The key word here is "donation". Donations to DC and SS are not "investments".How the fuck is this update not out? In no world is this sort of work product acceptable with the cash they are pulling in monthly. IMO, this is one of the biggest scams on patreon at this point. If the update doesn’t have a sizable amount of content (it likely won’t)…
I get that. I really do. It’s just a dick move to the people who have donated in the past (I did several years ago).The key word here is "donation". Donations to DC and SS are not "investments".
Investments have legal obligations and deadlines. Whoever is receiving investment but not delivering can find themselves sued or behind bars - donations on the other hand have no such thing. Donations are essentially free money that you give someone and expect nothing valuable in return (like a charity).
Which is why even though this project has gathered 2,000,000$+ DC has 0 obligation to spend it on game development besides the Patreon goals he set up.
He can go buy expensive cars with it if he would like to and there ain't a single thing we can do about it besides tell the patrons to not donate to a millionaire that they've formed a parasocial relationship with - good luck with that.
Yes, by sheer dollars this game has technically 5-8x the budget of games like shovel knight, hollow knight...etc and is approaching the budget of AA games like Hellblade but that's not how donations work.
So no it's not a scam. The devil's in the details.
No but when all these people who just kept *donating* like scamcitizen game, figure out all the stuff you said. They are going to be angry and are going to feel like the got scammed, but it is just being suckered. -_- Same thing on Fen with Trials in Tainted space & COC2 ( coc2 was built on the nostalgia of Community COC1 mod) COC2 doesn't even have corruption path and it has CORRUPTION in its name (reallystupid). He got all that money, gave one of the projects over to another, I remember him making 800k+ a year when he first started out, and content just dropped. about 60% of developers will start off good, work a lot, give good content, but once that money starts rolling in. BOOOMMMMMMM You can just go ahead and strike that game off the list. Creators like them hurt community more, cause they make people less likely to donate, which can harm or end starting games that really need donations.The key word here is "donation".

What dick move ? You give $ to tell DC you like the game and to keep making it. Whatever happens after that doesn't concern you anymoreI get that. I really do. It’s just a dick move to the people who have donated in the past (I did several years ago).
And as far as work product, it’s just absurd it could take this long.

Look over the walkthrough in the wiki to see if you missed something:guys what can i do, my mai nstory dont move and i cant open tonnys pizza, its just - a wait afew days
Well, in fact, as it turned out, I'm already using your mod...If you're sure you followed the Walkthrough and also meanwhile tried to proceed other stories, but still cannot proceed, you may want to give my mod a try. It has a feature to repair broken saves.

I don’t believe in unique bugs, so here’s the problem: math book - I have it in my inventory and also in Dexter’s locker, and dialogue occurs that everything is fine when I try to remove it from there, but it remains in his locker, and librarian still doesn't want to accept the one I have in inventory. Since everything here in game is connected and tied, there is no further progress in many ways. Has anyone encountered such a bug?
I'm playing from zero, but with activated cheats (and, as I remember, uncompressed version), I haven't noticed any other problems yet.
ps. I apologize in advance if though this has already been here somewhere

I guess some Tasks are bigger then other, but come one this sound like 3 Months work for 1 Guy, not 1,5 Years. HIRE MORE PPL, you lost already nearly 10k Patreons in 2022. Do something or it will go downhill really fast.
Making sense is now an option. And game is dead, lolBest

My thought is , can we just let the games that are dead rest! Like Summertimesaga!
And focus on other games that are doing well. Like; Nothing is forever, Race of live, Friends in need, Killer project, The bite- Revenant, Life in santa, The way loves goes? Words of Wonder...
Have a good evening
that are dead rest?
What version are you playing ? On what OS ? Do you use mods ? Did you save in the only 2 places you should have since before 2018 ?I keep getting an error code when I try to enter a door in the church, to advance the Helen line
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
While running game code:
ScriptError: could not find label 'confessional_right_rump'.
Any suggestions?
Sounds like the Mayor is absent from church. That said - are you running any mods? If so, turn them off/remove them and see if you still get the error.I keep getting an error code when I try to enter a door in the church, to advance the Helen line

Judging by the filepath he posted, it seems more like the game is missing something when he goes into the cubicle to talk to the nun/prank the non-existant priest. Not really the mayor missingSounds like the Mayor is absent from church. That said - are you running any mods? If so, turn them off/remove them and see if you still get the error.
If you are running the basic version that you can download from the OP here:
View attachment 2331094
or that you can download directly from the developer for free there:You must be registered to see the links
Perhaps you just had a bad unzip and need to download/unzip again.
