devs initial estimate was 2 weeks ago lol
I know, when chapter 7 part 1 was released he said he needed another 6 weeks (which would be half/end of march. So yeah, life gets in the way, estimations can be too positive. But damn this happens with every damn dev all of the time.

I remember someone made a post that they expected it before April 19, which I don't remember why they set that date, but I laughed to myself and knew it would be the over. I doubted April and wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't released in May either. But I think MSL will try and get it out this month. I care less about a few weeks or even a month or two than the quality of the chapter. If it's a quality chapter with great content nobody will care that it took too long. But if it's as short as Part 1 was, I would definitely be disappointed in that case.
I fully understand and support this sentiment, but my problem is not with a late release date. My problem is with the constant estimated release dates which are never made. This is not something that only plagues MrS (he is one of the few who, until chapter 7, was actually quit punctual. I rather wait until a dev has actually a release date which is realistic then a ''hoping'' date. Because the last one brings just an expectation and the following dissapointment, which is hardly inspiring support.

Before everybody comes with ''dude this is a piracy site''. This is not my point, I do support the dev on patreon and am still very happy with NiF. But even if I didn't pay for the game, promises are not without responsibility, trust comes on foot and leaves on horseback.

It'll be here eventually. The game has a lot of choices and paths and stuff like that takes a lot of time.

We kinda got mentioned on that post:PogChamp:
If you're referring to the "pirates" thing, count me out of that.
I'm a patron since the second update and still support MrSilverLust. :cool:

I also think it was a shitty move to leak the update so close to release. Like he said, that caused a series of problems on other platforms and made him lose much needed support.
We should also take into account that MrSilverLust went out of his way to improve the game adding new videos to all the chapters.
And let's not forget how he answered players requests by adding a "vanilla" path for Jen that wasn't in the plans, further improving the game and making players happier.
All those things take time and effort!
I don't see the need or logic behind the hate reviews, the acusations of milking and delay (as if he's making a fortune) or the premature leaks (that kinda sounded...). We are fortunate (now I can say WE) that he kept his cool and pace and there's an update coming this tuesday.

I understand... I also feel the itch when waiting for the games I like. But a little patience goes a long way. The game will surely make it's way here and there's no need to harm the dev.
If you were referring to something else, my apologies, but I wanted to say something after the last stream of impatient posts.

Let's hope it's a great update, like ALL the others before. :)

So its coming today, just not at 18:00 GMT.

At least it doesn't come out next tuesday.
