Right, and I told them that Eek! explains why they did it that way to be safe. I just don't get what the complaint is, because if they are suggesting that they should have just contacted Steam and said "hey look at this stuff we have in our game that's against your terms of service", that's just stupid.

I don't think it's stupid. I feel like if there is a rule that they needed clarification on, you should be able to have open communication with Steam. They work with developers pretty well in that regard.
You mean like when they banned House Party originally with no warning? That doesn't seem very "well".

I get your point. Next time they decide to do something, maybe they should get clarification beforehand. Like most people would do, not after the release. Especially after having their game removed before.
Yeah but the problem is that the rule about real people was a new one that Steam just put out randomly. It didn't exist before, and then suddenly there was this new rule, and House Party might have been in violation of it. So my guess is that Eek just didn't know if they were in violation or not, and I don't blame them for being cautious about it after already having their game yanked suddenly. It's all about the context man, and the way they approached it makes perfect sense.

I mean it obviously never affected me. As I don't play on Steam, but yeah I get it. I'm just not a fan of this company as a whole. You go to their discord to try and get answers for certain things and just give a bunch of stupid responses or meme's from the "mods" there. Who actually don't moderate anything, and just sit there all day jerking each other off. Mention how the roadmap has been awful since it was released? Ignored. They continue on with something meaningless.
I just wish they'd be a little more transparent. Female beta February->March->April (probably June) but no explanations. The one that was given was that they were busy uncesoring Lety so that's why it was pushed back. Horseshit, emails and having Don uncensor her would literally take him less than a minute. What else have they been doing in that time frame? I get the bugfix patch, and it contains a lot of things but don't overpromise and undersell constantly.

I just play the updates when they come - end of story, so I don't have to worry about any promises or road maps.
Who cares what they did in the time when a lot of companies had to be shut down temporarily.
They don't own us any explanations - at least not to those who are not Patreons.

I would take no issue with it at all, if they didn't keep updating their roadmap with different dates as if it means anything. Going to start doing what you're doing and just not pay attention until I see a new release.
Maybe their communication isn't the best, and that's a valid point, I'll give you that. I am sure there are reasons why it's taking longer than expected, which goes back to the conversation we had earlier, you can't really predict these things with much accuracy when it comes to this type of development. Maybe they don't have anything to say other than "it took longer than expected".
I mean, I dunno. I find the rest of this response to be rather presumptuous and entitled IMO. Not trying to be rude, just honest. You're obviously here because you like the game. We all are. And of course we all want better, faster updates, but it takes time to get this shit right, and it's hard to estimate how long it takes to do things. You are sitting here on the outside with no knowledge of what it takes to do anything regarding the game, and judging them based off your un-professional opinion. You didn't create a game that sold over a million copies. They did. You have no idea what they are dealing with as a company, but you presume to know how to run it better than they do.
The update will come. They're not just gonna up and go away and do something else. It'll be ready when it's ready. Just be happy that they are still creating content for us to enjoy rather than harping on the negative just because you can't have it RIGHT NOW.

Pretty much sums up my entire argument. Don't create a roadmap if it's meaningless, and don't overpromise and undersell. It's turned me off to them as a whole. What would make things a lot better, is if they were transparent about the situation. Which they really haven't been.
Agreed, and again, valid point. But I think all devs do this. Not just Eek.

Ok editing this post completely. Apparently, the two issues we've had where people were missing the .exe file were from downloading it via a .torrent file that isn't even listed as a download option on the first page.

Use the mega link on the first page. As there is no torrent file listed for this game on f95. Unless I'm missing something.

It's a bug. It'll happen sometimes, but rarely. Just start a new game, as that's probably the easiest solution.
