It's crazy to me that all It takes is one update to take longer for people to start complaining and even somehow try to say that Kalyha is going to reach icstor levels, completely ignoring the fact that the dev has kept full communication and even released a new game since the last update.Kalyha is literally one of the most consistent devs on the platform and people wont even give him the benefit of the doubt.
Personally, it's just disappointing to see that it'll be 3 months when 0.21 arrives next month since 0.20 was early December. Just sad to think we could only see Adrianna 4 times a year now
It's not like the new game will go away so it's always going to be late from now on
Star wars Knights of the Old Republic has a fantastic story, Baldur's gate was pretty cool, Dragon Age origins too, I think you should download Steam though, this is not the page you are looking for. Just my humble opinion.
Can't disagree, sadly.
, it's can't continue for long time. So we have to get used to that 2-3 months now is normal time for updates. After all, we haven't much(I believe literally zero) of examples of solo developers who doing it faster, especially after more that 1 year from first version. I mean between games with decent story and hundreds of renders, so text games like Deegrees of Lewdity doesn't count, and half of DoL's changes - community made.
The whole burn out seems like your grasping for straws to make an excuse because someone who is burned out from working too much does not decide hey I need even more work so lets start a second game....Can't disagree, sadly.
But those agressive guys, who blame Kalyha in milking patreons.. aaargh, it's so stupid. Milking what? 450$/month, 20-30% of which Patreon takes for himself, right? And all of you just plays RHC for free, you can't say anything to dev. (╯‵□′)╯︵ ┻━┻
I think Kalyha just shows signs of burning out. He making this game for ~2 years now, while having an regular job, it's must be pretty exhausting, financial support is definitely not impressive, but it turns to be like second job, with impatient community keep demanding "when? when? faster! when? stop extending developing time! you are like other corrupted developers!". That's must be quite dissapointing.
And if Kalyha really feels that way, I prefer him to announce and take break from developing RHC for half year, than to abandon it after few more updates.
Also, I guess, update every 3-4 weeks, like it was in 2020 - yearly 21, is not normal, it's exceptional. It was kinda artistic obsession of an artist who starting something new and feeling full of excitement, so can work on it even instead of sleeping or taking food, you know this type of mood if you did play Dwarf Fortress
I guess you barelly know how creativity and psychology behind it works. To lose interest in an idea/conseption, when it turned to not new anymore, and abandon it unfinished - most common act in arts.
Creative burnout is real but the solution would not be to add another very, very similiar project to get away from creative burnout. I guess you barely understand the finer point of nuance as opposed to excuses for excuses sake.
Damn man what do think will happen with your constant posting? You've asked this for years. It's not like Kalyha is going to feel pressured to release the update sooner because of you or anyone else. We all get it, it's going to be long time between updates from now on so please get that through your head and move on like everyone else here has
So you deciding what would be?
