You're right about everything except one thing. This pirate forum is full of people who stopped donating because of the scam you're talking about. These people understand that if Ocean continues his manipulations, they won't want to come back, and the remaining subscribers will start leaving. Even idiots get smarter over time, and you can't keep milking them forever.If we get an update with nearly 9000 renders + animations in 21 months, that's the same as 3x3000 render updates every 7 months. Ocean just shot himself in the foot by trying to release three update's worth of material as one update.
So we'll see what the case is when an update finally drops ...at some point. The longer it gets drawn out, the less interested people become in finding out what's happened. I can guarantee this thread will be 'fun' whenever there's an update though.
People on a pirate forum who pay nothing seem really worried about fraud.

There are also a few people who have an account only to discuss a specific game and share their opinion. Because sometimes on Discord or Patreon there are fans who might not like what you say — or even the creator themselves

mafia collaborated to kill Ocean for evading taxes and for revealing secrets of the Zane mafia in his first AVN.
Yeah, the update is on its way. The abandoned tag will disappear as quickly as Summer.

Honestly I was left with the doubt of what happened with summer, I have theories but there are not enough bases to confirm them
I guess one of the attractions of the game was knowing what happened to him and how he could involve several people within the MC's circle

Not true. I was 'spewing' over WIAB for 4-5 days, taking breaks to cool my ass and have a smoke, It's quite possible to stretch it out for a week or two, depending on how deeply the
has penetrated.

I recall his roadmap for the "Zane-universe" having 5 games total, so wouldn't be surprised.

Summer comes from a mafia family, and she was removed from the MC because he's a "rootless dog"... or like Willy Zane — a member of a wiped-out family.i would love to hear your theories pls

Everything has always been Mafia. Even today I can imagine Ocean and Regium discussing overarching ideas for the novels:
"And the raccoon jumps past the MC and Maja, running away from the secret animal testing lab run by the Mafia..." *Ocean says*.
*Regium quickly interjects* - "The same lab that produced the Holgerson's cat!!... Made to keep Stefan under surveillance."
- "SIEGBERT!", *Ocean yells.* "That will be his name...Siegbert..."
It was all Mafia all along. Can't believe I missed it for those first 4 years of development. I should have paid closer attention.

100% agreed. It's scary how a couple of these companies have so much power that they can dictate the commerce done on entire platforms, what can be sold and what can't be. Payment processor companies should be treated like utility companies with the duopoly they got going on. Not to mention, even the reason is stupid to begin with. I'm all for protecting kids from mature content, but that should be limited to the minors. Why are adults getting censored? Fuck Collective Shout. Thousands of indie creators like Ocean losing their primary sources of income because some stupid traditionalists can't stop clutching their pearls.
