Taffy Tales, Four Elements Trainer.
And what genre? Renpy games genre? Because coders work in it. I would say that STS team make almost worst job comparable to games funded 1000$ per month.
I could also name games with more interesting story, games with saves games which don't brake in every update etc. But there is no point, everyone knows.
I mean adult Ren'py/Unity games.

I haven't played Four Elements Trainer since mid Book 2, so I don't know if things have changed, but the art back then was not near as complex/detailed as SS, nor was there as many art assets as SS.

How many Roxxy type updates you got. He is referring Diane update. Dont count the time you need to replay all basic shit.
Skipping through the stuff I had seen before using the Ctrl button, it still was over 90 minutes of game play with the 17.0 update.

As a defender, I can only speak for myself. But from my perspective, and this is also sort of a general sense I get from others, I think the central point that is overlooked here is that all of your points may well be true; but I just don't care. It's a porn game. I'm not going to invest any time or effort into giving a single hot shit about how the developer manages the project. He has no obligation, imo, to deliver anything. Patronage is voluntary, it's not Kickstarter where you're funding a specific target amount for a specific goal. It's a tip jar for what has been delivered to date, not a future-focused budget pool. Good for him that his tip jar is so honkin' big.
What still kills me is that people get so darned hyperbolic and strawman the positions on this because they're suffering from Blue Ball Syndrome.

I've said over and over that I've been a freelancer around this and I've been playing other games. But you'd think I kicked a baby because I'm not bitching about the release just like other people and pointing out how incredibly nonsensical the arguments have gotten by posting dank memes or trying to keep it light.

Yet we hear the Patreon argument, the amount he makes monthly, and everything under the sun because people like the content or whatever their individual reasons are.

Boggles my damned mind...

Has DC offered any further communication after he said it's coming out tonight?

Does anyone know what's actually going on?
He never said it was coming out tonight. He said they'd try to release it tonight. People automatically assume that means it's coming out though, and spread that false information.

Also everyone that is not a patreon should be prepared for the MEGA download to shit the bed once everyone tries to download at the same time :LOL: I remember it happening back in the day when the game wasn't even as half as popular as it is now. Just a warning to all those blueballed trolls, no need to spam this thread once the game comes out and you can't download it.

Listen your right but he could at least not say it at all if he is not sure and actually post a message saying he's not releasing today so he doesn't leave us hanging like imbeciles btw he did the same thing on stream yesterday so there is no defense.

Well, he's doomed anyway. In the past he always only said "soon" and people complained that he doesn't say anything. Now he says they are trying and others complain, because it's not specific enough.

I mean, I totally agree that he should have stayed with his "soon" (or refuse to answer at all) but in the end the number of complaints would likely be the same anyway. It's the same with the bug/issue tracker. Now that we've got it, people stopped complaining about the game being at 97%+ for weeks, instead they complain about the numbers in the tracker...

Yeah I totally understand what your saying but the false hopes were givin' from DC so like I said there is no defense the least you can do is post a message right?

Maybe he could compitently manage his heavily funded project and set deadlines that he meets like almost every single company that exists.
Yeah but at the same time I think that would be detrimental to his company if he has a deadline and doesn't fulfill it
