Sure, all that might be factual, but it's still ironic. Don't worry so much, assuming the creator doesn't ragequit, I'm sure other builds will release some time in the future. And honestly, if a creative is that temperamental and easily butthurt, the chances if it ever reaching completing were nearly nil in the first place.
You are off topic and this is some strawman argument like the other that like to be pull out, and this isn't if the dev rage quit but rather if he get trouble with china law which are very strict and basically watching all their citizen. Their is also the fact he doesn't other to steal his work and start scamming people which i also provide how the moment 3in1 mod got an latest release it was already being sold online as a new game.
Finding the creator on the chinese social platform and basically forcefully be active member to get level to download or do anything on their site is really hell which can also raise possible red flag for ban if they believe your account has a possible VPN.
Let make this simple, Do you want more from the VIP mod? Yes, more of it will come in the future but it has to be hidden until then, If it get more exposure the dev will stop working on it as mention above in getting trouble or see people abusing it in other way.
Do you want more from the VIP mod? No, then leaking would be the effective way to kill any future development of it and as other comment mention breaking the dev rule for the distribution to play test the game version.
In case people don't know this but china people use their own self built VPN to by pass their country wall and does know about f95zone.
You might not believe it but on BiliBili their are video ranking top f95zone upload game to play. And believe it or not beside steam or buying a copy from kagura game, they got to f95zone to access with quick translation under other site.
Someone once posted about how China does not know about f95zone and that is like mega false, China people often use VPN just to search for anything good outside of their country given how very limited their search power in how much it is being control and censor.
Last about your strawman and people using this as we are complaining about piracy, which is NOT ONLY FALSE but the dumbest way justified this upload. No one is against piracy here on this site but rather the fact someone is trying to destroy a development of a mod just for attention.
Imagine any creator game dev/artist gave out some sketch/early release of game but said don't release until they believe it is ready and if word got out, he would stop working on it. if you want more from this creator you would do as he say and not leak it, but someone say No fuck this dev/artist so I will leak this game/art just so I can get attention which will also kill the mod development which is the best possible move so I can justified my upload bc I kill mod.
Given the china has strict law and surveillance this is saying yes let expose this person which can lead some investigation to maybe lead to arrest to this guy who is making the mod.
like shirakami who make genshin impact porn. Lucky f95zone has basically archive his work but even after the artist release from jail, he won't be able to create any future work.
If you don't know anything about "china problem" or honestly how far they go then do not post any future comment about it.
These are basic research that no one want to do but here I am providing the information which I am pretty sure more future comment won't read and try to fan the drama back up.
I do apologize to f95zone mod for this off topic post but even after some people writing an summarize post about the problem some of these moron still don't understand and want to fan the drama back up when it is shut and close case problem. Their might be more future troll post which I apologize but I hope this would stay up as an exception that explain the topic a bit.
