Meanwhile, the Eternum thread is borderline draconic in modding, where posts get deleted for being off topic and pretty much anything that isn't about the game's contents gets deleted.
Kind of wild, I just looked it up, Dark Cookie is the 13th highest patreon account by total members.
Unless you were one of the people that thought the abandoned tag would actually change anything, that is not really surprising. He has been gaining subs since april of last year even though he hasn't release any updates.
in the recent times its been getting faster i believe, i might be wrong, im now in college the tech update was on wait since i was a senior in hs, crazy shit
It's only reasonable if you refuse to accept the reality. Even back then it was obvious that DC doesn't want to work that way (again) and calling him out on that is just so futile. But sure, people will continue and another 5 years down the line the same discussion is going to happen again. If people want to waste their time (as we all do) they should at least waste it on games they actually like...
Yes, and I'm saying a project as DC wants to run it (and does run it) doesn't really benefit from scrum. The worlflow simply isn't the main issue you think it is.
Scrum for example wouldn't have prevented that, at all. If the whole team agrees on the outset, that it'll take a few months, but then figures down the line it's going to 10 times that, it's a lack of hard expertise and not a lack of management.
At least now you are saying what it's really about for you. It's certainly more honest than this talk about management.
I'd never buy a Tesla in general.
DC has explained a few times how project management was his least favourite part of his old job (supervisor for animation teams in video game studios iirc) and why he refused to "micromanage" -- or simply proactively manage -- the SS team, even before the tech update shambles began. It's a flaw he's never shied away from, or had to be cajoled into admitting
You are correct. I point to the 2017 LewdGamer every once in a while about what DC shared is his viewpoint on the game and progress, completion. He's very direct about his view about project management:
Believe it or not, he quit! Something about his side hobby making a load of money, as I recall. Some sort of cartoon sex game?
There's not been any new content since October 2022 and there isn't planned any in the near future.
"Wait, the tech update has REMOVED content???" nonstop for months. Can't wait
I am still curious if F95 staff will put the update in this thread or keep this thread flagged as abandoned and start a new thread. It all depends upon how they interpret their own rules. I could see arguments for the fourth bullet in 6.1 and the last bullet in 6.2 for either decision:
