Thanks to those that responded, it's appreciated.

I'm not overly concerned when the game is done, thb, I'm just curious as to how they're picking and choosing what to work on and why. I personally don't see the harm in peeking behind the curtain to see exactly what's going on, but I'm also not going to pretend that I understand the specific process they're going through.

If you want a peek behind the curtain, there ya go, just like MurkyTurtle said.

to be fair morado already gave the rule book of what is allowed in the chat, on top of that: another one even explained why they get deleted so often.
lastly: how do you know for the parts you weren't there for? what if most people defending it don't even got the game download or are patrons themselves?

To my hated non-president:
1. I have already read and re-read the forum rules (the aforementioned book) in detail, to understand where my comment and all the comments I have seen here... violate the rules.
2. These comments do not contradict the rules and are nothing less than the truth. And apparently, telling the truth has become a crime, even on a porn game forum...
3. And, as is usual, many comments made about it are deleted for no apparent reason. And the previous one, like this one too, will be deleted. As the saying goes: for a good connoisseur, half a word is enough. Clarifying, the rest doesn't need to be explained, you can see for yourself.

Username7 is our man on the inside for tracker updates, maybe he'll kick us a new image or two. Our understanding is that the opposite is actually true: they got done a lot of smaller characters first and saved the big ones for last. Jenny in particular has been a major roadblock for progress.

We'll know more in a few days with the monthly update. I think if they're actually making serious progress then the report will be heavier on real accomplishments than random bugfixes.

Ask and thou shall receive. So back in September Toxic mentioned that a lot of things are sitting at 90%, I'll add the screenshot alongside others. The large characters/storylines in terms of reposing are most likely what Toxic was talking about when it came to being stuck at 90% because over the last two months they've moved on to the teachers and other odds & ends. Now they don't move task to completed until it's done done so I assume that also means not just the coding but the mini games as well which means Stray is now the bottleneck. In terms of what's done I've updated my older screenshot of posing task to include what's been mentioned in the monthly updates, again they only get a check if I've seen or heard something on Discord or Stream, green done or close to it, blue it's at least been worked on. I changed Ms. Bissette to a light green because a lot of the work this month has been her so unconfirmed but strong evidence that she's reposed. Last months update mentioned Clyde, Crystal and Ms. Ross as still being reposed so I have them in blue as well as the library because its been in the change logs due to Bissette being worked on. Now what's been pushing that percentage needle up it's coding task last week was some mini games and this week it's rewiring Bissette and Judith.

Wow that was really fast. Thank you!

So, this is what I had assumed was going on. With so many images needing reposing and relabeling, that even though they're near completion, the tracker wasn't moving forward because of odds and ends for each task.

I think information like this would genuinely help a lot of people understand just why the task bar wasn't moving as fast as they hoped it would.

Only 10 days between 83% and 84%? I may start getting my hopium reserves ready.

Updated pace puts release:
Wednesday, April 3, 2024

Nah, best case scenario, it gets released next summer.

 

[fapmeister]

My man you have DT as a pfp, poggers as a name, and unironically write kekw. Go eat crayons.

Finally a good post in this thread.

you have a typo there, it's going to be 2124 =), but in the meantime a couple drawings a month sure justified the amount of money received, absolutely, no doubt! XD

What even is this response? You have nothing to back up your claim that fans "forced" CDPR to release the game prematurely, all you're doing is engaging in unhinged mental gymnastics to shift blame from the developers to the consumers. The delusion people went, and still go through to defend or downplay CDPR's actions is genuinely something psychologists can have a field day with. Holy fuck.

My man you have DT as a pfp, poggers as a name, and unironically write kekw. Go eat crayons.

Well, Pardon me Mr. PhD in Psychology, but i said what i said when CDPR stated that the "Game wasn't Ready to be Released" and The "Fans" are starting to get Anxious and Impatient to Play the Game. There was Covid back when it happens and People have Less Entertainment in their life. CDPR and Most Companies have to Lay Off some of the Employees and also there's Work From Home type of Situation going on so the game got Delayed AGAIN(Yes, the got Delayed before too). Even Bethesdha's Starfield got Delayed too at the time. When People get impatient or even Anxious they tend to do the Extreme and so There's the Death Threat Letter and it reached to the Developer's Hands.

[imperfectica]

At this point Star Citizen will get released before an update to this shit.

Now that you mention the teachers, if they're smart they'd take the chance to tweak Miss Dewitt's story to take the changes in Eve's story into consideration. Namely her not being friends with the rappers anymore.

That's a Good Point.

Yeah those are ones that based off what's been said are still being worked on and need to be finished being reposed before Stray can get a crack at them for coding. Also I should caution that the checks are just my best guess based on stuff I've seen/heard for instance if one dev was working on a route and then said a few months later that they were now working on a different one, I assume the first route is either done or close enough that the dev was given something else to work on. The assumption is based on the fact other devs have only moved on to new routes after finishing the previous one they were assigned.

 

[Poggersq]

And how does some people being anxious to play the game after multiple delays, and a minority of weirdos sending death threats/demanding a release have any impact on when a public multimillion dollar company releases their project with a budget of $315 million?

Fans don't have that power whatsoever and even if that would be the reason CDPR released their game prematurely (which it 100% isn't), it would still be their own fault for listening to a select group of fans, when there were plenty of people who didn't say anything or even said they should take their time.

wthdym? fans DO have power: in sonic games fans demand change all the time. what are you smokin bro

no, these are oranges and oranges, the SCOPE of a company doesn't matter under the guise of money.
