The best thing to do is ignore stuff like that unfortunately it's part of a dev's life. Mind you we do have rules for reviews if you feel someone broke it you can report for inappropriate behavior. You have a good game so far you can see that by comments, other reviews, and also subs. Shake it off and use that as motivation to stick it to them.
- Thread starter badtimetales
- Start date
Unfortunately that's true.
And compared to other devs I've been lucky so far about getting BS comments. But I'm sure that will change soon.
It's not me loosing credibility.
You bet and thanks for your kind words!
That's a devs live.
Feedback (positive or negative) is rare, what you do is taken for granted from 99.x% of the people downloading your work.
This thread has 237k pageviews now. In five month.
Resulting in 15 ratings and 22 pages.
That is one reason why new devs give up very quickly.
And that I would like to second!
Every dev would like to hear "you are doing great", but many devs would like to hear constructive criticism too!
Just one example:
That guy asked if the time for creating the movies wouldn't have been better invested (in what?).
If he ever would have tried to set up and render an animation, he would know that a moving car is much more easier to set up and render than two bodies interacting.
Because that is a nightmare in Daz, without a working FK/IK physics, soft bodies and so many other things.

You are doing great
I do not comment on all games I like and play. First I am not a native English speaker, so I have to think a lot about how and what to say. Second I don't have the time and feel the need to write in every thread I follow, after every new release that I liked.
I comment when there is something exceptional (IMHO).
Your game is not so old and has a great number of positive reviews so far. So I think it is safe to say, that a lot of people like it even if they do not comment (like me until now
)
Outtakes due to a slightly changed script for the first scene of Chapter 3.1
One of at least two new characters in Chapter 3.1

Excited to see where this game develops. The setting is already pretty dark and the character development has been quite ominous.

Aehm, no, it's not the girls or the MC's birthday.
Just a tribute to one of my supporters.

I hope he likes what he sees and if not will tell me what I can do betterThat supporter is a lucky one...
I voted no, too. She's just annoying and the first sex scene can't even be avoided currently.

I voted yes because she isn't a bad character. She has an attitude and that's fine, she's a good hearted person.
On the other hand I can understand why some people wouldn't like her.
- She's pretty much forced on the MC. Forced romance can backfire.
- This is Isabella show. Alex can feel like a compensation until you reach you objective, Isabella.

I voted yes as well. While she might not be the reason I started this VN, she has certainly grown on me. It's also refreshing to have LIs that don't all look the same.

It's weird, Alex is infinitely more attractive to me than Isabella. Horses for courses, I suppose

I voted YES !!!
(for my own personal poll: "Do you like the whole work of badtimetales for their VN "Isabella - Dark Paths" so far?")
badtimetales, you're doing more than fine so far, seriously!
Alex is great, Isabella as well for me. Nothing feels off or forced or weird at the moment.
Your story is intoxicating and mysterious, your visuals are very well done (the transition sequences are top notch).
I really enjoy your work to the fullest!
So I THANK YOU for your hard work and persistent effort to create this because that can't be taken for granted at all!
But .... If there ever will be anything to complain about, be ensured that I will provide you with the most constructive criticism I'm capable of.

Looks like Isa needs a little bit more buildup.
Ups, I didn't want to give spoilers about Chapter 3.1

Alex's character is much more established at this point, whereas Isa is still a bit in the background. I know that's going to change in 3.1.
But it's not just that! Physically, Alex is much, much more my type than Isa, who is more of a generic tall blonde
