.. I thought 0.4 keeps getting pushed back because the fields content needed to be finished and put in? She's barely started?? Or is she just terrible at wording things?

No... you got it right. She was also saying in older blog posts that as soon as she would be finished with the rework of Nyan’s romance quest, she would begin working on the Fields content. God knows what she has been doing since she stopped working on that bloody catgirl.

Just because McDonalds exists doesn't mean I have to like it or eat it.
it's been a bit and i'm trying to finish quests in the main story and pick up sides as I can, but i've been busy af (i run 3 ttrpg campaigns, and play in 2 others, on top of work, trying to beat nioh 2, etc etc etc). I don't remember clearly if they switched actual jobs but i'll try to pay closer attention in the new save on 3.19. I honestly hope you're right, and it's just a more vague selection (which I would personally call a design flaw tbh) function than other slave management or trainer games.

"Not as much content as we hoped for"? I was under the impression that we were getting just the random encounters. How in the hot diggity fuck do you deliver less than that? Okay, I know how. You do it by not working on the update for a year and then scrambling to push a premature fetal alcohol syndrome baby of an update out the door once people start running out of patience.
Well, at the very least, there is no mention of extracurricular content getting in the way this time around.
I should look at how the event system is written. I wouldn't be surprised if it's not at all modular. She was probably hoping she could rework the event system to change based on the location so that she could reuse all the old event code with new initial text based on the location to make up for the fact that no work has gone into the new locations events yet.
It's how I'd do it. But then again, I'd go with an easy design from the start. And I mean that literally, because it's pretty similar to the exact system I used from the start lol
edited a bunch to clarify...

most of the characters you encounter during the main quest have pictures as references. outside of them and arcade shopkeepers, thats it. no, your character does not have any pictures if thats what you're also wondering.
Holy shit we've somehow evolved past no progress into losing progress. We've gone negative!

some characters have art if you hover over their name on the right side of the ui (and there's a mod on the discord that fills in other named npcs) and items have art but the game is mostly just text.
Lol this game has a never ending cycle.
Makes promise ----> Silence for Weeks ----> Return with apology and excuses ----> Promises to communicate more ----> Silence ----> Announces delay ----> Minor release that falls short of promise ----> Makes promise
I never understood why developers like this are so bad at development? Not just for this game. A porn game shouldn't take a decade to finish. I'd understand if it was just some side-project they were doing for free. Fair point. It would be a hobby. But when you start pulling thousand-plus monthly donations on top of claiming to work on the game full time, it is pretty sad.
Hell, people wouldn't even be made if the game took long to develop if at least they were consistent. Fenoxo milks his donors for everything they are worth, but at least his released are consistent.
If Inno was actually working full-time, there should be no reason there couldn't be a release every two weeks. 80 hours is plenty of time for a new feature in a game like this. 90% of the effort is writing, not coding.

Because it's human nature. Once someone discovers that they can get away with something, they are much less likely to shy away from that then we'd like to think simply on the principle that it's wrong, immoral, or unethical. For all our worth, people are inherently vulnerable to taking the path of least resistance even at the cost of it being detrimental to others it impacts. Especially in this day and age, developers with less experience than a professional dev working for a company can make plenty for less work than a typical job would require. You work you're own hours, can't be fired, don't need special training or college, don't have to answer to really anyone but yourself, it can't be shut down by your government for being deemed "nonessential"...what part of that occupation isn't more desirable that a typical 9 to 5?

Not to absolve amoral content creators in any capacity, but this whole shitty situation is only sustainable because people who pledge money to porn games are:
1) Bad with managing their money, because "it's only a dollar/five dollars/ten dollars a month, so it's not a big deal if updates are slow and contain little content; I just want to show my support".
2) Thinking with their dicks, because they don't want to risk that a game that hits their buttons crashes and burns, even if it's obviously a patron-milking scam and the creator is making more than their monthly salary by doing nothing.
When you leash in a couple thousand people who think this way, congrats, you've escaped the rat race - you can live relatively normally while doing an absolutely miniscule amount of work each month to prevent pledge numbers dipping too low.
To be fair, there's also very little incentive to work harder because you know your extra effort is going to be pirated anyways (like how, even if you follow a model where public updates are just delayed but the game is available for free, your backer releases will still be shared).
So why not just do the minimum to appease the ones willing to line up and get milked? Having your stuff pirated in this case wouldn't affect your bottom line, and it minimizes the value of what the pirates make off with.
Crowdfunding is just an all-round terrible format that created and maintains the current situation, and unfortunately it isn't going to change since the platform also gets a cut, so they quietly encourage this shitty practice.
If the platform ever moves, it won't be to help patrons. It will only be if there's a big enough scandal to hit the mainstream news and damage their image.
Edit: And also, real jobs are shit too. It's understandable if some people want to escape from that hell, even if it means riding on the backs of other, more gullible (and horny) people.
Edit 2:
The situation is so messed up on so many different fronts, that any party that tries to be the morally upstanding one is only going to end up the loser.
Currently this is the patrons: they line up and pay even though they could pirate, and so they get milked for no worthwhile reward.
1) If the pirates switch to being patrons, they too just get milked for no worthwhile reward.
2) If the platform steps up to ensure patrons get their money's worth, the platform simply loses money (and probably content creators who shift to a less restrictive platform). Patron goodwill towards the platform means nothing since they're still only going to pay for content.
3) If the creator works harder to ensure patrons get their money's worth, they're just doing extra work for money they'd have gotten anyways. Only the patrons (and pirates) gain in this case: a better product on a faster release schedule (and in the case of the pirates, still free).
And of course, real jobs aren't going to get any better because it's all about employee exploitation and maximizing profits. There are enough people clamoring for jobs that they don't need to change anything, even if it drives a bunch of people towards dubious "alternative jobs" like crowdfunded porn.
