wow so they completed 81 tasks in a 5 month period. so about a task every 2 days. do people consider this a reasonable amount of work, even for part time work?
I'm curious as to what your understanding of a "task" is.
I get the impression that some people assume that a task is something akin to taking a book from one table and placing it on another and voila, task complete.
This isn't an attack on you in or anyone else in any way, but I genuinely think that a lot of people on these forums just want the game done without understanding why it's taking so long. Could it be done faster? Probably, but a single task could be repositioning a character within the new wider backgrounds. The character Jenny if I'm remembering correctly, has over a thousand images and I'm betting that the number is steadily increasing as they work to improve the game. That's
one character and can be considered a single task. That's placing the body, the faces and the arms all over again.
It should also be noted that the art isn't the issue here, and the bottleneck is the posing and code.
It's also the reason why DC is improving other areas because he has the time to do so. His expertise is the art, not the code and the posing. He's already mentioned that people jump on to do the posing but some end up leaving because of the monotonous drudgery of it.
"the guy just needs to finish at this point. put the project down and start a new one."
This person wants the game done, but wants him to stop and start a new game. This is the kind of thing people sigh over.
Again not an attack, but the frustration over people making complaint posts without actually giving anything worth of substance. If he abandoned the game, he'd be doing exactly what everyone
doesn't want, hence the endless posts about the game not being done. If he started a new game, who'd want to buy into it when he's now known for abandoning the games he creates?
