It's going to be absolutely infuriating. He'll have a big new map with all these new/updated characters and you won't be able to do anything other than listen to their canned lines and then sit on the railroad tracks of the one or two characters that'll release with it. 95% of their routes will be identical to the game we already have, with maybe a few fresh sets of animation and poses on already-existing scenes.
Someone's going to have to take a hard look at the code when the first one version comes out, because I have a sinking feeling it'll release without any of the fancy new additions and will just be a linear set of A -> B -> C quests that a competent coder could throw together in like a week. Also, does anyone else see the cruel irony in announcing that they want to "aim for a release cadence of roughly 2 months" for new characters? It's the same development schedule as 2016! Why the hell didn't they do that in the first place?!

Just do it man there's absolutely no reason to wait if the reason you're waiting is for more content/whenever the game gets "finished" since that will take years, and i think no matter which perspective you ultimately take on this development saga the time passed speaks for itself.
I think it's an infinite project at this point, since the main stuff got done ages ago, and the way i see it everything since then is just people paying for dlcs, or rather the promise of dlcs. With the proven track record and incentive I'm guessing that this could continue for at least another 4 years, before the team runs out of stuff they can throw into it.
Anyone wanting to play or replay this game should just do so and consider what's there for the complete experience, and then on a yearly basis come back to this thread to kek and see if anything's changed.
You struck a deeper cord than you know. LOTS of essential past content has to be permanently removed IF the TU/Remake even happens at all and I hold strong: that's a big IF.
It's because of Patreon's latest dive into mental illness with regards to which fantasies are correct and which are not correct and will get you banned with any retort summarily suppressed (it already happened to a lot of major titles in the past few months).
Patreon's Fantasy Police is now out to protect from any exposure to an incorrect representation of consent in fantasies. Consequently, SS now runs a major risk of being insta-banned right after their first TU release.
An essential part of what made SS hot was how MC conquered his bratty sister. He basically keeps pushing her and even though she formally rejects him (i.e. NO CONSENT), she's eventually betrayed by her own desires and submits to his insistence and big dick. That's now more than reason enough to be banned.
Quick rundown (from years old memories) of violations of Patreon-consent:
- Any spying on sis/mom/neighbors/etc. via telescope, via slightly opened doors, via holes in the roof, etc.
- Stealing underwear without consent
- Giving any pills to anyone without consent
- Any moves during sex that go beyond conservative and weren't explicitly consented to beforehand: e.g. slapping ass, breaking cuffs to go turbo mode, cumming inside, initiating sex while he/she sleeps, putting dick inside even though he said "just rubbing", etc.
An impossibly difficult issue is everything that has to do with the highschool setting:
- Teachers making pets out of students? => ban.
- Teachers fucking students? => ban.
- Highscool applied to the above? => turboban.
The whole highschool setting needs to be removed. What will even be left?
Without the above SS will go from a funky vanilla with some spice (as far as I'm concerned) down to... I don't even know what to call it. There are telenovelas with much hotter content daily watched by hundreds of millions of normal school girls, I can guarantee that.
However, NOT butchering SS to make it compliant with westoid 21st century (a)sexuality means a ban is practically guaranteed due to the massive wave of complains the woke will raise to make a point out of the #1 game on the platform.
As I explained a few weeks ago, DC's best strategy to milk max. $ for min. work from what's left of SS would've been to just ignore everything and keep performing his busy theater as he did for the past 3+ years. We don't know why he failed to keep the scam going like that. Maybe too many paypigs switched their monthly tributes to $1.
His best strategy is still is to delay the TU as much as possible because trust me, if he manages to start a remake with only correct fantasies, you don't want to play that. Nobody does.
Oh and also, there was no work on any engine or anything like that. Not only will we all be able to show it by decompiling TU and exposing the fraud but even the most brain dead will be able to see it because, AGAIN, SAVES WILL NOT WORK across releases. You can bet on that.

I said something similar in a review of mine of one of his games, it's not that I don't like RPGM games. The key is, I don't like bad games and it's just veeeeery easy to make a bad game in RPGM, even if the art is great. *cough* Warlock and Boobs *cough*

At the end of the day people still really like Summertime, otherwise they wouldn't have any investment in it in the first place. I think its fine to be invested in a game, even if its porn, just don't become obsessive over it I guess.
There's some good 2D games out there but I have yet to find one that's better than StS. I'd like to hear some suggestions from you.

It’s funny how Strayerror can’t close a single coding task but can shoot the shit with the other devs in DC’s stream talking about sports and dental dams.

Fair play. Summertime was one of but not the first game I played from this site. Before that I had played some Japanese adult VNs.
This game generally still holds up, I just think others outdo in the graphics department.
Here's some I like, What A Legend (Similar dev cycle as this right now), Our Red string (traced 2d art), Aurelia (pixel art but better gameplay), four elements trainer (about the same as SS if you like the avatar anime).
Null Hypothesis the Xmen parody has good reviews but I haven't got round to playing it yet.
From the mentioned VNs, Euphoria is still memorable because of its extreme but good story. Fate Stay was a great VN but barely has any h scenes.
Well, if you start a fuss about DS being a lying asshole and wait a bit, one of his shill will come and convince you, that (here you roll 1d2):
1 - the game is completely complete with all further updates being just a pleasant bonus.
2 - devs are working hard and updating daily, just don't release stuff coz of intense testing. Just wait a little bit. Just a little bit.

I have never seen your second point being commented here non-ironically. I don't think there is anyone defending DC and saying that.

I recognize all those games except Euphoria, I really like Aurelia although it's a bit light on content, and WaL has a great setting and cool art but feels stiff and unfortunately isn't animated IIRC. The other ones I could take or leave, even as a huge Avatar fan lol
I dont know, Summertime Saga is just the best 2D game out there for me. It's not perfect but it has a vibe that makes it fun to make progress around the sandbox, and I think the art and characters, while not perfect, are great. There's also a lot of content and its animated for the most part.
The games from Siren's Domain are kind of in the same ballpark, and Demon Deals, while not for everyone because of the exaggerated bodies, captures the same feel.
Sorry for yapping lmao
