I mean, they don't give release dates, so how can it be "a few days late"? My understanding is that they used to give a release date, and when they were a couple days late, people would lose their shit. And they don't actually charge for the game, it's free for everyone.
Well, they did start to clean up already. As far as I'm aware Dogeek should have finished recoding Erik's/Mrs. Johnson's story and more will certainly follow.
That was more an example on when you should use an ETA and when not,its something natural,like knowing your limits and respect it,clearly when you try to surpass your limit when you cant focus yourself on doing that you are fated to face the conquences...
Actually it will be 4 months in one week. Check the release date on the 1st page. Dec 20, 2107
That too. Still no developer would make a game unless he gets paid. This is business. Pure and simple. The game is free for everyone until there are enough people supporting him and the support keeps on increasing. All I am saying is I have been seeing a lot of developers taking deadlines for granted. That shouldn't be the case.
Absolutely. No arguments there. This is not to be expected from a developer who has been on this project for such a long time. If you are a few days late I am sure people would understand. But no matter how big the update is going to be, if you are months late, people are going to be pissed off, especially the people who are paying for it.
I was just trying to keep it modest haha.
That would be good,it would appease some of the less patient people and refresh everyone's hope on seeing the game complete on their lifetime...joke's aside they should put every storyline related content as soon as possible,and leave variables like minor characters without real relativity to the main line on hold(as much as it hurts me saying,if it where possible to see the game near completion before 2020 i could patiently wait for pregnancy or Judith content)
I have to say I'm not really sure about that. As long as the game is popular there is actually room to implement side stories and side characters and I personally fear that DC is much more likely to move on once the game is basically finished and more content is optional, while support is likely to decrease in that case as well. He has been talking about his future projects for quite some time and while I'm sure that he's really comitted to SS I'm not sure how that is going to look once the game is more or less done.
Hey bro dont be like that,we're having a civil talk here,while waiting for the release,its not like this talk would do more than the ones on patreon or discord,and while not intentionaly,every talk about the game will sooner or later lead to the development of the same...
Well, to be fair there is a certain amount of news to discuss given that DC basically said today that a full Roxxy update could take as long as the teachers and that he'll likely make another patreon poll to see if people prefer one or two updates (didn't follow the stream all the time but that's as far as I got it).
Cool,lately i cant watch his streams cuz they usually occur during my worktime,so i'm kinda out the loop of his recent streams....
Many of you fail to recall, that he mentioned months ago, when he started the teacher route, the he was only going to produce 1 at a time to meet monthly updates, but his patreons and many here, voted to do all 4 instead, which he said at the time, would take much longer, and most everyone supported that decision, yet now you complain simply for your own recollection failure.
Just so you know I didnt voted for it neither agreed with idea,it was way risky and would take too long...
Even if it takes quite some time, not releasing many update does make a lot of sense as long as save games aren't usable. Splitting his updates in monthly-ish releases would certainly be possible but I can totally understand that quite a few people are actaully against it. Playing one large update for 60 minutes and more is just a lot more satisfying than getting those usual 15 to 20 minute updates a lot of other devs deliver. If you add the fact that almost nobody wants to replay the game every time again and again you end up with people voting for really bad release schedules.
The problem comes up that we have a cyclical pattern that hasn't been stopped. The release dates are ALLLLLLLL the way back on page 480 and this makes the 15th+ cycle of the production values/time taken to get out a release.
