DC could have learned to code himself the past few years in-between his drawing and waiting on his coders to complete his updates for him. It's by no means easy to learn how to code, but you can make a lot of strides over years of study and practice. He just has no drive besides drawing, and the money's too good to motivate him to learn how to code if people continue to pay him for nothing but the occasional drawing stream and wallpapers.

I don't know what it is that keeps me coming back to this thread (amusement maybe? the drama?)
Scientists of the 17th century would have been stunned to discover that the solution to creating a perpetual motion machine was to promise horny nerds porn then just not deliver. :LOL:
Imagine a world where Summertime Saga not only completes the tech update, but actually manages to have a satisfying conclusion.
It would be interesting to see whether the post-tech-update plot will still continue to use played out Trump vs. Hillary jokes that were already boring when the game was first announced.
I honestly doubt the update will come out this year. The art and writing tasks aren't even finished yet, you still have one third of the posing and coding tasks unfinished and the whole bug testing/fixing will take at least a couple of months.
At this rate I think we'll see The Winds of Winter before STS Tech Update. (I do not believe we will ever see The Winds of Winter.)

DC had both the time and the cash to literally go to college and get a comp sci degree, then finish STS with time to spare AND have a nice legit normie day job waiting for him if drawing smut ever dries up. I have to conclude he has gambling debt or a drug habit or some such. Maybe the mafia subplot in the game is autobiographical?

I'm here just waiting in excitement to see Count Morado cope, seethe, and mald when he sees the abandoned tag in April.
Very doubtful as he's the one that first pointed out the April deadline. Even corrected a few posts that thought the abandoned tag came into effect after the first year passed.

I don't know what it is that keeps me coming back to this thread (amusement maybe? the drama?)

either way, at this point I'm honestly curious as to why DC hasn't hired more people to work on the code (the biggest issue from what I can see), and at least try to get this tech update over and done with, as from what I've seen, DC is making art for future updates, which is pushing the coding even further behind.

and yes, I am aware that different coders = different styles/way of doing things, which can impact performance, but frankly, if this keeps up, DC may as well declare the game "as done as it gets" and start working on Wintertime Saga with new staff...
Wait Wintertime Saga? Is that real or is it a joke?

Dc could have hired someone to help with the coding (its still not late to do so), cause there is always someone that can do same type of coding has current coder, he state that its not needed cause things are going well and good speed and we seeing it other way, i mean tech update its far from being done, what im more curious is what makes people pay every month to get nothing back.

And what I'm curious is what DC pays his coder. He's either a lazy one, or paid s*it and that's why he puts little or no effort on it, or the so-called tech-update won't happen in years because the previous coding can't be fixed at the actual state. What's clear it's that DC is investing no patreon resources in his own game and people should have already realized it long time ago. After all these years the game should have got at least some voice acting.

Ask Kuma Studio how good an idea voice acting was.

You guys know he's checking this daily back and forth with everyone to see there is still enough interest to keep milking it. Fucking hell, some of you guys treat this thread like a high school kid that just found out about social media. Here every day bitching or defending. REALLY?! Do you really have nothing else going on? People stop hanging out here, biting their nails waiting, for someone to "comment on their comment". Maybe lack of interest...and dwindling "donations" would light a fire under his ass. Or maybe not.. Some people just suck at being good people even though they make a DECENT(lets get real people) game.

Even If he is working on the update let's hope that he is not using AI.
Ai totally ruined "taffy tales"
Let's hope this one dosent face the same fate.
Or worse abundant
