My theory is that he doesn't want the repeat of Previews in the #40s because it gives the illusion that the wait wasn't that long if we only get 15 previews.
how much fuss to wait until the end of august. it is imminent, DPC is working 24/7 for you and this is your appreciation....

you should join his discord so that he can ban you, you deserve it

DPC is very slow regarding Preview in episode 11. There is no new preview for 2 weeks. :cry:
well considering that the plot of Being a DIK is so predictable, I guess DPC is trying to put out a preview that won't let us predict the entire plot of Chapter 11. :KEK:

Weird how that only seems to apply to his games. Other devs don't encounter that problem and post multiple previews at a time and manage not to spoil their entire story. There is also this groundbreaking, almost alien technology on discord that lets you spoiler tag stuff for people that want to avoid it.:rolleyes:

I bet we are 1 update away from 'previews' of the sky, because he can't find a non spoiler render.

Hell, you can do a little exercise, just go through older episodes, pick a random render with its respective lines of dialogue and see if and/or how it would ruin the story for you.
For example, if DPC released the render below as a preview, dialogue included, without any added context, would it ruin the experience for you?
For me I think it'd just intrigue me and leave me wondering which posters and what is up with that, but for the doctor this is probably the equivalent of leaking the whole game's story...

Don't beat Troy up if you want Jill, I think.
anyway, you can beat up troy even if you go for Jill or Balla
DPC's intention was probably to make the players hate Maya. I mean, the grandma sandpaper skin along with the haircuts? I can't deny that he probably chose that 80s hairstyle for her because he thought that people wouldn't really like it. It looks outdated to say the least. I'm one of the few that think it suits her, but I don't think DPC meant it to. The infamous mop hair that Sage wears in Season 1 is literally the same as Maya's original hairstyle, except a little bit longer. Isn't it weird how he changed Sage's hairstyle almost right away, whilst with Maya he waited until Episode 10 and even then it's that 1980s hairdo that he picked out for her? It just seems to me like DPC really hates Maya and probably wants the players to hate her too. That's why Maya is portrayed as a dumbass in the game. That's also why he gave Maya's model the fakest looking breasts in the entire game. Ever notice how the MC makes a firm remark of Lily's boobs being fake when they don't even look like it, but never does he say anything like that about Maya's boobs which are obviously fake? What's also interesting is that in some early WIP renders you can see how much he's played around with the other character models and yet Maya has stayed the exact same since then, here's an early render showing both Josy and Maya at the same time during development:

i dont hate Maya, she was my favorite until Rio learnt how to smile xD

Hugging Maya means you can't stand up for Sage against Chad.
you can stand up, but cant push him, only call for security

Yeah, this has always surprised me too, especially compared to promotional videos for a film or a next episode of a TV series, where they usually try to show the most catchy scenes and phrases. But the AVN devs are wary of any hint of a spoiler for what will happen in the next update. While TV shows typically release one episode per week in a season of ten to twenty episodes, the average AVN developer produces as much content as one episode of a TV show in about a year. I guess that's why they are afraid to make spoilers for the new update.

Even if that was the case he has never released a render with dialogue, this picture without dialogue would have revealed nothing about ep 10, as would probably 5800 of the renders from that episode (68 being spoilers is probably still generous).
