Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0-wip.5791] [Kompas Productions]

"Erm actually there are only 7 days left until it's abandoned, so you're wrong "

But really, what difference does a week make at this point? Going more than a year without any updates might as well mean it’s already been abandoned.

And let's be honest, we both know they’re not going to roll out that tech update in a week. If they release anything, it’s probably just to dodge the 'abandoned' label, since that would look pretty bad for DC.

What makes you think they would give a damn about this pirate site?

I mean you guys make fun of him but you keep coming here complaining and talking about the same thing over and over again. You're not really better than him. I just want this game to get the abandoned tag so people can finally stfu for a while.

Man, if only. The meme engines are already starting to rev up, and that faint rushing sound you hear is a thousand frustrated hornybois warming up their keyboards and getting ready to dunk on this thread. I predict no less than 15 pages of shitposting and pointing/laughing the day this gets the tag, and it will probably only get worse from there.

15 is being conservative, that's for sure. It's already about a page per day of keystroking their boards edging for the moment it gets flagged. Sadly they will all have bad takes, such as "I told you so" while ignoring the fact that most of us told them about expecting the flag, as well. Or those who said DC has a deal with F95 to never get the flag - who then change their tune without acknowledging their error when the flag hits. C'est la vie.

Maybe they should go out and simply have sex if they have that much energy.

Don't hate the player, hate the payer.

Darkcookie update on the stream:

"Working towards a partial tech update release in the near future"

This looks as the best solution.

I was going to say that someone posted his twitter message saying there was no stream today and was going to call your bluff. However, while there was no stream today, it does show him sharing a message in the Picarto chat:

Still, everyone should take this with a grain of salt... "near" is relative (hungry fans could think this means weeks while it is going to be longer than that) and DarkCookie is terrible at estimating workload requirements (do we need to remember that he initially thought it would only take a few months when he first pitched the idea of the tech update as a poll, whether to do it before or after the R(h)onda update?). I still wouldn't hold my breath for even a partial tech update release this year.

Of course it is going to be questioned immediately. Please dont drag me into it. I only posted what was posted there. I think they are trying to work on it as much as they can. DarkCookie done a lot of streams with a lot of cool drawings. I recommend to check that out.

I guess it depends on what he means by that and what's going to be included. Objectively it would make sense to release the tech update without all of the old non-rig-system art and to move forward from there on. Then again, it would exclude a lot of content - unless DC has reworked more assets behind the scenes than one would have thought.

Last but not least, it'll be interesting to see if those people who claim the tech update was pure vaporware and say that DC is never going to release another update are going to complain about the lack of content (of the update they said would never happen) anyway.

He mentioned some secret updates as a possibility. Of course we will see, nothing is certain at the moment. I think he decided to move with the partial relase, because he see how much work his team has with it. And he and the team are aware of the loong time it takes already.

 

[Belzaboo]

It would be very on the nose, but we could have an update just before the game's marked as Abandoned. It would also coincide with the monthly update and wallpaper showing he usually does, too.

Not in today's chat, he didn't. That was someone else making a prediction.

Well well well this flips the narrative that the abandoned tag has no affect on DC. The timing is to close to be a coincidence. Happened elsewhere just like this before. Making it even more unlikely to be just chance.

It does no such thing. Don't count your chickens before they hatch. Are you honestly saying you expect a partial release in 6 days in order to avoid a flag on F95? Honestly? Pass the hookah my way, I want some of what you're smoking.

No I am not going that far yet
All I am saying for now is that this latest development seems prompted by the closing deadline. There was nothing of this sort for a long time once his subs stabilised, just a steady pattern of wallpapers etc. Now this change is upcoming and we get this 'upcoming partial release'
I actually wasn't expecting any sort of reaction so soon, so this was a pleasant surprise. I was buying the narrative that he was too big to care about such things.
