I think what pisses me off more then anything, is that there are so many devs who would kill for the early success that this game had. Devs who deserve it so much more then this person.

Well, success at first he deserved it now he has nothing, I think this dev simply suffered a writer's block
Or maybe decided to do what a few other devs do, milk the patrons with false promises etc, after all he's still bullshitting about the next update, has been for coming up to 3 years next month.

Yeah, sure all devs are evil scammers, in fact they have their own league of villains where they plan how to scam people and laugh when their naive patrons fall for their lies.
Is the game comming back ?cz i want to try it although it's abandoned 3 years ago but there are activity in this thread .

the dev says he wants to release chapter 3 this year but I wouldn't count on it
Been saying that for the last 3 years, so yeah, wouldn't hold your breath, last ditch effort to bring in more cows to milk I guess, since they're running out of subscribers.

Don't think its writers block to many Devs pull this crap. Honestly I think it almost has more issues with scripting or just have a premise in mind and no idea how to do a middle and the end.
Seeing the lot of them also restart the whole thing as well while barely making any story progress. I's just the initial Fantasy but not the rest of it.
But do think if you gonna make a VN, make a story board of sorts plan things ahead. And if there is any community choice to be had focus on locations more than characters. Seeing fan favorites always gets chosen while other characters get ignored.

Also not true, you can have an idea of where you're going and an ending but you gotta leave space in story for ideas you didn't think of yet. You evolve as creator too.
There is no block, or you didn't have any talent in the first place. He clearly did.
The truth is, making a game alone at this quality is tough personally and time-consuming with very little return for a long time, if not forever. Not everyone can endure it, afford it and admit it.

if fucking huge tv shows like the sopranos sometimes had no idea where to go and made fucking things up along the way, what do you think it's like for an amateur dev in their parents' basement? I do believe that the block exists linked to a lack of motivation, this is just a dev with his own mind, not a fucking big table of writers deciding things

Probably should have phrased certain things differently, but like many devs some do seem to coast on their initial success if it does blow up rather popular.
And I know it's Time consuming and lots of devs do Inch forward with updates.
LeFrench and Dogorti.
For the writing block or not could be other factors at play and or life stuff that gets in the way. As for Soprano's I think the writers there do have a general idea what they want to do and or at least have goals in mind even if it's not sure how or why yet.
But there you also have a room full of writers that can bounce idea's of each other.
And Sitcoms can be way more random with their stories writing wise.
And I get that there is possible pressure as well from the creator and how to satisfy your paying customers with updates.
Also I can imagine things can get sour due to negative backlash.
I do understand that high production values also takes time but he's decided to do so at the beginning but do think he eventually took it for granted.

I don't think he had a coding issue. He made little mini games with this drawing stuff... Perhaps he is scamming after his initial success or he had other real work to do who knows, who cares... If there are still people who believe that developers release an update after three years let them be that stupid and let them throw their money away. In the beginning I supported Darksilver but after a few months I noticed the shift in his development cycle and cut the support because he couldn't deliver. He cancelled his Big Brother project a few months later... But that's the problem with those projects...
