RPGM Abandoned Bones' Tales: The Manor [v0.20.0a] [Dr Bones]

[Golem98]

I popped into the stream that Doc had today and watched a small part of it starting around 11pm (Eastern Standard Time - That's eastern Canada/USA) and watched for about 1.5 hours. These are my findings;

Spoiler: Martha Kiss & Grope Scene + Variations

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

The above is part of an already teased scene that I call the "Martha Kiss & Grope", there are 6 variations shown here. In the following order, from the top to the bottom; Martha's default outfit, her bikini (you get that from doing Yoga stuff), some sort of red underwear, white underwear (her gown that she sleeps in is my guess) and naked.

For the 6th variation shown (the smallest image), I have three guesses for it, the first is that its simply Martha's skirt pulled up a bit, and the second guess is that it's a new short skirt she wears once she is in the Passionate State, the third guess is that it's her Yoga shorts, but I am least confident in that guess and find it unlikely.

In terms of overall animation quality I would say it's about as good as the best stuff he has in the game now, though at times I thought it was better than that.

There also seemed to be three outfit options for the MC for this scene, though this was not super concrete evidence. As I simply saw image thumbnails in his File Explorer folder for a brief moment.

Doc answered some guy's question and he said 16 scenes would be added to the game. He also talked a bit about how he defines scenes and its something like one scene, regardless of the outfits, the number of animations, is just one scene, and it only counts as two if he has to change the position of the characters so much that he has to redraw them entirely. He used a Lucile event as an example and mentioned something about spanking (not currently in the game iirc), he mentioned that the scene had three parts if I heard it correctly.

Total confirmed by teasers, and Doc's words update size is now, from the past and my new discoveries is;
(+6 variations for Martha) and (+1 Scene & 3 Variations for Lucile) and (3 Unknown Scenes)

Total: 16 Scenes & 20-21 variations
(5 Martha Scenes / 8 Variations)
(2 Mia Scenes / 1 is Beasty)
(3 Lucile Scenes / 3 Variations)
(3 Vera Scenes / 9-10 Variations / 1 Scene + 5 Variations is Beasty)
(3 Unknown Scenes)

at this point he should have made comics and let the mods do the work in implementing it

[khazimsan]

any idea when he says he will post all those new scenes?

 

[Golem98]

any idea when he says he will post all those new scenes?

He said he doesn't want to give exact dates anymore, this is because of how that has become a horrible idea for him to do due to him consistently failing to meet deadlines that he set himself many times over. If I had to guess with everything that I know I feel like 1-2 months is reasonable, any further and it would be 2.5-3 months and possibly up to 3.5 months, but I find 4 and above to be incredibly unlikely.

Things to consider would be;

• The update is quite large, Doc claims to have 16 Scenes planned, and with 20-21 variations that have been confirmed by myself, through previously released teasers, listening to Doc in a previous stream and what I saw on that same stream.
  • However many of those scenes and variations were meant to be released as the second half of the previous update but that never happened, it's possible that they either stayed the same or that he had reworked them somewhat in that time. There is no mention of what exactly happened to those scenes, or whether or not he did any reworking on those, but I'm certain that they're part of this upcoming update.
• Overall animation and art quality is higher than it was in the past.
  • I personally saw one of the animations play out and it looked good compared with the ones already in game.
  • The teasers released so far (I made a post that links them all) imply that upcoming scenes have good art quality.
    • From what was shown I see a modest improvement from Doc's previous artistic improvement in previous updates, it seems like his art style is reaching the upper limit of what it can achieve in terms of quality and further improvements will become increasingly marginal (that's not a bad thing).

Why do I feel like someone was autofellating themselves while reading those "updates"?

You have more faith in them than anyone around here, then. I'd guess 6 months, maybe. If ever.

