That not name calling, that just stating a fact -)
Badge of honor, I will wear it proudly, thank you.

Ladydarkness if a new version is released and you decided to make an update patch for it, Would it be for 0.4.1 or 0.4.5?
She has the latest version (v0.4.5) here: https://f95zone.to/threads/subverse-v0-4-5-studio-fow.77900/post-8237578
And I can confirm it works perfectly. Hope she keeps putting these out with each update as she does a great job. I have been happy to seed these.

0.4.5 because I already did a post for 0.4.1 to 0.4.5 that unfortunately the update was not possible so I had to upload the fully game again. So it will be for 0.4.5 the next update if the update worth because you know if update is too big is better upload a torrent or something, I'll see when out a new update.

So is this update worth playing yet?

Also, can you guys shut the fuck up about abortion. This is clearly not the place for it. Take it to private messaging if you want to discuss it.

Yeesh that's what the other guy is bringing up? Yeah defo don't regret hitting ignore on that. As for the game, this was only part of the update, which introduced Sova and her people, a boss fight, and a few galaxies for combat. Lewd-wise foreplay videos were added to the previous girls's recruitment scenes. Sova's scenes and the rest will be included in the latter half of the update. You'd likely be better off waiting, seeing as getting it here requires a redownload of everything.

Read the posts, it was your boyfriend, Joshua, who brought up the abortion issue, not me. I just replied

Honestly i've long moved on from this thread but still checks it sometime (since it sometimes appear in the latest replies tab) and surely enough i still see the same 2 clowns jumping at every opportunity to defend this game lol

I really do hope that you guys are actually secretly being paid by the dev to be their, idk, f95 influencer or something? because otherwise it's just too sad

Yeah, imagine being told translation will come once the game is complete... in different languages, not just Chinese. The outrage of not get special treatment.. because.. you are Chinese..
Sorry I know little about the whole thing and just happened to see this ranking picture. I thought the developers were not planning to add Chinese to the game even if the game is completed, which was concluded from Chinese comments on Steam. Maybe there is some kind of misunderstanding or rumor? I find Chinese language seems to be included in the game's planned localizations, but they do not think so and keep giving negative feedback.

This sums it up....

"Adult game "Subverse" was review bombed to "mostly negative" on steam by angry Chinese. The whole incident began when many mainland Chinese buyers repeatly requiring the developers to add Chinese localization, however, the developer responded by saying "The game is not allowed on Steam Chinese region and is against the Chinese law, hence we will not make simplified Chinese localization, and we will only add traditional Chinese localization"

And then FOW mentioned they didn't see as much backing from mainland China from their backend data as the Chinese claimed, which created a lot of anger from the Chinese thinking FOW didn't value their support meanwhile FOW just stating a fact. If a lot of Chinese players hide behind vpn's and buy the game pretending to be from other places in the world, well that is on them, data show what it does.
Players in mainland China did participate in donations. Many fans of FOW in mainland China can only use VPN to access FOW due to network problems. This may be why it seems that there is very little support from mainland China, but Chinese players say that they have given The main reason for the support, this game has a good degree of discussion in China's major forums and video sites and social chat platforms

FOW's definitely aware how much China's folks were interested. It sucks that their country is so locked down on adult content. It was difficult for folks to even back the kickstarter, since it'd reject their credit cards. We noticed many spots freeing up during the last few hours of the campaign.

As for the translation bits, it was an unfortunate miscommunication, and they've since shown the list of languages they intend the game to be translated into. From their December Q and A:

So they did cave on the "simplified vs traditional localization" of Chinese then.. Feels a bit like reward kids for being naughty.
Don't really want to lash out on Chinese players, but regarding steam and review bombing they got a terrible track record. How they went after "Little Witch Nobeta" really up there.

At the end of the day, they can do whatever they want with their reviewed copies.
Yep. It's funny when I see people bitching about so-called "review bombing" but never pointing out the flip side "review boosting" where someone had a review that just has a smiley face or says "boobies".

Ultimately to the Chinese folks writing those negative reviews, it's obviously an important issue to them even though it's not an issue to someone who speaks English as their primary language which doesn't make it any less legitimate.

This is why I always tell people just go through and read the thorough reviews both good and bad so you have an idea of what the game is actually like. And on Steam you can filter reviews to only include reviews where the player has a certain # of hours in it which I strongly recommend as well.

The last part of your post is very important. There are lots of "best game!", "boobies!", and other meme replies of people who still have not played more than an hour of the game. Subverse had a near endless amount of release hype reviews from people excited enough by the game's initial EA release that they praised it before playing it. This is why it's important to look at the game's long term reviews, but too much emphasis on the game's negative reviews gets blamed on the Chinese, which is why I tend to butt in. Games like Cyberpunk 2077 had a shitload of boosted release reviews, then people played the game.
