If you don't "care super hard" about it, why are you replying to the same comment, insisting the same thing? My point was that if it bothers you so much, just avoid it. Talking about what payment models you think works is completely off topic and pointless. I don't know what you expect me to think when you took "15 seconds" to type 7 paragraphs, but you'd be even more of an asshole to start an off topic conversation with a half-assed essay for a topic you don't really care about. You would have been better off just not replying at all than to backpedal this hard, let alone do it twice in less than 24 hours. I didn't care enough to give you a reply the first time, if you couldn't take a hint.

actually, didn't notice you didn't reply to me, for whatever reason.
as for a backpedal, it's not. i'm killing time talking on a -gasp- forum, about something someone else started. it's not like i started this going 'oh it's super fucking important people know about this'.
it's not 'unfair' or whatever you said, it just doesn't really 'work'
i'm not emotionally invested in discussing it, just, replying. spent some time on reddit doing the same for shit, i'm not 'offended' about.
it's just a step in between me clicking my link for f95, and the 'latest updates' click. that's all.

also, i'm an asshole for writing a paragraph that's somewhat off topic - sure.
didn't you essentially do the exact same thing, though? i mean, i replied in kind, to what you said, after all, i didn't start talking about the pricing issues with these kinds of games, out of nowhere...

Sure, I know a lot of games. First example which came instantly in my mind is "Promise Better Left Unkept". Animations on pair with Goodbye Eternity, 1000x more content but especially voice which no hentai game can compare. And guess what :) Update each month while doing 2-3 side projects which are released once in 3 months. And yes, they doesn't take $100k per half year. And they doesn't go afk for half year but they are reporting their work consistently. You know exactly what are you paying for.

That's how studio which isn't scaming people but actually take job seriously and is having fun making games looks like. :) And that's just 1 example of many.

What rest content are you talking about and what's shit about this game? I'm really hoping you were not thinking about ntr being shit.
And he was not comparing, he was giving an example of a 2d game taking less than 3-4 months development time. Why do you think it's unfair to compare those 2 games?

Maybe you can give reasons on why something is actually shit and unfair to get compared to goodbye eternity.

Did y'all also miss the part where that dude had already made a few VNs prior to to making the one you're talking about? You're comparing the capabilities of someone's who's basically a veteran in what he does to someone to someone with significantly less experience. And just because someone can do it with those resources doesn't mean everyone can, considering how cost of living vary between countries.

And it's fine and dandy that those devs are doing well, but you're clearly not paying for this dev, so it shouldn't even matter to you what this dude makes for how much work he does. Do you sit there and complain about how much the regional manager at Starbucks makes compared to Dunkin Donuts too? Or how much more it costs to hire an American call center than one in Dubai? No, because none of those things are your business.

The fact of the matter is this dude is working on the game, and people are willing to throw money at him. I don't understand why you have to sit here and play couch chair investor. What are you investing out here, your potential masturbation enjoyment?

Rest of the content is shit? Which part exactly? Probably the part where this game has 1000 times more content or the part there is top-tier audio included. You probably didin't like the game because you can't loot invisible coins on the ground like in Goodbye Eternity lmao.

If your arguments are few other sex scenes which may seems like low quality, rest assured. There are still more high quality sex scenes than in whole Goodbye eternity. Btw. some are made different and simple purposely. So you don't get bored with just 1 same art. Top-tier matter.

No buddy, nice try but no. Goodbye Eternity can't even lick feets to this game in terms of quality. Actually it can't lick feets even to those side projects.

Yo I swear I've looked in like 3 different game threads and there's been arguments like this in them, am I in a loop?
Click to expand...
Every thread on this site with a Patreon link in the OP will have this argument. There might be more posts on the subject than there are about the actual games.

"you don't get bored with just 1 same art ?" Huh I'm sorry what ? Consistancy is pretty important when you make a game, I don't think it's acceptable to have scenes that look completely different from others. Also the idea that it's ok to have low quality scenes because "you have high quality ones" on the side isn't something I'd accept either.
I don't know that game, and I for one don't hate NTR (in fact I like the genre if done right) so that's really not a problem to me that the game is. I might have to try it out to see for myself if it is as good as you say, but even then, that's one exemple. You say you have a lot of others (games that are updated every months with quality content), and I seriously doubt it.

I don't care for quantity in a game. Especially cause I've seen too many games that pad their wordcounts and use the same kind of boring scenes over and over again (Sunshine Love and its unsufferable wordy writting). I care that I like the scenes, the characters and their interactions, and that it feels fresh enough that I don't feel like I'm playing "Generic porn game Nth".

You seem very focused on the money RNGeus is making, too. First of all it's easy to use a big number (100K every 6 months instead of talking about the amount per months), second do you have any idea how many people works with him ? What the money is after taxes ? What his production costs are ? Is it a side-gig, something he does fulltime ?
And after all of that, even if he does a lot of money, so what ? Are you paying for it ? Do you feel like you're being robbed ? Then why continuing to support ? And if you're not, why do you care so much, what's it to you that others like his project enough that they want to make it so he can keep at it. That's really something I don't get at all on this website, entirely too much time spent by people commenting on how "dev x makes too much money".


When all is said and done, and to get back to my initial point : your original argument was poorly made. It read as a troll comment, made to rile up the dev. I'd have taken you more seriously if instead of comparing RNGeus to fucking Rockstar you had compared them to the dev you mentioned after. I don't mind people explaining why they don't like something. I do care that they do so in good faith.

Dude is 100% a troll. He says a scene with an animation of literally 2 frames(just 2 low detail pictures where head position changes) with 5 secs between them is better than this game. Anyway,thanks for the laugh guy.

How is genre an argument in quality topic?
Click to expand...
If I produce a product, which is disliked and harsher judged by a group, I have to be cautious. BTW beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so is quality.

Since you said "one example of many" I thought "what an odd choice"

Here's another update from RNGeusEX on
You must be registered to see the links
just now:


Last news​
​
Here we are: after eight months of development, I've finally had the chance to play the Godot version of the game in a preview. While some elements are more than satisfying, I must face reality and make some difficult decisions.​
​
I thought I could offer you this new version on time, but if you had it in your hands today, the gaming experience would really not be up to par, and an additional ten days of development wouldn't change that.​
​
Understand me well: the version is playable and quite stable, but compared to the Renpy version, the Godot version is not yet there...​
​
I do not wish to present you with a half-finished result, especially after a long wait.​
​
However, don't panic: the release of version 0.8 is still scheduled for this month. Over time, one learns to anticipate problems, and I continued to develop the Renpy version while Selenyhr worked on the Godot version.​
​
Once we finalize a few things, version 0.8 will be delivered to you in about ten days.​
​
We've also noticed with Godot that the game size slightly increases. While this poses no problem on PC, the Android version might suffer, as Android does not allow files larger than 2 GB (this remains possible, but requires a different organization and a bit more time on our side).​
​
I will also make the decision to postpone the release of the game on GOG, as the Godot version is not ready. I do not plan to sell the 0.8 version of Goodbye Eternity on Renpy only to switch game engines in the next update...​
​
Sorry for this bad news... I believed in it until the end, but I cannot and do not want to make you wait any longer, especially you who support this project.​
​
So, to summarize:​
  • The 0.8 version on Renpy will arrive in about ten days.
  • The release of the game on Godot is temporarily postponed.
  • The Godot version continues its finishing phase to surpass what Renpy can currently offer. (This will also allow Selenyhr to take a break and avoid burnout.)
Take care, and we'll see you in about ten days' time for the official release of version 0.8.​

Have they mentoined the reason for moving to Godot anywhere?
