Cinematic place holders are done! Pretty much, it's complete as much as it needs to be right now.
Like I said while playing through the story now you'll see a lot of 'scene descriptions' these are place holders where cinematics should be. Over time and based on priority these place holders will be replaced with proper scenes.
There're actually some new scenes already made from before I considered the faster method. So late you may see a few.
Right now, priority is builds, getting the game in a functional playable state again. This does mean some configuring of progression elements but that's largely been worked out it's not too big of a deal.
Process will go like this:
Then after that process:
The bulk of the story work finally being done, and the place holders in place mean that all that's left is some animation/pose work. But otherwise, the game is functional as it needs to be. We can test things and isolate problems to cinematics later.
As such, I can focus on content without worry once the game is restored to base functionality. Some note that last build once you reached Act 4 (mistakenly labeled Act 3) the game would soft lock. Stuff like this will be fixed so the game is playable to the full loop with all events in place.
Sex sim hasn't been touched in a very long time, so some things might need review. There's still some things like the new stats are not currently modifying sex sim values yet. So, things like that need to be worked on.
As you guys have been aware there's been multiple stints of making content that you haven't actually seen in-game yet and I need to remedy that. I couldn't before cause I felt the game needed to be functional in its full form.
I think the next ideal scenario is finishing Act 0-3 so I don't need to worry about it anymore. But it's not a huge deal to put off the cinematics for that a little longer as long as they're functionally in place. It's not a massive looming issue for me anymore.
Also, I do want to note (possibly again) Act 4 has been technically split into two. The reason is to properly introduce dress up. For now, though until Act 4 is complete dress up will be unlocked early. But in the final game you'll have to accept random outfits.
All that said once the build is functional, we'll have a good loooong while of focusing on lewd content and outfits and things like that. I'll likely focus on the simpler stuff first, but contrary to that list effectively being in order conclusion scenes may come earlier. I'm kind of excited about my plans for those.
Thanks again for your support and patience!
Enjoy the image above which is a render I made yesterday cause I've sorely missed just making scenes and doing renders and such. Don't read too much into it, while the outfit is new the rest of the scene is composed just for this.
But it does hint at some long term goals I have :P
