I wonder if anyone noticed it's been 4 months now since the last update, and we're only at the start of development cycle for Loser. Guess not, so that's a nice job on conditioning your players, Baal.
Of course we noticed, the dev let us know ahead of time. Since Loser had an extended cycle this time around to deal with issues that came up with that update, he gave his other game, Superpowered 2, an extended cycle as well.

There are criticisms you can make of the dev, but that isn't one of them. He works consistently and he is much better than the average amateur porn game dev at communicating what is going on with the development of his games.

But I guess the trendy thing to do these days on the forum is claim that devs are "milking" their patreons. There are certainly some devs that fit that description, but I think I have seen criticisms the dev is "milking" their patreons on pretty much every thread for a game that has been in development for a year or more.

Gonna second this. Baal has consistently released high quality and good content updates. The game mechanics aren't for everyone, but this is one of my favorites that I consistently come back to. You may want the updates faster (who wouldn't), but Baal is one dude and there is only so much bandwidth a single person has. I look at the dev cycle of 2 months per game as an "intention" rather than a set in stone rule. It's ready when it's ready and he never bullshits anyone.

He is active on discord, livestreams development and is very interactive with his fans. Pretty fuckin' good in my book. Also, the game continues to get better (one of the best - my opinion). Did I mention Diane?... Hottest, Mom, Ever... :cool:(y)

The Dev need to stop increasing the complexity of the game. People dont like grinding stats and the such. As it is now, its already quite grindy

Correction: Just SOME people don't like grinding and the such...
I want a game not another crappy Power Play presentation, that some people here, call VN...
I will concede some people like it. Maybe do a poll on it to see how the numbers goes but imo most people dont like to grind VN. If i wana grind i play mmo

Since you don't seem to know this... VN = Visual Novel.
Keyword: Novel
As in... book... something you read
Baal doesn't make VNs. He makes games.

Is it for everyone? No.
And it doesn't have to be.
Hell... It doesn't even have to be what the majority are interested in.
It just needs to interest enough people to keep the project going.
In terms of commerce, it's called a 'niche market'.

I know what is VN. Just maybe like what you said, this is not consider a VN then. No issues from my side. Just an opinion. Well, niche market payout usually aint that high.

For me is comforting to see there are still some developers that are looking to make a game not only for money. This is the reason of such inflation of crappy stuff on Patreon and here. Most of these, so called developers, are looking for some easy cash and nothing else. And of course this is the reason there are so many "milkings" and abandoned projects....
