If you read between the lines, that is basically what they are saying.

okay but if im a new player or someone who doesn't really pay that much attention to this and i wanna know whats going on and all im seeing is ppl saying that the game is being delayed for a translator that can apparently be replaced and the dev (or the devs prs) response is not that strong or not very explanatory and the whole point of the last 10-20 pages have been to stop misinformation wouldn't be better to just say that instead of having to play the read between the lines game? because i feel like we could've avioded both this and about 400 other conversations that have happened in the last week if they just said that in the first place
Okay here is the official statement, and I'm sorry if I am not exactly professional, still getting used to what I've chosen to take on. I am not usually this confrontational but I am a bit defensive. However, I will endeavor to act more polite here on in the future. That being said, I stand firm and will continuously work to keep things up to date, and correctly reported on. Lets get on with it!
A very important member of the dev team is currently sick, they are not able to perform their normal functions, work will resume when they can. There is no timeline for this, nor will there be, this team member will simply return to work when able, you will be updated when this is the case I assure you. The team does not feel comfortable moving forward with someone to replace their role, as they are deemed indispensable by the developer, and as such we are currently delayed in progress for the time being. Some minor work is still being done, and progress will continue to move in one way or another so as not to waste the idle time, namely ensuring new update work that can be done ahead of time is being taken care of now so as to have it prepared for after the Merge.
The Dev Team wants this out as badly as you do, they're sick of dealing with it, but the situation is what it is.
Please be patient, wait it out with all of us, and lets try to talk about something else. It would be much appreciated and would give me far less headaches, as I work out the growing pains of what I have chosen to do. To ensure that at least on this site, this game doesn't get bogged down in game delay blues. If you all could participate and get healthy distraction conversations underway? That'd be greeeeat.
Rehashing my last question because I liked my poem and I wanna get more answers:
Tits, Ass, Legs, or Eyes!
Is it up above or between the thighs?
What would you say will turn you on?
Is it her busty chest, or that lacy thong?
Come one and all, tell us now!
What makes you want to plow?
Don't be shy, be unabashed!
Unless you say not the ass
So if you couldn't tell through my of so creative word play, today's question is relatively simple as it relates to the ES girls. What of these features do you most love to look for and what makes you have the hots for these ladies, personality aside.
Additional Question!
Be able to undo the mind control Crazy Nurse has been using?
or
Be able to reverse aging in all the females in the game?

...and this sick person will be happy to find the pile of work as soon as she feels better?
There is also no replacement needet, just some (temporary) help...shouldnt be so hard to find some english speaking people in an english board filled with devs, proofreader, coder and artists who would work for free/low price to get the game faster. Almost every buisness hires part timers id they are short on people.
For the additional questions...undo? No. Redirect...i'm in charge, not the crazy nurse ^^
And yes, absolutely yes.

English translation is done, and since there's no new content there's nothing to trnaslate as well. Dev doesn't post any updates, dev has been in silence for months and returned for 1 day just to post an undersatifactory status update. Look up patreon page, people has been paying for months for nothing, not a single roadmap not status updates no nothing. I entered the discord server as well, now I don't know about posting stuff in patreon but sending a simple messege in discord is easy. He doesn't do this as well. las tdiscord status update is the same as the patreon one.
I stated this many times by now, i am an IT engineer, there's no logical explanation for a "merge" update to take this long and the lack of updates proves it. They either don't work at all. or just lazy and don't want to share updates because then we'll know how slow they're working or not working at all. Why merge can't take this long? well, All the CG's are ready, all the text are ready, all the event map is ready, all that needs to be done is to hire a good coder or ren'py developer and make him work on it.
There's no need for a "team" for a merge update. let's say you have a team that consists of "Coder, CG artist, Writer, Translators, proof checkers, debuggers, etc etc" as I said now, most of this stuff are already there, all needs to be done is just to use these assets to create the game. it can't take longer than a few months, 1-2 months.
If you're a patron, My advise is to stop paying until we got the update. Now, you're free to do whatever you want with your money. but I am giving you advice here, this guy is lazying around. not working at all. any you're paying it. What's that "core member is sick" BS? who's sick?? and what do you mean by core member??? the only member that could stop or delay this merge update is the coder guys, and they're easily replaceble. they're not creating CG's or story so you don't have to work with the same guy at all times.
Put yourself into dev's pants, if you have a 5k$ paying community, would you make them wait and lose potential patrons just because 1 of your team members is sick? none of this makes sense...... And the only person to slow or delay is coders. if CG guy is sick, that shouldn't affect the progress since all the CG's are there already. and if translators sick........ you can just publish the game in english and release a patch for the said language later on. instead of y'know makin a whole community and patrons wait.

