Back when I made 20k-ish a year I lived check to check.. didn't do much and spent little. But I was happy and I made it work. When I made 70k, I bought more things, bigger things and made more expenses for myself and I barely felt like I made a dent in retirement and still felt like I somehow lived check to check. Most people will live by the means that they make and I'm not surprised by a person making a 100k.. (like my sister) still somehow don't have available money to spend. Its no excuse.. but it makes sense.
It's called a Stripper Mentality, based off the phenomenon where women will become strippers and start making an insane amount of money per night and thus they spend every dollar they make while expecting that money to continue to roll in at the same amount, making them simultaneously rich and broke. A lot of devs will do that and claim to be broke because they spend all their earnings on dumb shit.

Would make for a good Documentary Video if got facts and deep understanding behind the scenes of this Dev. Dunno, maybe that's just me being curious on this.

It has been a while since I commented on this thread. Is there anything I should look forward to in the next few updates?

As much as I am fond of changelogs, I'd rather have progress reports. Both are greatly appreciated all the same, though!

Edit:
Bold and Italicization so people don't miss things :D

Given its development history - just presume "never". You won't be too far from truth. After all, who needs sales when you have a ton of liability-free "donations"?
facts, once the game goes live, he'll never get his fat stacks anymore, party time will be over.

You forget that 10 years from now when this game is finally "done" there is the rpg that started all this to finally revisit. This was supposed to originally be a small side project to get things going for the rpg. Six years later its clear the whole thing is a scam and people are still thinking something is going to come of any of this.

I do kinda agree with the stripper mentality, and by extension pro sports players have a similar mentality. They make a ton of money and then get banished off to retirement. All the while clinging to the old days and all the money the made (and have now pissed away)

Long story short, we all know this is going to see revisions and anything else that could be a delay tactic compared to any progress. I expect to be any of old, gray, and dead by the time there is a substantial update to any of this.

We need v0.105.00 May 19th :)The newest version that has galley clothing change...Buti its impossible to find for now until someone uploads it.
This might have been brought up in the past, but I just want to say that the version numbering of this game is killing me lol. We've gone from v0.104.00 to v0.105.00...and this is after 6 years of development :KEK:

I'm not even gonna start doing the maths on when we'll reach v.1.0 at this rate, but I think the real world might actually reach the cyberpunk levels depicted in Eromancer's games before this is finished :KEK:

my brother in christ it's not a progress bar adding up to 1.0 from 0.998, 0.999 etc. It's a release number. It's broken down by major revision/release, followed by minor release number, followed by bugfix number, then sometimes a specific build number. 0.104.0 means non-release build, revision #104, no bugfixes.

Yeah, I'm a programmer myself, I know that there are a couple of version numbering standards you can use, but in the grand scheme of things it doesn't really matter which one you choose. No amount of "versioning acrobatics" is gonna save you from a pissed-off customer and if our team at work was still stuck at "major release 1" or 0.1 after 6 years of development on our projects, we'd been fired 6 times over.

Of course, our projects are a lot less "sexy" and aren't designed to feed off of customers' hormones and horniness, which is the only reason devs like Eromancer and YandereDev are even capable of making a living on these crowdfunding platforms. Customers for large projects in the real world who tend to be in their 50s or 60s are a lot less forgiving and unaffected by such things.
