Doubt it comes out this month. How many times have we heard the "should be ready by xx/xx" by now?

That statement is far-right and it offends me!
idk, i am not them but if they get paid every month you do the math.....That's what he earned for doing a few weeks of work a year? Damn.

- $10.00 USDSir, that is quite offensive. His name is Pablo and he lives in Bolivia.
you are mistaken, Pablo in Bolivia is the guy selling garbage bags full of placer gold (one bag holds 500 kilograms), he works in partnership with Abidemi in Western Africa.
Going to TRY (and failed) to make this short. Alorth has gone on the record stating that often times his contract work is his primary focus, putting Radiant coming in at best third in regards to his work priorities. He's admitted he had an afternoons worth of work to do on the game and was intentionally putting it off for several days w/o a justifiable reason. Unlike SirD, he does not have any mention of Radiant on any of his socials, nor has he and it was never due to some ultimatum he gave SirD. It's just that unimportant to him. All we have to believe SirD is at fault at all is Alorth's word, which I'm all too happy to believe. Yet I'm also going to believe that a good portion of it is his own fault when he's unintentionally admitted it. Especially when he's just as bad in regards to updating his game that has nothing to do with SirD.
SirD has posted a whopping 10 times in 2 weeks, most coming on weekends or holidays. The vast majority of his activity on Twitter is actually retweets, which is something that takes a second and is easy to do dozens of times in a single trip to the bathroom. Most of his actual tweets come late at night within a 2hr window, leaving 14hrs per day to be productive assuming he is the rare person that actually gets 8hrs of sleep. And many of the criticisms about his activity directly address his criticisms and political stances, if not directly addressing the topic. I do think he needs to unplug from it for his own mental health, but people are playing it off like he's terminally online, which isn't the case. Nothing about his behavior on Twitter can actually be used to blame the ridiculous update cycle. And it's completely ridiculous that it's even been mentioned when there are several devs that are even worse, but their activity on their socials never gets called out.
I've spent nearly 3hrs on Twitter scrolling through his posts and reviewing the times, which is more collective time than I've spent on the platform in my life. Ya, The Game Awards is certainly an event that fully triggered him. Ya, he sets out to specifically troll people at times. And yet nothing on his Twitter would justify blaming his activity there for the overlong delays of Radiant. He could be the slowest typist in the world and his Twitter activity still wouldn't necessarily impact his work on Radiant. Now, if true, his slow typing definitely would negatively impact his ability to do the code work and write the script, but that is still a separate issue from his activity on social media. Considering Hentai Writer is even MORE prolific in this manner and he's not being called out for it, that once again implies that the real problem is what he's saying and not how much he's saying on there. Especially since HW's positions are in direct opposition to those of SirD, which is specifically why I'm pointing this out. And if HW was working on Radiant, we'd be lucky to have part 2 at this point. After all, HW is 2 months late in providing the update to the update where he was supposed to add all the content he had failed to add at in the initial update.
Most of what he's saying shouldn't even fall into the realm of politics, but that's how ridiculous our society has gotten in the last decade. The best person for the job should get the job. Businesses that want to stay in business shouldn't openly and publicly attack the people they're financially dependent on. Insert meme about the never ending debates over Barbie vs the utter lack of debate around He-Man, GI Joes and every male hero/superhero ever. A single modder shouldn't be able to make Kay Vess look like Humberly González within a couple of hours when the actual developers who worked on the game for years, with more than 5,000 people working on that game, couldn't manage it at all. He's can be abrasive in his comments, but even his trolling is tame compared to the people he's engaging with. Most of his trolling literally amounts to posting caps of himself utterly triggering people after posting some of the least divisive shit you could say. It's dumb, and that's the entire point of him doing it. It's sad that he goes out of his way to do it, but we all found the comedy in it when we've accidentally done it ourselves. And if he wants to get a bit tipsy after a hard days work and do something to entertain himself before bed, that's his right.
It could be worse... SirD could be the dev of Casual Desires, who got so jaded after the game failed Steams review that he stopped working on the game for nearly a year. Then got upset by people calling him out for his behavior, when not being approved by Steam did nothing to damage his ability to monetize the game as he had already been doing for the 2 years up to that point. Or the dev of the Chloe18 series, who stopped work on his primary series to focus on a side project, then demanded people financially support him before returning to work on the project that he abandoned. People stopped supporting him because he refused to work on the project they were paying for him to work on, and now can't understand why people won't just trust that he's going to restart work on his abandoned project. Yet they don't get the fraction of the hate SirD is, despite being completely unhinged.
tl'dr
thanks for typing that all out though.
we just want the game, if he decides to stop eating & drinking thats on him, not us
so many of us have been having a bad year, maybe even more than one.
the last time i hired someone from north korea they were a really hard worker, was never late, excelled at every aspect of their duties, never complained about anything, not even that their pay was going directly to Kim Jong Un
I will say this is an actual possibility these days, with reports of much of the art that is too expensive to produce in the West being contracted out specifically to China and North Korea. They don't individually have access to the outside world, but their employers do. I just have serious doubts that Alorth would have direct contact with the artist in that case. It would actually be a member of the team explicitly hired to handle such interactions and report on all of them.
Still, it's far more likely that any outsourcing would be done with someone from Vietnam or South Korea, who demand a better than 99% quality rating while paying comparatively low wages. For example, in tech, quality ratings in the US can dip down to 85% to keep costs down, which is why we tend to contract out to those countries. For example, if you buy an "American" GPU, the boards and processors all come from Vietnam and S Korea and at most it's slapped together using cooling solutions ideally designed in Germany, just built to the spec of an American company. Another example would be any modern form of memory or storage. All of the components are built in South Korea, most likely by Hynix or Samsung, and then slapped together by third parties and sold as if it were purely their product. And, like with car manufacturers from the region, to keep tariffs down they ship the core components to the US and only then combine them to make a functional product.
Sorry for the tangent, I just find it entertaining how so much of our shit comes from there and we're completely blind to it bc they use loopholes to keep prices down and quality up.
regardless? should be done by the end of month? what month this one or next one and so? and it should be done but no tested or no released or or or? cause with this developer we cant never be sure...
it'll be done in early august 2024, i don't know how many times i have to say this
I'm sorry, but I didn't read all of that. I don't have a Twitter account, and I genuinely could not care less about what SirD posts there. It seems like you're saying Alorth is more to blame than SirD is for all the delays. That seems like quite the reach to me based on everything I've seen in this thread over the years, but I won't defend him because you seem much more informed about the situation than me.
All I know is I'm some random guy pirating their game, so I have no room to complain about all the delays. That said, I can still observe from the outside that the development of this AVN is a joke, regardless of who is at fault.

