well yeah but I mean... well im kinda sad too so at least you are not alone in that
I disagree with this. I think it's understandable to get burnt out if things go in such a way where you basically have to start over again and probably not getting any further than they did in the previous version. It can be frustrating.

I'm with you though. This one felt like it had such an incredible amount of promise and seeing its steady decline over the past like, 3 months has sucked ass. This was, at one point, my most looked forward to game on this entire site
Ruin your game and then stop development OMEGALUL
Shoulda just kept working on the original.

What the hell do any of the menu options on the map screen in this update even mean? Nothing is explained here, jeez it's like every update the dev adds 5 convoluted things that aren't explained. And the game glitched out when I lost so now there's a permanent trio of dicks and cum splatter on the map screen for me.
Everyone keeps saying he should have just made the original rpg, but we're all ignoring we never got more than a single chapter for a reason. It's impressive enough Vel picked up music. Learning pixel art, implementing combat mechanics, level design, progression systems, and writing all at the same time is a steep hill to climb. I think he probably should finished everything remaining incomplete content in v13 or v15, concluded the game with the single chapter, and saved any future ideas for a new less ambitious project to continue the story. Barring that putting it on hold after overhaul is reasonable.
You don't feel sad for the porn game.
You feel sad because of the gap between your expectation and reality.
You would not feel sad if you had no expectations.
You have brought sadness into your existence by craving a world that did not come to be.
You carved a weakness into your heart by longing for a dream.
You crippled yourself with childish wishes.
You must cast aside desire to find appeasement.
You must free yourself from the shackles of emotional attachment.
You can only be the master of your destiny by shedding your self.
Through the heaven and earth, I alone am the honored one.
Have a nice day.
Hindsight 20/20, but yeah if he just polished up pre-version 16 Saria and had you entering the city as the official ending (which it may as well be) to the game then I think he'd receive almost nothing short of praise. It's a common sentiment in the thread if you go several pages back. To repeat something that's been said 100s of times: if versions 16-17 were its own separate thing then there'd be practically no anger, but only praise and excitement.

Seeing this in the latest updates list is like walking past your ex who was super cute and nice but now she's a homeless crack addict. Feels bad.
Another sign that trying to hybridise between a VN and an actual game with gameplay is always a mistake, at best it just results into something good that's still just worst than what it could've been if it sticked to either approaches, and with how rampant VNs are currently, it's much more commendable to stick to gameplay.
This game already was an actual game and a decent one at that. There was no reason to remake it into a recipe that always fails, especially if one of the concern is the effort to be put into the game; I don't know where this misconception that seemingly every fucking devs fall into came from, but a VN does not take less effort than making an actual game. Streamlining the content you put out so that dozens of hours of work result into something that gets consumed within 30-ish minutes just means you have to work more by extension to reach the same level of playtime (who'll keep people busy instead of complaining about your small releases) that even a basic ass gameplay loop can achieve. If you make a VN because you are too scared about the "effort" of thinking about gameplay, you are self-sabotaging yourself.

Oh well, saw it coming.
BTW, SVS seems to still have the 0.13 version. That's the BF one before cards came around right? (It has every one from 13 to 17 I think)
Someone might wanna storage that for posterity or something? Since K2S is just crap.

I must say the old version was a lot better than this one older version had exploration, quest-reward system that feels like you improve gain new abilities and exploring and advancing in the story with different ways (You could go naked fighter win enemies by get them cum. Or go wild kill them all) But in this one no exploration no quest-reward no options to fight you must do same fight over and over again and sexual interactions in fights are a lot worse, I mean it got hold on right now but if it will be continued in the future, i hope it will be updated on the old version one. That was a lot better than this. Also there is some cg's you can see after filling up the bar under the first location how to fill up is so stupid you spam dick symbol and skip time till it got full. I mean new build is just bad.

Now imagine being patreon and get cucked just like this
From what I recall, weren't most of his patreon supporters lapping up the new remade version? They'll probably continue supporting if that's true.

Don't know. I hope they enjoy what's left of this project, though. Next one will be completed, that's for sure
