Exactly this. I mean, almost everybody have been just waiting Carolines pregnancy route since it was revealed, and just knowing that he will either cut it off completely or then rush it and fuck that up...such a shame. Not to even mention Lindas story. Too bad that game with such potential had to fall because the dev couldn't handle the fame and became a total ass.
Well, to me it looks like the success of Milfy City is mainly Onyxdime's achievement and sort of a successful accidental combination of Summertime Saga (in terms of the gameplay) and Dreams of Desire (in terms of the setting): a renpy sandbox around an average small town household with a babyface shy MC.
Just compare the Milfy City story, MC and setting with Icstor's previous games, for instance, Milf's Villa.
I absolutely agree with you about Isctor being unable to repeat his success with his future games. Milfy Kingdom looks like a rip-off of the Dungeon & Goblins mini-game sequence from Being a Dik - a game that is developed and timely updated by (!) a one man team.
I wish it was possible to launch a dedicated thread on the Milfy City potential, lore and story to discuss it among sane mature people without having to see a pile of posts like "when release", "where to download", "add xyz-fetish cuckold harem foresome" etc.
In addition, the stealth action episode at the warehouse (a la Metal Gear Solid or Splinter Cell without guns) looked very unrealistic and kinda immersion breaking. As if this sequence was rushed. The story itself behind Caroline's medallion was lovely though, but it's Onyxdime's effort.
