My comments in full came from a frustration of people calling this game abandoned. We told people as early as we possibly knew that the game was being reworked and retooled, and how long we expected it to take. That's where the frustration on my end has come from, is us being upfront about our timed schedule and still getting called crooks (Yes, a year at the latest is still lame, but we haven't broken a promise we've made yet).
With a studio of our size, splitting the budget that we have, even amongst Amity Park and BF, it just takes time. Epadder has been working tirelessly on the coding for Amity Park, I've had to make a number of backgrounds and screenshots to line up and make for every single background we already had in the game + more for the new scenes, and there's been a number of new h-scenes being put in by GZone and Psymind.
I'll say I apologize for being "Shitty to the fans". But I didn't think that person's comment was warranted back then, and neither did the guy who said it afterwards. He realized he was wrong and said he didn't really understand what he was saying. And I apologized for snapping at him! There's been a dozen people leaving similar comments and I didn't bite back at them in the same manner. I am genuinely sorry I let that get out, but it came out of a real place of frustration. Nobody seems to want to know more *about* the game and what we're doing, they're just asking when it's done or if it's abandoned. I want to do nothing *but* discuss the game with people.
Nobody is sick. Nobody's dying. I work 10.5 hour days in a manual job, and then still find time to work 100 hours a month for Team Bieno. It's simply a matter of time and resources, I'm serious. And, once the update comes out, Episode 8 will be out leagues ahead of schedule. That's my prediction, I don't think I can be crucified for setting an honest deadline and not fulfilling it earlier then we said we would. Idk. I'll try to do better regardless for the fans.
