Getting kinda annoying to see pages and pages of people complaining. Tbh afaik most people here don't even pay for the game. Even if it took a long time you can simply play other games or you know, get a life.
Over this past year I've barely gotten time to play the games on here cuz I've been dealing with a lot of shit and Icstor is probably going trough something similar.
Now, for the people who support the guy I completely understand their frustation, that said if they don't like how the projects going they should simply stop supporting him. That would not only be great for their wallets but it's probably the best way to show the dev what you think.
I don't really like how the game is going, not because of the animations or the delays, I still think this game looks great and is doing a lot of stuff right. I'm just hating the writing and story, Icstor can't write loving couples for shit and it shows. Ill still play the updates though, I'm already invested in the characters and it's not like I'm supporting him every month.
I hear ya, its annoying as hell. And it really shows how our Society works nowadays. Roughly 1 year ago ICSTOR was THE most mentioned name in this Forum regarding "good" games. You got the feeling that anything that guy touches turns into gold or some shit. Thats how some people praised him. Fast forward a bit, mix in some RL problems or whatever he has to deal with.
And just look at this Thread, even if he brings an update, now that he had his hickup, everything is shit. Just count the posts that make fun of some of the animations he made. Suuuure their arent the best, but people are already on the bandwagon that is beating ICSTOR with a stick, at every chance possible. And given that the majority here doesnt pay for anything and just pirate everything they can get their hands on, we are actually complaining that the free stuff we get is not GUD enough.
But the worst people in this thread, are the hypocrites. That go on a rant about how ICSTOR is a douche and how he steals money from Patreons. Meanwhile being in a Pirate forum that steals games from people, so literally Thiefs pointing their fingers at an alleged Thief, for allegedly doing something, that they all have done serveral times over Years. But hey, there is for obvious reasons, no bandwagon pointing fingers at people for stealing games from Devs that put in hard work
What im trying to say is probably this, most of those who are currently HIGH like literally HIGH on the hatetrain right now.
Get a grip, actually think about what you are doing before you beat a Dev with stick whenever possible. Especially when the reason behind it is something like an update that didnt meet your expectation. This isnt the Patreon Forum, we are filthy pirates that steal games from devs to play them for free. We are the fucking last people that are allowed to get angry when a game isnt going the way we thought it would go. Because in the end, we didnt do shit to support the game in the first place.
PS: I know i know, there will be now serveral people who were or are allegedly Patreons of this game. Who will tell me how wrong i'm bla bla.
Just to be clear, i will not believe anyone who claims to be a patreon of this game. Just like literally no one believes ICSTOR to have RL problems.
And just like ICSTOR there is literally nothing you can do to proof me you are telling the truth. So deal with eeet
