unlikely... I would expect an Update of the scale of 0.6... took as long and ICStor was actually "more motivated" than now... but this time Baron did some of his work so maybe we can expect a similiar UpdateSoo, a year-long update with 3 hours of content or something? Hopefully, we have more content compared to previous updates.
That's what I tell Sara every night.Take it all.
your neighbors muust have called the cops on you regulary than, given her screamer (from pain) personalityThat's what I tell Sara every night.
Another reason why I was disappointed with it.The real update was the friends we made along the way![]()
I didn't point anyone, but it's ok if you feel aluded, you may have your reasons. Things started earlier when I defended the dev and I got people here saying I'm stupid, idiot or even the dev. I was pointing them.I agree with you but the guy said that people criticizing Icstor probably have a mental illness. His post is still there.
Your message is too long, honestly I didn't read the whole thing.I didn't point anyone, but it's ok if you feel aluded, you may have your reasons. Things started earlier when I defended the dev and I got people here saying I'm stupid, idiot or even the dev.
Everyone is free to have an opinion, and to write it. EVeryone is free to release their frustration or hate here, generating more hate. I've been in many forums for more than 20 years and yeah, there are many forums full of this kind of people who does not contribute anything good. I have my opinioin too, but I usually point the facts.
Facts:
- This game is one of the best technically out there. Awesome models, and awesome animations. Story/plot, same as 50% of them all: guy in the city fucking everything moving
- People like this game (patreon numbers don't lie)
- I don't know the dev, I'm quite new here, I played my first adult visual novel a few months ago (a nice discovery, I must admit)
- The way patreon works (and other platforms, I said this in another thread) is not very compatible with this kind of content. Why would a dev want to finish a game? To lose patreon supporters? I mean, would you still supporting a game you know it will have no more updates?
Having said all that, I think it's not wise keep complaining about a dev who said this or that, who hasn't updated for a year or for a month. If you're paying him, stop paying, otherwise you're part of the problem. And of course if you're not paying (like me) stop complaining, it's useless and only brings frustration to people trying to read something interesting about the game.
Anyway, when some of you say I'm the dev of this game, I think you are not very smart, or you are writting the first thing coming to your mind, or your frustration for not having more updates is REALLY sick. There are tons of porn content in the internet to fap away, and if you really like the game, then why do you charge on the dev? Because you hope he will read this and work harder so you can fap sooner? I'm sorry but I just can't believe this shit. I think they have a discord channel for supporters anyway so they can puke all their bile there. What is clear to me is a dev would never come here (with a different nick) to try to convince you of anything. Even a dev with a lot of free time. And if you really think I'm the dev, you could find more posts I wrote, i have written very few, one of them is my list of favourite games in order and guess what? Milfy city is not the first one.
First of all I didn't insult anyone before I got insulted.Your message is too long, honestly I didn't read the whole thing.
The truth is someone called you and idiot and his message was deleted. You said other people had mental problems and your message is still there. Maybe you were both right: people criticizing Icstor have mental problems and you are indeed an idiot.
Maybe you were both wrong: no one has mental problems and you are not an idiot.
But there should be equal rights for everyone: either insulting is allowed or it's not.
BTW, the game is crap compared to more recent titles. Icstor rested on his laurels and the latest update, released over 1 year ago, was shit compared to the previous ones. Update your game list, you'll be surprised.
People defending Icstor are brainless simps without dignity.First of all I didn't insult anyone before I got insulted.
Second, it seems if you try to be constructive you are automatically an idiot.
Third, I've been playing around 50 games since I discovered adult VNs, I enjoy them very much, but only the first run. I keep saying Milfy City is the best I've played techincally (I played all you have in your signature, but too few content).
Fourth, I understand you are now critisicing the admins of the forum, because in your opinion I should be punished too. The thing is I could understand that they delete that post cause I really think I crossed the line of respect, but i also understand they don't, becasue I didn't point anyone, while others did, and they did it because I was trying to defend the dev of an endless whining thread that seemed, as I have written again, totally illogic <-- this can be a mental illness, it's called schizophrenia. And by the way, and before you attack me again, I've been suffering mental illness for years, it's called depression and anxiety and I don't have any problem to say it, I don't think I'm garbage because of that.
I don't know if answering you is leading to anywhere, after all you don't read if it's too long, so I won't expect your attention at all, because I said, in previous posts and again in the one you admitted you didn't read, the way patreon works is wrong, so blaming the artists lead to nowhere. But I'll say it again, maybe this time I'll be more lucky: Why would a supporter keep paying a project once it is finished? I mean, when all supporters know that project will have no more updates. What a normal person would do in a non communist country is to create another profile, start a new project and cash again. It's counter productive to keep developing other projects under the same nick, you will get more supporters, yes, but all your supporters will pay the same for all your projects, instead having multiple projects you get multiple fees from each supporter. So the problem here is not the dev. I think I'm answering you.People defending Icstor are brainless simps without dignity.
I haven't pointed at anyone so I expect my post not to be deleted either
Getting a post deleted is not being punished by the way, I don't like people being sanctioned or banned from this site and that includes of course you.
