Would be interesting to see that happening. Adam needs to be taken down a peg or two for what he's done throughout the story (that really bummed me that he didn't got his comeuppance when I saw the project was abandoned). Wasn't expecting to hear of the dev after what happened some months ago.
On the upside, this means they might appear again next year. /sYep, seems TLG only returned for the Day of the Dead, warned fans about the Steam scam (something really obvious), and returned to his tomb again to sleep meanwhile some fans are arguing over his disappearance.
If he comes back and finishes, that would be great. I personally don't need to hear why he left. But that's just me.
I am not concerned with the reasons either, i do hope it's not serious problems or such but it's his creativity that interests me. It's a damn good story/game and i like it, would like to see more.
I have a feeling this was the reaction of the person trying to sell it on Steam.
But seriously, glad to see you back and you doing alright.
Honestly, me too. I would prefer if he at least gave a sign that he would or would not continue with the development without explaining what happened, if in case he doesn't feel comfortable... But who knows, in the future he might feel comfortable talking to us, and share what made him abandon this game before...
This is the only apt commentary regarding this shit. I mean this is literally it; it proves the guy is ok and not nuked out of the orbit or something, is in touch with this side of the world still, and when needed and wants to, can get in touch with people, but what he does is zilch nada, NOT A SINGLE WORD ABOUT ANYTHING. People have been worried, perplexed, distressed, frustrated, disappointed, angry all kinds of things and he can't be bothered for a single explanation, but when he wants to he can pop right back in and out on a dime. Y'all this behaviour is the definite seal, even more so than whatever happened back then that it is useless to expect anything. This dispels any notion that something catastrophic happened and the guy is unable to communicate; but the truth is he can't be half arsed to say anything. Like come on, you are shutting down for good, what difference does it make to give a two line explanation stating what and why...
If you werent a patron he doesnt owe you shit bud. He may owe them one (I was a patron and I dont care as long as the dude is okay), but not really. No one deserves anything. They immediately stopped taking money the moment they weren't releasing. Being a patron doesnt mean you bought something, it means you're helping to fund or back something and sometimes stuff doesnt get finished. Whatever the reasons, its up to them if they feel like sharing or not. If it was a scam I'd care, but they didnt keep taking. They cut it off when they could've milked the game for months. Could've just quit one day OR could've been through something personal thats not for anyone here. I'm personally just glad dude is alive. I'd love for the game to be finished, but whats important is that they are okay. No dev on here owes anyone anything. Even if they never intend to finish the game, probably the worst way to go about it if they wanted to finish, is aggressively demanding to know their private matters. You know, demanding things when it would be far less work to just turn the account back off.
maybe he at least owes an explanation to those who donated to him in making chapter 6 happen, idk... abandoning the game without a word is kind of a shitty way to do it ngl.
Then don't even start, bro. Some characters are so good and make you feel such emotional attachment that it will be very painful to realize that there will be no continuation.
I said in an earlier post that maybe he owes his patreon an explanation, but patreon is backing a project with no guarantee he'll finish it. I feel people's pain with it not being finished, I really do. I backed this game from way back when. He didn't milk anyone though, he was clearly working until he shut down his patreon. He easily could have for months. The demands for the explanation are whats silly. Like I get you want him to finish the game or explain why he couldn't, but demanding things from people, especially a person who can just log off and pretend you dont exist cause you're being a dick, is probably not the safe route. What people want and what they are actually owed are two completely different things.
its a time thing. After 6 months with zero updates a game reported can be marked as abandoned. The news his patreon was down as well kinda sealed it.
You wanna finish your fucking game bud?
I agree 100% brother
thank god you are alive