I don't generally comment about delays , because I understand shit happens in real life .But you want people to not talk about what they want to (delays) .This is not blue cat discord this is F95 you can't dictate what people say .they are not breaking any rules .Okay here is the official statement, and I'm sorry if I am not exactly professional, still getting used to what I've chosen to take on.

It's has been like what 7 or 8 months since last update . people are bound to get curious about what's happening . Distraction only works to a certain time.
Let's talk about merging for me personally I don't care if the game has separate weeks or months . Merging should be an under the hood work , should be done with out effecting the whole project . Game was stopped for months during 1 week merge .and it happened again in month 1 only longer this time.
actually that is incorrect the week 1 took 6 months to update this has only taken 3 and a half

I don't mind the delays, I just wish they'd bring back the weekly status reports so we weren't left in the dark, it's been over a month since we've heard anything and we don't know what's going on

BC is and has been working on future updates as in week4 and has completed many of if not most renders for if not 2 , 3 updates after merge. So the answer still is the game is being worked on and is not on hold.

The first month one status report was in August 2020 and the release of the end of Week 3 was in June 2020. The Halloween update doesn't count as it's really just fluff.

I am so down for reverse aging but for all??? Are we talking Dark Mind where my fever dream reads 18 as something else and still de-aging?
NOTE: My fever dream is my own affliction and in no way reflects on the dev or this game

If someone at work was the only one in the entire department that could do that one specific job for months, that would effectively mean that the department would behind in work load for months. So then if that person were to return they would have a piled up workload since no one else could do it. That workload would always be behind no matter what, this whole thing doesn't make sense.
I'm glad to see someone else has learned to love the booty, and as for full reverse aging I'm talking being able to either keep them at current age, or spin it back if you prefer, perhaps you want young Hiroko back, well then you've got it! the power of time and space at your fingertips!

I like big boobs as much as the next guy, but it's the overall package that needs to work for me. If I have to pin it down to one part then I'd say that a cute face does more for me than any other individual aspect.
For the bonus question: Fuck the nurse! I understand that the MC being an immoral bastard is kind of the premise of this game, the non-consensual stuff is definitely a bit of a turn-off for me though...

