VN Ren'Py Abandoned Midlife Crisis [v0.34 - v0.1 Dark] [Nefastus Games]

[Immunity]

Do you train to sound sooo spoiled and entitled or is it a natural talent?

I just call it like I see it. If you filter via the abandoned tag on here, you get 144 pages at 30 games per page. That's roughly 4,320 titles left to rot - the majority of which SOMEONE took money for and had no intention of, or a plan, to properly finish.

Maybe this game will see the light of day again, maybe not. But what I do know for a certainty is that I'm sick of people half-assing their projects and abandoning them left and right - and that won't change so long as sycophants keep praising them at every turn and throwing money their way.

It takes 10 seconds to be a decent person, pop on, and post SOME sort of update. It's not hard. It's the bare minimum amount of respect you can show people that are literally giving you free money every month. When devs fail at something so simple, they don't deserve respect. In any other facet of life, shit like that gets you blacklisted. In the AVN space, people just turn a blind eye - hence why it's in the state it's in.

I am genuinely curious as to what his excuse will be should he ever pop back up though.

Dude, you are literally on a pirate forum, downloading games for free that other people develop using money from supporters that did support.

That means you are also taken those supporters money and the developer time for granted and free.

You are "sicked of half assing their projects".. what was your contribution? Download it here without consent and complain.

What a hero!!

Before you start throwing comments about others' behaviour, look yourself in the mirror.

And, if you have so much problem with abandoned tags, go and BUY finished games.

Now that is some entitled crap if I ever heard any!

You do realize that the last time Nef disappeared for this long he nearly died and was in the hospital right? Or doesn't that qualify for your advanced and superior judgement?

Very nice

But then the pseudo-arguments will go down the sink.

You use LOGIC?! Here?! Have you learned nothing in your 5 years?

Can't argument with that. This statement may or may not come near my own opinion.

As from such comments, I usually assume that a dev must develop the exact game you want, who care about a dev vision or his financial supporters, with of 10h updates, again only count what you define as update, at least each month and never have break, holiday or even worse RL being a bitch to the dev.

But you argument with one that compare the story of Grandma's House with the one of Midlife Crisis. Would be the same as comparing Mostly Harmless (fifth instalment of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy) with David Beckham biography.

You know I love both GH and MC

And Beckham was a great player and Douglas Adams wrote some of the funniest books in history

I'm easy to please I guess

I do. As you know that I've played and still play both.

From what I know about Beckham, yes. Still, I wouldn't compare (although I haven't read) his book with one from Douglas Adams.

I don't see what is wrong here. Same, as I don't see if one don't like a game. Yet, I never understand, the ones that come into the all you can eat for free candy shop, that the zone is and then complain to about some candies that they don't like or that the shop don't have the candys they want.
If you're a paying customer that may be different story, but even then, if you go into a candy shop and complain that the don't have vegetables it only shows your lack of understanding.

free money

lol

When I was going through my divorce while my house was flooded and I could barely move due to health and mental problems, that's exactly the kind of post who made me go "You know what? Fuck this."

Did you just even CONSIDER comparing an athlete's autobiography (no matter how good a player) to one of the funniest series of Sci-Fi (or detective) books ever written?

Talk about comparing apples to drill bits ...

Not to mention the biography of Beckham is most likely written by ghostwriter. That's how it usually goes with biographies.

 

[HonkaX2]

why its always the good 1 that got abandoned...

i came back to check on this game and i see abandoned...disappointed

 

[HonkaX2]

that amount of time of radio silence does count as abandoned to me. whats your problem?

people get butt hurt really fast and feel the need to "clear the air" lol

No, I've compare comparing MC to GH is like comparing Beckham biography to the fifth and worst volume of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy.

Okay, so now you're just insulting everyone all at once ... how rude

Even if my intent wasn't to achieve this?
Trying to be an evil mastermind and you fail. Try to not be an one and you fail.

Just found out the game was abandoned

 

[Jstforme]

I wonder if the dark version of the game that was released a while back got so much more attention, and such a boost to subscribers that the Dev realized he would be a millionaire by now if he just went the dark side instead of staying on the vanilla side of the spectrum. But his pure heart couldn't bear the mistreatment of pixels, and fell into a state of depression as the answer to his success was to turn the limp noodle into an actual spine...and couldn't do it.

really though, it's a shame but did any of you really see any end point to this story? Everything works out just fine no matter how fucked up the situation, no real drama, just all around acceptance. While it makes ones heart warm, it's not going to sustain any real audience.

maybe this isn't a VN for you?
maybe you'd enjoy more some other VNs?

Only on F95, we don't have any RL confirmation if it's actually have been abandoned by Nef.

Yes this game has no drama, but this game is a slice of life not realistic where all the girls just agree to a harem, I can understand the girls sharing the mc with one or two people but all just jumping on him doesn't make sense, but this game has damn good characters and each has their own kink's and that's what makes this game fun and will have a good future and is worth the wait, this game as it goes on makes the characters interact with one another and makes sense, I mean the threesome with Sandra and the prego has a realistic scene where she breakdown and feels like she is a homewrecker and where the wife comforts her is quite good, this game can't go too serious otherwise the game won't be to fun to play.
