Are there NTR in game scenes? I'm here because of them

 

[Count Morado]

Batia -

No, there is no NTR (netorare) in the game. Also, you need to comment in English on this site, unless you are in a thread that specifically allows Russian.

Нет, в игре нет НТР (нетораре). Кроме того, на этом сайте вы должны комментировать на английском языке, если только вы не находитесь в теме, которая специально разрешает русский язык.

. If you want to hear it for yourself - go there. I had the 8.5 minutes transcribed by an AI for those who would prefer to pick it apart word by word (also, before you pick it apart - again, remember, since it was AI transcribed, some may not be exactly correct and you should go listen to be sure).

There you go.

I don't how I feel about that. But it's probably not worse than not releasing anything for over a year.

It is honestly a better release model, since we already know it would've took the update a year or more to be finished either way. There would be at least something to show for it, even if people are gonna complain about it, it's actually nice to see the content again rather than just progress reports be it polished or otherwise.

I'm more interested in the "new things" part of it though, did he just mean the already promised stuff or is it actual new scenes/additions depending on the chunk of the update he's releasing? Idk

Edit: P.S thanks for the transcription.

 

[josh963]

So... still with no possible release date for a new update?!!

 

[GregGregovsky]

Seems pretty sus to me. If they are gonna release the game in chunks over the next few years, they they probably should be able to release part of it already? But the game has been at 82% forever. I thought the new progress bar was supposed to really reflect what was going on unlike the old one. If this is the case, 0 progress has been made in months. We're gonna get the same content with some tweaks and have to probably wait 2-3 years for new content. What is the point? I feel for the people who defend this scam. I hope you don't get scammed in real life too often!

probably 2 years more for the first part with probably 5 mins of content

Ah yes, release the tech update in parts now, so take everything you've already spent 3 years on, segment all of what's already finished out so you can now drip feed what was supposed to be out years ago (say do one chunk every year?), and keep the gravy train going for another decade at least.

It actually doesn't bother me at all, only thing that does is that there are devs who bust their asses every day to make sure they put out decent updates every few months who don't have a tenth of DPC's revenue and are far more deserving.

 

[Microtom]

They want to release a partial tech update because they know they are very far away from finishing. My suspicion is that the final release will be around the end of the year.

 

[Ivyren]

So this game is closing on on 8 years of dev time with no end in sight. The last update was over a year ago. WTF is going on with this Dev/Devs. Starting to look a lot like one of those Devs that want to keep the cash on patreon or other sites going for as long as they can.

 

[gunderson]

I don't understand the anxiety surrounding the 'abandoned' tag by DC's apologists: specifically, there's no downside to the game getting the abandoned tag as far as the player-base is concerned. There are basically three possible responses that DC can make to the threat of his game being labeled abandoned, and they're all fine.

Option 1: DC ignores it and keeps jacking off all day every day while collecting a huge paycheck from mor---sorry, I mean, he keeps diligently developing the best update that could possibly exist with super duper exciting characters to be released at some point before or during the heat death of the universe. I.e., no difference.

Option 2: DC updates the fucking game, finally, after a Goddamned year and a half. Maybe it's just one of those incremental 2-month updates he threatened that, like, redoes the intro or something (seriously, what even WAS the plan for the tech update? Was there a timeline for the next update at all? Or was it just 'jack off in Aruba forever, buy a bunch of stonks, and hope I end up rich enough that I never have to do actual game development again'?), but at least there's something.

Option 3: DC throws in the towel, officially labels the game 'complete,' and we all move on with our lives. Which, yeah, it's one of the biggest and highest-quality porn games out there. Stick in a 'the end' frame, make a wedding scene with twenty or so possible lady-sprites in white dresses, and call it a day. I'd accept that. I think a lot of people would.

But for my money, I'd bet on option 2. There's likely to be an update within the next couple days, even a tiny one, just to forestall the possible fallout of this game actually getting labeled on f95 as abandoned. And then I'll probably play the game again because it's a good game, and that'll be completely fine.

 

[MisterMeh]

If you look closer, you'll see that people who are the supposed "DC apologists" are anything but. In fact, they'll tell you that they're looking forward to the abandoned tag just as much as the "DC negative Nancys" because they know that the tag doesn't mean squat. It also means that when the tag is posted, that those people will have to look for something else to whine about.

And we all know that they'll happily find something else, because they're only here for the negativity.

So bring on the abandoned tag so people can laugh at the ones who wanted it, knowing it did nothing.

 

[Mandragoron]

Wow just wow... so long nothing and now he will just bring parts of the update out... this update will never end...

 

[SonofOrion]

The abandoned tag is their god. They worship it and receive its divine messages, telling them to share its glory.
"Tell of my name so that others know of closure in the sea of sufferance." - ~ - Abandoned

Agreed. What will they do if they get what they want? And it is not really abandoned. D.C. still livestreams him working on it. They always neglect to say that.

 

[SonofOrion]

Is this game dead or what? This game used to be extremely popular and the dude pumped out updates monthly, but nothing for like 2 years now when he makes good money? I guess he moved on with life.

No, he still streams himself working on it.

 

[Ottoeight]

I WONDER WHY you guys who blame people who criticise DC because "free riders aren't allowed to talk" NEVER realised that this game has ALWAYS been PUBLIC AND FREE since day 1 in 2016.

That's the reason why SS's popularity immediately skyrocketed: being free and being one of the first Patreon funded projects back in 2016.

He always released public free updates ONLY. Then he decided to postpone free releases by ONE DAY.

 

[PayneToTheMax]

So you understand the Early Access model now.

I don't understand the anxiety surrounding the 'abandoned' tag by DC's apologists

Projection much?

 

[Xupuzulla]

Abandoned tag so close,bros
Can you feel it?
Is going to get wild soon.

yeah but it's not going to be there for long because DC is going to release partial tech updates (first it was pre tech updates, now partial tech updates, very nice) and he's going to drag this thing out for a year or more
