It essentially just too absurdly long to come out for how lacking the content was. As in, Crush made no less than 5 patreon posts saying "It's almost ready..." and "I just need to make it a little bit sexier...", only for the update to come out and have some clearly poorly written moments, as well as very little actual sex.
HTML Female Agent [v1.20.1p] [Crushstation]
Does anyone have the offline 1.11 patreon standalone version? o: Not sure why it was removed from the OP
I used to be subbedto the patreon for this game - stupid mistake on my part, basically he kept telling us on patreon and on discord for like 5 straight months "it's almost done, I'm so close, I just need to make this hotter and get it just right!" and then the actual update comes out, and it's one awful blow job scene where she has a panic attack, freaks out, throws up, and thinks about quitting her job at the cia... even though in the previous updates she let's a dude rape her, let's a a bunch of other dudes creampie her multiple times, blows a guy for drugs, etc., it felt so overly dramatic and didn't fit at all and, justifiably, we got really frustrated in the discord. He and the artist and discord mods spent days apologizing but, it was honestly pathetic and a bunch of longtime subs like myself bailed.

Yep. This is usually happening when you don't know how to progress you story. There aren't any complete plan with a straight sequence of events: everething is vague
Because of that it's not possible to implement any decision tree like classic RPG has, there are no choises at all.
You can't plan anything because you don't know what will happen in the future
The lack of such plan means that it's impossible to plan at all - you just don't know which pass to choose and because of that the development process intself is so slow and the last big update is so controversial
This is the reason why some people call it scam - the development doesn't have straight plan, the dev doesn't have milstones and you may pay for such develoment forever

Similar journey for me a couple years earlier. Such a shame.
I guess I'm still - sometimes - getting sucked back into the new updates...

And yet there are - obviously - still enough who keep supporting him despite the objectively slow progress and as of late inferior story telling. Usually I admire and appreciate supporters but in this case I blame them for letting Crush continue this miserable charade. Stop the support and show him that he can't continue like this! There needs to be progress, REAL progress. No more new fabulous features (which noone ever notices anyway), no more rework "improvements", no more bullshit! Just plain and simple progress! Significantly faster and with way more substance. And THEN the support may continue...

Yeah, sure. Cry babies. Toxic fanbase! Rascists and misogynists!
Hmm. Where did I hear that before?
Probably in a dozen other threads for long-ongoing games on this forum. But it's not exactly unwarranted observation, even if people who complain no doubt feel fully justified in doing so.Yeah, sure. Cry babies. Toxic fanbase! Rascists and misogynists!

This game have potentiel, but why it's so slow ?
Money more than likely. But if we were to assume the creator was being malicious, then constant creative directional changes is also a factor.
I think you are right about the constant creative changes. He is a perfectionist but lacks the skill to make it right, so then he throws away what he previously did but makes it worse.
Look at the avatar system. It was REALLY good, but said it was to time consuming to make new clothing. So he rebooted it, and made it worse. He could have... just stopped making new clothing or just done less of it. Nope lost 6 months to a year rebooting something that didn't need to be changed.
I don't think he is a scammer. He just is a horrible manager and makes poor decisions on what to spend his time on. He is trying, but always misidentifies the problem. People complain about episodes take to long to come out, so he released one quickly but now it's to short. His productivity is the problem, which could be supplemented with hiring employees to help... but he doesn't want to do that.
People just need to accept that this is a linear corruption game that has updates that are really slow. Probably best to not support him until Crush changes, which is not likely...
Is the writing being assisted/augmented/generated using ChatGPT now? Nobody uses the word "derriere" except ChatGPT in porn mode, as it comes up with any euphemism possible to avoid using lewd language, unless specifically instructed to do so with a word that is also a euphemism.
I'm neither for, nor against the use of ChatGPT, but a good writer is still better than ChatGPT at this point.

Crush is a lot of things, but he doesn't strike me as someone who would use AI to write the game. He's always had a thing for flowery language anyway.

you forgot about the french. They use that word
TBH There's a pretty big issue in a lot of media with ultra-toxic, terminally online Twitter/youtube "fans" just constantly screeching and drowning out actual discussion. These people are less than 1% of the audience but they dominate all discussion.Yeah, sure. Cry babies. Toxic fanbase! Rascists and misogynists!
Hmm. Where did I hear that before?
It's like people don't realize that if you don't like something....just don't watch/read/play it and go do something you actually enjoy.
For example - search for anything related to Star Wars on youtube and your results will be full of bloated, middle aged men screeching into the abyss about how this series made to sell toys to literal children doesn't appeal to them lmao. Like bruh, you should less concerned about Luke Skycuck and and more concerned with your cholesterol. You're literally falling apart, ya fat fuck. Go do your taxes.
LOL be careful, people might get mad at you when they realize you are talking about the people here SCREAMING out of their lungs that this games a scam.
It's pretty messed up and toxic, but TBH I'm here mainly to enjoy the flame wars between Crush's detractors and occasional white knights
Speaking of ChatGPT... is the latest five star review (starting: "This game boasts intricate and immersive storylines, offering players an unparalleled gaming experience...") written by it?

I like the atmosphere he tries to create regarding the restaurants, bars, clubs and city exploration, but everything else about this project just leaves me derrièrehurt.
