Ren'Py Completed Milfy City [v1.0e] [ICSTOR]

[jefferz61]

I would like him to own up to his failings and either get on with it or at least give it to the community to finish.

My thoughts exactly... if he doesn't want to finish it, give it to someone who would be interested in doing so.

Maybe he is aware of this place and when he comes here to read what people are saying about him and it makes him depressed. WONDER IF this forum is responsible for his nervous breakdown and delays? Dun dun dun.

No, devs just stop reading if we take shit to heart too frequently. It's pretty easy to avoid this site as a dev.

 

[biggestboyo]

How close is this game to ending? Im thinking about playing it but don't want to waste my time if an update takes 1-2 years from a dev that makes over 10k a month and still works on it on their "free time"

 

[flameous]

are we have new pictures?

Hey, you forgot the 0.6d release. You know, when he "forgot" to include some animations in what was supposed to be the final animated 0.6 version. Miraculously, he managed to whip up the remaining animations in literally 1 or 2 days thus releasing the 0.6e version, so everything cool

 

[Johnysilver771]

6200 patrons, its insane. u pay for air guys. he can stretch this bullshit forever.

 

[Deleted member 1505330]

I don't think that's true.

While I'm not happy with his behavior, when I looked at his site he was getting nothing but trashed in his latest update post.

While I don't necessarily pity him, if we take what he said about personal issues truthfully and mix it with all the (correct) shit being thrown his way, I doubt I'd handle that pressure.

I don't want to excuse him, but I would like him to own up to his failings and either get on with it or at least give it to the community to finish.

Please, he's manipulating by posting Patreon updates just often enough to avoid getting flagged as abandoned and he doesn't pause payments. I can't believe there are still suckers who feel one bit of pity. He collects enough money that he could have hired a team to finish Milfy City if he were bored and he could have moved onto his new project. He's a bulshitting, scam artist. I cut my Patreon over a year ago with no regrets. Patreon is just another paypig scam and he's the equivalent of an eTHOT.

I agree with your analyses of ICStor but Patreon has brought towards us many great games that would have never been possible otherwise.
The art is to discern the art from the trash and pevious developer from the scam/con artists.
Well that's an art you need to learn the hardway though

That is most likely the case, because everyone is awful. I'm newer to the scene and saw his uploading and behavior issues and I've never given him a cent.

I guess for me I just feel bad that this is likely a no-win situation from him, since the one thing everyone wants from him he's unwilling to do.

Also I saw that he did a poll and the "move on to a new project" won. Who would choose that knowing how he runs projects?

 

[JohnL14]

Dude, imagine pay a whole year of patreon subscription for one update

 

[megaplayboy10k]

I think F95 should treat this as abandoned if it stretches out to 18 months without an update. We're at 10 months right now...

The problem is, he hasn't actually abandoned it. He definitely might not be working on it regularly, but he has to be acutely aware of the perception since his Discord is pretty much full of people asking about the release daily.

He doesn't engage with his audience at all, which I find really weird. I personally understand delays, and as a patron for like 1-2 months of his, I realized pretty quickly that engaging with his audience wasn't his thing. That alone for me is enough to shy away from a dev.

(Not to talk, as I have been avoiding F95's thread on the game I work on for a while now

I think it's fair to say, with no release and little progress over a year, that at least "on hold" seems like an accurate characterization. If he's working on it so infrequently as to make very slow progress, it's effectively on hold.

It's not even a year from last release? It seems like 10 years ago thanks to this thread.

 

[jefferz61]

Maybe, just maybe, he's been working on it all along and has decided rather than release it update by update, he's just going to release the final product, all finished and loaded with content. Maybe his silence is all leading up to a big reveal? It's just a theory.

Maybe, just maybe, Valve's been working on Half Life 3 all along and has decided rather then release any info on it, Valve's just going to release the final product as a surprise, all finished and loaded with content. Maybe their silence is all leading up to a big reveal? It's just a theory.

...right...
If you truely believe that after the shit he pulled in regards to 0.6 you must be desperate for this game to continue.
There was a time in between 0.5 and 0.6 when people did have that hope... but it was crushed by ICStor back than... now a days everyone should be aware that he is no longer invested in the project but earns to well to just let it die as he previously did
