Yeah that can be true... its maybe an issue to overcome that hurdle to make a posting which shows that not much work on the game is done... but regardless, even bad news are still news, and many supporters appreciate an honest and active DEV, i sure do... even if he needs a lot of time for development. Overall, i dont think it can make any harm and to be radio silent is much worse. But well, yeah... to say its "easy" to post a weekly DEV-report was maybe a bit too far.

I do not disagree with you. I totally agree (& I'm sure Hopes would) that comms is a crucial part of a business' success.
But, context matters.
As I said, if he was trying to run a business, then absolutely.
If he's just doing it as a hobby & has other things taking up his time, so has nothing to report, then no need to & possibly no desire to.
If you came home after a long day at work, then had to deal with some personal stuff for a couple of hours, would you really be thinking "Oh, I must go online and post an update to tell everyone I've not done anything with my hobby"?
Honestly, it would be the last thing on my mind.
Personally, I'd prefer that the author use that time towards creating something, than use it to tell people they've not had time to create something.

With Faerin & Talothral, that's 3, out of hundreds.
I think we can definitely agree that it's an exception.

Luna & Gracie's father's name is Lucan.Is he calling JJJ84?
As from my memory and understanding Lucian (I think) is the father of Gracie and Luna, as well is Lady Cordia her mother. For Antonio, Cordia is his mother, but he could have another father than Gracie and Luna, although no proof for either are given yet.
As for the rest, I agree.
Only Antonio, there's question marks as to who his father is (given Angelo's remarks about his father in the Straffan mission).

Well, Hopes did say goal (but not set ETA) for the upcoming update will be 9th this month (couple of days remaining).
Let's just hope that he can meet this goal and nothing impedes him from it.

That's really interessting, so if Antonio were to die, Luna wouldnt auto inherit the position like let's say in the John Wick universe, if her mother were to pass away ? And from how I read it, it would even be possible for a non Deluca to be the Don/Donna of the Deluca family, even though there still is a legit Deluca of age in the family ?

He did mentor Cordia, didn't he ? So maybe he has already passed the test of not grabbing or holding on to power at any costs. And my memory might be playing tricks on me, but to me it seems in that last episode that Wilfred wants less responsibilities and actually solely focus on grooming the younglings, I think that's how he's called them.
My mistake was prob that whenever someone speaks to Luna and Gracie, even though one is a capo ? and the other one is nothing, they both get treated with the same respect, so I just always figured people dont wanna piss of their potential future bosses.

He did, indeed. That's a fair point, but perhaps he had no desire for the power back then, or thought Cordia would be better suited for it, than him.
Now, with time & age, he could feel as if he's owed.
More importantly, I don't think he believes that Luna or Gracie are ready for the role.
IDK, personally I don't think Wilfred wants to be the don, but I cannot rule it out, either.
If Cordia & Antonio both died, there would be no-one higher ranked than Wilfred.
Consigliere is generally 3rd in power - 1. Boss (capomandamento), 2. Underboss (sottocapo), 3. Consigliere, 4. Serpent, 5. Capo, 6. Soldato.
Luna is a low-tier capo. See here.
She has less claim than the Serpents, in terms of experience & rank.
Only her position as daughter of the donna raises her claim. Which also accounts for what you noticed, with people treating them both with respect.
Gracie is not a Family member, so has no rank, yet.

First thank you for taking the time to explain all of that to me, I really appreciate it.
From what you explained to me I understood the ranking system, but where does 'daughter of the don' rank ? Is it just below Wilfred, because other than Cordia, Antonio and Wilfred even the Serpents seem to stand at attention whenever one of the girls is around. Is that one of those "only Hope knows" thingies ? Damnit now im really curious if a Serpent could order Luna around or vice versa...this is gonna drive me mad...
Now this confuses the hell out of me, doesn't that suggest that Luna's rank is 'daughter of the don" and that it supercedes any personal achieved rank on her own merit like her capo title ?

The models aren't aesthetically pleasing to your taste?!?!? Surprising!! Do you like furries per chance?

Pleasure mate. Glad it helped!
Her official position is daughter of the don, same as Gracie's (despite her not being ranked in the Family hierarchy), which commands respect from her Mother's position.
Her own Family rank is Capo (low-tier), but she is not as highly ranked in that regard as Caterina (mid-tier), the rollerskate capo.
So she is underneath Serpents, in the Family hierarchy, she's underneath Caterina, too.
But, because she's daughter of the donna, no-one is going to treat her with disrespect, as that would also be disrespectful towards Cordia.
Officially, a Serpent has the superiority of rank to order her around.
But, because of her being the daughter of the Donna, I expect that they would only pull rank to protect her, or their mission (if they thought she was jeopardising it, or something).

You know we should force developers to have a working wiki page with all kind of background info before they are allowed to post a game herePleasure mate. Glad it helped!

Just like the Mass Effect codex or something. Thank you again !

That's a start ! But there is no secret info on there, right ? Like Hope should totally take a day and add some nice background info, after all character building is in my opinion his biggest strength.Not official, but:

When I played the last update I literally said to myself "Man, I wish the update would have one less gracie sex scene and instead Antonio with a sixpack in his hand, knocking on the door of the MC's room and say 'let's go outside, have a few beers and get to know eachother' ". Like that doesnt take many renders, right ? 5-6 tops and then Antonio could talk about the pressures of being the heir apparent and how it is to grow up in this environment and how it felt to deal with the fallout of what happened to Luna and his dad and so on and on. Hope could totally knock that shit out of the park !!!
Or Wilfred knocking in the MC's door saying "come with me, we have to pick something up" and then he could talk about how he got started in the buisness and stuff during the drive.
But nooooooo, all Hope cares about is Pussy ... sigh ...

As do some others, Kronos Time Titan comes to mind - but it is indeed a minority.
Mass Effect has the Codex, Elder Scrolls the lore books, Fallout 4 a wiki, DeLuca a JJJ - there are different ways to achieve thisYou know we should force developers to have a working wiki page with all kind of background info before they are allowed to post a game here
Can't speak to that, I didn't start playing until near the end of act 1 but since act 2 started every time I continue my save it's been within 3 days of a month since I last played.Good shout with The Seven Realms, great game.
Not sure about Ataegina, though. I know it's been pretty frequent since Act II began, but I'm thinking I remember waiting more than a single month for numerous updates during Act I.
Could be my memory playing tricks.
Is that a definite thing, it's consistently been 1 month?

I haven't played this since MARCH, I come back, update it to the current version, and still cannot even start My Name Is Luna, even though I finished chapter 9 LONG ago.
I went to her room at noon EVERY day of the week, and still nothing, I have ALL the special equipment from the jobs, so WHAT am I missing here??
