The News will be;
The CG's are finished, I'm just improving the Script, it's a lot of work because now there are no animations and I have to update the Script. XDDDD
So there will still be no remaster or Update, but it's good that you are optimistic.
Well at least the Thread hasnt abandoned yet. We are still here to keep the thread posting but thats about it

yup and he doesn't say "my goal is to release before i go," he says "my goal is to have everything wrapped up before i go" which is intentionally vague. in late november he'll post in platinum discord, "okay now that everything is wrapped up i just need to proofread and finish the last 7-8 scenes and then we'll be good!"

What a tragedy, I had so much hope with this game, right now there is only ONE western NTS game where development is going smoothly and we all know which one it is.

My New Girlfriend, Netorase Phone, Moonripple Lake, Vulgar Reverie, Stay Online, My Girlfriend Fulfills My Netorase Dreams (I guess that one's not "western" but neither is BtW, so I don't even understand your comment?)... just one going smoothly?

Vulgar Reverie is the real deal. Perhaps I should have described in a different manner than "going smoothly" what I mean is that a game like Reverie is the full package, great art, teasing, pacing, likeable wife and MC, and so on. It is the highest western NTS standard we have right now. *And of course, so far dev has been consistent in his updates.

Well phone style games are nice and all but they are also limited in the range of possibilities they can offer, after a while they do get quite repetitive. As for AI based games, I don't have any hateboner against AI, it's just that in my experience with AI based games, the dev didn't bother putting much attention into the narrative structure, I believe this happens because with hand drawn art, dev must carefully plan what each CG will depict which makes him consider how the plot will go with more attention. With AI based art you can just make stuff up as you go along, there is not much price to pay for it. Blurring the walls was the great promise, an AI based game that seemed to have a good and well planned plot, which is why I am sad to see what has happened to the project.

I'm sad, too, but I'm also an extremely patient person and there's no shortage of games I'm interested in playing, so I haven't felt the frustration of others. I'm more sad that the delay in development has brought the negative perception to the project and all the hate that the dev has gotten as a result. I still look forward to the update.
And here we can see different tastes at work! I consider "Vulgar Reverie" average for several reasons and is one of the few NTS games where my finger is on the "Strg" key most of the time. Just seeing the droopy,"I am so getting NTR´ed hard" face of the MC makes me want to click the red x. I have nearly a dozen NTS games I would put well before "VR" when it comes to story, likeable characters, etc.
Once upon a time "Blurring the walls" seemed to go into the right direction very well, then the NTR dicks made their move trying to force NTR into the game, also Torimiata made some rather questionable decisions and now this game is dead in the water.
I see it similar.

In an alternate timeline...
"Hey guys, v0.5.2 just dropped and I'd like to preface this with a heartfelt thank you for the interest thus far. It's most likely going to be a hefty amount of time (which I can't pinpoint precisely) untill the next update for the following reasons:
- [detail AI production pipeline here for whoever cares]
- [explain why you're doing what you're doing now]
- [reinforce that you are not a full time developer here]
That said, the game is not abandoned, and I will not be going into NTR. Feel free to unsub if you expect an update in the following months, and to those who don't, thank you for your trust and see you in the future.
Then spend the next few months sprinkling in some alternative art on "what if" scenarios while you do wathever you're doing behind the scenes, keep teasing some events on the future update, and you're golden. Clusterfuck avoided. It's a god damm miracle how some people manage to entomb themselves in immense pits of shit when you can just be honest.
