From the Patreon post about 14.5:
- Sister, Mom and Diane gameplay flow being re-coded using a new method that is less bug-prone and more flexible.
- New Sister story content, cut-scenes, events and h-scenes.
- Improved Sister ending with better closure.
- New content surrounding the sister (Somrak, Mom).
- Somrak quest line with panties reworked
- Improved gameplay mechanics
This makes 14.5 seem much farther away than the ~3 weeks implicitly expected for a .5 release. Was there any talk about when 14.5 should be expected?
Venting a little:
While other games spread themselves too thin with major branches receiving little content with each release (e.g. BB, Dual Family), SS has a never ending stream of paper thin characters, which is a majorly frustrating turnoff because they could've spent that talent time in way WAY better ways.
I would love if they would just stop progressing the story. Instead, start hunting for writers and meanwhile (for 2-3 months):
- Use the talent to improve the quality of existing animations (e.g. triple the available frames, add details, rework frames produced lazily by simply dragging and skewing the previous image)
- Extend the existing scenes a little bit
- Correct retarded inconsistencies like having mom in the shower and her room at the same time, seeing things through the telescope that are not there, etc.
- LAST BUT NOT LEAST, start caring about wasting everyone's time. It's so ridiculously unreasonable to grind through 8 hours of replay for 30 mins of new content. At the absolute very least, remember which texts have been displayed before and keep the ability to fast forward through them with CTRL. This last one doesn't require the ability to resume from saves so you keep ability to change the story but it would save a lot of time for anyone actually caring enough to check out each release.
