That's a good question that deserves multiple answers.
But why is this month's deadline any more important to you in believing him than all of the previous (missed) deadlines over the past two years? Just generally curious about the thought process, that's all.
I agree and I feel a little bad for being too hard on him if what he says is true, telling him to put up or shut up. Even if it's possible that it's a scam, it's also possible that it isn't. My initial reaction become sort of an in-between reaction, not very mean but not very nice either. But if his mental health really is that bad, I shouldn't add to it. And I rather be kind to a scammer than mean to someone who might be close to doing something stupid to himself. Still I think he should stop accepting money until he releases something. Unless he desperately needs the money, it is really the best thing he could do.
If you've waited this long, you might as well wait until the dev's next stated deadline, which is the end of the month. He says we will have at least a trailer if not 0.1, or he will give up. Can't imagine him giving up on free money, but let's see how it goes. If he can't even throw together a shitty 20 to 30-second teaser trailer in 30 days then there really isn't much hope that a full game will ever be completed. That means either no motivation to work on the game or there isn't enough existing content to pull from. Sounds like it may be a little of both.Waiting for this game for ages now.
Maybe I should stop...
I guess you're right.
If that isn't true self-criticism then what is I think its amazing.
But that's the confusing part. He apparently has already created a full game called Dark Neighbourhood. Now, I've never played it myself because the render style seems off and the characters look butt ugly to me however it has some good ratings. The quality jump from his first game to this game is astounding. That probably has something to do with why this one has faltered. Overambitious + high expectations + too many animations + personal anxieties = dead in the water.Have i told you how his name ages magnificently? The more months passes the more hilariously on-point his name becomes? Psychodelusional. Well he sure seem to be under the delusion he can create visual novels
Never played that one myself to be honest and it eluded me. Hmm. Set too high of a standard and thought he'd emulate Philly or Cake? Both who came out with their 2nd title in 2019.
Those two guys are the best in the business so if you're going to emulate someone, might as well be them.
He couldnt throw together a shitty 20 second trailer in 2 years
If you think delayed games aren't worth your money do not support them and dl them 4 free when/if they come out. I've heard rumours that this website, where we're currently having this pointless argument, provides folks with the opportunity to do that very thing 100s of times every month.
Interesting, the numbers are moving back up. I would have thought they would wait until after the 15th, but I guess not.
If anything I think it will just be a very short trailer, but meh...we'll see.
