Man, you've got to be objective here and not be subjective.

This was posted on 29th July 2023 (here) : https://f95zone.to/threads/heart-problems-v0-8-final-xenorav.63437/page-350#post-11352273

This was posted on the day he quit his job 16th August 2023 (here): https://f95zone.to/threads/heart-problems-v0-8-final-xenorav.63437/page-365#post-11495837

Take 5 mins to read what he said himself. I don't hate this Dev's work. Wouldn't follow the thread if it was the case. I'm only showing his own words.

I understand he has health issues, I understand his past full-time job was becoming complicated and he didn't have time to work on the game and he took a risky gamble.

But, he said I've finally quit my job so since last Saturday HeartProblems has officially become my priority now. Thanks, guys.

So, being at 10% after 1 month is totally surprising and unbelievable in a sense. There's no difference in the workflow before his full-time job and now. I'm only stating facts. There's no hate or trolling in my post. I'm just disappointed and was expecting faster progression.

I understand your disappointment, but there is no time that does not pass, nor deadline that is not met.
I send you a big greeting and thank you for commenting.

Well, I am a long-time-fan-turned-hater of GRRM for being a lazy attention-hound and choosing to be a celebrity whore rather than finishing the story that made him famous and g.o.t. (ha ha ha) him out of his mom's basement.

HOWEVER, I think perhaps it is way too early to crap on the dev in this case. Quoting posts from July and complaining about 10% of renders being completed is a bit myopic, no? Real life has lots of things that need attention as well, particularly if (as was posted above) health is an issue and job was quit, especially since health insurance may have been attached to the job. Not to mention family issues if older parents are around and need help or have their own health issues, pets/friends/family members can pass away, etc. The point is that nobody knows what's going on in the dev's life. If a year goes by and lots of promised deadlines come and go with no new content, then at that point it may be time to simply cut bait and assume the game is abandoned because life's hardships were too much to overcome. But until that point (or at least a little more time than July to now, FFS), maybe take a breath and realize that negative comments may push creatives who are stuggling away from working on creative projects and therefore have the opposite effect than intended.

"I left my job, the chapter will be shorter, but will be released in 3 months".
Of course I believed it when I saw it in one of his earlier posts. (NO) You can especially believe it when you see this –

  • Images = 10%

in a month of "work". Same thing every time. See you next year...somewhere there.

I tried to keep going but had to stop.. this game and the girls are just becoming more and more uninteresting. Nothing really going on except sex. Not really anything to each of the girls routes going on. Xenorav needs to get a writer. Characters feel soulless. Complete lack of any story going on except maybe the David-Amelie plot which isn't much..really is the bare minimum.

Animations are damn near flawless.. wonderful lighting, skin, angles and fluidity.. but animations alone can't save a game. I don't know if the writing gets better but I stopped around Chapter 7. Very boring other than the animations.

I think this is a very valid argument. However, this game was honestly never made to be a ground-breaking story about tragedy or horror or even comedy.

This game's story was, simply put, made to have the main character bang his *not* female family members. And honestly, I'm all for it.

It's nice to have games that have rich stories, but sometimes I just want to turn my brain off and watch incredibly modeled characters like Amelia slowly give themselves to the main character.

Not everything has to be Shakespeare my friend.

While I agree I don't want the dev to stop at least trying with the story. Like I don't want him to get the mindset of "well if they don't care about the story then it doesn't matter"

Well! In steps amateur writer, stage left!

As it goes, I have actually begun what has now become an extensive Re-Write of the game! Chapter 1 is completed and can be found here if you'd like to give it a go!

I'm most of the way through Chapter 2 right now and will do my best to improve the readability and enjoyment of the game up to the latest Chapters, stamina willing!

All feedback welcome!

I am not sure but there appears to be a conflict between the Joker Mod and the Gallery Mod. When I put them both in I end up with -

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

When I loaded the game it was loud so I clicked preferences and that popped up.. Ignoring just stepped through the error and started the game.

So did I do something wrong?
