Damn, he hopes that doesn't happen. I've never been on the dark web and I probably wouldn't be able to handle it.

One creator I am supporting there (someone who shall not be named on this site incidentally) was blocked temporarily few weeks ago by subscribestar and asked to remove all links to his games from the website if he wanted to be unblocked. He had to move everything to Discord.

Yeah, I know who you are talking about. It amuses how inconsistent SS has become with that whole thing. I can think of another unnamed Dev who unapologetically portrays not approved models who has yet to be pushed off or Censored. Yes, please save us from pixilated evil! Oh noes!! Lol.

The game would've been fine as long as the stuff that breaks the rules was in a separate patch. The issue is that people were being dumb and leaking the full uncensored version. That is why the thread got locked.

Nah that's only 1 example and I know plenty of others that happen recently and there's most likely tons of other example I dont know bout for sure, they show the door to one of the new creator I follow TeenX that was using models that look the same or older than a lot of 3D content here, including this game with actually very good original character designs and he wanted to also start a game/visual novel but after he got restricted from showing his content on F95 I havent heard him talk bout that anymore and he was using characters within the rule7 with clear non pre-pub chars and since is not a set in stone rule of what is allowed and they decide what rule7 is, it's pretty much 100% on the admins/mods to like the content or not and if enough like it they even allow much younger characters, you can search Sabrina/Lorrey from TeenX and you can see where the bar is right now of content not allowed here. The only truth about rule7 is that admins decide if they allow it or not, how a char look have nothing to do with it unless is a clear 25yo+ and they decide artists characters age/if they pre-pubescent etc, not the artist(this would be fine in cases where Artists clearly wrong and everyone agree with it , but only in that case I see that's fine)
To be REALLY blunt, yet again, people want to blame one dev and not the other despite the other admitting to not being able to finish an evenings worth of renders in 3-4 days. They want to ignore this other dev has a history of failing to hit his deadlines on his own project. You know, the only game he actually advertises on his socials. They want to believe this other dev is giving ultimatums when nothing ever changes. And the ONLY reason people have an issue with the one dev is he talks about the political disaster that is the modern day AAA gaming space on his own time.
If Alorth was really some saintly dev that never fails to deliver and this was all on SirD like they want to believe, he'd have jumped ship like he keeps threatening to. To be completely clear, I don't believe it's either individual dev that is the problem. I think it's a problem that's been compounded by the two working together. SirD's politics aren't preventing the game from getting updates - it's his/their work ethic. And if he wants to complain about the state of the AAA industry, he has every right. This games update issues are nothing compared to the state of studios like BioWare, UbiSoft, CDPR, or nearly the entirety of the Western AAA studios. Imagine having 5000 employees working on one game, spending several hundred million dollars, being forced to delay the game several times and only barely crossing a million games sold after 6 months despite the game being one of the biggest IP's in the world, across all of entertainment. Indy and AA studios utterly destroyed the AAA studios last year and it all comes down to the fact that they have actively chosen to ignore the consumers.
This game isn't nearly as complex as BAD or some others, but its still one of the highest quality VN's that aren't on a heavily customized version of the engine. There's no denying they aren't hitting their deadlines, but virtually no one is atm. Yet many of those others devs are being given a pass, even if I'd argue none of them deserve one. For a good while, this was easily in my top 5 VN's and it's now nearly dropped out of the top 10 primarily due to their failure to deliver. I'd completely be willing to believe a lot of it is people having to work more outside of these projects to make ends meet, but even that is hard to believe with as widespread as the issue is. And while milking the projects is certainly the problem in some cases, I'm certain a fair number of these devs understand that the best path to success is completing projects and creating multiple revenue streams by building a catalogue of games.
Nobody cares about what SirD says about politics or the AAA gaming industry. They care that he seemingly never shuts the fuck up, yet we go months without hearing anything about the next Radiant update.
I think everybody who follows this thread is disappointed that Alorth isn't following through on his ultimatum. That said, he still needs to make money, and apparently he's been having a bad year, so I get it.
I don't disagree with you that there is blame to be shared by both of them, but looking at the situation from the outside with the little bits of information I see in this thread, it seems obvious that SirD is the bottleneck of the operation.
IIRC he never threatened to stop producing art for the project but instead taking his name off it and making his own Radiant side project with the assets.

Yeah he just said he'd quit the Radiant team. But if his "studio" continues to produce art for this project, it doesn't mean anything. So it was just PR with a fake threat. Also in their communication SD took all the blame

these guys are both worth each other. the funniest part however is the fact i can't genuinely tell whether alorth is trolling or he is just such a bad liar. usually i'd go with the second but after i saw him saying that he works/worked with a guy from north korean i can't really tell. that is something so withdrawn from reality there is no way he isn't trolling.Yeah he just said he'd quit the Radiant team. But if his "studio" continues to produce art for this project, it doesn't mean anything. So it was just PR with a fake threat. Also in their communication SD took all the blame

Fr like, how would one even go about hiring someone from North Korea?... Am I missing something? Isn't one big thing about North Korea that its citizens are cut off from the rest of the world? Lmao, but one guy that is privileged enough to have an internet connection, chooses to put his life on the line to draw for porn games? It's so insane that I almost wanna believe it haha.

He posted an update on Patreon. This is what he said on Discord:
I'm very skeptical of the reasoning for the massive delay but hopefully he pulls through...
