They didn't. Don't blame Patreon.

A recap:

It was an excuse ICSTOR used to weasel out of his "promise" to release an update every 2 weeks after getting the abandoned tag the first time. He manages a 5min update in 2weeks, his first (and only update) after more than 2 years - after saying he was 90% finished with the entire game.

then...

A few days after missing his 2nd deadline, he blames Patreon for flagging blackmail content, and that he's going to spend his time "fixing" the game instead.
-Which is suspicious since they didn't object to the incest, or alleged underage sex. Even more bizarre is that his page is still up with the banned content.

After supposedly spending a month removing content, his page actually goes down. (probably got mass reported as a scam.)

He then made the excuse that the entire Patreon mod team went on vacation. He won't release the update until they get back.

A month later, his page is back up, and he resumes getting paid.

He then releases the statement that instead of 2 week updates, he's just going to finish the game and release it before the end of the year . Once again assuring us that his 90% complete.

6 months pass and f95zone finally slaps the abandoned tag.
A day later ICSTOR puts "on hold" on his patreon, but continues to take the sub money...
He did not miss any "second deadline" he did his release in mid July 2021, and by the first week of August he was under investigation. :) I take 100% credit for that, you are all welcome.

finally the tag in more than 2 years he only made an update of 5min and countless excuses

it's a shame it ended like this... was replaying recently and the game has some of my fav scenes/camera angles, lots of content, and hot animations at that time... wonder what happened with all the passion and work to render all that stuff bc there is a lot already made...

anyways there are lot of people making others great game here, give them a chance

The following is only for gullible readers. I have met ICSTOR the other day and he told me that for 1 million U.S Dollars, he will finish the game. As a service to the community, I've contacted the Nigerian prince Abimbola. He was kind enough to spare me 1m$ in order to transfer to ICSTOR. I told ICSTOR to call the prince directly at the following number: 1-800-This-is-a-scam or by email: fraud@scamrus.com

Today, ICSTOR received the money. He promised me that the game will be complete by April, 1st. If you don't believe me, you can check the progress bar in the following site:

More good news on the subject will be in the unforeseeable future.

The irony is, there's games that haven't received an update in more than 6 months that don't have the abandoned tag on them.. the 6month+ update cycle has become the norm and anyone who dares expose it is chased by pitchforks.. there's some serious Stockholm syndrome among "fans", and it's proven by the continuous support to scammers like Icstor..

I am not waiting for the game to release or anything but is ICSTOR still "promising" a release for milfy city and making bullshit excuses or did he make an official statement that the game is dead.

Pure radio silence. He even got his SubscribeStar site locked for lack of communication (he must have missed that 30-day communication windows are required there).

that the dev will not update this game anymore and therefore it is not finished/completed. no other meaning

The game is still be worked on it's just progress has been really slow that's all. Why would the game still have over 4k patrons if the game was simply left abandoned for more than two years?
It still has 4,000+ patrons because scamming fools out of a few bucks every month is easy. ICSTOR has a history of "completing" games, I use quotations because he's only actually finished two games without getting bored first and rushing them to completion leaving vast swaths of missing content in his wake, and great character designs. Just look at Milfy City. Hot mom, loli sister, Lara Croft lookalike older sister, various other milfs... all with good designs outside of the loli sister because I don't get that particular fetish. So someone is all "I'll donate $5 a month, that's not much." and the patreon receipt goes to their spam folder, or they just don't check the email address they used because it's their secret porn one, and so on and so forth. Five years later they've either accepted the fact that the updates won't be coming any time soon but are OK with it because they don't care about a few dollars out of their bank account a month or they've completely forgotten about the fact that they're still paying ICSTOR. Patreon is a flawed concept that enables scammers like ISCTOR.

The character designs have become outdated over the years.
There are already many games in which the characters look more attractive and natural.
That's kind of true. I would argue that Milfy City's character are still pretty damn good, especially for their age. But it's true that since the game has received basically no significant updates in more than two years, there is another, growing problem:

When you abandon a project for so long, even if you want to come back to it, it becomes more and more difficult to pick up where you left off, since softwares, tools, methods and so on upgrade and change over time. That means your renders will look substantially different, maybe some characters or specific tools aren't supported anymore, etc...

But the art style especially will begin slowly to look outdated, because you still have to use the same render parameters and techniques from 3-4 years ago when this game was initially created, unless you just use new parameters but then the new updates will look substantially different from the old ones, which may break the experience.

That's why you need to keep realistic development and lifespan time. Creating a lewd game over a period of 4-5+ years is bound to create a LOT of problems.

But that also wouldn't have been too much of an issue if ICSTOR wasn't a massive scammer that knowingly and purposely extended news update in order to milk the absolute shit out of clueless first-time pledgers.

That is why I have said their rules need to be revamped. Right now the rules are set to cover ever type of artist on Patreon. A post once a month or what ever it is is fine for say Musicians, Reactors, ect . But what does a post prove in the Dev gaming world. NOT A DAMN THING. Only thing that really matters is the UPDATES. Devs shouldn't be getting paid 3, 6 , 12 months for a game they haven't updated.
