RPGM Bones' Tales: The Manor [v0.30.3 Hotfix] [Dr Bones]

[Ifllslonly]

It's really interesting how this whole "adult games industry" works. Devs work endlessly on the same game, adding an astronomically high amount of characters to the game, to the point of the game being just a shell of the original premise. We see devs giving "crumbs" for content and people showering them with money, not even knowing when or if they will deliver the product. And this is totally sustainable for the devs, since they get their paycheck monthly. This is nuts.

Small ecosystem with lack of competition among devs that 100% regulated by supporters/players.
Huge quality gaps between games doesn't help, so people tend to believe as long as they can, because there is no alternatives for them or at least they think so - simping mentality basically.
So, the main problem is a lack of regulation and awareness - many think that support is a tip for a work and not an investment (it's only "you name it" bucks, come on).


This can only be helped by helping small/new devs with less potential and good/clear work ethic much more than it's currently is now in order to make ecosystem less one-sided and scummy - but you need a lot of awareness for this.

You can't have a 100% save file since some of the scenes are locked behind different character states.

Congrats your continuous and loyal support for Bones is repaid with an update bait! Money well spent I'd say

Unless bones release updates every month or two both games can be considered abandoned.

u can blame the dev for bad work ethics but it's mostly people who mindlessly spend their money at the dev who are the real problem, I get that it's everyones own decision what they do with their money but they incentivize that behavior by feeding the dev with money even tho he was practically dead for years... Nothing will change as long as the dev has infinite money glitch basically but that's what it is in those types of games

I don't really blame anyone and don't care about this particular dev nor his games tbh - he is at least funny and clear with his irony like: "$3,112 of 10,000 per month I'll hire a maid to clean my house only in lingerie... And some other stuff." and "But, above all, I'm a skeleton, So I'm trustworthy."
He also made the game with bestiality and incest - I can respect him for this sole fact.
As long as people are happy with his work ethic and he doesn't lie - I don't care.

After Abandoning this good game he started another one - what a shame
Survivor Guilt i will not play that game ever
At least Bones Tales: Manor got better Npc's

I'd say the issue is also with the patreon system that rewards them every month with money without the owner actually posting any updates.
It is also the people who subscribe to them but forget to cancel it.

I noticed that most adult games that end up on steam have the bar set way higher and get constant updates, and probably more money as well.

Well the thing is patreon itself doesn't care if the creator gets money without working since they get their percentage and are happy with that. The only thing they care about is broken ToS and that isn't the case for devs who don't update even for years. But it's really baffling how people keep subscribing to a creator which hasn't posted anything productive in a year before releasing the update, it just seems kinda irrational to me.

 

[Narky1280]

Just saying I'm waiting for it to update. the manor to pay, I still have faith in it

Folks please, use the goddamn search funktion before you ask a question that gets asked 3 times per page. Jesus goddamn christ.

Considering that an update of the other Dr. Bones game has just been released, a part of me restored my faith that someday this game will also be updated.

He didn't Abandoned this game "to start a new game". Survivor guilt has been on the making since like 2019 and that one is also moving like a crippled slug. Took him over a year to add a tavern minigame.

So both are just cashcows for his idiot patreons.

As of making this comment, the subscribestar is at $3,112 a month with 3,604 people subscribed, for that amount of money I would be happy to learn how to code and draw to make a project like this, because i would have the time since people would be paying for me to live.

Yep, me too. I know a friend that studies Python and I showed him this forum, he seems interested in Ren'py. I'm a music composer myself and I have some knownledge on how to draw. I'm willing to invest in some graphic tablet, also studying Javascript and C# for other reasons, then I can try to code in ren'py.

Someday I'll debut something new over here.

For all of you who thirst for an update, know it'll probably arrive next year, or year after
