VN Ren'Py Abandoned Ecchi Sensei [Day 22-23 Final] [BlueCat]

[Bloodguard]

Not abandoned, the dev is tying to find people to work on it, however he is not wiling to compromise on his "vision" of a radical change of scope for the game and refuses to release what the fanbase actualiy wants from the game (which is a much simpler project that would have taken a few days folowed by more content for what has come before.)

Said vision and work environment has caused his own staff to leave (or said staff got lazy and stopped working, depending on who you believe.) and the creator can't find new peeps to come onboard for very long and is unwilling or incapable of learning coding themselves to finish up the project. the project is on a indefinite hold but the dev has not given up and is in-fact putting in an effort to find staff. and that is the only amount of good faith ill give blue cat about this whole multi year long train wreck of mismanagement, willful lack of transparency and communication. and obstinate misunderstanding of ones own fanbase of the highest observable degree.

Blue Cat has not given up, he is just stubborn, incompetent, and rarely to talk to people who are not paying sycophants.

At this point it's been so long since I have played any content to this game i have forgotten the story or why i found it so charming beyond its sheer breath of kinks and character stereotypes it caters too. and it seemingly impossible to get all the Dark Mind content working for all the differing versions of the game these days. At this point a updated fan made merge with the DM patches may be needed just to preserve the game and all its content before it's lost to time.

Oh, it's definitely abandoned, and BC don't give a rip about working on it. He is just giving lip service to his Patrons to try and keep them on the hook. Its sole purpose was to finance his move to Japan. Once it did that, he was done with it, but he had to come up with a lot of bullshit stories to keep the free money flowing. Wouldn't you?
Good Game ScamCat.

That was the assumed thought for years. Turns out that's not completely the case and is a symptom of the aforementioned refusal to be transparent or communicate with anyone that is not a sycophant.

Abandoned means he has no intention or desire to work on it, on hold means he cant work on it or cant work on it in a way he wants too. look I munch popcorn and laugh to blue cats bs as much as anyone else but even i have been forced to acknowledge that BC WANTS to work on ES he just does not want to do what people want him to do and he does not want to learn the skills to do what he wants to do or use the builds others have made for him to get the merge in the rear view.

Perhaps he also wants to grift money its almost imposable to say he has not intentionally, or unintentionally done so at this point. However I can not say he has no desire or intention to do something with ES, Recent communications say otherwise.

As the great Kain once said. "Hate me, but do it honestly." a quote which has had a profound effect on my life and how I think of those i dislike and why.

If ANY of those things were true (or not, who actually gives a fuck now?), then his altruism would have required AT THE VERY LEAST HE STOP TAKING MONEY.

It has been argued many times by many ppl on this damned, doomed thread, that Patreons do not pay for product or output, but the promise and support of a developing project - but in either scenario, and on any basis you argue for clemency and understanding for him, he FAILS by the simple fact, he has always continued to take payments

Hah! Me arguing for Clemency? For Blue Cat? Get real. The ONLY benefit I am giving that fool is relenting that he has not abandoned the project as people here assert that he has. He has not. His own actions show that, but that doesn't mean i support him or think he is deserving of kindness, mercy, or an ounce of advocacy. nor that he should continue to grift Patrion funding or that it was ever right to pull a Spoony and soak up subs from people who arguably forgot they ever subbed in the first place and use it to subsidies his lifestyle while producing a single additional chapter it almost what 3 maybe 4 years?

As i have said over and over in my last few posts the man is Incompetent, Stubborn and only seeks the company of sycophants, What i DON'T like to do is make wild assertions on intentions and treat it as fact. Happens way to much in society.

Like i said before I want to hate him honestly, for what he has done, not what people assert that he has done. There is plenty of factual ass hattery by Blue Cat to go around.

I disagree with this personally. I think he had abandoned it and has zero intentions on ever finishing it.

What actions has he shown to think his still actually working on it? Words? Words aren't actions, they're just words. The last time he showed something it was a random Day 4 script from what I can remember - hardly proof of anything. He hasn't shown anything since then and I even offered to look over what his done but he also didn't respond to any part of my message after he finally contacted me - not a word.

It's been how many years since he started this merge thing and it still hasn't gotten done? Coders abandoning it or not - BlueCat himself as abandoned the game. I did it in a month, those same "problems" he mentioned about coders having different styles - That didn't stop me and I knew nothing about renpy's coding or anything.

In fact, I merged the game twice, from scratch both times (I didn't have the first merge files anymore and had completely forgotten stuff I did ) but the second time was way better than the first since I changed a lot of shit around to make it more consistent and actually tried fixing the features on the second go around which I didn't do the first time.

Point is, it should be done. There is no logical, sensible reason or excuse a human being could come up with let alone BlueCat to explain why it hasn't gotten done after all these years. I would say prove me wrong, but it's been years - we've all been proven right.

It should be done. It's not. It's never getting done. It's abandoned.

(P.S I still like the game though, obviously)

I whole heartedly appreciate the response to my comment. Truly, I wasn't expecting this. That is indeed sad news. Hopefully, this major setback will open his eyes to the project and the fan base he's built.

 

[Blackdragon0083]

I empathize with your sadness but i would not get my hopes up.

 

[feres]

I remember when this guy did 2 releases a month. He could have made much more money if he didn't get lazy.

It has been probably close to a year since I checked this thread. Is the merge coming out soon?

End of 2020.

If people believe hard enough and give even harder, maybe just maybe the merge will be complete. But only if you give money. If you don't give enough, then it is on you, you have failed the cat.

Fan merge has already happened. It's not perfect but works enough.

 

[Badjourasmix]

No disrespect for the person that did, but it's not really worth playing if the dev is not working on updates for the game.

Oh your comment is full of disrespect for the person who spent their own time and talent to make a merge the dev couldn't; so why don't you stop wasting everyones time with a bloody stupid question 2 minutes of thread reading would have answered

Don't know if you missed the point of my comment on purpose but let me explain it in simpler terms. Since the dev is probably not releasing anymore updates for the game, it is not worth it for me to play it since there won't be a continuation of the story. I think what I meant was pretty obvious, don't really know why you got so butthurt but into the ingore list you go.

Here is to a new year of Bluecats lies and to all you folks. Happy New Year.

Theres a brave debater, makes a negative and offensive comment, then doesn't like the comeback, and blocks me - what a pathetic individual. Well I won't be reciprocating, this forum needs lively debate, not lazy negativity from talentless knobs. Oh, and your "title" - conversation conqueror. More like mass debater

 

[AlterdStates7]

That's... That's not how that works.
