It'll be a huge change. You'll now be getting half the material in twice the time!
attitude and work ethic is not a measurement for ammount of content though... while I agree with you that it's unlikely that we'll see any significant Updates for Milfy City in a long time to come.
this trend is already visible as is so it would only be a prove of previously (and multiple times) stated facts.

ICSTOR sounds like he has ADHD...in the real world, "I got bored and gave up" is generally not a viable approach to professional projects(if you're getting paid for it, it's a professional project).
And until Patreon actually enforces a requirement for completed content you will always have people like ICSTOR who half ass everything they do, collect a lot of money because people have fucked up fetishes, and they will continue to never finish anything to a satisfactory degree. Patreon has enabled an entire generation of content creators who act like they're fulfilling a creative vision when the reality is that they're just barking to a crowd about this new tonic that will cure all that ails 'em.

Also, it's not ADHD. That's treatable. ICSTOR suffers from delusions of grandeur and a short attention span. If he wasn't extremely lucky he'd be standing behind the counter of a 7/11 drooling on the floor between customers because he's too fucking lazy to close his mouth.

...wait was ICStor an American now?... cause that strangely sounds very similiar to a certain "celebrity" of theirs :sneaky: :devilish:

Noooo ICSTOR :FacePalm: Just when I thought he was choosing the right path by starting smaller games he goes right back to lying to his patrons (and probably himself). He can't make 2 games at the same time. He still doesn't enjoy working on MC and this won't change by adding a second game. That's why you don't let patrons make business decisions for you, they don't know the craft or the business, they have no experience, all they hear is "you can have 1 game or 2, which one you prefer?". When you want the money but don't want the job anymore you hire new people, that's it, then you start your new project (or just relax somewhere and let other people do the work for you). I give up.

It's official: his patreon supporters are basically crack babies that were dropped on their heads by their nodding out moms. What are they smoking? On what planet do they think they'll get an update on MC if he's working on two games? He can't even work on and finish ONE game yet they expect him to do two? This is basically simp behavior.

Worst part is we never actually got to smash Sara, no threesomes, the pregnancy route,etc. It left off at the biggest part of the story.

After reading comments for a few days, I've still come to the same conclusion on how he can turn this around. Hiring a team to help him, or hell, a project lead. Someone to give deadlines, solve problems, and encourage others to make sure the product is complete or atleast on track with updates.
Unfortunately, the initiative would have to come from the outside. Someone wanting him to hire them to help with development, not him finding people.

Feels like a lot of people here have yet to work a job yet, there is such a thing as exhaustion caused by doing the same thing over and over again, that being said Icstor clearly lost his inspiration as far as MC goes thus the constant delays and need to move on to something else in order to stay interested in his work.

As far as the two games at once thing, the updates will have to be a lot smaller in order to take into account people liking one game over the other and to keep both titles relevant to his patreons which is something that NLT does, so it's possible.

Overall though, Icstor could use someone that can feed him ideas and suggestions other than the rambling of randoms BUT more importantly he needs to make a game that HE likes, not just what his community wants.

why should anyone support ICSTOR and Summertime dev when you have NLT release update bi-weekly.
NLT updates are tiny compared to either of the devs you mentioned. Gameplay mostly consists of running around a static RPG MV map and maybe a handful of new renders every update, which is fine for what it is and I enjoy. But hardly comparable to a render heavy renpy game like MC or a hand drawn game like Summertime.

He said bi-weekly. They release an update every 15 days. ICSTOR releases an update every 6 months or whatever. By the time ICSTOR releases his next update NLT will have 5 times (probably more) the content he has. Infact, they would have probably finished their current game and started their next one.

To be honest with the amount of projects and skilled artists out there currently, this dude wouldn't be missed if he stopped working on games except by some diehard fans, crazy to me that he's still getting away with the ridiculous delays.

So if I'm reading into this right he's probably just grown either bored or just can't think of any ideas for Milfy City anymore so he wants to start a new game. Not like there is a good amount of stuff left he could do Milfy City... I guess thats why the last update was such a hot mess and is, in my opinion, one of the worst updates. I'm curious, is he a one man team? If so thats obviously an issue, I don't know if its greed or what keeping him if that's the case but his behavior is rough for anyone to defend. Now don't go saying that he got all tired out and it is hard thinking of new ideas cuz I get that but what took you so long to say something, it was evident since the last update that things are slowing down. Two updates is a stretch for anything good to come out of it unless they are super big I guess but that leaves a lot of room for sloppiness. That would mean individual character endings finished, the harem ending, finishing the neighbors, the counselor, that girl at school, (I can't remember if the aunts need anything else or not but them as well if they do), maybe Celia if she needs to be finished. Unless you plan on just leaving out a bunch of stuff. I may be misinformed but things generally seem bad.

Do you know game that is not about that? no?
Of course, since we are talking about porn games most of them will obviously have "me stick pp into vegana" but unlike icstor other developers at least trying to put some story in between of "me horny me fuck orifice" stills.
The most obvious and explicit examples are Treasure of Nadia, Being a dik, City of broken Dreamers.

A Wife and Mother, The DeLuca Family, Bad Memories, The Way, Radiant, Summer Scent, and others are doing this as well where they're putting a decent story in there with the sex action and it's becoming more of the trend these days. Even ICSTOR seems to have realised this which is why their next game is (if they ever actually see it through) going to be episodic rather than free-wheeling.
