I can't say I speak for everyone
Oh thank god for that... phew!
Because I can certainly tell you right now that I am in
stark contrast with most of your comment.
Delane bores me, and the writing in general for this game isn't particularly enthralling since nothing happens.
Cool, you don't like a character. That's fine.
But you certainly can't say that the writing in the game isn't
enthralling, let alone boring. Because I'm still following the game since early 2017... because of the damn good writing! You could say that I a myself am enthralled... (Just don't tell Rein!)
Hell, at some points in the game I just plain dislike Alexia, perhaps through no fault of mine. Either way, I'm not going around giving shit to the authors by quite blatantly saying that their writing sucks (Which is largely what you insinuate when you say that their work 'bores' you.)
But that just plain isn't true. I may sometimes dislike Alexia, but I cannot fault the writing behind her, she's a well-written character.
Perhaps the writing is boring for you, but certainly not for most of the other users who have played the game, and thus in this case, you are more likely an outlier in this case. Because out of all the words I could use to describe the story or the writing in this game, boring is *Not* In my vocabulary.
Now, you could certainly critique the game for so many other things. Hell, Items being a damn good talking point, or the lack of a map. I have been pissy myself about some of the features in the game!
But being a dick about the writing... Hah, Get the hell outta here! No, not literally. The quality and consistency of the writing, at least from 2017 onwards, has frankly been very high (Spelling mistakes and ellipses aside). If you feel that its boring, fine. You do you. But It certainly hasn't been boring to me.
People are willing to wait for worthwhile updates so long as there's communication.
Please tell me you are not going to critique
Seeds of Chaos about their Communication/Updating schedule. Because I need only have two words about them in this regard... "Fucking Impressive".
If this were Contrary to that point, people would have been forming lynchmobs about a week ago upon knowledge that Seeds of Chaos is now going 'Bi-monthly'. Yet I have not seen one comment here that has been to the negative on this point. In fact, reception over on Patreon on this move has been largely positive.
Meanwhile, over in 'Kingdom of Deception' land, Nomo is probably afraid of getting hung, drawn and quatered by his fanbase (Or perhaps, ex-fanbase). The reason? Shitty updating schedule and terrible Communication (And fairly poor writing after Sierra lee left, I might add).
You are free to critique Seeds of Chaos on the grounds of 'Poor updates/communication' but you probably won't get a large following of supporters.
Coming on here to defend your game isn't exactly going to change my mind on whether or not I think an update with a handful of scenes, a spattering of art and very little story progression.
Yeah, I don't think that Winter is here exactly to 'Defend' the game.
Rather, I'd say that Winter (And perhaps to a much lesser extent Rein) is here largely to talk to people 'In general', about things in the game, and perhaps to communicate from time to time how things are going. You can take from this, what you will.
They would tell you themselves that there are things that
need fixing. But I'd rather have that then straight fucking silence for three months, like half the games on f95zone!
I don't care about what you think of what you worked on, you're as biased and unreliable of a source as humanly possible in this situation.
And you aren't yourself unbiased?
The only thing I've been hearing from you since August has been piss and vinegar.
I guess in this case, I don't care what you think either.
Certainly, there are things that need fixing in the game, but pretty much your entire arguement has been based pretty much solely on your own biased opinion. You don't like the game, and that's fine. But if you are going to make a comment about how the game is boring, have a point, or better yet, be on point. You've done neither nor been both.
You've castigated the writing, where there is nothing much there that can be faulted, and in doing so, have made yourself appear rather like an idiot. You've also briefly made it seem that you are being critical of their updating schedule or their communication... another mistake (As far as I am concerned), because Seeds of Chaos has been rock-solid on that front also.
Seriously, If I was ever to attack Seeds of Chaos (Which I have already done before, in a subtle manner), I would do so at it's weak points. And there are quite a few of those, and the Dev team already know this, and are already trying to solve many of these issues. Attacking them for their writing... that's piss-poor effort!
