Odd given the recode is entering release testing as of April 30th on their Patreon...it's been 2 years since the last update, ergo abandoned tag

We will all believe it when we see it.Odd given the recode is entering release testing as of April 30th on their Patreon...
I have no memory of them for the life of me. But what we're really talking about here is just compelling writing, which an interconnected design would be a function of, and I don't think that needs to be explicitly promised from the start. If it hasn't happened so far, that just means it's still an unexplored avenue for them to tap into.Abby is the incredibly forgettable fitness chick, and Jane is the librarian.
I think there's multiple reasons. But mainly that DC's mentality has always been that he wants to work on the game full time but not increase the scope of operation just because people throw copious amounts of money at him.
I agree, the "main" characters are a lot more interesting to me than the side characters, and I'd love for the quests to be more interconnected (and have generally more content but that's another discussion). But they've never promised or aimed for interconnected design, I'm not keeping them on the hook for a design choice that's been that way from the start. I'd rather have it differently but they go with isolated quests, which is fine.
It is a pretty good game, especially when it comes to the actual shitposting. Not to mention, it isn't only finished, but it was done by a single person and even before STS was a thing.I mean, there's still a difference between that and Unteralterbach. Anybody who puts that game on a top 10 list has to be shitposting - at least one would hope so...
A small footnote tho: Just because F95 says it's abandoned, doesn't mean it actually isRIP. One of the first western games I followed, what a ride.
Sure but it's a distinction without practical difference to the actual players. Even giving benefit of the doubt that the gears are still turning behind the scenes, at the pace it's going it's over. F95 is if anything late at calling time of death on this project.A small footnote tho: Just because F95 says it's abandoned, doesn't mean it actually is
Maybe not really abandoned but still a scam, sure he is working on it but i would say with 5% of the speed he did at the beginning, 3 years without real content, waiting on a tech update nobody asked for (and stop saying patrons voting for it, that's bullshit), re-releasing the same content after 3 years, you really can't see here any true work on the project.A small footnote tho: Just because F95 says it's abandoned, doesn't mean it actually is
That the guy never thought of selling the wool in that movie really showed he didn't know what he was doing.
They will probably complain that the update is just 20% of the previous content and that they waited 2 years for it?I'm looking forward for the next arc of this thread.
Wonder what/if people will complain about when the first part of the update releases.
Yup, it's gonna be years of rereleasing the game piece by piece all over. You thought the grift was finally over? Oh boy.They will probably complain that the update is just 20% of the previous content and that they waited 2 years for it?
That's not how any of this works...This game absolutely blows me away. The amount of content and obvious love poured into it is staggering. But finding out it's been abandoned is a crushing disappointment. Especially since the past few years have seen mostly bug fixes, not new additions.
It deserves so much more! I truly hope another studio picks up the torch and breathes new life into it. Maybe even Nutaku could be convinced to take the reins – I'm reaching out to them in hopes they see the potential.
Oh it’s going to be somewhat entertaining. The shitposting potential is off the charts, because as far as i understand it it’s going to be released piecemeal, and since it’s mainly reworked old stuff. So you’re going to watch starved animals chewing on the bones of their previous meals, desperately trying to find the tiniest piece of marrow to sustain them .I'm looking forward for the next arc of this thread.
