Ren'Py Abandoned Patronus [v3.2.72 Final] [DVE Games]

[Tomomasa]

3.2.72Br4

It seems faster to travel. The observe bordello bug is fixed. I encountered this bug when trying to travel from bordello (it's a new save):

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Tried new bugfixed version. So far saw 0th of November MC and some NPCs turns invisible;
travel inside Rome got faster, but in between of provinces shows error screens. Right now trying
to get materials for a restoration of family's villa and will see, what new artifacts I'll encounter.

 

[Tomomasa]

Yeah for me it's a gamebreaking bug. Can't get out of Rome.

 

[dvemail]

we'll look into this. Of course, didn't show up in my game testing.

 

[ybola]

is it abandoned? What a shame!
Game is really nice, even if progress is quite repetative

Look a few posts up before making stupic comments...

 

[hecom]

what's new ?
can you fuck them yet ?
is the blowjob in yet ?

Hm, then why there is tag "Abandoned"

 

[srksrk 68]

Hm, then why there is tag "Abandoned"

That's a valid question, but since the dev posted just the post above your's, the question why you don't read at least one post back is valid as well.

 

[Tomomasa]

Guys and gals! The developer did abandon the project. All we have after more than a year are promises and a patch which introduced a new game breaking bug. Until we see an update with significant new content the abandoned tag is deserved.
We need proof that the current developer can finish this. Until then there is no use of fanboying or turn against each other.
When the game breaking bug is fixed and we see new content indicating this is going somewhere there will be a time to apologize to him/her/them for some of us including me.

 

[ybola]

Okay, thanks for description of situation. Good luck to developer to progress on this fine project.

Regardless of whether the project is currently in a good state, there was just a release with changes made, it is clearly being worked on... so it is definitionally not abandoned. If there was a broken tag then you might have a point...

 

[Yngling]

"Abandoned" is a tag which (semi-?) automatically appears when there has not been an update for X amount of time.

That's all.

You can clearly see that the game is being worked on. The last couple of updates however were only published on discord and not here, so they don't count towards the "Abandoned" tag.

 

[Perniciousducks]

It's been updated here.

Most games are "leaked" and the site mods or whoever updates it here, doesn't matter who actually owns the thread.

Actually this is not true. The abandoned tag is deserved because they announced that their main dev is abandoned the project. Another team member is missing too "due to the Ukrainian war". Most projects here are 1 to 3 member projects. So loosing 2 people is a significant setback.
You simping for a thing which is mainly a work of another dev who left. Before we jump back on this we need to see the new devs work.

Your inability to understand the meanings of simple english words has nothing to do with "simping for a thing". Setbacks are not abandonment. Releasing a new build is not abandonment.

 

[Tomomasa]

Setbacks are not abandonment. Releasing a new build is not abandonment.

Just a status update, guys. We lost our main dev in May on the verge of a major release of 3.2.72. Since that time we've gone through no fewer than four guys who either got fired or ghosted... (January 9, 2022)

Release log from v3.2.71r4 (July 9, 2021):

• fixed aureus reptuation syntax
• fixed certain dialogues for Fasti cum sequences
• fixed certain dialogues for Inka handjob, and fixed sequencing
• updated UI language
• fixed incorrect placement of tooltips for spank minigame
• lowered Maeve quest requirements
• fixed crash in basilica
• added Inka buttjob
• added parmida boobjob
• added parmida buttjob
• fixed error on management screen in some scenarios
• fixed error for time incorrectly passing when inspecting closed areas

Since then there were no content update.

I think we are going in circles and I think I'm not the one who don't understand simple English words. I'm getting tired of this. This post sum up everything you need to know about this project in the last year. I'm out for awhile.

[gasno]

Can't believe it's alive.

 

[Yngling]

Actually this is not true.

Yes it is. What I wrote is factually correct.

The abandoned tag was already there before Dvemail announced their problems.

It's the same with other games which have some kind of hiatus for whatever reason. Even if the dev continues posting in the thread or even PM-ing staff members, the abandoned tag stays until there is an update posted on F95Zone.

Unfortunately that introduces a lot of unclarities, especially for people who don't bother to look up the project history, most of which is generally available in the very game thread those people reply to.

In this case, while *you* may feel a lack of progress, the fact is that the game is still being worked on, the dev is even active in the forum, so the game is technically not abandoned. Just slowly moving forward. Of course, I would like story/content updates as well, but it is what it is. If you want it to go faster, you may try shoving a large amount of money towards the dev, but otherwise complaining about it won't help too much....
