I had such high hopes for this game once.
Yeah, Neve, Sabia and her family are the only reason I play this game.Cool.... does anyone care about Yiva?
holy shit, almost a year for just this.according to what's on discord, the three variants of the shaman scene are all that are in this 0.13pt1 release
2018 was a good yearI had such high hopes for this game once.
Because its not ready. They had several patreon updates where the update was "coming this month," then that changed to "oh we decided to add a third quest and the cg for it is really big and complex so its taking a while." You might think that this means that 2/3 quests are done and ready to go, but this episodic release thing of theirs runs contrary to that. They've probably been sitting on their asses twiddling their thumbs for the past 9 months. If there was ever any doubt as to the fact that Hreinn outright lies to its supporters I don't think their can be any doubt now. A 2 quest update was supposedly ready in January, and now it took them three weeks to implement one quest since their update post at the end of May.I hate to be that guy but why are they releasing the second part of the update in a few days why not all at once?

Alright, then. Let's see if they stick with this plan.View attachment 1882714

G'day stranger!
They're releasing things in an episodic fashion in an effort to reduce hemorrhaging of new content.
Regardless of whether it works or not, I've never been too crash hot on episodic releases for a number of reasons, so even though I tried the Yvla 13.0 as soon as I could, I'll be waiting for the entire release before playing again, because otherwise to me, each release will (seem to) have just one new thing.
It's borderline abandoned at this point.This game still going? Is it worth it still or is it still...controversial?
The writing in this last patch is easily, by far, the worst I've seen in anything these guys have ever put forth. Either I need to replay the game and refresh my memory to how poor the writing really was or they hired someone new to... write... some last second drivel to act as a placeholder for actual scenes. That or the writer is recovering from a stroke. If that's the case, I wish him/her/they well.
"Sabia could see the look of shock flash on Ylva's face. But only for an instant..." Dafuq? Shock flash? Tell me they didn't outsource this to someone in a land far, far away.
"I have studied exensively, and am well versed in all spring-lore." Uh, okay? Everyone appears to be at least thirty IQ points lower than last the last patch. Maybe it's just me? Am I going crazy? Where the hell am I?
Or how about immediately after Ornshakar explicitly implies they will be both raped while trying to dispel the wards, Sabia quips:
"Honestly, it feels like a letter of the law thing to me"
Truly a watershed moment, I stand in awe of this patch. I haven't managed to actually get to the scene yet, but hopefully it keeps the LOLWTFBBQ coming!
well, he is not wrong, the author have no reason to listen to anyone, even their own patreons, as long as the money keep coming, only their patreons can really do something, but funny enough, is not complaining, the only way to see some change at this point is to stop supporting them, if the author see the money going down every month that is when they will do something, although at this point they most likely just drop the project, wich would be better, cause at least the milking will stop, by the end there is something that have allways been true "speak with ur wallet" now, nobody stop u from making a critic, but is not worth it. The game did have a lot of potential,but now even the CG´s quality is going down.That's like saying you can't criticise a movie if you didn't buy the ticket. This is a forum , it's meant to be used to voice our opinion .
Because for them a few days mean a few months at best.I hate to be that guy but why are they releasing the second part of the update in a few days why not all at once?
