Man actually having played 0.16 now this really is a joke. The earlier comments making fun of Velminth changing game mechanics based on the games he personally plays at the time actually seems true lmao. He's trying really hard to emulate Project Moon right now with Library of Ruina and Limbus Company themes and mechanics.
Just you wait. Next update its gonna be Saria Lethal Company edition or some such shit :KEK:

Bro actually made me laugh out loud, good one. Currently downloading this mess of a project, remember when all of combat was remade into card game, don't know what to expect this time.

Yeah this is unfortunately an unsub tier update

I even paid the $25 to get my Lamia put in the game as pixel art and he did great on that, but the game as it is now lacks the battlefucking which was the entire draw of the game to me up to this point. I see no world where Velminth ever goes back to the original vision for the game, which leaves no other options for me to continue supporting.
Based on patreon trackers he's lost only 10% of his month subs since 0.16 announcement last month to about USD1300 per month. Unsubbing is the only way, even then dev said didn't need the money.

The funny thing being that if Saria's background was a disposable no name scrapper, it would be leagues better in the story department (and closer to the original vision of picking your own background/upbringing/lifeexperiences) compared to the useless babysitter "elite" samurai mess we have right now. :ROFLMAO:

Why does it always happen like this?
Maybe it is because i don't know dick about game dev, but surely it is better to "freeze" this project and release new one as separate.

Oh good to know, so he/she is an ARTIST artist. Just does it for the passion and self-fulfillment. Let them do it.
If they don't care about making a business out of it, then fair.
This is like a politician being like "I don't give a shit what my voters want, no matter if they voted me or not"
fair.

I gotta say this is hilarious. Sometimes remakes are justified, but changing your opinion about an (already decent and popular) game in terms of fundamental mechanics and setup is not gonna win you a lot of fans unfortunately. Real shame. It's a shame too if it's not being announced "hey im gonna completely remake it just FYI". Instead people possibly pour money into the project expecting next update to have some cool additions, and then it takes a long time and dev is like "well, I didnt ADD anything, I just made it again. Tehe"

This is the first time I've seen a review bombardment on a pirated porn game site.
Whatever, I am never played this game, but it's on my watch list. Did he (dev) removed battle fuck system, and added a half cooked card battle system or something? Is that all?

I haven't given the new update a try yet but god everyone's reactions and the new reviews got me terrified

Honestly though why would you remake a game from ground up especially when you had something as great as what the game was already? Is this an early April Fools joke?

for the people that are wondering why people are upset, it would be like the devs of cyberpunk when the game had its glorious shitshow of a launch instead of fixing it (which they did a amazing job of) going ya know what we are not gonna fix the game and instead remake it and turn it into a cyberpunk farming sim :D which sure im sure a lot of people be like okay weird but cool while the rest of the people be like were is the cyberpunk fps rpg game you have been hyping of for 7 years? and this game didnt need to be fixed and wasnt in a bad spot so dont think Saria was a broken game it worked quite well the battle system and the corruption while bare bonus was very good the cg from losing were great i loved the cave one or the fall a check and get hypnosis from the weird eye thing but now its all pretty much gone for and replaced for whatever reason a card game in a VN.

What playing library of ruina does to a man

jokes aside I originally found the world traversal very unweildy and awkward but liked the old combat system, despite the massive grind it entails.

I like this version of the game more but its normal for people to be pissed off that he pulled that much of a bait and switch.
That's generally the problem with patreon based backing, as steering the ship in an unintended direction is bound to severely piss people off.

This is not what people paid for, and the dev could've wrapped up this game and put this idea on the backburner.

now we need hero to make his own version of saria and see how dev die from butthurt
That is what I was thinking, a group of fans could take the legacy version and build their own game, following the direction that the game should take. As the Anal-only Ambassador, it would be a shame if this game gets thrown away to the trash by its own developer.
