I am not the one making your complaint... you are. I don't want to ignore many of the posts. There is a lot of misinformation, misunderstandings, and mistakes made in posts made by others and so I respond to them. It's as much of a form of entertainment as the game.
I haven't exchanged any money with any of the developers I have found on here. You do you and at the time you want to, for how long, and how much... or nothing at all. That's your choice. It's a game the developer makes available for free for everyone to download on their website. Supporters make that possible. If you support the developer's vision/work then feel free to leave a little something for them to show your appreciation, just like dropping a tip every so often into a busker's hat or guitar case who plays the same five songs on the street corner that you walk by on your way to work. But you aren't obliged to do so, nor are you expected to do so... by anyone, including the developer.
Nope, it wasn't supposed to be 3 updates per year. It has always been about releasing an update when they think it's ready.
That's a lot more downloads than I thought, but it's since the inception and the dev only pays for the "uncapped" download for Patreons - so ~30k people. He's not paying for petabytes annually.
Shouldn't take long to voice those few lines of text, right?
His download links on his website is
God, and can you imagine the whineage then... "But that's not how I think Debbie sounds when she moans!!!" and "Why can't we get Roxxy's V/O in this update, why did they do Eve first??"Shouldn't take long to voice those few lines of text, right?
Not quite, the Patreons get their own private servers (Where the cost would be) - everything else is on Mega / etc.
Look, I can tell you just want to be a contrarian (Petabytes? Absurd! --- The game is that popular? Poppycock! --- Provides bandwidth for everyone to download? Balderdash! --- Oh well, it only costs €215 / month, big deal). So, here, I'll agree with you - Yes, I know the average cost for 1 petabyte of bandwidth annually from Mega is about 215 euros per month. Some months it could be as low as 40-60 euros on their flex plan, but during peak times (such as during update releases) it can go over 1,000 euros. But, yes, on an average.
You was claiming high costs, even stating exabytes, and me calling that out isn't being contrarian.
Because it is his fulltime job probably,its either that or this guy is a complete idiot.
I never claimed high costs - I have always claimed costs, period. Costs that people don't consider when they start their whinging on and on about how much DC's Patreon account brings in. You called me out on petabytes, not my other claim of possible exabytes. The exabytes claim which I already admitted I made a mistake about because of doing the math in my head and misplacing zeros, at the same time standing my ground on petabytes. I showed my sources from how I got my estimates - you didn't refute them then once I showed you, but do so now. You didn't offer any sources or any numbers to refute. You keep moving the goal posts, I get it. I get it.
Projection is a terrible reflection of ones self-evaluation.
his answers are helpful, if people start reading old pages instead of taking and writing, Count Morado don't give constant explanations for the misinformation there is
I see you know a lot. I've been wondering for a long time where the Summertime Saga website's server is. I like the structure of the website, but I don't see the developer, the location. I have seen websites with a similar structure. The site must also allow adult content.
I'm at the beginning of the game. I saw that there are also new scenes in the technical upload. What's wrong with the scenes?
The tech update isn't released and is taking (so far) 4 to 8 times longer than initially expected. That is why it is considered a shitshow and pretty big embarrassment. There isn't expected to be new content in the tech update when it is released, but some new locations and some select reworked art - as well as the display ratio changed from 4:3 to 16:9. Read #10 in my FAQ here: #71,087 to find a link to what was originally planned and what the 29 May report says is the current status of the tech update.
The nameserver for both the public website and the supporter website (kompasproductions) is Cloudflare - and most likely at least one of the servers the website hosting service uses would be in the United States with redundancy servers in several other countries, as is usually the case with web hosting companies. The adult content that is seen in Summertime Saga is legal and allowed in many countries around the world, so hosting the site wouldn't be an issue. Anyway, the content
