Ren'Py Abandoned Hero's Harem Guild [v0.1.2.3b Public] [Komisari]

[riderin]

Hey guys i just made 178 gajilion of renders, DONATE TO MY PATREON.
Typing and saying shit, is one thing, delivering what you said is another. Who knows what he mean by those numbers. I remember in 00s getting H-Games and they loved to say "1000 HCGs", reality is it is like 10 CG with 100 minor variants of mouth or liquid on body.

Every time I visit this thread, it's the same fucking argument with the same tired points. The dev is clearly working on the game, albeit at a snail's pace, and he definitely doesn't give a shit about trying to stick to any kind of deadline. He can afford to satisfy his perfectionism and work at his own leisure because his core audience will support him no matter what. That's it, that's the whole fucking deal.
There are only two options left: board his train and prepare yourself for a long ass wait, or gtfo and pay devs, who actually try to adhere to a rough development cycle, that doesn't suck at time management and keep the promises they make.
People need to stop involving others in their weird fetish play, where they argue over the same shit again and again.

That's a pretty fuckin' decent clip that most games don't get to.

Compared to Tales of Unity... ...well, yeah, sure, uh-huh.
I will just leave you with your trauma then.

What's wrong with weird fetish plays? We are on the porn games forum, after all

i mean u seem to do it quite often

Hey man, there's a reason Chumee is my Avatar. I was in deep with Stronkboi back when he was starting ToU. And something that held quite true was that renders took a long time to make. That's why the early game H was so brief - easier to make 1 or 3 gifs and put out 4 scenes than 42 gifs and 1 scene.

If Komi is using 42 renders per H scene then... That's a choice. It means they should be amazing quality, which tracks with the game we've got. But it doesn't surprise me at all that updates are coming really slow, in such an event, y'know? Renders take a while. More renders per scene higher quality. Komi is clearly going for maximal quality over quantity and speed.

If you wanna question how they handle development itself then fair, I think this thread is exhibit A on the flaws of perfectionism in game development, but trying to pretend like he ain't working when all the evidence is that he is, just slowly and with a fine-tipped brush, then you're deluding yourself and trying to mislead others. That shit ain't cool.

This game is never getting done due to the fact that's not profitable to the dev. Milking with the classic carrot on a stick is clearly the plan. He could've hired a small team to ghost-make it with all the cash he got in all those years. Great indie games were made with far less $.
What's sad is I see the same 2-3 people here who I remember from way back this game still had hope, still whiteknighting for him.
"B-b-but look at all those GIFs he made!!11" "B-b-but he makes 4823479237 renders per month!11!"
Sad stuff. I'll check back in a couple months just to laugh at the same people in plate armor doing work.

You don't even need a team, a coder and "artist" (it's koikatsu, calling him and artist is going really far) would be enough for this kind of game, just look at mity and FET

Yeah honestly this game is at the shallow end of the pool in terms of visual quality; many other devs have squeeze much better results out of Koikatsu.

Of course I do honey, I try to be able to reach your levels, im trying my 100% but I still can't.... how you are so brainless and so brainrot at the same time? I am stunned by such feat

A coder and an artist are a team.

Out of curiousity, care to share examples?

Oh shut up, you'll come back to check the game because despite what you say you still like it and still hope for the update, you aren't thru with the game and never will be so don't act lol

Of course I do honey, I try to be able to reach your levels, im trying my 100% but I still can't.... how you are so brainless and so brainrot at the same time? I am stunned by such feat

You really should not be walking around without a helmet, just saying

Is there a certain font error?（Is the author using Russian?
(I am unable to inquire in Discord ，because the Supported prompt in its Rule keeps saying "interaction failed")
Edit： Oh, I think it might be because I used an archive that doesn't belong to me

advice from own experience with your brain? Don't worry honey, not all of us have our brains coming out of our ears.

Goddesses whim, my hentai fantasy, academy live... there are many good koikatsu games out there

ive never seen such cope and so many people coming to a games defense before on here. this is the third time this game has been marked as abandoned on here which goes to say something about it. the games dead and work has slowed to a crawl you guys dont have to dickride this game anymore! its over its done there are plenty of better games on here.

 

[sds800]

you claim it will never be finished and management is horrible yet you still return knowing this expecting something different....i wonder who's take is actually retarded here

Yes. people return to this game because it was a actually interesting game. HOWEVER that doesnt mean we cant criticize this game at all. Being abandoned for a third time is not a good look on here. and you absolutely defending this game like your life depends on it is pretty pathetic mate.

Picture this: Eric Barone, the lone developer behind the phenomenal success of Stardew Valley, managed to create his game in less time than Komi, despite having to develop all the features from scratch in his game engine. Meanwhile, Komi is working with Renpy, where most of the features are already ready to use, and yet, his game doesn’t even have its first chapter yet.

Barone created the majority of his 2D assets himself, a daunting and time-consuming task. On the other hand, Komi took a different route, using prefabricated assets from Koikatsu. This raises the question: why is the development of his game taking so long?

In addition to this, Barone didn’t have large revenues during the development of his game, he didn’t have a Patreon or anything else, while Komi is thriving. In the end, Stardew Valley is an extremely well-crafted game that had far fewer resources than Hero’s Harem Guild.

If Komi is truly pouring his heart into his game and if he is as perfectionist as he claims, we might be witnessing the birth of a masterpiece.
