Hey!
I've been hesitating on this matter ever since I came back from my break, and before I make any decisions one way or the other, I'd like to hear everyone's opinion.
My main question is: Do you prefer content that is similar to Diminishment (my animated visual novel game), or video content (5 minute+ long videos, similar to Devil's cookie, Butt Snack, etc.)
From a personal viewpoint, I see going back to Diminishment as a slight downgrade footage wise, due to lipsync, animating acting to match voice acting, etc. not being really feasible due to the nature of the project. While at the same time it's more work, due to everything needing to loop and seamlessly transition from clip to clip. So footage wise I feel like I'm creating "lesser" content, while it requires more work. And of course, time spent troubleshooting user issues, and building the game portion, and much more writing.
On the other hand I do personally find games like this more immersive than just videos. The whole, I feel, makes it at least equal, if not better overall enjoyment wise. But since most of the work is on creating the footage, it's a tad annoying from my own perspective as an artist.What is your opinion on the matter? Do you feel I should continue Diminishment as is, or switch to purely making video content? Of course, this doesn't mean there wouldn't be videos featuring what I have planned for Diminishment, the scenarios would just be told in a different format.
Regardless of poll results, the scenario will remain roughly the same, and will feature Lucy and Jane. The poll will run until the end of the month.
The poll will be open for all paying patrons/subscribers, regardless of tier, since I want as wide of a scope on opinions as possible.
On another note: Playblast will likely come out before Wednesday, but I'm slightly behind schedule, so just a heads up, that it's probably not coming out on Sunday.
Let me know what you think!
That's all for now!
