Well, maybe we all got master tier trolled.Has anyone seen the actual post on patreon?
Hes not even slightly off his August 8th estimate. The guy is 2 months lateTo me time management is no longer the issue. It is dishonesty.
Can anyone after all the delays say to themselves they believe Icstor truly intended to release the update in August like he said on August 8th? But then things happend and now he can't give a concrete release date but somehow what was supposed to be done in 3 weeks now turned into 9?
I like the Lust Epidemic model. A release every two weeks on the exact same date. Two animated scenes and some extra content. Like clockwork.That's one way I looked at the comment. Plus, they may literally have missed some pieces - I would tend to doubt whole scenes (but who knows?) and are finding out only while piecing it all together and testing.
Either way, seems it's going to be awhile.
Then you'll get the pirates claiming this is clearly milking, etc. It seems unlikely that ICSTOR - given his history and desire to keep cash flowing - is doing that vs he simply got over his head on this release (and hit his typical project management skill limits) ... which he's done before.
Occam's Razor and all: ICSTOR has never been good at project management and this is turning into his shining example of that weakness. He really needs to put out only smaller releases, at the very least.
That is in addition to the work done from mid January to March (got 60% done in that time according to himself). And then starting again around the 20th of May.The thing is it's not a 8 months update, the devs worked on this update a few months ago after his burnout
That's pretty much my opinion, too. I mean, has it been as long as the last update since you guys have rubbed one out? Go release some of that pent up tension and frustration and relax a bit, yeesh.Actually it is funny. You assume anyone who criticizes the whiners MUST be a defender or fanboy of Icstor, when all I'm doing is pointing out how absurd you sound complaining about a free game that you somehow think your life has to revolve around. You come across like a porn addict.
In a way it's a compliment to the game/dev, that people enjoy it and want more. And, the one area where they kinda have a point, it's been almost a year at this point since the last update/release. Even allowing the guy to take a break, it's past time to release something when there are a bunch of people giving him lots of money every month.That's pretty much my opinion, too.

I understand being upset that the dev has failed on some promises, but being upset about it here isn't going to accomplish anything. If people truly want to show the dev that there's a problem, they need to cancel their Patreon subs. As long as people continue supporting bad practices, bad practices will continue to happen.In a way it's a compliment to the game/dev, that people enjoy it and want more.

I haven't seen anyone claiming to be a Patreon sub that's confirmed or denied this.I'm still not entirely convinced that it's real, AFAIK (admittedly I've skipped a lot of the pages in this thread as it's 99% whining) it's only been posted by a single source and everyone is just copy-pasting them.
If they were actually trying to "cram in as much as they can" on a 8 month update it would have around 7k renders and 100 anims
You are so fucking lost there isnt even a reason to bother with you tbh.Actually it is funny.

Icstor basically never communicates but before this he followed through and had a pretty rough deadline schedule which he followed. I don't need much more then that I'd rather have that then the walls of text and constant communications from Gumdrop that went nowhere.You started off on the wrong foot then
Pinkcake, Philly are nice devs. Icstor pretty much never was.
