Oh yeah I forgot about the stats and grinding, makes more sense now
To be fair, that problem will be gone after 0.18.0. Now that Somrak will have his own questline and won't be connected to Jenny anymore, it looks like we may get a new cheat mode which includes full stats. So the initial grind is basically gone, unless you want to replay without any cheats.

I had the same thought but after many hours of fapping sessions and meditation i realized it’s not gonna be today... but I’m gonna add it to my wishlist tho that the update comes today
they are fixing bugs seemingly every minute. 30 more to go looks like.

Not true. Erik's code still needs to be refactored for save compat to be a thing

Hm? I wasn't talking about savegames but about the fact that you actually had to regrind stats once you started again. Now you'll just be able to raise your stats to max (without breaking Jenny's content) and won't have to care about grinding, which was indeed a small issue.

Alright settle down, I'm sorry. I misread your post

That has been the case for more than a year now? They release it on their own servers for patreons and others have to wait until all the free hosters like mega, etc. are ready.
Since when in the history of ever has "early release access" meant a few hours? Patrons, if not all, at least the highest tier ones, should've been able to play this update a long time ago.

i hope it to brother... but coding and writing is also left, and the more bugs they fix more are coming...
i don't get it, how can the writing not be at 100% already? i expect the coding to go to 100% with the bugs/issues bar, they are probably related or something.

They fix 1 bug... add 20 more in the progress bar... I'm not in any way a coding expert, but it's a fucking visual novel... how complex can the fucking code be? They're just milking patreons at this point. Dragging this damn update so he can get this month's money because he knows he'll lose patrons after this update is released.
Yes... becuase looking at his history of patrons coming and going, it's been steadily increasing. Totally losing patrons. The release has no bearing on being a patron. Seeing as it's 100% free to play, how does one holding their patronage til May 1, in any way, affect their ability to get the game.

Well, that's not the case with SS. The game is and has always been free and everybody will get it on the same day.

The last writing task is sadly <censored> so we don't know what it is. It may just as well be proofreading or something that's related to the release.

1. Hiring manager doesn't make sense in such a project. There is a good joke about project managers. They are people who think that 9 women will give birth in one month. As a freelancer I would not hire a person who only tells me what to do and set unrealistic deadlines - this I could do by myself.

Another thing is about those "realistic dates". 2 weeks ago, after a week stuck at 97%, DC posted "almost finished" and that we wait for last 2 animations. At that point, bug testing should start. I can't imagine that now, after 2 weeks, we have 200 bugs with those 2 animations that were finally delivered. That is, in fact, bad project management.

0.17 was released 6 months ago - If this update doesn't end up having lots of content then I see no point in further supporting it.
Project managers are people who make you work and by your message I don't think you like that as a freelancer. I work with freelancers daily and most of them aren't even competent. Wonder why...probably attitude.

Can't even recall how many times I had to correct something that freelancers botched. A daily occurence and disease.

Since the tracker's total percent doesn't account for the bugs, I'm wondering if maybe the last few tasks might actually be done, but they're leaving them unchecked to avoid saying the game is 100% complete when there are actually a whole pile of bugs to fix. That was always a big problem in the past, before they had bugs on the tracker in the first place. Lot of confused people wondering about the holdup.

Obviously I can't prove if that's the case, but if it is, I don't think it's working all that well. A frozen 98% is barely different than a frozen 100%.
