No, if something gets a lot of bad reviews then it is generally just considered bad. "Review bombing" is something that happens more or less deliberately by a large number of users who agree on voting something collectively down. Often they review something like a game or a show negatively for something other than its face value quality. For example they write bad reviews for a game because the developer introduced microtransactions after promising never to introduce them previously. Or they vote down a show for something the main actor said in an interview. That is "review bombing".Yeah that's like when a lot of people leave a bad review on steam or rotten tomatoes it's called "review bombing" but when it's a lot of good reviews nobody bats an eye.
People are more triggered by bad things
See:Any eta yet?
TD's tl/dr:Good news, everyone: we got our first status update for 2024!
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
As TD already noted, he and GIL have created 219 statics, 10 animations and 6177 words in the 22 days between diaries. That gives them a holiday average of roughly 70 statics, 3.2 animations and 1965 words per week. Overall, they are averaging ~102 statics, 2.5 animations, and 2343 words per week since work on Chapter 3 Update 4 began. Here are the charts for Week 19:
I think the charts generally support TD's assessment of the situation: while we're approaching (or indeed, have already exceeded) what has generally been the end point for Chapter 4 updates, it seems there's still a substantial amount of work left. The big question is how much.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
If we assume Part A accounts for nearly all of the latest batch of artwork AND assume we're about halfway through it, THEN go on to assume Part B will be roughly equivalent in size, that would get us somewhere on the order of 600 statics, 20 animations and 9000 additional words still to be added. Since we're already buying assumptions in bulk, let's add another and assume our devs will tackle the remainder at something approaching their peak overall average rate for this development, which is ~100 statics, 3.5 animations and 3000 words per week.
By that math it would take roughly 3 weeks to add the words, but nearer 6 weeks to polish off the statics and animations. In reality that could drop to 5 or maybe even 4 weeks if GIL has a secret cache of completed animations under his mattress and he can up his static production, but that still puts us solidly in the middle of February. Add in a week to clean up loose ends and a couple weeks for testing and we'd be looking for a release in early March, just as TD suggested.
Of course most of those numbers were complete guesswork and the rest still had a high percentage of speculation in them, so don't take any of this as gospel. The big takeaway is that this is a long race and we're not in the home stretch yet. That will probably be worth it eventually when we get lots of ways to spend time with Felicia, but we should plan to make it through February without her. Such is the cross we bear.
We still cannot say when the next update will be. I would like to promise February, but it is already mid-January, and that would be a premature and ambitious target.
I swear man, the amount of people that obnoxiously emit toxic fumes over things they want no part of is annoying af on multiple levels.People should stop reviewing games poorly for kinks/fetish/themes they dont like if those themes are done well imo
a poorly executed game is poorly executed even if you like the kinks/fetish/themes just like a well executed one is good even if you hate the kinks/fetish/themes
Do you are have talking about the bepis?I'm sure someone already pointed this out but this is the first time I noticed it.
Won't bother explaining but, I'm not hallucinating right?

A bit of context here, but games usually get review bombed when something changes in it that that's pretty severe to miss the expectations of the players. A big shift in focus for the developers, as explained above, usually works as a mirror into how a lot of people might not feel an update or event is living up to their standards. And sometimes, people hate an actor or studio for doing something they did not like. It's a way to see what groups of people think or feel on Steam or elsewhere.Review bombing
Wait what I never noticed it.. What is this about?I'm sure someone already pointed this out but this is the first time I noticed it.

Seems like you still can't read my comment properly. In any case, if your quote of him accomplishes anything, it's further support of my point ^^. And I knew all this years ago don't worry.I ...
The quote may not explicitly refute your point, but it certainly doesn't support it. If the ultimate goal of this game was to justify an incest story, why is there never going to be any incest in it? Even if TD decided to change tack because of Patreon rules or something, why would he base the revised project on a setup designed from the keel out to do something counterproductive?Seems like you still can't read my comment properly.

Anyway, always funny how fanboys can be so trigerred and this quickly by a mere joke on a forum. Entertaining as ever
about what? I dont get it... Its Minas Mom and Brother... and? The hair of mom or what do you mean?I'm sure someone already pointed this out but this is the first time I noticed it.

I think He means (and I'm confused too) that this is the MC's momabout what? I dont get it... Its Minas Mom and Brother... and? The hair of mom or what do you mean?
Did you ever heard about hair dye? Or maybe the father is blonde? I for one inherited the haircolor of my grandfather, my father has black hair, my mom brown... i have reddish hair. Its not that uncommon to inherit some major features from a generetion before. Or adoption, but what would that matter anyways? *shrug* I dont know what you mgiht wanna build out of that picture. Wanna be the next x_dalli? So Hana is an alien, cause humans dont have yellow eyes, never ever.
In this "anime" style appearences are not realistic anyway so dont read too much into it.
If you not mean the hair... *shrug* i dont know what you want, and even if you mean the hair, well... nothing to fuss about either.
Well, what you are saying is entirely logic. Unfortunately, Axeleen's argument is that TD and GIL, possibly unbeknownst to themselves, deep down are writing an exploration of oedipal themes and as such it must be resolved, or at least motivated, by incest. Even, and I quote, "if they may never admit this to themselves (or to us)". Logic can't beat mind reading skills, or couch psychoanalysis, I'd say.The quote may not explicitly refute your point, but it certainly doesn't support it.

It would be like claiming a submarine was originally designed to fly to Mars purely on the grounds it has a *really* efficient life support system; a quote from the designer disparaging the lazy design of most interplanetary rockets is hardly proof.
erm no? Well with really really bad eyes you might think that and of course if you skipped most of the game too (cause MCs mom and Mina meet each other in the game and know about each other)... but no they are not the same person, not even close.I think He means (and I'm confused too) that this is the MC's mom
Wait what? Did Mina meet MCs mom? I think it was hanaerm no? Well with really really bad eyes you might think that and of course if you skipped most of the game too (cause MCs mom and Mina meet each other in the game and know about each other)... but no they are not the same person, not even close.
Fuck Rosalind looks more like MCs mom than the woman on that picture aka Minas mom.
Uff.... just.... uff, forget about it, start a new game, at the very beginning you can take a look at MCs mom already, and if you still think that she is the same person like on that picture, well.... *shrug* I guess Ronald McDonald will turn out to be my father, could be worse.Wait what? Did Mina meet MCs mom? I think it was hana
I'm gonna try this in another game thread. I'll post a random but obscure image from the game, and caption it: "You're seeing this right!?!I really didn't get that post either...maybe it is just trolling/red-herring? If not maybe that user could enlighten us if he/she maybe so inclined.
