Just another developer milking the cash cow. Went from three-four updates in a year all the way to one. Doubt you'll even see this one this year. They aren't much better than his original updates or longer so that tells me exactly whats going on. Dudes using all the money to vacation instead well giving supporters scraps. Much better games out there and developers to support who won't leave you feeling ripped off.

This game was never more than 2 updates a year. The current updates are approximately 3 or 4 times bigger than the first episodes. Other games update 4 times a year but have half the content over those 4 updates that one episode of this game has.

DPC is milking, his decision to move from 30 to 60 FPS on animations was solely to increase development time, it offers nothing more to the story, his constant making new minigames and tinkering with the existent minigames is exasperating. There's plenty of things to be annoyed by without blatantly lying in all three points that you made.

I dunno about that.

Episodes 1, 2 & 3 were released in 2019. Episodes 4, 5 & 6 were released in 2020.

But as you say, the rest of the dude's posts is bs.

The 30 to 60 fps conversion didn't actually result in slower development, because it coincided with his new graphics cards arriving and he commented that it was faster doing 60fps on the new hardware compared to 30fps on the old. The real issue is he just keeps created more, and longer animations. The animations are literally taking months to complete.

Minigames... I guess the new Brawler is ok if it's gonna actually matter to the plot (for when the mc takes down Caleb). But the fucking spelling and maths games... :rolleyes: why did he even imagine they needed a revamp? :rolleyes: And I totally keep forgetting there's a fucking fish feeding game. :rolleyes: Fuck, if I keep rolling my eyes I'm gonna get a headache! :rolleyes:

Okay as you said, it means, Prof. had made "Interlude"before starting working on S3 so fans won't get bored playing some additional saga of Zoey! Hope, you got my point.But,there was no need of "Interlude". I have seen many views from fans, some were not liking it and some were skipping "Interlude"!!you could realised why? It s because fans were eagerly waiting for the game, what they left in S2 and what s next they could play(content) in S3!

So you would rather not have nothing than Interlude, is that what you are saying?

The episodes also became larger and of higher quality. If you don't like high quality content then there are plenty of fast and easy porn games to play.

He wasn't porting the game, only making the season 2 Steam release, a process that lasted around a month at worst.

Don't you remember we had to transfer a save to the new system? We had to make a special save at the end of episode 8 to transfer to season 3, because of the new system. You can't load episode 1-8 saves in episode 9. He cleaned up the code and rewrote some of it. The longer a game like this gets, the easier it is to get bugs. The different choices and paths get tangled.

This is his pride and joy, I can understand why he wants it to look its best and be its best. He's even thinking about remastering season 1 when he's finished because he feels it doesn't look as good. To many, this is just a porn game, but to him, this is life's work. People who are asking the guy to not make it the best he can and to just release it as quickly as possible, don't understand how much this game means to him.


Also, some people actually enjoy the mini-games. I do. And it's something he enjoys creating with his wife, I don't see any problem with it. You can turn it off.

I love that no one in the history of this thread has ever called that old cow a manatee before...

But seriously...

...She's not that cute. :giggle:

Aren't manatees just sea cows?

That said, players on this forum worked themselves into a rabid frenzy of hate for Zoey because:
  1. No one wanted a new LI this late into the story (except they wanted Bianca the second they saw her drooling for the mc at the concert, and they wanted Yoga Girl, also knows as Carol-Lyn from this day forth, from only a handful of renders...)
Click to expand...
Never. Her name could be just Carol, that's alright, but not Carol-Lyn. Maybe even Caroline, but not your stupid spelling of it :cautious:

Sea cow, land cow, air cow. No matter what she's a cow. But I do really like the 'oily manatee' reference.

There is no way Yoga Girl has any name with a hyphen in it. :confused:

Yeah "oily manatee" was great lmao. And the only way Yoga Girl's name ever has a hyphen in it is we take each other's names when we get married :love:
