Sometimes it really helps to step into the shoes of the developer instead of pointing out mistakes that are not them:
- covering Mike's ass is a funny tidbit that took me an hour, not a whole day,
- open your place and work in it as the only person without a crew 7 days a week without vacations, we will see when you burn out,
- the debt - this is only an advance, for the extension of the repayment date, not the installment itself. Would you rather I gave $500 and you had to click on characters in the bar and things at neighbor's every day to earn that money, instead of doing other things in the game, HELL OF A LOOP?
- as for everything else, the answer is very simple - THIS IS EARLY ACCESS - imagine I work ~180 hours a month at my main job + I work on this game an average of 6-8 hours a day, including weekends, and yet I created "only" 500 renders in a month, why? Because it's fucking time-consuming. Why did I open the park and give nothing there? Because it is the seed for new scenes. Why are there no scenes there now? Because I was only able to physically create five this month. Why then did I not continue some of the threads? Because the progression of the plot requires that some things be done at the same time, rather than one thread all the way to the end (imagine Riley making out with the dean, but in the bar she's disgusted as Wesley touches her). Sometimes it's worth pulling the stick out of your ass, have a great weekend
Hey, I answered the question above. We have a huge plans for that thread and that was just the beginning, the 200$ might sounds funny, but if you count it as advance to the main payment by a week, not as true installment, then it is not. Also we wanted to skip the grinding, which it would be with 500$/week.
Those are in bonus content.
