Welp, apparently Nomo's in ill health, has been keeping it secret, and there's just no update release plans now. From their Discord and Patreon:
Hey everyone.
We're still working on KoD and have a lot of plans for the characters and story. Unfortunately Nomo has had some personal issues recently and has needed an ambulance a few times in the past few months, but is generally very private and doesn't like to go into stuff too much.
Due to that, we don't currently have an estimation of when we'll release the next bit, but rest assured it's being worked on. If you've supported in any of the months since we had the initial estimation you will have access to the update as soon as it's ready.
We sincerely apologize and hope for your understanding.
Well, long term health problems are real and serious, so I wouldn't dismiss it so easily, but I also find hard to believe considering they have been lying for some years now.
It's like that fabula: a kid screaming wolf everytime, and people run to save him. But it's only a prank. One time a wolf really come, he scream, nobody comes thinking it's another prank, kid gets eaten.
Hard to believe ANYTHING Hreinn says at this point. It can be true, but people can't be blamed to doubt this, considering they have been lying to justify delays for the las couple YEARS. If he was an open dev, not lying, not making a fool of his constumers, etc. If he REALLY had an health issue and came open about it, I'm sure people would donnate more ONLY for him to get medical care.
Being honest ALWAYS have more perks, but they choose the lying and deceiving path, now the majority doubt there's an wolf (and they can't be blamed).
I dont know why people still complain about this game. Its like a rage loop. all this was funny at page 400. page 600? I think we all know who and what the devs rare.
When people are frustrated, there are 2 escapes (Psycologically speaking, you can talk to any Psycologist and they'll say it):
1-Focusing frustration in one hobby and vent off
2-Complaining to let it out.
Simple like that
Holding frustration to yourself is bad for your health. Some people on this forum prefer to vent off here, where the devs might MAYBE see it (probably at this point they don't care).
You looks like different, when you're frustrated you do another thing, some let it all out and feel better. This forum is for dicussions regarding Adult Games, so I personally don't see a problem.
