why does the mother wear her wedding ring on the wrong hand?
I'm not saying this is the case, but something to ..

"In the United States (and many other Western countries), the custom is to wear wedding rings on the fourth finger of the left hand. But in many other countries, it’s traditional to place wedding ring sets on the right hand instead."

I dont know who else is working(if is) on this game, but he need a fucking help. Dark Cookie now have like 6 employees, and he is doing all the work alone? Not to mention that gameplay and writing need serious improvment. I liked some scenes, especally in the last update, but overall there is much work to be done.
First: Open world means open, alive locations most of the time. Short events, small talking scenes, whatever
Second: Earning money in this game is such dumb shortcut. Computer minigame that takes no ingame time? Working shifts in a shop would make more sense(and that location is already in the game)

That I remember, he has some help. At least with writing, according to the credits of his games, the writer is Onyxdime.

Falshood? Game isn't updated for a year and you say falshood? When game is not updated for a year it is dead.
Absolutely not - happy for us. The game is dead only when the creator announces that he has abandoned work on it. Unfortunately, sometimes you have to wait long for the next string, but waiting is not giving up.

yeah sure, the game is "abandoned" just because the author says so, totally hasn't happened before that a bunch of Patreon "creators" left after milking the game for more they planned leaving the patreons in the dark and keep paying for it.

The "update" wasn't much of an "update" as it should be. So ye, "12+ months" is accurate timeline
An update is still an update regardless of how much content was implemented. Game is not dead just because you're unhappy with the last one. His last patreon post was on the 27th of June, announcing the poll results. It takes an awful lot of time for the guy to continue to push high quality content and you're forgetting that he only took a break this one time for the first time in four years of game development.
He's also had real-life issues to deal with and has only recently come back on track.

It has been almost 9 months (i do not count the Christmas special so 11/18/18) The creator has very little contact and just releases a render here and there. These renders can very well just be unpublished work from 2018. Until an actual update is released it is more than fair that a person can feel the game is either abandoned or dead. I think an update will come but also can see 8/6 come and go without a release too.

I am not talking about dificulties in his real life no do I talk about the creator of the game. I am talking about game being dead, since "real content update" is released.

But you see you put this in a reasonable perspective right now which is fine. But these "game is dead" kinda comments are not quite reasonable or fair. I understand the emotional upheaval but the reaction to this is just as understandable i think so.

Im not on either side, but that's reasonable point of view.

I feel like situations like these and how easy it is to get away with it, will create sooner or later more developers that will just what we like to call it ''milk'' their customers in some ways.

Little ol' cynical me always being 50/50 on things tells me that Dev's are not completely honest and it's just as easy to use the ''hey something happened IRL'' card and in my opinion some use that as an smoke shield, because you just can't really confirm that, but if patrons are okay with that then i guess more power to them.

Im not hating on ICSTOR, i love his games and im sure that he didn't abandon the project and will release update like it was planned, i just think that people are just too naive when it comes to development of some games lately, but it's not about me, it's their money.

I think it's better now to just take ''i don't give a f'' stance about when update comes out and just forget about it, check update list or previews from time to time and play whatever new interests you or just do something else beyond these games. :rolleyes:

"Ok, let's see what are people talking about milfy city"

I mean, to be honest what else do you expect people talk about at this point?
Everything has been said or speculated at this point and there's not really new info to talk about, so people will bring back the most obvious topic.

The only thing to prevent this would be closing the thread, it's not like people will talk for 9 months about the content we all know that will be there in the next update.

Coming here thinking that there will be some fresh topic out of nowhere without content to talk about is pure foolishness. :rolleyes:

My father was a junkie who would screw anyone over for a fix including his own family and completely lacked empathy for anyone, because of his overriding need for a fix of heroine. Reading some of the angry comments here that completely disregard the creator's health and and the fact he hadn't taken time off in 4 years and angry petulance about the delay makes me think that some people here should check into rehab for their sex addiction.

An overwhelmingly absurd amount of people said:
Game is dead
I'm done responding to these type of posts. No matter how much credible evidence you throw at them, they act like Teflon pans.
For example:
I told someone that the guy wanted a few months off to sort himself out as well as take a break.
Most normal jobs give each employee 1-2 months off per year spread out in periods of a week here and a week there. This doesn't seem to matter to the butthurt community that have no right to be butthurt as I bet none of them are actual patrons. ICSTOR takes a few months off and they seem to think he's quitting. And get all ants in their pants about it.
I. Am. Done. Trying. To. Talk. Sense. Into. Them. And. Will. Henceforth. Cease. Taking. The. Bait.