People don't tend run big business and small the same way. During the pandemic, a local pizza restaurant has been take out only, even when they could seat people, the space was so limited that it wasn't worth it. Despite that, they shut down completely for 3 weeks after a family member became ill. They have a staff that makes the pizza and runs the place and could have continued to do so, but chose not to because the person that was ill was part of the family that owns and runs the restaurant. It does not make economic sense and a heartless corporation would never run that way but it makes sense to the family that runs the restaurant.
Blue started this on his own but expanded to a team of trusted people. If Blue wants to wait until a team member is well enough to continue, that is his decision. If you are a patron, it is your call whether to support him financially or not. No matter what, all the complaining and second guessing here does absolutely nothing.
Exactly this. I have been trying to say this in many different ways but that's the moral of the story here.
Ok, you all know what a dub is, right?
Imagine this,
You have a dubbed Bruce Willis flic but it has a catch,
the voice actor fell ill and they replaced him with some other dude that has experience
with action movies....now comes your scene:
Bruce is cowering on the rim of the snowy runway, lighting the kerosene puddle in front of him
with his lighter and yelling with an austrian accent:
"Hasta la vista, baby!"
sounds wrong?
yeah, it does.
So you say put it out without the translation, just like it is now....
Lucky for me but too bad for most people here. you know why?
Blue writes in his native language which isn't english.
So for mister "Why not give them american names" (Sorry for pulling you into this.)
to understand the story, to get the different characters and foremost to transpond
Blues whitty german tongue so you guys get the joke behind it this one person is
crucial. He is the voice you english version player know and it would be hard
to do the same as a fill in, just because this fill in would never ever be Bruce Willis'
"Yippy ka yay, motherfucker".
@Skummy
Don't take it too hard ma man, there are people here that really appreciate what you are doing here.
Keep your cools.
Same goes for Blue and his team.
BTW i liked your little poem Skummy
as an answer i can only say "it depends"
I even think that Hirokos Trollface looks cute.
Tinyer girls like Mika or Himiko can be sexy but also toned girls like Rikka or Mao.
variety is king. But there is one girl i really can't wait to get my hands on and
I did mention her before. It's that white haired witch Masae, she really ticks all my boxes.
To your previous polls:
Powers are not to be shared...only the foxgods know what will happen when they get in the wrong hands(aka Crazy Nurse).
But which powers should he have...
A little bit of mind bending couldn' hurt too much, debitching Tomoes bratty sister, a little on Tomoe so we can screw her Mom
with her absolut consent and stopping mamabear from creeping around.
Skummys aging...or antiaging power sounds pretty kinky to me.....sorry "ecchi"
Yeah, and of course that drug repelling power could be pretty helpful. (thanks for that idea mate)
Tsundere Harem or Yandere Himiko:
If these are the only options and I must chose between them I'd go for the Harem of tsundere girls,
all tsundres have a heart of gold and just act rough on the outside.
If you ever watches the Yuno Gasei compilation of her 250ish "Yuki"s you maybe understand why yandere
can be quite scary....no, never going to happen!
One last word,
why do you think so many devs where affected by the passing of chatterbox and palmer?
why do you think so many scenes or characters of other VNs suddenly appear in another devs story?
These guys are a close community, better, a family in where every member counts.
The analogy with that small family Pizzy retaurant was quite fitting, thanks for that.
If you have too much time on your hand and want it gone, try to get a 3080 or 3090 for msrp.
otherwise, stay ecchi and healthy

OK so if we can hold some youngins at age NSFW but make the oldies young again I would 100% be on board with that. FlashBack girls were cute and I would totally bone FB Hiroko over current, that's just me.
Yeh, the choices are to force you into hard critical thought prospects, it invigorates the mind rather than giving bland options. Instead of being given a simple prompt, something that forces brain power to answer tends to be that much more rewarding. I may not have anything to sell but I am a writer, so I feel the best tools for passing the time are engaging the brain in challenges.
I do not currently have anything new as I just worked a twelve hour day and am very tired, I thank the words of Dirk, quite helpful and yes I'm aware to just chill out. I take this role to spare Bluecat from having to do it, being a good buffer with a much better grasp of the english language and all that. That and while I can become incensed in the moment, I do understand at the end of the day its a lot of frustrated people who aren't feeling that they are being treated seriously or being given serious answers.
From their perspective, I'm playing the smoke and mirrors game, the excuse wagon, trying to trip them up on a bunch of reasons that make no fucking sense from their mindset. I do get it, which is why I just decided to shift back to engaging those who are being more patient, and wanting to play the distraction game. That being said here's a quick prompt before I go to bed for the night as I'm tired as hell:
Randomly have ten girls that will be forever off limits, but have a consequence free journey the rest of the way so you can go balls to the wall nuts on the rest with no repercussions even if you're flaunting it.
OR
Have the threat of being caught/exposed by independent watchdogs constantly lurking over your shoulder, however all girls remain on the table, it just became far more difficult to do anything anymore without a lot of plotting ahead of time to outsmart people.
Stay Healthy, Stay Ecchi
SKUMMY OUT!

This, without a shadow of doubt. I'm fine with playing a morally reprehensible/rapey character, but I feel this method robs the situation of any agency.
Probably give up 10 random girls. Even if all my favourites get taken, there's still a lot of winners in there.Randomly have ten girls that will be forever off limits, but have a consequence free journey the rest of the way so you can go balls to the wall nuts on the rest with no repercussions even if you're flaunting it.

This is only applying to real world logic though, where consequences are permanent. In game, I'll take option 2 and just save scum
