Kind of crazy that after 2 years neither the art or the writing tasks are finished yet.

I seem to recall the art was done a long time ago but then at some point the bar went back down? I think somebody said it was because as they were doing some of the rigging they realized stuff was not at the level where it needed to be and so they had to redo stuff?

I need to know why are they taking so long with this update

Pretty close. They realized that a large part of the art was borked/missing/poorly tagged due to DC being shit at organization, so they had to spend an ungodly amount of time re-exporting and fixing it. I believe the current remaining art tasks are slightly more mundane, like missing shadows and other tiny errors, and they keep finding new ones as the posing crew works through the backlog.
God only knows why it should take this long, though. We had this information months ago, and there's only so many art assets in the game. At some point one has to wonder why DC is jerking around with wallpapers and new location backgrounds that we won't see for years when there's remaining art tasks on the docket.

Your question is vague, however:
No. It's a tech update, not a content update.
If you mean something else, please ask again.
No they are only stalling time, this must be one of the biggest milking projects of Patreon.
Really unbelievable that so many people still pay for this crap.

Yeah, cuz that has worked... never. Magically, people keep bringing this up as a good idea in various game threads - but can't show a single believable instance where this has actually worked.
any ETA on when we can get the stepmom pregnant? we can already have sex with her for some time now, and considering that the problem with the russians that were harrassing her and the MC has been dealt with, why not let us put a bun in her oven? unless DarkCookie has something else in store to justify the reason as to why she can't get preggers, it is high time we can do that

Has it ever happened? I genuinely don't know.
If you don't know of any example, I don't know why you're so feisty. It's an idea, one of which seems a bit far fetched to achieve I'll give you that much, but since people are 'lil piggies without any galls to do anything this idea is just that, an idea.

It's not that I'm feisty. And you're the one who brought up the idea - so you should be the one bringing an example to the table to show of its feasibility. Also, it's been brought up hundreds of times in as many game threads on here, including this one. Never once has a successful story come from it.
Thinking through it logically, it also makes no sense - If someone can't pay the bills doing something, they aren't going to continue doing that thing - or if they are, it will be with much less effort and time involved because they'll need a different job to pay the bills. Leeching rarely (if ever) worked in medicine and it doesn't work in economics or the labor market. Do employees work better on less pay? Nope. Do kids get better education when school funding is pulled? Nope. Do construction projects get done quicker when contracts are cut? Nope.
No timeline. Eventually. Could (most likely will be) be years. You can find a mod in OP which will do it for you in the mean time.
Simbrodev and breeding season both kind of allowed themselves to milk on the way out - the income started a steep decline and they just kind of let it trickle out without contributing. I think the later kind of ponied up and closed it when they realized they couldn't go forward anymore (drama/long story).
I honestly don't know what system could work in this scenario - I want to reward indie artists, but I also want to keep them producing. Personally I think a better way to handle this type of thing would to not allow reoccurring donations, forcing people to keep intentionally donating (I know this is very impractical). I also know that it would impact Patreon/etc's money flow so that's never going to happen. On the other hands the kickstarter model hasn't proven any more effective (22cans/Godus comes to mind).
As the codebase expands, updating it gets more tedious - and after a while enthusiasm wanes. I doubt Dark cookie is out there twirling his mustach, laughing at the patriouns without returning any code - but he has had kids, the code is getting bigger, and I am sure his motiviation to timely deliver new code has waned sigificantly. TBH if I were him, and had read 1/10th of the comments on this thread whining about it, I would feel unappreciated, and my motivation would stink too - regardless of the income.
