I guess the band Suicidal Tendencies and their song "Institutionalized" is before your time.

It's after my time.

Kind of during my time, had a record of them but got tired of it quite quickly. So no, I didn't pick up on the quote which seems relevant I admit.

There are people who get too annoyed about it, but not everyone who is annoyed by someone being lazy and not reading the thread is being a "fanboy." It annoys people cause its similar to cutting in line. People who are already in line got in line before the line cutter. They were not lazy. Line cutter wants to be lazy and cut in line making people wait more. Effecting the day of those in line behind the line cutter. People who come into a thread like this and asks "any news on an update" or "is this abandoned" are being lazy when all they have to do is go back a page or two. Maybe more. I do that every thread of a game I wonder about. No matter if its a game I have not played. (Wondering what people think about it) Or if its a game i have played and wondering about an update so i search the thread or even check to see if can deduce or get info from the dev's patreon. Its alll about being lazy not just fanboys annoyed cause someone does not love a game as much as them.

Thing is, I know you say it's their attempt at being lazy, but I don't believe it's a successful attempt.
At the end of the day, it's much quicker & easier to type a word, or phrase, into the search bar & press return, than it is to type out a whole question in the thread, then start replying to/arguing with people who respond.
So, if they're not actually being lazy, then that only leaves them seeking attention the only way they know how, by being antagonistic.
Sad life. Don't feed the trolls has never been more appropriate.

Did I miss something or can you not do anything with Cordia? Just beat the entire thing so far l, and I see she has a spot in the gallery but nothing came up aside from her wearing somewhat revealing clothes after confronting you in her office.

Well, people being lazy also means they don't think ahead. There is a lot of ways being lazy can indeed increase your workload, and a lot of those ways I see being enacted in everyday life. I am not even excluding myself here.

No, you did not miss anything, Cordia's storyline hasn't really started in that regard yet.

Dude then just dont reply them. What i find funny is that people go on a 200 word rent about someone asking about the next update instead of just ignoring or wrinting a short message like. "Dev said in a few weeks" or "no infos yet"

Those bunch are like fucking candles...ignoring them for long might end up burning this town hall down.

My cat does that to me sometimes...I guess I could try ignoring people...can't make any promises though.

Edit : Then the facepalm pours in....

Some are trying to make work go away by educating people how to solve their own problems so future work will be reduced. Just answering a question is just the kind of lazy that may end up more of a burden than a relief.

Calling a troll a troll is belittling.

Emmmm .... is this game still going or was it abandoned? anyone knows? last update was really long ago...

I know a lot of people me included will commit seppuku if the game gets "abandoned" before we
have a chance to romance one of the most beautiful woman ever to grace a video game.

Cordia..

Mr Hope is a gentleman and would never deprive oh so many of us to bask in her beauty and allure.

This masterpiece is like a fine wine. You can't rush it.

I get why this game is special and i have enjoyed it. But cmon... the devs have been taking a bit of a piss lately. We get 1 update or two a year if we are extremely lucky and even then it contains like 10 minutes of gameplay tops. In the beginning the updates were quite frequent and packed with content. Now we are just getting blue balled to the extremes. I really hope they can find a way to make updates more frequent without sacrificing quality and give us what we have all been waiting for years.

If the next update includes "10 minutes of gameplay tops" I would tend to agree. The last one however did way more than that, especially if we use the word "gameplay" as in "actually playing a game" with the new contract system. But also the extra story bit was way more than 10 minutes.

However, it was quite short. Which was on the other hand announced all the time since next to the introduction of the new gameplay the whole programming framework was redone. This does not help the player directly so was hardly visible.

Well as Carta said above, v0.07 would feel short (though I still think it's longer than 10 mins) if you opted to play "Just Story + FreeRoam" only (since Visual Novel mode is not available yet), and decided not to play the "Full Experience" mode which has the newly implemented contacts gameplay in it.
But this was already told by Hopes before the release saying "there will be 2 events along with the contracts" so it's not like this was any surprise (at least to the folks who have been following the game's progress).

Upcoming update is the season finale, and it's gonna have 1 Luna event + 5 Gracie events + 1 season finale story event + misc so it's gonna be pretty chunky (and Hopes is hard at work towards it).
He also said this year, his plan is to release them more with quicker releases.
So I guess all we can hope that they all get released as he plans; faster releases but still having the same quality that he always did before.