As for technical quality, man, City Of Broken Dreamers or Being a DIK are both head and shoulders ahead Milfy City.
Apparently you are very new to this whole world. As you can see I've been around for almost 3 years. Icstor makes this humble industry look in a very bad light. You cannot be a fickle fuck, argue burnout when you mean boredom and keep getting paid tens of thousands of dollars every single month for not actively working on the games people are paying you to develop.
If he keeps getting away with it, can you imagine what other devs would be tempted to do? It's immoral and it's absolutely harmful to this industry. Can't you see what is at stake here?
I played Broken dreamers and Depreaved Awakening and they are very good. Being a DIK is so overrated, I played it too (3 times to unlock the dick and chick runs)People defending Icstor are brainless simps without dignity.

Actually, cause this is not a question of pride, I'm gonna delete myself that "mental illness" thing, so it won't be a problem for admins anymore. After all I have admitted twice I got beyond the line of respect in the heat of the moment.I played Broken dreamers and Depreaved Awakening and they are very good. Being a DIK is so overrated, I played it too (3 times to unlock the dick and chick runs)
I knew I should have responded to this when I saw you mention this the first time (can't remember which thread, but that doesn't matter anyway). It's not about supporting a game, it's about supporting a dev. If you have only one good game in you, that's a shame, but milking that game so you wouldn't lose your patreon money will just tarnish that game. The whole idea behind being a game developper is that you develop more than one game. Of course, when the first one crashes and burns, you'll likely not make a second one, but that is the initial intention.- The way patreon works (and other platforms, I said this in another thread) is not very compatible with this kind of content. Why would a dev want to finish a game? To lose patreon supporters? I mean, would you still supporting a game you know it will have no more updates?
Well, I didn't know this dev actually had many more games and some are finished, that's another reason to defend him (or them) then. Anyway, if your goal is to make the best possible living out of your work (as I think we all do), you would rather start independent games and work on the updates in parallel. I don't think Dr.PinkCake is getting supporters for Acting Lessons (great game, by the way, better than Being a DIK), and if he is getting them, he's getting more for being a DIK for sure. After all it's the supporters who understand the underlying idea of patreon: support the artists so they can keep working. But for the devs this is not working good. Maybe they should focus the games as a series instead of a movie, so they can keep earning money without an end for the story in the horizon (though the story itself may lose sense and interest), or maybe the patreon thing should work in a different way. I don't know the solution really. What happens when a dev is earning 15k $ a month? He can yoohoo and enjoy his life or he can subcontract animators, modellers, or simply buy more models and animation on the market so he can work faster... or he can start a small company, or he can start parallel projects... I don't know. What I do know is if you start multiple unfinished projects you can have multiple payments from the same supporter.I knew I should have responded to this when I saw you mention this the first time (can't remember which thread, but that doesn't matter anyway).

Of course, when the first one crashes and burns, you'll likely not make a second one, but that is the initial intention.
You say a developper isn't motivated by Patreon to finish games, so let me give you some examples of successful developpers who finished theirs: DrPinkCake (finished Acting Lessons, currently making Being a DIK, 8500 Patreons), NLT Media (finished Visiting Aunt Sara, My Summer With Mom and Sis, Lust Epidemic, currently making Treasure of Nadia, 10588 Patreons), ICSTOR (finished MILF's Control, Incest Story 1 & 2, MILF's Villa, currently "making" Milfy City, 6065 Patreons). You make a game, finish it and then make a new one to keep that Patreon support. You might lose Patreons because they don't like the new one, but if you're good, you'll gain other followers.
So yeah, the dev you're defending is in the list of guys who finished games. But let's be honest, games that were rushed at the ending because he got bored with them. And now he's not even bothering to end the current one, even though people who were contracted by him claim to have done their part.
It's not.Well, I didn't know this dev actually had many more games and some are finished, that's another reason to defend him (or them) then.
If you mean something like The Artifact by ICCreatcions, I agree. That game had two sequels, and a spin off which was abandonned due to the Patreon Purge. If you're talking about a game where all story is just abandonned in favour of popular votes for girls, I disagree (that happened to the original Big Brother, several paths were dead ends because of how Patreons voted, and the whole game just devolved into a dumb cliché mess that didn't make fulfill any of the promises of the start). If the game isn't captivating, I'm moving on to the next one, so that's less money for the developper.Maybe they should focus the games as a series instead of a movie, so they can keep earning money without an end for the story in the horizon (though the story itself may lose sense and interest)
Okay, read again what you just said, but slowly. You can't subscribe twice to someone.What I do know is if you start multiple unfinished projects you can have multiple payments from the same supporter.
If you are not a supporter, I mean, if you pay 0 to play a game, you have no right to criticise it for any reason. If you pay, stop paying and whinning. There's no more to talk about. If you have been paying to get faster updates or whatever shit you swallowed from the author, that's your responsibility, do something and stop publishing shit nobody cares about to raise your number of posts, create hate, or whatever reason you have to spend your time criticising other people's work. You're probably not old enough to play these games anyway.
