And this is based off what? Are they reviewing F95 or patreon? Because as I repeat, he's released NOTHING since last time his page was down, theycleared him then, now suddenly they need to re-review "nothing new" to find nothing new since the last time?
I heard Patreon starting to look at f95 too, yeah I know that's fucked up but I remember someone saying about it like around March in one of a discord channel I can't remember which.

well they already are since 3rd party ic-patches are posted here and "recent" rule is that devs are responsible on those too.

I wonder how many of the "annoying" users have spent a fucking dollar to support the developer?

Quick gallery unlock, put unlock_galley into game folder and 00gallery into renpy/common, to be honest don't know if I needed to change the 00gallery file but couldn't be bothered reverting it

Yes, they do, a lot of dev knew since last year when the last big ban wave went through, and you see lots of missing Patreon links.

They also have banned dev's even when someone makes a patch as well.

Right click, then save as.

No dev who wants to maintain their support base on Any platform craps on their supporters this way.

If some SS user gets their knickers in a twist over the delay, they can always stop supporting the dev with $ and just take it for free like more than a few people here do, right?? ;)

This is a dev call, and no amount of whining on F95 is going to change this.

Strangely... there has been no hue and cry from the dev's SS supporters over this decision.

If there was this massive blowback - it would be On SS - right?

I have not seen the screen shots of the dozens and dozens of $ SS supporters saying that they will stop supporting the dev if he does not release by X date...

This just feels like 'certain' users complaining that they are not getting their free stuff when they want it.

It's like someone dumpster diving behind a restaurant then complaining because they are not getting the menu items they want in a timely fashion and How Dare the restaurant not cater to their needs!!

I'm looking forward to the next rev of MP when it lands! (y)

Until then, I have Plenty of other AVN content to tide me over.

Cheers!! :coffee:
Just curious, whats your mindset behind supporting Lewdlab?

Sure, sometimes he seems to be working on the game, but with the constant delays, excuses, small updates etc. everyone knows that he is just milking it for as much money with as little effort as possible, while probably laughing at his gullible supportes for throwing their money at him because of sunk cost fallacy.

Every so often, it's worth remembering that not everyone has the same opinion as you. Comments like "everyone knows" and "nobody likes" etc., are rarely accurate. And people are free to support whoever and whatever they like, for whatever reason they like. You don't have to understand their reasons for it.

(To pre-empt some of the usual responses, no, I'm not licking the arse of the dev, I am not a die-hard paid supporter, I'm just someone who enjoys this game and is bored of just hearing the same old "dev is a lazy milker" comments (here and on many other games) any time there is a delay between updates. It would be nice to see the game thread being used to discuss the game, rather than to attack the dev and/or the dev's actual supporters.)

My mindset is that of an adult.

I choose how I spend my money and I don't let the whining of takers on F95 change my spending habits any more than I let SJW dictate my charitable giving.

If I like a dev's creation, I'll support them with $ - perhaps it is supporting them monthly, or just a certain amount of $ (or a Steam purchase).

In a few cases, I've started supporting devs for completed AVNs as a thank you for their good work.

In the end - it's my $ and it's my say.

I already have a government trying to dictate my spending habits and investments (taxation and DEI, for example).

Why would I possibly allow a few anonymous users on F95 to dictate to me this way? :unsure:

Cheers!! :coffee:

This completely ignores every possibility but one - that one being that the only reason games get delayed is because the devs want more money, which they can get by deliberately stringing things out. I'd say that's more a "mindset of people like you" thing.

How about, instead, consider that a dev gets more supporters, more money coming in, he feels added pressure to make his game perfect so he doesn't let those supporters down, and he takes more time to make it as good as possible, which stretches the release timetable. Or he uses the extra money to fund additional resources, that allow him to add more to the game and make it closer to perfect, but by adding more or improving renders, for instance, it takes more time. Or real life gets in the way and slows things down unavoidably, because devs are real people too, and they probably have families, jobs, education, etc. Or... maybe you get the picture, maybe you don't, but what I'm trying to say is there are so many reasons why something like this can be delayed.

Sure, there are probably some devs who genuinely do delay things with the intention of getting a bit more money from their supporters, but I highly doubt that is the majority. I suspect most would be well aware of the assumptions that are always made, and the anger that is always levied at them, and would realise that it's not in their best interests to be what you'll call a "milker".

This dev? I have no idea about. I don't know any devs personally, so I can't say what side of any hypothetical coin they fall on. I'm just trying to give the benefit of the doubt, rather than immediately jumping on the bandwagon of "game is delayed, the dev is doing it deliberately, get your pitchforks out!"
