I wonder if the game still breaks if you don't choose anyone. (I didn't romance anyone and then came to a point where the game hit an error and forced me into a relationship with one character retroactively.)
how could you?

Its abandoned, the dev took the money and moved to a tiny island state with no extradition laws.
And now all jokes aside, I don't know what it is... Either Stew got lazy or he is really trying to bite off more than he can chew.
I just know that I am fed up with it and I'll probably cancel my Patreon sub. Last update we got was 13 months ago! And it's not like he is posting regular status apdates either, they stopped too.
After disappearing for almost a month, he made an "apology post" and disappeared again(almost a month now).
I just lost interest in the game after not playing it for a while with no new story.

The Steam move is a lot of work.

I don't think it's only the steam thing, he also works on the remaster of The Author. When he was working on chapter 6 it took him a year too and I got no interest in playing a game that updates once a year. Definitely not paying for it.
Whatever his reasons are, my interest in the game is almost gone due to his long update cycles.

I remember how - after reading the devlog in december/january - i foolishly thought that the update will be there in february. I thought to remember that the dev is updating quite fast.

This just takes ages now, is this supposed to be a 6k+ render update or whats up?

Yeah, I'm not a backer, so I don't see that stuff. I understand your frustrations, and sympathize, but I'm playing so many games rn that take forever to update. I don't mind it, I just need to start a new run every update to remember wtf is going on.

I loved The Author and Unbroken a lot. Loved the characters, main and LI and supporting. I still will buy it on Steam when it's out.

It's the Steam release, happened to other devs. Steam is the biggest market for games, so better cause a good first impression if you want to get the big bucks. The update should have come out during March/April but here we are, I hope the update is a big one finger crossed.

Yeah, an error page saying that a path was undefined or something and it reset to me being in a relationship with a character because it apparently didn't have any alternate scene for the story segment.
AVNs tend to work better if you don't play as an ascetic. Do you also complain that a VN is too short and doesn't have enough content when playing that way?

"Can he navigate the dangerous world of professional sports, while managing to keep himself and those around him safe and sane? Or will he finally succumb to the pressure around him and break?"

Is that a rethorical question or a true choice option ?

Can you really break and lose everything ? And do you get a black game over screen , or do you have a real path waiting for you ?

Unhappy ending do seem possible, as can degenerate or noble character developments.
