People are brain dead if they think that the dev is a scammer. He's clearly working on the game.
My problem with him is that he made a side project and got so into it that he wasted so much time that could've gone into the main update. The christmas update came out in may, and he obviously worked on it before christmas as well.
And then after he dropped the update he basically said "everyone loves the update" when responding to people that were legit frustrated that he went on an at least 6 month long side track.

Don't insult me you little shit, 1 year without any updates that is why this got the abandoned tag in the first place and later removed, 2 years for Snowy & Christmas update that no one did ask for and so on. Just cuz he is updating stuff now or at least trying or what ever idk anymore anyway doesn't give you the right to call other people brain dead for the things that already did happen without any argument or proof so politely fk off with love.

Well you don't demonstrate normal adult human behavior, so "brain dead" fits or "mentally disturbed"
Huh. You wrote all this trying to prove that you're NOT brain dead? Cause you sure got triggered like a brain dead little bitch while having some psycho argument with yourself. I don't know what point you're even trying to make. Take your meds.
Frankly the issue with Komi is either they are scamming and pulling a less egregious "Tales of Divinity" or they are frankly TOO perfectionist and ambitious in making the game and its severely hurt the game as a result.
I used to really be hyped about the game. That was around three years ago. Now I no longer care. If a new update drops, I don't even think I will download it because the hype window for the game for me has come and gone. The problem with only ever releasing huge updates is until that huge update is ready, we get absolutely nothing for the game. Its been four years since HHG was released. We're not even close to a quarter-way through the entire game and my hype has completely dried up to the point I don't care any longer what happens in it. And I'm certain I'm not the only one.
Now I'm no patron and do not send money to Komi but if I had, I can guarantee I absolutely would feel cheated and pull my funding no matter the reason. I wouldn't care that they're working on it any longer. They've been working on it for over a year and have nothing tangible to show for it. No matter how you slice it, its their job as the creator to keep some level of consistency and work. The second they started taking money to make it, its no longer just a passion project for the dev anymore, its other peoples' investment with their hard-earned money. They have every right to want to see results.

For the first i would avoid arguing with you and i don't have the strength, If you don't know what is my point then you didn't follow this subject and or this thread or this game, Calling people brain dead means you call everyone brain dead and stupid if they did say dev is a scammer as a group of all of us, clearly you didn't follow him for 3 years or more so you can be up to date with his ways and if you did then there is clearly something wrong with you. Stop it man and get some help. I am not replying to you anymore.

That depends, for me those who do not distrust someone who made many promises and everything turned out to be a lie are the ones who are in "brain dead status" many devs say "I'm working on it" and show less than what they promise among others. .. trusting someone who said that the game was almost ready in 2022 with more than 2k images and then wants to do a reorganization feels very off, I still wonder how it is possible that such naive people exist.
It's a normal thought, donating money for a cause and you don't see anything that's supposed to be done. It's strange. A person with common sense would come to their senses and feel that way. Only people who don't care about their money, or who are naive, do those types of things without considering what they are doing, Everyone does what they want with their money, I do what I want with my comments... that's how things are XD

You literally just admitted how its a common thing amongst devs, maybe there's an actual reason, maybe because life is not 1 dimensional and there are multiple variables at play at any given time, maybe there's more to it then just the "scam" cover up.
with that logic i guess every form of charity should shut down, animals are still dying, trees are being cut, ocean still polluted, people still starving, many still don't have homes, there still isn't one true cure for cancer. You're right, when you give a few bucks to someone it should have auto completed their cause, thats so strange.......hmmmm quite odd indeed

There are devs that take longer than others and there are those that take less, it is normal there are many examples on both sides, so the truth is that it has no effect on anything, all people have problems that can influence the development of the game but there is a limit to excuses or delays/lies and for komi that most of the things he has said are excuses for some stupid ones as the reason for doing the Xmas event. I tell you the same, there is much more beyond blindly believing in someone just because they say they are working on an update, perhaps is something beyond "cool dev" cover up, that you are believing only time will tell, but with 3 years for something What komi promised would be only 2, it doesn't look good at all, in 2024 chapter 1 will be 4 years in development with so many remaster/rebuilt/reworks... and it became canon we will have a remaster of the prologue yeah babyYou literally just admitted how its a common thing amongst devs, maybe there's an actual reason, maybe because life is not 1 dimensional and there are multiple variables at play at any given time, maybe there's more to it then just the "scam" cover up.

It would be better if they closed them, captain cerebrum idk if you know it But tax money is used for many things including charity, but there is a word called corruption, I don't know if you know it, most of that money never reaches the people who are supposed to help. But if you think that donating for 3 and a half years for a chapter of a porn game that hasn't been released yet has value for you, you are welcome.
Just to be 100% clear, I'm NOT saying Komi is or is not a scammer since frankly I don't know them beyond they make a game on Patreon that is posted here and I frankly am in no real position to make a judgment of that caliber. My earlier comment is purely one from an overall neutral (though admittedly personally negative) stance. I'm also not saying anyone MUST feel like they were scammed, only that if anyone does feel such, nobody really has any right to tell them they are wrong to feel that way. Regardless of the reason, the facts are Komi has absolutely put a lot of effort into the game (hence it being the way it is now) but also has not really had an update with any real substance besides an unrelated Christmas event in a long time. While it can turn out to be a scam in the end even if it started strong, it also could well be burnout from making the game, difficulty getting things to work without issue (programming anything is a bitch) or even just real life getting in the way. Its true that there's no escaping the fact that this game has largely been at a standstill for a while but its also true that up until that point there's been a lot of effort going in.
So frankly, everyone should draw their own conclusions on the matter and decide for themselves whether they want to continue to have faith in Komi (Or place their faith in them now) and financially support them or not and pull out (or not get financially involved to begin with). This one is imo definitely a suspicious case but not a definitively clear-cut scam (at least not yet). But that's just my take. I'm frankly willing to believe Komi is just being too perfectionist for their (and the game's) own good but the hard fact is I don't know for certain either way.

