Hi !
I didn't play this game for years...

Question : what does "pre-tech" means ? Does that means it's pre-patched ?
Thanks in advance :)

"- Six new animations (two with two variants). "

They did this last time as well. It should say "Four new animations (and two old animations with new backgrounds)". There is nothing new about the Iwanka animations themselves, is there?

No, it means there is a Tech update coming, and these three updates are minor updates that came before (pre = before) the tech update to keep us warm...

Most of these comparisons are simply bad because they ignore the most decisive fact. The game is free and nobody ever has had to pay a cent to play it.

It's a huge difference if you pay for a service (be it eating out, having your car or flat fixed, etc.) or whether you get it done for free/get a free lunch.

If you are a paying customer who is promised a product or service, it's your right to get that (that the situation with most games, where devs actually sell their game or charge ridiculous sums for early access), but that's not the case for SS.

If you get something for free it's totally fine to be unhappy about it or to not take it, but anything beyond that is kinda questionable.
That point is simply bad. Plenty of these complains come from supporters or ex-supporters that have payed in the past. And getting it for free doesn't mean you don't get an opinion and the ability to call out milking where you see it. Trying to shut down such comments is kinda questionable. I don't have personal experience being duped by a pyramid scheme, but I'll still have some words about it despite not being one of their "customers" and buying their "Super Power Juice Mix" or whatever.

I haven't even checked on SS for about a year, haven't played the last few updates. But in the past didn't they add Roxxy's entire arc in 1 update? Eve's too? Seems like times have changed significantly. Even when I haven't checked myself, I'm always much more inclined to believe the people complaining, because the side defending is always so full of bs.

I'm one of those and so what? You pay what you think the game is currently worth to you and if you aren't happy anymore, you stop. That's how it's supposed to work. Just because I put in some money once doesn't mean that I have an acutal say now.

So you are writing a lot of stuff without really knowing what's going on. Great.
These character updates like Roxxy's and Eve's are supposed to be back for Ronda, Annie and Judith. Right now they are reworking the technical backbone of the game and because that's talking longer than expected, they release these small "scene only updates" in between. Not that I actually like what's happening, but it's really not what you are suggesting.

Edit: words

Oh so now even paying customers have to stay silent. Just silently stop supporting. This is what's called "moving the goalpost." I'm sorry that you have such an aversion to voiced opinions, perhaps you should avoid forums?

None of what I've said is specific to this game or this update cycle. Nice try at dismissal but, just no. There could be zero milking happening, that would be great. I don't know with 100% certainty and neither does anybody else. Often it's obvious but this game seems to be skirting the line if anything. But like I said, I'm less inclined to believe the side that's spewing utter dog shit (like the stuff I'm replying to) Just don't be intellectually dishonest and/or mentally deficient. If you're right, you shouldn't need to.

I'm saying from the beginning that the game is free and that nobody is a paying customer for the game. You may get some side tokens, but the game is the same and free for everybody. Is that so hard to understand?
And yes, you have fewer rights and reasons to complain about something you get for free than for something you've actually paid money for bought.

For anything else. You are obviously just here to discuss stuff you even admit you don't know anything about. So please don't expect me to take you serious. Sadly it's probably just normal today that "believing something" is enough to feel that one is right.

It's rare to see people with sense in these forums. I will say tho, just let the entitled peeps say what they want. People have the right to have their opinions, even if they're spoiled about it.

You just seem like a guy that just accepts everything without thinking of the alternatives
Nah i'm the former chat mod of DC that got really tired of banning ppl from chat for asking the same questions for years or complaining about the same stuff over and over again without adding anything fruitful to the conversation aside from "Me horny me want stuff faster and not pay a penny to you for it" and quit after i explained many times that the only alternative is to get a publisher funding this project and a staff of 30 or more ppl working on the game.

Everyone is fast on complaining but when you ask for alternatives they all get very quiet fast. Either you get many small updates and ppl complain that there is nothing to do after each update. Or you get big updates and many complain about that the updates take to long.

Yet when u ask them on how to get faster and bigger updates they all point towards the money which starts a discussion about taxes and other financial stuff in which they always lose every argument as they have no clue what they are even talking about and always assume that the 50 to 70k a month always end up in DC's pocket without any deductions or salary for staff. Those are the ppl that think if you make a million bucks you keep a million bucks and the tax office only sends you flowers and a "Congratulations" card. Absolutely ridiculous.

TLDR The presented alternatives over the years have been so ridiculous that taking them serious have gone from "Wait you for real?" to the realm of "Fantasy and other daydreaming"

Overhauling an entire codebase is no small feat. Personally, I'm just happy to see more Odette.

Oh so now paying customers DO get to complain again. Unlike what you said in your last post. Keep changing it to whatever suits you at the time. My points stand on their own and I haven't accused SS of anything, perhaps your reading comprehension needs work.

Let's see if you can spot the difference between 2 approaches.

"I believe the dev is doing good work, delivering solid updates, working full time, nothing shady going on, elaborate if you want, insert timeline, update size, general coding knowledge, etc etc"
versus
"Stop crying, go make your own game reeee, insert irrelevant thing, illogical point, baseless insult, another irrelevant thing, donations of less than 3$ per month lmao wut"

If you people didn't always have to resort to the latter, maybe you'd be taken more seriously. Contradicting yourself doesn't help either so you should work on that.
