So ... we are in the echo chamber, where the resounding noise is complaining about those Bad Patreons who are supporting the Radiant creators who they believe in or are hoping will continue to develop what started out as a great VN.
I supported Radiant for > 2 years and defended the creators during that time. I recently stopped supporting Radiant due to the lack of development, now at > 1 year since the last published chapter (and nothing on F95 had any impact on my decision since I am an adult and make my own choices about where and how I spend my $).
I still think Radiant has a lot of potential - But the creators will have to turn their latest words into action (which they have failed at for more than the last year) and put Radiant on a regular, multi-chapter release/year schedule for Radiant to have a chance to thrive.
The people who will make Radiant thrive are not the complainers here on F95. They are the people who decide to support the creators with $ and real - pro, con, pro - feedback versus the abuse spewing across so many of the responses on this thread.
This thread...
Is this a meeting place for RA (Radiant Anonymous)?
Is your therapy trashing creators and their supporters?
As Dr. Phil would say - 'How's that working for ya?'
What behavior are you looking to change? It's certainly not the developers or their supporters since this is now one of the most toxic threads on F95. Who would bother to come here for feedback or validation with this level of 'Give me my Free stuff NOWWW!!!'?
The next rev of Radiant will or will not arrive - in August or September of 2022 or whenever.
If the next rev of Radiant is never published, the complaining/whining will continue on this thread for years past any abandoned tag (See Milfy City and Dual Family threads if you need proof).
If the next rev of Radiant is published in the August/September 2022 timeframe, the complaining/whining will start up again within a few weeks of publication and continue on this thread for years.
There are people who inhabit this thread who are So invested in complaining about Radiant that there is nothing the creators can do to please them other than to abandon their creation so that 'the righteous' can say 'I Told You So.'
For those who want to facepalm me - bring your lazy response. If F95 could provide Crayola for coloring your facepalms, you could at least share your favorite color...
