When the main team members inevitably retire because they finally got a better job or family issues, this will fall out
Just like every small group organization, YouTube channels, bands, startup projects etc , games are no different.
Its been 4 fuking years and the MC had yet to reach her kingdom or even have a real gameplan for her Revenge.

4 years and we still haven't even explored 20% of the map. Only way to fix this would be to change the payment method to updates only.
well, theyd at least have the balls to abandon the game at that point.
Shame, so much promise.
Wow, 4 years ? I like what I have seen till now, I understand that drawing takes a long time, but that is definitively something that makes one having a lot of doubts before thinking about sponsoring...
Well, the issue is more that they seem to have just kinda lost the idea of the plot and have mostly been stuck in the orc camp the entire time. Since the premise of the game is about Sabia reclaiming her place in the kingdom, there seems to be basically no actual progress towards that in the entire development time so far.

Because they are way too lazy in order to make new human figures, sadly this problems was here from start, all human's arts are retextured orc arts, big hands big dicks and big bodies... which make the whole "oh orcs are so big and intimidating" sound stupid...
Hmm, remember I am a newbie to this game, I discovered it +/- a month ago, played a bit and haven't played for a couple of weeks, but...
From the posts I have seen till now, if I understood correctly, it seem one problem is that they had a premise for the story (world with orcs, betrayed, survive in orcs camp, try to get back or maybe end up forever with orcs, the orc factions), but that they started the game before having developed further the storyline, and then had to improvise.

Nah the deeper issue is that they keep re-tweaking stuff, adding minor content, re-dedesigning this and that, adding more filler on X day while each update goes 1-2 scenes forward in terms of plot. Because they can, essentially, because at 795 patreons they're most likely raking in 1k each every month by doing the above "maintenance" work.
Kingdom of Deception might've aswell been a short called "Purple Hair Slut in Orc Gangbangs" at this point.
God damm move the story forward first, then come back and add "filler" content to where you believe it's lacking.
IDGAF about modular Sabia clothes for "stonks guys this maintenance thingy is going to let us produce a bigger content pipeline" when half your shit is just recolours.
how do you do the raids after the bandit camp i think it was, i kinda forgot tbh. but i got a quest arrow right above the mountains but when i click it i can only test formation. i did the tekrok quests.
There are none. They have literally just that initial raid in the game and have done nothing with that system since then.

What else is funny is that the map is literally 70% unavailable. Sabia isn't any closer to "getting revenge" or going back to her homeland than at the very beginning. They should just add a lust stat like in noxian nights where sabia gets hornier and hornier and eventually starts inciting things on her own, rather than her fucking everyone for "extra information" or some shit like that... So the story progresses faster if it's lower but has extra scenes if it's high..

Hahaha yet another post going like this:
"Yeah you see, we're late again cause it took us longer than we expected (lol good explanation) but now we've done laying on the groundwork for the next updates (so we could copy-paste art better to seemingly create more CGs while putting in less actual work and still be late lol) so they'll come out on time and faster than previously (we hope the least possible number of people remember than we've been saying the same thing for at least the last three updates to no avail lol). Here, have some of our new pasta, shut the fuck up and keep getting milked while appreciating it, losers lmao!
Cheers~"
Have always been saying, something like this should be punished by law.

I wish Nomo liked to draw more. Man has talent, but doesn't want to show it apparently. Its another project that had high hopes that dudes are just milking that cash as long as people pay them.
I honestly don't think not paying this lot would make them hurry though. Most of them North American I believe, the wages they are getting monthly would be a nice bonus monthly but according to the jobs they supposedly have in real life, I think they would just cancel, maybe change names or jump ship from each other, and start the same scheme somewhere else.

Although I am loathe to divulge personal information about people over the internet (keep in mind that I don't use social media or use the internet terribly much), from their discussions I have inferred that Ndsferrari is Brazilian, Monsinne a Briton and Nomo a North American, though I could be out on all counts.
In a non-stalkerish fashion, I do always wonder about game developers (or at least the ones we see / hear about on f95) day jobs: in particular when it comes to the Hreinn crew, how much time a week on average do they have to spend on Kingdom of Deception?
Regardless of "We donate (only) 'X' much so you should do more/less work", how much time do they feasibly have to work on these projects, with other duties and commitments in their lives?
Probably not a whole lot, but then again, why get in if you are not planning to work on it? To me that kind of screams this is a scam to get easy money for one months worth of month every six or seven months.
I used to be a donor for them back in the day when output was at least semi regular, but after the first big huge break I said f that noise.
People got a method, they still get paid for not doing anything for months. I get it. Its easy income.
If that is truly NOT your method, then you need to not make a game that last so long with so many moving pieces that you can't work on. Just do those little story releases with pics of Sabia and crew getting nailed. Maybe combine it in a serial fashion at the end.
