Pure fucking wisdom right here. Artists are not developers.
People scoff at management positions in companies, but whip-crackers are very essential for getting shit done. The fact that virtually all Patreon and subscription-based "companies" are very loosely organized and lack those whip-crackers is why they're all stuck in perpetual development-rework mire.
I personally lost all hope that this kusoge will be ever finished 3 years ago already. Boggles my mind why it's still so popular. A motherfucking "tech re-work" took 2 years or something?? AN ENGINE REWORK IN MOTHERFUCKING REN'PY; AN ENGINE THAT'S ALREADY PRE-BUILT???

I think most people scoff at management positions because a manager that didn't spend enough time in the work process is close to useless most of the the time. Like my father said he only had 1 boss who didn't know jack shit about what they were doing but when shit hit the fan he stepped in to protect my father's coworker for taking the blame.
Nonetheless I agree with you that management came into existence for a reason and is very important, it's just over time most things end up slowly decaying instead of a nice, quick end.

After all these years, Debbie can't get pregnant! I know there must be a lot of people who want to see her pregnant in the remake after all, the text has changed now!!

I'm thinking about replaying this after around 5 years. Could someone please enlighten me about the whole "tech updates" theme? So, he is basically:
  • releasing one update every 2 months to restore the original content
  • every LI will require at least one tech update, x3 for the main quest
  • for now only Debby's and Jenny's paths partially restored
So, at best its ~ (6 LI + 6 side characters) * 2 months + 10% delays = more than 2 years just to restore the original content. Am I correct?

With regards to pregnant milfs, I'm totally in agreement with you bud. Especially when it comes to getting Debbie pregnant.
But I think the reason that Debbie can't be impregnated is because it would interfere with the current story/game too much (her keeping the child and new content having to be built around her keeping and dealing with that child) or it would too out of character (her giving the child away to daycare when she's a stay-at-home mom that would definitely keep her child).

I also agree about getting all those teacher's pregnant as well. The dev's should also look into adding pregnant sex scenes into the game. It sucks that you can't have sex with a girl you've impregnated until she gives birth.

With regards to making Jenny actually love the MC, I'm all for it too but it has to be really hard to get. In other words, the player (and by extension, the MC) has to run through a lot of hoops to get Jenny to be affectionate and loving towards him.
This is simply because being mean and being a bitch is basically Jenny's entire personality and it should require a lot of work on the player/MC's part to change this.

Also, I think Debbie does finds out about the MC and Jenny's relationship when you impregnate Jenny.
Doesn't Debbie meet the MC and Jenny in the kitchen to talk about Jenny's pregnancy? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Now, I have to say no to your winter idea. The game is called Summertime Saga for a reason. Let's keep it that way.

Also I have to (for the time being) say no to your idea about more female characters (milfs and/or students) being added to the to the game. There are already so many characters that need their stories and content expanded upon: Melonia Rump, Iwanka Rump, Judith, Coach Bridget, Ronda, Annie, Principal Smith, Sara (Captain Terry's Wife), Lucy (Annie's mom), and Beth (Judith's mom).

I believe in quality over quantity. Let's do right by all the girls already in the game before we start adding more.

Lastly, although the idea of inviting girls over to your beach house for some sexy time is a good one. I think the game's story progression currently relies to heavily upon the Debbie and Jenny living at the main house. Thus, your idea about permanently moving them to the beach house is just to unreasonable and unrealistic.

Maybe if you finish Debbie's and Jenny's stories completely, you can move them to the beach house.
But, I'm forced to ask, why? The purpose of having the beach house is so that the MC has a place entirely of his own.
A place he can use to invite any girl he wants over and do whatever he wants without his mom getting in his way.

Screw it though, bro! It's your life!

You can ask the same about the likes of BaDIK. The updates for that one take an retardedly long time as well, but it's seemingly popular.

BaDik has never received more than 1 update per year. However, when it got an update, it was always a whole chapter, with many hours of gameplay and content that often includes all LI. The game had top quality from day one, and that has continued to this day. This developer has always delivered and does not deserve to be called a negative example

Except that he is also overly ambitious and with his current estimate, the game won't also be finished in ten years.

The problem is that as long as there are a lot of donors it will drag on, if the number decreased drastically it would certainly return to its previous rhythm.

I haven't paid attention to this game in years so I made the mistake of downloading this "tech update" only to discover after several hours of playing that it's lacking lots of content.

I don't feel like downloading and replaying the other version so guess I'll try again in a couple of years if it is finally up to date? :sleep:

To do that, you would need to know how big the game is actually planned. Only the developer himself knows that. We are now in Chapter 11 and they are all pretty big. Even Summer Time Saga wasn't that big before the tech update. Your comparison doesn't fit at all

I know a while ago it was at estimated 18 chapters. And the updates can be as chunky as they want, the wait time is still retarded. Nevermind being ugly as fuck, outdated DAZ shit.
