Others Abandoned Glamour [v0.57] [Dark Silver]

[a1fox3]

DarkSilver is digging his game grave with this.

question: saving the game will it be a client side save or a server side save?

Dark Silver
Server side

Once his supporters see not only part of the game will be server side now save's will also be server side and you have to pay all the time just to play this game.

LOL DS just LOL on this bullshit.

Hazarding a guess, but I assume that's for Glamour.

Not meaning to be a dick, but shouldn't that be in the Glamour thread, and not here?

It is there to but do you forget that he did BB to so I am just letting folks over here know whats going on with DS, this could kill his games altogether.

people will vote with their wallets, this is clearly anti consumer, it is bound to fail

the problem is that patreon is not a regular business relationship, it's a patronage, there is a lot of people that probably don't give a fuck, and worse, think that's actually a good thing because they hate piracy

I remember. I remember the DRM and its removal because of how ineffective it was thanks to the talented work done in cracking it each release.
I also remember how certain people responded to not getting what they thought they would, when it was promised by Dark Silver, and since what you said only relates to Glamour (at this point in time at least), it could easily be seen as petty and childish.

As long as the info about server-side only saves is on the first page of the Glamour thread, it doesn't need to be anywhere else.

It’s like MMO, but without one M and another M. Though, one M still here: M for Money.

And i got called paranoid for stating what now is happening LMAO

Who the hell is this Mr.Dots that you keep mentioning? Not everyone knows him. I would dare say most don't know of him.

Almost everyone knows him he is the dev ov DMD and Melody. And other then DS he delivers content on time and actually listen to his fanbase.

That doesn't mean that his fanbase intersects with DS'. I checked DMD some time ago and it was horrible - inept story, weird ugly characters straight out of the uncanny valley... no idea why it's popular even if you are into that one fetish.

Another portion of bugfixes and new features introductions.


Fixed a bug where the game would crash if there's no StreamingAssets folder.

Improved dialogs: now if you scroll text up the game won't automatically add new messages. But if you press space bar or scroll down, then new messages will appear. We're also planning for another optional feature: buttons "pause" and "skip" on the bottom of the screen.

Added progress bar so you always know whether the game is downloading updates.

Almost done with android client, you should see it in a couple of days.

Minor cosmetic changes in the client.



As always, all aforementioned bugfixes and features are already in your version of the game (except android client, of course). I think I'll stop mentioning it in future posts. From now let's all just take it as a default, and if something goes horribly wrong and you'll have to download an update manually, I will mention it in the post.

Well it looks like player are starting to take notice to the crap DS is doing now and more supporters are dropping him before the end of the month.
Just wait till more of the supporters find out after downloading the game then going off line to play, the shit storm will start then.

I think this is because they expect more content in 0.1 (some games do have a lot of content in 0.1)

Online game with server side saves and content...

Well, imho, DS has bitten more then he can chew.

Besides grossly overestimating regular porn games audience interest in his game, he also made a seriously bad business decision that will turn most of them off his game in a very short time.

Just for comparison - Origin Access costs around 20 euros a year and gives you the option to play hundreds of A class games. You can download and play all of them without any "online content and saves" restrictions. Only thing "online" they do is to check if your subscription is still valid.

Glamour will eventually have some playable content in a year or two unless DS abandons it for the lack of support.
Forcing people to pay for a slow development of a mediocre porn game (that will take years to develop into anything resembling a true game) from $5 to $40 every month is ridiculous - only hardcore DS fans might stay on it in the long run.

Some say "any publicity is good publicity" but, in this case, a series of bad business decisions and bad publicity will probably be his downfall at the end.
Whatever happens, happens - good luck DS.

Unless there is another steep drop i don't think he has much to worry about. People seems to be pretty happy in the comments in his patreon page.

ps: thanks for the update.

A few games have started this server business now so I was left with the choice, do I support them or not ..... I bought Far Cry 5 instead.

No regrets.

One of my biggest gripes with BB was the pussy block, that was truly annoying. We had those gorgeous characters but they were always on those weird angles blocking the view of their pussies/asses, it was basically softcore porn. Based on that, it doesn't make me excited for Glamour at all if they will continue with the same "artistic" style. Now to make matters even worse it has Female Protagonist and DRM?

Really tough sell for me.

Yes the only 2 nude shoots in the game I saw had the pussy's hidden from view.

1. You can see just the hair
2. The hand hides it.
3. Leg hides it.
4 Also leg and hand hides it.

Server side save, NPC's and more are all server side.
When you start up the game and if show the bar on loading the game it is downloading components to play the game and they get deleted when you shut down the game.
