This has already been discussed in my previous post, please read it.
And it had been discussed repeatedly before that post. IIRC someone eventually petitioned the moderators and they agreed with something like what you suggested, only after 18 months instead of 12. Which puts the deadline at next month, but if they're strict about it it won't be until the end of the month:

Release Date: 2020-10-31

I don't think this thread has any new ground to cover. The dead horse has been beaten into a paste thinner than graphene by this point. :ROFLMAO:

Going by BC's waffling about whether or not to use MTL, I highly doubt he's going to make the deadline even if it is the end of next month, though I'm willing to be pleasantly surprised as long as it's new content and not some piddly BS update.

So this has quietly died and it took me over a year to notice?
Damn.
Maybe. The dev team are clearly a bunch of bumbling idiots who when given a choice always seem to make the wrong one, but this thread are largely speculating how dire the situation is, so can't be trusted for facts either.

The best thing we can do is focus on other things, and let this sort itself out or not in it's own time.

Basically everyone should start another playthrough of Elden Ring. That'll keep you all busy for a while.

It's not dead. But it's not alive.

I guess you could say it is undead. :cool:
Schrodinger's Blue Cat

It's dead and alive until someone open the box... I mean, until someone of the team say they're just doing anything but work in the game or they admit that they're stuck and make time with the post on patreon and try don't lose money and followers.

I feel it's more like the game theory's paradox of the 'Prisoner's dilemna', with Latecomer and Bluecat being the participants. Or maybe it's more akin to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle where neither the direction of the game's development nor its present state of progress can possibly be measured with any precision. Or it's a zombie.

We're coming to the end of March, and there's dead silence. We don't even have skummy to come here anymore to call us trolls and say something delusional about progress being made

Someone should remake this game, seeing as the current developers have left it anyway. The only thing that's still alive is the money they make on patreon. The rest is abandoned

Game will be updated sometime in April, my guess is mid April. I don't have anything clearer than that but if he doesn't deliver on that, I'd say that was his last chance even with me, and this game will be marked abandoned and officially dead pretty much. Granted, I'm a bit more optimistic, so yeah believe me or don't I really don't care at this point.

and yeah I've been busy with my actual life for the better part of a week, meh.

Oh that's good news! Finally someone listened to our prayers and took action. Obviously i'm not referring only to Ecchi Sensei: many other games are in the same situation and they probably will get the abandoned tag now.

You say that, but this is by far the most active Thread I watch, which is very sad considering the state of the game.
I know, right? I am the same. I really don't know why. Probably something wrong with me, haha. This game is fun to play and all, but there are many, many, much better games out there, where the dev is actually working on the game: Artemis, Chasing Sunsets, Eternum, Leap of Faith, My New Memories, One Day at a Time, Pale Carnations, Ripples, Single Again, College Bound, and of course Where the Heart Is. I could go on and on. Harem Hotel, for a similar themed Honey Select type game, is light years ahead of Ecchi Sensei in story, dialog, and gameplay, and doesn't have many dozens of mostly forgettable characters that all talk and act alike.

I think I started out paying attention to this thread because it was so appalling how Bluecat was just gaslighting everyone, completely halting work on the game, being almost completely silent to all his fans, while still collecting monthly donations. Since ES has no renders, posing is very quick, so he didn't have the standard excuse most devs have, which is the legitimate requirement for hundreds of hours of rendering time and the need for a decent PC. That was a year ago. It just gets worse and worse each month.
