and delete the saves with it?
Update before this one had a save file just for the Academy, you should be able to find it here. You could also just try to keep the last save file and just delete everything else and see if it works, if it does, you should see the last mage by the small lake.

From what I've seen on discord some fucking loser is stealing Auril's games and selling them on other websites, so yeah..
Sounds like karma coming back on them for getting greedy and trying to maintain two games solo as they leech their subscribers dry with a completion rate of maybe 1-2 years for something that used to take 4-6 months.

Karma would be people sharing the game for free to others, and not some dipshit stealing your work to then make a profit off it, don't be an idiot, this is the kind of thing that kills games, not to mention the attention that it attracts.
I don't know about you, but I'd rather take delayed updates over no game at all.

karma can come in many different forms, to call me an idiot for my opinion while you freely give yours, just makes you terrible at public discourse. The moment you don't like what someone has to say, you just resort to name calling.

You are clearly very emotionally invested into this particular artist. However, your emotional state doesn't dictate my level of intelligence. If you don't like what someone has to say, you should attempt to disagree in a respectful manner or simply block them if the comment is just too much for you to handle emotionally.

I've given this artist more than my fair share of money over the years when they were properly working on a singular game and giving back to their donors. I'll voice my displeasure however I see fit as I've paid for that right. There are people even now paying the same and even more per month for an artist that has turned their testing completion rate from 1 month to 2-3 months per update with significantly less content per months spent.

Even if we mention their other completely generic cookie cutter Silicon Lust game, they aren't even doing those subscribers any justice either. They get even less content per update for a game that you can find dozens of on various other sites.

If people wish to rip them off and try to make money on stuff they made, then it sounds like they had it coming as they've increased their profits astronomically and haven't delivered on their full time promise on subscribestar.

They are getting 2,790 on subscribestar.
They are getting 1,602 on patreon.

They're making nearly 4400 USD a month and are putting out little to no content in twice the amount of wait time compared to when they weren't a full time developer yet. If this is them working full time on making games, then I'd rather them go back to work at their other source of income as they were clearly better at managing time back then.

Really hate these smoothbrain arguments. "Karma" lol, grow up. Nobody is forced to support them financially. If people do it then it's their own decision. There are way worse projects that have been in development for YEARS and still aren't even close being done where people still support their patreons or whatever.
I don't support Auril because the updates take too long and are rather small. So I just check the forum for updates occasionally. Update out? Splendid. It isn't? I come back later.

If you are so seriously obsessed with updates of stuipd coomer games you should honestly rethink your life choices. Go play other games or do something else with your life. Jesus christ

Nobody ever suggested it wasn't someones "own decision". That doesn't take away from the fact that by all available knowledge, it is a rather terrible decision. As soon as this income would fall away the creator would be re-incentivized to step up their effort. Which would be better for all parties. As soon as that happens, they can have back my support. But until that happens, I'm out. My support had gone back well over 10 years ago. I only dropped it when the updates stopped coming timely.

Levy is right, you can call them a smoothbrain or an idiot for their opinion but it stands tall above both of yous.

I don't recall anyone saying they were required to do so. They got much bigger popularity wise and became lazy in their commitments, leaving pathways for others to exploit. This is a problem of their own making, artists who stay on top of their projects rarely get one for one copied. However, since they have such little presence with their current projects despite their growing popularity, it creates space for people to try and exploit those long periods of time where the artist doesn't even mention or promote their own stuff. If not for the one person that handles their updates, you'd honestly never know this artist or game existed outside of a very small circle.

Seems to be a few people in here that simply cannot take an opinion without resorting to personal attacks against others level of intelligence, as if it's some sort of gotcha. You do realize that people can discuss things and not be obsessed right?

Sounds like you made a level headed decision to not support an artist that is clearly not giving it their all, despite the goals that said they would if reached. I too revoked my support some time ago when it was clear I was simply being milked while they put less and less effort in.

A less level headed decision is to infer that others are simply smooth brains or obsessed coomers for commenting on a message board loaded down with tons of porn, as if the person who said it is somehow above everyone they just looked down upon.

May I suggest that you reflect on how you view others when you intend to give your opinion and condemn people for the very same thing you, yourself, are doing?
