See: 80,595 #5 in "General FAQ"

Which version are you asking if you should play? v0.20.16 - no because saves are not compatible to v21.0.0 due to nearly all new code and variables. v21.0.0-wip.5003? If you want to - it's only got partial content compared to v0.20.16, but as time goes on, it will catch up (and they are adding little scenes here and there that are not in v0.20.16)

Or you can wait until the tech update is finished - whenever that will be with their roughly bi-monthly updates.
Okay thanks a lot, I had no idea there was this split / partial content situation. I guess I'll have to wait :(

To be fair, the animations of the existing stuff have been greatly improved.

If the pace continues like this (and according to the original agenda DC is already lagging) the tech update will be done around the end of March 2025.
Do you guys think there's no chance the pace of the tech update speeds up or will it be for sure after March 2025.

Does anyone know what excuses his paypigs are using to justify the “new content”. I dont want to pay to access the Patreon or discord.

They aren't paying for new content. The game is free from the developer's website to anyone who has access to the Internet. Subscribers get other benefits. That may be why you're confused.

Why should DC speed up the process? Every month is raking in insane amounts of money. March 2025 is just my estimate. Have a look at the agenda and calculate for yourself: An update is scheduled every other month. The next one will come out end of September, then end of November, January 2025, March 2025 and so on. Depending on how much DC and team will pack into one update it might be March, May, July or later.

I just want to note that the game has been in development for over 8 years. 8 years. EIGHT. YEARS.
I actually really like the game, but holy fucking fuck.

And you can expect it to be in development for at least 8 more years because DC has ideas of adding over 100 (even over 200) more non-player characters to the game, with events for the player to interact with them.

Well because I was thinking it was just porting, and he may have developed a process and implementing it could go faster and faster. That being said it looks like he's actually adding a lot of new content in each update, not just a port, which makes waiting worth it I guess.

So as someone new to this thread, let me get this straight as I ain't reading 4k goddamn pages of posts:

The original game is finished (or as finished as it can be), but there's a new updated version missing most of the content of the original release as it's perpetually in development hell?
