Yes to all if these questions.

Incredible that nearly half the thread is now just "tech update" brainrot.

Five years ago:

I'd say there's a good chance you'll see Debbie pregnant once the update drops.

Pregnant Debbie is this a myth... sad but true

is still 98% of the already existing stuff missing?

You have the answer of your question like three posts ahead of yours.

 

[Falkfisch]

Yep...
And at the current rate of updates, it will probably take around 20 years until there is almost as much content as before the "TechUpdate"...
Come to terms with it, the game is practically dead...
It's a shame, I liked playing it...

I've been waiting for ronda update since I was in high school now I have a job

I built this PC a few months prior of the release of Cyberpunk 2077 because I knew my PS4 wouldnt handle that game. Summertime Saga was one of the first adult games I played on it(Didnt have a pc for quite some time). 5 years later and and the game has gone backwards in both quality and quantity. Motherfucker collects a paycheck while streaming himself drawing screensavers or something. All I wanted was finished routes of the three goth chicks with some more interaction between all of them. SS is abandonware at this point and its time to accept it.

Like there's 32,000 people paying for that Patreon. Absolute lowest amount of earned income is over $70k, highest puts it at around a quarter million dollars. $215,000 or so. This is why I dont feel bad pulling games off this site. Anything ever made under "early access" with a patreon link is always a long game scam.

One thing about DC is, he always changes his mind about what he wants to update, so yeah, not new.

Another thing, he always leaves progress at 80 something percent to trick people into thinking the next update will arrive soon.

I am stuck in Jenny route. I didn't speak with her at breakfast time. Who someone knows the solution?

Well, like it or not, he has been consistently releasing something every two months for a couple of releases now. So I don't think there's any huge trick there.

Well, and people who are subscribers for any length of time are well aware of the fucked up mess the old code was and the poor project management skills of DC that has led to the nearly 4 year tech update. They aren't tricking anyone, and if anyone thinks they are - those people are only tricking themselves.

Bottom line is game development is a mess - no matter what level of experience, size of team, and availability of resources. The fact that people can get games for free directly from the creators while under development should be seen as an opportunity by the players, instead of a penalty. They are seeing what they never saw before, the chaotic world of creativity and how it eventually (maybe) becomes a fully-fledged product.

Do I have to start again from zero? I've done that so many times before with this game that it put me off for life so I skip any game that has the requirement to start over every update.

Yes. Then you should skip.

Thanks Buddy! Appreciate it!

I have a theory (more like presumable reality) that once DC achieves economical milestone (or his supporters wake up from this obtuse lucid dream) - he will annouce a complete departure from the project and sell the rights or just shut down the development. It was a planned obsolescence all along imo. Obviously, this would trash DC notorious reputation even deeper, but he will change the name and comeback with another surface level scam or completely abandon video game industry as a developer. Either way, I agree SS is dead and following any sort of content about it will grow a long term resentment.
