I apologize on behalf of every snide remark you had to tolerate just to find a simple answer. The same information could have been conveyed to you without any attitude. But people need to feel superior so what else is new. You're lucky someone didn't take a club and beat you to death just for saying hi.

You can't apologize for others. Especially me. I say what I mean and mean what I say. It literally takes 2 seconds to check the OP for the important info. But no. Mr. "I-Read-Fast" and missed it. Even if you read fast, you can't miss the important info.
Anyways, I'm 11 pages of saves into this game. And I'm running into the usual errors with a new update. Do I really have to start the game from the beginning?

No idea. I haven't played in a long time, so I'll be restarting.

This is the beta version of 0.9b, and it's already been identified as an issue: saves might not work. I would upgrade that to "probably will not work", since it seems tons of people (myself included) can't load earlier saves with this. Just wait for the non-beta version of 0.9b and the problem will most likely have been fixed, especially since the developer (recreation) has been on here very recently and seen the comments about saves being a problem in the beta.

The mess going on in this thread highlights a fundamental problem with how updates are treated on F95. Someone leaks a broken private beta version of the game, submits it as an update, and that is now distributed as a proper update to the game without any warnings.

Yep. Probably one of the most common things on this site is that a release happens (beta or not) and within 0.0000002467 seconds someone is on here posting some variant of "Waiting for a hero!" A common consequence is that folks then post negative reviews — broken saves; errors all over the place; a scene is missing a bunch of renders; etc. — as if what they have is not representative of what the release should be like. And then people who might have supported the game at first might reconsider because the game has a really low overall review score, based on an unfinished alpha or beta version that still has a lot of work needed.
That's especially bad when the developer already has a public version scheduled for release, but just a few weeks down the road. And what's more, then the same greedy folks complain later when a dev abandons their project because they could never make any money....
Maybe they could've made decent money if they had those 4 weeks where people actively supported them because they believed in the project and they couldn't get it anywhere besides the dev's Patreon / SubscribeStar / Boosty / etc. But leaking only moments after a release despite a public version being scheduled means people who might have been willing to support if for no other reason than early access no longer have any need to do so. Awfully hard to grow a supporter base when a large part of the incentive to do so is negated.
Obviously I get it: this is a pirate site. I won't even pretend that I'm not a participant in much of that. But c'mon. You can't realistically think you're justified in whining about a project getting abandoned when in that specific case you're almost certainly a decent contributor to why it ended up failing.

recreation warned about it days and pages ago and after that thread has been filled with why this or that won't work and similar posts and replies (which no1 reads before posting their whines) that this is beta version where things don't fully work yet.
mods put to op only what's needed and not much more and even if rec's warning would been there it'd have changed nothing.

Agreed. Despite the piracy, F95 became a big contributor to the financial successes of adult games and a place where people can attract an audience for theirs. If F95 wants to continue being that way, problems like the current situation should be fixed.
Even from a purely selfish pirate's perspective, distributing a broken build of a game without properly communicating what it is will make users upset.

Yeah, unfortunately. I would be good if mods took notes on the dev's own words and then did a highlighted message on the OP. Then people would know ahead of time... which, ofc, would then get promptly ignored by several folks anyway.
Still, I do get it at least a little bit: mods probably are pretty busy with all they have to do anyway, so spending extra time on an OP eats up more of the little time they have.The real solution, ofc — more broadly speaking — is for folks to learn how to search a thread. It's not asking a lot to edit your account preferences to sort search by most recent and then to look for words that are unlikely to pull irrelevant results (like in this case looking for saves). But that's unfortunately a pipe dream.

well rec is 1 of few devs who is somewhat active on her game threads and like 99% of games here are leaked versions (from alpha versions to complete versions) so mods/uploaders won't communicate with devs nor test games.

in need of better moderation? better security against spambots? less users who expect that everything they ask is delivered on golden plate?
I am not sure why people are complaining so much......they are getting stuff here for FREE!
And to be honest the parts where we did not get pictures to the dialogue were not the lewd scenes everybody is so eager for.
I am happy and thankful to who ever leaked this beta version.
I am also a supporter of the game/dev although not in the higher tiers to get the beta on discord. Been supporting rec now for quite some time and will continue to do so as long as new versions come out at least every 6 months or so.
I look forward to the full release with all issues fixed.
The issue about saves not working is in my opinion not such a big deal. Just change the preferences to "skip unseen text", hold the shift button down and make a quick runthrough. Takes like 15 minutes of your valuable life time that you might have wasted anyway with stupid shit to be honest......

Unless you have a playthrough where you can't remember what specific choices you made before. Then you have to try to remember the choices or later have something different... and if the new outcome isn't what you want, then you have to start over again to figure out where the wrong choice was and change it. There are some games like that, so generally thinking broken saves are "not such a big deal" is definitely not something everyone will agree on. I don't remember if this specific game is complex in that way, but you shouldn't really need to figure out if it's complex in the first place when you're this far along, should you?The issue about saves not working is in my opinion not such a big deal.

I don't think it's a big deal at all that this is only a beta and saves aren't working, because you can always wait until the fixed official public version of 0.9 comes out. I just think saying broken saves are "not such a big deal" is just pretending there's not a major issue with the beta that should get fixed.
Also, what if that 15 minutes would've been spent on another game? So playing any other game is "stupid shit"? I feel like you might not have fully considered what you were typing before you posted your reply. I realize you're just expressing an opinion, but it felt like you posted your response in a hurry, not really paying as much attention as you could've. As a small example, you would hold Ctrl down, not Shift, something probably not missed if you checked your post before submitting it.
