My bad. You re right, there's no mod. Obviously I'd said it off the top of my head. But usually mods causing problems if saves don't work. If you need a last save file of V0.4, I can share it with you so you can play last update.What mod are you talking about? I didn't see any mod in op?
The dev deflects a lot. His attitude and gaslighting is making me think he's actually milking. His reasoning shouldn't be hard for him to explain if he has nothing to hide.I don’t know why my words aren’t being seen as a whole picture of what I actually said, but rather interpreted as whatever someone wants to see in them — but fine. I’ll try to explain what I already explained.
I didn’t speak on behalf of thousands of people. I referred to a few individuals who leaked the version, which led to thousands of others downloading it instead of waiting for the free release or subscribing to the Patreon. The number of people interested in the game is based on the download stats from Pixeldrain.
As for character development — yes, that’s great — but every scene is primarily a render. For every 5-minute scene with characters, the developer might spend dozens of hours. My worst nightmare for this game would be if the developer adds even more characters just for additional scenes. More characters == Less time to properly develop each of them
Do you even realize that for independent developers, this “pirate forum” is actually a traffic platform? Do you understand that the dev himself posts announcements about new releases not because he has nothing better to do, but to attract new patrons and monetize the game? This place provides stable and high traffic, with links to all of the developer’s resources, where he has a verified profile and where he himself uploaded early versions of the game. The conversion rate may not be huge, but it’s his own choices that influence whether someone who paid for the game ends up feeling so disappointed they leak it for free without getting anything in return.
Most people didn’t pay for the game — but they gave it advertising, feedback, community, and reviews.
Besides, this isn’t Lona RPG with a mandatory agreement you have to accept just to enter the game. The Fate Won’t Separate Us isn’t a trademarked product or a commercial release. The only thing being “sold” here is the developer’s time, and it's worth exactly as much as Patreon brings in. Even then, the developer isn’t obligated to finish the game, and users who pay don’t get to make decisions for the dev. I’m entitled to say and write whatever I want, as long as it doesn’t break the forum rules.
I don't plan to answer anyone here for a long time. Some people are tiring here, unfortunately.
You can contact me on discord or patreon if you have a question.
But first, I need to address a few issues. Lend me your ears, dear Romans.

This is the second AI generated review. Seriously, they are incapable of even using AI.
This nullvector guy plagiarized from this review. I would like to draw your attention to the marked sentences.:

I will never understand their motivation for doing this. Such a pathetic act. They just make themselves insulted. Maybe their motivation is that they want to be humiliated. No kinkshaming.
------------------------------------------------------
Side characters and fuckfest: All the fuckfest parts currently belong to the side characters. They are purely optional scenes that do nothing for the main story. At least I somehow narrate the story to you, even if you skip these scenes. For example, if you don't watch the scene with Daniella and the yoga teacher, you won't lose anything because the conversation between Jeremiah and Daniella has the same idea in both scenes.
At the beginning of every optional scene, without exception, the player is given a choice as to whether they want to see it or not.
None of Freya's scenes are paidwalled and I don't plan to do so in the future.
And the scenes of these side characters take up more or less 20% of the game. So any criticism that mentions “Oh no, the main focus has shifted to the side characters. Freya has no content at all.” is ludicrous and unrealistic. And I would also like to remind you that this is the story of Jeremiah.
"Freya doesn't have enough content": Actually she has a lot. Almost 80% of the game is Freya. This is not hard to see unless you consider anything except actual penetration as content.
From the very beginning this story is about the mysterious past of the girlfriend, her hesitation to come out of her shell, the insecurity and paranoia of the MC. David Lynch did not write this story. It has a very clear and simple idea.
One of the aims of this VN is to give you a feeling of jealousy and betrayal (for cheating path). I try to give you this feeling with all kinds of situations, sexual or non-sexual (whether I succeed or not is another matter). If you are unable to feel the feeling of betrayal without actual penetration, this VN is not for you. I am sorry for that.
I think everyone here understands me except those with a logic deficiency.
----------------------------------------------------------------
"There is no romantic relationship between Freya and Jeremiah": I've seen it in a lot of reviews, although I'm really pushing for chemistry between them. I would like to see different people's feedback on this, positive or negative. Because one of the most important things for me is the relationship between them.
I also have the suspicion that it is copy/paste again. Nevertheless, I cannot slander someone about something I am not sure about, as others here have done before.
----------------------------------------------------------------
"When is the new patch coming out?": I wish I could know... I've always avoided giving estimated release dates.
Cuckold and revenge path will be developed in the next patch.
You're not wrong, mostly, but we all know Freya getting absolutely BTFO'd by every cock available, be it MC at home toward the end of the Happy route or every black guy at that party in the next update to the cuck route, is gonna be the total payoff of each route, or every arc if the total story is long enough to have them.Guess you're right on the Freya 80% thing, did not properly convey that part. My big gripe with this is that Freya and the black guy's development together(sex) being prolonged unnecessary while the other girl's sexual content is miles further, like for example Freya and the black guy's last scene together is her practically begging to get some action and a very unnatural masochism play that came out of left field to avoid going to the sex scene for the next update or the next update after that, like I notice a pattern here, when we're so close something unexpected happens or scenes are hinted to be something juicy, but end up being a lot less juicier than logically expected. this game's sexual scenes for Freya develop in such an obviously bare minimum way that it's frustrating, a very short blowjob is the farthest she went.
It's milking to me, and it hurts because you are very talented dev and don't need to use these tactics at all. Your talent is more than enough and your talent is a natural money maker.
That wasn't even the point nor does it reference that, for the content we've got.. We haven't made much progress in the corruption of freya, and it's always purposefully unrealistically, and unnaturally being prolonged with the bare minimum and to make matters worse the Dev launches so many emotional and gaslighty arguments when receiving that type of criticism. At this rate it's expected to get more than a blowjob.I admit that I like the game. The author seems to me amply capable of creating empathy. So why reduce everything to the usual and trivial black cock? Do you remember Gascoigne? Very talented footballer but alcoholic and never became the champion he could have been. Here this author and this story remind me of Gascoigne
