but let's be objective. He was wrong, he shouldn't gave false hope to his patrons.

Gotta love how you say "lets be objective" then throw down a load of opinion.... learn the meaning of your words bud.

For the most part those arguing "in favor of Uber" are basing their arguments on available facts (this is called being objective, this is the philosophocal stance where you try to distance yourself from your emotions and focus on logic).

while those arguing "against Uber" are coming from a mostly emotional place, ie feeling betrayed, false hope etc, this is called being opinionated and while this doesn't necesseraly mean they are wrong, it does make it harder for them to win arguments when they fill their posts with ambiguous phrases like

• " he shouldn't gave false hope ",
  Nobody "gives" hope, hope is an emotional state that is a reflection of your imagination.
  Uber might have inspired you to feel this way through his words, but you need to tell us what those words were for this to be anything but meaningless drivel.
• " uber gave uncertain promises "
  There is no such thing as an uncertain promise, a promise is certain by definition, the word you I think you are looking for is "estimate". And quite frankly even if he made promises, shit happens, lines need to be redrawn from time to time. If you want to convince people he was being unreasonable you need to provide specifics:
  • What did he promise
  • How was the promise broken
  • Were explanations given
  • How often did it happen

Your problem isn't that people are "defending" Uber, it's that people aren't blindly accepting your opinion as gospel.

PS.
I am not defending Uber I don't know him, he could be a saint or he could be the devil, I don't know, most likely he is something inbetween, I am arguing against trolls, and yes I know you probably don't consider yourself a troll, but until you learn the meaning of your words and what facts are, that is exactly what you are.

Who thinks Game Dev is a simple job is a fool. When you do it alone it normally combines 3-4 learned full time jobs in one. But there a tools and ways to make it work out at a small scale even alone or with a very small team like all this wonderfull projects on this site show.

Ii agree with you that this job has aspect's where you can come into a crative blockade, that does not give them a freepass to anything. It's importent how they tackle this situations. Most other person with a creative job still has to make stuff even when they have a blockade. Sure it wont be there masterpiece but sometimes "good" has to be good enough.

So i ask you the counter question what do you expect from a Game Dev that has a creative Blockade like any other artist but does not have to work on it because like you said the money train keeps driving?

This one here shows the clear typical signs.
Delays over Delays for so called "Mega Updates" where i already stated in another post what i think about those.
The Dev lies about going back to the old smaller updates.
Pushing in more side characters while so much others still lack any content.
and the list goes on...

I love this Game for it's art and writing. But how it is now it tends more and more to the Milfy City, Estate Dominate etc. you name them side.

Meanwhile there are for example Dev's like Blue Axolotl. He's also a full time Dev and caters to a much more niche taste. So he has much less attention and support but still managed to push out 5 COMPLETED games. And i mean really finished high quality stuff that got better from Game to Game. He always delivered in the end. Never lied. But still struggles atm and had to pause his main project because he could not affort to pay the art for it anymore.

So yeah i don't expect from Game Dev's anymore than from anyone else. There actions just determine which one of them i support.

To put it simply, the answer to your counter question. I would expect communication about what the road blocks are for that Dev. Like I said I agree with some of the criticism , but I am not a patreon so I can't tell the Dev this in the place where it counts(the pocket book). I don't think most of the ones making counter arguments don't agree there are issues. As I have said many times now it is the way these arguments are presented in a forum where we are trying to hold conversations such as this one. For my part I have never directly said the criticisms leveled at Uber where not legitimate complaints I have said many times to be clear and use facts if you can't use facts then couch the arguments as "this is my opinion". I am never going to call out an opinion. People have them so do I and I never expected everyone to agree with my opinions.

Uberpie is a team of three Uber who does almost all of it, Lostraven who writes most of it now and a proof reader. I am not familiar with the Dev you are talking about but it sounded like he has an artist , can we agree that is a major time consumer as far as games go? Is that Dev using drawings or is he using Daz or equivalent? Are we comparing apples to apples? I can't answer these questions because I don't know. I think you have done what you felt was right for you in dropping your support but can you really be upset that other contributors didn't do that?

