Tbf a lot of us use this forum to find decent game devs to support, and it's a good platform to gripe on. There are a lot of devs that milk the consumer and never finish their project. Mad respect for the rare few that keep up a consistent amount of quality updates.My favorite genre of comedy is people complaining about a dev's update cycle in a piracy forum lmao.
I bet he has a really DARK backstory.I would die for Billy
From what has been told so far, seems like he's from the post-war generation - unlike his uncle or the older guards - so while possible i wouldn't say too probable.I bet he has a really DARK backstory.
He could still be hideously scarred underneath that helmet.From what has been told so far, seems like he's from the post-war generation - unlike his uncle or the older guards - so while possible i wouldn't say too probable.
I just cant understand why people support this. There are much better games,many great developers that are much more invested in their games.This guy's work should be investigated. I honestly think its some sort of money laundering.My first comment on this thread was March 17th, 2024 shortly after 7.0 came out, and here we are 426 days later and patch 9.0 is finally out, with the addition of roughly ten minutes of light reading, and two and a half (window scene?) sex scenes added in total across two patches.
Considering it seems they average around $20,000 a month on patreon, in the 426 days since I originally commented, they have earned $280,000~, if I were to have been a supporter the day I made my comment I would have paid $42 (based on the most popular support option on their patreon).
You can not convince me this isn't a forever game being developed at a snails pace intentionally, perhaps I'm too poor so the idea of spending $42 for the tiny bit of content we've received seems asinine, but maybe not so much for others. I just can't help but think what $42 could get me in other avenues of entertainment (Shadow of Erdtree is fucking $40 btw).
To clarify, I do not care that Cyan is getting rich off their art, more props to them, they developed their name and reputation enough to garner this kind of pay. I'm more just pissing in the wind here, and am also just flabbergasted that Cyan's supporters (not just the ones in this thread) aren't more vocal about the pace and size of updates. There is a chance I am just grossly underestimating the time it takes to draw these backgrounds, and someone will come humble me with their experience on how much work actually goes into the drawings. I just personally have a hard time believing that Cyan puts even close to 15 hours a week of real work towards this game, and it confuses me how people so generously support that. If you run the numbers at 15 hours a week, since the last update (8.0) on October 13th, 2024 that comes out to 570 hours of work (update was 38 weeks ago), which doesn't even sound plausible to spend that much time working on something and produce such meager results.
I guess at the end of the day I'm just surprised that they continually grow and clear more and more money with such disappointingly small and sparse updates while it seems others bust their ass on this site with more frequent, larger updates to their games and have 1/20th of the support this game has. I wonder if that's just the difference that being hungry for success (or money) has, and now that Cyan is at the 'top' they can take it easier, who knows? Thanks for coming to my ted talk about a porn game I guess.
Edit: Also update was hot though![]()
From what the king said when you ask him about history, the war seems at least to have happened more than 20 years ago. Judging from all his behavior Billy is barely any older than that.From what has been told so far, seems like he's from the post-war generation - unlike his uncle or the older guards - so while possible i wouldn't say too probable.
To be fair, my overall guess too. His attitude & personality really don't fit with the idea of someone that hides its face due to scars and trauma related to it.From what the king said when you ask him about history, the war seems at least to have happened more than 20 years ago.
