I still couldn't understand 'developers' who unable to provide compatibility of a save/load system throught releases. It's so silly and unprofessional.
And yes, I know what I'm talking about after 15 years in software development.
Well, like 90% of the software devs, with or without 15 years ... you're wrong.
Normally it's like you say, but if you USE YOUR HEAD, you'll see that almost everytime game changes the content from the beginning and it's not just adding things. This will obviously lead to missing vars/props in the save game, making it quite hard and frankly impossible to manage. They even change simple things, order of events, triggers and so. Perhaps a custom made save system would work, but it's Ren'py, so not much to customize there.

Obviously, it's annoying, but they keep improving the story, not just adding to it. The solution ? Play only every 3-4 versions, like once a year. Or wait for someone else to give you a save game. Which kinda conflicts with what I said before.

If you wanted to be right, then complain that 16.0 and 16.1 saves will not be compatible, even if 16.1 contains just bug fixes, that should not impact the save system.

Basically, I wasted 1-2h of my life, getting to the crash with the Insurance... only to have to replay everything in the next days when they release 16.1 or 16.3 or whatever. Now THIS is the issue, not what you're saying.

I mean it's not even that bad. The new Roxxy story basically starts on day 2 and you'll have to replay 15 minutes of old content to grind some stats at best while you can igonore every other storyline completely. Sure, if you want to play without cheat mode that may be different but I guess that's just a very small minority of players.

Somehow, I don't see the pizza minigame revamp as an improvement. Your vehicle just stays in place while the map just goes by, which makes it look odd. Another point that makes no sense is that, having in mind that you can't stop, it doesn't make any sense to buy a faster vehicle.

You're free to believe it's not a well managed project if you will. But everyone hired has come together and it's been a process you can't ignore. From starting from scratch to allowing a free product, DC has successfully crowdfunded a game and continues to do so.

Yes, DC worked in the gaming industry and has that potential to create games for publishers. But your "standards" don't really apply since AAA publishing and indie publishing have dissimilar standards.

Why you guys get worked up on your Mental Masturbation projects, I've no idea.

Just don't get your stains on the wall...
I am free to do so and I have my reasons, and for some reason a few have taken issue with that.

I've worked both on indie and AAA games, there are general practices that I don't believe DC follows which impact the game.

I don't know how many times I can repeat and explain myself. I've never expressed anger just disappointment.

What I'm talking about isn't your EMM or whatever. It's simply observations into his development process and opinions on them. I've offered general solutions simply because I've been asked to do so.

I played through the new content without any issues, except maybe the shooting gallery game being rigged to fail.

Also, locker sex should be standard-issue with each girl.
