They didn't even bother replying, too. So I kinda figured out what kind of people I'm working with. From there, I knew these folks aren't the ones who opened themselves up easily unless they are really in a pinch.I wouldn't hold your breath. I'd been supporting the game since 2017. I've also been running a couple erotic online roleplaying campaigns for 4 years. I have offered more than once to help write for the game. I even offered to work for free.
It's a pity. The support of community enthusiasts always helps the project develop.I wouldn't hold your breath. I'd been supporting the game since 2017.

i agree on you on the latter part but i do think that having the community dictate the progression of the story tends to ruin it and from alot of games that allow the community to affect major plot direction of the story it tends to go either 2 ways, one it gets soo diluted to please a mass audience that it gets boring (i do think that KoD is one of the games that is heading this way) or 2 that it develops major feature creep like promising way too much and not progressing the main plot to fullfill said promises (which i think KoD also suffers from this)It's a pity. The support of community enthusiasts always helps the project develop.
I think there are only two possible explanations for the lack of response. KoD developers may simply not understand the value of working with an audience (which I personally doubt, given that they use Patreon).
Or the creators of kingdom of deception are no longer interested in developing their own game and the logical conclusion of the story. Considering this project simply as a long-term source of profit. No passion or interest in the game itself.
I didn't say anything about how community should dictate the progression of the story.i agree on you on the latter part but i do think that having the community dictate the progression of the story tends to ruin it and from alot of games that allow the community to affect major plot direction of the story it tends to go either 2 ways, one it gets soo diluted to please a mass audience that it gets boring (i do think that KoD is one of the games that is heading this way) or 2 that it develops major feature creep like promising way too much and not progressing the main plot to fullfill said promises (which i think KoD also suffers from this)
people helping is still the same thing more less as its them influencing it in one way or the other though and there are better solutions to it like setting actual viable goals and fulfilling those goals in a feasible schedule thats actually why i agree with the assessment that the devs feel like they don't care anymore and that this is only a cash grab for them nowI didn't say anything about how community should dictate the progression of the story.
The point is that it would be nice if developers paid attention to enthusiasts who want to help them make the game better. Especially when everyone sees the obvious drop in the level of the story script, the lack of new ideas and game mechanics.
No, i think you missed the most likely case: management issues.It's a pity. The support of community enthusiasts always helps the project develop.

Lynn's face is completely different than before. Props for Nomo for going back to where their art started.
Thanks for sharing! To clarify this is bonus content and not ingame art.

Why?? This is honestly quite shocking to hear. I mean, props for you to support something, but this one? There are so many more deserving teams and underappreciated solo devs out there that could benefit more of your support and be thankful and appreciative of it while also posting progress reports and delivering content as quickly as they can -- unlike Hreinn Games. I gotta believe that you know that's true.I wouldn't hold your breath. I'd been supporting the game since 2017.
All valid points.Why?? This is honestly quite shocking to hear. I mean, props for you to support something, but this one?

Look, I'm not trying to denigrate your choice here; I respect you as a fellow Zoner. I myself have supported them -- in the past; not now however. The way they are now -- how they conduct themselves and the "progress" they make on KoD -- simply doesn't justify them getting anyone's financial support until they shape up. I'm about given up on them, to be honest. They haven't earned the rights to anyone's hard-earned money, in my opinion. They have done a fine job of poisoning the well on the other hand, and they need to work on clearing that mess up first.
I mean, wow, you've been supporting them since 2017? Jesus Christ, I feel like I need to give you some kind of achievement, or somethin'. ^^" I don't know, I guess I'll pray to the gaming gawds to bless you for your undying support of a game that's been through development hell... Don't you ever feel like you're just being milked at times though? *Sighs* I HOPE YOU WIN THE LOTTERY AND HAVE NOTHING BUT HAPPY DAYS AHEAD OF YOU!!! ;]
*Just point of fact, I went with the assumption that you've been supporting them financially all this time. If that's not the case, then... I guess this post is kinda moot, lol. ^^'
Unfortunately, Kingdom of Deception is quite unique. I mean western style of drawing (I hate anime), wild raсeplay with orcs, strong and interesting heroine (at least she was before the last update), as well as a good storyline and game mechanics (they were also in this game earlier).Why??

Yeah, they missed an opportunity to show us some Sabia x Lynn, let's hope we live long enough to see the story progress to that pointWith the current rate of updates, it doesn't look like we'll get to the war line with Lundar any time soon. If we get there at all ...
Fuck, I've waited for so long already to see Lynn fucked and humiliated, literally years.
A fucking shame but better than nothing.Thanks for sharing! To clarify this is bonus content and not ingame art.
Left foot.
You need to bullshit around for several days until the next event triggers somewhere.Not sure why but I can't advance my story past the second Kira quests where you talk to Tijiana and give her back her horse, the waypoint is pointing at the bandit camp but there's nothing left to do there. I've looked over the walkthrough over and over again and I cant advance to the prison quest and the second part of Ohnshakers ritual. Can someone please help. The only thing i can really interact with is the tentacle monster at Kia's but it says "Went the same as last time, you should try again later.:"
