The issue is trying to get the game to play nicely with Java in Linux -- which i still have not done and I'm beginning to wonder if it's worth it.
I read through the rest of this back and forth and I feel your pain. Got this working on my old linux box, but I'm still trying to remember how tf I did it. Rather than go through another month of that again I just use a windows vm and installed java 8 on there.

I wouldn't recommend buying a game that's only 1/8th completed after like six years.

Definitely not in a continual way.

We don't need a porn star citizen.

If you want to give money for what you've already gotten, go buy a single month on substar and then immediately cancel it. Play what you "bought" until you're bored, then leave for a few years. If you come back in like... two or there years you'll have a nice content update to enjoy lol

yeah sorry to say but this would be the biggest waste of money you could ever have. the game isn't even close to being done, the customisation involved is all flavour text that means nothing, and there are still placeholders in the first area for quests that should already be there. then there's the problem of memory usage, and this is all without mentioning the fact that the game has hardly changed in the last three years. so, yeah, i doubt this would get anywhere near steam. if you want a game like this but much better with regular updates on steam i would suggest Corruption of Champions 2.

People already mentioned the technical issues...
But would steam even sell games with rape?
I don't see why not given Overgrown and Claire's Quest were accepted (made by another developer whose name I forgot, you can find them here). Both games have (MC) rape, CQ in particular has that plus shota and bestiality... unless they cut off certain fetishes just to make the cut to Steam.

(I apologize if this post gets doubled, F95 has been running like ass for me for the past few days with a ton of connection issues, data errors, extreme loading times and "maintenance" posts...)

Looks like update 4.2.5 has been delayed. I want to say I'm surprised...

I want to, but I'm not.
And this next update was supposed to be just testing and implementing someone else's work. That and some generic shop content that's taken like three months to write at this point.

But hey, Inno called it. The next post was a delay. She must have already had another vacation on her calendar.

ah, good ol' Inno; knowing exactly how to let people down weeks in advance before actually letting people down. a success story more gripping, there has never been.

*cough* Evenicle exists *cough*

yeah, that game's got ridiculous amounts of rape in it and that's being sold on steam like no one's business. thanks to our lord and saviour SsethTzeentach, Evenicle has been seen as nothing less than the holy grail for rape games on steam. truly, a better, brighter future we could never find.

Honestly, these delays don't really bother me as much (aside from having something to talk about). At least she now warns people to take her estimations with a grain of salt. Most of the time. Which is better than it used to be...

It's only when she writes "I will definitely, assuredly release this update by X! No more delays I swear!!1!1" and then proceed to miss the date anyway that annoys me.

Decided to pick this up again for the weekend, updated from v3.20 and started over but now I'm running into the "can't import custom character art due to AccessDeniedException" thing again and can't remember for the life of me what the workaround was. Searching is no help either, unless I'm just not coming up with the right search terms. Was it something in folder settings?

Probably something dumb like running the game as administrator, because this seems like the kind of game that would require that. And also the kind of game I would absolutely not trust with administrator rights on my computer.

The weird thing is, I still have my 3.20 in another folder. That can import art just fine, and as far as I can tell it's not set to run as administrator (which I find encouraging as I would definitely prefer not to do that). What did past me do to it? Who knows!

I guess I can always go back to the Strive games when I get tired of this again though, so it's not a huge deal.
