dude... Why the 3 text-based games that I like are in a shitshow state?
Lilith's Throne takes ages for any new content but when that "new content" comes out it's like 5-10 minutes worth of read or look at this new area with lots of placeholders and nothing to do (yeah I know Inno works basically "alone", but really, 1-2 months of wait for what?), LT is a time bomb until the game can't suffer anymore from performance because of the old java version being used, I can see this game being abandoned at some point because either of burnout from Inno or because the game is a bloated mess of spaghetti code.
TiTS got an HTML/EXE version and so I was able to finally revisit it after years and they managed to fuck that version too, every release is meaningless and they always manage to break more stuff with each release (and the new UI is a fucking nightmare), the game story is still in the same place since the last time I played it (the flash version back in 2017-2018), idk what exactly they have been "adding" to the game in the past years. (I could be wrong about this last part but from what I played again, yeah, still on the same place)
And then CoC 2, each release just mid to worse: the story gets shitter every new release, new random NPC that I don't care, new random scene for a random NPC that I will read once and get bored and forget about it completely, the corruption level is just a number that's goes up and down for me (really, what exactly that does to your character other than transform you into a semi-demon or whatever?), I said that before but F MC or M MC content is piss-poor balanced (one has way more things to see than the other), the combat is just a dump of text in my face that I just skip (TiTS has a more engaging combat, even LT for that matter), I was really hoping for modders to save this game because the devs can't get their shit together but of course they need to ruin that part too. (not open sourcing the game and planning to put a fucking DRM in this game, like really?... fuck off)
I know 50% of this post have nothing to do with CoC but I think you can get my point. In the end, I just wanted a good text-based game. (I'm open to suggestions I guess)
