No IES profiles, just ghostlights placed where I think the light should be / keeping the light simple to improve render times
With regard to Visual Novels: for me, it’s more a nostalgia thing, as I was playing them before most in the West knew what they were (finding them on bulletin boards and wading through tons of hiragana / kanji, trying to make sense of it all). That, and I’ve been writing stories most of my life, and I like telling stories.
VNs are akin to those ‘choose your own adventure’ games, and if done well (that is, the creator has actually bothered to write a story), then they work well, imho.
As for market saturation, I see it the other way around: there’s too many 3D games where you run around and blow stuff up, race, kill, exploit, build worlds, etc. Though, logically, there’s too much of everything: it’s all down to choosing your poison and getting on with it, every taste and kink and quirk being fully catered for by one group or another.
We are in an age where creativity trumps everything, especially if AIs do their thing as promised, so it’s time to start being creative or become obsolete

Really great interior result are the lights driven by ies profiles ?
So many make these pre renderd story games i feel like back in Myst days though it feels so odd because technology advanced we need more realtime 3D
I played The Journeyman Project, Myst and all the Flash Director Novel style games jesus that even where interactive with video sequences you can think of and i hardly can understand this hype for japanese visual novels so old concepts so freaking boring to click through zillion of lines of text seeing a graphic to click through 10000 lines of text again and then rinse and repeat just to see a freaking story continue , though mostly the russians seem to mimic asians
I like to watch anime or hentai much more then to click my mouse to the death through these Japanese Novels doing nothing really interactively then todo a mud decission and to be honest some try now to mix novels in a adventure style jesus i don't get it why they don't do a point a click adventure instead would have much more interactivity.
And then you have 5000000000 zillion patreon guys trying to make a living from that
and 50000000 crazy titles rendered via Daz Studio the most happy about this is Nvidia

And to be honest some try now to mix novels in a adventure style jesus you clicking like crazy on the screen searching for a hotspot and they use unity for this crap totally crazy a super advanced 3D Rendering Engine is missused for Crap Pre Rendered Novels i don't get it.