Seems like staying on the inside where your complaints may sway a critical mass is about the only way to actually achieve change. This would be different if Uberpie was still active in this thread then it makes a lot of sense. Of course that means spending money and I understand the conundrum if you keep paying you are supporting bad behavior if you stop contributions you lose the ability to sway the people that really can help make the changes you would like to see. I guess it comes down to commitment , how important is achieving your goal of change.

Guys ! Guys! You all miss the point, where is the update ?!

Are we there yet, No
Are we there yet, No
Are we there yet, No
Are we there yet, No

We will get there when we arrive , no one knows exactly when that will be.

Here's my take - it's my own, and nobody else's.

We don't know what goes on in the daily lives of those who create games. Things happen - just like in our own lives and our own jobs and obligations. But everything in life depends upon everything else. Uber has kept patrons up to date with mostly regular posts on patreon about new scenes, characters, and the like. Sometimes he posts a hope or an intent, and fans latch onto words and paint them as promises - when the words are nothing more than an aspiration that sometimes (more often than not, in all of our lives) takes a bit longer than expected.

I hope you are right and i'm just misreading the "signs" even though it happened exactly the same way so many times before.

Whatever it is in the end let's stop this and make place for the "Update when" posts again^^

Ah yeah if you speak from the devil...

Woop Woop Hypetrain!

Did the nagging work for once or is Moxence Uber in disguise?

 

[Deleted member 568526]

I would not get to hyped judging from the first sentence which can be read with out unlocking the post they are still working on the update.

Guys I'm stuck on jessica quest. Second time you visit her I can't do anything in the house except click on things that are downstairs. I also bought the mint to replace birth pill but cant find the birth pill.

We will see once a Hero arrives.

Whatever it is we will do what this site teaches us already for so long and wait a little longer.

Hopefully it is not another "end of the month delay but we are working on it" post to keep the Patreons patient before the Patreon receipts come in tomorrow.

Evil Tounges could say that is intended *Kappa*

Can't really argue with that , will just have to wait and see if we can entice a Hero to post the update here.

Not sure exactly why you are stuck bu the birth control pills are upstairs in one of the drawers under her bed.

 

[Roveredo]

Its coming out next week.

 

[Viron99]

I clicked all the drawers but cant find anything. I think there is suppose to be a scene that play when u enter the house?

 

[bobofthebush]

We will need to see what the post says but I, for one, don't really see what the issue is. He puts up a post which broadly (i'm paraphrasing as i can't be bothered to look back and find the exact wording) says they are nearly there, soon going to do testing and polishing, hope to have it early March.

We get an update from Lostraven, in or around early to mid March, just been given 32 more pages to write, new material, not a re-write. Didn't think this was going to take a genius to figure out that, on polishing the game, he's adding in new bits to make it flow better.

Get the update from lostraven it is done, back into polishing and testing, get another update, adding in a few other bits here and there. Clear progress being made, decent updates from Lostraven, all good.

From another post from Lostraven it implies, but is not stated, that they are through the first part of testing and waiting for more.

now he posts on patreon, says needs a bit more time. time between posts on patreon a little over two weeks, which i don't think is shabby

[Viron99]

Yea i didn't get the scene when you enter the house. Probably because i bought the the mint way too early .

 

[kafezinhu]

dont know if its legit but it was on discord

Apologizes for the radio silence; we are still working hard on the latest update and would like to thank everyone for their patience.

This update has taken a bit longer than expected, but we can now confirm the update will finally be out next week.

This update has proven very challenging for us, with a lot of technical overhauls often resulting in a lot of wires tangling up, so to speak, coupled with a lot of the art being overhauled, it has taken us far longer than we anticipated, but we are finally at the end of a long road and will deliver the update very soon.

Thank you all for your support so far,

We appreciate your commitment to the project and hope the update will prove worth the wait.

Any word on if the neighbor lady through the fence, the one with the huge dildo up her ass, is planned to get more content? I'd almost forgotten she was in the game until I was glancing at the title picture here on F95's TT page today and was reminded she exists.
