So. If you're seeing this poll, you must've played the v0.7.16 update and should've seen the new Rowen dream scene.

If you haven't, ➡️please go and see it before voting. If you couldn't be bothered with the The Heist, please go ➡️grab the gallery unlock code and at least watch the scene from the gallery before voting.
Now that we're on the same page, I want to hear your folks' thoughts about that scene. From our point of view, it was a super fun one to make, but at the same time it took us ages to finish. About three full weeks of man-hours from the animators in total, then at least two full days of rewrites from the writers to fit the timings, then there was communication with the external VA and a sound designer, and then about a day of splitting the whole thing into parts, rendering, testing, etc.
Still, If you liked it as much as we did, we could just switch to making such "cinematic" animations for most of the future sex scenes. We should realistically be able to add one such animation per update after we get used to this new workflow. And we could even try adding a tad more interactivity to them, something like looping some parts of the animation, letting you return to a previous stage, etc. It's still going to be less varied than some of our larger looped sex scenes, so keep that in mind.
If you liked Rowen's scene even more than we did, we could possibly start converting older sex scenes into this format, but obviously this is going to take a super long time, so this is an "out there" option. Another option is to do some cinematic animations in the future, but keep them confined to dreams and special occasions, once every few months. Or maybe we should stick to doing them only when we come up with a cool script and want to shake things up a bit, once or twice a year.
And if we're keeping the looped animations, then tell us, would you like to see animated penetrations and especially endings in them? Gotta warn you right away, we won't be able to do really good-looking animations for the cum outside option, our engine simply isn't good enough for this. While we can and will do something to mask the uglier parts, we'll probably have to keep some of the endings as still images.
Then there's a question of sound and voices. It's a very big can of worms on its own, so we'll do another poll on that a bit later.
For now, please cast your vote. This is going to be another multi-choice poll, so mark all the options you like. And please, leave comments. I like comments. MORE COMMENTS. Polls are good and stuff, but they lack nuance. At the very least, tell us if you liked the scene with Rowen or not, regardless of your general stance on the cinematic animations.
See you soon!
