Roxxy ain't got one.

Dewitt ain't got one. She be twerkin' it though...

I don't know about Diane since I didn't play her update

The only one I can say is IN the game is probably Lilly, or the owner of the sex shop and that's possibly me mixing her stuff with a BJ.

No oil wrestling and no paizuri...

Goddamn shame...

I don't really understand why it should be bad if some people leave? DC obviously doesn't want to change the way he works and for that the estimated funding was set to around ~25k to 30k at best. Right now the whole thing is certainly overperforming financially (which is nice for DC and in my opinion actually not undeserved) but that doesn't mean it always will.

At some point, we'll reach a level where the content released and the money he makes fit again and it's fine. That said, I'm fairly certain that people would still complain just as much, no matter wether he makes 25k or 50k.
I will say that I'm actually curious how many hours he actually works a day on the art. He stated that an old goal was for full time work on the project. Full time in the U.S. is 40 hour weeks and depending on how good your sick/vacation time is, you're stuck working through being sick.

I do hope he actually hires another coder too since that was one of the goals that people reached (Panda isn't there anymore, so it's Dogeek soloing the coding).

I've no issue with him making the $50k, so long as he's actually doing what he promised with his Patreon goals (which admittedly has been questionable).

Hey guys,

I just discovered the daisy storyline, the thing is, I already completed the meth dealing part of roxxy's quest, so clyde isn't there anymore to give me the part of the statue.
Did I lock myself out definitely on the dasiy part or is there another way of having the status ?
TIA

I don't care at all for the 50 K$, if he got it, then he got it : if people wanna paid 1$ or 10$ and there's 30k of people who wanna participate, then what can you all said ... It's their choice !

Personally, I'm more affected to see that Diane update is almost finished ... This is so short o_O

imagine 50.000$ for a game.... There are even harder games with dev's who are taking 2/3/4/5 thousands per month and still working faster with updates... no respect from DarkCookie.
- dont blame me please.

And there are also games barely muddling along or that have been outright abandoned. DC is one of the few game makers doing all his own art. Most other games use pre-rendered and copied 3D models for their games. That or they commission artwork from multiple people, leaving the game to have very little visual cohesion.

Who cares what the man makes? If he's making 50k a month and he splits that amongst five or six people, that number suddenly drops for him alone. Regardless, more money does not mean faster updates. That's not how it works. He's getting more money than most other game makers because he's making something different than most people in his line of work and the masses love it for that.

There's a small number of reasons most of the Adult Interactive Fiction titles are so obscure, sitting in an alpha stage, abandoned or getting low quality updates pushed out quickly.

Re-used/Stock 3D renders

Creator getting bored

Same cliche story (admittedly, there's not much you can do if you're wanting to make a story with incest but still)

Oversaturation of said incest content. Currently wating for beastiality, loli/shota or some other "taboo" subject to become the next "in" thing to make a game about. Creators need to make what they love not what they think everyone else wants. It was nice to see some chubby-centric games appear last year, for example, despite a lot of people here shitting on it, rather than ignoring it.

Poor grammar and/or translations (Shitty grammar is an immediate no go for me and many others when it comes playing an AIF title, regardless of how good the art looks)

He comes back after some time pretending to be someone else iirc. DCs discord usually has pinned WTs and searching in his help channel usually yields 3-5 guys who already got a good answer.

Nah, it'll come out in May so he can get all of the end of the month Patreon renewals. Everyone who said they were going to stop supporting him after this update kind of fucked themselves I think. lol

Though, I highly doubt many people are going to go through with it. And the influx of new patrons after the update releases will far outweigh the loss. I'm sure he's not stupid, he probably knows that.

Edit: As of right now, there's 2 "todo" tasks left, 1 writing and 1 code. But, obviously from experience, that pretty much means fuck all. I don't know if he wants to fix every bug before release or what. And if he decides that he might as well put in the .5 update shit it may be even longer.
Simbro provided the last playable update 15 months ago, no word from them for over 8 months now, and they still make 1,700 bucks each month on patreon, for absolutely -- and I mean absolutely! -- nothing...

He will come back eventually.

Be warned that there is a bug with that statue. Do not look at it in your backpack or all further saves will be broken. Or install my mod, which fixes that bug.

Like folks here dont want anyone to be angry but come on. 6 months to re-establishing a single character.
Roxxy update was brilliant and it didnt take as long, like as far as I rmember 4 months. This one though. Lets hope its not as dogshit as the last one and if it is well people are gonna leave which will be good since it will make DC to actually update his dated development method.

Diane did get one and it's pretty good, but I was mostly talking about how you were saying there isn't going to be one in an update that hasn't been released.

The only thing that will make any difference on the update schedule will be a large loss of patreon support. That's it. Even if DC isn't specifically dragging things out to get more money, and I'm not going to make any kind of judgment if he is because I 100% guarantee that every single person whining about it in this thread would do the same damn thing if they were in his shoes, he's not going to change how he works simply because people are upset about it. I do my job a particular way and I'm not going to change it because other people think I should do it a particular way. If you're a patreon and you're upset, then pull your support. If you're not then I'm not saying don't be annoyed by it, but you should remember that it's just porn and how much DC is making off of it has no affect on you and you shouldn't be getting into a huff about it. Life is either too short or too long to get hung up on things, depending on your perspective.
