Dude, I'm in awe with your fortitude and cool state of mind. You've explained at least half a dozen times your current involvement with ICSTOR, what's left and that basically, you're doing it pro-bono till the project is done.As I've said, I'm not getting paid until the final version of the game is released. This is the same payment procedure I use for all adult games that I write for. You're welcome to verify this with the developer DreamBigGames if you're interested in knowing how I operate. I've started writing for them on one of their upcoming projects.
If I was doing a PR job for the game, then I'm currently doing a pretty piss-poor job of one given that I've:
a.) told people not to support the Patreon and just pirate the game from the first page; and
b.) told people I'm not writing right now because I'm waiting on another batch of renders being sent across.
I've been nothing but honest with people since I started posting in this thread. Even way back during the silence from ICSTOR mid-2020 I was on here saying that I didn't know exactly what was going on and that my communication with ICSTOR had been infrequent.
Those who still stealing or gonna do it with this VN from here got their beef with the chief for lots of reasons. They can't reach him in any way so you're their scapegoat. Folks see you as his right hand, not his writer, who doesn't control the rendering aspect.
Could you ask him to share some new images on Patreon/Discord/anywhere else to let the steam off? If the overall number of in-game images exceeds several thousands, he could've easily offer you 5 random ones, no pressure, right?
