I'm so sorry for patreon supporters!!
Just looking at work and progress of other developers shows that which one is milking it and which is real deal. For example jackerman is releasing high quality videos ( over 5 minutes and with voice over) more often than every update of this developer( with 500 renders)!
This is just playing with eager and lust of peaple whom want to play a good game.
Btw this game is not a game anymore its just a story that gonna be told in short episodes every 6 month.
I agree with this.
One thing to keep in mind is that while someone like whoever you're talking about might be releasing updates quite regularly, it entirely depends on the kink you're looking for.
For quite a while, L&P delivered created content consistently, for those that liked good quality content with a female protag that gave the option to not have her whore herself out to every old, ugly, impotent fucker. It's what attracted me to the game. And what still does so. Many games over the years have adapted this model, which is awesome, and partly why I still am active in this thread.
The real advantage of this game, and why I believe it has weathered the test of time, is purely the loyalty that this decision has garnered.
I mean, I skip a good 3/4 of the content L&P puts out, but I'm still here waiting for the content that I do enjoy.
That crappy band from the 90s? Don't believe either she or Sophia are Irish
And I partly disagree with this.
I see myself as “the person shackled because I played Part 1.”
Even though I don't think I'll ever see the ending of this game, but I can't leave this forum because I'm obsessed with wanting to see the end, whether this game fails or is completed, and I think I'm not the only one.
This may be about what you think loyalty is, and I like to express it in the words “being held hostage.”
And it is not this game that has stood the “test of time,” but its developer.
As you said, paying subscribers helped the developer of this game not give up on it.
But in this game, nothing has been developed/completed even after spending a lot of time on it.
Just counting the episodes/characters that this developer gave up or deleted, it could have saved us years, and this developer tried to implement other systems in this game to prove the value of time, but he only disappointed his subscribers.
For one thing, at the end of this game, there will be someone's pregnancy and someone's departure.
This means a time jump.
- Without the time jump, unless Dylan and Ellie have sex in this update and Ellie gets pregnant, no one can get pregnant and no one will know about the pregnancy until the end of the game.
The developer used time jumps early in the game and plans to use them again near the end, but is refusing to listen to subscribers' requests to "use them now."
And if this is a normal game, players should be given a quest (or something else) with every update.
But, this game is not functioning as a normal game, as if you haven't played the game in years, as if I have lost the route, as if someone enjoys fan art more, as if directing new users to the gallery.
Literally, this game is nothing more than a magazine book about enjoying bikini photos, and the text is just a decoration that gives meaning to the bikini photos. but it's meaningless
(Of course, it wasn't like this during Part 1. I believe so, and that's why I'm disappointed now.)
