I'm aware this thread is nothing left but haters (who also love this game, that's why you're here) but I will still discuss the game I enjoy here.

oh common... what do you have to discuss about game one year after last update? only thing we can do about game is mocking situation - updates, "dev's" lies and scam, morons that are paying monthly fee for it...
and there is no haters here. we all love this game. otherwise we wouldn't be here.
(but we are definitelly no fans of "dev" or lazy milking cheating s.o.b.)

Last update was

released to public 31/5/2024.

There are several qualifiers for the abandoned prefix rule 3.2, but the one based on game updates is > 18 months, so if that occurs soonest (unlikely), it would be considered abandoned 30 November 2025.

My guess is they will release the life path upgrade update before the end of 2024.

This is going to sound crazy because I am a member of the Discord for this project and I visit its meme pages (and no other pages) every day, but I deadass forgot there's even a game attached to that server. It's become simply a place I go to laugh at funny captions.

Mate, it's almost mid-December, and there hasn't been any indication it's close to a release. Not to mention he hasn't even started the mandatory rewrites because it's not hot enough

The last update was like a single scene.

I can't imagine him releasing anything of substance but I can imagine a little demonstration that he has actually built *something* in the last six months slipping out before New Year. If only to keep the paypigs on side and give his defenders something to gesture at.

I can't imagine anything of substance emerging for the simple reason that he doesn't appear to have made any actual creative decisions... it's all 'I could do this' and 'we're looking at that' but it's all very open and insubstantial and doesn't bear the patina of someone who has been sat in front of a keyboard for a while before going 'this way... I'm doing it this way'.

There's a text-based game called Inner Empire (which... really good... recommended) and the dev for that game has basically disappeared into a massive update that will be about 4 months late at this point and the updates from that dev are concrete and specific; we know the number of words, the number of scenes, they talk about exploring specific plot-lines, and making decisions about what to work on based upon what they know about the paths people take through the game.

Admittedly Crush has never been that specific about his creative process (or lack thereof) but think about when he was writing about buying shoes or selecting hairstyles. Those are evidence of concrete creative decisions being made... evidence that is almost entirely lacking from more recent updates.

No haters here? Be honest.

You specifically don't seem to be down in the hole, at least not yet. There is an option to think that this is just a game and if there's an update you will play it, whenever or never if it dies.

Vast majority of everyone here are on the hook, addicted, and jonesing for their next fix. The wait turns a lot of people nasty: lashing out; imagining they could do better (some take action, to their credit); accusing the developer of lies and scams, ultimately introducing hateful poison you carry in your souls IRL.

But you're all still here. Their next update will never satisfy you. You like the dark.

Wrong. I'm here for the same reason I look at a pileup on the highway. It's hard to look away and it's interesting to speculate on the cause of the crash.

I didn't play the last beta and I have no intention of playing any eventual update to this game until the Bangkok storyline advances, which will, quite possibly, never happen.

The reality is that Crush is a fairly average writer with absolutely abysmal output. His coding skills are limited and as an HTML RPG-lite, FA doesn't even register. It's a non-entity in terms of art assets. BUT FA really excels as a case study of the pitfalls of the patreon-fueled development system - which incentivizes drawing out the process with limited content updates for as long as patrons are wiling to subsidize their struggling "genius". In the real world, this game would have been completed or pulled years ago.

It's fine if you want to keep playing the role of the defender of the faith, but your pathetic continued attempts to categorize & stereotype participants in this thread have long grown tiresome. You should give it a rest.

You're so in love with their game you wrote four paragraphs. About something you deeply care about. Otherwise you would have just moved on. But this, apparently, is the game you need. That's addiction, buddy.

Crush is a great writer, deeply flawed in delivery, but so good you are still typing about your cravings months later.

Answer me this: new update drops tomorrow you play it, right?

Most in this thread will play their new update ASAP. Have a mighty wank. Then go back to bitching about it.

Just don't pretend you don't care.

"Answer me this: new update drops tomorrow you play it, right?"

You struggle with reading comprehension apparently and should seek help for that.

And as I indicated, you are not capable of posting here without judging and commenting on the motives of other posters. Pathetic and sad...

I don't think that's true for the simple reason that Crush's updates are too short and infrequent to be able to get up a good head of steam.

I know I'm old, touch-starved, and my prostate is the size of a melon but it does take more to get me off than one scene a year and a couple of posts about hair-styles and shoes. Give me some credit.
