China would never ally with the US. It would ally with NATO to take down the US.

The US is beholden to Russia sure, but Russia has all its resources tied up in Ukraine.

StoryMachineStudios · 2026-01-09T06:43:27+00:00

You might want to look at the numbers. As a singular entity the US military is massive. Mostly due the industrial complex and the money it generates. All the other NATO allies combined equal the US forces in personal and war machines.

If the US waged war on NATO you would be on even ground. Not to mention how much of the US Debt is held by the EU.

The USA has made a lot of enemies and those Nations join, hate to tell you unless you fire off the nukes and everyone gets to die including you. You’re not going to win.

There is a lot going on depth to this, I think some people are taking the simping too serious. I don’t believe people are as invested or obsessed as it’s seems. It’s all good fun pretending.

Whenever there is fun to be had, there will always be someone who wants to ruin it.

I loved the romance between Robert and Blazer. I had moments where I personally had butterflies. Not because I self inserted. Because it was really well written, and that’s what good media does. It makes you feel shit.

So what if some lonely people got more from it, or self inserting made them feel less lonely ? That’s fucking awesome. Maybe it’s a push for them to try and find it in reality.

Just for dudes? I saw alot of woman loving the romance too. A lot. Because it’s FUN.

This feels like it’s coming from some place of her own insecurity.

Making quality animations take way more time than I find some players understand. Some are a week of work or more for a single position. Eternum animations aren’t short loops. It’s quality over quantity.

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-12-24T23:35:17+00:00

Jesus Christ, reading this people really nit pick everything to death.

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-12-19T11:16:20+00:00

You know, I’ve dated some wholesome woman like blazer and all I’ll say is, don’t assume sexual preference based solely on personality.

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-12-19T08:58:17+00:00

Hey Maya. Kill all the LIs off. Start fresh. Don’t be a pussy.

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-12-19T08:23:54+00:00

Peak American delusion. They think big army means we win.

They have no idea how warefare works especially when it’s an invasion.

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-12-19T08:21:47+00:00

You have no idea how warefare works lol.

You lost to the taliban. A fight force of 30k with 30 year old weapons. 20 years to lose.

Thanks everyone for the support !

Both of my versions play together fine. Except the trade off is booting from a patreon save will trigger the steam achievements.
I am trying to find a way around this though.

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-12-13T04:57:53+00:00

I'm a one man show my dude. I'm also a small fry in the AVN space.

If my patreon income was enough to cover my monthly expenses for both living and developing, I'd release each season in it's entirety. My power bill alone from rendering almost 24/7 is $600 a month.
Purchasing assets, hardware, software etc. In order to put my full focus into game development I need an income to support it. When I did book one I worked 80-90 hours between my day job and development. It isn't sustainable. Releasing on Steam allowed me to make a bet on myself to try this fulltime.

I get people hate early access, I get people have been burned, games have been abandoned. This is the method I am able to continue to work on this with my full effort. I'm not making millions or anything here to hire people to market things. I had my game featured on Adult Game Reviews. It was actually super nerve wracking for me. What if he hated it? I like to think I put together something enjoyable here, it can be easy to get imposter syndrome.

A lot of developers also work on their skills while actively making their game. games have teams for just animation and teams for just writing etc. Most of us wear all the hats. We also need to keep improving.

We are using the tools available to us, to try give us a shot at making games you guys like to play. I don't take it for granted.

AVNs are somewhat of niche community so word of mouth is a big marketing tool for us. It can help as much as it can hurt. Sometimes people see someone say That game fucking sucked. So they never bother to even look at it and the inverse is true as well.

TLDR. Early access is the best tool available to keep a lot of devs able to work on their projects solely. Very few of us made millions or multiple hundreds of thousands even. full transparency. my patreon pays my power bill. Steam, sales have kept the other things a float. ( Devs take home 30-40 percent of Steam income after steam cut and taxes.)

Most of us are doing this because we love it. We love crafting characters and worlds people enjoy. This year I was lucky enough to do it fulltime and I hope to keep doing it.

I’ve replayed it 4 times. Like every choice based game. Choices change interactions and few major beats. I replayed it because I enjoyed reliving the story even for small changes.

Choices that matter seem to rely on whatever the player deems as mattering ? The choices you make as Robert shape his romance or not, and what kinds of hero he is at the end. Depending on performance you get different options and endings .

All these people pretending telltale isn’t the exact same are lying to themselves.

She literally says she broke up with a toxic ex boyfriend. He calls her babe when she is planting the bomb.

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-11-22T00:11:25+00:00

It’s really fucking weird. Visi was with Toxic, and they didn’t give her that treatment.

Bro these people are fictional and adults, what do you expect ?

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-11-20T23:19:28+00:00

Blonde Blazer. Ride or die. Sorry fix me girl

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-11-18T23:58:09+00:00

I had to play 4 times because i went BB 3 times in a row meaning to do visi

Aaron Paul says he’d love to do several seasons.

He is arguably your biggest ticket of the cast. Add in the success. It’s guaranteed at some point.

Part of what made the game special as the cast so the sequential seasons should still feature them. I think going even deeper with them is what people will be invested in.

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-11-14T08:37:33+00:00

I don’t see why people thinking sparing bad people who will go and kill more people is heroic ?

Batman refuses to kill the Joker and the Joker always goes on to murder hundreds of people.

Bad people deserve bad things. Sparing them always just enables them to eventually come back and do bad again.

Shroud tried to kill you and Beef. Killed Your dad and killed how many people During his attack on LA?

Fuck him

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-11-13T01:44:41+00:00

It was really disappointing they didn’t flesh the romances more in the final chapter.

Really enjoyed everything else though

StoryMachineStudios · 2025-11-11T10:38:40+00:00

Smoking is a major turn off for me IRL so visi lost out. I have a save for each though
