oh I know, Read that before posting, does not change my statement, there is no excuse for why we are here in the first place. and shitting out a stitched together week just to stave off an abandoned tag is not going to change that now will it mean that he wont make a new update just as content filled after another year and half. its gong to require them to show actual progress moving forward before they ever begin to earn back trust.
Dont forget the shortcuts...vacations, sickness, boring days without any significance happening, ...you could very easy do a whole year with 4 months of content...and dont forget, that merge mythos intended to add most of the holyday standalones...i mean, it must be a strange month fo fit easter, christmas, halloween, ...even multiple of them...so you could say based in this plan the month1 merge would have meant to strech over a year to fit all the standalones in...based on this way of thinking it wouldnt make sense to make new content because the finished month would turn into the promised year without much need of additional content ^^22 days is not a month, it's not even the shortest month.
I don't really wanna say this but from reading history in Discord server the delusional levels are really sad. I do want the game to continue but be objective and a realist, because it's what we have is the reality of undisclosed reason for the delay... while on the same time vague, empty whispers of seductive continuation from a Blue creature constantly keeps happening, that for some reason people on discord continue to add honorific -Sama-
I'm a sad, dead inside fuck, that died over 20 years ago... so don't take what I say personally but honestly think for a moment. It's understandable that some delays are bound to happen when there are changes to the staff but this delay is beyond ridiculous levels. Still at the same time I do hope it's just really unfortunate stack of bad luck, otherwise
Anyway I'm putting the thread in the ignore category.
Have fun and take care or not. In the end it's up to you
and still not a single fuck was given
Of the people that have played the alpha/beta and tried to interact here I think most have been shouted down as a BlueCat fanboy so most just dont interact here anymore. I will say I am testing the beta and it does require work. a lot of the machine translations seem to have gone a bit screwy. a hallway for example got called a crawlspace and some sections just appear to be the original German. So I cant say how long before any official version is released. However the beta has been extended to T4 ($15) Patrons so you might get lucky over the next few days.
I have no idea how it would even make sense in German if I translate it literally. If it was a normal hallway then what comes to mind in German are "Flur", "Gang" and "Korridor", but none of them come even close to the translation of "crawlspace". Context might be missing or the translation could have been messed up when it might have been a play of words / wordgame. It could also have been a message that could be understood in one language but not another. Though like I said, it doesn't make any sense to me, at least without context.
Why would people facepalm your post tho. Only reason I can think of is if you're spreading disinformation to troll or something.
So basically what your saying is that BlueCat cobbled some broken shit together just to say he did an update.
Guess we know what the A and B in Alpha and Beta stand for. Absolutely Broken. Wonder what the F in Final means. Maybe Fail?
The F95 rule deals only with the looks of characters, they don't really care about the patch which is why the patch is linked to directly here. The only reason for the patch is patreon's tos. If it wasn't for that most games likely wouldn't even bother with a patch. It's not here yet because it just hasn't been leaked yet but I'm sure it's only a matter of time. Personally though, given the bit I've heard about the beta so far I'm more than happy to wait a bit longer for some fixes to be made. There's actually an event I've been waiting for that IIRC is supposed to be in these days and I'd rather wait so there aren't weird translations on the one thing I've been waiting for.
Unless something has changed this is incorrect. In the past direct links to the patch weren't allowed, nor were links to any pre-patched version of the game.
I never said it was completed broken. all the issues are to do with the translation's which is normal when you have thousands of lines of dialogue in a none native tongue. its completely playable as most people can work out the intended words in most screens. As i said in my closing comments is the bigger issue is the DM patch is preloaded meaning even when leaked F95 may not post it.
Won't be in issue since BlueCat will have to release it on Patreon anyway so the DM will have to be removed for that. Having it all in for beta is probably just easier than separating it out, but the process of taking it out isn't much work, even less if they've improved how they do it if they've heard my suggestions from when I was looking at the code a while back.
My guess would be that was from overzealous mods (which I know there were issues with some mods concerning that rule in the past). If you actually read the rule and all the clarifications there's nothing about age, only looks. There's been a fair bit of staff change over since then and they seem to be at least somewhat more accepting of this type of content now.
Full game would mean the entire 365 day plan, and that wouldn't be even close to done even if he'd kept the old speedy update schedule.
oh bluecats never going to finish this game, and i dont mean that from an insulting point of view i mean from a logistical point of view, if he were to do 1 day a week (4 days a month or 52 days a year) with a main team of 4 working on nothing but the renders, coding and writing none of the extra feature stuff just releasing an update a week and a secondary team of 3 merging all the days together as their finished and adding all the extra features in along with enough money and the right hard working individuals to do that it would still take him 7 years to finish this game and since he's doing none of that, working incredibly slow has a small team and allegedly no money to pay or (according to skcummy regarding the translators) unwilling to spend the money to pay for all that and working on a 2 day a month schedule i don't see him finishing this game being a possible outcome and like somebody said here on an earlier post will either abandon it or decrease it to 6 months
It was me. I said that and some Bluecat fanboy told me I was being a hater and needed to shut up.
Everything you said here is 100% true. However, it really doesn't work like that, where another dev could just step in. There are a few examples where the dev of a VN either dies or gives up and passed his game to someone else, and it never works. The new person is just never as invested in the original game to do much with it. Look at Lexi or Oath of Loyalty as an example. I can't think of a single case where the primary dev (or pretend dev in Bluecat's case), gave his game to someone else and it continued without being quickly abandoned.
