IIRC he claimed he didnt accept because he doesnt want those gachas and stuff in his game? Though oddly those very same thing are in the "game" now.
Looking back through the thread and old Patreon posts he originally said he made the game online only as part of an investment deal with some big Japanese game publisher who offered him a mocap studio in Japan.

Would someone be kind enough to tell me how to get this to run, please? I've extracted and run the game, as per the Installation instructions on the OP, but it keeps opening Steam. So I tried downloading that, then copy/pasted all the stuff from the 0.4.9 stuff into the folder that Steam installed its demo version, and it still just opens to the game's listing on Steam.

I have no idea why running this game is so hard for some people. Download it, extract it, run KiritoMod049.exe, that's it.

F95 seems to have become a gateway site to the wider internet for a lot of users, so you've got a bunch of newbies who have only just left facebook/youtube and are now venturing out into the scary world of 'torrenting' and 'extracting a zip file'. Using lingo like 'OP' might translate to 'Original Post' to me and you, but a lot of people are going to be baffled by it.

Double so when they're ESL and the language used in install instructions isn't their strongest.

Looks like PH beginning to seed the idea of abandoning his second project! Can't handle the financials and the stress of the game because he opted to pay for Denuvo and his team of "30" employees (mostly translators and "community managers"), leaving little to no money for himself (as he himself claims).

He honestly seemed to be doing fine on Patreon before he pivoted to transforming his scene viewer into a permanently online gacha porn game. The delays brought on by his own stupidity only cost him Patreon subscribers. He could have kept releasing Gallery stuff, growing his Patreon base, while developing his single player NSFW Game, and it would have been a massive financial success on Steam.
If he decided to terminate this game and move on to create a new gacha game, considered his fate is sealed like that Mirror 2 game where the old reputation of scamming people caught up to new game and got exposed hard and got the game removed from Steam and the company officially bankrupt and people keep stepping on them for eternity.

But the customers don't even know his face, the head honcho can just rebrand himself and go on to his next project. He just needs to drop the name Helius. New Alias, new life.
It ain't right, but it is what it is.

There's not as much money in crowdsourcing non-porn games however, at least not for a mediocre dev, and Helius isn't even a mediocre dev. If he is telling the truth above taking VC money* they will also absolutely roast him if this game flops and/or doesn't launch so he won't be walking off carelessly into the sunset even if the backers never get their money game or the game they paid for.

*big if, I know.

So Helius just posted an image of the "new" pose thumbnails for the upcoming girl. And around half of them are clearly reskins of old animations that somehow disappeared from the game in patch 0.7.0 :poop:

You can happily continue using the cracked 0.4.9, you still won't be missing much.

It's really pathetic, the sad part is that in the Discord the Helius simps are defending this. "Well at least we get the poses added back hurr durr"

In one of the images he forgot to even overwrite Anya. It's like he's barely trying to hide it at this point. Scamlius strikes again!
