(I do know that Japanese gamers tend to have a high opinion of Kyrieru's work. Whether that translates financially is a different matter, of course.)<br /><br />On the side of ignoring H-CGs to an extent, Meikyu no Marionette focused on sprite sex over CGs, with only 5 or 6 of them, and was a reasonable financial success. RePure Aria basically ignored the CGs (honestly, they looked more like they were done in MS paint, and there weren't many) and did very well, although it did have a lot of characterization and text to go with it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150748600895135243.post-16130827433850775492014-01-07T19:18:44.482-04:002014-01-07T19:18:44.482-04:00lol sounds like CG's are a low priority from y...lol sounds like CG's are a low priority from your point of view as well. Do you dislike doing CG's? Or is it strictly a time thing? <br /><br />Either way hiring a CG artist seems like a good idea. You wouldn't have to wait till the end of a game cycle to get your CG's since a different artist could be working on them RIGHT NOW while you work on something else. Also you'd get more experience delegating work to freelancers which is always good.golwasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150748600895135243.post-3006040272295994762014-01-07T18:45:24.578-04:002014-01-07T18:45:24.578-04:00With Eroico I was doing 2 CGs per day, so they nee...With Eroico I was doing 2 CGs per day, so they needed to be quick and simple.

I mean, HCGs are overabundant in every H title, but decent sprite animations? Not so much - and I know for a fact that there are plenty of people that'd trade majority of HCGs in some of the platform/action games for more and better, varied animations (at least as per conclusion of my earlier discussion).<br /><br />Thus, I can only agree with some of the earlier comments. I can agree that there's no need to remove HCG completely but Kyrieru also shouldn't really worry much about them and if he could make some more H sprites and animations instead, I'd be that much more glad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150748600895135243.post-392222014003050672014-01-07T12:27:10.218-04:002014-01-07T12:27:10.218-04:00It's not that I think I'm bad, it's ju...It's not that I think I'm bad, it's just that I know some people would be better, and I tend to rush CGs when I do them myself.<br /><br />I think monster girl quest is bad example, because I actually found some of the worse art very distracting.

Art is very subjective and it really doesn't matter if you feel your good nor not, your fan base are the ones you really need to worry about if your goal is to please them.<br /><br />Every artist has their own style and its not necessarily a bad thing to be a bit different. A prime example would be Torotoro @ monster girl quest. I know that he couples the art with a good story, but no mater how badly I think some of the chimeras look/are drawn. There will be people that will think its the most fapable content around.

Japanese H-gamers tend to overreact to a lack thereof, even for action-oriented games. Various games have won (or came close to winning) the Worst H-Game of the Year award partly for that reason. It was a major criticism leveled at Nousatsu Kunoichi a couple years back, for example, where they removed all H-CGs in favor of sprite sex. While a visual novel, Mahou Shoujo Ai 3 is known as the worst H-game of all time for a similar reason.<br /><br />Mind you, your games have tons more playability and thought put into them than the aforementioned games; still, I can guarantee you that the risk would never be worth it. H-gamers can take a beating in terms of gameplay, but a lack of CGs drives them off the deep end.<br /><br />Speaking of your CGs, Japanese reviewers of your game seem to be happy with them. In fact, you have reviewers praising the game specifically for it's art. Not that I disagree with the reasoning on "great" over "good," but there certainly isn't anything wrong with drawing them on your own.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
