Some people have a weird fixation on animations, going so far as to rate any game without them with one or two stars. That is something I absolutely can't understand. The attraction these games have to me comes from the combination of visuals and storytelling/writing, so whether the visuals are animations or stills wouldn't matter much as long as they look good and there is enough variation in a specific scene. If I just want to watch moving pictures of two people bumping together, there are so, so many sites where I can find that in any combination and in any form, real life, animation or CG animation, that's certainly not why I am interested in visual novels. Which brings me to my second point, if I have to choose between these 1-second-3-renders animations and a couple of different stills, I vastly prefer the stills. It's much more diverse, much more engaging. Now, animations coupled with stills, that tell the "story" together absolutely no problem, can be great, but if I have to choose 2 short animation loops and 10-15 stills, again, I would gladly choose the latter. I really have encountered well written games where the erotic scenes fall horrible flat, because the dev just adds 2 animations together and that is all. And one more thing, where I don't know whether anybody else feels that way, I hate whenever VNs have single "choices" where I can't proceed without pressing an icon with the mouse and tbh. that doubly goes for sex scenes. Like if you fe. have animations that continue, and you can't just skip to the next pic with the spacebar, because you have options to increase speed or change the POV (which are both fine in general, mind you), that often breaks the immersion for me. Having to use the mouse to move to an icon/button on the screen while enjoying a "stimulating" scene, takes me out of it. So, like I wrote, don't know if anybody else feels that way, but for me, I would always prefer to at least have the option to skip from the animation to the next phase just by pressing the spacebar.

I prefer a well-written story

Nice, but not critical. A few loop animations help, but batting eyelashes animations feel excessive.

i think we are limited to one vote here, when i go from importance to quality it seems to move my vote ( previous bar decreases and the one i click increases )

I think an adjustment needs to be made here. You are only allowed one vote for the poll, yet you're asking about two different polls. Maybe another post for the 1-5 review of the re-do's would be a better option for those of us who want to vote in that choice too.

Firstly, your animations are smooth and of great quality. Second, HQ animations adds a lot of value to these kinds of games and helps set them apart from the scores of similar games on the market. That said, it's not a deal breaker if there are no animations at all. More important than the frequency or quality of animations is the staging and presentation of a sex scene. If you choose terrible angles or the scene lacks passion, then the animations wouldn't make a difference. Needless to say, your game offers the full package, so you've got nothing to worry about with your current quality output!

I really don't care if it has high or low quality, the most important thing for me is a good STORY. I think reworking a story with newer animations takes valuable time away from continuing a game's story and causes unnecessary wait.
