Are you serious? Wow. Over or under on this project getting finished within the next few years?

Having Devs work on multiple projects at once isn't reassuring to me, I like this project but I'm not optimistic about it being first priority or being completed in a timely manner. If it updates I'll play it, but I'm not losing sleep over it.

Generally a good rule to live by with the games on these forums. Majority of devs are single or very small teams, not professional software engineers, with limited experience in both self-employment and creating a game, so the majority of games will not be completed. Many of them also for lack of support due to being mediocre, but some good ones die along the way as well. The less sleep lost over this, the better. (OTOH, lost sleep shows an emotional connection, which of course is something we want.)

Sometimes, and sometimes ONLY, you can work on multiple projects at the same time without being late just because you have a critical path somewhere imposing the delay, but without blocking the people working on it - this is more evident if you're used to read/build a linked Gantt chart for a whole team. To be clear for others, whatever you do, there is ALWAYS someone (or something) that makes the final delay. If it isn't you, then you can do something else while a project is "blocked" - another project, for example.

True. I talk to various Devs from time to time, that helped me get insight on what it takes to create games, how much time and energy goes into each project, etc. I wouldn't recommend any Dev stretching themselves thin on multiple projects at once, but it's not my call to make. Generally speaking I'm battle tested and worn when it comes to these games, I've gaslighted, rooted and defended games in the past, showed huge emotional investment and connection and seen plenty of top tier games with great promise abandoned completely. For me I just learned not to take anything serious anymore as far as these games goes, otherwise you'll drive yourself mad.

Honestly, I hope so. Radiant is far better than both of their other works
Very few projects around here have completion as a goal, more like they are serials with regular content updates. Most of the popular ones have been going for 5 years or more.

I am not really certain. DmD certainly leaves that impression but I would guess most do intend to complete a game (and then maybe make a sequel in the same universe) and many did complete. However, approaching these games "your style" and treating it like some TV show may not be the dumbest idea ever. Just like when a series got canceled without a proper finale you might be angry but it was more the ride than the resolution anyway.

didn't say many did not complete just that the most popular ones are still ongoing. Mr. Dots does have both on his plate with Melody having a definitive ending and Sunshine Love probably ending the same way, but DMD has more of a soap opera feel to it now and could end at any one chapter. Summertime saga is rolling the same way as is SSR7's Something Unlimited, though it seems like it should wrap up eventually, It's production time has stretched far beyond it's original scope.
And it's not to say these developers are "milking it" so much as players want more content just as much as the developer is comfortable creating it.

Funny thing tho, its not like 0.1 and 0.2 were insane hours long, at best like 2 hours if you take your time reading. Honestly, I subbed until August last year, until the excuses and the radio silenced started. The pilot was great, it made the game grow waaaaay too much that it deserved tho, now we're paying the price of that initial interest.

I feel like a lot of games launched in the last 2 years have had more content in .1 and .2 then they used to. I remember demos and .1 where you barely got the names and pictures of characters. Some games still launch really light like that but Radiant did not. The whole Gracie hook was a tremendous .1 but we got to go to meeting the girls. So initial interest was justified IMO. What probably threw things off were 2 things:
1 The graphic quality and as stated depth of ver 0.1 made this feel like a project from a large team
2 The bad timing of issues causing delays of ver 0.2 which resulted in trolling, hatred, and spiraling animosity.
Once ver 0.2 launched there were some complaints about the neighbor douche bag (deserved) but many people were happy and they even got the 0.2.1 patch out to add some stuff they wanted in 0.2 but didn't want to have delay the whole release (because #2 above). So the amount of content in the current version is about as good as I have seen from a 0.2 from a small team. As usual just my opinion

You may be new, so introducing Subscribestar it is like Patreon but for adults who want incest and teens.
Also as mentioned Lewdpatcher
Is this game dead? I mean the last post on his subscribestar was more than a year ago.

Yeah, they don't seem to like the idea of updates Period.
