But also, what does "finished" even mean for a free indie game? For a commercial product, it means that the game is ready to be sold. For this type of game, a "Completed" tag means that the developer is no longer actively developing it, which we don't actually want if the game is any good. It's like "Abandoned", except that the end of development is planned.

Obviously, we want all of the promised features to be implemented and the main story to be completed. (The main story is done, other than the prom.) After that, there's no reason not to keep adding scenes for existing characters, and adding new characters, indefinitely.

So the other thing that makes the question frustrating is that we don't actually want the game to be "finished". (It's already finished from the perspective that there are no showstopping bugs or obviously missing features. You can play everyone's route to completion, but there is no "good ending" game over.) We just want more content than we have now.

The problem here is people not being patient and complaining about the game and when it's coming out that's the issue and sorry it's what it is... deal with it if you want a good game and a wonderful experience.

Haha, you people do understand that development is continuing and DC is adding more to the map correct? LMFAO.

There are going to be more character roots and they aren't fucking done yet! - hot fucking damn.

You people need to stop worrying about stuff and worry about how it's going to be fucking good.

Right. And how many indie "finished" games (here or on steam, epic, etc) end up having bugfixes, dlc, special editions down the line? They weren't "finished," they just hit a point where they needed/wanted/were required to say it was done -- even when it wasn't or had more content planned. The idea of a "finished" game is an old-fashioned view of the industry. It's not a physical product, so things can always be adjusted, altered, and added (for a premium or as a show of gratitude).

Why do you even bother answering that. The day the game is finished, all those complainers come back five minutes later, to complain that there is not enough content and that it only took four minutes to fast-skip through the game.

New way to pad your post count : quote yourself daily until the game is finished in 4+ years. People still won't know most of the stuff in there anyway

 

[stabrepete]

is the android version prepatched. and if not is there a version with the incest and naughty tribute already patched in?

Nope to everything. And if you want to talk about the mod, go to its thread, not here

6 years and the game is still not finished...

It's almost like game development is hard or something... Or this is maybe the reason why hand-drawn forms of media are not produced as much... Or having a game which by design is to expand DURING development per a shareholder's (your) request is a terrible business model. Or maybe the main storyline IS done, and HAS been done, and this is essentially dlc and sidequest completion.

Game development is hard? I think you need to cite your sources for that wild claim!

Wimp. Only a true lord of reusing pre-rendered 3D asset-swap models to dish out vapid updates once per week is worthy of being called a "real dev". DC is obviously a scamlord hellbent on milking people donating ~3$ a month to show their love for the game. Only gods of dev-time like ICstor could be used as examples on how to make a game correctly

while I mostly agree with you, comparing the 0.01 map to the new tech map is absolutely ridiculous. Many of the expanded places on this new map are already in place so using this comparison is biased as hell. Still excited for the wide screen but it will be years before most of these new locations have real use.

 

[Monstrous Moonshine]

The level of simpery here is truly astounding.

 

[zol002]

They sell pills for lactose intolerance , you could try some of those then maybe the milk would not bother you so much

I am no shill, I don't get money and to be honest I have not played the game either , been waiting on the Tech update to start it. I also am not supporting the game with money. Its just out of the 3k plus pages of this thread there are probably a 1000 posts claiming milking. It gets old reading it all the time. All these claims from people who probably are not paying anyway so why are they constantly posting? because they are trolls thats why so why am I not aloud to make fun of them? As far as having a life I will give you that

[DeFuZe]

I stopped following this game for 2 years. Is it close to the end? I mean the overall story.

Which characters received scenes in the latest "miniupdate"?

1) Odette - visit her in the evening
2) Odette - visit her in the garage

4) Ivy - new content start recommended- go pick up stuff you ordered
5) Ivy - new content start recommended- go pick up stuff you ordered #2
6) Sara - new content start recommended - progress Roxxy's route

The actual "main story" is done, but it'll take years to complete the whole dating/prom thing.
