I stopped subbing him because he lacks honesty, no matter what you should communicate with your paying customers, he doesnt.
It looks to me that he is taking all his subbers for granted recently.
Covid is a way of life now so that does not wash. Initially I believed his situation's, but now I think he's playing (on their goodwill) his subs because his excuses are very weak. Nothing he said recently should stop him from working on the game, to be honest nothing he said since the first Covid Outbreak was a valid excuse IMO.

IMO the game became too large and too complex for 1 man show..., this from one side. From the other he started to make new renders for the whole game, not just for the new update after he bought the new equipment. And this is not his full-time job after all. So be patient, he will deliver (I hope so). The game is worth it. He is not the only dev who is delaying his game under this "new usual conditions"... games like Being a DIK are also without update for 5-6 months already, the budget there is lot different from here.

Tbf 5-6 months is DPC's usual dev cycle it has nothing to do with the state of the world. Also, the quality and amount of content is not even remoteley comparable in those cases.

I have no issue whatsoever with HG and the amount of time he takes atm, it should be obvious that no one wants the patch to be finished more than him.

I do take issue with the example given since it was a very poor and misleading one :(

Its good you have no issue I am assuming your a Patreon of his otherwise you "not have an issue" is irrelevant (interpreting your own wording earlier in the thread).
The issue I had was not the time he takes between updates that is supplemental to the hardware and actual hours worked on the game.
My issue, and the reason I no longer sub him, is that he rarely communicates with his subscribers in a manner that is acceptable. Posting an excuse and a weak apology for non communication is bad enough, but then disappearing for weeks after then initial apology with no further updates makes you wonder.
Your point about DPK is valid, but he communicates with his subs professionally thats why I still sub him.
Working and making a game can be very taxing if you dont professionally manage your time.
The thing I do agree on is if you get the game for free on F95 you dont have any right to moan as you pay nothing for it.
You can moan but why would any dev care? Still who doesn't like to moan.

The pattern here suggests burnout.

I feel the developer wants to do more work on the game, clearly, but only feels pressure and shame for not completing it already, so it is something to work on tomorrow, and life is busy and stressful enough already, so it's easy to get drunk or something tonight and figure it out tomorrow when there's more time. Every two weeks or so the stress cycle completes and the developer wakes up motivated, apologizes, and starts to work again, only to run into some kind of obstacle, probably the high volume of game paths, and then put it down again for a day or two, only then the pressure comes back.

I haven't seen any game recover yet from developer burnout, but I hope this one does, as it is one of my favorite games and doesn't really compare to anything else. If and when the progress bounces back, my patronage will return as well.

All of you who are supporting those type of "developers" are being duped and if you want to blame someone - look in the mirror.

None of those so called "developers" deserve any money. Only here they can sell forever something that never gets finished. And they do this on purpose - to milk you dry ... no pun intended

This is overly harsh, especially in the case of the dev, who prior to this release had a solid history.

most games here are open ended, which isn't bad , quite the oposite
some aim for a complete story or for at least a complete chapter
others like lucky mark or willy get to big to keep downloading and have to end - but they are a great succes for their developers and bring a lot to the next project
the open ended facet is not a problem, you can easily work o a game lateraly, meaning you can have some girls in vacantion so you can catch up with others or somesuch, as long as people are interested
i had high hopes for this game to let go through all the girls, a bunch of threesomes and some bdsm , a porn studio before even dreaming of an ending
the dev chose well to have a number of days with a set number of actions per day,
it also provided replay value

While this game has more content than most other games here the fact it has been dragged forever remains the same ... for a variety of good reasons of course lol.

More than 90% of those games remain unfinished or abandoned after of course being slow walked for as long as possible and to the detriment of their supporters
