VN Ren'Py Abandoned Kingdom of Deception [v0.14.2.2] [Hreinn Games]

[Sevatar88]

Wonder how many paying complainers we would find here...

I have payed for it in the past, and ceased doing so do to what I at least feel is poor performance.

Plz stop the mods have locked this thread before for less ..........give your new boyfriend your number and you guys can text just not here

People will complain. Sort of happens after threads hits 100+ pages or so.

Nah, people don't like hearing criticism period.

The subject of the criticism doesn't have to be going down the drain for that to be true. It's just if people like something they'll feel personally invested in it and thus can take criticism as a personal attack, especially if it's less than constructive.

Also, as someone who has not been following the development of KoD, how are they a money grabbing scheme?

Money grabbing scheme is probably too far, It was mostly hyperbole for effect, but they are 100% stretching out their dev times for increased patreon cash. I want to say it was march that they announced the new update would be late march, people subbed, wasnt until late april it came out, with no update on the release until like, 4 days beforehand. I can't fathom an excuse for development times that long for mediocre content updates.

From the last several pages I can realize that:
1- The game is mediocre and don't worth.
2- Also the updates are getting worse
3- The dev doesn't care for his fans.
4- The dev is a milker and takes advantage of everyone.

So, Why so many posts of people who keeps coming back to say the same thing over and over again, crying and ranting on the same subject? Why don't move on? Is this the famous constructive criticism?

Or people just need to vent their stress?

Wow...it's almost as if various people have come to the same conclusions about the game and are communicating with each other on a public forum, but no I'm sure they're just the same people crying over and over again

What do you want people to do lie and circlejerk about how amazing this game is lol? When a game has problems people are going to talk about those problems on a forum related to that game. Also I've been reading thru the past few pages too and I havent seen anybody being downright hostile or "crying and ranting" as you say. Actually I take that back I do see a certain group of people being needlessly hostile towards those with criticisms for no real reason.

The homophobia is unnecessary and idiotic.

I see.

That's unfortunate.

I'm not homophobic chief that was a joke but I'm not gonna continue this conversation your clearly just one of those people looking to start arguments and I'm not for all that .....sorry if you were offended have a good day ^_^

 

[FlipFish]

At the end of the day I just want this game to get back on track because It's one of my favorites. And I think a lot of others feel the same way too.

 

[I Love These Games]

Damn they lost even more. Now they are below 5k, at 4.9k. I just hope they dont stop making the game and they speed up asap. Be optimistic as the guy befotr me said.

 

[acue]

I'm more and more getting the feeling that Sierra was the glue holding together any semblance of work ethic that Hreinn had. I'm hopeful that maybe they're just working on a massive update and taking their time but I have a bad feeling the next update will come out in August and have 5 scenes.

I think it's a few updates at this point that people had these hopes and they were always let down, so you shouldn't get your hopes up

 

[Kira999]

somebody know smth about new update?

 

[souldead341]

somebody know smth about new update?

Unless they've decided to put something in their paid discord server, no they've gone another 3 weeks radio silence, andf the comments on that post on patreon are mostly people asking for news at this point, so I doubt there is any. They might post something in a week or 2, but who knows at this point.

 

[I Love These Games]

It is sad to watch the game with huge potential die slowly..

 

[FatDragonite]

It's fine they are just taking their time .........I'm sure in the next 6 weeks we will get another update with 10k words 9 choices and 2 H scenes we just need to be a little. "patient" ....but all sarcasm aside they hit quite the rough patch I Got a feeling they will get everything moving smooth again after the next update.

i realy like your optimism but that has been happening for over a year so i doubt anything will change.They most likely gonna say that "we had some problems" and "now we found our rythm so next update will come quicker".The only way they will actually start doing work is if they start losing money or their patreons start complaining. What i dont understand is that the people on discord(who pay them) dont complain at all they accept what is happening, I mean how can you accept this farse and not complain.

They left a comment to answer all the "news" questions.

"Hreinn Games
We're still working on .9 and we will put up a new update post when we have more to share. At the moment we are still working on the assets - it's a reasonably large workload, but we hope that everyone will be as excited as we are to see all the new sprites and the new towns in action!"

So most likely, they'll finish around the end of august.