It has been a year already, and the previous update was only half of the content that was meant to be released, I feel like there is a limit to how much Doc can delay things and cause problems for the player base. The issue is the insane amounts of Yes-Men that he has in the Discord, that keep his ass in a never ending state of being kissed. I'm not joking when I say this, since I joined the Discord earlier this month it seems like nearly 200 or more people have joined, I have no clue where they're coming from but he seems to be getting a steady supply of fresh faces that haven't had to grind a year of waiting, so these people tend to have zero fatigue and are much more tolerant. Plus the Discord has a rule against asking about the updates, so it's likely that comments about it are getting removed and they possibly ban people.

In fact I would argue that many of the people here are probably older players of this game compared to the average Discord user, who are likely newer to the game on average. I myself have played the very first version of the game and my first comment was back on page 32, this was one of the first games I played on this site, I cant imagine many people on the Discord have been around as long as I have haha

I feel like they wildly overdo it when it comes to tolerance of delays, I can understand defending him in the early days when the delays were quite small, but after the long history of significant delays that Doc has established, whatever good will he has built up should have died out, at this point only cultists are blindly loyal. The fact that he failed to put out the 2nd half of an update he was working on, despite claiming he would even a year later is insane, and if I remember correctly he gave no real reason for it.

I don't mind waiting very long periods of time so long as the ratio of new content and time remains reasonable (as I had tried to explain in a previous post), I even don't mind waiting over a year so long as that ratio is fine, I've completely ignored the game for 8-14 months two or three time already, and once this new update is out, I'll do it again. However, most people aren't like that and would rather get multiple smaller updates throughout the year rather than one big update per year, I also prefer that system as well.

But realistically, all the complaining and such will get us nowhere, whatever hyper-cuck on this thread that spams reports is seemingly always watching, getting comments removed time and time again (and possibly this one too). So all we have left is to remain realistic, I think that it's likely that the update will come out not too long from now, not because Doc is going to have a change of heart and suddenly go back to how he was in the past, but because the pressure to preform has been building for quite some time and he has to relieve it.

At the end of the day this is a videogame about incest and bestiality, if you have such strong feelings that you must whine and complain despite not having put any money into it than you need to reconsider your priorities in life. If you have put money towards it than I think you're an idiot, but you at least have a reason to complain. I'm not happy about the waiting either, I don't mind making a joke at Doc's expense once every few months or whatever, but I'm not going to cry over it anytime soon.

I've watched this game since I was 20, I'm 27 now, as I get older I feel more and more like a moron for writing so much about shit like this, this is a porn game with dog and horse fucking, way too many of you take this too seriously, and to some degree even I do as I seem to be the only one for quite some time that writes so much haha

 

[aiden_vici]

I find myself sharing your estimation on when he'll deliver the update honestly, and IF he even delivers such thing
Color me surprised if he drops it before that, it'll be safe to say that i will have gasted all my flabbers

 

[S.T.A.R.S.]

Alright here's a working MZ build. Aside from the images being upscaled, the game now has native mouse support. I really just made this for myself, so I'll only be updating major bugs I come across, if any.

Known bugs:
- Diary can only be opened from your inventory, and the text is off center
- Some doors only open if you click the tile in front of them
- Some character bubbles are scuffed (Luciles morning and shower icons)
- Save is randomly locked at times (this always fixes itself before it becomes a problem for me)
- Diamond quest wont progress after giving the bag to one of the girls fixed
- "Spend day with Mia" not appearing fixed

You must be registered to see the links

Is it possible to remove fading effect(delay) between scenes/text as they are very annoying. Or somehow speed them up?

I really don't know how people reach this content and i certainly don't believe people reachs the discord first. I really guess most of the people who complains it is not about him no delivering the update, but having to watch the same behaviour on a lot of this kind of games; project is born, projects gets big, project dies at young age... it's like giving your dog chocolate, and all of this happening without any consecuences. This is something that is happening on the normal game industry, lot of early access games that ends on nothing and nothing happens.

