Java Lilith's Throne [v0.4.10.7 Hotfix] [Innoxia]

Oh my god there's movement!

And the last blog post was... actually pretty good...

Am I in the right place? I feel like I missed a turn somewhere around albuquerque...

Edit: The thread hit 1000. That's what did it. If Inno had waited one more week before banning comments on the blog, we wouldn't have ended up in this mess

Substantial movement, she's been very active in the dev channel, like a dozen PR's pulled some that are >2 years old at that.

Whoa, did something happen to Inno? Did she hit her head? Are we really sure it's her? Together with her promise to finally stop giving deadlines, this looks really out of character.
Or can I actually be very mildly optimistic about future development?

I wouldn't start being optimistic until Inno releases at least like 2 updates within "relatively" short time from each other. Like 2 updates a month apart.

I asked this question to my magic 8 ball and it responded 5 times with variations of: NO.

I would recommend waiting for Inno to put out 2 or 3 more updates, in the next 2 or 3 months, before you start feeling optimistic about progress in this game.

The problem is that they are most likely in a rut of "I need to keep my patrons happy" but also "keeping them happy is stressing me out but my life is now dependent on their income".

No, she's in a rut of making promises she can't keep and then getting depressed about it.

She could probably get out of that rut in a month or two by just making her game. By just continuing the main quest.

The problem with that is that the game engine can't do it. It's an insane heap of spaghetti. The whole thing is going to have to be overhauled to support a finished main quest.

And that's what keeps her in the rut. She has to rewrite the whole fucking game to get into a position to move forward. And that's such a big job.

So she - when she works at all - just fiddles around the edges, making minor alterations to mechanics that were only ever intended to be temporary, adding fan-made new races, spinning her wheels while still in the rut.

The real irony though is that - given the level of delay currently - she probably could rewrite the while game from scratch in the time it currently takes her to do one minor update. At which point she could be set to just add content indefinitely.

Hey. Can't remember if this was always the case, but does Scarlett have some natural huge affection loss over time that isn't listed? I swear she could hit 100 affection before as a slave when I played like, years ago, but I can't seem to get her to stay positive now.

Apparently, every time I load my save it spawns Scarlett at Helena's harpy nest and auto sets her affection back to -40 as if I had freed her- then it loads her properly as my slave after a few turns and she teleports home but with the affection reset. Very annoying.
Dug around in the xml file a bit to see if I could find whatever was doing that but no luck- I'm not very savvy with that sort of thing. I won't hold my breath for a savior here, but if anyone does happen to know a way to fix this, I'd profess my eternal love.
