This thread truly is a neverending mine of hilariousness. I don't even remember clearly what the game was about, but I kept my subscription to here since the last time I played it years ago. Thank you guys
Normally, I'm all for communication, but this is one of those rare cases where saying nothing would probably be better than trying to set any expectations.March/April 2023, as I've repeatedly said throughout this thread time and time again.
I understand where you're coming from.Normally, I'm all for communication, but this is one of those rare cases where saying nothing would probably be better than trying to set any expectations.
I appreciate what you're trying to do, and believe that you've made it your mission to bring this thing back from the dead. The problem is, you're communicating on behalf of someone who has a well-documented history of flagrantly lying when setting dates and goals. They also have a history of moving the goalposts so shamelessly that they'll do it every 3 months for years at a time.
You've now hitched your reputation to the hope that they'll finally put in the work necessary for a substantial release, half a decade after they last demonstrated any work ethic or motivation whatsoever. It would be objectively better for the game's reputation if there were no dates, previews, or expectations, and then a huge release came out. That would also protect people like you in case leopards actually can't change their spots.
But we all know the reason ICSTOR publicly makes these promises and sets these dates. Most people don't believe him, so more talk does nothing for his reputation as a dev. What it really does is get the most gullible, sunk cost fans to throw more money at it. And, if I were you, that would be concerning. Because that means he's more focused on doing what he's always done (hyping up some patreon money) than he is about improving the game's reputation. So, when ICSTOR inevitably disappears right before you and the rest of the crew expect him to release your work, whose reputation will be damaged the most?
Somebody show this to ICSTOR:It's gonna be an absolutely hellish March/April for me, but I'll get it done.
How do you guys not just lose it on people being dicks to you lolMarch/April 2023, as I've repeatedly said throughout this thread time and time again.
That's because March/April is the best information I have to work with.Onyxdime you keep repeating Mar/Apr as if there is a reasonable chance for the update to come out this month.... If it doesn't come out this month all you've done is left room for excuses for 1 month delay. It would still be another delay, yet again.
Is icstor going to refund/or suspend payments from April until the update comes out?
Oh now it is March/APRIL? Before it was just March. So are you already hinting at a delay? Does that mean when April gets here and no update. You will then say April/May?March/April 2023, as I've repeatedly said throughout this thread time and time again.
Considering that just getting an update is probably out of the picture. I would say Harem is as well.Maybe it was already discussed, but I only saw posts from others. Is the harem ending really out of the picture? Will there be at least some shared scenes with Linda, Sarah and Caroline at least?
I have no idea what ICSTOR is going to do. But odds are pretty good right now he is kicked back LAUGHING his ass off at the IDIOTS that are still supporting him.That's because March/April is the best information I have to work with.
I don't know what ICSTOR is going to do, I'm not involved with the Patreon. I'm only getting paid when the game gets released.
Ideally, I want it to be before the 5th April, as that means I get to include the payment as part of the 22/23 tax year, rather than rolling it into 23/24.
I've been estimating March/April for weeks on this thread. This isn't some new information I'm just dropping today.Oh now it is March/APRIL? Before it was just March. So are you already hinting at a delay? Does that mean when April gets here and no update. You will then say April/May?

Read the thread please before you state the obvious or things that have been said multiple times already.Considering that just getting an update is probably out of the picture. I would say Harem is as well.
You're putting in a ton of work and communicating openly. I believe you about what your goals are and that you're doing what you can to reach those.I understand where you're coming from.
I wouldn't be hitching my reputation on this if I hadn't actually been putting in the work on my end. I've written tens of thousands of words so far for this final update across thousands of renders and animations. I'm spending 90% of my free time outside my main job just working through the new images and animations that I get sent.
All that's left is Linda/Bob, Yazmin/Liza, and Sara/Lily. It's gonna be an absolutely hellish March/April for me, but I'll get it done.
