken, 0.5 came in 2 parts and thats why it had 3600 renders. probably took 10 months each part too so around 1300 renders per half an update.

I have AVNs vibes from 2017-19 with short updates that suddenly ended like that with an unfinished story, only they came out once a month, and this Mia update took 10 months. R&N should be happy to buy a new car because Mia jerked off MC's dick

I had memes prepared now I can't use them. My only salvation is the doctor. I hope he includes a scene with the girl with blue hair.

I just have to ask: out of all people out there working 8h5days/week - how many actually give a shit about what they're doing? Exactly how involved they're in the product of their labors? Especially if we're talking about some artistic product (since writing likeable characters and making nice renders requires some creativeness). Laziness is bad, yeah, but a blind dedication simply for the sake of regularly spewing the certain amounts of content in the end is much worse for the resulting product.

But I would assume you choose to work on a game because it's your passion? The normal daytime job often is just something you gotta do to pay your bills but if you can make money out of something you love (creating games) I'd say it should even boost the motivation and workflow... Even if you "just" work 5h per day on your game. Doesn't matter. But having a look at THIS update here it feels like they took many many days off. No proof here, just my assumption.

Haven't played the update yet and I will probably wait till the next one(next year June)but why is mc getting kicked out of the camp?

 

[memeLordo]

Guys, guys, maybe it's just the bait from the devs to leave the good part at last, and surely they will release even bigger update after only a couple months !

I can't believe I'm saying this, but this was kind of Funny

I wonder if this is actually the MC with the worst haircut in any AVN..

You know, the long wait for the update, coupled with the lack of content and the weird dream scene, it's giving me Dual Family flashbacks :^)

 

[bigdickwaterland]

Hooray for a year of waiting to see a wank and useless chatter in the woods. The game developers are just geniuses))) It's a pity about this game, it just turns into a milking machine. We haven't even made much progress on the plot, it's terrible. A year later, the authors will give a look at the boob, although they had done sex scenes before, what has changed?))) We need more gold))) It's a pity, it's a pity.

I heard about some sort of a Doctor who also likes to conduct therapy once a year and each time less and less often, but at least he does it well.

At this point the MC might as well ditch camp and go hang out with Becca

Tbh, I wouldn't mind this at all . As long as I can bring Sophie and Bree with me.

 

[doovel]

Can someone please explain to me why was Kate so strict? Did she fall in love with the mc and decided to kick him out so as not to complicate things?

Essentially what they're going for is the "I want to, but we shouldn't" trope. Essentially she's sending him away to prevent her from doing something she shouldn't.

In her mind she's being strict with him on a technicality, as she obviously knows it was Miller who took the MC out. She can't really blame him, but it's a convenient excuse.

She's horny and lonely, she wants to jump the MCs bones. But must prevent herself from doing that at all costs.

 

[StingerWolf]

Ms.Hill is very worthwhile there

Oh really??? Might give it try then. She is the sole reason I play this game.

 

[bigdickwaterland]

Just a useless update and waiting, I'm disappointed. Well, we still have hope for Jessica at the end of the month, for Amnesia and Seaside mystery)))

Man it's been like 2 years, I'm losing my memory. I was thinking about another VN.

Na 0.5 for sure had those 3000+ renders that's why most people were happy even though it took so long lol this time we get half the amount for getting the update 1 month earlier.

 

[Tserriednich'sNen]

My biggest critique with this game is the pacing. Idk how large/ambitious the devs plan on making this game but if it's anything even remotely significant, given the current pacing as well as the wait period in between updates I honestly doubt this game survives long enough to see it's completion not including something horribly rushed ofc. Unlike most the thread here I actually enjoyed the update as I don't mind slow burns but tbh I'm not very optimistic about the game's future. I really hope I end up being wrong though.

Ok... the renders like usual are top notch but the massive drop in development speed is a disappointment and a massive red flag imho.
I went back and looked up the release dates of ch4 and ch5 to roughly calculate the drop in dev speed.

Ch4 release: 10. Nov. 2022 with around 1200 renders
Ch5 release: 13. Oct. 2023 with around 3600 renders
Ch6 release: 22. Aug. 2024 with around 1800 renders

Ch4 -> Ch5 took 338 days which makes it a dev speed of 10.65 renders per day
Ch5 -> Ch6 took 315 days which makes it a dev speed of 5.71 renders per day
This is a massive drop in speed and imho should never happen unless something unforseen and serious happened (serious accident/illness, a death of a friend/family member etc).
Especially considering that with better hardware and more experience stuff should go faster or at least not drop in speed at all.

Edit:
Alright I went and calculated the dev speed from the very first release to Ch4 and it took them 262 days to get from the first release to Ch4 and they added around 2500 renders in that time which made it a dev speed of 9.54 renders per day.
Which makes the drop in dev speed even worse because during that time they had worse hardware, less experience and less time because I'm pretty sure that they weren't working full time on the game at that time.

Edit2:
I'm really curious what happend here. Did they lose their motivation? Got stuck for a long time on how the story should progress?
Or did they decide to lower their work hours and go into milking mode?

I'd like for you to stop bitching about how small and disappointing the update for a game you didn't pay a penny was and help me get the missing Bonus Image.
