The game is as good as dead now.
Yes, he pulled a typical ICSTOR but public bashing just isn't on, people. We all know what happened and it's your right to feel disappointed or even angry at him. But in the interest further self-ego-stroking, just stop. Your ego demands this thread not be locked, which will happen if you persist in turning it into a cesspool.

This is very eye opening. Milfy City was the first game of Icstors that I was with from the beginning. I got into his stuff with incest story 1 and 2 and saw a great growth in the main character between the stories, though the games did not seem very fleshed out, the good bits where good enough to keep me interested. Now I know he has been doing this shitty hobbyist crap from the get go and I am a bit wiser for knowing. A tip for Icstor if you want to go above and beyond emulate NLT. This developer already knows the skeleton of the game before he gets it off the ground. Then as the weeks pass he adds flesh to the already solid skeleton. Clearly icstor starts with a skull and then starts adding smaller and smaller bones until we have a harlequin baby skeleton at the end.

Interesting, seems he’s going down the DPC route by releasing episodes. I wonder if that’s means his new game is a VN rather than a Point & Click game like this one. I’m quite intrigued to see what that might look like to be honest.
DPC is setting a gold standard right now with BaDIK; high quality storytelling, renders, and animations, updates released as episodes with lots of content (thousands of renders, hundreds of animations, free-roam events, mini-games, etc), characters with real heart and depth, and consistent release times (3 - 4 months).

If ICSTOR can emulate such a standard, even if it's just 4 or 5 episodes, then great. If not, well, maybe it's time to retire.

I just hope that those of you that made excuse and after excuse for the developer will now realize he played you. He was simply bored with the project but likes the money coming in so he lied and now realizes he needs to do something because the number of subscribers is declining enough to impact his money stream. No one should ever pay this developer another penny ever. He is nothing but a con artist.

Been reading over the last few pages of comments and I'd say that people are right to be annoyed with ICSTOR, I'm annoyed with ICSTOR. This game/VN, whatever you want to call it, does look great. ICSTOR is great at crafting gorgeous characters, renders and animations, but it's plain to see where their primary problem is: the story. Or, should I say, its lack of story.

The game lacks any connective tissue that links the events and characters with any kind of cohesion. The jumping off point for most of the characters is the embarassing incident of him being rejected by Celia, but then it just becomes a typical "fuck-em" quest game where the MC is now trying and succeeding to get into the pants of every woman in his life with relative ease in separate, disconnected stories with each of them. There seems to be no overarching narrative in the game at all which would obviously make it very difficult to discern what exactly you're doing and where you're going with this.

ICSTOR talks about "burn out", and whether that's true or just an excuse, I can see how someone would get burned out if they have no passion for what they're doing, and this can happen if you don't have an end goal in sight. If you don't know where your story is going and how it's going to end, then how can you possibly be excited and motivated to keep making a game that has no direction?

I'm sure ICSTOR has heard this all before, but craft the story first; know what you want it to look like at the beginning, middle and end, and then fill in the bits in between. Don't build the story towards the sex scenes, just build the story and then weave the sex scenes into the story where appropriate. Just look at what DPC does with BaDIK; the story has a nice, cohesive flow and the sex scenes work organically within it. We don't have a male MC doing various tasks over and over to gain a girl's favour with the end of goal of having sex with her, we have a character who is just living their life doing regular things and then opportunities for sex and various sexual interactions happen at specific points.

This is a winning formula and if ICSTOR can do this with their quality of renders and animations, they could produce really great games. But if they continue to suffer from "burn out", and have lost their passion for this work, then retire because we want devs who actually want to do this kind of work, not ones who think they have to do it.

This and Dreams of Desire were the first games I followed on this site. Atleast Linda and Sara are getting an ending. Wonder if 1.0 will be harem ending. Also kinda hoping those are repeatable scenes instead of getting credits and then back to the main menu since you know, its a sandbox.

PS: Wonder if BaDIK will take 1st place in the trending page now. I mean, it has more pages, more votes and more replies than this so I'm surprised it ain't #1 yet. It has less views though, but thats 3/4.

I just hope he ends the game decently, tho I dont expect much tbh. I said it before and I still think the same, icstor doesnt deserve the amount of $$$ he gets despite his stuff in milfycity being good, I hope more ppl realize it in the future projects he launches.

He should just have a Second-team that works on finishing Milfy City properly. while he starts a second game. He makes more than enough money for that.
He repeatedly wrote that he wants to hire people to work as a team while he sips juice in Bali. But apparently no one wants to work for him. Onyxdime are you okay? If he's holding you hostage, give us a hint and we'll call the police.)
could someone upload the walkthrough ?
Milfy City Walkthrough v0.6e
Honestly though, is this shit even legal?
Yes, people make their own decisions who to donate money to and who not. Patreon does not force to pay.
Even in the Steam there are unfinished abandoned games that are still being sold.
and the 70% of the game that Icstos said was ready?
was it all a scam?
Yes, and almost every he word, in every post, too.
Progress bar has always been an indicator that work is being done, but it never reflects real progress.
What happens with bob if I give away the real company names to the twins??
Nothing, after completing this quest, there will be no more content with Zuri and Suri. To see the available content with them, you must tell them the truth about the companies. Here's what happens if you lie: https://f95zone.to/threads/milfy-city-v0-6e-icstor.8012/post-2647882 (You will see other unique scenes, but you will not have sex with them.)

If this person had one tenth of the dedication the patrons has for them, then this would not be such a toxic relationship. The developer is abusing the supporters, but the supporters are so blinded by their dedication, it makes me wonder just what kind of spell are they under to not even have that bit of common sense left in them? The sad thing about all of this is that people think there is still hope for this game or the this developer, but that's just not the case. Maybe the patrons will one day stop caring and leave, or maybe they will still cling to a bit of false hope that this developer will have a change of heart and keep working on the game they love the most.

Some advice to all the other devs coming here to shit on Icstor - don't shit on other devs publicly. I'm not trying to defend the guy, it just makes you look unprofessional.
If you really want to bash someone, use an alt account.
They have every right to voice their opinions without having to resort to some scummy and shady stuff such as using "alt accounts".

Edit: Just to add one more thing. ICSTOR has proven to be the type of person that can't be reasoned with, so you guys want his attention? Hit him where it hurts. Stop the money flow, and he will bow down. What have you got to lose?
