yeah i can find the alpha version of the game too and make this sentence wrong too...
how old the 0.7 is exactly ? 3 years or so...
my statement is solid for the last 2 years at least. i even remember when the dev was just poping out and stated that the game was not planned to be an adult sexual game and didn't even planned to add sex in it at base. (can't lie on that, it's on LL if nothing have changed there)
let's be honest, it's been years sinze something decent happened in this game. most update are basically adding stuff in stories and fixing or improving stuff (like lights, forever lights...), a few updates added new chars like Lety, vickie and such.
a big update changed the house version to the actual one (old one was shitty, that's true) and the chars receive some change (wich aren't that old)
from a simple perspective, in what ... 4 years. we can say this game is under developed. Soo much could have been added. Like, for exemple, a possibility to play in third person. it's not like this is going to kill the game or add extreme difficulty to get a up-the-shoulder camera style view.
or maybe simply a way to add our own name, instead of never being called by our name...
it's just exemples.
It's not true in the last two years. It's not true at all really.
As somebody who has been following this game from the beginning, there are TONS of updates and new things to discover in the last two years. The game went from very rough around the edges, to very polished in that time. They're not adding as much in terms of story or new characters, but that's because they are pulling it out of Early Access and they are in the finalizing stages. I think most of the rest of the updates will be polish aside from the few more things they have announced.
This game wouldn't work in third person. If you look at the CSC and the scripting tools, there's a lot that goes on literally behind the player's back in a lot of scenes, and the devs use the first person view and the locking of the dialogue mechanics to their advantage when scripting the story. It's probably more of a development choice than a lack of a feature.
The player having a name wouldn't work either because everything is voice acted. Do you expect the devs to create a VA file for every name in the world? Not even AAA games do this.
You are just throwing out features that other games have and acting like in order to be a good game, a game needs to have everything that every other game possibly has plus more. That's not how it works. Those are design choices, not underdevelopment.
At the end of the day, this game is on Steam competing with AAA titles, and 9 out of 10 people who buy it are rating it positively. Shit on it all you want, but it's still the most successful title to come out of this community. I am excited to see what the devs are going to do next.
Bottom line; if you want a 3D sex simulator (which apparently is your gauge as to what makes a game good), this is not the game for you. If you want the closest thing to AAA quality out of an indie adult game with actual gameplay and humorous content, then this is the game for you. I don't get people criticizing games for not being exactly what THEY want them to be, especially when the mission statement from the devs is the polar opposite. It's like buying a Snickers bar and complaining it's not more like a Kit Kat. It's not trying to be.
