More like mid to late 2024 or even early 2025. When it comes to this game and its release schedule never ever hope for a good outcome. That being said, keep on milking dev, you are making bank and people are still excusing this shite behaviour.

The developer is gonna give one update a month and no one should be happy with that. The updates themselves are just proof of working and give no context to the work or any expectation of how much is left. Him calling it the "first monthly update" implies there's going to be a lot more.
This entire tech update was a mistake. I don't think anyone would have wanted it if they knew how long it would take and no one is going to be satisfied with the result unless it is basically a whole new game's worth of content.

Honestly I also have some question marks as to the timing of his decision to do monthly updates after all this time. It could just be nothing, but it's not far fetched to think that he's finally feeling some pressure.

I've been saying this for years, this game would have only benefited from a smaller scope with more focus. That being said, a lot of the fetishes were established very early on, they still could've been implemented in a better way instead of adding way too many ground to cover tho.
Well, even so ... still at least some progress1% every two years is a worth it pace. Excited for the update

How about to stop writing stupid things. The abandoned Tag get´s every Game without Update after couple of months AND without any communication. Dark Cookie keeps posting on his Patreon and makes live streams, so Summertime Saga will never get the abandoned Tag until Dark Cookie disapears.

They are. What they SHOULD have done is turn Debbie into Dad's girlfriend and Jenny into her daughter from a previous relationship, that way it makes more sense for MC to live with her after his father died and you get enough of an familial vibe while still skirting around Patreon policies by not having them be married. That small detail really makes a difference since the wouldn’t be "legal incest" (which is the entire issue with step-incest).
He already has a good part of the Ronda update art done. I wouldn't be surprised if that update comes right after the Tech.

I would argue that for a game of this nature "almost everything is drawn by hand" after they get their shit together with the Tech update and all the code biz that is slowing them down the updates will take less time. Specially after their art is done. Call it wishful thinking or whatever, but a single route is not comparable to re-building most of the game.

I agree with your last sentence, but that wasn't my argument. My argument is that people shouldn't expect any change in the development cycles from before the tech update timeframe. 2-4 updates per year, depending upon content, etc. The art for R(h)onda's update may almost be done - but the coding most likely hasn't even started, nor the posing, and we know nothing about the script. So maybe it's a 3 month update rather than a 6 month - but again, that's speculation and I am a firm believer in not raising false hopes. Those false hopes breed animosity that we see day in and day out in many game threads on here.

So end of last week on stream he was talking about how he gets a ton of messages asking about what the fuck is going on so he started toying with a "weekly" update on Patreon so he'd have something to point them at, the other day he said he settled on monthly because apparently taking an hour a week to write a post is to much of a waste of his time and he thinks it'd slow down development if he has to keep asking the team what they've done that week (His words not mine.). It's not like he's the lead dev who should know what his team's doing or that they have both daily morning meetings and a log for all the changes they make anything.

Earliest would be 30 April 2024
It's honestly a prime example of why management is a skill and why good managers are needed in any company. His general attitude of "I can't be bothered" is fine for a supermarket clerk but isn't any good when you're the lead. This attitude is causing 99% of the problems and complaints with the development but oh well.