The short answer is that people is tired of empty promises, even if they're not paying for it, and they're allowed to that by the context nowadays, because i'm sure that if this game had reached Steam, TO A REASONABLE PRICE OF COURSE, many people (even myself) would have buyed it to support it.

If I had known this game had that beastly content I wouldn't have played it, but I'm still here for Marta lmao

I wouldn't call this a young game anymore, it's 7 years old already (3rd of February is the "birthday" for the game on this site), I can't imagine that many games make it this long. The majority tend to fizzle out and die much sooner but somehow this game has managed to chug along, despite the primary and most valid criticism being repeated time and time again, seemingly with increasing severity.

I can understand that people are tired of empty promises, believe me out of all the people here I must've been exposed to the most simply because I stuck it out for so long, there are many active users from the past that I used to see a lot of that are gone now. I remember years ago, after Doc started to have a lot of delays, although they were short compared to now, a lot of people were very agitated and angry with the delays, some people tried to defend Doc in some way or tried to mediate things and smooth things over a bit, and they were generally insulted for it. Even I got some of this but probably not as much as I wasn't as proactive in the process and tended to stick to easy to make and reasonable arguments, such as the scandal with reworks from the past.

But as I said before, this is a hentai game with incest and bestiality, and we're on a pirate site for those types of games, and worse. The only people that should really give a shit are those that put money into it, as they'd likely have a feeling of being robbed or scammed. However, everyone else needs to relax, this game will add zero value to your life. Becoming some sort of toxic fanboy for a porn game with a dev that is obviously milking his cultists for money is one of the most degrading and pitiful things anyone can do. I can't imagine how many grown men are here with the desire to see a cartoon dog have sex with a cartoon woman who later has sex with her brother is meant to draw out such intense emotion that we can literally look back through ~1000 pages and most of it is people shit talking. Like Jesus Christ people, find God and prostrate to the lord, get your priorities in order.

I find myself sharing your estimation on when he'll deliver the update honestly, and IF he even delivers such thing

Part of me feels like it might happen and part of me feels like it might not, whatever happens I don't really care. If the update comes out I might not even jump directly into it as soon as I can and wait a bit. I often do this with games that I play, I'll watch the game, let it update multiple times by ignoring it for a year or more and then return to it and play multiple updates of content at once, and then repeat. Only for select games do I play most of the updates as they come out, but not always even then.

For this game, if the update comes out I might just leave it for a bit and see if any patches are released to fix bugs, or I might get into it a bit and update the guide for the first time since Nov 21, 2021 (that's right over 3 years with no guide update), problem is that updating the guide for such a large content drop will be annoying, I'll also have to make sure what I have now is up to some level of standard/preparation for the upcoming update.

If I had known this game had that beastly content I wouldn't have played it, but I'm still here for Marta lmao

You have no idea how much absolute garbage I watch because one of the women had large tits haha
I have a complete disregard for tags, NTR, interracial cucking, all the other types of garbage, I watch the game if she's curvy, that is my primary standard. I watched this game because I saw Martha, I literally go Martha > Vera > Lucille > Mia based on breast size alone I don't give a damn about the story whatsoever. I 100% apply this to women in real life. I'm tall fuck them, they ignore manlets so I ignore a-cups. I want enough titty in my mouth that her nipple wrestles my uvula. I refuse all games where the women are built like sticks.

And with that, I'm requesting to temporarily join the Bones haters' council, as he's muted me from his Discord (with good reason).

So, I pledge to badmouth Bones until he's reinstated on his Discord. Let me begin: Did you know he only showers on odd-numbered days?

New Teaser:

Spoiler: THESE ARE ANIMATED BUT I JUST TOOK A SCREENSHOT

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

It's pixel art thats meant to be added to the game if the Discord stream comments are accurate, I dipped into a stream and watched it for about 20min when he was making one of these. I'm assuming its meant to be used as some sort of marker of progress, such as for the journal, or maybe placed into the gallery, it could also be "Spend Day With..." animations that play when you use the feature.