The chapter has been in development for a long time now, many of the things Komi said turned out to be lies or cannot be verified, we don't know how much progress has been made or anything, the only thing we know is that the Christmas event was launched, but nothing apart from that, there are only devlogs that do not give relevant information about the progress of the chapter, so stating that something was done or not is almost impossible, which is why some people have doubts, the only thing we know is that chapter 1 possibly It will not be released next year at the rate it is on Trello, I am a person of facts and the only fact is that the update that should have been released a long time ago (chapter 1) has not been released
I don't care if Komi is a scammer a milker, perfectionist/procrastinator/stupid or whatever., that doesn't matter to me, it's his patreon and he does whatever he wants, if his patreons don't have enough brains it's their problem, not mine, Komi isn't going to get a penny of me, when the game is finished maybe, but I don't pay for unfinished games, I only come here to laugh at the people desperate for an update for those who trust blindless someone without any kind of doubts and those who have spent more than 300 dollars these 3 years to receive nothing

I wouldn't say its fair to laugh at the people who are financially supporting this project. At the end of the day, these are human beings who have enjoyed and connected with the current story and have faith in the developer for creating more of it. That's just how creative development is. The question of how Komi should have organised themselves when it comes to time/delivery, is another story and people have the right to their opinion. No one is arguing against that. However, even while not being financially invested in this, I still believe he is genuining working on this project and has shown better signs of development through Trello and status updates. If people actually took the time out to see, new content and changes are being introduced regardless of the debate about the chapter being remade, remastered, etc. If Komi believes this will improve the overall quality of the product, then let them have the freedom to do so. It's their project after all. I've played several games with long periods between releases, and I also do prefer if some of the older content and systems were updated to reflect the current skills of the developer, over just adding new content every update. When the new update comes out, I'll be sure to try it out and have my say about if the development time was worth it. If not, as many try to claim, then so be it. The game will just be labeled as abandoned and you can move on. Komi loses out on a fanbase and an income. I lose nothing.The chapter has been in development for a long time now, many of the things Komi said turned out to be lies or cannot be verified, we don't know how much progress has been made or anything, the only thing we know is that the Christmas event was launched, but nothing apart from that, there are only devlogs that do not give relevant information about the progress of the chapter, so stating that something was done or not is almost impossible, which is why some people have doubts, the only thing we know is that chapter 1 possibly It will not be released next year at the rate it is on Trello, I am a person of facts and the only fact is that the update that should have been released a long time ago (chapter 1) has not been released

Also, speaking of laughing, why aren't we also laughing at the users who spend an exorbitant number of time on this thread just for the purpose of shitting on Komi and his supporters? Replying to any post trying to be remotely positive just to "dunk" on it? They definitely aren't patrons, and clearly have no interest in the development anymore. So why are they spending this much time on a project they've given up on, and lacking the self awareness that they aren't bound to this project by blood? Why are they still here? It's not even about criticism at this point. Enough has been said about Komi and his development process. It's just the same old arguments and jokes, regurgitated and repackaged by another user. It's just as annoying as talking about "blind believers". You aren't any better if you're using just as much of your own time on a project and developer you don't even care about. It makes no sense and is borderline psychopathic behaviour.
P.S. I'm not targeting this towards you specifically, just saying in general.

1) It's not about being fair or not, it's something I want to do and I can do it, many developers ditch their games due to lack of support, while there are others who receive a lot of support without delivering anything, the world is not fair
2) komi has said a lot of things before, whatever he says on trello doesn't mean anything if we can't check if it's true or not with the amount of delays the update has received, unless chapter 1 comes out whatever is said it does not mean anything, Komi can do whatever he wants with his game, no one is putting pressure on him, he is the one who put himself in this situation, no one else. and if he wants to continue like this, good for him I guess
3) You are quite naive if you think that people are so intelligent to do that, I tell you something, most of the people on the planet are stupid, they are animals that will never learn from their mistakes, even if the update ends up being something that is not worth it, komi won't lose his fanbases, even if Komi says hes ditching the game, he will not lose money, even if komi is ghosting his donors/fanbases he won't lose money there's many example of this, there will be always dumb people who believe in the possible return of the game, that's enough for a stupid person to continue spending money on something even if the game is abandoned,
4) You can do it if you like, no one can stop you if you want and you don't break any rules of the site for doing it, for something there is a block button
5)Cuz they can do whatever they want, it's not like the Komi defenders are investing their time productively, they do what they want and that's it.
6) same from point 5 I'm just here to laugh for a while and nothing more, I never said I hate the game or anything, But everyone on this site is wasting their time anyway. Why complain about a game that hasn't had an update for 3 years?
Why defend a game/dev that hasn't had an update in years? Why make a devlog that doesn't show any progress of the game, which has been in development for 3 years, if you can't make a proper progress report? So they are all psychopathic?