So you spent three hours on it without posting anything but your judgement of his activities is the times he posted on it, not just possibly spent in it wallowing in the hatred (which cannot be measured by outside observers unless we have access to his phone, to be fair). Got it. He has other socials by the way and yes, a lot of his fans here and especially on discord are in his political spectrum or further in. Yet they still complain about his twitter posts so there you go. The most likely reason is that SirD is the writer for the game we play and the game we talk about in this forum thread, not Hentai Writer.
I almost forgot to address the motte-and-bailey of it all. This is called the motte-and-bailey. You start with "the best person for the job should get the job". That statement is unassailable. Then you extend it outward and begin to vaguely gesticulate what you think best person for the job means. The vague definition is part of the charm. For example, if the person getting the job ever gets celebrated for qualities not related to his job, just a simple yay we got this for that, obviously then it follows he must not be the most qualified for the job and only got it because of XYZ. And if assailed, go back to "I just want the best person for the job to get the job, man".
The company you keep catches up to you. That's why I am not surrounded with furries. People might think I am one.

What a liar this guy is, telling you that he realized he didn't like some scenes “before the vacations” when you've got Alorth saying he couldn't finish the renderings before Christmas...
Radiant gets a new chapter by the end of this month... or it does not.
What Will happen is new content will show up on F95 using latest updates, and this can be counted on Every day.
So - find something or several somethings to enjoy there or just rehash variations on previous posts made 3/6/12+ months ago.
I stop in for a brief check of this thread a few times a week, but I'm focused on enjoying my free time with the backlog of AVNs I already have.
Whatever your choice of activities, enjoy it.
Life is too short to be pissing and moaning about something this inconsequential that you cannot control.
Cheers!!
