Imagine if the patreons and supporters actually decided to work together and high pressure him in to tight deadlines with maximum efficiency, then we would have the best game in the world by now instead of a lying cheater. Truly, rich and wealthy people have low EQ (emotional quotient)
There is no way to pressure a freelance developer to work more or the way you want. Should a group of dimwits attempt to start bullying him and they get too annoying and difficult to block for him, he'll simply drop the gig and you'll have another "aboned" game and a dev who starts from zero under a different alias.

Drugs are bad, mkay. Stop using whatever you're on.

Oh look, its a "Respected User" and a "Engaged Member" who's hurt his spending is getting disrespected. Like if you don't like guys like these lol.

Look it's not the dimwits but the people give him money that will punish and yeah its BETTER if he drop the gig and disappear than have this fake game be made this way.

"you'll have another "aboned" game and a dev who starts from zero under a different alias."

Ah so you know how they actually do it from the inside huh, can't even blacklist Alex as he will go in a different name. More people should see this and never support any developer who don't have shorter deadlines and frequent high quality updates

how to understand? people pay money monthly for 5 years and the game has advanced by 30 percent and the update for half a year has a maximum of 5 animations. lol

how to understand? subscription - you pay not for the result, but simply to increase the chance that the game will not be abandoned.
whoever wants just an update - subscribes, downloads and unsubscribes. or buys the game at steam

What do I need to do for the update? Do I have to re-download the entire game? Or is there an update function or file??

Hello friends.
From today our reports will look a little different. I'll leave here a list of all the things we had planned for the first update, but which are still not done as of today. This list is more detailed. We still have a few days until April 4 and we'll try to close as many tasks as possible in those days. I'll do another post on release day with up to date information as of release day so you understand what is still missing, but is planned for the very near future.
With great gratitude, Super Alex.

______________________
Q&A (here I collect the most relevant questions from the comments on the previous post and answer them here):
Will the story and plot be the same as the original version or will it be different?

In general, it will be the same setting, but the logical chain of narration and sequence of events has been significantly improved (in my opinion).
What are the plans for the existing Bonus scenes? Will they be incorporated into the story, remain standalone, or something else?
Some of the bonus scenes will be reworked and placed in the main story. With the other part I haven't decided how to proceed yet, most likely they will be publicly available. With the release of the remaster - I'm giving up the idea of two versions of the game (with and without bonus scenes), there will be only one version that includes all the content. Bonus scenes we no longer do and do not plan to, we'd rather focus on the main characters story scenes to speed up the development of the game.
Any questions you have, ask in the comments and I will answer them in the next progress report.

The closer we get to the release the more I get the feeling we'll get a fucking washed version of a remake with nearly all content missing even though the progress with the release date announcement said 96% or what. Guess they're already looking for excuses when this half finished unneccessary remake gets released with actual no new content/progress.

I'm pretty sure it will be a huge disappointment, ngl.

there is a chance this could happen but i do have some hope its decent only cause the preview renders seem good , the dev has been doing transparent communication regulary and is getting rid of the 2 version system.

Believe me, nothing would make me happier than seeing an actual good version of Amnesia with focus on storytelling and relationships etc. The art is already amongst the best this site has to offer (yes I even prefer it over the Dr.). But it's really tough to have faith. Maybe I need to keep my expecations that low so that there is an actual chance of getting positively surprised.

I think the smart thing to do is not download the first version of the remake, but the second version when they've fixed everything. personally, I'll do it that way
